Cro Recently Found In Tennessee
Seems to Substantiate Belief
Long Held by Scientist.
Corn that grew In Tennessee in pre
historic times, possibly before Joseph
put away his seven yeurs' supply in
Egypt, was unearthed recently by V.
E. Meyer of the ISurenu of American
Ethnology and sent to the Lnlted
States Department of Agriculture for
Identification.
Durins recent excavations In David
son county, Tennessee, Mr. Meyer cunie
upon a number of stone slab gruves
contnlnlng mortuary vess.'ls. Some of
these held specimens of charred maize
in fulrly good condition, from Uie
size and shape of the grains It was
possible to Identify the vnrhny as
many-rowed troplcul Hint, a form ubout
halfwuy between true Hint and pop
corn.
The same type of Imllnn corn occurs
in the West Indies, and there is no
question In the minds of scientists
but that there wns a very early com
munication between the West Indies
and North America. Not only com
but beuns, sguuslies, pumpkins und
tobacco are of tropical and subtropi
cal origin.
These staples, now so Importunt
throiiL'limit both hemispheres, found
their way into North America nnd were
cultivated beyond the Great Lukes in
Canada long before' the discovery of
America. There is ubunduut evidence
of communication between the West
Indies and Florida, nnd up the Missis
sippi and Its tributaries.

Northern Rhodesia, Rich and Fertile,

With the ever-Increasing overflow of

that such an inflow already Is taking

equator the Rhodesian plateau is
adapted to the white nien by Veason of
a climate that has no extremes. More
over, Its boom cities of Buluwayo and
Salisbury possess hotels, clubs, busi

the flush of hope that It would be a
second Rand, then deserted by the for
tune hunters, nnd now waiting the
coming of a more sober and sustained
development

Ireland's Egg Industry.
Ninety million dozen eggs were ex
ported from Ireland lust year. Prices
ranged high, and the value of the
trade was estimated at over $75,000,
000. This exceeds the value of the
country's exports of any single manu
factured article; the cattle trade. In
deed, is the only one which can show
more imposing figures. Much of the
credit for the improvement that has
taken place in Ireland's poultry trade
is due to the department of agricul
ture. During the last 20 yeurs its In
structors have taught the farmers and
farmers' wives thut, given the neces
sary care and attention, fowls are
among the greatest assets. As the re
