TANK FOR sTEWINe UP POPULAR
PAVING MATERIAL coNsTRUc-
TER BY BEMBERG & SONS
AT LOCAL PLANT.

Thousands of people have stood on
the street corner and seen the paving
crews spread the hot liquid asphalt
but the attention of these people is
centered on the task of ironing the
material into semblance of a pave
ment, and they have no idea of all the
work that must be done before the as
phalt is ready for the street.
Bemberg & Sons are just completing
a tank which will hold 1000 gallons
of liquid asphalt The tank is of
sheet steel, with the bottom rounded
SO that it will fit in brick base for
the purpose. This base is in the ma
ture of a furnace, where a fire will
cook the asphalt until it is ready to
be drawn off into the wagons which
carry it to the street work The as
phalt at this time runs as freely as
thin molasses, but there is no danger,
SO long as it retains its color and odor,
of anyone installing it for the s.long
Sweetnin.'
Bemberg e Sons have enlarged
their business materially this month
by the erection of an additional build
ing where the wire work is being
done. This is equipped with machine
cry which will thread the heavy wire
in and out to make the screens for
bank windows, and office partitions.
Many fancy wire designs are executed
here, but anything that can be made
of wire can be turned out, and the
force of workmen kept busy there
indicates that somewhere people use
a whole lot of wire goods.

wish to make, that there is probably
heavy shortage, and that the sur
plus is being held by the grower as
we'll as the middleman in prospect of
considerable advance in price.
Questionairres circulated by the Gov
eminent indicate that there is a dis
position on the part of the farmer
generally, due to dissatisfaction over
regulation of prices and other condi-
tions, to plant only such food and feed
as he may consider necessary for his
own consumption. There is one plant
er in Pulaski county who will this
year plant every foot of his large plan
tation in cotton, eliminating grain
crops altogether. This is on the theo-
rv that he proposes to make as much
money as possible out of the crop
while the price is SO high. | predict,
however. that if the South persists in
this policy, it will regret it for many
years to come.
These are some of the conditions
which the American Cotton Assocla-
tion is endeavoring to bring home TO
the people of the South, the merchant
and banker as well as the farmer. |
appreciate the fact that it will be DIFF
ficult to induce the farmer to change
his program, but unless he pursues
different course, the results are
likely to be disastrous.
The thing that we must do, II we
are TO maintain our industrial and az
ricultural supremacy, is to plant more
food and feed crops and handle IN d
more business like way the one great
money crop of the South. Our COT

New York, June 26.-Between
nine and ten millions of dollars
have been gathered from outgoing
aliens who were too modest to de-
clare the full amount of their earn
ings for income tax payments and
many thousands more are being

Forty-five agents have been kept
busy at the piers and elsewhere in
the city collecting the millions
from outgoing aliens. A small

aliens.

RACING USHERS IN
LIGHT CAR EPOCH

Tracing is the cruclble that has
brought about the present perfec-
ton of the motor car" declared
Paul Doran today. almost every
advancement of the designers art
has come from the experience
gained through speed and, endur-
ance contests.
THE quick detachable rim, the
use of special steels to obtain hght-
ness and the building of stream
line bodies to decrease wind resist
ance, are examples of some OF the
many advancements which have
come from the lessons learned IN
racing which have benefited every
motorist.
AT this years Indianapolis race,
for instance, the size of the motors
was cut almost in half and yet
these cars proved their ability to
outperform the larger engines OF
other years. The smaller engines
cut the pit stops in half and, as a
result the average miles per hour
wos greater than last year when
| the cars made 100 stops at the PITS.
| This wear only SIS stops We're maze.
"The lesson is plain and 1t is
that mere size can no longer DC
taken as a criterion of motor car
performance. To the motor car
nsers ii means the coming of an
era of lighter cars of greater per
Torrance of more dependability
and of superior economy.
"The indianapolis race only
served to drive home the lesson
already taught by the achievements
~ the Essex. Although the motor
Of the Essex is actually smaller
than those used at Indianapolis, ITS
wonderful performance was shown
on the Cincinnati Speedway Wn .lan
it set a new worlds long distance
endurance mark by averaging more
than 60 miles an hour for so hours
during which time it covered 3,oS'
miles. 49,, M, t,,;e
was a stock car in every parucu.iial
| and had to contend against the
worst possible weather conditions.

BEAR TRACKS.-Continucd.

Sinopsus of previous chapters:
Tom is after some big bear that
have been killing cattle. He

trained eagle and after many ad-
ventures he comes up with
bear as big as a cow, unexpectedly.
The eagle picks out the bears
eye and Tom shoots it dead, and
finds few cattle which he
rounds up and drives back to the
ranch, carrying the bear in the
wagon.

boys ran out and opened the corral

don't purpose to lose it all why the
hide alone is worth a fortion and
the meat should be fine roasting
now so come on you fellows lend
a hand" said Tom.
When they ripped open the belly
of the bear, which was big one,
they found a undigested lot of wool
that looked like a lamb and some
hair which looked human and |
bet that is the child of the rancher
that disappeared said Tom
Horrible. Amt that awful, !"
said the men and they We're all
glad that Tom had killed the bear
1--WE should have had a barbecue
with all this meat, said Tom, and
ask everyone in but maybe they
wouldn't care to have the meat so
gamy as for me I'm English and
so suits me fine" Tom had the
bear skin cured and mountedD but
the dogs dragged most of the meat
from the fence and ate it up but
there was still enough for everyone
to get sick of bear legs Cha. ha)

EDITORIALS.

We notice that two boys who ran
away, aged ten years, on their way
to California for adventure, were
brought back home and were sent
to a reform school. Well, it seems
as though home must be better
than a reform school, but maybe
that's why the boys ran away.
There are worse things than run
ing away. Many a boy of ten
wishes to see the world, and after
he has done it a time or two he
learns that cumming on a dirty
train is a dangerous thing, boys.
