INDIANS WELCOME AT MIAMI
semlnoles Add Pleturesqueness {
WeII-known Florida Resort by
Their Gaudy Costumes.

Visitors to Miami are always In
terested In the Seminole Indians,
whether seen in their camps In the
Everglades padding down the Miami
river or the canals In their quaint ca
noes, or mingling with the crowds
upon the streets in their character
istic and picturesque dress, made OF
gaudy colored horizontal stripes OF
cloth.
During the summer the Indians go
far out into the Everglades, but In
winter months they come nearer the
city, and camp Of them is usually
situated on the Miami river just out
side the city limits. Here In trop-:
ical jungle, on the banks Of the river,
they erect their huts with thatched
roofs and sides, arranged In circle
with the communal campfire in the
center. The number in this camp
varies from 30 to so. They go back
and forth into the glades to their
truck farms for provisions and for fish
and game.
The Seminoles are peaceful
tribe, and cause no trouble.

Publishing Items Over and
Over Again.

The Salisbury News is Serving
notice" because some of it's patrons
commenced row when it refused
to publish items over and over again. "
1t was this way: Good people asked
publicity for proposed entertain
ments of "a most worthy kind, and
where no private money would re-
suit. This publication was cheerfully
made. But, then, continued publicity
for the same enterprise, day after
day, for a fortnight, was asked.
The News declared that this was
asking too much, however-public in
stitution private newspaper busi-
ness may be, that the subject matter,
having lost it's "news" feature had
lost it's right in the "news". columns
and that, having become pure adver-
tising, properly belonged to the ad-
vertising columns at so much per.
Newspapers everywhere face just
this situation always with trepidation.
They want to help in worthy under
takings. Yet if they would say "yes'
to every request along this line made
on them, they would soon butt the
rocks. 1t is difficult for a good citizen
to see why he or she, or his or her So
ciety, or his or community enterprise
into which they put days of hard
work and out of which they get, and
expect, absolutely no money or other
reward-should be expected to be
asked to have their projects pay fol-
newspaper publicity. Yet if the pub
Usher in an ordinary-sized town yield
to all of the requests of this kind, he
hurts his business materially.
This is one of the vexatious prob
lens of newspapering. AS for the
Salisbury paper, hereafter it is ego,
ing in for one publication only" and
after that "you'll find it in the adver,
tising columns or not at all."-Au-
gusta Chronicle.

Demon Was cuttletIsh.

For many centuries Norway has had
its legends telling frightful deeds OF
the kraken, great and mysterious
marine creature that was danger
to sailors on the high seas. Now
scientists have found that the locali-
ties in which these folk-tales flourish
are the habitat Of giant squids or cut
tlefsh," of the genus Architeuthus,
that have frequently been cast up
upon sea beaches. According to DR..
James Ritchie of the Royal Scottish
museum, the largest Of these on rec
ord had tentacles with span close
to 80 feet. 1t was nine feet nine
inches long from the tip of its tail to
to tip Of its short arms, but Its tenta-
cular arms were each IA feet long

GHOSTS THAT REALLY LIVE
In the Modern World Some Of Them
Actually Make Their Living,
Though Unknown.

There are ghosts in che material as
well as In the spirit world. In fact
some people earn their living by act
Ing as ghosts" Some GHOSTS" often
become prominent in their profession
despite the fact that their work is
little known.
Busy painters sometimes hand their
canvasses over to lesser known artists
to "touch up" or finish off. The
strugsler Is glad Of the work, the
artist Is able to do more and the re-
suit seems to please the public.
Minor authors often practice the
same thing. A man may be writing
a book on the history of Mexlco-let
us say. He needs certain informa-
ton which he knows can be obtained
from reference books. Gathering that
information does not require the
brains ef genius, his secretary can
do that quite well, while he works up
the "local color" from the bare facts
obtained. 1t is an open secret that
many writers work In this way and
that ghosts are often employed to
'.write up" books of "reminiscences Of
celebrities. Sometimes, the work these
authors" behind the scenes do Is i'm
portant. They revise novels, draw
"ends" together, work up "climaxes"
and give dramatic effect to "situa-
tions."-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Hunting and its attendant outdoor

the motive for great use of the forest

Of living game in the landscape, and

Produce Clean Infertile Eggs.

Clemson College, May 8.--lNow
that the breeding season is over,
poultrymen must give attention to
the production of eggs that are inter-
tile. The markets want infertile eggs,
and it is up to the producers to put
a product on the market that the peo-
pie will buy.
After the breeding season the
males should be separated from the
females. If the male birds are good
ones, they should be penned up sep
arately, and if they are just mediocre
it will not pay to feed and keep them
over till the next breeding season.
The government estimates state
that the farmers lose s15,G10, 900 a
year on fertile eggs. The U. S. De-
partment Of Agriculture says: "You
can save the $15,OOO,00O now lost
from blood rings by keeping the male ma
bird from your flock after the hatch
ing season is over. The rooster does
not help the hen to lay. He merely
|fertilizes the germ of the egg. The fer
tile germ in hot weather quickly Pc
comes blood ring, which spoils the
egg for food and market. Summer
heat has the same effect on fertile
eggs as hen or incubator" q
And it is not merely a question OF
infertne eggs. That is very impor-
tant, but if-infertile eggs aren't pro-
duced under sanitary conditions, it
will be almost impossible to produce
good clean eggs, says N. R. MehrHog,
Extension Poultry Specialist.
Clean nests must be provided for
the hens to, lay the eggs in, one hes
for every four to FIVE hens. It's I'M
portant to gather the eggs often, at
least twice day. If the hens are
kept in sanitary environment; good
clean eggs will be produced. These
should be marketed often.
