BANK OF NEWELLToN Tenn
PORARILY SUSPENDS
BUSINESS.

It is with regret that we are called
upon to announce the fact that the
Bank Of Newellton found it neces-
sary to temporarily close its doors
on Monday last. This unfortunate
condition is due to the fact that the
depressed condition existing in that
vicinity made it impossible to collect
certain Of its large loans.
Mr.. L. E. Thomas, the State Bank
Examiner, has been in Newellton
during this week, making an exami-
nation into its affairs, and we are
pleased to announce to the public
that he has given authority to the
Bank to reopen upon the payment OF
an assessment Of sixty per cent on
the outstanding stock of the bank,
stating that such an assessment will
place the bank in a good and safe
condition for the re-opening Of bust
ness, thus securing all the deposit
ors and other creditors of the bank.
At the meeting Of the Board Of
Directors of the Bank, held on Thurs
day, the 31st Of March, an assess
ment Of sixty per cent against all
Of the outstanding stock was made,
and it is confidently expected that
this assessment will at once be paid
in, and that the bank viii reopen
its doors for business within q short
while in a more vigorous and prom
Using condition than In the recent
past.

Spring management Of bees ID
very important Il the bees are ex.
pected to produce mnch honey the
following season, said E. C. Davis,
specialist in bee culture at the State
University Extension Division. After
the warm spring weather has set in
it is best 10 60 through each hive
carefully, see what condition they
are in and supply food where it d
needed, he said.
Starvation in the spring will
cause the queen to stop laying, /"
continued Mr.. Davis. "There are two
kinds Of starvation-one is absolute
when the bees have no honey; the
other Is relative when the bees have
50 little honey that they cannot raise
q brood. In the latter case the surp-
lus honey should be taken from the
well-supplied hives and given to the
weaker colonies. This will tide over
some Of the colonies which otherwise
would die.
The more bees in the early spring,
the greater the amount Of nectar Il
gathered BY them and hence larger
supply Of honey. As early as pos
sible 60 through each hive and il the
colonies are weak unite two or more
Of them and make one strong colony.
One Of these strong colonies will pro-
duce surplus Of one to two hundred
pounds Of honey, while the two weak
ones would not produce any"

cHARBoN VACCINATION.

To the Live Stock Owners Of Tensas
Due to the prevalence Of charbon
infection, in various sections Of the
State last summer, this board earn
estly advises early incubation OF
vaccination, this season, on the part
Of the live stock owners in order to
anticipate any probable outbreaks
Of this disease and for the purpose OF
having their stock protected in am
pie time before the advent Of warn
weather, which Is the Charlton Sea-
son.
Past experience has demonstrated
that best results are obtained when
animals are vaccinated against char
bon early in the spring as to allow
q sufficient time, in which to secure
protection, before the season ap-
proaches when Charlton infection
usually develops.
The State Live Stock Sanitary
Board strongly urges, therefore,
that where Charlton infection has
been known to exist in previous
years, vaccination Of animals should
be commenced not later than the
early part Of March.
II stock owners win give this mat
ter their careful attention It win In
crease the number Of protected ami
mails at the beginning Of the char
bon season and materially limit the
spread Of the disease, should the
coming summer prove faverable t.
he development Of Charlton infec-
ion.

Latin Words In our Language.

The Norman-French people who

speaking people several thousand
words with a few alterations. Then.
at the Revival OF Learning. a still
larger number OF Latin words came
into our language. The Latin word

 At the same time another gang of the crew were dumping into the wa ter through this same check valve 22, 900 pounds of lead that was car ried as ballast. Only one jug of fresh water was on the submarine and this was soon gone because the men. chOk- Ing from the fumes of the chlorine gas drank it fast.
 When the crew of Standard Oil tug No 2S saw the burning signals of the s-4s they thought that it was a ship afire and rushed to the submarine with her crew at quarters ready to pour water on the blazing signals. The men below received the worst fright of the trip. If the oil tug had poured water on the submarine 1t might have shifted the position of the boat and caused it to sink. What the men feared most was that the salt water would flood the boat and the battery room causing more chlorine fumes to be generated and suffocate the entire crew.
