ARMS FROM FLINT DEPOSITS
investigators Have Shown Where
mound Builders" Got Their
Supply of Materials.

Methods of ancient munition making
are revealed by recent Investigations
of the Ohio State Archaeological and
Historical society, which show that
the tribes which once inhabited Ohio.
the so-called Mound Builders" got
their supply of flint for their arrow
heads, spears, and knives from the de-
posits of flint which occur in the fer
riferOuS limestone of Flint ridge
In Licking and Muskingum counties.
A great industry llOurished there
once. Skilled Quarrymen, with
patience difficult to appreciate when
one finds that their tools were only
hammerstones of granite or quartzite,
with perhaps the aid of wooden or
hone wedges. worked out the stone
from the lodges. Either the quarry
men or another group of wOrkmen
then roughed out the blank forms
from which the implements were to be
made. This was done thar imperfec.
tons might be discovered and also to
save the transportation of useless ma
terial.
The roughed-0ut blocks were then
taken to the workshops in the vicinity
of the quarry and expert workmen
fashioned from them lcaf-like blades
from which, with but little further
work, all forms of arrow points, spear
points drills. knives and scrapers
could be made.

NEW WAREHOUSE LAW.
Advocates Claim 1t will Add to the
Profit of the Farmer.

Hereafter all tobacco offered for
sale on South Carolina markets will
have to be tied and graded. The
new warehouse law has been signed
by the governor. The following is
! from the News and Courier:
The representatives from the Pee
Dee section in the final passage and
approval of their tobacco warehouse
bill feel that this will mean very
much to the development of the to-
bacco industry, and go so far as to
predict that with the enforcement
of this law, in the course of five
or ten years the tobacco industry
will mean more to the state in dol
lars and cents than the cotton in
dustry at the same time. Briefly
stated, the bill provides that any to-
bacco warehousemen who shall han
die or offer for sale any ungraded
o. united tobacco shall pay license
of $4,000. The plain purport is that
this license shall be so high that it
will force all warehousemen to grade
and tie all tobacco before Offering
it for sale. 1t is contended that the
mere matter of grading and tying
of tobacco so that the buyer will
know definitely what they are get
ting enhances the value from to
IL cents per pound. Statistics show
that it is claimed that in North Caro-
lima because of the grading and ty-
ing of tobacco the average has been
over eleven cents per pound more
than in South Carolina. It is also
claimed that the tobacco raised in
the Pee Dee section is just as good
ard averages just as high as that
raised in North Carolina.
Another purpose of the bill is to
extend the season for the handling
of tobacco until about the first Of
January. It is claimed that many Of
the buyers and warehousemen have
made the South Carolina business a
sideline and rush the season in six
weeks, whereas by forcing the gra-
ding and tying of tobacco before it is
offered for sale will extend the sea
son it is urged until January I, and
will bring about a more orderly con-
duct of the business.
In North Carolina the warehouse
men tie and grade their tobacco by
mutual agreement. It is claimed that
this agreement could not be reached
here, hence the necessity for legisla-
ton. The representatives from the
Pee Dee section claim that this is
the most important piece Of legis-
lation for them that has been under

VESSELS BUILT IN SECTIONS
Ships Intended for Operation ON Lakes
Far Inland Are Now Trans-
ported Piecemeal.

A well-known shipbuildtng Arm In
the north OF England is ut the present
time building vessel which will be
carried to Africa in portions. 1t will
be re-assembled at its ultimate desti-
nation.
Every year ships are built in Great
Britain for use on lakes and inland
waters In all parts of the world. Usu-
ally these are built anu bolted togeth-
er In the 'shipyard before being taken
to pieces and sent to distant parts IN
separate packages.
large mission steamer built some
years ago for use on Lake Nyassa, in
AFRICA, was erected in England ;as If
for launching. But no rivets were
used; bolts and nuts held the steel
framework together. The sides, port
ana starboard, were painted in differ
ent colors, and every bar, plate, and
piece of 'steelwOrk bore different
number and letter.
Thus the builders in Africa could
tell at n glance whether plate be-
longed to one side or the other; the
exact position it was intended to oc-
cupy was denoted by the reference
number and letter.
In ORDER to facilitate transport, this
steamer was divided into over three
thousand packages, each Of which
weighed from half hundredweight to
five hundredweights.
The greatest difficulty encountered
IN sending these ships abroad Is with
the boilers and masts. The boilers
weigh many tons, and the masts are
difficult to handle on account Of their
length.
