PREPARING NEW
MAP OF SHIES
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2G. — Kapld
progress Is being made by the United
States in preparing its portion of the
huge world map which was agreed
upon in 1909 by nearly all the princi
pal countries. By international agree
ment the authorities began preparing
maps of the entire surface of the earth
to be published on a scale of one-mil
lionth of actual size, or about one inch
to every sixteen miles. All the maps
are to be uniform In shape and gen
eral appearance and are to have the
same conventional signs.
To meet the popular demand In this
country for state maps, the United
States geological survey, which has
charge of the making of the American
section of the world map, Is preparing
and publishing maps of each state on
a larger scale than the world map sec
tions. These state maps are twice
the size or about one inch to every
eight miles. A map of the entire
United States on that scale w-ould cov
er a sheet measuring twenty feet by
thirty-one feet.
The survey already has issued such
maps for thirty-three states, the latest
being that of Florida, which is one of
the largest of the series. In compiling
the maps every available source of in
formation has been ransacked for tna
, terial, and many data never before
! available to the public in any form
have been procured, so that the maps
exceed in accuracy any heretofore
published. The new Florida map mea
sures 44 1-2 inches by 61 inches,

There is as much difference I n Ranges as there is In horses. All
Ranges have flues, ovens, ash pan s, etc. You can’t judge a Range
from a printed description any more than you can judge a horse that
way. You have to see them to un derstand why one is cheap at the
price, and another Is dear at any p rice. See the MAJESTIC display
