By pacing a mile in 2:04A at Nash
willie yesterday, Argot Hal goes into
history as the greatest speed horse
that ever existed. While he does not
cardy one drop of trotting blood in
his veins, he came down the Grand
Circuit in 1911 with an unbroken rec.
ord of Notwithstanding nine large
stakes and obtaining a record of
I2:O7k. That he could have trotted
in 2:05 was the belief of all horse
men.
Previous to obtaining his trotting
record of 2:07k, Argot Hal had pac-
ing record of 2:11A. But on yester-
day he reduced this to 2:O4A. He
was lame yesterday when he made
his appearance on the track, but if
he should show no bad symptoms
from his work, it is very probable
that he will be shipped to Lexington
with a view of still further lowering
his record. He now reads Argot Hal

ING WAR TO PREVENT DES-
EcRATloN BY GERMANS.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. a.
The famous statue of Venus de Milo
once more lies buried in the ground
this time in a secret grave, and the
priceless paintings in the world-famed
Louvre are screened with iron and
steel in order to protect them from
the German bombardment of Paris
which appeared to be imminent sever
al weeks ago, according to stories
told by tourists who have returned
here from the French capital.
The statue which was placed in the
Louvre in 1884, was removed from its
pedestal when the German approach
was announced. carefully packed In
straw, and then placed underground
in an iron box, the location of the
"interment" being known only to the
officials of the Louvre.
OF course it was impossible to hide
the paintings in similar manner and
out of the question to attempt the re-
moyal to Bordeaux, so the iron and
steel screens were decided upon as
the next best plan for their protection
and preservation.

HOW TO MAKE PROFIT
IN RAISING POULTY
UPON THE FARMS

MENT URGES THAT STRICT
ACCOUNTS BE KEPT.
UPON ALL INCOME and OUGO1
Eggs Every Day In Year Should Be
Standard at Which All Poultry
Raisers Should Am-Early Pul'ets
Should Be Fed Freely.
(By Capt. T. F. Peck.)

A little flock of poultry as a pas
of the country home may be consider
ed from various points of view. 1t l!
unquestionably a great convenience
A perennial supply of fresh eggs witt
broilers in season and pair of cock
rels of an old hen for the pot at com
mand for the rest of the year will
have a very important bearing on the
problem of marketing. With gar.
den the chances are great that at
times the hen will be a source of tor
ment; on the other hand they will
furnish an excellent compost, OF
high value of fruit, flowers or vege-
tables.
/ The final consideration should be:
Is the little flock good investment?
With it's otHer advantages does it pay
a cash profit? OF course there are
some birds that are always eating
heir heads off, others that earn a
good living and something over for its
owner. Only exact accounts will
show invariably which is which.
The first step is in keeping exact
accounts, in orGer to be able to COM
pare expenditure with income. To
know every month how much they
cost and what We are getting for the
money. OF course eggs and chick
ems used should be credited the same
as those sold. Otherwise there is no
business footing. With a flock Of
moderate size, the eggs will pay for
feed bought, but it is necessary to
know more than that.
Eggs every day in the year is the
standard to be reached with small
flock, but it Is not always reached.
The plan for getting these eggs can
not be started late in the fall, but
must be considered early in the
spring, for the early care of the in
coming pullets has much to do with
their usefulness as profit makers
when the time FOR eggs arrives.
The pullets that are to be early lay
ers must be literally fed and have
special attention during the laying
eason. 1t is the condition of the
flock about early frost that chiefly
decides the question of profit or loss
for the next three or four months
and they must Re taken in hand ear
ly in the spring when they are young
I you are to have them ready for
heir work when the time comes.
chickens grown in freedom have
doubtless an advantage in vigor over
hose kept in confinement and the
aluo of pullets as early layers de-
ponds largely upon this early develop
ment.

Has Advertised in Memphis Papers
to Take Girls From Cotton Section,
Their Expenses to Be Paid in Cot
ton at Ten Cents Per Pound.

At meeting of the directors of the
Columbia Board of Trade Monday aft,
ernoon at the Maury National Bank
1t was decided to request all the mer-
chants of the city, who contemplate
buying cotton to relieve the Southern
situation, to withhold their purchases
until DR.. Capers, president of the Co.
mmbia Institute, shall have seen
whether any of the patrons of the
school will be willing to send their
girls to school here If payment for
their tuition and other expenses for
the fall term is taken in cotton at 10
cents per pound.
The members of the board were a
unit in favor of the plan. DR.. Capers,
who was present and addressed the
meeting, stated that he had advertis-
ed in the cotton states to take girls
from those sections upon the above
conditions, and that he would be able
70 tell by the end Of this week wheth-
Or any effective results would be ac-
complished from such advertisements.
Many Of the merchants of the city
have signified their intention of buy
ing bales of cotton. If acceptance of
them by DR.. Capers as payment for
tuition were instrumental in bringing
. dozen or two dozen girls to the city,
this money for cotton would not
leave the city but would be spent here
by these girls at Columbia stores.
Otherwise, II each bale Is bought In
some Southern state at a distance
from here, the money would leave
here and no benefit would be gotten
by the town locally. The chances are
that some speculator would derive
the benefit OF the generosity of local
merchants in buying a bale to help
the general situation.
A meeting of the Board of Trade
will be held later in the week at
which time DR.. Capers will give a re-
port Of the results Of his advertising.
He was extremely grateful for the ef-
fort made by the board to help him
and the Institute.
