HOW sEDALIA GOT IT'S NAME
Gen. George r. Smith Gave the Town
Its Pleasing cognomen in Honor
Of His Young Daughter.

The city of Sedalia was both found
ed and named by Gen. George r.
Smith, who was a distinguished citi.
zen of Missouri during the years Of the
Civil al and the periods Immediately
before and after that struggle. He
was a Virginian by birth and a Ken
tuckian by u%pbringing ; as a young man
he came to Missouri and settled ut
Georgetown, which is three miles north
of the present city of Sedalia. He
was prominent both in politics and
business and was instrumental in the
building of the Missouri Pacific rail-
way from St. Louis to Kansas City
during the SOS of the last century.
He could not induce his fellow
fort to have the railway pass through
Georgetown, and, foreseeing that that
would condemn the village to decay,
he bought a large tract Of land beside
the railway tracks and laid out a town
site there, from which. in course of
time has grown the fourishing city of
Sedalia.
When it came to furnishing q name
for the new settlement, General Smith
determined to christen it Sedville, in
honor of his younger daughter Sarah,
whose pet name in the family circle
was "Sed." One of his friends, Josiah
Dent Of st. Louis suggested that
"ville" was a commonplace termina-
ton, and that Sedaiia would be a more
beautiful and unusual name. General
Smith approved Of the suggestion, and
Sedalia came officially into being when
lie and his family, the first inhabitants
of the new town, moved thither in
1S59.-Youth's Companion.

Dog Leather for Shoes.

The streets of Armavir, in the south
Of Russia, are as much the home of
numerous stray dogs as was Constan-
tinople only a few years ago. These
dogs, as in the Turkish capital, play
the part of sanitary scavengers when
the town council forgets its functions.
But the growing need of leather slim
ulated an official Of Armavir to the
suggestion that the hides Of dogs could
be utilized in the making Of shoes for
the poor pupils in the schools. The
plan was eagerly accepted.
More than 800 stray dogs were
caught, and already most Of the skins
have been tanned at a factory in Vol
ovodin. 1t has been estimated that 1t
costs about so cents to tan each skin,
from which five or SIX tops for boots
can be cut.
The leather is being used without
dyeing, so that the shoes are a bright
yellow in color. The Armavir council
has thus provided at least 5000 school
children with cheap footwear.

Hemp Growing a New Industry
in Imperial Valley

Southern Pacific officials predict
that 10, 900 acres in the Imperial
Valley will be planted to hemp
next year, ushering in a brand new
industry for this wonderful region.
K. w. Clapp, general freight agent
at Los Angeles for the Southern
Pacific, has just made a report to
the general Offices at San Francisco
on the latest baby industry of
Southern California. He says:
Hemp is being cultivated on
the Timken ranch, at Brawley,
where 100 acres have been planted.
and on the Cudahy ranch, soute oil
the boundary line, where another
100 acres have been planted.
This is the first years planting
and it is little early yet to deter
mine the production per acre and
the quality of the hemp itself, be-
cause harvesting had just conf
menced, but there is every indica-
ton that the production per acre
will be heavy and that the hemp is.
of Al quality, 1t is said to sur
pass any hemp grown in Kentucky;
it reaches higher stand-approx-
imately eleven feet. while in Ken
tucky the average growth is about
six feet.
A few weeks ago an expert
mental cutting was made and the
fiber sent east, where it was made
into yarn which was pronounced to
be of fine quality.
One thing in favor of the hemp
industry in the Imperial Valley is
that the crop comes in ahead of the
frost, which means that it will not
be discolored.
A decorticatiug machine has
been invented which is said to be a
success; it has also been tried on
both hemp and cotton stalks. If
this machine in practice runs true
to the experiments that have been
conducted it will be a boon to both
the hemp industry and utilizing
the cotton stalks, because the fiber
from both can be separated much
more economically than by hand.
and it would not be surprising if
the hemp planting next year in the
valley amounted to ten thousand
acres"

About the very next thing
that Congress will do, or who
ever has the power, will be
to increase the letter postage
rate from two to three cents.
1t was reduced in 1883 from
three to two cents. This Is
one place where the poor
man is touched the lightest,
as those writing but few let
tiers a year would not be
affected to any great extent
by the Increased rate. The
big corporations that write
of letters a day
would be bit the hardest.
