accompanied the officers. LIE Gates offer
ed no resistance. Henry was accompan-
led to bis bungalow by officer Stack

New Powder Order Placed.

The du Pont de Nemours Powder Co.,
which has powder and cartridge plants
extending over an erea OF five square
miles at Haskell, N. j., has just received
al additional large order from the Allies
which, with those already on hand, will
keep the factories running OF full
time for three years.
Since the war began Haskell has doub-
led its population and scores of new homes
have been erected, while many more are
now under construction. Three shifts OF
between 1000 and 1900 keep the plants
running full speed day and night. About

The government is running short of
evenue to meet expenses because of the
decrease in imports. The quickest and
easiest way To get fifty millions is to re-
store the tariff on sugar. Another fifty
millions might be saved by ab~olishng
some of the departments which are en-
plOyed in mailing all over the country
thousands of reports which few need or
care for. All newspaper offices get such
report. At the same time they are de-
prived of reports gathered by census
takers when they are news. The same
are filtered out at considerable expense
from IN to ten years later when they

Meadows Flooded

The heavy rain and wind on the 4th
broke the meadow banks along both Old
mans and Raccoon creeks and flooded
hundreds of acres of meadows. Many
hundred dollars worth of grass, pasture
and corr were ruined. Big losses were
made to several farmers, similar to the
foods in 1876 and 1878.
Because some of the meadows have
little fertility to grow crops of good grass
as formerly, and be of the large expense
of filling the breaches in the banks, some
of the meadows will be let go to the tides.
Being let to the tides they will lie filled
in by the growth of wild oats and water
grasses which will add much TO their fer
tility in from ten to twenty years.
