The primary in Nashville last
week demonstrated'cIearly that the
old gang that disgraced Nashville
so long is still a strong power in
the city. Hillary Howse, the for
mer mayor, but ousted for miscon-
duct in Office, received the largest
number of votes for mayor, and
will be in the run-off. He failed
to receive as many votes as his OPP
ponents and it is hard to tell just
how much he will draw from those
who voted against him in the reg
ular primary. 1t is safe to say,
however, that he stands a good
chance to be the next mayor of
Nashville.

SHIPS NEED OF AUSTRALIA
Grain of Little Value Without Trans
portatIon, as Little of II 10 Used
at Home.

"Australia's food production this
year will average normal; II Is neither
unusually heavy nor light. but there
is going to be considerable difficulty
In handling the crops, because there
are no facilities for transportation.
said Fl. w. Stephens, merchant OF
Melbourne, who was visiting the Unit
ed States. "The greatest need Of Aus
tralia today Is transportation. Until
ship tonnage is provided 1t is almost
useless for the farmers to complete
their harvesting, as It requires only a
small percentage OF the crops to sup
ply the domestic needs. Heretofore
great quantities Of grain have been
shipped to England and 1t Is still going
overseas. but In not sufficient quantity,
for England needs wheat now as never
before. But without ships 1t is impos.
eible for us to send our wheat
abroad.
"The wheat crop of Australia was
damaged to some extent by mice. and
until the farmers learned how to com
bat this pest 1t threatened to become
a serious menace. The farmers used
poison, water, gas and other means
and finally got rid Of them"

Lorna Doone" Is a classic to learn
that Blackmore's great novel became
popular Ia this country before 1t was
known In England, where II went beg

"reminiscences Of the Harper house.
1T related that II was not until after

Louise was announced. and then 1t be-

way. Marston said. the English public
apparently associated the title with
the name Of the marquis and SO be-
gan TO read the book. Blackmore was
better known among his neighborx at
Teddington on the Thames as a fruit
man than as novelist. The fact that

explains the wonderful knowledge he
displayed In Exit and Kitty" of the

Siberia IL believed TO be destined
one day to become the richest country
in the world, for 1t has natural
wealth 30 diversified and as yet almost
untouched, that 1t has no rival In
the old world. Before the war ST.
IBERIA was producing from 10000 to
100000 tons Of -four year. AS a
grazing country 1t has no limits, and
1t exports large quantities of leather.
tallow and butter. Its forests are al
most inexhaustible, and 1t supplies
furs to all the world. Its mineral
wealth can only be guessed at, for
the greater part of the country has
never been prospected. But there are
several enormous deposits of oil.

Upon recommendation of Chief
Health Officer Flanagan the admins

With lower temperatures, working
conditions are also better, but the en-
largement of manufacturing capacity
does not In all cases assure augmented
outputs. for the labor problem grows
more difficult with the draft in opera
ton and even where supplies of raw
materials are adequate. the obsta =
cles in transportation not infrequently
impede their movement to points OF
destination. That many of the mills
and factories continue to run actively
on previous orders, and will be thus
engaged for some time to come, Ia
generally known. yet of new contracts
from regular channels there are fewer
on the whole. and purchasing as the
necessity arises stands out as a more
