 The Wheaton Building & Lumber company has finished putting on the roof of the last one of the eight dOu- ble-tenement houses being erected for the Aanhassett AIanufa curing com pany near their mill on Canal street. The finishing of the interiors will be rushed and they will soon be ready for occupancy. Thiss company manu- factures cotton automobile tire duck and since beginning operations in Putnam about four years ago has been very successful, running it's plant to capacity night and day. Not only this but the plant has twice been added to in a short space of time and is now double it's original size. The pay roll of the company adds materially to the general business of the city. When the company was confronted with the proposition of housing the extra help needed it took the matter into it's own hands. The eight houses ready to be set up were bought from a concern in the middle west and shipped by freight to Putnam. Everything to complete the buildings, including painting, came, including nails, plaster, and even put ty and glass for the windows. In this way the company was enabled to have the buildings ready much sooner than if built in the ordinary manner from the ground up.

SONS DEATH LIKE GRANTS
Former Presidents Smoking Hab
Taken Up by Younger Man.

The real cause of the death of Gen
eral Frederick d. Grant on April 1,
1912, was made public for the first
time the other day. He died of cancer
of the throat superinduced by the ex-
cessive use of tobacco. His father.
General Z. S. Grant. died from the
same cause, and the malignant growth
was attributed to the same agency.
The facts regarding the death of the
younger Grant are contained in the fol
lowing paragraph from an article by
DR.. Robert Able of New York, senior
surgeon to st. Luke's hospital, who
was with him when he died. on "The
Legacy of the Incorporate Use of To-
bacco," which appeared in the Medical
Fecord:
II could not help reminding him Ga
PATIENT that one of our great national
heroes smoked necessarily, as every
one knew, and suffered and died from
the consequences Of disease of his
throat. His distinguished son, also a
heroic figure in our army, adopted the
same habit, smoked equally necessarily
and suffered and died of the same ter
rible consequences. This is n heavy
price to pay for the Incorporate in
dulgence OF such throat irritating
and unnatural habit"

GRAPHITE MINING.

One of the many industries which
have felt the stimulation of war conli-
tions in the United States, it has been
found by the geological survey in frS
stock taking of mineral developments.
is graphite mining. While graphite is
not used itself as an ingredient in war
munitions, it is of great importance III
the manufacture of many munitions
and devices of war, since the melting OF
metals for fine work is carried on al
most exclusively in graphite crucfblex-
The unprecedented demand for this
substance has brought about the opeFE--
ing of mines in new locations in Ala-
bama and in virgin graphite territory
in central Texas. After a study of the
situation the survey found that the oz9
established mines in a number of ths
eastern states increased their outIssf,
nearly 100000 pounds in 1915. The.
opening of the new sources of the mir
eral will bring about an even more
marked increase in the production the
present year, the government geologis1s
predict.
