Washington—Great Britain's formal
note of protest against that section
of the I’rincma canal act which
t-xempis American coastwise shipping
from payment of tolls for passing
through the Panama canal, a docu-
ment written by Sir Edward Grey,
British minister for foreign affairs,
was presented to Secretary of State
Knox Monday by the British ambassa-
dor.
Janies Bryce read the note word for
word to the secretary at the latter’s
home. It is an elaboration of the
points of objection in the note pre-
sented to the state department last
July. In brief, these objections are:
To Resist Anti-Trust Provisions.
That while it was clearly in viola-
tion of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
either to remit or refund tolls on all
American shipping using the canal,
the same objection probably would
apply to the coastwise trade shipping,
in view of tlie probable impossibility. AMIV QITPPT IPS

Pride In His Work, Not Tender Heart,
Was What Induced the Chauf-
feur to Return.
They were going along the public
highway at a leisurely rate of forty j
miles p»*r hour, when u decrepit hen
and rooster started to do the chicken 1
special—cross the road.
The front and hind wheels on the
right side struck the poor old stiff
jointed rooster amidships, and with i
one squawk lie succumbed.
immediately the man at the steering
wheel started to slow down and to j
look ubout for a place to turn.
His solicitous wife turned to her
scatnnite and said:
"isn't that Just like his tender heart?
He won’t be satisfied unless he goes
, back and settles for that rooster. He
l just can*t bear to feel he has injured i
I anyone or anything "
Then louder, to her husband, she
; said: "George, remember that ap-
i pointment. We haven’t any time to i
[ go back for anything."
Glancing at the clock near his feet .
! and at the speedometer near by. he
I sighed and said:
"You’re right, Jennie; but I Just j
j know if i had turned back I could j
! have killed that old hen just as easy j
I as 1 did the rooster."—Judge.

Otherwise the note is devoted al- j
most entirely to an effort to demon-
strate that any such exemption of I
American shipping as is proposed is
in direct conflict with the terms ol
Ihe Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and that j
President Taft was clearly wrong
when he took the contrary view.
Generally, the British note might
be summed up as a clear definition j
of the differences between the two'
governments regarding the construc-
tion of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty,
winding up with a proposal that the
issues should be settled by arbitra-
tion, provided that they can not be
adjusted by mutual agreement, for
which a way remains open.
Careful Consideration Is Promised.
Secretary Knox listened attentively
to the reading of the note and prom-
ised to take the matter under careful
j consideration, which he felt would re-
quire some time. It has been strong-
ly intimated in official circles, how-
| ever, that it was the president's in-
| ten tion to settle (his important ques-
j lion before closing Ids administration,
either by recommending the senate to
agree to submit it to arbitration or,
preferably, by the more direct means
1 of an agreement between the two na-
tions referred to in Monday's British
note.
The ambassador was accompanied
by Mr. lnnes, the counselor and secre-
tary of the embassy, and in reading
the eutire British note to the secre-
tary followed the instructions of Sir
Edward Grey.

ARANSAS PASS MAY CEI OEiP CHAN®
Representatives Garner and Burgess
Appear Before the Engineers.
Outlook Very Encouraging.
Washington.—Aransas Pass is tc
get a 28-foot, channel at a cost of $2,-
?>25,000 if the board of engineers ap-
proves the report of the special boaTd
which investigated and made a report
on the project.
Representatives Garner and Bur-
i gess Monday appeared before the
I board of engineers and urged speed’,
action so that the matter may be
taken up by the committee on rivers
and harbors for the pending hill.
The special board on Aransas Pass
recommends the extension of the jet-
ties to the thirty-foot contour and
dredging to a depth of twenty-five
feet, which, with the current, would
result in a normal depth of twenty-
eight feet. The board is said to rec-
ommend this project in strong terms.
The board also recommends the clos-
'ing of the Morrison-Cummins channel,
just north of the private channel of
the Aransas Pass Channel and Dock
Company.
Representative Garner, who urged
this survey, hopes to get a continu-
ing contract for the channel improve-
ment with an initial appropriation ol
|E>00,000.

will be planted. The trees will be ol
the soft shelled varieties. The Me-
dina valley is famed for its pecans
and It is believed the uew enterprise
will be a big success. There ate uow
several pecan groves there which arc
paving good dividends to the owusrs

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY
R. F. D No. 1, Lewisburg. Ky.—“Fif-
teen years ago 1 was badly affected
with eczema upon my scalp first, then
It spread all over my body and con-
tinued to grow worse for four years.
It began with a dry rar-h. After form-
ing thick scales or scabs the Irritation
forced me to scratch the scabs off and
the liair would come out with them. ,
Upon my face and body the sores \
would get Inflamed and they disflg- i
ured my face. It was worse where
my clothes Irritated them. The erup-
tion was a yellowish watery kind,
sometimes bloody. In warm weather
it was so bad I was not able to work
on account of the raw irritating sores
on my head and body.
“After trying various medicines
without relief 1 tried Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. After using four cakes
of Cuticura Soap and four boxes of
Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of
the Resolvent I was entirely sound
und well and have been for eleven
years." (Signed) W. H. Williams,

One Fisherman's Idea.
First Angler—Look, this fish was
almost caught before; see the broken

than a human being.
In 1910 Texas produced 152 pounds of lint cotton
per acre. North Carolina produced 255 pounds.
Yet there are lots of people living in Texas today
who came here from North Carolina 25 years or
more ago because they thought the soil there was
worn out. North Carolina soils have been in culti-
vation over a hundred years longer than those of
Texas. How do her farmers get so much better
results? The answer is by using Commercial Fer-
tilizers. They build up their soils by supplying the
proper plant foods instead of depleting them every
year by removing crops and returning nothing.
Unless Texas Farmers wake up and begin to use
these up-to-date methods,it won’t belongbefore they
will have to move back to N. Carolina to make a living.
Write for our book on Fertilizers and howto
use them, and learn how to grow two bales
of cotton or 100 bushels of corn per acre.
