farmers to install such a system at
an average cost of material per far
mer of less than $50. Carson County
is eighty-seven miles long and very
sparsely settled, although the agri-
cultural lands are fenced. Standard
telephone lines appeared to be too
expensive, yet there. was great
need of facilitating communication.
The county agents furnished infor-
nation regarding the cost of install
ing the line, using porcelain nail
knobs for Insulation, which cost
about SIS mile. These knobs work
ed satisfactorily when the barbed
wire is tied to them with short
piece of wire. In order further to re-
duce the cost some famers tied
pieces of rubber cut from automo-
bile inner tubes an inch and a half
square were. wound around the
barbed wire and fastened to, the post
with staples. The county agent re-
ports that this insulation is giving
satisfaction, although, of course, the
rubber will deteriorate in time.
The farmers were able to obtain
secondhand telephones at from $5
$40 each, and so cents bought a
arrester, so that the total
cost to each farmer was nominal. |
Each farmer has his own special
ring, so there is no expense for a
central. 1t is possible with a system
like this to connect various parts
of the farm, or distant barns, with
the house, or the tenant house with
the farm house at very low cost.
While such a system leaves much to
be desired in the way of service, it
meets an emergency and can be
made to answer, pending the coming
of times when conditions will war
rant more expensive and more sat-
isfactory system.-New York Times.

PHILIPPINE ISLANDS
- HAVE MUCH TIMBER

Manila. Sept. 26.-There il
enough timber in THE Philippine is
lands to take care of most of the
lumber industry Of the Far East, &C
cording to Major General Leonard
Wood, who has just traversed the
archipelago from Northern Luzon
to the Visayan islands.
"Few people appreciate the enor.
nous resources in the islands in the
way of lumber, much of it Of the
most valuable kind" he said. "Near-
by sO,0O0,0O0 feet of it was cut in
1920, of which in the neighborhood
Of 100000 was exported.
"In ordinary years there ought to
be an enormous amount available
for export. Now is the time to initi-
ate those wise forestry measures
which would insure the replacement
of the trees cut. These forests are
full of the most valuable woods, and
there is possibility of great develop
ment in the production of rubber,
camphor, etc., also an enormous
amount of other forest and jungle
products. ...
"Lumbermen in the islands ought
to unite so as to have better mar
keting Of their products abroad. In
other words, here is a great indus
try which can be developed on sound
lines an reproduction of the forest
assured" ...
w. Cameron Forbes, former gov
ernor general of the Philippine is

the lumber industry of the islands.
He said:.

SAY THEY CAN CHANGE
A CORPSE TO A STATUE
Two Paris Doctors Give A Demon
stration of a New Embalming
Method.

Paris, Sept. 25.-The discovery Of
a process by which dead body car
be preserved for twenty years is an
nounced by two Paris physicians
Professor Felleyseniczhy and DR.. Ed
mond Bartha. What it does, accord
ing to their statements, is to solidify
the body so that actual flesh and
blood assume the appearance and
hardness of marble.
Before a small party of newspaper
men the first public experiment was
conducted last evening by DR.. Bar
tina, with every appearance of sue
cess. The body of an elderly woman
who had died in a hospital was used.
It was laid on an operating table as
If for dissection, and as death had
taken place ten days ago, putrefac-
4ion had already begun. DR.. Bartha,
before beginning his threatment,
called attention to the marks of de-
cay and said that one of the remark
sble features of his process was that
even though decay had begun, it
could be arrested and the body pre-
served as well as if death had just
taken place. What his method was
the doctor of course refused to dis
close. All he did was to inject with a
syringe into the. femoral artery the
conserving liquid which Professor
Fellyesnichzhy and he say they have
discovered. .,..t..' g..
For a time there was no change in
the appearance of the body, but at
the end of about an hour the flesh
began to take on an aspect as of life,
the muscles filled out and the tissues
and tendons became like those of
living person. In two hours the
change was complete. The skin, too,
had changed its appearance and, al
though almost dead white and waxy,
was almost the same in tint as when
the boy had been alive. The features
wore different expression, as of
repose, owing to the filling out of the
muscles and flesh, and the whole
body presented the appearance of a
sleeping person or a finely chiseled
statue. All trace of sickness or death
had been removed.
Today the body has the same ap-
pearance, and the next step in the
process will be completed in a few
days. The skin will then be coated
with preserving pomade, and when
this has been done the conserving
liquid which has been injected into
the body will, the doctor says, hard
en- 50 that the body itself will be-
come perfectly rigid and as appear
ance it now has Of tranquility and
sleep.
No enbalming process yet invent
ed, either modern or ancient, the
doctors assert, can so well preserve
the natural expession and appear
ance of life, which they say will per-
sist for at least twenty years.

