'Zepplin Idea Born In Amer
ica.

Though the United States is
not regarded as military pow
er, many of the most wonderful
advances IN implements and
tactics of warfare have come
either directly or indirectly from
American minds. Even the idea
which later resulted in the inven.
ton of the dirigible by a foreign.
er was born in the United States,
and in the South.
Young Zeppelin. lieutenant
in the Prussian army, came to
the United States in 1868 as a
military attache and was assign
ed to the Army of the Mississ.
ippi. He was with Grant in his
campaign against Vicksburg and
witnessed for the first time the
use of captive balloon for mill
tary purposes. The young Prus-
sian was permitted to go up in
one of these balloons, and when
he decended his enthusiasm was
so marked that he began to give
this branch of warfare the bulk
Of his attention.
Zeppelin returned to his native
land and covered himself with
military glory during the Franco
Prussian war, where he rose to
high rank. But his mind was
never far away from aeronautics,
and in 1892 he directed his whole
time to the study of military
balloons, Thus from the inspir-
alton from that first ascension
from Mississippi soil, grew the
great diriglbles that are now so
dreaded by the foes of Germany.

A FIGURING Mill.

We have heard it talked that
there is q good prospect of hav.
ing established in our city a mill
for grinding wheat. We pre-.
sumo that there would be nc
trouble about getting persons IN,
terested if enough of our farm
ers would give assurance of
planting SO much wheat for the
mill to grind next summer and
fall. There will be a demand
for all the wheat that can or will
be grown IN our immediate neigh
borhood, county and state; yes,
the entire South.
If the farmers will send to the
News their names and the num-
Der of acres that they propose TO
plant, we will pnbnsh all names
as a matter of encouragement
for others.
Start the ball to rolling for
this is the month to SOW wheat.
The sale of wheat in this coun-
try would put money IN circula-
tion from three to four
months earlier than cotton un
der the most fortunate conditions.
The same with oats. There is
no reason for disbursement. If
the people at home are not pre-
pared to buy wheat they will be
as the cotton buyers, buy for
those of the general market.
Grow these cereals and be inde-
pendent. Try it and you will
never regret 1T.
