; New Orleans, La—Discussing the
¢goiton situation, Richard H. Ed-
yinonds, editor of The Manufacturers’
p Rasord, who is tn‘the south making @
sutdy of crop prospects and probable
f consumption, said:
; “The American spinners are belng
played for suckers by foreign spin-
j ners, and they\are being played with
"an energy that ought to satisfy the
‘Tost enthustasilc sherman. Ia othe
er words, foreign spinners ave en-
deavoring in every way/posslule to
eonvince the spinners th this coun-
try and all other people {deatified
with the cotton trade that the price
of the raw cotton is too high, and
that the way to bring about 2 reduc-
Uon ts to shut down mills until cot-
ton declines to a point satisfactory
to the buyer.
“The American spinners are taking
this talk of the foreign spinners seri-
ously, and while they are, to a large
extent, as compared with previous
years, keeping out of the market, for-
eign ‘spinners are buying every ‘bate
of cotton they can get their hands on.
‘The question of price dees not seem
to enter into their actual calcula-
tions, although they are struggling
to ‘impress upon American spinners
the folly of buying at present prices.
“No one familiar with the shrewd-
ness and the knowledge of business
conditions throubgout the world of
Jorelgn spinners should be surprised
at the game which they are playing.
At bas boen played steadily for more
than half a century, but there is room
for surpride ,that American spinners
should so réadily fall Into the trap.
“Ag a matter of fact, the present
price of cotton is not unduly high. It
Is not in fact even at present figures:
yielding to the farmers the prone
which should be won out of this, na-
ture’s greatest monopoly. -Considering’
the increased cost of proiluction and
the Increased cost of living, it is
doubtful whether 12-cent cotton is giv.
ing better net results to the producer
than 8 or D-cent cotton would have
vdone seven or elght years’ ago. To
assume that the world will not con-
sume this enlire crop, even If It soit
at 15 cents a pound, is absurd to any
man who is thoroughly familiar with
the world’s business conditions and
who recognizes that, until an article
reaches a practically —prohibitory
price, consumption is not materially
lessened by what, under other condl-
tions, might have been regarded as a
high _ pried.
“All mankind is livipg on a bigher
plane Wages in the Orient and in
‘Rurope, as well as in this country,
havo been steadily advancing for
Some years, with occasional brief pe-
Tiods of reaction, such as that follow-
ing the panic of 1907. But, broadly
speaking, there is a steady, world.
wide forward movement. 7
“The fron producers, the growers
of wheat and corn and’ other agricul-
tral products, and manufacturers of
nearly all Moes are sharing in this
increased activity and increased prof-
it to a groater extent than the cgt-
ton growers of the south. If there
had been no material shortage in the
yleld of cotton compared with last
Year, there should have been, mere-
ly to keep pace with the advance in
‘other things, a rise of 25 to 20 per
cent in the price of cotton over the
average of the preceding crop.
“The world’s improved — business
conditions would have justified this.
When we remember that whatever
may be the actual final outcome it Is
An unquestionable fact that the crop,
will be yery much less than last
year, white the consumption will cer-
tainly Ve as large, it would seem that
present prices have not yet reached
@ point of fairness to the grower. It
is incumbent upon every business tn-
terest in the south to recognize the
wsituation and to unite to help the
jfarmer in securing a price in keep-
‘ing with the present Increasing pros-
‘perity In every other industry. Instead
sof seeking to depress the price of cot-
iton, the south should’ unite to seek
to advence the price. “At present ev-|
ery man who Is paying any serious
attention to the talk of forelgn spin-
mers is simply helping them to laugh
‘up one sleeve, while with the other
jhand they aro reaching behind bis
pack and gathering in‘ every possible
Iuale of cotton.
“Later on, when the foreign spin-
ners have Secured the best of the
jerop and the American spinners un-
‘dertake to supply thelr own needs,
they will wake up to the game that)
‘Sas been played upon them.”

