Kurunegalla district. 1t is placed in
barrels at the mines and hauled by bull
lock cart to Colombo. at the plumbago
yard it is cleaned and sorted into five
different grades, according to size and
quality. Each grade is further divided
into four classes on the basis of car
bon content, color, and quality. Thus

Corn Crop Is Poor.

.'iculture for December, shows the corn
crop for this year was 82,953,94 bush
less than the 1915 crop The area
planted was more than 100000 acres
less than last year, but the great fall
ing off in production was due to the
fact that the yield was only 28.4 bush

bushels to the acre last year. The
total production this year is the lowest
since 1898, when the crop was 1929
446 bushels.
The condition of growing wheat, as
reported by correspondents of the
Board of Agriculture, is four points
lower than last month, due to the lack
of moisture.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Columbus.-Extensive changes in
the laws of the state, which are de-
signed to simplify and modernize the
governmental machinery in important
departments, are to be proposed to the
General Assembly by Auditor of State
A. V. Donahey. These suggestions are
the fruit of four years experience,
and are being worked out and put in
shape by men who have had practical
training in office. They are in har-
mony with the changes that Donahey
has made in his own administration.
Reports of the examiners show
there are more than 100 sections of
the laws which contain conflicting pro-
visions and which are found to be a
handicap in the application of various
provisions One of the first tasks will
be to attempt to harmonic all the
provisions of the laws so that they
may be clear. 10 do this will require
the enactment of 40 odd measures,
which already have been drafted.

ments. Governor-elect Cox is expect.
ed to give his cooperation.
As an instance of the saving OF
money in the state offices, Donahey
cites the plan under which the vari
Gus departments carry auditors. He
asks for a law which will require ap
proval of the Auditor before an extra
auditor may be employed. By this
measure, it is stated, the payrolls will
be ridded of many employees for whose
services there is no practical need
The auditing of the state should be
centralized, as IS the case in business
institutions. he says.

FIRST MAINE CAVALRY.

At the recent reunion of the sixty sur
vivors of the First Maine Cavalry in Ban
gor, Gen. Henry L. Mitchell. who acted
as toastmaster at the banquet spoke of
the kindness shown to him in war time
by Gen. Cilley, one of the three remain
ing brigadier generals of the State. whom
he characterized as "the bravest man
who ever rode horse" a sentiment that
was heartily concurred in by the veter-
ans who testified their appreciation by
giving round of applause.
Gen. Cilley's remarks touched the
hearts of all present. This gallant vet
eran, at 81 years of age. looked calmly
into the future and then turned back to
the stirring scenes of more than half
century ago.
"We come back here with faltering
feet and living on borrowed time" said
Gen. Cilley, "but this condition of age Is
made more happy by such kindness as
has been shown to us by the citizens of
Bangor. l wish to ailude briefly to the
service of the comrade on my left (Gen
Mitchell.) 1t was short but it entitled
him to as much credit as 10 due any who
served the four years. l learned to ap-
preciate him then and noticed something
about him that thought entitled him to
advanced command, but in the same en-
gagement in which went down he did
also, SO injured that he was discharged"
Gen. Cilley then touched briefly on
some of the episodes in the splendid his
tory of the gallant First Maine Cavalry
and recalled the end-the surrender of
Lee, when the regiment lost seven men
on that day that was called the Day of
Peace.
