Potatoes From Maine.

The United States department of az

they are duly certified as fit for either
table or seed use and are packed in ac-

Today also there are many women,

that they need some addition to their

of our ancient industries offers an al

Is it not generally the 0 sensible

Why not. then. make a careful study
Of the farm conditions right at hand
in order to find out whether there may
not be some fruit or vegetable product
going to waste that can be utilized by
the excellent modern methods of can

may be economically supplied with
delicacies all the year round. and some
extra quantities may be sold that will
bring a good income? Something like
this should be possible for any ener-

though this body Of eager. huoyant
young women might add something
valuable to the welfare Of u rural
life?

YOUTH CAUGHT IN

Child Meets Horrible Death on Sand Mountain When
 Caught in Machinery

collinsville August 7.-(Special.) ) At Kirkpatrick on Sand mountain yes- terday morning. Momer, the 10-year- old son of Mrs. Parlee Harrelson, was caught in line shaft and so badly injured that he died last night at s o'c1ock
 The boy was playing around the ma chinery when his clothing caught on the shaft and he was whirled around at great speed. Both his legs were broken and he received other horrible cuts and bruises before the machinery could be stopped.
 --~~~~~ capital in abundance will be invested in the working of the very rich mines of that republic. The possibilities in Mexico as a gold producing country are believed to have been underestimated. With the opening of the Panama canal to naviga- ton and with the development of trans portation facilities from the Pacific coast of South America to the interior, particu- larly to Bolivia, it is thought that there will be a large development of gold min ing, and it is possible that the day will come when South America will be found to be among the chief gold producers of the world, unless some new fields be dis covered in South Africa There are no indications that new and extensive gold fields will be discovered within the boun- daries of the United States, although we shall for many years mine large amount each year.

WORST OF FINANCIAL
 STRESS IS PASSED
Business Is With Remarka- ble Resistance Adapting
 Itsel ito Conditions

New York, August 7.-Dunn's review will say tomorrow:
 Business is, with remarkable re- sistence, adapting itself to unprece- dented conditions. Never has this coun- II try given more convincing proof of its ability to meet grave emergencies promptly and effectively Already con spicuous progress has been made in the work of preventing demoralization in the markets and preserving order and sanity in all branches of trade. 50 far as this favored country is concerned the worst of the financial stress is over and the markets gradu-
 ally are getting into a position where
 material advantage may be derived from l the disturbance. The interruption to export trade. due to the situation in foreign exchange and the withdrawal of ocean shipping facilities, is now the chief cause of trouble, export freights beginning to pile up at shipping cen ters, but concerted measures are being
 taken to relieve this condition as far as practicable
 Commercial failures for the week in the United States were 35S; compared with 265 last year; in Canada g.,

When Business Opens up in Mexico Great Quantity of Gold Will Flow to the United States
 From That Republic
By HOLLAND

New York, August 7.-(Special) )-When the movement of gold from this country to France and London was at it's height there came from Washington report that $500 O00 in freshly mined gold had been received from Alaska. It was thought worthy of special comment because the amount was larger than had before been received at one time from the Alaskan gold fields.
 Occasionally reference was made to the receipt of this gold when the question was asked, how much longer can the United States afford to ship gold to Eu- rope. and what sum will be regarded as an amount in excess of the safety line? It was said that we are likely to receive from Alaska in 12 months approximately s20,- 1000 of gold. We are also likely to mine in the present calendar year and in the mines of the United States proper an amount which. with the Alaska gold, will bring the total for the year up to about s9O.ooo,ooo, perhaps a little more If there be deducted from the figures which show the total amount of gold exported within F months the figures which show the total amount imported in that time, then it will be found that our fresh sup

ALABAMA FARMEES LEARN
 ABOUT PECAN INDUSTRY

Auburn, August 7.-(Speeial.) )-Thurs- days session of the farmers summer school at Auburn opened with an increas- Ing attendance and continued interest.
 Alex McRae of F1orala delivered a short talk on oceans. He gave the best method of planting and told about the pests that infested pecan trees, how to detect faults, buds and gratis on seed llngs. He explained his idea about the best varieties for the gulf coast coun- try.
 Prof J. C. Price delivered a lecture on the cultivation, planting and marketing of Irish potatoes. He also discussed the methods of getting rid of potato bugs, wilt and scab
 The sheep industry was discussed by Henry Clarke of Wartrace, Tenn. MT. Clarke advised the farmers to use the na- tive Alabama ewes and obtain full blood southdown bucks, using one buck for every 30 or 35 ewes. He strongly advised the Alabama farmer to set his lamb on the eastern markets. By so doing they would bring fancy prices and make more money for the farmer.

MISSISSIPPI PROUD
 OF CORES SUCCESS
Oklahoma Senator Was Once Page in Mississippi Legislature-Both
 Eyes Shot Out

Jackson. Miss. August 7.-(SpeciaI.) ) The ,renomination of Senator Thomas P. Gore of Oklahoma is matter of congratulation for great many Mis- sissippians. He was bred and born in this state his father being a member of the legislature from Webster coun- ty for more than one term and 25 years ago Tom Gore was a page in the Mississippi legislature. He was a bright and sprightly lad.
 It was during one of the sessions of the legislature that young Gore. while frolicking around with other boys Of his age, lost one of his eyes The deadly pistol did the work. Later, dur ing vacation, a companion shot out the ther eye with a .22-cabilre rifle and Tom Gore was totally blind before he reached mans estate. But he never let his misfortunes get the better of him. continuing to read and study and de- termined to make something of him self, the reading being by proxy, of course.
 II was during the early struggles of Gore that he came down to Jackson as delegate to a state convention and as populite. He took prominent part In the convention. making the biggest and strongest speech of the session He poured the warmest kind of shot into the democratic ranks. but the odds were against him and his crowd went down in defeat Shortly after that con- yehtion Gore went to Texas and Mis- sissippi lost sight of him until he was named as senator from the new state of Oklahoma.
 Mississippi had not been particularly proud of the young populist until that time, but she is now and is congrat- ulating him on his reelection to the United States Senate.
