FIRST AUTOMOBILE OR OR'LANDCARRIAGE"
Story of Reception Given Effort in 17S4, as Related by Joseph Scott of Philadelphia in 1905.

1t has been customary with the most enlightened people in writing geography, in their descriptions of towns, cities and countries, to take notice of men of genius who have con- tributed to the improvements of use ful knowledge or the refinements of the arts. On this occasion 1t affords the author additional pleasure to mem tion, under this article, the name of MIR. OLIVER EVANS, who as in va rious instances discovered inventive genius in mechanics that few men have equalled, either in ancient or modern times. He had in 1784, when he was building his flour mill con- ceived principles by the application of which the power of the steam en- zine could be increased to tenfold de- gree so as to render them applicable to every purpose for which the power may be wanted, to turn mills, to pump water, to propel boats (bat- teau) against currents, and CAR RACES ON TURNPIKE ROADS. He petitioned the legislature of the state of Pennsylvania in 17S6 for an exclusive right of propelling LAND CARRIAGES in that state by power of steam but the committee to whom the petition was referred, not con- ceiving that there could be such prin- ciples in nature, CONSIDERED HIM TO BE DERANGED, but reported favorably respecting his improve ments on mills which they understood better.
 "IIe is now building machine called the ORUKTER AMPHIBOLIS or Amphibious Digger, for the pur- pose of digging either by land or water and deepening the docks of the city of Philadelphia. It consists of a steam engine on board fiat bottomed batteau (boat) to work a chain of hooks to break ground with buckets to raise it above the water and deposit it on another batteau ! (boat) to be carried off. ORUKTER AMPHIBOLIS is built mile from the water and altho very heavy, he means to move it to the water by power of it's own engine. Its first state will, then. be LAND CAR. RACE MOVED BY STEAM"

2l COUNTIES SHIP HOGS.
Co-0perative Movement Meets With
 Much Favor in Arkansas.

Much Favor in Arkansas. Special to The Star.
 Fayetteville, April 16.--So popular has the cooperative shipping of hogs become in Arkansas that in less than five months time, 48 cars from q counties in the state have been put on the market thru this method. The estimated average value of each car is $1,700, or a total of S81, 500 for the 48 cars. The market price of hogs ranges from 10 cents a pound to top market prices, while the cost of mar keting is about one cent pound, and in some cases even less, states J. H. Tull, of the office of markets of the agricultural extension division, Uni versity of Arkansas.
 Seven cooperative cars were shipt from the state last week, three cars going from counties which had never before tried this plan. One car went from Nevada county, which has no county agent. To date Pulaski coun- ty leads with eight cars to it's credit, Faulkner county second with seven. Drew county third with six, Independ- ence county fourth with four and Hcmpstead county fifth with three cars.

The king was in the counting house,
 counting up his cash,
 The queen was in the garden, clearing
 out the trash.
 The princess-ahl the princess-she
 was sowing garden seeds; Home came the king, then, to help
 them pull up weeds.
 Which has nothing directly to do with good gardening, but it does sug- gest a pretty picture, with a home garden as the background. And it may be typical of the many pretty pictures that grow out of gardening. There are dusks and dawns, with their shy light and high lights-for gar dening does take one forth into the freshness and beauty of the dawn more frequently than would otherwise happen. There are pictures of sky and cloud that would otherwise be missed--for gardening, tho it may be of the earth, earthly, takes the thoughts and the eyes to the heavens. But those and others like them are pictures painted for an hour or two.
 There are others of PICTURES more permanent GROWN sort transforma- IN GARDENS tions that endure.
 Roses are painted into the cheeks of the queens and the princess. Some tan may take the place of the pallor of old. Together, they make the glow of good health that lasts not only while the garden does, but on into the winter evenings around the fire, and on into other years. Indeed, if you look into your garden pictures past what the artists call "the middle distance" you may see good health and hapiness and prosperity painted there for all the rest of the lifetime of those who do the gardening.

 A " msny persons on

 a button with a
 big "v'' pinned on \SeYINNW the left sleeve. It
 will excite your curiosity, perhaps your criticism, but ere long you will be wearing one too if you are the sort of man we think you are.
 The 'ev'' stands for the chevron of service; it also stands for Victory, and it stands for the V (Fffth) and last loan needed to pay for the greatest victory ever won by force of arms. It iS badge of service-service ren- dered by the civilian. When you see a man wearing this badge you will know the bearer has done his duty to his country, just as you know tho doughboy who gave his service to his country did his.
 The soldier wears his service stripes on the left sleeve. The emblem is the chcvron. the same shape as the "" of the Victory Loan Honor Button. The thought in each instance is the same soldier or civilian has done that which his country demanded, and the service is shown by the emblem, always ap- bearing on the left sleeve.
 Each supplements the other. The soldier could not have done his duty had not the civilian done his in pro viding the sinews of war-money. Now that the soldiers duty is done, he is entitled to wear his badge or honor As soon as each patriotic civil ian has done his duty by subscribing to the Victory Liberty Loan he will be entitled to wear on his sleeve the "" button badge of honor.
 This round button is not large. With white characters on blue background. 1t win be worn only by those who have actually bought of the Victory Liberty Loan, and have invested their money with Uncle Sam, who never fails to meet obligations, financial or moral.
