Y. N. M. A. Build
ing Is Completed.

The generosity "f the citizens of
Watcrvili" and that of The board Of
directors of the Maine Central r. r.
Co. made it possible for the campaign
committee. manned by loyal and en-
crgetic workers, 10 raise $4,000 in an
eight day campaign. to be used in the
erection Of IL building suitable for the
work Of tho Young Mons Christian
Association among the railroad men
who reside in Wa:ervillc and those
who have this city as their terminal
point. The gift OF tho lot by the
Maine Central r. r. Co. made it pos
sible to place the building where II
is convenient TO the men. Few if any
r. r. Y. NJ G. A. buildings have the
choice location that has been given to
the building here. 1t Is convenient
not only to the railroad Yards but also
TO III" business section OF the CITY and
gives the men home in tho desir-
able section Of the residential section
The committee having charge of the
erection OF the association building
found it necessary to use the entire
amount of money subscribed in order
to erect q building Sufficiently large
to accommodate the men who wish
TO use it and also 10 provide enough
dorlnitory rooms to insure revenue
thercfrom that would help in the cur
rent expense of carrying on the work
of the association thus making il more
a self sustaining work.
The building is completed ana has
been accepted by the building COM

are privileged to Sec many of the AS
sociation buildings in this and foreign
countries assure tn" COmmittc" that
the building is well adapted for the
work and also that II is far above
the average building tpInd in cities Of
this size.
The committee was not undWar
that money would be required 10 FUR

-Four Essentials to Agricultural
Prosperity in the Southern States

If TIE farmers of the south pro-
duced al the mules, corn. hogs and
hay than are used in the south what
would be the effect on agriculture?
1t would simply mean a revolution.
There are few counties in the whole
south that nave railroad station or
a boat landing that do not buy large
quantities of two or more of these
staple products There is no way of
estimating ace cately the money
spent each year for these farm prod
ucts, but it is simply enormous. All
this would be retained in the south
to circulate and increase all lines of
business, but this is only one of the
many benefits which would accrue.
Not until we breed Our own mules
can we hope to have enough Of them
to do our farm work well and eco
nomically. There are no greater
weaknesses in our present system of
doing farm work than those resulting
from a lack of mule power-the use
of small, ineffective implements and
of man labor which should have its
place taken by machines and mules.
AS long as corn and hay are pur-
chased to feed live stock we can new
er hope to keep that necessary to
build up our worn lands and consume

the forage which must be grown
when proper crop rotation is adopt
ed
Hogs offer one opportunity for get
ting into live stock husbandry at a
small cost for breeding stock, and
there is abundant proof that they
can be produced on cheap southern
grown feeds at large profit over
present prices. Here, indeed, is a
money crop" equal to King Cot
tonton" if cultivated with the same
interest and moderate intelligence.
Many of the suggestions offered
for the betterment of southern agrf-
culture are rejected by southern far
mers as impractiaable under existing
conditions. This is generally not
true. the impracticability of their
adoption resting entirely in the dis
inclination of our farmers; but who
will dare say that every individual
farmer in the south cannot raise his
hay corn and hogs, and little more
for the town people of his section il
he really wants to. Moreover. the
farmers OF the south, as a whole.
can raise all the mules used by the
south Just as soon as they want or
try to do so.-RaIeigh IN, CT Pro

mittees, and, as the result Of that
election, we find that Harrison Of
New York, Brantley of Georgia, and
Peters of Massachusetts, three of the
'twenCy-three, are elected members
of the Ways and Means Committee,
which committee is made the all
powerful committee on committees.
We find Fitzgerald is elected to head
the Appropriations Committee, in
many respects the most important
committee in the house. We find
Judge Moon of Tennessee placed at
the head of postofficeB, which COM
mittee will be very much in the
limelight in the next two years, and
requires a strong, able man at its
head We find Sparkman of Florida
at the head of the rivers and har-
| bOrs, a position tremendously sought
for, and one of great power. We find
GOldfogle of New York at the head
of one of the elections committees,
and, as there are numerous contests
pending, this is quite an important
position. We find others of the 49,
placed high up on important com
mitteeS, as, for instance, Lee of Geor-
gia on agriculture, Edwards of Geor-
gia on rivers and harbors, Broussard
of Louisiana on commerce, Estopinal
of Louisiana and RiOrdan of New
York on naval affairs. Conry of New
York goes to commerce; Goldfogle
also, and so it is with all of them.
They are all we'll assigned. In adj
dition to these large committees the
most of them have other committees.
There is thus demonstrated, it seems
to us completely, not only the char
acter and ability of these men, but
as well their excellent standing with
their democratic associates.

A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
A Friend Writes in Memory of the
Late Lester Woods,

The death of Mr.. Lester Woods
was a great shock to his many
friends. Though young in life he
will be greatly missed. How hard
it is to give up some loved one, but
God knows best. My heart is full of
love and sympathy for the bereaved
family. l would point you to Him
who sayeth: Il will never leave
thee; believe on Me and We shall
have eternal life" Meet Lester in
heaven, for he cannot come back to
you, but you can go to him. He
will be waiting and watching for
fyou on the golden shore. When
your heart is we'll nigh crushed with
its burden of sorrow think of the
happiness that is his, and remember
how much of earth's sadness and
suffering he has been spared. He
has gone to dwell in that land
where there is no more sickness,
sorrow nor death" Dear Lord, put
thine arms Of love around the be-
reaved ones, and teach them to say,
Thy will be done"

From which none ever wake to weep.

Against foolish clamor raised in
Georgia, and out of it, two years ago,
in regard to the votes of the famous
"23" democrats, six OF whom were
Georgians, The Telegraph stood firm
ly in the opinion that they were
right. 1t was on the issue raised
between Champ Clark and MAORI
ty and Fitzgerald and minority of
democrats in regard to rules. Sew
eral times since have those "23" been
INDICATED, but never more signally
than when the house organized the
other day.
The Associated Press did not cover
this question as fully as it might have
done at the time, but the Congress

particulars. 1t is seen that the reso-

One fncubator contained 1873 eggs.
The explosion did not seem to inter

the eggs, and 1856 matched out two
weeks after the explosion, but OF the
number 184 of the chickens were
found to be crippled. The general
