ore for the surplus of their iron pro-
duction over their own output, we iiud
Sweden and Spain to stand in the first
place From the former country Ger
many alone got last year e2,5OOO0O
worth of iron ore, from the latter
nearly G1,0OO,OOO worth. But even
such distant countries as Asiatic Rus
STA and Algeria appear as suppliers of
iron ore i'm the German customs rolls.
Worse than that is the forecast for the
future. A statistcian has calculated
that i'm consequence of the rapid
growth of the consumption of iron lin
the leading industrial countries their
own stock of iron ore will soon be ex-
hausted. In the United States the
production of iron in 1908 was estt.
mated at 100000 tons, in Germany
at II 100000, in Great Britain at 9,009,-
600. In Germany the production of
iron has trebled within the last twenty
years, and the consumption of iron per
head of the population rose within ten
years from 14O to 100 kilogrammes.
If that goes on, it will, according TO
this statistician, last only ten years
until all iron ore in Great Britain is
used up. For Germany he finds a sup
ply for thirty years, IN the United
States for fifty, in France for 700
years. We presume that the situation
is not quite as bad as represented by
this specialist. In any case, however,
Germany and Great Britain have au
urgent interest to preserve their own
layers of iron ore for an emergency
and get as much as possible from
abroad. But in Spain, as we'll as in
Sweden, the idea seems to gain ground
that this valuable mineral ought to be
reserved for the future industrial de-
velopment of their own nations. 1t
is to be feared that under the present
circumstances, unless brake is put
on the output. the Spanish deposits
will be exhausted after thirty-fve
years and the Swedish ones within a
century. 1t is, therefore, of great i'm
portance to work other layers as soon
as possible. Fortunately large and
rich fields of iron ore have been dis.
covered in Lapland on both sides of
the polar circle and in the southern
parts of Morocco. AS matters stand.
it is easily eXplainable, the Central
blatt der Hutten-und Walzwerke, the
organ for the interests of the Ger
man iron and metal industry, calls
attention to the fact that the open
door in Morocco, the free access TO
the iron ore mines to be founded
there, is of vital Importance for the
future of German industry.-Contin

AN EXCITING TRAMP.

A party of the Trail and Mountain
club had an adventurous tramp yester.
day over the range from Palolo valley,
Governor Frear being one of those to
make the trip. The tramp was up Pa
lolo Valley, across the crater, up the
high peak Makapuu of Palolo crater
and from the summit down into Wal.
manalo over the pail. Only four per-
sons in recent years have ever before
passed over this trail, and three of
them-Emil Berndt, Fritz Baering and
A. H. Tarleton-were yesterday with
the party headed by Governor Frear,
director of the club. The others who
accomplished the trip were Professor
Mead, w. A. Bryan, Irwin H. Beadle
Paul Super, A. H. Ford Chris Jenkins,
Gilbert Brown and Gordon Brown.
The members were fastened with
ropes during the worst part of their
climb and in sliding down this rope
Emil Berndt cut his hands severely.

Be open to Every Boy In Maury
County Under the Given Age.

A movement that will doubtless be
popular one was that started By the
Board of Trade Directors at their
meeting Tuesday night in the Offices
of the Columbia Bank & Trust Co.
The matter of the county fair was
brought up and discussed and G. A.
Parker and Horace Rainey, who are
members of the Board of Trade fair
committee were telling of the success
the committee had had with the Mid
die Tennessee Fair Association and
that they felt sure that the county
would have one of the best fairs that
was ever held in the State and that
a number of citizens had promised to
offer different sums for premiums In
the agricultural and mule depart
ments and that the fair association
had stated that they would supple
ment the premium with like amount.
This aroused much interest.
After the adjournment of the open
meeting of the Board of Trade,
the directors went into session for the
purpose of electing officers. The
subject of the Board of Trade offering
a premium of $3.50 for the best acre
of corn raised in the county by any
boy under eighteen years of age was
suggested and taken to the President
was authorized to appoint a commit
tee to perfect such a SCENE.
Horace Rainey, w. F. Anderson and
J. C. Hardy were appointed the COM
mittee to raise the funds and before
the adjournment of the board of direc-
tors $500 had been subscribed.
Full details will be given out later
and application blanks furnished for
the contestants. All who expect to
enter the contest can begin the prepa-
ration of the land as the prize money

w. r. THOMAS WRITES LETTER
IN WHICH HE CLAIMS THAT IT
DOES NOT HURT STOCK.

W. F. Thomas, a prominent farm
or living near this city, has written
a letter to The Herald, in which he
says that the feeding of clover hay
to stock does not injure them. The
letter follows:
To the Editor of The Herald
Seeing an article in your Daily
Herald regarding feeding moulded
clover hay, killing stock, l can speak
from experience. l had quite lot
of that kind of hay once and thought
it worthless, so l hauled! it out and
stacked it by an old straw pile for
fertilizer, allowing the stock to eat
it if they liked, and there was very
little left for fertilizer. l could not
see that it hurt any of the stock, and
SO l think it safe to lay the trouble
to the ensilage. have fed moulded
clover hay of and on for fifteen years,
and never lost any stock from eating
1t. l do not think you could strike
farmer who has not fed more or
less clover hay.

cult; )Evelyn W., the queen of the
pacing mares down the big line, and
(this may be told joyfully) she was
bred In Maury County.
"One of the very best of our far
sighted breeders to see the import
ance Of infusing trotting blood into
the pacing mixture in Tennessee was
the late Maj. CAMPBELL Brown, who
was the means of bringing into this
section Wilkes horse, namely, Ten
nessee Wilkes, and the Wilkes family
10 now way Off in the lead of all
other families either on the pace or
on the trot. With the same clear
foresight as his gifted father posses
sed, Mr. George Campbell Brown was
the means of bringing down to Maury
County Wilkes stallion, one of the
fastest of that family and by far the
most handsome, well-mannered and
famous for all-around desirable quail
tiles, a champion among champions,
John R. Gentry.
When this horse astonished the
world by pacing mile in 20O1s In
a gale of wind on an afternoon when
Robert j. esayed the same SORT Of
performance and was only able to
pace a mile in 2:0312, people wond-
cred if John R. Gentry would ever
accomplish anything else. This was
only one of his many remarkable
feats. In real races he beat every
horse he ever met. He raced for
eight years over all sorts of tracks,
literally from Maine to California,
and from Canada to North Carolina.
He took a worlds race record by
beating Star Pointer in 2:011a on
mile track, and another one (which
still stands by beating Joe Patchen
| in 2:O4A over a half mile track. He
| never met Direct but once, which
was in the show ring, and suffice to
say that John r. Gentry took
the blue ribbon from Direct as easily
as he did from every other horse
that he ever met in any show ring
anywhere. John r, Gentry is the
only champion who ever raced to a
worlds record in an open bride and
with only one bit in his mouth. He
is the only champion who was just as
good in double harness as he was in
single harness, and so pleasant
roadster that young lady could
drive him anywhere where nice
horse, or a nice lady, could go.
And now (as if all these achieve
ments were not enough to overwhelm
one horse) in the turf records of 1910,
out of seventy meritorious stations
which the turf papers call successful
sires, John R. Gentry stands fourth,
j having sixteen new ones to his Gre

horses, who took records In real
races, instead Of standing fourth,
John R. Gentry stands frst. That
the achievements of John R. Gentry
in 1911 will be astonishing is the
most certain thing in pacing probo-
bilities. 1t Is becoming proverb
that the Gentrys can almost train
themselves. All of them who raced
last year, with the exception of two
or three, we're in the hand of nov
ices, some of them mere boys. Who
ever saw horse to equal the per-
