Bronwood is to have a guano

The const companies once enjoyed
a monopoly in the manufacture of

o carthly reason why all* the gu

the amonia bearing ingredicnt
obtained in theinterior. The cot
ton seed oil mills have made guano
manuteeture in the interior on a

which it has developed resulted in

A negro, fishing in the Savann.h,

Se:pahtine Problem, ;

vounded this problem to a num.
‘ber of fellaw eavants: Buppose
three snakes, cach two feet in
length should catch each other by
the tip of the tail, thus making a:
circle six feet in circumference,
Suppose that each. snake should
begin to swa'low the snake in
front ot him. In what way
would the resultant figure, after
each snake had swallowed the one’
in front of him, differ from the
original circle? There were many
diverse opinions upon the subject*
some of them entering the consids
evation of the fourth dimensiod’
of space, because any one of the
gnakes would have swallowed one’
in front of him, and yet have heen
swallowed by the two back of
him, and therefors would be both
inside and outsile of his two fols
