MAKES AIM ALMOST CERTAIN
Invention Said to Guarantee Every
Shot Bullseye, Even In
the Dark.

Charles Pechard, police official Of
Paris, has invented an attachment
that enables one to shoot a revolver
more accurately in the dark than in
broad daylight, the New York Inde-
pendent states.
This attachment consists of metal
lie tube with a lens at one end and a
tiny electric lamp at the other. BY
means of mirrors the light is directed
out through the lens as slender cone,
and is sufficiently strong at distance
of some four rods for all practical pur-
poses. In the middle of the illumina-
ted field there is a small dark spot
which comedies with the line of the
bullets fight. This enables the mex
perienced shooter to hit selected
part of the burglars anatomy with
more certainty than he could display
in ordinary target practice.
The electric current is supplied by a
small dry battery or storage battery.
which the officer can carry in his pock
ct or which the defender of the home
can place under his pillow. The light
tube can be attached to an ordinary
pistol, and it may be used as flash
with peaceful intent or merely as a
show of force.

Necktle Maqnate.

Twenty-Five neckties at $40 each.

which the king of necktie manufac'
turers" will allow to appear in his
books. He has just reached Paris on
his annual tour of the capitals Of the
world, and his taste is regarded by the
most exclusive set Of male society as
the last word in necktie design. The
super-tie merchant, whose cheapest tie
costs $40 and who will not accept an
order for fewer than % ties, is re-
puted to make profit of $4,000 a
year. He is delighted to be in Paris,
which he says is the capital of the
world as regards elegance and dandy

tells this delightful story, and longed

always fond of children, the good

the king

Society In Washington Living
an Al fresc0" Life.

Washington society," what remains
of It in Washington, is living an
al ffescoP life. There are cabinet
hostesses, and many congressional
hostesses still by the sides Of their
distinguished husbands in spite of
the reputation for the boiling point in
temperature which Washington en-
joys. And there are festivities of
course, for, as one hostess puts it.,
"One must dine, and why dine
alonel" So there is scarcely an
evening when a merry party does
not gather on porch, a pictur-
esque lawn, or in a protected arbor
in and around Washington, for the
formal meal Of the day. Secretary
and Mrs. Daniels, who are living in
charming suburban home on q
hill overlooking the city, are among
the busiest of these hosts and
hostesses. Others who are follow.
ing in these lines are Senator and
Mrs. Key Pittman, the Senator
being Of the original Of the young
lawyer in Rex Beach's novel" The
Barrier" who are in a lovely ole
place overlooking the Potomac OF
the Virginia side Of the river. Sen
ator NewIands, who has a lovel,
suburban home and lives in it TIL,
year round, and Secretary and Mrs
Bryan, who are the real leaders il
the garden party and porch part,
affairs, are entertaining in this wa,
almost constantly.

President Wilson Ayerts A Crisis.

Washington, d, c. Aug, TO-
The great war now raging in prac-
tically all Europe threatened fnan-
cial disaster with US until President
Wilson announced through Secre-
tary MacAdoo that the Treasuary
stood ready to furnish five hundred
millions (SSO0. .000.O0 to the
banks Of the country with which to
meet demands, II needed to tide
over any financial emergency. This
announcement had wonderful ef-
feet in maintaining the financial
equilibrium Of the country for the
sudden Stoppage Of our foreign COM
merce amounting to over four billion
annually, is sufficient to throw any
financial system into eonvulsionS,
and yet the wise and mastery
craftsmanship Of Woodrow Wilson
has already steered us through the
danger zone into position Of COM

North and south. See planting
plan. This requires only los trees
for ten acres. This arrangement
gives ample space for the tree to de-
velop in its natural low spreading
form, and admits free circulation of
air and maximum amount Of sun
light, Natures great chemist, "
each Of which is so necessary-to the
pecan at blooming time to develop
and distribute the pollen produced
on the tassel-like catkins. To the
little female flowers at the apex of
the small pecan forms but some dis
tance from the catkins. Nature has
provided no means for the distribu-
ton of this pollen aside from sun
light and air currents. We must
therefore assist nature in so arang-
ing our paintings to give the great
est possible amount Of air circulation
and sunlight in our groves.
The planting plan suggested gives
an east and west distance between
trees OF 90 feet. A tree trained fol
a low spreading head will not bt
over 80 feet high in15 years, witt
a spread of 40 feet, affording tht
greatest possible amount of sunlight
distributed over both the lower an,
upper branches, to develop ans
meute the pollen, and free circula
ton Of air to distribute it.

PECANS FOR HOME AND FARM.

Each year demonstrates more
clearly .he value Of the pecan as a
staple product for the Cotton Belt
Section Of the South and that the
great future is in the moderate
paintings Of the farmer and home
owner, rather than in the large
paintings Of hundred and thousands
Of acres.
Around the farm buildings, the
garden and along roadways, the
pecan finds ideal conditions for
development. Every farmer or
home owner can find room for from
10 to 20 trees in spaces not other
wise utilized, yet has to be kept
cultivated and worked for decency
sake. Twenty trees Of choice
varieties planted in such places
would in ten years produce from
four to six hundred pounds Of nuts
worth from SOC to 7sc per pound,
an annual income Of from $4,000
to $4,000 per year, and an increase
value to your property Of from
sl500.00 to 100000. All for the
cost of 20 trees with no extra cost
or work other than what you should
do to keep your place neat and tidy.
Is there anything you can do to
your farm that will add so much
value and produce such ian income
for like cost'
For orchard or grove planting the
most desirable distance apart and

this plan, will at from IS to 20 years
Of age and forever thereafter pro-
duce more and better nuts on the
los trees per 10 acres than where
30 trees are planted on the same
acreage. Nearly every one, (my.
self included), has recommended 40
feet apart. n trees per acre. and as
evidence Of my belief in what say,
Grfing Brothers have over 400
acres planted 40 feet apart each
way. These trees are now COM
mencing to bear and are proving
that they are too close. We are
now studying the best and most
economical plan Of thinning.
The 80 by IS planting plan ad-
mits Of easy and practical cropping
between the trees, until they attain
bearing age. Any farm crops that
are we'll fertilized and kept free from
grass and succulent weeds, may be
grown around and between the
trees. There is no better crop than
cotton, corn or any vegetable il fol-
lowed by COW peas to provide humus
and nitrogen and prevent succulent
weeds to grow during the latter part
Of the summer. This systsm Of
cropping will improve the orchard
instead of taking from il. Beggar
weed and velvet beans are especially
good leguminous cover crops, the
beans require some work in keeping
them from climbing the trees, but
no great task considering the good
HEY are to the grove. From pres
ent indications the best Of all legumi-
nous crops for an orchard old enough
to discontinue cultivation between
rows is kudsu vines. Experiments
are being made with this cover crop
which will be reported on later.
This distance and method Of
planting also admits Of economical
planting Of one or two acres Of
smaller, lower growing trees between
the 60 #. pecan rows, and between
the trees in the rows II desirable.
For this inter-planting, satsuma
oranges, grapefruit, figs, persim-
mons, peaches, plums, grapes, ETC.,
could be used to advantage. For
commercial purposes we would sug-
gest the planting of satsuma orange,
grape fruit, figs and persimmons.
In planting either Of these, the
farmer could not make mistake.
