consumed every business building
on the west side of the railroad. All
Of the buildings except the bank
being frame structures, the fire
burned rapidly, and threatened
even to cross the tracks and sweep
away The other section of town.
Port Gibson was appealed to fol
help. and every available automo-
bile was pressed into service to
take willing helpers over the ten
miles Intervening between the two
places. However, nothing could
be done until the fire, unable to
span the dividing line, the rail-
roads right of way, burned out.
& The fire originated in the old
store building of ]. D. MiIlsaps &
iCo., where was stored 1890 bush

corn, quantities of hay and other
produce. 1t then reached the

Il May Fla Library or De Told In a

Anatole France tells us the story OF
certain Eastern king, who was young
and conscientious when he assembled
the throne Of his fathers. and therefore
calling together the most learned doc
tors in the land he babe them write a
history OF mankind. for, be said, ''if

story Of things past and OF kingdoms
come and gone The doctors bowed
and went their way.
Thirty years passed, and the king
had forgotten his command, when to
his palace came a train Of fifty camels
bearing each ten mighty volumes. The
king asked the chief doctor. Zeb, what
the train might mean.
1T is the history OF mankind" re-
piled the sage.
The king babe them return and
abridge the history so that he might
read it and not spend the residue Of
his life upon the task.
Ten years more passed when the
doctors returned with i've camels bear
ing each ten mighty volumes. The
king. grown old and irritable, babe
them to abridge the history into one
book, '.for." said he, II have great
desire to read the history before die"
The doctors began their toll again.
Many died, and while the book was
still unfinished, the king. too, fell sick
with q mortal malady. On his death
bed he summoned Zeb, for a consum-
ing desire had come upon him to know
the history before his spirit left him.
The doctor came.
Il die in sorrow" said the king, ''foF

AS the king sank back the doctor

Seeing From the Top OF the Sierras 70
Mount Sparta.
The distance at which flashes from
the heliograph and other objects can
be discerned by the eye depends on
two things, the height and the clear
ness Of the air.
IN Mexico the air is said to be clear
Ell than anywhere else in the world.
AT any rate. It Is the only country
where a view extending to 200 miles
can be obtained. BY climbing to the
top Of the Sierra mountains the lonely
peak Of Mount Sparta can be seen It
would take four hours by express train
to reach it.
Mount Everest, In the Himalayas, is
the tallest mountain In the world.
From DarjeeIing the gigantic cone Of
Everest Is seen rising in snowy gran

any stranger would vow that It was
not more than thirty or forty miles
away. As a matter Of fact. the dis

Summer Constipation Daugerous

Constipation in Summer time is
more dangerous than in the fall,
winter or spring. The food you
eat is often contaminated and is
more likely to ferment in your
stomach. Then you are apt to
drink much cold water during the
hot weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Collie, Fever, PtOmaine

Good Roads and Good Crops Gov.
ernment Gives Facts and
Figures.

That an improved road will increase
vastly the productiveness of the area
through which II runs has now been
satisfactorily demonstrated by studies
conducted by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture in Virginia. Condi
tions in Spottsylvania county were inves-
tigated with particular care and the re-
Suits have proved surprising In 1909
the county voted $roo,ooo to improve 40
mileaof roads,
Two years after the completion of this
work the railroad took away in II months
from Fredericksburg the county seat.
u, 900 tons of agricultural and forest pro-
ducts hauled over the highways TO that
town. Before the improvement Of the
roads this total was only 4o. 900 tons an
nually; in other words the quantity Of
the county's produce had risen more than
as per cent.
Still more interesting, however, is the
increase shown in the quantity Of the
dairy products. In 1909 these amounted
to ia 8I5 pounds, in 1911 to a73.oa8
pounds, an increase of partially 40 per
cent. In two years In the same time
shipments of wheat had increased SO per
cent. tobacco 81 per cent. and lumber
and other forest products as per cent
IN addition to this increase in quantity
the cost of hauling each ton Of produce
was materially reduced. In other words
the farmers not only produce more, but
produce more cheaply, for the cost of
transportation to market is of course, an
important factor in the cost of produc-
ton. From this point Of view it is esti-
mated that the $Ioo. 900 spent in improv-
ing the roads in Spottsylvania county
saved the farmers of that county $4,000
year.
In the past two years the traffic studies
of the Federal experts show that approx
mately an average of $4,000 tons Of out
going products were hauled over the i'm
proved roads in the county an average
distance Of 8 miles. or total Of sac. 900
"ton-miles.'' Before the roads were i'm
proved II was estimated that the average
cost of hauling was 20 cents s'ton-mile'';
after the improvement this fell to IL
cents s'ton-mile'' Or d saving OF cents.
a saving Of 5 cents per mile On sac. 900
ton miles" is $4,000 year. The
county 3 investment of $Ioo,o 900 10 other
words returns a dividend of 40 per cent.
annually.
Because this saving, in cases of this
character, does not take the form OF cash
put directly into the farmers pocket
there is widespread tendency to believe
that i is fictitious profit, while as mat
ter Of fact. it is just as real source oil
profit as the increase in the price in
wheat.
In Dinwiddie county, Virginia. for ex-
ample where peanuts Is one Of the staple
crops, the average load for two mules on
q main road was about 1000 pounds be.
fore the road was improved. After its
improvement the average load was found
to be 1000 pounds and the time consum.
ed in hauling the largest load TO market
was much reduced. In other words. one
man with a wagon and two mules could
do more than twice as much work with
the improved road than with an nm
improved road This is the explanation
Of the extraordinary rise in the total out
put Of agricultural products In county
with good road system.