© El Paso, Texas—The long expect-

and President Diaz of the Republic
of Mexico, took place here, Outwara-
ly “it was attended with a display
of soldiery, a flare of trumpets, a
boom of cannon and © pomp of cere-
mony suggestlve of supreme author-
ity; but in the actual handclaps- of
the two executives and in the ex-
change of courtesles words which
passed from lip to lip there was sim-
ple but cordial informality.
President Diaz was the first to
speak. He assured President Taft
of his warm personal regard and his
high esteem gf the man who had ac-
complished sb much in the Phillp-
pines, in Cuba and elsewhere, and
who had now the honor to be the
chief executive of so great x nation
as the United States.: President Taft,
{u simple American fashfon, declared
he was glad to meet President Diaz.
He was glad to know the President
of such a great nation; especially
glad to know the present president,
who had made the nation great,
Both presidents dwelt upon the cor-
diallty of the relations existing be-
tween the United States and Mexico.
President Taft declared that the mect-
ing wes not necessary to maxe the
bonds of friendship stronger—it mere-
ly typified the strength of the bonds
as they already exist. =
‘There‘were less than a score of per-
sons permitted to witness the meet-
ing of the two executives. Even
these were excluded later when Pres-
ident Taft and ‘President Diaz with-
drew into an Inner room of the Cham-
ber of Commerce bullding, where the

REMEDIAL MEASURES
FOR SAN JOSE SCALE
Atlanta, Ga—The Georgia State
Board of Entomology has recently
coucluded a series. of experiments
with various oils and lime and sul-
phur compounds as remedial meas:
ures for San Jose scale. The results
of these experiments, soon té be
sent out “from the department in bul.
letin form, are sure te be of value
io fruit growers and orchardists of
Georgia. ,
The purpose Of the experiments was
to test the efficiency of soluble oil
compounds as compared with the
standard home-made, preparation of
lime and sulphur, and the more re-
cently introduced manufactured com.
pounds of lime and sulphur. Six dif-
ferent oils were included in the test,
as follows: Target Brand Emulsion,
Scalecide,, San-U-Zay, Soluble Petro-
Icum, Kil-O-Scale, Schnarr's Scale
Compound No. 1, Schnarr’s Scale
Compound No. 2. Two brands of
prepared lime and sulphur were used
alongside of the oil. One plat" of
drees was sprayed with the standard
boiled mixture of lime atid sulphur,
prepared on the grounds,
Several of the soluble ofls in ihe
above list have been known in Georgia
for a number of years, They have
been used in different sections of the
state with varying degrees of syecess.
Primaiily they were imtended to fill
the demand for an insecticide otner
than the home-made lime and sulphur,
with which there Was considerable
dissatistaction because of the trouble
invelved in making and applying it.
To # large extent they displace lime
and sulphur. Reports on the results
opiained from oils have not always
been satisfactory, It has becn the
sexperiezee of many fruit growers
that they were unreliable, and there
has becn much complaint from yar?
‘ous sources that they, as scale de-
stroyers, were not entirely satisfac-
‘tery. .
Within the past two years prepared
cencentiated lime and sulphur has
made its appearance in the field. This
cumpeund ig a reddish liquid, strained
and perfectly free of solid matter.
Two years ago it was tried in an ¢a-
perimental way by the department,and
promised well as a scale insecticide.
La:t winter it was used extensively
in the commercial orchards of the
state, and in every case where it was
well applicd the results were of a very
high order. Although not showing op
the trees as plainly as the home-made
matcrial, it leaves them a dull gray
in coler, suciently so to determine the
‘quality of the spraying. Beside the
home-made product of the lime and
sulphur wash, the manufactured arti-
cle compares most favorably. When
manufactured by a reliable company
the latter is really more uniform in
composition than ihe former.
The following is a summary of our
report on preparations used, in our
exp2riments:
“jt will be seen in the preceding
pages that all the oils included in the’
lest, particularly those whose reputa-|
tion is well .established, gave excel-|
lient results in controlling the scale.
| They may be depended upon to glye
j satisfaction, as a rule, when properly
and thoroughly mixed and applied.
Too grext emphasis cannot be placed
on the necessity of doing the actual
field work theroughlr. An inch of
badly infested limb or twig Icft un-
touched by the spray is capable of
largely reinfesting psactically the en-
tire tree the following summer. -
“While each off was applied as a
spring treatment and as a fall treat-
ment it was found'in every case that
the fall treatment was of superior ef-
fectiveness, This is a rule: ‘The earller
the spray can Ve applied after the
leaves have fallen, the better will be
the net results.
“The mechanical appliances of ap-
plication are extremely important, es:
pecially with soluble oils, A good pump
deyeloping a high ‘pressure and a noz-
zle throwing a direct, forceful spray,
are very necessary to obtain good
results,
“The concentratcd lime and sulphur
solutions, :being tree of all solid mat-
ter, cffer no more serious obstacles to
easy spray than the ‘oils. They are
much more caustic in nature, however,
and it is well to be protected from
continuous pkysical contact with
them. Under well regulated conditions
they spray 2s easily as water might,
and no more harmful to the person,
compared to the svluable oil com-
pounds for efficiency; they yield. quite
as good 1esults,as the best oils, even
when the latter are used at a greater
strength than recommended Ly the
manufacturers. A tree well sprayed
with lime and sulphur always offersa
cleaner, brighter and, healthier appear.
ance than a‘tree equally well sprayed
with an cil. Besides ilsgstrictly in-
secilcidal value, lime and Suplhur pos:
acsces fungicidal properties to a much
grcater degree than it is possible to
incorporate in a soluble oil.” -

