itself
Undue absorption in cotton grow
ing by too many farmers has been a
drawback upon cattle raising in the
South. and another influence against
j. in thAs past was in the difficulties
of preserving meats. Bnt ineide nlf
ly with On expansion IN diversified
farmingqin some respects a batter
of necessity, has come p great in
crease in all parts OF the South in
the number of plants for artificial
refrigeration. In one city Of Texas,
for instance, where ten years ago
only 10000 tons of ice were pro-
duced in a year, there are now thir-
teen factories turning out 0,000 tons
a month. -.
Cold Storage Plants.
Last midsummer the Manufacture
.ers Record published. a list of plans
gannounced in its columns during five
months for new ice-making and cold
storage plants, or for improvements
in existing plants. This list showed
more than $50 ice factories or cold
storage enterprises of daily capacity
ranging from five tons to six car
loads. most Of them being plants Of
comparatively small capacity, and
representing in the aggregate an in
vestmentt Of between, 100000. and
$40. 900, 900. Some of the plants are
in connection with electric lighting,
many of them are for the manufac-
ture of ice for sale, some of them
are for the cold storage Of poultry
products or for the icing of refrig-
orator cars transporting early fruits
and vegetables to the North and
West, and others are directly con-
nected with the packing house indus
try. In the success of most OF them
the farmers, of the South have di-
rect interest, and thorough co-opera-
ton on their part means greater
profit to them and advance to the po-
sition of virtual independence as to
prices of cotton.

DR. ELIOT ON ARBITRATION.

In the January Strand Magazi ae
Professor Charles w. Eliot gives hrs
views on international arbitration AM
it's possible extensions. He say
The suggested arbitration betwe n
Great Britain and the United States
to cover all disputes without eXcep-
ton is highly interesting because i
tends to invaldate the long accept ID
theory that there are disputes between
nation and nation--often called
questions of honor-which can be sat
isfactorily settled only through trial
by combat. Hence, endless prepara-t
t ons for fighting, and after insults,
either passionate or coolly calculate |,
occasional great sheddings of blood,
and prodigious wastes of the fruits
of labor. The proposal naturaii, .se-
gests some other conceivable agree
ments to prevent war 1t makes prac-
teal and pressing each of the follow
ing questions:
walls in trade and in Industrial d.
velopment, can make a treaty which
will render war between them impos-
sible, how many nations natural
competitors perhaps would have Il
unite in an offensive and defensive
alliance TO make private property l.
sea immune from seizeure or any in
reference except when violating a
blockade? Would combination o.
four nations, each possessing strong
navy. be sufficient, or of, five or of
six? Which four or which six, would
be an interesting inquiry.
90 If every nation believed that
it's supplies of oversee food and raw
materials could not be cut Off l,y
some other nation which had unjustly
declared war upon it, private proper

- 90 II the naturalization Of terfi-
tory. now applied to small nations
could be made applicable to large nd
tional territories by treaty between
several form dable nations, would the
dread of sudden invasion be dimin-
ished or removed?
ca If France, Germany. Italy and
Austria should by treaty adost
simultaneously the Swiss system of

Hrer Rabbit. the Zero.

The folklore tales of the south and
Of the West Indies are often similar,
the only difference being in the hero
of the plot. Brer Rabbit is the hero
Of southern folklore tales; Bo Anancy
lakes the leading part in the West In
lian epic. Geographical dissimilarity
Of origin explains the difference; the
rabbit stories are of Congolese or
Bantu origin; Anancy stories original
ed on the gold coast. The rabbit was
the totem from which the Bantus
were supposed to be descended, while
the Tshi-speaking tribes, from whom
West Indian negroes trace their de-
scent, had the anancy, or spider, as
their totem. In the Anancy stories wild
animals have the gift OF speech; they
converse freely with men and live on
easy social terms with them.-Samuel
q. Jones, in the Southern Workman,

STONES THAT ARE socIABLE
Travelling Pebbles Of Nevada When
Separated Move Rapidly Toward
a Common Center.

