FRANCES PRESIDENT
WILL BE UP-TO-DATE

Paris, Dec. 2.-(Correspondence of
the Associated Press.)-President
Millerand, despite the earnest con-
trary advice of of Madame Millerand,
is reported to have ordered an air
plane limousince for the purpose of
making official visits to foreign CAPT.
tails and cities in the provinces.
Should the report prove true it will
mean departure in the mode of
travelling of presidents in France and
the permanent sidetracking of the
presidential train. A regular squad
ron will have to be provided for the
presidential suite and the so or so
journalists who accompany the presi-
dent on all his trips from Paris.
Some newspapers call the presi-
dents attention to the fact that fall
from the window of his aerial limou-
sine would have more terrible results
than leaning too far out of the train
window, referring to the accident to
the former President Paul Deschanel.

Watching Life of Plants.

From fuller information. now at
hand in regard to the machine by aid
of which the Indian scientist, Sir j.
G. Bose. has been making visible in
London the ngrowth of plants, shows
that he does much more than make
visible what everybody already knew
that plants increase in size. He also
has revealed that the growth of
plant is by no means steady or con-
tinuous-that it is affected by many of
the influences besides mere nutriment
that affect the growth OF animals. In
short this machine, which is called
crescograph and magnifies movement
a million times, proves that plants are
much more alive than it is customary
to credit them with being, and it is not
an altogether fanciful notion that
when the facts in relation to plant
life become better known, something
of consideration for their feelings"
and something of conjunction about
treating them cruelty may develop.

MOTOR FUEL SUPPLY SHORT
Gasoline Cannot Re Relied On to Fill
Demand-AlcohoI the Coming
Power.

Mineral oils vary very much in their
makeup. Those of Mexico are particu-
larly rich in the heavier ingredients,
and are therefore excellently adapted
for use as fuel. The lighter oils yield
more kerosene and gasoline.
The prospect of gasoline supply Of
fers some reason for anxiety. 1t has
been increased enormously within the
last ten years, but the growth of the
output has been only one-third as
great as the growth of the automobile
industry. There are onw 100000 au-
tomo5iles in the United States; by the
end of the present year there will be
100000.
Nothing is more certain than that
the supply of gasoline will not keep
pace with the increasing demand. We
shall have to look to coal tar as a
source of motor fuel. Already "ben-
zol." by-product of the distillation of
bituminous coal. is Icing used for this
purpose in considerable quantities. An
other fuel available (if carburetors and
cylinders are redeeigned) is alcohol.
which can be obtained in unlimited
quantities from molasses, unmarked
able potatoes, and all sorts of vege.
table wastes.

Pharmacy Popular.

Pharmacy is popular pursuit
among the women OF South America,
according to Y. w. G. A. leader in
that country, because it is a protected
profession and is considered womanly
South American girls have not gone
into public life and into the business
world and the trades as North Ameri-
can girls have and still consider, as
rule. only the so-called protected lines
of work. They teach and sew and a
few have become typists and stenog-
raphers. but most women who take up
any profession train for nursing, medi-
cine or pharmacy. Chemistry is also
popular study.

OUR BAND

Last Monday, it was proven be-
yond doubt, that Extra has
the talent for Number One Band.
Who would have thought that, af-
ter all these months of disorganiza-
ton and no practice, that a band Of
twenty-three pieces, could have
been reorganized and with only
two or three rehearsals, come out
and play like the boys did. We
have heard many praises of their
efforts and we believe the people
now realize and will appreciate a
good band. Several years ago, Ex-
ira boosted of one of the best, if
not the best in the state. Why can't
she repeat? No doubt, Extra, like
many other places, did not appre-
ciate their band until they had
none. Now the boys have demon
strated their ability and LET'S
KEEP 1T COIN. Every depart
ment from the tuba to the drums is
we'll balanced, and with it's strong
reed and harmony section, will soon
be turned into real concert band.
Under the leadership of Rev.
Henry, who has the get-up-and go
in him, they will soon have an or
ganization to be proud of.
A band is a good advertisement
for any city and what is nicer than
a band concert in the park every
week during the summer months?
1t is up to our business men and
citizens to act. A quarter or a half
dollar lis not much. We can all
spare that much every week and
help the boys get music and uni
forms, and encourage them along.
Rev. Henry and the boys will do
their part SO let US do ours. Come
on! Pass the hat.
During the services on Decora.
ton Day, collection was AIKEN up
which resulted in the sum of over
$500 being donated. Fine! Fine

tlficage out of the metal case and
sign it on the back before Notary
Public that he has sold this car to
the purchaser and return said GER
tlhcate to the county treasurer

FEW HORSE-DRAWN VEHICLES
Carriage and Wagon Builders Have
About Given Up That Branch of
of the Business.

The members of a firm formerly
prominent in selling horse-drawn ve-
hicles on the Pacific coast give some
interesting figures showing how the
carriage and wagon builders have lost
business, due to the inroads of the
automobile industry in the tranSporta-
ton field.
1t seems that there were $4,000 bug
gies sold in Los Angeles county alone
in 1896. and $500 wagons. Two years
later the first motorcar appeared and
business thereafter declined steadily.
1t is doubtful if 100 buggies a year
are sold now in California. Statesmen
working in rural distaricts used to sell
an average of two buggies day and
more sets of harness. One prominent
wagon builder sold $S.O0O.OOO worth
of horse-drawn vehicles in 1885, In
1905 they stopped manufacturing them
and concentrated their production ia
cilities on motorcars, which they had
gradually developed as their wagon
trade decreased.
Not all firms We're so far-sighted or
fortunate, however, and many fac
tories that formerly manufactured
thousands of horse-drawn vehicles are
but memory. Most wagon builders
of progressive mind installed motor
car departments and are now reaping
a harvest as manufacturers of special
truck and van bodies to be fitted to
for which their mechanical equipment,
working forces and experience ore par
ticularly well adapted.
