RETURNS FROM THE OLD DUMPS

That the old dumps on Horse noun
tain, considered worthless during the
days of the low price of silver, may
yet be worked with profit is indicated
by return made recently by the
American Continuous Retort company
of Denver on samples sent them from
the dump Of the North Dakota claim
from which considerable high grade ore
was shipped several years ago.
1t is the claim Of the above conf
pany that by their process all the diff
fsrsnt values Of the ore ma, be saved.
Apparently the real solution for the
Horse Mountain corpokation i. .he Sc
lection and installation of the roper
sort of mill-one which will save Srac-
tically all Of the ore values.
The samples recently sent to the
American company yielded H. s.Mo~-
ing returns: Gold, $500; silver, $40;
vanadium, LAG per cent, which equals
about 29 pounds to the ton, with a
value of $3.50 per pound at present
quotations.

A CHRISTIAN WAR IN CHINA

The Bible has been the cause of
many social upheavals but none more
peculiar in results than the Tai Ping
revolt in China in the middle of the
18th century. A young Chinaman
taking the Government examina-
tions at Canton, was handed some
Christian tracts, together with a few
chapters of the Bible. For ten
years he studied the tracts, and at
time he was desperately ill had Wis
ions that showed him to be destined
to destroy demons and eventually to
rule China. He set out to preach a
garbled version of - Christianity,
gathered followers and was finally
able to take a leading part in the
revolt against the Manchus that was
then going on. Hung Sin Tcuen, the
self-styled Christian general, led his
army against Nankin, captured that
city, and marched to Pekin. But one
of his generals, jealous of the power
of his leader, claimed at this time to
be the Holy Ghost of the Christian
religion, and the consequent division
of command caused the disorganiza-
tion of the force and it's final defeat
by Gordon.

WILL THE
INFLUENZA
RETURN?
Public Health Authorities Predict
lis Recurrence
Guard Against It By Building Up
the Blood
Pepto-Mangan Creates Rich Red
Blood and Increases Strength

Surgeon General Blue, of the
United States Public Health Service
in recent statement from Washing
ton, warns the public that the much
dreaded influenza epidemic will prob
ably return this fall and winter. All
medical authorities agree that the
weak, bloodless, rundown individual
Is more likely to contract this (as
we'll as any other infectious diseasey
than is the strong, robust, red-blood-
ed man or woman. In view of these
facts, 1T is wise to use every effort to
build up the blood and thus increase
the bodily resistance to the invasion
OF the germs of the disease. Guides
Pepto-Mangan is an absolutely de-
pendable red blood builder in all
conditions of lowered vitality not
due to serious disease of the vital
organs. 1t improves the appetite. i'm
parts color to the cheeks, and creates
new hope and ambition in those who
have become pale, weak and listless
physicians recommend Guides Pepto-
Mangan. When you order, be sure
the word Guides is on the package.
Without GUIDES it is not Pepto-
Mangan. Furnished in both liouid
and tablet form. For sale by all
druggists.

FARMERS SURPLUS FUNDS.

The Treasury Department is urg.
ing the transfer to private investors
of the Liberty Bonds still held by
banks, which, as the Federal Re-
serve Board has pointed out, by re-
ducing the inflated credit situation
will be one effective factor for
checking rising prices.
The farmers of the country took
their full share in the war loans
and for the first time became gener-
ally investors in securities.
The problem arises, can they
to their own advantage continue to
invest money in securities, and if SO,
what form shall the Investment
take? A leading rural economist
recently pointed out that the farm
ers could not do better than place
their surplus funds in Liberty Bonds.
From many quarters comes the
warning against the danger in rising
land prices which are in part due to
the investment of the farmers sur
plus in land which he does not in
tend to cultivate, but to rent and sell
again.
The Government is interested in
the holding of Liberty
Bonds, in preventing fraudulent
practices by Liberty Bond manipula-
tors and in continuing the flow of
money into Liberty Bonds and other
securities.

ANOTHER G.. M. RHYME

Sing a song Of Savings Stamps,
A pocket full of fives
Soon grow to an hundred
And how the account thrives!
The king was in his counting house
Counting out his money.
That's the way the old rhyme ran;
Doesn't it seem funny?
A counting house is the last place
CAS- everybody knows)
Where one should keep his money,
AS there it never grows.
And every man nOwaday is king
Except the buns and tramps;
For they're the only people now
Who don't count Savings Stamps
Each man goes to his safety box
Once every little while,
And puts in new Savings Stamp
To swell his growing pile.

