The government small arms factories

Germs at New Haven and lion of 1000
a day; or in all million year.
It takes three months to make a ma
chine gun and four to make field gun
or howitzer.
American munition plants can turn
out 80, O00, 900 rifle cartridges a week.
In fact, they are doing it. The war
department has 100000, 600 cartridges
on hand.
To make smokeless powder takes
from thirty days to five months, ac-
cording to the size of the grains. The
largest grains are an inch and half
by an inch, used in big guns. Drying
the powder is what delays the manu-
facture.
1t takes three months to make a
shrapnel shell. The task is in the
manufacture of the fuse, which re-
quires expert workmanship.
1t takes six months 70 make a tor
pedo, the submarines weapon, and the
cost is So, 500. The projectiles must be
tested with great care.
Submarine mines are easily and
quickly made.
1t takes only two or three weeks to
make an aeroplane. 1t takes longer,
however, to train aviators to run them.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry | could not travel both
And be one traveller, long stood
And looked down one as far as could
To where it bent in the underground
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear.
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black,
Oh, | marked the first for another day
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
doubted if should ever come back
l shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence;
Two roads diverge in a wood, and |,
| took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

OPTIMISTIC ON
COTTON OUTLOOK.
Joseph Newburger of Memphis Dis.
CusseS Present and Future Con.
ditiOnS of Business.

That the cotton crop of the United
States will not go to the dogs this
year is the prediction of Joseph New
burger OF Memphis, Tenn, one of the
country's principal cotton exporters.
Mr.. Newburger reached Dallas yester-
day, accompanied by Mrs. Newburger.
and they are guests at the Adolphus
Hotel. They are en- route to San Fran
cisco.
During the afternoon Mr.. Newburger
was visitor at the Dallas Cotton Ex-
change, and during the afternoon he
and Mrs. Newburger motored to Waxa-
hatchie for the purpose of making a
personal inspection of the great black
land farms Of which Mr.. Newburger
has heard much. Tomorrow they will
go to Fort Worth and thence TO
Paso
Although Mr.. Newburger has been
doing business with Texas cotton men
for thirty-tive years, be has never be-
fore visited the state. He explained
that during former years at this season
ne had found 1t pleasant to visit Euro
pean resorts. This year, ne said, he
prefers staying at home
Mr.. Newburger' father was engaged
in the cotton business for fifty years.
and in addition to exporting they are
operators Of large cotton plantations in
the Mississippi delta country.
Cotton acreage in Mississippi, Mr.
Newburger asserts, this year will show
10 per cent reduction, and fertilizer
30 per cent reduction. He said that
he is of the opinion the entire cotton
producing section of the United States
will show a substantial reduction in the
cotton yield this year
He Is more optimistic. he says, than
some Of his friends with reference to
expectation conditions. He admits that
the foreign situation is delicate and
that more or less trouble is to De an
ticipated. Yet he does not think the
market will 90 10 pieces a. it did last
year. He says that. if the present
price of cotton continues. farmers of
this country will prosper. and he does
not expect any material change in the

noon, soon after her husband reached

Thus it will be seen that Miss Mar
garet Thomas is the official sponsor for
Grenada county at the Panama Exposi-
tion. This is an honor and a distinction
which Miss Thomas will wear worthily
and is one that might be coveted by any
lady. Miss Thomas is the second
daughter Maj. B. F. Thomas and wife
and is a most lovely and attractive
young lady. Her many friends are
felicitating with her over her good for
tune. The contest has been a good
humored one. At the outset the value
of the prize to be awarded was realized
and everything was set in motion that
the friends of the several contestants
could contrive that would insure votes.
1t is understood that Misses Hattie
Moody. Lucille James and Kate Lick
fold all had large vote out they
seemed to know that Miss Thomas
had forged so far ahead that it was not
worth while to have their votes count
ed. 1t is believed by some that had
these contestants come to the final
showdown that their totals would have
swung well around the mark that gave
the winner success

1.-The Fittest Place For Man to Die

How little rocks it where men die
When once the moment past
In which the dim and glazing eye
Has looked on earth its last;
Whether beneath the sculptured urn
The coffined form shall rest,
Or in its nakedness return
Back to the mothers breast.
Death is common friend or foe.
AS different men may hold,
And at its summons each must go,
The timid and the bold;
But when the spirit free and warm
Deserts it, as 1t must,
What matter where the lifeless form
Dissolves again to dust?
'Twere sweet. indeed, to close our eyes
With those we cherish near;
And, waited upward by their sighs.
Soar to some calmer sphere.
But whether on the scaffOld high.
Or in the battles van.
The fittest place where man can die
Is where he dies for man!
