at Altheimer, as the original survey brought the line short distance south of the town.
 Project Feasible.
 My attention to the feasibility of the road was attracted while in this state for the Memphis, Dallas & Gulf railroad" said Mir. Blanchard. T took up the project with Chicago and New York associates. and up to the present am carrying on the project practically alone. When our locating surveys, now about finished, lrs com pleted and the cost of the road de- termined. the matter will be present. ed to my associates for decis.cn.
 No public subscription proposition or anything like that is contemplated. Bankers and financiers would finance the road. through the underwriting plan"
 It Is estimated that for an electrical driven road the cost would range be. tween $20,000 and $30,G00 a mile, n- cluding power houses and terminals For freight line exclusively. the cost would be approximately $1S,000 a mile.
 Planning to Get Business.
 MT. Blanchard pointed out that the American Bauxite company is not in- terested in the new road. any mere than any other prospective shipper may be, although he admitted that his line will make every effort to get business from that company. as it will from any other shipper.
 "It is only good business that we cI 11H~ 1 o.,I Grvh Co all the freight business in our terri tory," he said. "So far as concerns the passenger business, we expect to have the advantage of electric ser vice through those sections most thickly populated. Superior facilities will mean increased travel, and this fact we are bearing in mind.
 ''In the freight department. how ever, we must remember the Mem- phis, Dallas aG Gulf is originating a vast quantity of freight business, some of which we expect to get at Hot Springs. At Benton, we will be able to get more freight haul, from the potteries. At Bauxite, the bauN- ite ore mines mean very large freight business. Little Rock, shipping quan titles of cotton and other goods, Pine Bluff and the territory cast, all ship ping large quantities. will be able to give us business, and I feel most optimistic over conditions, in this re- gard.
 "Then again, l have the utmos. confidence in the constant great growth of all the territory through which the road will pass, and believe in very few years it will be more thickly populated and will be a far more rich and prosperous section, than it is even today"
 Mir Blanchard, during a recent visit to Philadelphia, studied carefully a new marine engine, especially adapt ed for towboat service, and which he believes will be of great value to his or any other company which installs a barge line on the Mississippi river. The revival of river transportation business on that stream he believes is at hand, of necessity, and in his opin- ion, the adoption of moGern-style boats, with labor-saving loading and unloading machinery, is the one es- sential to make river transportation most successful and satisfactory business.

ORPE7'S DEFENSE SUFFERS ANOTHER
 CRUSHING BLOW
Effort to Show That Medi- cine Was Purchased for
 Another Girl Fails.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-The defense of Wm. Orpet, accused of the murder of Marion Lambert near her Lake Forest nome, suffered another big blow to- day.
 Elaborate efforts had been made tc show that the abortive medicine which Orpet bought in Madison, Wis, was not destined for Miss Lambert at all, but for another girl, whose testi- mony might be sufficient to show the innocence of Orpet in the Lambert tragedy.
 Denial of the existence of such a girl was made positively by the prose- cution today, after an exhaustive in- vestigation had been made.
 It was reported today that Crpet himself had given his attorneys the name of the mysterious-and, It is said. mythical-third girl. but this report was not confirmed-and against 1t stands statement made by James J. Wilkerson, chief of counsel for Orpet. In response to the direct question whether Orpet would be put on the stand to testify in his own behalf. Mr, Wilkerson said:
 Probably not"
 That fact is taken to indicate that the defense bases it's greatest hope on weak holes in the prosecution s case, that the best defense is believ- ed to be in the benefit of the doubt" It will be admitted that Crpet wrote letters to Miss Lambert and these letters show his intimacy with her. But beyond that. the defense will probably rest on its cars, defying the state to prove direct connection between Orpet and the girls death.

Lost Skill of the Ancients.

From the earliest periods of which
 we have historical records one of mans greatest problems has been
 to lift heavy loads rapidly and effi- ciently. Some of the greatest monu- ments of antiquity were built under conditions that involved lifting of heavy pieces of building material to great heights, but how it was done we do not know to this day. The manner in which the great stones were raised to their places in the pyramids in Egypt has always been a mystery and probably always will be. It is certain, however, that the build CTS of these wonderful monuments were possessed of mechanical contriv- ances that were lost in the dark ages intervening between their time and ours, or they possessed patience to a more remarkable degree than Is ex- hibited in any race of men at the present time.-Engineering Magazine.

PLAN FOR FEEDING
 MILK TO CHICKENS
Methods Employed in Connecticut Egg-Laying Contest Are
 Briefly Outlined.

So many inquiries have been made regarding the exact method of feed ing milk to hens that 1t seems fit ting to describe briefly the plan em- ployed in the Connecticut egg-laying contest. There are five experimental groups, in each group two pens. In each case the pen having the odd num- Der is fed the regular contest ration, the pens with the even numbers re- ceiving exactly the same rations, with the single exception that thick, sour, leppered or clabbered skim milk is substituted for the meat part of the mash. The milk pens have water just as the others do, and in addi- tion to this, all the thickened milk they care to consume It is found that each ten birds will eat on an average from one to two quarts day.
 Storrs station has not only been trying the use of milk as a ration on it's experimental pens in the laying contest, but has also been using milk for growing chicks for the past three years. The data thus collected, with results of work done at other expert ment stations. point to the fact that milk as a ration for chicks and for laying hens has very definite feed ing value.
