Portable Trenches Invented by Marine
Portable trenches built by United States Marines at Quantico Vermont provide movable practice stalls for hand grenade drills. Sections ten feet long with a three foot parapet form a pine frame mimicking real trenches. Marines throw non explosive grenades from inside stalls to targets fifty feet away, simulating enemy trenches. Longer, taller Marines tend to throw with a sweeping overhead reach similar to seasoned grenadiers.

Need for Cotton Mills in Texas and Brazos Valley
The Texas cotton crop could yield about 2 billion dollars if fully manufactured locally, but current plans stay modest. Texas hosts nearly twenty mills delivering strong dividends, and mill centers boost farmer prices by 10 to 20 percent. The Brazos valley eyeing mills sees limited progress due to capital and lack of textile graduates, despite cotton mills' profitability when well managed.
