sufficient knowledge OF Italian 90
avail himself of the privilege under
the italian law to be the first and
last to address the Jurors before
whom he is to be tried on the
charge of murder.
Sympathy for the accused youth
has been demonstrated frequently
during his detention~in the San Don
memo jail, since extraditton FROM the
United States last August. WhfIe
Charlton has been studying the
language of the country his lawyers
have been working up public opinion
in his favor The effect Is apparent.
Visitors to the jail are many and
privileges have been granted to the
prisoner by the director and Keepers
of the Jail. His meals are served

daily exercise in the court yard o.
the Palace of Justice have kept hin
in fine health. ~

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Mar. 30
The southern states at one time
years ago produced large numbers
OF hogs and cured practically ali OF
the bacon necessary to feed the peo-
Pile. At the present time the same
cannot be said Of single southern
state and OF but few counties in any
of the states. Their is one county in
Georgia, however. that is showing
others what can be done in raising
hogs. BROOKS county holds the dis-
tinction of producing and selling
mora bacon than any other county

I,ast YEAR Brooks county

Last year Brooks county raised
the meat, necessary for home con-
sumption. shipped out several car
loads OF hogs, and in addition sold
$50, 900 pounds of bacon at an aver
age price of fourteen cents a pound.
This year it is estimated that BROOKS
county will sell 100000 pounds OF
bacon in addition to what is needed
for home consumption, and the large
number of hogs shipped to the NOR
kets. About 1000 head of TAT
cattle will also be marketed from
the county. The raising of Live stock
has not been accomplished at sac
rifice OF other crops, but has been
produced in addition to the regular
crops, with the result that those VINO
have taken up this. line OF work are
becoming the leading and the most
nrosperous farmers in the county
The cash receipts for the live stock
and bacon sold from the county is
near $500. 900.
What Is being done nBroolSs coun-
ty 1t is believed could be done in ev-
ery county in the South. This would
nut the farmer on better financial
footing because he would not be de-
pendent upon cotton as his sole cash
crop Bacon can be made most
profitable cash crop which can be
marketed m early spring when far
mers are so often in need of ready
money
The boys OF Brooks county have
manifested great interest IN the or
ganization of pig clubs and an eX-
ceedingly crsditable exhibit Will
probatbly be made by the boys at the

NEW LIGHTING PLANS
UP TO COMMITTEE
Meeting VIII Be Held Soon to Con-
slider Changes; Councilman
Frank Stees Returns

With the return this morning of
Councilman Frank Stees, a member of
the town property committee, who has
been out of town since the last council
meeting, it is likely that action on the
proposed changes in the borough street
lighting system will be hastened.
joint meeting of the town prop
erty and finance committees and Rob-
ert w. Hoy. of the Harrisburg Light
and Power Company, will be called to
arrange the final plans for the pro-
posed changes. This meeting has been
scheduled for some time, but the alb
sence of committeeman has made it
necessary to postpone the conference
1t is proposed to do away with the
present style of lights in a number of
places and to install in their places
100-candIepower incandescents on long
metal arms. 1t Is also proposed to
change the location of many lights to
secure better distribution. Many addi-
tional lights will also be installed ia
the foreign districts. 1t is hoped that
this will lessen the disorder now pre-
Vailing in these sections.

FOR SOUR STOMACH
GAS OR INDIGESTION
Surely Use Mi-o-na-Immediate,
Safe and Effective Relief
or Money Refunded

When you have heartburn, pains in
the pit of the stomach and taste sour
and undigested food it's a sure sign
your last meal is not digesting, but
fermenting, causing poisonous gases,
sourness and acid stomach. Such
symptoms must not go unheeded, for
they indicate indigestion, which will
surely destroy your health and hap
piness.
Prompt and lasting relief for any
stomach distress is a simple inexpen-
sive matter IL you will only try the
harmless Mi-o-na prescription easily
obtained from any druggist.
Mi-o-na is especially prepared to
neutralize excess acid, absorb the
poisonous gases and stop fermentation
which surely sours your food causing
sick headache, dyspepsia, biliousness,
bad dreams, and nervous unrest.
Mf-o-na not only corrects sour, acid,
and gassy stomach, but improves the
entire digestive system so that the
blood, nerves, muscles and skin all
receive increased nourishment causing
clear complexion, bright eyes and that
delightful sensation of feeling fit"
It's certainly needless for you to suf-
fer any after eating distress or stom-
ach misery Ask II. C. Kennedy for
some Mi-o-na tablets, take them as
directed, and If they do not quickly
Danish every sign of indigestion they
will not cost you penny.-Advertise-

the issuance of the bulletin of the re-

The report is lacking in some of the

that stimulates companies to make
efforts for better averages. No eX-

data has been given.

PA. STEEL BESSEMER
RESUMES OPERATIONS
General Improvement in the Steel
Trade Predicted; Big Order
Is Booked Locally

The first local indication of improve
ment in the iron and steel trade which
has taken a turn for the better, was
felt to-day when the Bessemer mill of
the Pennsylvania Steel plant resumed
operations.
This mill was out since September /.
Beginning this morning it will turn
out twelve heats of steel by the du-
pleX system.
That the improvement on the steel
trade will be felt generally within the
next few months, is predicted by the
Iron Age. leading trade journal this
morning.
In part it says: Pig iron buying
has increased as to that there is no
doubt. In finished steel markets the
expectation of better buying just ahead
is stronger for inquiry has grown,
and in some lines the decline in or
ders has stopped. Many manufactur-
ing consumers seem to be waiting for
the reductions in labor cost which 1t is
widely believed will become effective
January /. Whether prices meantime
will discount them is the question
close buyers are trying to answer.
THE export movement is still much
below the average of the first six
months of the year. The French con-
tracts for 1s in. shrapnel rounds
went at low prices, about $4,000 tons
being divided between two Pittsburgh
companies.
The inquiry of the New York Cen
trail for $4,000 tons of rails is likely
to result in winter rollings for one
mill, at least. Otherwise the rail
makers have little to relieve the pros
pect of very lean winter The Penn
sylvania Steel Company has booked a
3,500-ton order and the Ensley mill
has a weeks double-turn operation
ahead. Rails were part of the cargo
of the first steamer of the new Mobile
San Francisco line which sailed from
Mobile last week."
