PREPARE MEAT FOR SHIPMENT
South American FrIgorificos VIII Soon
Be Turning Out an Immense
Supply of Food.

A frigorifico is a freezing plant in
South America. 1t is a plant that
freezes fat cattle or sheep or lambs
and sends them in refrigerated ships
northward to Europe. Perhaps later
they will send them to the United
States.
On the Island of TERRA del Fuego,
far south to the jumping off place,
sheep get very fat on the good grass
Incredible as it may seem, a short
time ago fine fat sheep were boiled
down for their tallow. Now a mod
ern frigorifico Is prepared to kill them
and send them north of the equator.
There is another of these newly erect
ed frigorificos at Rio Gallegos, an
other little way up the coast at San
Julian and other new ones are at
Bahia Blanca.
These frigorificos make possible the
directing Of a great stream OF good
lamb and mature mutton northward,
and we here may expect to see it
come, sooner or later. Cattle are not
killed at these southern frigorificos,
but farther north, near Buenos Aires
and in Uruguay are great establish
ments that kill chiefly cattle. To facili.
tate the getting Of sheep to the
frigorificos the government is build.

CALLED LOW CLASS OF ART
Sweeping Indictment Of Music to
Which Song "Home, Sweet Home"
Has Been Set.

Though the oldest piece Of English
music in existence, Summer Ia leu
men in" is quite modern in compari-
son with a score of the "Orestes" of
Euripides, dating from the fourth GEN.
fury B. c., which was exhibited at the
international exhibition of music at
Vienna some years ago. Even more
ancient is the chant THE Blessing of
the Priest" which was sung in the
temple Of Jerusalem before the captiv-
ity, and is still in use in the Jewish
synagogIes in Spain and Portugal.
Home, Sweet Home"-the song of a
homeless American-once moved Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson to an outburst OF
passionate protest. But it was the
music rather than the words that
reused his indignation. You will find
the passage In ACROSS the Plains:
have no idea whether unsteady this
air is to be considered good or bad;
but 1t belongs to that class of art
which may best be described as a bru-
tai assault upon the feelings. Pathos
must be relieved by dignity of treat
ment, declares an English writer. II
you wallow naked in the pathetic, like
the author of Home, Sweet Home"
you make your hearers weep In an Ia
manly fashion, and even yet while
they are moved they despise them.
selves and hate the occasion Of their
weakness.

Ownership of Land Accretion,


The title of an owner of land to any
accretions to the land was the ques-
ton presented to the supreme court
of appeals Of Virginia in Eggborn vs..
Smith, in which interesting decisions
on the point involved are cited. In the
Virginia case the plaintiffs husband
for a consideration permitted a rail-
road company to deposit rock and
earth on land owned by him during
double-tracking work, under contract
that all such material not removed be-
fore the work was completed should
remain permanently. The owner exc
cuted a deed of trust of the land with
out serving the material so deposited,
but on the day the property was sold
under foreclosure ofe the trust deed
he attempted to convey the material
as personally to the complainant. The
court found that the complainant had
made no claim to the property until
five years after its deposit, when it
was overgrown with vegetation, and
held that 1.-THE material was realty and
not personal property, and passed to
the purchaser on foreclosure of the
trust deed"

Honor Man Struck by LiqhtnIna.


To be struck by lightning is still q
most lucky thing for the Greek peas
ant-if he is not killed. Such a man,
says J. G. Lawson, may indulge q
taste for idleness for the rest of his
life-his neighbors will support him
and enjoy at the same time the rep
utation OF being something more than
human" This is an inheritance from
ancient days. Artemidorus, an au-
thority on occult matters who flourish
ed in the time Of Marcus Aurelius,
commented on the fact that while a
place WAS struck by lightning had an
altar erected upon 1t, and was thence
forth both honored and avoided, mo
one who has been struck by light
ming is excluded from citizenship; in
deed, such one is honored even as
god" The election of Quintus Ju-
Illus Eburnus to the consulship in 116
b. G. is attributed to his having been
favored thus by the gods.

