In this structure the meal was
mashed and went through the nee

tillation completed.
To the left of the distillery are
still to be seen the ruins of the fur
mace where the still was located. The
water necessary for the manufacture
of the whiskey was furnished by a
never failing spring of ice-cold
water. which poured from the rocks
a short distance from the distillery.

yield more than gallon of liquor,
but, Notwithstanding this fact
enough was made to enable Richie

He would form a company among
his neighbors and loading flatboats
with his product. which was incased

proceeds Richie would purchase
flour, cloth and other household
necessaries, which would be trans

HEAVY COST ENTA|LEO
ON KILLING SOLDIERS
Runs Very High-Deduction
As Per Some Past
Experiences.

Writing In LA Science and La
Vic" General Percin, of sthe French
army, figures the cost of killing a
man by modern warfare.
Z The cost of killing man is OBJ
tanned by dividing the total cost of
a war to any of the belligerents by
the number of men killed on the 9TH
er side.
In 1S70-1s7i France spent $780,
10000 in the actual expenses of the
war Repairing materials and CIV
ing succor to the victims of the war,
expenses that are Justly to be added
cost another 100000, 700. France
paid 81 1000, 100000 as war indemni-
ty, plus another 100000, 900 in in
terest on the sum, loss of revenue,
forced contributions by the enemy
and upkeep of the German army of
occupation. This third category of
expenses. not being inevitable in all
wars, cannot properly be included.
On similar basis here are some
facts about other wars:
Russo-Turkish War (1S77-1S7S) /;
Turkey, 100000, 900.
Russo-Japanese War G9O5); Rus
STA, 81 2OO,OO0.0OO.
The number of men killed. or who
died of wounds in these wars were:
Franco-Prussian War-Germans
2S,6OO.
Russo-Turkish war-Russians.
16,6OO.
Russo-JaPanese War-Japanese,
$500.
Whence it results that the cost of
killing each man was as follows:
In 1S7O-1S71, $4,000.
In 1S77-1S7S, $4,000.
ln 1905, $2O,4OO.
What will be the greatest number
and reduce the effective force most
will be not the rifle or cannon, but
fatigue, typhus or cholera.
In 1870. $4,000 Germans entered
the hospitals. Although they did
not die of their illnesses, they We're
none the less made useless for GER
tain time. In the Crimean War the
allied armies lost four times as many
men through disease as were killed
in battle. This proportion was to
I among the Russians in 1S77-1S7S;
it was only l to 2 among the Japan
csc in Manchuria. thanks to their
excellent hygiene.

concerning a circulating medium.
Provisional President Carranza
has notified the authorities of ports
other than Vera Cruz that Vera Cruz
is closed as port on account of the
occupation of the city and harbor by
the American forces.
Reports received from the south
are not reassuring concerning the
exact whereabouts of Gen. Telloz,
who with 5000 men of the old army
is said to have revolted at Salina
Cruz and marched northward.
A train on the Vera Cruz and
lsthmus railroad was fired on to-day

declared his action was decided upon

duly elected successor in 1916"

(By Peter Radford. National Lee
turer Farmers Educational and Co
Operative Union of America
Where there is silo there is
prosperity
There is not enough of the COM
munity spirit among our rural dis
tricts.
The laws relating to business are
wholly unsuited to the tranactions
of the farmer.
The waste of effort through i'm
practical methods of farming is the
greatest tragedy of the age.
Something is wrong in our
marketing system when a small crop
brings more money than bountiful
one.
Cooperation between practical
farmers and proficient business men
will eliminate ignorance and preju-
dice.
The nations menu must be made
up from the fields. pastures, orchards
and gardens. and to farm intelli-
gently the farmer must know what
is needed.
We must give the same care and
consideration to system of CO.
operative laws. extending to the
farmer the facilities adapted to his
business, that is now afforded cor
porations.
Farm tenancy is the greatest men
ace now confronting the nation and
can only be checked by affording the
tenant and the laborer facilities for
acquiring property and by reducing
the high rates of interest which are
now sapping the vitality of agricul-
ture.
Under the present system of
marketing farm products. it is pos
sible and often occurs, that people
in one part of the United States lit
orally starve for the want of pro-
ducts while the same product in an
other part of the nation is wasting
for want of market.
