Unpleasant Swimming Companion.

A girl had terrifying experience
in the Zwartkops river, South Africa,
recently. She had been swimming
with her father, but stayed out longer
than he did. From the bank he heard
a joking remark, and the next moment
she cried out in obvious terror and
pain. The father was within reach,
and as his daughter flung an arm up
wards he grasped 1t, and dragged her
from the water. 1t appears that when
she was within a couple of feet Of the
jetty the girl became conscious of the
presence In the water of something
large, which appeared to he swimming
towards her. Thinking 1t was her ia

START COLONIZING
At ELIZABETH, la.
EIGHTY-ACRE BLOCKS WILL BE
SOLD ON LONGTIME
PAYMENTS.
COMPANY TO BUY ALL CROPS
viii Not Attempt To Put Raw Prod.
ucts On Market-Company Will
Help Finance Improvements
Made On Land.

New Orleans. 49, Ambitious plans
for colonizing cutoyer long leaf pine
land at Elizabeth, La, are being put
into operation by the Industrial Lum-
Der Company Of that town.
The company has holdings of more
than one hundred thousand acres of
land, with three sawmills, located at
Elizabeth and at Oakdale. This dis
triCts is in the middle.Western part
of the state OF Louisiana, in the heart
OF the long leaf pine section
The plan Of operation which the
company has prepared is as follows:
The land will be sold in blocks Of 80
acres on long time payments. This
land will be clEared of trees and
stumVi, leaving only enough wood
land on each tract for pasturage.
Roads will be built, each tract to face
q good highway. The company will
help to finance the improvements. Elk
pert agricultural advice will be at the
service of settlers, in planning Of
crops and in caring for them.
A feature of the plan which has not
accompanied other schemes of cOloni-
cation is that the company will buy
all the crops and do the marketing it
self. It will not attempt to put the
raw products on the market, but has
built a potato drying plant which is
already In operation, and promises
that Gaming factories and such other
industries as are needed will be built
to care for future crops,
A recent government report, which
representatives of the lumber COM
pany quote, said that the section
around Elizabeth was one of the best
in Louisiana or Mississippi.
Officials say that the, Industrial
Lumber Company is firm in annOunc-
ing that all possible aid will be given
its colonists, the aim throughout be-
ing to establish a permanent citizen
ship, and to make the fertile section
the producing territory it should be.
The company is bringing its coloni-
cation scheme before northern people
who might become interested and is
aruging that the mild climate of the
south, plentiful rainfall and nearly all
year-round growing season should
prove an irresistible appeal to the
small land owner and tenant farmer
OF the North.

Birds and Trans.

Curiously enough, many BIRDS. in
stead OF fearing traps, develop fond.
ness for them, probably because they
hnd them a source of ample feed
which can be secured without danger
to themselves. While this trait occa-
Slonally is something Of a nuisance
to the trapper, it often is Of great as
sistance. 1t is believed that birds,
having learned to recognize traps, will
De apt to go to them for feed in the
course of their mlgratlons, and so,
when caught, will furnish material for
Ornithologists' reports.