CARSON CITY APPEAL
TO CHANGE HANDS

The Carson City Appeal will
change hands the. LIST of November.
James T Green who has leased the
paper the last three years and made
a corking good newspaper for a
town the size of Carson says he had
views of his own and would not
allow either politicians or others to
control the utterances in his paper,
therefore the owner of the plant
has given him thirty days notice
to vacate the pr emises. In his an.
nouncement of the Forthcoming
change Editor Green says:
The Appeal is about to undergo
another of it's periodical changes.
1t has been the history of the paper
during the past several years of its
existence that changes in manage
ment must occur every SO often or
oftener. 1t has been voiced as
great surprise to the majority of
the people Of this city and to many
throughout the state that the pres
ent management has been able to
retain control for so long period
three years without interruption.
This has been possible by hard
work, strict attention to business
and a square deal for everybody
regardless of whom this square
deal" policy hurt in some quar-
tiers.
Mrs S P Davis, owner of the
plant has served the required thir-
'ty days notice and complied with
the other provisions of the lease as
therein stimulated that the present
lease will terminate on the first
day of the coming November. This
is all right and in keeping with
provision of the lease now held by
the present management. That is
not our affair and concerns US
but little. The change does not
come as a great surprise as it was
in the general course of things
inevitable sooner or later and we
have also heard whispering for
some tine mast, and believe we
pretty thoroughly understand the
deal.
We were given the present lease
at a time when several others
were after it; was also assured that
it was ours practically as long as
we wished it but we know of just
one reason why the present man.
agement was not entirely satisfact-
ory-we have views of our own
and cannot be CONTROLLED" politi-
cally or otherwise. That tells long
story liz a few words.
To those who assume charge on
the first of November if they ex-
pect to make both ends meet, f.
nancally, they have our sincere
sympathy but at the same time our
best wishes.

GOVERNMENTS
GUEST DEAD

Lester Bryant, Boy Corn Grow
er of Kentucky, is Asphyxiat-
ed.
Lester Bryant, 21 years old,
of Rockfield, KY, winner of one
of the prizes offered by the de-
partment of agriculture to the
young corn growers of the
country, was found dead in bed
at rooming house at 3O1 Della
ware avenue, northeast, Satur-
day afternoon, says The Wash
ington Post of Saturday. He
was one of those who a few
days ago accepted the govern
ment's invitation to come to the
capital.
The room was filled with il
Eliminating gas. Coroner Nevitt
is investigating, and inclines to
the belief that the young man
was accidentally asphyxiated.
He engaged the room only the
night before. Saturday after
noon the proprietress went to
his room to see why he had not
appeared and found his door
locked. She summoned a po-
liceman, who forced open the
door. The young roomer was
lying undressed in bed with a
cover over him. The coroner
thinks he may have left the gas
burning low, and that the wind
blew it out.
The body was taken to the
morgue and relatives notified.

stock instead of buying their
meat in the West. Work up
to the position of feeding your
self, he said. And an addition
al reason for raising live stock
he stated, was the fact that
the very best of fertilizers on
the face of the earth is found
in the barnyard, and should be
put back on the land"
He declared there was a meat
shortage in the United States
and mentioned that in Chicago
steers were bringing from 50 to
II cents pound.
CAN RAISE STEERS.
II think you in the South can
raise steers cheaper than we in
Iowa." he continued, because
you have a milder winter. But
you will have to grow grasses
for the steers to eat. We have
had this in mind and have been
searching the world for grasses
for you people to grow and
your steers to eat. We have
gone to the Libyan desert in
Africa and found grasses there
which we think are just what
you want"
Mr.. Wilson touched on a va
riety of agricultural subjects
in his address-commercial
fertilizers, the prevention of
losses through drought, dairy
ing and the work of corn and
and the work of the corn and
tomato clubs-but he reverted
again and again to the desir-
ability of stock raising in the
South.
Don't believe that prosper
ity will come from growing
grain and selling it," he said in
conclusion. 81 don't want YOU
to sell a bushel of that corn.
Feed it every bit and sell high
er products"
After he had resumed his
seat an aged man in the audi
ence asked Mr.. Wilson how
farmers could get rid of hog
cholera. Mr.. Wilson told of the
discovery of a serum by a
young Southern scientist, Mr..
Dorsey of Tennessee, which, he
said, won't cure a sick hog, but
will prevent a we'll hog from
getting sick" "And the next
thing to do" he said, " is to get
the people to use it. THE
