NEW sEARcHLieHT POWERFUL

A searchlight has been Perfected
which the inventor claims will cast
a beam for rs miles. 1t operates on
the carbon principle, but by use Of
powerful current and a special ar
rangement Of the carbon pencils ire
mendous candle power is secured
There is little doubt that the new
searchlight will do all that is claimed
for It, for the inventor is already in
ternationally famous through his
work in perfecting the gyroscope for
use in compasses and in stabilizing
airplanes. 1t has been suggested
that the new light may be useful for
installation on submarines, as it
would be capable of lighting up the
water for a considerable distance.

5000 For a Farm Plan

1t is dead easy to plan an idea
farm if lotso capital is counted
on, yet by making such plans for
their own farms some Mississippi
farm families will win 5000 in
cash this year.
In farming as in other bust
nesses borrowed money can be
used to increase profits. On the
other hand no money should be
borrowed until clear cut plans
have been made for using it.
To stimulate a wide. safe use
of the credit that will be avail
able by the Federal Farm Loan
Law, Mr.. George R. James, OF
Memphis, is offering through the
Farm Management Extension
Division of the Mississippi A. and
M. College, two hundred dollars
for the best plan for using the
money that the farmer can Dor
row under this new law. The
first prize will be $4,000; the
second, $4,000; third $4,000;
fourth $4,000. These prizes dc
not go to the men alone. Both
the women. and children may
come in for a share.
Complete information will be
given by the Farm Management
Department. Agricultural Col
lege, Mississippi.

WOOD PULP FIFTY YEARS OLD
Paper Was Used Economically Half a
Century Ago When 1t Was
Made From Rags.

1t was just so years ago that the
first wood pulp paper in the
United States was manufactured,
and it would be difficult to estimate
the benefit this has conferred upon
the world, for it was step IN the
dissemination Of knowledge, particu-
larly current news, just as was the
invention of movable types and the
printing press, says the Portland
Oregonian.,
1t will be remembered by many
still living with what care every rag
was saved to be converted into paper
and how the paper, after it had
served its purpose at the printers
was carefully put aside for wrapping
parcels. Those were days Of auto
matically imposed thrift, which were
followed by disregard Of economics
so widespread that already after
only half a century we are confront
ed by prospect Of serious shortage
of supply Of the new raw material.
Just as the supply Of rags in the
sixties would not have sufficed fol
growing needs SO it appears that
soon there will be enough wood pulp
to 60 around. But we have grown SC
accustomed to finding substitutes
when we had to have them that the
world is not alarmed.

INDUSTRIAL OPPORTUNITY.

Here is a suggestion for some live
city, whereby two factories may be
obtained. At the present time the
ukulele craze is sweeping this coun-
try. Any city, by little scouting,
can get a factory for the manufac-
ture of ukuleles. Such an institution
would be forcedTo run day and night
to fill orders. All ukuleles have to
be tested and tuned before leaving
the factory. This would mean uku-
lele music all day and all night. To
combat that, there should be fac
tory for the manufacture Of ear
muffs, to be worn by the long-sufer-
ing people Of the community. The
ukulele would be shipped away and
the ear muffs would be used by the
home eople.-Exchangeo

ALUMINIUM is USED IN SHOES
Increased Service Secured by Making
Parts Most Subject TO Wear Out
of the Metal.

Owing to the increase in the cost
of leather, which has been on the up
ward trend for many years, there has
been demand for some substitute
that will take its place to certain
extent in the manufacture of shoes,
and in some parts of the country
dhere has been received with favor
&hoe partly made Of aluminium, says
1.-THE Toronto Star.
The use Of leather is not dispensed
with entirely, but the sole and coun-
tier, the parts most subject to wear,
are made Of the metal. The hard
usage of shoes comes on the heel and
sole, and in the case of aluminium the
wearer walks on the heel and rock
er, across the sole of the shoe, which
parts are renewable and may be read
lily replaced without sending the
shoes to the shoemaker.
The new shoes are no heavier than
those of leather, and are said to be
much more economical on account OF
the increased service secured.

to be on hand Monday morning
and stay with us i, the dormito-

will be furnished the boys free
and board will be given at actual

cents per day. There will be
one day when all will be invited
to come and bring dinner and
have a picnic on the grounds.
This day has not yet been decid-

will be designed to interest and
benefit all who may come.
Below is appended the program

I see that it is the best that has
ever been offered the boys and
men Of this county. The teach
ing will all be done by the extern

which numbers some very able
men on its roll. Every one If
them has a message that is
worth while and will fully repay
any one for the trouble of at

The Boil worm, since it has SO
little cotton to eat, has taken to
the tomato, and is causing great
destruction to this crop that has
already suffered so much. This
worm bores into the tomato and
oats all the inside out, causing
the fruit to rot and fall off.
There is only one thing that can
be done to combat this pest and
that is to hand pick the worms
and to gather and destroy all in
tested fruit. The same worm

DEER ATTACK FARMERS WIFE
Hungry Animals Drive Woman Into

Them From Eating Tablecioth.

Deer are so numerous IN the
mountain region about Allamuchy
that they are menace to the farm

Crawn, livingin the Old Dark Moon
road, back Of AIlamuchy, pinned her
best tablecloth out on the clothesline
in the yard and in half an hour was
surprised and panied to see three
deer eating it greedily. The table
cloth was ornamented with a design
of green leaves, says Newton N.

aid.
Mrs. Crawn fought the deer off
with stout stid, but after spell
they returned with three other com
panions, and the six animals at
tackled her and she ran into the