DUBLIN. March 1S - Boycotting
Belfast has become a leading feature
| of the Sim Fein tactics and it is be-
! ing enforced with the full power of
| the republican army. From every
part of ireland, inside as well as out
side of the Belfast parliament. re-
ports are received daily of attacks

traders They have held up trains
conveying Belfast goods and scat

volvers have compelled the station
masters to admit them to the freight
depots. where they have removed
everything coming from Belfast.
Source of Bread Supply
1t is curious fact that Belfast is
the principal source of the bread
supply even for towns on the west
ern seaboard. Several consignments
of Belfast-made bread have been de-
stroyed. 1t is now unsafe for any
trader to have open dealings with
the Ulster capital. for the Sim Fem

which this control is evaded. They

The Sim Fein evidently believes
that Belfast is more likely to be in
fluenced by intimida ton affecting the
pocketbook than by concilation, but
their action only confirms the north
in the conviction that it would be
unsafe in any all-Ireland parliament.
The government is not making any
serious impression on the Sim Fein.

of death sentences on five young men
who attacked a police car near Dub

shows that even the death penalty is
no deterrent. The general feeling in
Dublin is that the next two months

MAN CALLED TO DOOR
AND SHOTTO DEATH
Another Found Mysteriously Kill.
ed on Roadway in Ten-A
neSSee

NASHVILLE. Tenn. March 1s-Tom
<slitchell, forty-fve, well-tosdo farmer,
residing at Cottontown. Sumner county,
was called to his door about 1 O'Clock
this morning and shot to death by a
party OF men in an automobile.
A hundred yards down the Red River
road from the house passers-by about
daylight found the body OF an un!denti-
fed man. aged about forty-five to fifty,
shot to death.
1t is said that shortly after daylight
some neighbors passing along the Red
River road found the body of the un-
identified man lying in the road, and.
going on to the Mitchell home, found
that Mitchell had bese slain also.
According to Mrs. Mitchell, an auto
mobile had stopped at the house and the
occupants had called Mr.. Mitchell He
opened the door. and while he stood
in the doorway was fired on.
Early reports throw no light on the
motive for the killing of Mitchell. No
disorders of any kind have been
threatened in Sumner county so far
as known here. The opinion is ex-
pressed by some that the double kill
ing may have been the work of whis-
ky outlaws.

along the western coast of Mexico. is
dead as a result of wounds received
in a recent battle with federal troops

The dead bandit was associated with
various revolutionary factions for
years. He was first a lieutenant of

headed another uprising. Last August
he raided the towns of Autlan and
Quatian, from which he carried Oft
a number of captives. Among those
taken prisoner by Zamora, were seven
Americans and several British sub
jects. 1t was said that sixteen girls

were released voluntarily, and when
government troops pressed the pur-
suit of the bandit hotly. ne released
the rest after being promised i'm
munity from arrest.
He announced he intended to follow
peaceful pursuits. but, unlike his for
mer chieftain, Villa, he was not con-
tented with a peaceful life. and sew
eral days ago it was reported that he
was again heading rebellion. and
federal troops were sent against him.
The bandit forces were encountereA at

wounds. He managed to escape from
the field, but he died later. News
dispatches received here say the body
was taken to Barranca. state of Aguas