Chairman Hutchens of the prison
commission and Hon. Gus Woodliff of
Flowery Branch, representative from
Hall county, debated at some length
the weighty question as to whether
the state should sell or hold the cgt-
ton raized this year on the prison
farm, There are now 1,000 "bales ot
cctton at the state farm, The staple
is selling around 13 1-2c. Whether to
sell now or hold for a rise, is the
question the prison commission is en-
dcavoring to decide, If thé state sells
now it will get the interest on the
$85,000 or $79,000 which the cotton is
worth, :

There are two roads from Tangle>
to Fez, the one passing through A’-
euzar and the other foliowing the
seashcre via Larache. The former
is the more direct and except during
the rainy season is usually chosen by
the traveller, but the beach roaq to
Larache possesses many attractions
and you are able to spend a night at
the old Portuguese settlement of Ar-
zila, which {s ‘a model of the for-
tresses of two centuries 2g0.
No one has ever yet measured ac-
eurately the exact distance which
separates Tangier from Fez, and I
hope the next person to make tho
journey will take a bicycle wheel
with a cyclometer attached to settle
the vexed qu2stion once and for all.
Roughly I pit the distance at 185 to.
190 miles, and it is usual to take
from six to eight days on the road,
thus JImiting the dafly march to twen-
ty-five miles, which is quite sufficient
if you want to shoot on arriving in
camp.
The journey can be done comfort:
ably in six days if your animals are
not too heavily loaded, and I have
ridden from Fez _to Larache in three
days during the heat of August, but
it is an experiment not to be recom:
| mended. .
| Except during the months of July,
August and September the climate of
Morocco Js temperate and pleasant.
The early spring is, however, the
best season for a journey, as.the
tropical rains which are Ilkely to
overwhelm ygu, in the late autumn
and early Sater have ceased. The
rivers are serious obstacles during
the rainy season, as there are no
bridges and no ferries except close
to the coast, and consequently if the
fords are impracticable you are like-
ly to be hung up on the banks of a
river for a very considerable time.
The rivers are wide and shallow, but
fre lable to rise and fall six to
eight feet in twenty-four hours, Your
baggage must be carrieq on mules or
horses.
There are ng regular toads in Mo-

