week in striving TO gain the approval
Of the United States circuit court for
its plans of reorganization.
After several delays, tobacco trust at
tOrneys expect soon to submit their

must face.
The cigarette manufacturers are the
latest recruits to the opposition, which
the independents say includes also the
cigar manufacturers, leaf dealers, Gig
ar box manufacturers and the organiza-
tions Of the union and nonunion cigar
makers.
Until the reorganization matter comes
definitely before the. court the independ-
ents seem uncertain OF their position.
They do not know just how much voice
the circuit court judges will allow them
in settling the question.

merely to attack the plan proposed"

LARGE PRODUCTION OF LIME.
Nearly Three and a Half Million Tons
According to United States Geo.
logical Survey.

One of our practically inexhaustible
natural resources is lime. The avail
able limestone rock widely distributed
over the United States can not be est
mated even in millions or billions Of
tons. IT is fact also that the more
Use is thrown away'-seattered over
the ground the better it is for the
country. Lime is great soil renovator,
and while it is believed to have no
actual fertilizing value in the sense Of
being in itself a plant food, it is a well
known fact, not only among farmers,
but among soil scientists, that spread.
ing it upon the fields and blowing il
under makes many soils more productive
by rendering available the plant food
they already contain. Lime has also a
great variety of other highly important
uses; in fact, few mineral products have
SO wide scope OF usefulness.
A little more than half the lime man
ufactured in the United States is used
as structural material-in lime mortars,
Portland cement mortars, concrete, gyp-
sum plasters, and whitewash. Large
quantities are also used In the man
ufacture OF chemicals. in clarifying many

dustries, in sanitation, in the smelling

The total production of lime In 1910,
according to figures complied by Ernest
IF. Burchard and just given out by the
United States geological survey, was
3,469,4l6 short tons, valued at Sl3,s09,
200. slight decrease in both tonnage
and value as compared with the figures
for 1909, The average price per ton in
1910 was $685.

Gan Wool" Clothing.

Many men have been greatly disap-
pointed because clothes which they pur-
chased as being "all wool" did not wear
hold their shape, nor retain their origi.
nal beauty of coloring.
In nearly every case this was be-
cause the cloth of which they were
made contained authorizations which
mills are obliged to use in order to
produce cloth at fixed price.
The Earnsdale Worsted company abso-
lutely refuse to have their output gov
erned by price; their woolens are first,
last and always made entirely from
virgin pure wool This is one of the
reasons why so many leading tailors
are using them in preference to wool
ems Of largely unknown quality
In their educational series of adyer-
tisements now appearing in this paper,
the Earnsdale Worsted Co.. Clinton,
Mass, offer to send free TO any OF our
readers their pamphlet, "Adulteration
of Wooden Fabris," which is well worth
careful reading.

taken as follows: Butter, thickly spread

Cream is best taken ON cereals and in
the form of rich milk. When used
whipped with sugar and favoring on rich
desserts, it is difficult to digest, or,
rather. the combination is. Olive oil
may be taken directly after each meal,
or one hour after. Beginning with one
teaspoonful, the amount may be gradu-
ally increased to one tablespoonful after
each meal. In addition to this, it may
be freely used on salads.
"Cereals, bread, potatoes, etc, are
possibly the most valuable we have as
