Fine Poultry.

When It comes to raising fine
poultry, Mrs. W. C. Morse has it. She
raises the Ringlet strain of Barred
Rocks, and has on hand about 80
cockerels. Monday, Joseph Dagle,
an expert poultry judge was here
from Richland, Iowa, and scored
about 80 OF the birds, the score be-
ing from SO IL to 80 IA Mr.. Dagle
pronounced this the best lot of birds
he has scored this year ana he is
kept busy in this line of work The
poultry business is most profitable
and could be made bring in many
thousands ofdollars mere each year
if our people would handle more
poultry such as the Morse birds. A
live poultry association breeding
fine pu.e bred bids would be a
good thing for the community as
well as for the people who raise the
birds. By all means let each one
of us do what we can to encourage
the industry.

ALLAN IA CHARTER
HAS BEEN RUINED
AFTER TROUBLE AND FUSS MUST
WAIT ONE YEAR OWING
TO CLERICAL ERRORS.

Atlanta, Aug. 3O.-Clerical errors
seem to be playing havoc with the
work of the recent Georgia legisla-
ture, and to cap the climax it now ap-
pears that Atlanta's new charter may
be invalidated by the same trouble.
The error was in writing 1911 when it
should have been 1910. 1t may yet be
remedied, but the discovery is causing
world Of talk. d,
The Atlanta newspapers began to
jump on the system in vogue at the
capitol several days ago when it was
discovered that some of the most i'm
portant bills were made foolish and
probably of no force by the blunders
of inefficient clerks The necessity
for civil service regulations that
would insure capable work was clear
ly apparent. Most of the clerks who
are given these positions are favored
entirely on political grounds without
any regard to their abality to do the
work; in fact the clerks are often
changed before the session is half
over in order that other clerks might
be given the places the pay the poll
teal debts of the lawmakers.
Now comes the big blunder in the
Atlanta charter After all the hub
bub in getting it passed-and it took
a world of work to do tit may be
n. G. by an ineXcusable error.
The question has been raised as to
whether the special election can be
held this year. The error was made
in section 154 of the bill and that
section provides that only those citi-
zens who have paid their state,
county and city taxes for 1911 can
vote. The state and county tax books
are not open for payment until Octo-
Der l, 1911. The election is set for
September q, several days before
citizens are permitted to pay their
taxes.

FRECKLES
New Drug That Qaickly Remaves
These Homey Spots,

There's no longer the slightest need
of feeling ashamed of your freckles,
as new drug, Othine double
strength has been discovered that is
a positive cure for these homely spots.
Simply get one ounce of othine-
double strength, from e. c. Bruce, and
apply little of it at night, and in
the morning you will see that even
the worst have begun to disappear,
while the light freckles have vanish
ed entirely. 1t is seldom more than
an ounce is needed to completely
clear the skin and a beautiful clear
complexion.
Be sure to ask for the double
strength othine, as this is sold under

|HARMONS FLIGHT OVER PANAMA
NEW TARGET IN AIR HAZARDS

tic to the Pacific is generally conceiv-
ed, but to the southeast, owing to the
very considerable twist In the isthmus
at this its narrowest point. So the
aviator will fly generally from north to
south and southeast, not In a straight
line, but in a rather sinuous route, fol-
lowing pretty closely the general
course Of the canal and Of the Panama
railroad. To vary greatly from this
route would put the aviator above I'M
known jungle and swamp territory
and add unnecessarily to the dangers.
The topography is such as to produce
cross currents and eddies In the lower
air strata, these currents paralleling
the conf1guration Of the land and being
atmospheric disturbers for at least
$50 feet above the earth. Therefore,
the aviator should attain a height OF
from $50 to $50 feet as soon as prac-
ticable after the launching, an altitude
greater than would be necessary under
normal conditions in the United States.
BY the time the navigator is ver Ga
tun, six miles from the starting point,
he should be at least $50 feet up, and
above the famous Culebra cut, three.
fourths of the distance between Colon
and Panama, he will have attained his
greatest height.
OF course it is feasible and may be
found desirable to 60 much higher
but the altitude mentioned will be suf-
f1cient for the aviator to discern the
Hargraves box kites and flags which
it is purposed to distribute along thu
routes-kites to indicate the route and
flags to mark available spots for land
ing in case the motor goes wrong. A
kite placed above Gatun dam will be
readily discernible from the ship a

task undertaken at the instance
of Clifford B. Harmon, who purposes
making an aerial trip from the Allan
tic to the Pacific on March TO-, leads
Lewis T. Haney, member Of the Amer
lean Society of Engineers, to believe
that, while feasible, the project will
be one Of the most hazardous If not the
most hazardous Of cross country flights
ever undertaken.
A successful fight, in his opinion,
will demonstrate fully the possibility
of an aviator traversing unknown ter
ritory under MOST trying. conditions as
to air currents, prove the efficiency Of
an engine working in tropical heat and,
as the start is to be from aboard ship,
it will prove that launchings car be
made safely for sustained fight over
land. Further, the fight will add
much to the fund of knowledge as to
the efficiency Of the heavier than air
machine as an aid in warfare and as
an aid to modern naval equipment.
An important difference lies in the
fact that in cross country trips in Eu'
rope or the United States the aviator
usually has been able to choose fields
for landing in emergency, in flights
over water there have been boats tc
rescue If necessary, and in flights ovel
cities the aviator has streets or parks
to which he can volplane in case his
motor goes wrong. None Of these aids
can be counted upon in the trip across
the isthmus. The aviator traverses
terra incognita, marked by tropica
jungle and swamp.

President Gomez has approved a bill
offering a prize Of $4,000 to the in
diyidual, native or foreign, who dis
covers the origin Of the disease which
attacks and kills the %cocoanut trees in
the island Of Cuba and the means
necessary for it's cur and prevention.
The prize is to be paid when it is
shown to the satisfaction Of the gov
eminent that the discovery has actual
ly been made and that the cure is eff
cacious. The disease in question is a
kind of "bud rot" which Is said to
have made its appearance in Cuba
prior to 1871, and, although repeated ef-
forts have been made to put an end to
its ravages, no effective means has as
yet been found except the destruction
of the plant affected.
