Mortality statistics shoW that the
experience of the companies in the
case of applicants accepted for in
surance who had drunk to excess in
the past, even II reformation had
lasted for as long as ten years, has
been decidedly unfavorable. and that
the experience was also unfayorable
in the case OF men who were steady
free users of alcohol. even IL they had
not drunk to excess. Bearing in mind
the fact that the companies have al
ways been careful In accepting such
cases. IL is evident that even greater
care must be exercised in the future"
Even though there shall not be total
prohibition for years TO come, in the
face of such Investigations as above
II will not be long till almost total
temperance will prevail. 1t should
prevail and IL the passage of prohibi-
tion laws will aid in dethrcning King
Alcohol. there should be no hesitancy
in passing them. The story Of Jack
London is one of great interest, and
when he says that there is not much
chance 10 escape under the present
laws in many places. he does not
greatly exaggerate. Young men
should have all the safeguards thrown
around them in growing to manhood.
and II, as has been demonstrated, the
passage OF prohibition laws is help,
even though they do not entirely
eradicate the evil. they should be
given this protection.

The following formula Is q good
one for destroying fly larvae.
The Department OF Agriculture has
recently issued a Bulletin, No. I18,
entitled Experiments in the Destruc-
ton OF Fly Larvae in Horse Manure %
The bulletin says in part:
by far the most effective, economi-
cal and practical OF the substances
Is borax in the commereie. form in
which 1t Is available throughout the
country.
"Borax increases the water -soiua-
bic nitrogen, ammonia and aifaiinity
of manure. and. apparently, does not
permanently injure the bacterial
flore." M A
The directions in the Bulletin are
as follows: s-s,a n 4
apply 0.s2 pound borax to every
10 cubic feet 6 thus.) of manure im-
mediately on its removal from the
around the outer edges OF the rile OF
with q flonr sitter or any fine sieve.
and sprinkle two or three gallons OF
water over the borax- treated manure.
THE reason for applying the boz
rax to the fresh manure Immediately
after its removal from the stable Is
that the flies lay their eggs On the
fresh manure, and borax, when 1t
comes in contact with the eggs, pre-
vents their matching. As the mag
gotS congregate at the outer edges of
the pile,i most Of the borax Rhuuld
be applied there. The treatment
should be repeated with each addition
OF Fresh manure. l.ssS
"1I addition 60 the application. OF
borax to horse manure. &c may be ap-
piled In the same proportion to other
manures, az well as to refuse and
garbage. Borax, may also be applied
TO floors and crevices .n harms, sta
bles. markets., ETC., as we'll as the
street sweeping. and water should be
| added as In the treatment oe horse

amount OF borax o measure nipy be
used which wili hold the proper
amount. thus avoiding subsequent
weighings"
The above Instructions srould be
Eexplicitedly followed.

THE sOUTH's RESOURCES

One Of the great evangels for the
growth and upbuilding Of the South
Is the Manufacturers Record. This
great newspaper always finds silver
lining to the cloudIf there is one to
be found. In the current issue there
is strong editorial contrasting the
present conditions with those existing
fifty years ago in the South. The
spirit of, the South was then undaunt-
ed. and the people OF this section have
builded greater and better than they
knew.
Under all the burdens and losses,
and in spite Of the drawbacks, the
confidence Of men Ia these States
persisted and waxed greater. It was
grounded In knowledge Of possessions
necessary TO progress and prosperity
and beyond the power OF man to de-
stroy entirely"
The editor has unbounded faith in
the natural resources OF the South.
and he says that the facts OF today
had to be as natural consequence.
The picture drawn OF the period fol-
lowing the war is not overdrawn and
we have but to contemplate II to see
how little cause we have for losing
faith and crying hard times. He
says:
"In April. 1866. the prospect for

cities in ashes, mills and factories and
railroad lines in ruins, the very
ground in some sections reduced to
infertility and the laboring forces de-
moralized. Stout hearts who knew
the natural resources of these States
were prompt to encourage their fell
lows to begin the task nf rehabilita-
ton. But presently they were con-
fronted by conditions far worse than
war. In many respects; that for ten
years and more hampered every
movement for the recovery from the
wreck. The material losses os that
period were added to the share of the
States in the national burdens con-
sequent upon the war, and other
drawback, even more serious. but not
measurable statistically, was the
drain upon energies represented In
the migration OF natives OF these
States to other parts Of the country"

THE HE'LL FUND TRAIN-A
DREAM,

Tom Gray lay down on the bar room
floor
Having drunk so much he could drink
no more.
And fell asleep with troubled brain,
To dream that he rode on the hell
bound train.
The engine with blood was red and
And brilliantly lit by a birthstone
An imp, for fuel. was shoyeling bones.
As the furnace roared with thousand
groans.
The boiler was filed with lager beer,
And the devil himself was the engl-
neer. t,A
The passengers made such motley
crew
Church member. Atheist, GENTLE and
Rich men in broadcloth and beggars
In rags,
Handsome young ladies and withered
yellow and black men, red and white,
Chained together, horrible sight.
Faster and faster the engine flew,
wilder and wilder the country grew
Louder and louder the thunder crash
ed,
Brighter and brighter the lightning
flashed.
Hotter and hotter the air became,
TIL ne clothes were burned from
each QuiverinR frame
And In the distance they heard such a
yell,
"Ha. ha!" cracked the devil, "we're
nearing hell!"
And oh, how the passengers shrieked
with pain,
And begged the devil to stop the train.
But ne capered about. and danced with
glee,
And laughed and joked at their agony.
my faithful friends. you have done
my work, ,-
And the devil can never a pay day
shirk.
You have bullied the weak and robbed
poor,
And the hungry brother have turned
from your door,
You have gathered up gold where the
canker rusts,
And given free want to your hellish
lusts;
You've drank, and rioted and MUIR
dered and lied,
And Knocked at God in your hellborn
pride;
You've paid full fare 80 III carry YOU
through,
For 1t is only right that you get your
due,
For every laborer is worth his hire.
SO III land you safe in my lake of
fire.
Where my fiery imps will torment you
forever
And all in vain you will sigh for
SaviC r"
Then Tom awoke with ar1t awful cry
His clothes soaked wet and his hair
standing high,
And he prayed as he never prayed be-
fore ~
To be saved from hell and the devils
power.
And his crying and praying were not
in vain,
For he meyer more rode on the hell
bound train.

