Wayette will send fifty volumes. Can
you send five, ten, twenty or one hun

DR.. Low PROPOSES new PLAN
woULl RELIEVE PRESSURE DUR
ING FLOODS ON MISSISSIPPI.
Portion Of the Water From the Tennes-
see River Could Be Diverted to the
H~eadwaters of Tombigbee.

Jackson.-Dr. +. N. Lowe, state geolo-
gist, has evolved an unique plan to re-
lieve the Mississippi river of flood pres
sure during the high water periods,
which he intends to submit to the United
State engineering corps.
Briefly stated, DIR. Lowe would have a
portion of the current Of the Tennessee
river diverted from a point near the ex-
treme northeastern corner of Mississippi,
adjoining the Alabama line, to the head
waters of the Tombigbee river, and
thence through the Tombigbee and Ala
bama to the Mexican gulf. This, he be-
lieves, is not a difficult engineering feat,
nor would it involve a heavy cost, using
the channels of the Yellow, Big Bear
creeks. DR.. Lowe is of the opinion that
if a canal is cut from the Tennessee
river it will quickly furnish a good scour-
| ing current, and the waters will make
their way to the headwaters of the Tom
| bigbee without trouble.
Similarly, DR.. Lowe believes it would
be possible to divert a portion of The
current of the Red river into the Sabine
by cutting a canal not exceeding tel
miles in length, and allow the waters tt
pass to the Mexican gulf, relieving
great deal OF the pressure on the Missis
sippi during flood periods.

Killing With Electricity.

The French people. scientists as
we'll as owners Of slaughter houses
and Of beef, mutton and
pork, have become interested in expert
ments for the more humane killing of
animals-especially for food products
not only to save the creatures from
unnecessary pain, but to better the con-
dition of meats which go to the con-
sumner.
DR.. S. Leduc, who has been conduct
ing the experiments at the abattoir in
Nantes, has killed by electricity a
great number Of animals-oxen, bulls,
cows, horses, hogs, sheep, calves and
%dogs-using a current Of 110 volts
with an intensity of from 40 to sc
milliamperes. The current was inter
rupted 100 times per second, passing
each time during one-thousandth OF g
second. The result was satisfactory
but no detailed report has been made
because the experiments are to b
followed up at the abattoir at Rogens
burg and also In Germany.

Early AeropIanes.

Not so very long ago a deliver
among literary antiquities turned up a
notebook of Leonardo da Vinci's in
which appeared sketches of aero
planes, and now comes an amusing
Frenchman with citations to prove
that Dante must have flown. They are
genuine citations. You car find them
for yourself in the seventeenth canto
of the Inferno, where Dante and Vir-
gil go riding on the back Of an I'M
mense beast, which is obviously poetic
license meaning an aeroplane. Says
Virgil to Dante: Thou hast need to
show strength ana audacity;" then to
the alleged beast, Describe a wide
circle in descending" Says Dante:
1.-THE beast continued to descend
slowly, slowly, turning as he went
down. l was aware of motor
only because Of the wind that whis
tied around me and over my head
. I ventured to look down {
moment, but was chilled with tel
ror." @. E. D.

Had No Acknowledgement.
ors Responsible.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of two buu,
dred stock owners in the Monterev
~neighborhood a few miles from Florence
in Rankin county appealed to Governor
Brewer to give them relief from the on.
forcement of the tick eradication laws
but were informed that the governor
had no power to act in the case one wav
or another.
There has been strong feeling against
the dipping requirements in that neigh.
borhood since they went into effect about
June. One man has been tried for not
dipping his cattle according to law, but
his suit was not considered a test case
because he had dipped his cattle every
two weeks in a vat on his own place.
Despite this fact great joy was mani.
tested by the spectators when he won
his case, many of them throwing their
hats into the air and cheering Justify.
This demonstration was prompted by
the prejudice against the enforcement
Of the law.
This feeling resulted in a petition
against the enforcement of the law for q
longer period than 1870 days, which time
was at first announced as the limit OF
the dipping season in that county.
The petitioners were told at the gov.
errors office that Gov. Brewer had nc
power to act in the case, that the Law
made it possible for the board of super
visors in each county to enforce the ticl
eradication law at their discretion ant
when the eradication was once begun il
the county it was under the joint super
vision of the board OF supervisors an,
Of the federal inspector in charge.
"You will have to 60 back to you
board of supervisors" the petitioer
were told. The people OF that commr
nifty are determined to fight the law an
the inspectors are equally determined t
enforce it.
The people assert that they believ
in dipping, but they want to do it a
their own discretion. The main thin
that they are fighting is the purpose c
the inspectors to contienue the dippin
until December l. Unless something
done soon it appears that trouble wi

BUMPER CORN CROP.
State Will Raise $4,000 Bushels on One
Farm.

Jackson.-There is no longer any doubt
that Mississippi is going to harvest one
of the very biggest corn crops in her
history, and that in spite of the destruc'
ton of thousands of acres of young corn
by grass worms, especially in the delta
or overflowed districts. But for the
worms there would not have been cleared
land enough on which to pile the corn.
DR.. j. C. Gathings, superintendent OF
the penitentiary, estimates the corn crop
on the state convict farm at from no.
600 to lis 5000 bushels. Fine judges OF
corn crops assure us that indications
there point to a crop Of at least 2oo,Ooo
bushels.

Volta gave birth. but only the student
knows that alongside the cleaning

AS far back as 1864 the gentle Ital-
Ian physician P~acinotti introduced tim
idly to public notice a small electro
magnetic machine, with toothed ring
armature, which, he pointed out with
prophetic instinct, was available both
as a motor and as a generator. And
then nothing happened! But when
the celebrated Gramme dynamo with
its ring armature arrested universal
attention, seven years later, the unob-
trusive professor dug up his treatise
and his machine and showed beyond a
doubt he was entitled to the credit Of
the discovery, although he lacked the
essential driving power to turn it into
a device useful to mankind.
There perhaps lies the lesson Of his
