The WAR GAME.

Washington, March,-At army
headquarters here officers stoutly
cling to the style of statement with
respect to the "maneuvers" which
tend to convey the impression that
it is a peaceful performance, por-
tending nothing more serious than
advancing the good of the military
service.
With respect to the participation
in the maneuvers by officers of the
National Guard of the states, Gen
eral Wood makes this statement
Within a week or ten days we
hope to be able to receive the mil
tia officers. We plan to assign one
officer to each company, and it will
take 1913 infantry officers, SO cavalry
officers and IL artillery officers from
the militia to cover completely the
division. In addition, a number of
staff officers will be assigned to the
various branches of the service.
About two hundred officers can be
taken care of at one time, and each
group will be given two weeks SER
vice in the field. $500 acceptances
of our invitations have been received
with two states yet to hear from,
Wyoming and Kentucky and the
District of Columbia. The general
officers of the army will be given
two months experience each in
their respective capacities in COM
mand of troops
The three states of Illinois, Iowa
and Missouri in 1910 produced
more corn than the total combined
production of all Europe, Africa,
Australasia and South America.
The three states produced 1885,
100000 bushels. The total produc-
ton of the United States in 1910
was 3,125,713,00O bushels. The
greatest previous production was in
1906 when the yield was 2,927,416,-
900 bushels. Forty per cent of the
1910 crop was on the farms on
March 1, according to the returns
to the Department of Agriculture.

Our Trade With Brazil.

Atlanta, Ga, March 21.-Infor-
nation obtained by the Southern
Railway Company from the United
States Bureau of Manufactures,
shows that during the six months
ended June 80 1910 the total i'm
ports into Brazil of manufactures
of cotton amounted to $8,196,415,
while the imports from the United
States into Brazil of the same
articles amounted to only $245.265
or only 20 percent of the total.
While the imports from the United
States into Brazil of manufactures
of cotton for the period named in
creased $41,639 or 20.4 per cent
over the same period of the previous
year, $245,265 seems very small in
comparison with the total imports
of these goods into Brazil.
Il will thus be seen that Brazil
offers a splendid field for a healthy
expansion of the export cotton goods
trade and the favorable geographi-
cal location of the Southern mills
with reference to the Brazilian
market would seem to give them
special advantage.
In this connection, it may not be
generally known that the United
States is the best customer Brazil
has. The total imports into the
the United States from that ceun-
try average about $100,000,0O0
per year while the exports from the
United States to Brazil average
less. than $4,000, 900 per year.

Hon. j. E. Mercer,

My dear friend
| had anticipated
a trip to your county during the
short recess, but ] returned home
with a most severe attack of grippe
from which am slowly convalesing.
In reply to your kind favor of the
18th instant | beg to state that |
remained over in Washington sew
eral days after adjournment in the
Third District. There is only
twelve thousand ($12O0W dollars
appropriated for soil survey, an
amount in my opinion entirely in
adequate, but | am very happy to
state that | have arranged to have
a soil survey of Zen Hill county
which | consider rather a victory
under the conditinns. This survey
has been promised, but it was i'm
possible to get definite statement
when the work would begin-I hope
at an early date.
also read with pleasure your
open letter. shall take the mat
ter up Immediately, and at the
proper time expect to get an appro-
priation for your public building.

that l am your servant to command.

ued prosperity and development of
your city and county l am

Aviators Arrived To-day.

The aviators did not reach the
city until noon today and it is i'm
possible to get the aeroplanes ready
for fight before night, consequently
there will be no flying today.
This aviation is not as simple a
proposition as horse racing or other
entertainments. The man, the
machine, the prepared ground and
the weather must all be in harmony.

DEPOSITS INSURED.

A Certificate Of Deposit, issued by
a National bank, and guaranteed
against less by the Fidelity and
Casualty Company Of New York,
the strongest bonding company in
America, affords absolute protection
to the depositor without extra cost,
the usual rate of interest being paid
on all savings accounts. The Third
National Bank adopted this gQaran-
tee last year and bank depositors,
especially Savings depositors, are
very much interested in this plan
of insuring deposits.