TURN OF THE HUMAN TIDE
In Ten Months More People Have Left
America Than Entered II.

What will be the effect of the European
war on immigration? This Is n question
OF portentous Interest," a question far
more important, In fact, than the effect Of
the war upon trade and commerce, for
the life Of America Is being profoundly in
fiuenced by the allen blood and alien ira
ditions which, in recent years, have come
in increasing volume from the Slavic and
Latin countries of the south Of Europe
rather than from the Anglo-Saxon and
Teutonic countries of the north. Already
in many OF the Industrial cities to the ca st
of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio
rivers. the foreign-born population and
the children of foregn-born amount to
rs per cent. Of the total. while the foreign
born population OF the country as a whole
has risen to over 13,Ooo,OcO or one-eighth
OF the total.
For several years incoming immigrants
have numbered over 1.oooOo persons 4,
year. of which from 10000 TO 100000 re-.
turned to their native lands. Since the
outbreak Of the war. however, immgra
tion has fallen to one-sixth of this number
The tide has turned. In the past ten
months more people have left America
than entered it. Military service at home
and the closing of many of the ports of
Europe have placed an embargo on the
human tide which recent years has come
predominantly from Italy, Austria Hun
gary. Russia and the Balkan states.
In 1873 when immigration reached a to-
tai Of 1,197,s2 northern Europe, including
Great Britain. contributed only 1925 OF
this number, while southern Europe con.

ALL STEEL MILLS
WORK NIGHT AND
DAY TO CAPACITY
Activity of the Iron and Steel
Trade in United States
since July Is without
Precedent.

New York, Oct. $50 great has been
the sudden and general revival In the
Iron and steel trade of the United States.
1t was said by authorities to-day. that
with virtually every blast furnace and
steel mill in the country working night
and day to capacity. the demand for iron.
steel and steel products cannot be
satisfied and 1t is to-day almost i'm
possible to buy, for immediate delivery,
any pig iron, any scrap or any ingots
in sizable quantities at any industrial
plant in the country.
The revival began about the first Of
last July has been coming on rapidly,
with deluge OF orders since the middle
Of August. and may not yet have reached
its high mark. Within three months, the
price of pig iron, long regarded as the
barometer of trade. has increased ap-
proximately 35 per cent and that Of steel
and steel products-except steel rals-has
gone up about fifteen per cent.
AT the present time the demand for
pig iron and for the various lines OF steel
is in excess of the producing capacity Of
the furnaces and mills of the United
States" reads a statement issued to-day
by Judge Ebert II. Gary. chairman OF
the United States Steel corporation. THE
manufacturers are unable to make de-
liveries entirely satisfactory to the pur-
chasers with respect to large majority
Of the different kinds of finished steel.
There Is nothing to indicate that there
will be decrease in the demand for any
Of these products for some time.
"Of course, these very satisfactory
conditions are more or less affected by
the war business, so-called, yet it is un-
doubtedly true that there Is better
feeling throughout the general iron and
steel trade than has been experienced
for some years past"
Experts who have followed the rising
fortunes of iron and steel within the
past IL months asserted to-day that the
volume of business, both domestic and
foreign, at present Is more than double
what 1t was a year ago and that there
are to-day 10000 men employed at iron
and steel plants throughout the United
States who We're not on the payrolls a
year ago. This is about 80 per cent. in
crease.
The fires have been lighted in virtually
every blast furnace In the United
States. In the case of the Steel COR
poration the last remaining idle fur
mace, at Columbus, Ohio, Is now being
put into operation.
To find a parallel for the greater ac-
tivity In the iron and steel trade, 1t was
said to-day. it was necessary to go back
eight years, to the middle Of 1907.
Steel and iron products are rolling out
| OF the mills to-day at the rate of so,
10000 tons year. 1t is conservatively
estimated. and iron is being manufac.
tured at the rate Of 10000 900 tons.

two months since recovering from bull
let wounds inflicted by Erich Muenter.
the mad professor of languages, who
attempted to take his life last July. is

an attack of appendicitis.
Mr. Morgan went under the knife to.

ant specialists afterwards referred to as
successful in every way. The appendix
was removed at noon by Drs. Markoe,
Lyle and Smith and the official bulletin
issued by them shortly thereafter. sad
that Mr. Morgan was resting comfortably.
Continued progress was reported, unoffi-
cially. during the afternoon.
The attack OF appendicitis was mild

way attributed to the assault by Muenter
Apparently the financier has fully recov-
cred from the effects Of the two bullet
wounds he sustained then. His general
health, his doctors said, was so excellent
that his prompt recovery from the opera
ton of to-day was confidentally expected.
