This comparative immunity is more

HOME OF UNTOLD WEALTH
Fabulous Fortunes are Found in
the Mountains Of South
America,

Americd.
Fifteen million ounces Of silver Is
one OF South Americas annual con-
tributions to the worlds pockctbook.
This would make more than 100000
silver dollars.
Silver to the amount Of more than
$2,00O,000,000 has been mined in the
last 800 years from Potosi, the famous
peak of silver" in Bolivia.
The hills Of South America are
scanned with gold. 1t is found in every
state.
All this gold and silver could be
studded with precious stones from
Colombia. Seven hundred thousand
carats of them are dug out of its hills
annually Almost all the emeralds
in the world come from there.
Our famous copper mines in Michi-
gan, Montana and Arizona are sur
passed in richness by those on the
west coast of South America.
Enough silver is mined with the
copper of one Peruvian mine to pay
all the expenses of the mining, Of
shipping the ore over the mountains
and up to North American smelters.
1t also pays the cost Of smelling.
The Bethlehem Steel Works in
Pennsylvania could be kept busy for
seventy-fve years with the iron ore
of one Of Chile's provinces, Coquimbo.
More tin is mined in Bolivia than
anywhere else in the world except the
federated Malay states, and only a
few OF the mines have yet been
opened.
Although South America imports
most of its coal, there is enough
tucked away in its mountains to sup
ply the needs of both Americas for
ages to come. But there are no rail-
ways to bring 1t out.
Chile's nitrates fertilize the fields
OF the world and bring it an annual
revenue in export duties of more
than $ls,000000. The value of the
deposits must be reckoned in ten fig.

Plant More Clover

With the old one-crop system
of raising cotton banishing and
the production of more livestock
increasing, calls for a greater
amount of leguminous crops to
be raised in Calhoun county than
ever before, and as clover is con-
sidered one of the most valuable
of this particular kingdom OF
plants, let's strive to increase the
acreage to such an. extent that
every farmer in Old Calhoun will
see and realize the benefits OF
this legume, both as a stock
food and as a land builder.
Most of the farmers under
stand the value of clover as 9
feed, but there are many who dc
not understand how and why il
is beneficial to their lands anc
for this reason | will endeavor tt
give few advantages.
The advantages of these deep.
roofing plants are hardly ap-
preciated by the farmer who has
not made a test of their worth.
They improve the texture of tae
soil. permitting water to be more
freely absorbed; they, in a meas.
ure, admit air, and when they
decay, the organic matter is re.
solved into humus which, acting
with the air and water, combines
with inorganic plant food ele-
ments, making them available.
Plant food thus formed is
brought to the seed-bed or the
upper subsoils by capillary at
traction, and utalized by other
plants.
The legumes are further bene-
fetal in this, that they have the
power through a bacteria which
forms on the roots to take nitro
gen from the air, not only in
sufficient quantities to provide
for their own wants, but to de-
posit a considerable amount in
the stubble and roots, which be-
comes a part of the soil. Ex-
pertinent stations have proved
that for every ton of clover hay
harvested, 1900 pounds of root
and stubble are left upon the
land. OF the total nitrogen pro-

To Automobile Owners of the
City of Okolona:


Numerous complaints are be-
ing made that automobiles are
being driven at a reckless rate
of speed over some of the streets
of the City of Okolona especially
Flemming, Monroe and Church.
The streets of the City are for
the use of the public generally,
and we are determined that they
shall be made safe for the users.
1t is up to you whether or not
they shall be both safe and COM
Portable for automobile drivers.
There is one effective method,
when all others fail, for stopping
speeding.
We hope it will not be necessary
to build a nice fat bumper in the
middle of each block, in order to
stop the reckless driving of q
few at the inconvenience OF
many.
We cannot place a policeman
on every corner of the streets tc
stop those, not only violating
the ordinance as to speeding,
but endangering the lives Of
others, but the owners of auto.
mobiles know who they are, anG
should cooperate with the au'
thorities in upholding the ordi.
nances in reference to the driv.
ing of motor cars.
This is not a threat, but a
warning, and | repeat that tine
streets must be made safe for all
and its up to you to say whether
they shall be both safe and CON-
Portable. -
