 FROM MARSHALL

 The average wage in the Mar shall district, he says. is s6 for an eight-hour day, surface work, with board included. And at that, they have been short of men there all summer. At least fifty more men than were there could have been put to work.
 The Stuyahok stampede caught the oldtimer and he says some gold has been produced there. the dis coverers-Cruger and his son and Miller and Hensley-having cleaned up several thousand dollars Other properties in that locality are show ing up well, and those who are working them are confident that pay will be found.

The committee in charge of the Ljgnite excursion and barbecue an lounces that final arrangements for the outing have been completed and that the excursion train, consisting of a passenger coach, three bunk cars and a caboose, will leave the foot of A street promptly at seven o'clock tonight, as previously an- nounced. Advices received from Lignite as late as this afternoon state that the weather is ideal there, not a cloud being in sight, so that those going out on the excursion train may safely count on a plea sant outing.
 Mir. Coutts, who is looking after the train accommodations, says that there will be comfortable hunks on board the cars for all the men. Most of the ladies, it is understood, have expressed a desire to spend the night at the Singleton road house, where there are accommoda- tions for about twenty. Should there be more than that number of ladies, arrangements will be made for them to sleep aboard the train.
 Mir. Couttes suggests that the men take blankets with them, for use on the train. A heavy coat will do, but blankets probably will in- sure more comfortable sleep. The train will reach Lignite consider ably before midnight, and returning, will leave the end of steel late

MINIMIZING TYPHOID

Z 4 . EF . =
The Virginia Board Of Health has
been working assiduosly towards
curtailng the cases of typhoid fe-
YER that much to be- dreaded !rhalaaN
which generally prevails at this
season. An item elsewhere IN tne
Gazette shows that but few cases
prevail in Richmond, and it IS 1ur-
Their shown that in other places IN
the State the disease IS regarded
as sporadic and in no sense pre-,
vailhg as an epidemic.
Only few cases are reported N
Alexandria, while last summer 1t
assumed tho dimensions of an epl-l
denic in this city, so much so that
the government health officers
placed a ban upon US, and soldiers
stationed at Camp Humphreys were
forbidden to eat or drink while on
visits here.
The work of cleaning up the city
was begun at once, and. in q short
time Alexandria was given a clean
bill of health. This work has IN no.
way been relaxed, and the Alexar-
dria Health Department is devoting
it's entire time to making personal!
investigations of every place where
nuisanecs exist and causing ths
same to be eliminated forthwith.
While this department has been
actively at work lateral sewers
have been constructed and many
hcusehollers have connections made
with the same.
There is, however, still much to be
done, and the health department,
acting upon the practical principle
that when a city shall have been
r!aced in a sanitary condition, to
keep it at that point, is making II
obligatory upon Us to observe al
sanitary regulations.
In an effort to keep down the ty-
phoid fever rate, free inoccnlatIon
will be given to residents Of Wash

NEW ALEXANDRIA

While New Alexandria has lain
practically dormant during the past
quarter of a century. the rapid adj
vance Of the old city on the north
baas of Hunting creek is affecting
the new town on the south side. The
overflow of Alexandria is already
being felt in New Alexandria but
five minutes ride to 81 city. and
numbers Of persons employed or
conducting. business here reside II
the embryonic town. Many others
are liable in time to take up their
abcdes in this adjoining place. and
wifi better facilities for going and
coming their number wond be aug
mented rapidly.
Now Alexandria came t, he birth
in 1892 and was synchroncus with
the construction of the elec,ric rail-
way from this city to Mount Yer
non.
Several enterprises were placed in
operation at the time. The railway
bridge across Hunting Greek was a:
that time a highway bridge also,
over which vehicles and pedestrians
passed daily Unfortunately one
mclning an electric train struck a
wagon on the structure, suit for
damages followed, and later the
wagon and footway were removed,
Since which time the bridge is only
used by trains.
The Southern Railway years ago
bu5lt spur track fl'cm South street
which connected with tifat of the
Electric read, but, fer some reason
it was never used.
The location Of the spur track IS
at poirt brown as "Broomelaw,"
one Of the stations of the electric
read and within the limits of Alex
andrfa. Hundreds Of men employed
at the plant Of the Virginia Ship
building Corporation arrive at and
leave this station daily.
Tt has been suggested by those
interested that the TIME may come
when the trains will pass over Hunt
ing Creek upon. bridge starting
at "Broome9aw." the extrme' south

the present structure several squares

Bee KEEPING Is
PROFITABLE INDUSTRY
livery FARMER Is ADVISED TO
KEEP ONE OR MORE HIVES FOR
HOME SUPPLY OF HONEY.
EXPENSE IS NOT GREAT

"Very few people in Louisiana seem
to know that one Of the most profita-
bic investments that can be made in
the agricultural line is In Bookkeeping,
yet this is fact" says L C. Davis,
specialist Ia beekeeping, Extension Di-
vision, Louisiana State University.
More money has been made TO the
square foot from bees this past sea-
son than from any other investment
in the state. The initial expense Of
an apiary covers the whole cost for
the next ten to twenty years, except
the care OF it. After the frst year all
ID profit, rs the bees gather the
honey from wild flowers growing in
the neighborhood, at a distance any
where from one to three miles from
rear home.
There Ia q certain amount Of honey
going to waste in every locality, be-
cause there are no bees to gather 1t.
would advise every farmer to get
one or more hives Of bees and there
by conserve this food for his home
use. It will take the place in almost
| every case where sugar is used, and

Cross who buys your box will
feel that he is amply repaid.
Men and boys of Welsh, don't
buy another cigar, don't so to
another moving picture show I'M
til next Wednesday night. Save
it all so that you can get the box
that you want.
Spread the news of the Box

This is our slogan: Fill a box
If you can't fill one, empty one
that somebody else has filed"

poTATO CURING PLANTS
IN JEFF. DAVIS PARISH
will Encourage Planting of a
Greater Acreage

Mr., H. C. Fondren has received
tho following letter from State
borticuIturiSt NJ. Hull, relative to
the proposed potato curing plants
"a be established in this parish:
He says: We are DESTROYS Of
spcuring certain data concerning
The sweet potato industry in Lou
igiana, and are especially appeal
ing to you for assistance in col
Letting same
With the rapid extension of
modern methods of storing and
mring the sweet potato should
he made one of the States big
qest money crops. The farmers
IN YOUR territory should be en-
Outraged to make larger plant
ines of SWEET potatoes and to erect
storage houses to take care of
their crop.
The type of house recommend
ed by the U. S. department of ag-
ricuiture has proven its efficiency.
Potatoes stored in these houses,
even under the adverse conditions
mast season, are keeping almost
perfectly at the present time and
the owners are so we'll pleased
that a number are planning to in
crease the capacity of their house
this year.
Our office is in a position to
furnish plans and specifications
and bill of material for any size
house. We will also be glad to
render any assistance necessary
to any one wishing to build.
In connection with this letter
Mr.. FOndren says he would like
10 discuss the matter of potato
curing plants for Jennings, Welsh
Lake Arthur and Elton, with the
farmers of those respective COM
munities with a view of eStab-
fishing such houses. There are
hundreds of bushels of perfectly
good potatoes that 60 to waste
from decay and lack of housing
facilities every year. Then too,
in such seasons as we havejuSt
had ii is almost impossible to har-
vest crop of potatoes without
prospects of very large percent
age Of loss.
There are usually enough po-
tatoeS produced in this section,
even from our limited acreage to
last from one season to another
and yet there is hardly a store to
be found with potato stocks after
April LIST. This is a tremendous
loss and could be Obviated by
proper curing and storage. The