‘Ten years elapsed. Hester Blair
awoke one morning in her luxurious,
half-darkened room, forgetful of-the
great triumph of the night before,
forgetful ‘of everything except that
she was tired. The sun fell in little
streaks past the sides of the window
shades and made long, bright lines
‘on the floor. There was no joy for
Hester in waking up. No-conscious-
ness of rest or renewed vigor. Sim-
ply the same dread of the beginning
of a new day, which she had felt
every morning for the last two tired
years.
She called the mafd and asked to

dragged the pillows into a mass as
the curtains were being raised and
Jeaned back against their support.

as she picked it up she saw that he
had written a message on his card.
She did not pause to read it, but ran
out—sickly—edger to be away. She
had done what she tried to do and
she was tired. Later when the maid
had been dismissed she sat by her fire
and looked at the violets lying in her
lap. Upon the card she took it out
she read this: "i
“You are wohderful. I take back
my prophecy. You have wou a vic~
tory.”
She ratsed her head with her'cyes
full of tears. The pink dress lay in
all its beauty before her:

F denying the Lady
The young minister temporarily
officiating at Hankins’ Falls for tho
summer met Ehud Leffingwell as he
was walking to-church on Sunday
morning. * 7
“How do, Mister Lemngwell?” ‘he
cried, cheerfully. “Going to church
this beautiful morning?” hon
“Hay?” asked Ehud, who was pret-
ty hard of hearing. “Hay?”
“Are—you—coming—to—churéh?”
roared the minister.
“Nub,” Ehud responded, “Lookin’
few my caow. She must ‘a’ got out
the barn las’ night, Unhooked the
hasp, I cal-late, an’ jest straye¢—"
“Come—on—to church,” the min-
ister shouted cordially, “and after
preaching I'll tell the congregation,
and they'll help you. You'll get your
cow much quicker.”
“B'focks! I'll go ye,” said Ebud,
heartily, and he fell into step witli the
young ministér., At tue,church door
he was overcome by modesty and, de-
claring that he didn’t have his-Sun-
day-go-to-meetin’ clothes on, insisted
upon sitting in one of the most dis-
tant pews. 2
He didn’t hear the sermon at all,
but he could tell when ft was over by
seeing the young minister fold up his
manuscript and put it away. ‘This
done, the young man began te make
announcements. “Ehud raised his
right hand in a great leathery scoop
behind his ear, but still ho heard
nothing. =
“My deat friends,” said the minis-
ter, “it affords me great pleasure to
tell you that on Tuesday evening next,
at the hour of six o;clock, there will
be celebrated at the home of the
bride's parents the wedding of Mr.
Edward Stoutenboro, one of our most
esteemed and promising young men,
and that charming, estimable young
lady—as beautiful as she Is good—
Miss Mehitabel Dodsworth.”
‘As the minister ceased everybody
was astonished to see Ehud Leffing-
well arise in his pew.
“An’ ye might add, parson,” he
shouted, “that her eyes ain't mates
an’ she's & leetle mite lame in the off

