FINE SAND DEPOSIT.
Opened Up by George E. Mcfarland
On His Property,

George e. Mcfarland has recently
opened up a sand bank on his prop.
erty on the South Barre road, near the
old Robinson mill, which is without
question most valuable tract of sand
and which he claims, is Of better
grade than has ever been found around
Barre. Mr. Mcfarland has thoroughly
tested and tried out the sand in ce-
ment walks, basement floors and in the
walls OF dam and il has proved in
every case, when mixed properly with
cement. to be as hard as stone and
as durable
Though he has only recently opened
up the bank for the purpose of selling
the sand he has used it for number
of years He has used il in cement
walks around his house and a drive
way into his barn The pavement at
the doorway to the barn has been
in use for nine years and horses have
been over it every day; still it shows
no wear.
The sand is also of the grade that
is used in the finest thing made The
bank is just off the main road and
very easily approached with teams
The sand lies from twelve to eighteen
inches below the soil and is absolutely
free from dirt and rocks 50 that no
sitting is necessary. That there is
sand enough there to last at least one
generation can be seen from the fact
that the field where 1t lie contains over
an acre and half and holes have been
bored down thirteen feet without strik-
ing the hard pan. Mr.. Mcfarland
has put the sand to the government
test and found that it stood the test
perfectly When eN lsed to the sun
the sand turns white Under the mag
nifying glass the sand has the ap.
pearance of small pebble stones, all
the same size
Mr. Mcfarland has been scraping
the soil from the top of the sand and
will soon have place opened up so
that several teams can load at the
same time From the many test holes
that have been bored the sand seems
to be a solid tract of very
even grade and does not lie in veins
like most sand banks.

STRIKERS CAN
HOLD OUT LONG
Claim That Strike is Not
Meaning End-No
Compromise.

Jackson, Mich, oct. 11.-Although
the Illinois Central railroad officials
here claim that the systems fedora
ton .rtriltc is nearing its close, the
strikers themselves grimly assert that
the roads viii find them able and will
ing to hold out much longer.
1--WE have received no overtures
from the company as yet" said one
OF the strike leaders, today, "and we
will make no effort to compromise un
I'll we do hear from them. They know
our terms and we are better able
to get along without them than they
are without hs."
No disturbance has been reported
along the strike belt. the strikers be-
ing content 10 await developments.
The roads claim that the imported
laborers are rapidly picking up the
method of hfndling the machinery in
the big shous. and that, II the strik-
ers do not come to terms soon, it may
not be necessary for them to do so at
all, for the hew men will have been
broken in by that time.

Marion's unsanitary streets are be-

tertain fear of an epidemic
Mayor Setter took up the matter
this morning in an effort to devise
some scheme by which money could
be secured to clear away the filth
which has accumulated on the streets.
city Solicitor Boyd was consulted and
from him came the statement that
the city could issue statements of in
debtedness for sufficient funds to
clean the streets until the first of the
year Under the Smith one per cent
law 1t is unlawful to issue overdrafts
to meet any deficiency that might
exist In the city funds secured from
the tax levy. This was the usual
means of tlding the city over such
emergencies.
Today city Health Officer Addison
Balm began an investigation of the
unsanltary condition of the streets
and by tomorrow expects to have
some decision from the state authori-
ties concerning the local shortage In
funds and what can be done under
such circumstances.
John Kinsler wanted TO put a force
Of men to work on the streets and
pay them when the funds were avail
able but he was informed that he
