E S INDIAN COTTON.

Messrs. Wolstenholme and Ho)I and, of Liv-

Der l, with reference to the sales Of West
Indian Sea Island cotton
Since our last report about 100 bales Of
West Indian Sea Island cotton have been
sold, which include Old Crop Montserrat at
$3.50, a few St. KITS 174d. to pod, and
the remainder stains 100. to 1850.
The market is steady, but there is very
little stock Offering.
The report of Messrs. Henry w. Frost &
Co., on Sea Island Cotton IN the Sou bern
States, for the week ending November 20,
is as follows
There was a good demand throughout the
week with sales of 412 bales taking all Of
the offerings Of odd bags of Extra Fine, Of
which there will be only a limited suppl, in
the crop, and Of Foly Fine off in prepara-
ton. Thore was also some demand for Full
" Fine and better than, sufficient to keep
tue market steady ut our quotations. For
Fine, of which there are good offerings,
there has been little or no demand but ow-

made the occasion for an elaborate celebrt-
ton by the citizens Of that city, for the
Harvesting of the Tennessee means that the
region surrounding Chattanooga wall become
one of the largest manufacturing centers IL
the South. The new plant has a capacl'Y
of $4,000 horsepower, which with plants
already in operation gives the city an avail
able 100000 horsepower, according TO news
paper reports.
The North shares the South's satisfaction
at the completion of this great engineering
project. the more 50 as Il was largely North
ern capital that made this completion posi-
bic. Ia 1904 Congress authorized the city
of Chattanooga to begin the task OF brldiln4
the Tennessee, but provided that If It so de-
sired the municipality might turn the work
over to private enterprise. A large part OF
the 100000 600 that was expended III the
nine-year undertaking came from the pocket
of the late Anthony n. Brady, OF New YORK
CITY. and IT was therefore fitting that his two
little granddaughters should have thrown
the switch that set the big plant IN motion.
An Incl lental result of the conclusion OF
this enterprise was to render the Tennessee
navigable after having been closed to ship
ping for two years. The dam, which IS
1900 feet il length and Of an average height
of 81 feet, holds mp a lake 30 miles long and
let's by o larger volume OF water than passes
over auy other dam on a nayigabIe river IN
the United States. The power-house ana
lock are on this same titanic scale and are
said to be the last word in engineering and
building skill. The lock, which is 80 feet
long, 60 feet wide, with walls So feet in
height, is said to be the heaviest lift lock III
the world, with one exception. The gates
are of steel and are operated by electricity,
Those who directed this triumph of man
over natural forces met ex@sperating Difficult
ties at first. The supposedly solid rock on
which the dam was to stand was found to
be full of assures through which it was esti-
mated that 2O,00O,000 gallons Of water es-
capped daily. After much effort thesr CUPS

A DEEP BORING IN DENMARK.

This boring, executed under the direction
of Prof. n. V. Ussing, was continued inter
m~ittently for thirteen years, and reached a
depth of 1924 feet. Prof. Ussing having
died in 1911, Prof. Ravn undertook the pre-
p~aration of the report, with the assistance of
Profs. Bonnesen and Boggild. The tempe
nature in the boring, except in the upper sur
face layer, about 800 feet down, was found
to increase regularly at the rate of 10 F.. to
"a feet 90 c.. to 46.1 NO.. This length Of
"a feet is unusually large, the average inter-
val In other borings being 81 feet. The
temperature is given to q high degree Of
accuracy by Fischer Petersen's formula,
t=8.29+2.154 dI10O, d being the depth in
meters, and the temperature expressed in
the Centigrade scale. The rock series con-
sists of quaternary deposits dow to IS feet;
Danian beds of very hinty Saltholm limestone
containing remains of Bryozoa, to 100 feet;
chalk with fints down to $50 feet; white
limestone without fints TO about 1760 feet;
and, lastly, slaty mari with layers of white
or grey limestone to the bottom of the bor-
ing. The chalk aud the mari belong to The
Senonian series of Cretaceous rocks, as is
shown by the fossils they contain. The
mari, hitherto unknown, contains much ter
rigenous material Qoam and quartz SANDY,
especially i'll its deeper layers, and it is
fairly certain that these were laid down
in a sea Of no very great depth aud
comparatively near to o coast. The bot
tom of this sea sank constantly until the
mari had accumulated to a depth of 1000
feet; then it rose, only to sink again, and
this subsistence continued until near the end
of the Cretaceous period. The boring has
to some extent disappointed expectations ow-
ing to the unusual depth of the formations,
aud partly owing to the difficulties connected
with the Photographic structure. 1t is the
deepest boring made in Denmark, the great
est depth attained previously being only 1910
feet. 1t is to be kept open in case any one
should wish to continue the work at some
future time, and meanwhile it is available
for various experiments and Investigations.

 READ STATISTICS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. s. The number of people of European birth and percentage who live in the United States is strikingly brought home in a statement prepared by the National Geographical society, which is keeping it's membership of nearly 350,000 informed concerning the ge- ographical phases of the war in Eur ope. The statement is as. follows:
 "One person out of every seven in the United States was born outside of our borders. We have today 13,- 1 50OO00 people of foreign birth with us, and nearly all of them are from Europe. They constitute a population approximately equal to the combined populations of Belgium and Holland, or of Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Switzerland.
 We have in this country one-sixth as many Canadians as there are in Canada, half million more Germans IlItAn ClICIS dlS III HI, OhOuSh Irish to populate four cities like Dub lin, enough Italians to people three Romes. We have almost as many Russians as there are in Petrograd, and twice as many Austro-Hungarians as there are in Budapest.
 ''In addition to our foreign born population we have nearly 19,000,000 children of immigrants in the United States Counting these, we have as many Germans in the United States as there are in Bavaria and Alsace Lorraine together; more Russians than there are in the province of Bess arabia; more Iirsh than in Ire land; and more than half as many Italians as Sicily. We could populate a city like Chicago with our English-born and their children, dup licate the city of Vienna with our Austrian-born and their children, and more than duplicate all the cities of Sweden having a population of more than 10000, with our Swedish born and their children.

