The Commercial Club Would
Have Plant Formerly Used
by Richmond Mfg. Co. for
Such a Purpose.
WOULD BE BOON TO
SMALL BUSINESSES
Building Is Large One and
Many Concerns with Small
Capital Could Be Operated
Within 1t.

\ proposition to interest the Ow-
ners of the factory building formerly
occupied by the Richmond Manufac-
ond street and the Pennsylvania rail-
road, in permitting the use of the
building as an industrial plant" for
the purpose of furnishing quarters for
men who wish TO engage in business
or manufacturing work on small
scale, is now before the Commercial
club. The proposal has been favora-
bly, received and its feasibility will
be thoroughly investigated. At least
one prominent member CT the club
has taken an active interest in the
matter. on the grounds that it would
be very valuable commercial asset
to the city to have quarters, thoroug-
ly equipped for small business, which
could not operate if the customary eX-
pense for building and equipment had
to be met.
Is Well Equipped.
The factory in consideration is eX-
ceedingly large and extensively
equipped. 1t will be proposed to the
owners that they rent out portions OF
the building, just as required, to men
who are without capital and who. OF
necessity, must have modern factory
advantages in order to conduct their
business. The factory is provided
with light generating plant, mod
ern heating system. and power plant
extending to all parts Of the building
With such equipment it would be on
II necessary for the renters to install
such apparatus as required by theil
business.
One of the Commercial club officials
declared today that he believed
there were number of men in Rich
mond who were unable to start VI
small businesses because of the large
amount of money necessary to back
any enterprise when building an(
equipment must be secured, but who
would be glad to start up under con
ditiOns which such an ''industria
plant would provide. Also. he sale
he believed there were several small
| concerns struggling on in the city
now which would be greatly benefit
| ed by such arrangements.
The proposition will probably be
| taken up at an early meeting of the
club and steps taken to determine
whether the owners of the building
would be willing to rent out small de
partments. a small part of the fac
| tory is now occupied by the Lantern
company.
An industrial plant Of this nature
is operated at Indianapolis accordin:
to advices of the Commercial c.ul
and is proving very satisfactory. 9th
er places also have found them prof
table and it is the belief of the loca
men that Richmond would prove NJ
exception.

NUMBERING VERNACUIAR.

The Canadian lumber industry will
furnish the dictionary maker with a
generous share of his swelling word to-
tails. If il has not already done so.
Timber tracts across the border are di-
vided into limits" or "berths." The
growing timber on tract is a STAND
and the contents of stand are meas
ured in feet" which means board one
foot thick, and not a cubic foot. To
survey a stand of timber is to cruise"
it. and the man who does it is a 'cruis-
err" and his report is cruise" Trees
are failed" and the man who has
failed" a tree is a sawyer For
transportation by water logs are made
up into RATS, put rafting" means
hauling a raft by tugs. The cross logs
that bind the raft together are swift
ers' and the intervals between the
"swifters" are sections" The Cana
dian equivalent for lumber jack Is
"shanty man." Going up to camp is
going up to the shanties." Land that
has been turned is ''brOly," that is to
say brule Timber is frequently cut
with four flat sides. but with part of
the original circumference of the log
left between the flat sides. This curve
is the "vane," and the log so cut cut
is a "waney lOg"-New York Post.

GARDENS AND NEfGHBOREY
AMENITIES.

"COnceits of Gardens is the name OF
d series of little talks on flowers.
strung together in most informal fash
ion by a writer in the Chicago Post.
There is a philosopher who is also the
primrose man and the woman from the
city and the bride; and then the folk
who live across the alley and keep a
donkey and rabbits and chickens and a
dog that bays the moon. one touch OF
nature, indeed, makes them all kin.
For all these people are interested in
flowers. and they watch one another's
failures and successes with neighborly
regard. The folk across the alley can't
raise flowers. because they raise the
donkey and rabbits and chickens and
the dog that bays the moon: but they
love To look at other peoples flowers.
and the philosopher. even after he had
been driven to build fence against
the donkey and the rabbits and chick
ens-no fence was proof against the
baying dog-was finally driven to make
a good big hole in the fence so that
the folks across the alley could look
in at his primroses.
The bride had a disappointing time
with her. roses and imported lilies.
though she said not a wl-d to anybody
but planted gay little 0etunias with
double frills and marigolds with ruffles,
and four o clocks that inundated the
whole place with their o2lashes Of
brightness, and tried TO forget the joys
that did not come to pass.
And the primrose man told how he
had been in the garden with Orlando
and the bride at night To satisfy them

This Boer family was one of the

not a ripple of fun or exurberant life

cepting their destiny with a deep
stiffness. The wife gives of her
strength to the limit, and dies after
giving birth to a dozen or more
children, to make way for wife num-
Der two, who gives another dozen
children to her country. Her adobe
house, with its dirt floor made of
anthill clay mixed with beef gall,
is a chamber of hOrrer to an Amer
lean traveller.
The farmer depends upon his ten
to eighteen children, of all sizes. to

is unpendable as the wind that blows.
Yet that Kaffir is the hired man in
the mines and elsewhere in South
Africa. The white man as a day
laborer is a general failure. He
cannot be worked in droves like the
Kaffir from the interior. whose lang
uage in clicks and vowel sounds, is
hardly human.
The Boer is not long lived. One
seldom met an aged Boer of the old
stock. Dom Paul Kruger. who was
20 years old when he died, was an
exception. Hatred toward the Uit-
lander and the lust for gold and
power was what kept the fires of life
BURNING at white heat within him.