Travelling stones" from the size of
a pea to six inches in diameter, are
found in Nevada. fs
When distributed on floor or 9TH
er level surface, within two or three
feet Of one another, they Immediately
begin to travel toward a common cen
ter, and there lie huddlea like .
clutch OF eggs In a nest.
A single stone removed to a dis
lance of three and half feet, upon
being released, at once started with
wonderful and somewhat comical cell
Gritty to join its fellows.
These queer stones are found in a
region that is comparatively level and
little more than bare rock. Scattered
over this barren region are little ha-
sins, from few feet to a rod or two
in diameter, and it is in the bottom Of
these that the rolling stones are found.
The cause for the strange conduct
of these stones is doubtless to be
found in the material of which they
are composed, which appears to 10
lodestone or magnetic iron ore.-Har-

Good in Low-voiesd Reply.


We have discovered in our home
that IL the table talk gets too noisy
ono Of the family may bring the rest
to order by speaking in sudden whis-
per. Parents often sacrifice much TO
give their children dancing and music
lessons, but the most lovely accom-
plishment of all, soft and pleasant
speaking voice, is something they may
themselves develop in the children. 1
find that a child reflects almost in
stantly the tone of voice Of one who
speaks to him. A very gentle and
low-voiced reply to an excited or an
cry child reduces his next remark to
half in volume. To answer the vexa-
ton of a little child in a whisper
catches attention, often brings laugh
and is far better than to stamp the
fretful tone deeper by mimicking Il.
as parents sometimes do. Example is
better than precept. Parents who have
themselves learned self-control, and
that it is never necessary to raise
ones voice in order to speak with dis
nifty and authority, are teaching their
children priceless lessons. That a
soft answer turneth away wrath is a
cardinal maxim for the household

Monument Of Modern Barbarian
Erected by the Turks IN 1909
at Nlsh, servIa.

A strange monument Of modern
barbarism still survives at Nlsh In
southeast ServIa. During the war OF
independence in 1909 the servian gar
rison here exploded powder maya
zine and perished therein rather than
fall into the hands Of the Turks.
A battle had previously taken place
and the Turks commemorated their
victory by erecting a rude tower, or
namented with the heads Of their enc
mics. Old people will tell you that
there we're once 1000 heads, but ao
the tower was never more than rs feet
high, this is probably an exaggeration.
Lamartine and other travellers re-
late that they saw hair still clinging
TO the skulls, which must have formed
a grewsome spectacle. During many
years visitors we're in the habit of
carrying of skulls as souvenirs, but
when Nish became Servian the re-
mainder were taken away for decent
burial, all save few that were too
deeply imbedded Recently the re-
mains of the tower have been covered
over with a roof to protect them
against the elements and they are re-
garded as pious object of patriotic
ilgrimage.-Wide World Magazine.

three months and l am glad to say
that they cured me of a most annoy
ing skin eruption. 1t began by my no

rather disfiguring, did not think any
thing Of them until they began to get
scaly and dry and to itch and burn
until l could not stand the suffering.
Then began to use a different soap,
thinking that my old kind might be
hurting me, but that didn't seem to do
any good. went to two different doc
tors but neither seemed to relieve me-

: Of Royalty.

A German newspaper publishes
some particulars of the tips and gratu'
tiles distributed by royal person
ages on their travels. The kaiser has
a tariff that provides with German
bureaucratic thoroughness for every
claim upon his generosity when trav'
cling, and, what is more, every recipi'
ent gets what has been allotted to
him. 1t is different in the case OF
Nicholas H., certainly the richest man
in the old world, and most likely OF
the new as we'll. The Russian en-
peror lacks the money sense entirely,
like his grandfather, and the gifts of
various kinds arranged for his travels
are on a scale of amazing eXtrava-
gance But by the time they reach
the benefciaries they have shrunk to
average proportions owing to graft. It
is even said on the best possible au'
thority that the jewels of the decora-
tions which his majesty bestows on
the dignitaries of foreign courts in
variably are found TO have turned
into paste while in transit to their
destination.
