INSURANCE RATE
HAS BEEN RAISED
IN SOME INSTANCES OVER 100
PER CENT ON MAIN STREET
PROPERTY.

The insurance rates of a majority
of the business houses on Main
street have been materially increas-
ed within the past year owing to
what the companies claim to be de-
fective pumping facilities at the city
lake. They claim that it is absolute
ly necessary that another pump be
installed of a million and half gal
Ions capacity at once and have made
the following recommendations: In
stall an electric driven pump of a
million and a half capacity, also a
steam driven pump of the same size
and have them so arranged that a
motor or steam drive either pump or
both, pumps to be provided with IA
inch suction mains and discharge
through 14-inch suction line into force
main.
place boilers stack and feed
pumps in good condition.
Provide boiler room with ventila-
tor.
Install standard two way hydrant
in pump house yard to contain two
100 foot lengths of hose with noz-
zles.
Adopt approved buildings laws
and electrical ordinance and enforce
them. The companies claim that the
city is defective in these matters
and as a result were compelled to
raise the rate of insurance, in some
instances the raise was but a trifle,
while in others it has more than
doubled.

Sugar Consumption in United States.

Sugar Consumption in United States.
The people of the United States
consume half their own weight in su-
gar every year. This may seerl a
startling statement, but if we take
the quantity of sugar produced in
the United States and add to this
the quantity brought from our own
islands and the quantity imported
from foreign countries, and subtract
therefrom the amount exported, we
get a grand total of considerably
more than seven billion pounds con-
sumed in the country; and by divid-
ing the population into this grand
total, we get an average Of 81 IL
pounds per capita, speaking in round
terms, for 1910, and about a like
quantity for 1909 1t is not assumed,
of course, that each person necessari-
ly consumes sugar equal to one.half
his individual weight; 6ut taking the
total consumption and comparing 1t
with the total population in the sec
ton known as continental United
States, the average yearly consump-
ton of sugar is found to be about
81 1-2 pounds per capita.
In fact, the people of the United
States are larger consumers OF sugar
per capita than those of any other
country of the world except England,
for which the latest figures show a
consumption averaging Sc pounds per
capita, against our own average of
81 1-2 pounds per capita. The next
largest per capita consumption is in
Denmark, II S-4 pounds; followed by
Switzerland, Ga pounds; Sweden, "a
pounds, and Germany and Holland,
each about 43 1-2 pounds.
Not only is the United States the
second largest sugar consumer per

JUDGE HENDRICKS
MAY MOVE HERE
RUMOR HAS 1T THAT PRESENT
STATE SENATOR WILL BECOME
RESIDENT OF ARDMORE.

1t has been rumored that Judge c.
B. Kendrick, now of Davis, will soon
remove to Ardmore and open up a
law office in this city.
Judge c. B. Kendrick lived in this
city seventeen years ago and carried
his professional card in the Ardmore-
ite at that time. He was law part
ner of Hon. A. Eddleman, now of
Marietta, and later was partner of
Hon. J. c. Graham, of Jim Crow
fame, also now of Marietta.
Judge Kendrick is the senator from
this senatorial district, composed OF
Love, Murray and Carter counties.
His term lasts for four years, and al
though a new member of that body,
he has distinguished himself as a
good lawyer and a statesman, and is
one of the most energetic, hardwork-
ing and prominent members of that
body. He is recognized as one of the
leaders of the senate, and his dis
trict appreciates the splendid record
he is making.
Judge Kendrick is one of the lead
ing lawyers of this state and his re
moval here will add to the strength
of the Ardmore bar, which is already
considered as one of the ablest ba"a
in this state.
