THE AMERICAN
CLEARING COMPANY

Our business in the American
Clearing Company consists in
purchasing tracts of land in the
South at a low figure, clearing
the land of stumps and selling it
in 100 to 500 acre farms, ready
for the plow. 1t is a well known
fact that before the large acre
age of cut-over land in the South
can be profitable it must be clear
ed.
With our patented steam pull
ing machine, which will pull
from 800 to 400 stumps in ten
hours with a crew of only six
men, we can clear land cheaply
and rapidly.
Laws have been passed in the
states of Alabama and Florida
whereby clearing districts may be
formed and bonds issued, collect
ed as taxes to pay for the clear
ing of land. In our 14,0OO acres,
which we now own III Florida,
bonds have been issued for the
clearing of this land at $40 per
acre, which are paid for by taxa
ton on this land, just as road
bonds or any other kind Of bonds
are handled.
The stumps on this southern
land are rich in turpentine, rosin
and pine oil and we have acquired
a process and are preparing to
erect retorts for the extraction
of these products. 1t has been
proven by actual tests that a
cord of these stumps of 1900
ponds will produce IS gallons Of
turpentine, 600 pounds of rosin
and five gallons of pine oil, at a
cost to us not to exceed $40 per
cord.
We have also built lath mills to
cut the small timbers taken off
the land into lath, for which there
is a splendid market at this time
We have a contract with large
firm in Ohio to take 100000 Of
these lath per day, for one yeal
at a good figure. 1t has beer
proven by engineers who have
been over our farm in Florida
that we have enough timber or
this farm to make 100000 latf
per day for three years. The cosr
of getting these lath from the
stumps into the car is $500 pei
thousand. The profits from thi:
operation of clearing should b
exceedingly large, taking int
consideration the receipts from
clearing, by-products OF turpen
tine, rosin and pine oil and tn,
manufacture Of lath.
We regard this investment a
| safe because it is based on lan'
and we expect much large
profits than is stipulated at pc
cents.
We have on this $4,000 acre
, of land 1900 acres of cleare
, land, which is in Bermuda gras
and crops, such as rice, pota
r toes, velvet bean and live stocl

PLAN TREATMENT OF LAMBS
ties to Value Of Docking and
C~astratlns Lambs.

The value Of castration and dock
Ing Of buck lambs destined for mar
ket is attracting attention in many To-
c~alities where the practice has not
been generally followed. In Braxton
county. W. Va, for example, The farm
bureau plans a demonstration of the
value of castration and docking by
sending to market one carload of buck
lambs that have not been thus treated,
and at the same time a carload Of
buck lambs that have been locked
and castrated. The prices will be
compared, Inc a forceful object les
son Is expected. Farmers In Gilmer
county, of the same state. expect to
dock and castrate all their buck lambs
10 the coming year..
Failure to follow this practice gen.
orally is regarded by officials Of the
Bureau of Animal Industry, United
States department of agriculture, as
q weak point in agriculture, and they
recommend the practice to all farm
ers.

LIVE o NOTES

First-class draft horses are very
scarce.
The pig grows upon what 1t eats.
While 1t should not be overfed, 1t
must be supplied with all 1t will eat
up clean for best development and
growth.
Docking gives the lambs a heater
and more uniform appearance. Long
tailed lambs collect dung, which oft
en- causes maggot trouble during hot
weather.
If you have NJ ambition to make a
success as a breeder, to improve the
breed and establish a reputation for
raising a choice lot of extra pigs, 1t
requires you to acquaint yourself with
all of the pest feeding experience to
be had.

Paris, June 14.-Essad Pasha, head
of the Albanian delegation in Paris,
and former provisional president OF
Albania, was assassinated here. Three
shots were fired at him by an Al
bantam student, two of which tool
effect.
Essad Pasha was emerging from the
Hotel Continental in the Rue Castig-
lone, when he was suddenly confront
ed by a young man, who later gave
his name as Rustem Aveni, and said
he was an Albanian student. Without
uttering a word Rustem fired two
shots which struck Essad Pasha in the
chest and another shot which went
wild. Essad died shortly afterward.
The assassin was arrested and de-
ciared the crime was not premedi,
tated. Recognizing Essad Pasha,
whom he held responsible for the suf-
ferings of Albania, he said he felt n
sudden impulse and fired the shots.
Rustem termed Essad "the Albanian
dictator"
