ERADICATION OF PEST.
Twenty-Five Counties in Mississippi
Free Of Cattle Ticks.

Reports have been received from the
inspectors Of the bureau OF animal In
dustry in twenty-one counties OF Mis-
sissippi. where the cattle tick has been
eradicated and the region released from
quarantine. The showing was that TICK
eradication had cost 30 cents per head
for the cattle. and that the increase In
value had averaged 81 per head
The total increase of the receipts Tor
the cattle business in the counties named
was s., $4,000 the first year. This in
crease. the department officials say, Will
be permanent or will increase so long
as the region is free OF ticks.
The department authorities say that
this spread Of the tick-free territory In
the south will make for the lower price
OF meat in this country. because while
the population and consequent meat con-
sumption have increased largely, the cat
tie supply has fallen off. With the elimi-
nation OF the cattle tick In the south.
these states which are the natural home
of cattle raising can take their proper
place in stock growing. and consequently
can largely increase the meat supply.

STILL DIRECTING FIRE
ON CURRENCY MEASURE
Insureent Democrats Hopeful Of Ell
fecting Material Amendments
in Advance of Final Action.

There will be no meeting of the
democratic caucus today, but the IN
Surgents of the currency committee
are taking heart at the progress their
IDEAS have made with the rest of the
party. After practically week of dis
cussion behind closed doors the views
Of Representative Ragsdale, Repre-
sentative Eagle and Representative
Henry have made considerable impress
sion upon the members of the House,
and when the bill is acted upon there
IS every possibility that it will con-
tain provisions which will be much
more favorable to the country borrow
or on farm products than at present.
Long Delay Probable.
The prospects are that the caucus
viii run through all of next week. be-
cause the attacks upon the bill are
long and vigorous. Fights for amend
rnents take up nearly all the time of
the discussion, and the defenders Of
the bill have had very little time to
get in any other work. The fight on
the measure started late yesterday
after Representative Borland OF Mis-
souri started out to analyze the bill
for the benefit OF the administration.
Representative Underwood was forced
once as the insurgents repeatedly in
terrupted the analysis.
Representative Hardwick of Georgia
was one of the chief assailants. He
said the bill provides one of the great
est money monopolies ever heard OF.

MUSICIANS UNION UPHELD.
A. F. of L. Rules Against Demand
Of Metal Polishers.

ST. LOUIS, August 16-Owen Miller.
secretary of the American Federation Of
Musicians, has been notified that the
executive council of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor had upheld the musi-
clans union in its protest against the
demand Of the metal pOlishers' union
that the musicians use only instruments
bearing the label of the metal polishers.
The metal polishers requested that the
musicians use only instruments bearing
the polishers' label, or else have a card
from the polishers permitting them to
use imported instruments.
The musicians opposed the demand OH
the ground that many of the best in
struments are made abroad. and that
several kinds are not manufactured in
the United States.

INDEMNITY NOT ENOUGH.
Japan Will Hold CALIFORNIA; Action
as q Grievance.

TOXIC. Japan. August 16.-It has
been announced here that the United
States has intimated readiness to favor
in principle the payment of an indem-
nifty to Japanese subjects who have
been affected by the California alien land
ownership legislation. The United
States has also recognized the right Of
Japan to adopt a measure similar to
the California bill.
From limitations given in official
circles it appears unlikely that Japan
will adopt either idea. What Japan
desires is permanent friendly relations
with the United States, and. therefore.
she seeks a fundamental solution of
the difficulty. If the United States has
no solution to offer. it is stated. Japan
will probably allow the matter to re-
main as a grievance.

Colors Direct From Object.

One valuable asset of the department
that has been developed in this line but
that has never been used in popular en-
tertainment is the making of colored Ian
tern slides in natural colors direct from
the object. This form of color photog-
raphy has been used in the department
for some time as matter of record,
photographs of fruits and flowers being
made i'm natural colors and the negatives
filed for reference.
ON stumbling block in the way of using
the color pictures for lantern slides was
that they were too dark and thick for
ordinary lantern illumination, but the
photographers have recently been able to
min out these negatives SO that they
can be projected by. ordinary stereopticon
light. This promises to largely increase
the field and reduce the expense of high
class stereopticon entertainment.

GETSPACKACE
UNDER NEW PARCEL RATE
Receives Fine Box of Choice
Peaches From Postmaster
General BurIeSon.

President Wilson was among the first
to receive a package under the new par
Gel post regulations permitting increased
size packages at reduced rates. 1t was
fine box of choice peaches. and it came
from no less a person than Postma ster
General Burleson himself.
The Postmaster General is firm be-
lever in the new rates which he has
adopted, and he has taken this means
to show his chief just what can be done
And when the President sinks his teeth
into one Of those fine. juicy peaches, the
finest in the city, he will undoubtedly
that Burleson does is all right. Anyhow,
the Postmaster General seems to know
the best way to keep on the good side
Of any one.
May Be Done by Farmers.
The idea Of Mr.. Burleson sending the
peaches by parcel post to the White
House was to demonstrate to the Presi-
dent how easy it would be for farmers
to transfer their products by parcel post.
The package weighed seventeen pounds
and as fortune had it, or maybe it was
by design, the postage came to just IL
cents. Now, of course, by this time the
Postmaster General must have known
that this was the Presidents lucky num-
Der, and maybe he wanted it to cost IL
cents just for that reason. But nobody
dares to directly charge that there was
a reason for the decent charge.
Accompanying the box was a note con-
gratulatory in nature and outlining the
possibilities of the parcel post service

Of the movies are of the sort for
scarcely more than parlor entertainment
and can be operated in any Sort Of I,
small meeting house or schoolroom
They throw picture only four feet
square and in fact reduce the moving
picture theater to a family sized basis.
This is u valuable feature in some of the
small and remote communities where but
small audience and small gathering
place is available. Any country school
room can be utilized.
No attempt has been made SO far to
develop the entertainment into anything
like a lecture. All of the pictures are de-
signed to be instructive, but some of
them arc intended to be amusing as well
One of the popular films deals with the
development of the house fly as concerned
in the handling Of food and dairy prod
ucts and the transmission Of disease. The
film also has its amusing side. showing
tho acrobatic fly enlarged to heroic pro-
portions rocking III IL rocking chair with
newspaper and spectacles and Juggling
barrels and other things ON his feet
One of the most serious problems in
connection with this and other sorts of
rural entertainment is transporting the
audience over the average country roads
in any but the best weather. This brings
in another feature of the department 5
rural work and gives room for slides and
pictures on road building and mainte-
nance go that it is intended ultimately to
develop the system with more still life
pictures and efficient lectures to extend
