BILL TO FURNISH
NITRATE TO FARMERS.

Washington, April 10.-(Special.)
Surplus nitrate of soda, the basis of
most fertilizers now held by the army
and amounting to between $4,000 and
100000 tons, will be available for the
farmers of the country within ten to
thirty days if the Dent bill, passed by
the house Saturday, receives like con-
sideration in the senate. The need
for the fertilizer, especially through
out tn South, is imperative as private
shipments from Chile have been held
up, first by lack of ships, and when
these were provided, by slide which
closed temporarily the Panama canal,
Representative Dent, Alabama, OBJ
tanned unanimous consent yesterday
for consideration Of his bill, author
izing the war department to sell the
surplus it has accumulated. The bill
was passed, and an effort will be
made to have it called up for early
passage in the Senate Monday.

self, in selecting the name for Yuma
at the time the Paducah, Tennessee &
Alabama railroad was being built
through there, were considering the
Eame of Gooch, in honor of our old
friend Gooch, but there was some OBJ
lection and it was my recollection the
objection was from Mr.. Gooch him
self. Upon Mr.. Fristoe's remarking
that the country around there was
good, ] asked why not name it 'Yu-
ma the Indian for good, and the
name was Immediately adopted

RUN OVER TO JACKSON.

j. W. Page and wife, Roy Page and
W. v. Barry and wife went to Jack
son last Sunday, in Mr.. Pages auto,
with Roy at the wheel, to visit Mr.. G.
L. Dennison, brother of the two la
dies, who has been in somewhat poor
health since his experience with the
flu. In spite of some little motor
troubles, which is always annoying
and some times expensive, the trip
was made all right and the day i'm
mensely enjoyed. Mr.. Dennison was
found very much improved in health
and his good wife had prepared din
ner fit for old Epicurius himself. The
excellence of the roads at that time
was marred only by an occasional
hole or bump. The day and the roads
were so inviting that many cars were
out both in Henderson and Madison
counties.

EIGHTY-SEvEN QUAKES
DURING PAST YEAR.

Though the general public may
not be aware Of the fact, the United
States usually experiences from 100
to 200 earthquakes each year. This
is shown by reports sent to the
weather bureau, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, from the
large number Of stations which it
maintains in various parts of the
country and from its voluntary CO.
operators who send in notices Of
earthquakes. observed in. their res-
pective localities. The number Of
disturbances last year was 81, and
the number reported the previous
year was 1877. A very large proper
ton of these, of course, are so slight
as to be entirely unnoticable by the
public. On the Pacific coast slight
earth tremors are of sufficient fire.
quency to cause no comment what
ever. The majority of quakes re-
ported are from that region.
One surprising fact, however,
shown by the summary Of earth
quake reports for 1919, which has re-
Gently been prepared, is that score
of these disturbances occurred in the
Mississippi Valley. The region COM
prising southern Illinois, southern
Indiana, Western Kentucky andWest-
ern Tennessee experienced twenty
earthquakes, while one was recorded
in northeastern Missouri, two immedi-
ately south of Wichita, Kansas, and
one in Washington, d. C. Many dis
turbances in the total number re-
ported would have wholly escaped at
tention but for the seismographs,
which are so delicate that they usn-
ally will detect a violent shock, no
matter in what part Of the world it
occurs.-Nashville Banner.

HORSELESS CARRIAGE
A BARNUM EXHIBIT.

"Just twenty-four years ago there
were only four automobiles in the
United States" says says Alex Haas
Elliott Garage, local Kissel distrib-
utor.
"Bamum & Bailey's circus at that
time was announcing the exhibit of a
'horseless carriage" among the freak
wonders to be seen under the big
top. In 1897 on of the New York pa
pers printed sensational story de-
scribing an adventurous journalists
first ride in an automobile in quest
of a new sensation. In 1898 a plant
was built to turn out 'motor-car-
riages.' The first four-cylinder car
was brought out in 1900, and the first
New York motor show held the same
year.
"And now, less than a quarter Of
century, two million cars are sehed-
uled for production this year. 1t is
such figures as the foregoing that
give the layman a little idea of the
astounding growth of an industry
that ranks with those industries that
have been leaders since the civil war.
ITO quote certain publication in
answer to the question, What has the
motor car done for us? consider the
following:
ut has stimulated the building of
thousands of miles of permanent
highways, brought commercial pros
perity to hundreds of cities and towns
formerly out of communications with
industrial centers, created wealth by
increasing land values and making
more valuable allied industries, saved
time and money in all sorts of trans
portation, brought into existance
new industry employing one million
people, and thus increased economic
wealth, brought the farm close to the
city and thus made farming more
profitable, and furnished new and
healthy recreation to seven million

riunity study shows that the state
of North Carolina has had at least
ten capitals--Bath, Edenton, Bruins

in the custom prior to 1871 Of trans
