NEW SOURCE OF PAPER

The paper shortage has stimulated
the inventive genius of the whole
world into a search for new forms
of raw materials. Discoveries along
this line are announced almost daily
because the essential constituent of
paper, the cellulose fiber, is common
to almost the whole vegetable king
dom. The problem is wholly one of
cheapness and practicability of pro-
duction. Among the promising sug-
gestions are the proposal to use spin
ach stalks, put forward by French
scientist, who has proved his success
experimentally, and the proposed
use of the Mexican sacaton grass. A
very promising related development
is the reported perfection of a pro-
cess by which the printers ink can be
removed from old newspapers.

to use for the production of various
crops reminds one of the man who
many years ago applied to Horace
Greedy for advice. About the time
that guano and other artificial fertil-
izers were coming into the market
and demanding the attention of the
farmers, man in Connecticut wrote
to the editor as follows: "Mr. Gree
ley: Would you recommend putting
guano on potatoes" The reply was
rather complicated but interesting.
Mr.. Greeley said: "For men who
drink rum, chew tobacco and have
other vile and nauseating habits, I
suppose that guano is as good as any
thing else to put on their potatoes. I
personally prefer good ham gravy"

Fatal Accident.

A distressing accident occurred at
the Fred Eggert place in Princeton
town Sunday afternoon about
o'clock, when Otto, the IL year old
son Of VIM. Klingbeil, was shot and
died instantly. Two boy companions,
August and Fred Eggert, jr., were
with him at the time, and they say
that the boy had gun, but are unable
to explain just how it was accidently
discharged. The charge lodged in
the left chest, in the region of the
heart.
Mr.. and Mrs. Eggert were visiting
a neighbor at the time, and the boys
Immediately summoned DR.. Cooney by
telephone, and also notified Mr.. King
bell.
DR.. Cooney performed an autopsy
Monday evening and found several
small shots and shot gun wads.
Funeral services were conducted on
Tuesday afternoon from the German
Lutheran church in Princeton town
by Rev. O. Strauch, and interment
was in the church cemetery.
Otto was bright boy and a good
boy, and his unexpected taking away
is indeed sad. Besides the father he is
survived by four brothers and one
sister, viz: Arthur and Ernest of
Princeton, Walter of North Dakota
and Alfred of Deer Park, Wis.,, and
Mrs. Sophia Lueck of Princeton.
