York is a stubborn man. He took
his Bible with him when he was

Every night he had York marched
over 70 his tent under a strong and
desperate guard armed to the teeth.
The first time York came he thought
the captain was going to pull a gun

News Print Paper Made of
Southern Pine. J.

Birmingham, Ala, June. 19.-The
Birmingham Age-Herald tomorrow
morning will be published on paper
manufactured from southern spruce
pine, which grows along the banks of
the Warrior river and in the hilIy
sections of north Alabama, covering
many thousands of acres.
The paper was manufactured from
wood shipped to northern mills, and
is declared by experts to be equal in
every respect to the news print made
from Canadian spruce.
The Alabama pine, which is unfit
for lumber contains an unusually fine
fibre, has thin bark, virtually no
heart and contains only trace of
rosin. 1t grows for miles along the
Warrior River, averaging from four
to twenty cords to the acre. 1t re-
ouires one ton of wood to make ton
of paper pulp.
Additional tests are being made
and a movement has been started to
establish large paper mill on the
Warrior River for the manufacture
of news print in large quantities.

Death of Mrs. Emily Manget.

Some time in the early hours of
Monday morning at/her home in
Trenton Mrs. Emily Manget entered
peacefully into her eternal rest. She
retired Sunday night as we'll as usual,
having sat upon the porch until elev-
EN- o'clock with the other members OF
the family and with friends who
made social call. About seven
o'clock Monday morning she was
found dead in her bed. Mrs. Manget
was in her 10Th year at the time OF
her death and had become enfeebledd
by the weight of years upon her, but
at the time of her going away not to
return she was enjoying her accus-
toned health.
Nearly four score years God hao
spared this good woman whose beau
tiful Christian life was benediction
to all who came under her influence.
For nearly fifty years she had been
q member of the Edgefeld Baptist
church. She was born and reared IN
Edgefeld, being before her mar
riage. Miss Emily Bryan. She was
born and spent her girlhood days in
the old Bryan home which stood
where Capt. N. G. Evans residence
now stands.
Although she had resided in Tren-
ton for many years, yet she loved
Edgefeld, being unwilling to sever
her relations with the old Edgefeld
Baptist church, which she first loved.
DR.. R. G. Lee, her former pastor, was
requested by telegraph to come from
Chester to conduct her funeral and
he came. Practically everybody in
Trenton and considerable number
of Edegefeld people attended her fu-
neral. The floral tributes were nu-
merous and very beautiful, the white
which predominated among the flow
ers seemed to reflect or be symbolic
of her beautiful life of conservation
and loyalty.
The interment took place in the
Edgefeld cemetery beside the grave
of her husband who died March 80,
1892. Mrs. Manget leaves one son,
S. H. Manget.

Live Meat Supply in This Coun.
try Far Below Previous
Years.

Chicago, June 19.-The number of
cattle for each 100 persons in the
United States is today one-third less
than in 1909, the sheep supply is re-
duced nearly two-thirds, while the
number of hogs is fully Al per cent,
less now than then, according to fig.
ures compiled from the federal cen.
sus reports by Herbert .Myrick, farm
expert for farm publication.
Declaring that this alarming
shortage" in livestock is such as to
furnish meat supply, only about
half as great for each person in the
country as formerly. Mr.. Myrick said
"The decline during recent months
in prices to producers is so utterly un-
justifable as to constitute the grav-
est economic crime ever perpetrated
upon the farmers of America"
Other figures were given to show
that 20 per cent. fewer pounds of
meat were exported during the pres
ent fiscal year than during the pre-
vious year while imports totalled
ITS, 100000 pounds of fresh meats,
or nearly four times as much as two
or three years ago. More than half
of these imports, he said, were NUT
ton and lambs from Australasia, or
imports 25 times greater than the
exports of the United States.
Mr.. Myrick charged that the United
States department of agriculture for
years has overestimated the number
of sheep and swine and declared that
the departments estimate for Janu-
ary 1920, was in error, no less than
28 per cent.