improvements in the manner of
breaking, together with the stabliza-
, ton of demand, which NAV he
brought about by introducing now
erful industrial concerns at home
are the three problems which if
solved, would again make the rajsin o.
or hemp in Kentucky a profitable ag-
rlcultural undertaking. With an
average production of over 900
pounds of hemp fiber per acre and
the proper machinery for harvesting
and breaking, hemp should be one
OF the most profitable crops suitable
for culture in the Bluegrass section
OF the State and, Furthermore. should
require no more labor i'm it's handling
than is devoted to the culture of
corn, wheat or other machine
handled products.
On account of the high prices and
the introduction of improved ma
chlnery for handling hemp in other
parts OF the country there has been
constant trend during the last
eight or ten years toward the expan-
sion OF hemp raising in other States.
California, Wisconsin, Indiana and
ohlo now produce collectively more
hemp than is produced in Kentucky
in favorable year and the industry
In Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana has
oeen stabilized by the erection of |
breaking plants for the production of |
long line fiber and tow by machine /
process. while most of Kentuckv,s
nper is still prepared by hand labor.

AND WE SAWED WOOD

Yves Whittle, teamster down in
Lowell, Ark, was so patriotic dur
ing the fall of 1918, before the Hun
was finally vanquished, that he put
a mortgage on his team and wagon
and bought War Savings Stamps in
his desire to do his duty by the Gov
eminent. Some thought Yves was
doing more than his financial
strength warranted. But he just
went down in the woods, cut up fuel
and sold it in the Lowell market
and the mortgage was soon lifted.
Now Yves is buying more stamps,
because he realizes their value and
finds he can save.

Scully Has Withdrawn

The underground political move
ments can be only surmised by what
appears on the surface. The most
notable the past week is that Thomas
j. Scully has withdrawn as a candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
for Governor in order to strengthen
the chance of State Senator Edward
|. Edwards against James R. .Nugent.
1t had been forecast a year ago that
Senator Edwards would be the strong
est man for the Democratic nomina-
ton. Mr.. Nugent, the political boss
in Essex County, was awake to the
fact that Mr.. Edwards would be a
ed that it was his mission to manage
Mr.. Edwards's campaign for the nomi-
nation. So he prepared to do so.
Having managed the campaign when
Woodrow Wilson was elected Governor
he thought he would put his stakes on
another political horse
But Senator Edwards did not ad-
mire the driver and chose another to
manage his campaign nearer home in
Hudson County. Hence Mr.. Nugent,
not being boss of Mr.. Edwards's cam
paign, has decided to have a candidate
Of his own, even tho it be himself, so
he has entered the race against Mr..
Edwards.
CONGRESSMAN .Sc,;lly, of South AM
boy, has been elected five times to
Congress from the Third District
which was formerly Republican. He
has been an earnest advocate and
hacker of Woodrow Wilson. In Con-
gress be- has voted on all measures to
sustain his policies. When MI. MI
gent, who had been u~nfriendly to
President Wilson since he could not be
his boss while Governor, announced
himself for Mr.. Edwards and expected
to be his manager. Mr.. Scully took
up the line of battle to oppose Mr. Ed
wards in order to oppose Mr.. Nugent.
Since Mr.. Nugent has become a can
sdldate against Senator Edwards, Mr..
Scully, in order to defeat Mr.. Nugenty
has thus withdrawn to strengthen Sen
ator Edwards.
Senator Edwards, people believe, is
bf enough to be his own boss, like
| " oodrcw Wilson.
Mr.. Nugent has been a shrewed
manager in Newark in the hey day of
breweries and saloons. With their
passing his power will lessen. Hence
he announced he will oppose and null
lily all laws in favor of prohibition
and the onward march of civic moral
progress.
James Nugent and Frank McDer-
mott were in their hey day of political
thought and doings a generation ago,
but they have not kept step with the
progress of the political world. They
should study the signs of the times.
The Penn's Grove record., 1919-08-01

With these facts so we'll known we
have a right to feel proud of our share
in winning the war-a share that was
really tremendous when the size Of
this community is taken into consider
alton. We have a right to feel proud
of the spirit Of our people who were
always ready to back to the limit
every wartime movement and especl-
ally of our boys who did such wonder
full work as a part of the great army
of Americans who finally brought the
war to a victorious close. Perhaps
when all things are considered it
might not be too much to say that u
little community was really the de-
Gliding factor in the war. Nearly a
million pounds of powder a day were
sent from here. Scores of ocean-golng
ships locked at the Point to take 1t
away. Perhaps it vas the deciding
factor in holding back the Huns in
their assaults and in backing up the
brilliant attacks of the American
armies which forced the enemy to con-
fess he was beaten. What would have
happened without those 758,OOO,OO0
pounds of powder?