Useful New Invention
Enables Anyone to Play Piano or Organ With
 out Lessons

A Detroit musician has invented a wonderful new system which enables any person or little child to learn to play the piano or organ in one even- ing. Even though you know abso- lutely nothing about music or have never touched a piano or organ, you can now learn to play in an hour or two. People who do not know one note from another are able to- play their favorite music, with this method without any assistance whatever from anyone.
 This new system is called the Numeral Method. We have secured the sole agency from the inventor, and, as we are desirous of at once making it known in every locality, we are making the following special free trial and half-price offer to everyone.
 You are not asked to send any money until you have tried and are satisfied with the new method. We are willing to send 1t to you on free trial, and you will not have to pay enc cent unless you desire to keep 1t. There are no express charges to be paid, as everything will be sent by mail. Simply write us letter or postcard saying: Please send me the Nuneral Method on free trial" If you are satisfied after trying 1t, the Method and fifty different pieces of sheet music will cost you only S. although the regular price of these is $10. You should not delay writing, as we shall not continue this special half-price offer indefinitely. Later on, the Method and fifty pieces of music will be sold at the regular price.

 PROHIBITION BENEFITS
POSSIBILITIES OF ARIZONA ARE LIMITLESS, DECLARES THIS
 VISITOR AT TUCSON

| TUCSON, Dec. S.-Dr. Henry Allen Tupper, who writes the following let ter to President L. H. Manning oi the chamber of commerce, is special envoy of the American Peace Forum of which William H. Taft is president He has had an opportunity to see just what the city and it's citizens are doing.
 The letters follows:
 November IT, 1914. General L. H. Manning,
 President Chamber of Commerce, Tucson, Arizona. My Dear MT. Manning:
 Although I am hurrying through Tucson to meet an engagement fur ther east, before returning to Mexico City, I am unwilling to leave your city without expressing to you my qualification and congratulations on the evidences of the progressive cham Der of commerce, under the able lead ership of it's president
 During the last two years I have repeatedly visited Tucson and I have been tempted at times, to think that the citizens of Pima county and the Santa Cruz valley did not fully ap- preciate the natural blessings and ad- vantages that have been laid at their doo.s but now there is, apparently an awakening to be followed, I believe by termination no longer to keep the world in ignorance of the richness and healthiness of this wonderland.
 This evening I was shown the ad- vance sheets of the special edition of the Tucson Citizen and I was greatly interested in your attractive pictures of your splendid university, the ornate agricultural building and the farm lands, which are to be open ed for colonization purposes; but nothing impressed me more deeply than the success of c. R. Biederman, of the Huachuca mountains, n his work of grating the English walnut on the wild walnut of this country The possibilities of this locality are limitless; and it only awaits the in telligent energy of man to convert it into veritable paradise of beatty anc fruitfulness.
 You will allow me also to say that in my opinion, the results Of your last election on the prohibition question will result beneficially to yonr com munity. Large amounts of money, wise spent, will be turned, I hope into new and constructive channels and a better and brighter day will dawn on Tucson.
 Yours, very sincerely,

 ONE HUNDRED YEARS
THIS IS THE NAME OF A NEW BOOK BY EUGENE CHRIS
 THAN, F. s. D.

Eugene Christian. F. s. D., the worlds greatest Food Scientist, has just published a new book called How to Live 100 Years"
 This book tells you what to eat according to your age, your work and the time of the year. It teaches you ] how to select, how to combine ana so as to establish perfect digestion and assimilation of food and perfect elimination of waste. In other words, t teaches you how to cure all stomach and intestinal disorders by removing their causes, which is wrong eating.
 If you have indigestion, gas, fermen- tation, sour stomach or any such dis orders after a meal, this book tells you how to put the remedy on your table at the next meal.
 bow to proportion your food at meals except man live about eight times as long as it takes them to get theil growth. If man should do this he would live nearly 200 years; but civi lized man dies at the average age ol 39. He begins to lose his teeth, his eyes and his hair, and drops into his grave only few years after he is grown.
 Dr. Christian shows that 22 per cen of all the human beings born into the world die before they are one year old Twenty-Five per cent more die befort their fifth birthday, and more thal half of the human race die before the! are twenty-five.
 All other animals on the globe live eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. Man breathes the same air, drinks the same water, lives under the same sunshine, but differs from his brother animals only in his eating, therefore Dr. Christian shows conclusively that this appalling u1SCI0pauCy muSL Do OH dCCOuuI O his eating habits and he has proved that his theory is true by curing over 23,000 people within the past ten years by teaching them what to eat and how to eat How to Live 100 Years gives the secret of his methods.
 This book does not disarrange O. upset the family table. It teaches the housewife what foods the meal should be composed of, so as to make them chemically harmonious and perfectly digestible and healthy.
 This book is beautifully bound in velum, and gold lettered. Send one dollar to pr, Eugene Christian, 213 West 18th Street, New York City, and you will receive this life-saving book by return mail, and if it is not worth it's weight in gold your money will be promptly refunded to you.
