RICE STRAW PRESS
 TO BE DEMONSTRATED
COTTON BELT IS PREPARING TO SHOW HOW WELL IT CAN BE
 SHIPPED.
Press Is At Stuttgart and Can Press Rice Straw To a Density of 60
 Pounds To Cubic Foot,

l.. D. Saupe, assistant industrial and immigration agent of the Cotton Belt, was in the city yesterday and announced that a free demonstration of new process of bailing rice straw for shipment to paper mills will be given at Stuttgart today.
 A Lowry round bale cotton press, weighing 24,O00 ponds and operated by power, is now being installed on tine lot between Rice Mill A and the Cotton Belt station. H. c. Blacknaan, with the Murray Gin Co.,, of Dallas Texas, manufacturers of the press, is ill charge of the machine.
 tMr. Saupe stated that the machine will press rice straw to a density of 60 pounds to the cubic foot. A bale 36 inches high and IS inches in dia- meter will weigh 300 pounds and if the wires were cut with the bale plac- ed lengthwise on a smooth floor, it would expand twenty feet.
 By using this method of pressing straw the load of an ordinary car will be almost doubled as it is claimed 100000 pounds of straw can be placed in a car when baled in this manner. This means less cars will be needed for shipping straw, which is generally at a time when cars are scarce. The Cotton Belt has already reduced the freight rate on rice straw. and expect to make further concessions. sai
 This press is to be operated solely as demonstration of what can be done in preparing rice straw for ship ment. The Cotton Belt issmaking this test at it's own expenses and invites everybody to visit the press and watch it work

NJ EW YORK.-New York always
IN has had the reputation Of being
the city to offer more queer ways OF
making a living than any other In
the world. The other day 1t earned
another laurel and the medium was
a rather seedy but cunning-looking In
dividual who got of a Lenox avenue
train at the seth street subway sta
ton and Immediately set to work.
The man, who shall be known as
Bill, started at the downtown end of
the station and carefully examined
every penny in the slot gum machine
that by means. Of it's mirror lures
vain young persons into spending one
cent to fix their hair or powder their
noses and gives a premium of a slab
Of gum.
Now these automatic vendors do
not always work, consequently earnest
gum chewers have lost faith in them
to a certain extent-to such an extent
that they seldom look into the tiny
receptacle at the very bottom of the
machine which is to catch the re-
funded cent In case the gum supply
has become exhausted.
"How's business today" asked the
gateman as Bill stopped to mix pleas
ure with his business.

ONLY ONE IDEA IN HIS MIND
French Bookworm Travelled $50 Miles
In Gown and Slippers to Buy
Priced Volume.

None of the deeper human passions
is more absorbing than the blameless
one that a book-lover feels for the
inanimate object of his affection. A
French paper illustrates this fact In
psychology by the following story:
A bookworm living at Bordeaux.
while glancing through the catalogue
Of a Paris bookseller. saw the title OF
a book that he had greatly desired for
so years. He looked at the clock and
found that there was just time to
catch a train for Paris. He seized
some money from his cash box. rush
ed OF to the station, and arrived at
the bookshop in time to secure the
prize. AS the shopman wrapped up
the book. he remarked:
81 suppose you live In this street
monsieur"
mo. have just come from Bor.
deaux," was the reply.
The mans look Of establishment
caused the bibliophile to realize that
he had travelled $50 miles in his dress
ing gown and slippers, and had never
noticed the incongruity In his attire