“The ‘Gila’‘Monster*::
By J. W. SCHULZ.
~'Whe,other day I came across a fine
large Gila monster (Heloderma sus:
| pecturn) wading along a dusty trail,
noosed it-with a piece’ of string and
cafried It to camp. “‘You want to be
careful how You handle them things,”*
Sonora warned me. “Many a fellows
has died by bein’ bit by "em.
J asked for particulars, names of
the vietims, dates and plages-of thelr
untimely demise, duration ‘and char-
acter of thelr sufferings “Well, I my-
self never seen any one bit by ‘em,”
he answered, “but I've heard of ‘em
plenty. Any Metican will tell you
that thelr bite kills."
T used an old washtub for a pen
for my Hzards, and that evening when
Enders’ chickens went to roost i vap-
tured a lean ‘and venerable rooster
for an experiment F haq in view. In
the-morning, grasping the bird by the
legs, I thrust it time and again head
first against the head of the monster,
but the latter only shrank back and
sluggishly. attempted to turn tall to
the attacks. I goaded ft with a stick,
even switched it with a willow eut-
ting, but nothing I did eroused Its
fre. Finally I killed the heloderma,
made an Incision in, the rooster's
thigh and fnoculated it' with the well
mixed blood, saliva and fluld from
the former's mouth, throat and upper
‘and lower Jaw. .
““T'll bet that rooster ‘Il be dexd tn
an hour!" exclaimed Sonora, who was
assisting In the experiment.
- “Y don't know about an hour, but
I'll bet, he'll be dead before night,”
Old Timer offered.
‘Three days have elapsed, and ex-
cept for a slight lameness the rooster
has shown no effect of the ordeal. At
this moment he fs scratching around
at the head of his harem and crowing
as nonchalantly as ever he did. I

invites our men of means and abil-
ity to branch out. The time is
now ripe; grasp the opportunity
‘before it is too late. o
Ovnk young ‘mei should
think more about self-uplift and
Tess of a good time, spending
their money for pleasures and
“burning the candle at both ends,”
one of the things that the enemies
of the race encourage us to do.
Don’t be encouraged in that direc-
tion.
‘Tus is a prosperous year with
the farmers. Many of them have
raised'good crops and are getting
a larger price for their cotton
than heretofore. And right here
itis necessary for a certain class
of our farmers to be cautioned and
advised to, husband their earnings.
Ofcourse all honest debts should
be paid, but at the same time they
should not forget to lay aside a
goodly part of their earnings for
the season when reverses may
‘come. .
Deramers of our race like Tom
Watson, donot come in contact
with the better element among us.
They consider things as they once
obtained during the days of slave-
ry and only observe that class of
our women who are mostly seen,on
the public highways, We have
among us women who are chaste
and refined and hontes that are
uplifting. If Tom Watson and his
ilk would learn more about the
home-life of the better element of
our people an. visit less the slums
and localities Avhere many of us are
unfortunttely huddled together,
they would change their opinion
about the chastity of our women.
On account of eonditions, Tom
‘Watson has taken advantage of us
by insulting our women. A manly
man would help to uplift the weak
‘and not give an insult beeause he
has the power to do so.
‘Tue paper read by School Com-
missioner, Chas. L:. Coon of North
Carolina, before the Educational
meeting ast spring in Atlanta,
refutes entirely, the statement of
State School Commissioner Pound
of this state. In speaking of Vir-
ginia, North,Carolina and Geor-
gia, Mr. {Coon said that “if in
these states we take the amounts
the Negroes actually pay on pro-
perty and polls, their part of the
faxes imposéd on railroads and
other corporations, their part of
the license taxes devoted to
schools, it will be found that the
Negroes part of the school fund
raised * * by Georgia in 1907,
$647.852, Georgia spent the
same year, $506.170. “Thus it
‘will be seen,” continued Mr. Coon,
“that when any fair division of
the school funds of these states is
made, onthe race basis, the Ne-
groes, will fare as well as they are
now faring in the absence of such
race division.
“It has been generally assumed that
the white tax payer is now bearing
pearly allthe barden of the Nezro pub
Uc Bat the fi for North
Carolina, Virginia and ‘Georgia soem to
indicato clearly that this is not the case.
‘Jf wo divided the present school fands
of the south on the raco basis, how
‘would wo divide the funds raised by
faxes on railroad and other corpora-
fon property ‘which is not listed 28
either white or black? .How would we
divide the license taxes and the income
from the permanent school funds? It
seems fair to assume that all such finds
‘would ave to be divided accordinz to
population. If that is done, then it is
Rot likely that the present ‘cost of tho
‘Negro publioechools is a burden on the
‘white tax\rayer of the sontb.”
Tos Tapuye is willing to
stand by the figures as given
above and discount those of our
State Schoo} Commissioner, who
tried to give Georgia credit for
more than she is doing for the
colored children and also stating
that the State gives $8000.00 for
our higher education when it gives
nots penny,
Miss Youna who addressed the
‘Women Missionary meeting in ses-
sion in this city during the week,
told some mighty truths in saying
that it ismot well ‘for our. girls to
‘work in many homes on account of
being unprotected from the many
moral lepers, and too, , on account
‘of tho very poor pay that is given.
‘Tym Tamone has very often stated
that if those who need the ser-
vices of our women and girls
would pay higher wages and give
them more protection, they would
be able ‘to get.a better class of
help. Unfortunately for our girls
they are being assailed on all sides.
Crrcunars have been sent to
many of the leaders in each county

