Reforestation Being Done by Prai
rie State-Curious Enough.

Chicago, April 7.-Re-forestation in
eastern states largely has been done
from prairie state, a curious fact
disclosed by shipments through Chi
cago of millions of white pine and
spruce trees grown in Illinois by a
man who has devoted a lifetime to
the study of evergreens and how to
grow them. In one year it is said the
shipments, chiefly to New England,
made by d. Hill amounted to three
million Seeding trees. On his farm
at Dundee, the long fuzzy rows of
pines, spruces, hemlocks, larches and
other evergreens comprise billions
Of seedlings destined to be transplant
ed to the rugged slopes of the White
Mountains and the Appalachians. The
seed is planted in a hot house, and
transplanted to the open ground
when a few inches thigh. Each kind
by itself is allowed to grow in rows
so thick that they are one long
fuzzy mass, each tree shoot serving
as protection for its neighbor until
they attain size wnen transplanting
is necessary. The depleted stock Of
Christmas trees for New England
and other states now is being re-
penished annually at the rate of mil
lions, if not billions, the growing
of white pine and other trees TO-
lumber having been found more prof
liable than growing corn, although
the crop" can be harvested only
twice in a lifetime.

ARE YOU IN THE
GAME--S5 TODAY
MISSING WORDS REACH HlGHWA-
TER MARK - FOUR WORDS
WORTH $1.25 EACH.

Out of AT least one hundred lists o.
words sent in to the missing word
man since Monday not one contained
a correct list of the four words omit
ted from the page OF ads on that day
Many. however, got two out of the
four words and some got right near to
the two that We're needed to complete
the list.
We felt positive that after reading
the tip dropped yesterday that some
one would send in a correct list today
and claim the four dollars due 1ast
night-but none did and today the
award runs up higher than 1t has yet
been-five dollars for the first correct
list received after today's issue OF
The Ardmoreite.
Now, you no doubt, would be will
ing to work hard all day long for THE
amount OF money-here's a chance to
make it for little perseverance-just
the close perusal of page of ads.
Yesterday and this morning num-
Der of replies have been received
from men who are willing to test their
skill as proofreaders in an effort to
pick up four dollars. Today, no doubt,
there will be more of the masculine
suasion get in the game-'cause some
men think that five dollars is more
montezuma than a lady should pos
sess at one and the same time with
out the opportunity of taking it from
the mans trousers while he sleeps.
The salt outlined yesterday evident
ly was not properly applied by those
adopting it and the contest man hard
ly knows what kind of tip to give
those who are working so hard to win
this nice piece Of pin-money-really
enough to pay a weeks board. All
kinds of words have been suggested
by those competing for the cash
premiums-and when We compare
them with the four innocent words
we have purposely left out of the
page, the wonder to us is how in the
world they can be so nearly right and
yet be dead wrong. There, we un-
Intentionally used the two words
needed by many who tried to supply
them, but failed-and, so, right here
in this story these two words appear
in type-simple, unassuming words
that you use hundreds of times a day
in fact, they form an expression
made by most every person VINO
speaks the English language-and all
other languages as far as We know.
Remember that these four words
are now worth a five dollar bill-and
provided no correct list is received be
fore Sunday they will net the finder
six dollars.
Get busy-right nowhere anxi
Gus to change these words and make
it easier for the contestants.

USELESS EXPENDITURE
OF INSURANCE MONEY

Deputy Insurance Commissioner
Wharton Says That Laurens People
are Throwing Away Money Need
lessly.
Deputy Insurance Commissioner b..
A. Wharton was i'm the city on an in
spection tour of the state, gibing es-
pecial attention to untidy premises and
defective flues. The latter he gives a
great deal OF time to.
Mr. Wharton. in speaking of the
matter of nonstandard fiues. said that
by n very small outlay as much as
ed on each thousand of insurance by
people in this city and all over the
state. if they would only give the mat
ter little attention. There are many
brick on edge, or OF tile, terra Gotta
or metal. These are called .non-stand-
ard fues and can be easily remeded.
The standard flue is one built with the

pays about 800 extra insurance where
an outlay of four or five dollars in
YXnig two flues would save that
amount. In fact about 60 per cent
of the stores within the business dis
trict are paying this entra insurance
unnecessarily. One of these firms
during the past week spent $3.50 in
remedying a defective fue and thereby
saved S17 year.
Mr.. Wharton also pointed out that
trash and other accumulations ON
premises also tended to raise the in
surance rates by almost an equal
amount. In this connection he said
that Laurens was to be complement
ed on the improved appearance of the
streets and premises since his last
visit. This he attributed i'll a large
measure to the work of Health In
spector Langston. who he said has
been Very diligent IN keeping trash
and other accumulations from stand
ing
Mr, Wharton also had a bouquet to
throw at the civic leagues over the
state. saying that they are doing more
TO reduce untidiness ana uncleanliness
in the cities titan any one other agen-
cy. In this way they are not only
beautfying their towns but they are
reducing insurance premiums.
Mr.. Wharton said that the object
of his inspections is TO point out con
ditions whereby people in the state can
reduce their own insurance rates by
carrying out few instructions at a
small outlay of money