Ervorts are being made to uni-
versally observe the fiftieth year of
the execution of John Brown. The
history of John Brown is well
known to every colored reader.
He was among_the first martyrs
for the cause of freedom, and his
memory should be ever kept. green.
In our city we have alargonum-
ber of young men who are holding
good positions and earning a fair
salary. Many of these young men
are, spendthrifts. Itis time
for these young men to call a halt
and commence preparing ‘for the

Aw alleged brutality of 2 police-
man was noted to haye occarrey
last week on the east side. While
passing a policeman standing on
the corner. it is alleged that a
harmless dog was -without cause
brutllay struck by the policeman.
Acolored lady to whom the dog
belongs remonstrated, and she.avas
said to have been attacked by the
policeman who cayght her by the
collar and shook her unmercifully
and-demanded that she should keep
quiet.. “Lhe appearance of a friend
caused the policeman to loosen his
hold on the Iady. If this is true,
the lady should have lost no time
in reporting the occurrence to
those in authority’, whom we know
will not stand for such acts.of any
policeman. And in fact brutality
of this kind should not be allowed
to go by without some protest.
These People Should be
commended.
~ An occasion that deserves mor¢
than passing notice was an educa-
iional rally: held at Brampton Bap-
tist Church in Woodville, a su-
burban village near this city. It
seems that the school house in
Woodville used for the county
public school system is in a horri-
ble condition, -and as is ‘ell
Jmown the public school authori-
ties do not provide school houses
for Negro children as is done for
whites, the people of Woodville
met and formed themselves into
an association to raise funds for
the purpose of building a school
house. ‘The various churches
agreed to hold rallies for the pur-
pose of raising this building fund
and on last ‘Sunday the first of
these rallies was held at Bramp-
‘ton Church, Rey. P.\W. Hunter,
pastor, with the resuJt that more
than forty dollars was collected.
They had with them several
friends from the city who spoke
words of encouragement and pro-
mised financial. assistance towards
the cause. The other churches of
the neighborhood will hold simi-
lar rallies until sufficient money
has been raised for the purpose
outlined. -
This movement deserves the at-
tention and emulation of other
communities in this county and in
a short time Chatham County will
be dotted with such school build-
dings as is necessary for'the com.
fort of our children and teachers.
Let the good work continue.

Ecitor Savannah Tritiane;
Dear Sir: WIN you kindly insert a

good of an ‘organization of the men of
Savannah for commercial advancement?
"Is there a nepd for such an organiza-
floa? dt is true one has never been able
toexist for aoy length of time; but was
the time ripe? Were the men laterested!
Did they realize the iipportance-of auch
cooperative move? “Was it conducted on
a straightforward business basis?
‘Yes sir, the time is ripe for a live,
healthy and active association in Savan.
agh, of men who should quiekly perceiye
the demands and supply the samne,
There has always been a ungolmous
opinion expressed that ‘there was’ a need
Tor an asspclation: but the trouble always
came inthe working out. 1 do bellexe
that this Ame opinion prevails today.
Wor, I do notthink the men realized
qhe importance of this cooperating one
with another. For if they did, so import:
gnta venture would never beso shame

Rev. Wright who was well acquainted

He told or eae that he wanted them
to feel at Home and to come down as
often as they cared to come. The choit
rendered excellent music. The Order
contributed to the church, pastor, choir
and sexton. On Sunday morning Rev.
Wright's subject was ‘The Lord’ takes
pleasure in hts people’ The sermon
was an excellent consdlaifon to christ-
tans The choir sang very sweetly ‘Ye
sainte address the throne.” Rev.
Wright led the hymn. “Lord lead the
wayihe Saviour went,” At night Rev.
Wright read for the lesson Isa. 5:3. The
text was from Exodus 17:5; the subject
was ‘Typical Illusion. He painted a
beautiful picture of the children of Israel
crossing the Ket sea, The lesson that
hedrew for his hearers was, that no
matter how closely your” enemies may
be upon you, God will never let his
children ‘suffer. So impressed were
those who needed prayer that it toot

ed his sermon captivated not only the
‘wandering christians, ahd made them see
the need to come home; but convicted one
sinner who*boldly arose attidst the ser-
‘vices and acknowledge the Savior precious

had a tendency togiraw quitéa large crowd
Out at the night service at which time the
Rey Howell preached an able serman
from the subject, “The Description of

Every member and visitor who heard

Rev, Singleton complimented the inem-

what they bad done under the present

Brown-Childress Rainbow Wedding
Miss Emily, Brown, formerly of Savannah, had one of the prettiest rainbow weddings ever had in Los Angeles, Cal., on Oct. 6th. The church was decked in flowers. The bridal party consisted of eight young ladies dressed in the colors of the rainbow, each carrying a shepherd crook wrapped in the color of their dresses. Little Leonodis Simmons and George Lewis, Jr., acted as flower girl and ring bearer. Miss Mary Brown of Long Beach was maid of honor, she carried a white satin pillar for the bride and groom to kneel upon. The bride came in on her father's arm. Her dress was of cream satin trimmed in gold trimmings and real lace. She carried a white prayer book. Miss Brown received many useful and valuable presents from all parts of the county and one from Scotland. The parents' present was the furnishing of the artistic bungalow, a present from the groom with old mission furniture. The bride was royally entertained by her numerous friends having given her seven different showers, namely linen, book, kitchen, handkerchief, can fruit, miscellaneous showers, and chafing dish party. This young couple has the best wishes of their many Savannah friends for their future happiness.
Eureka Banquet.
The Eureka Aid and Athletic Club, ably assisted by the junior Club and Ladies Branch entertained their friends royally at a banquet given at their rooms on Wednesday evening of this week in honor of their twenty-first anniversary. The table was tastily laid for about 250 who were comfortably seated amidst a bower of flowers, potted plants and lace hangings galore. The concealed orchestra was one of the features of the event. The menu was excellent and served with dispatch. The welcome address by Mr. Jos. J. Brown followed by responses by Prof. L. B. Thompson and Mr. F. J. Hilton with some well rendered selections by the Eureka Quartette and the quaintly pleasing "Eureka yell," enhanced the evening's entertainment. On the whole the affair was a success of which the club should feel proud. In their search for ways to best entertain, they can now indeed exclaim "We have found it."
The Evening Call Ball and Ecte.
The Evening Call Aid and Social Club will give a grand ball at the Masonic Temple on Monday night at which the admission will be 25 cents. Commencing on Tuesday night an enjoyable fete will be had each night until Friday night, the admission to which is 10 cents.

F Lamb: Feeding.
* Corn and the bearded or Scoteb
Warley, when fed with alfalfa, were
about equal in value for mutton pro-
duction. Barley in this test proved
to be a shade the better. Twenty-
seven per cent less alfalfa and twenty-
eight per cont. less grain was required
where barley replaced emmer in a
tation.
. Grade lambs with mutton sires
tmade greater gains, conditions being
similar, than did Ramboulllet lambs,
though a recdrd of food conguription
foz each class was not kept.
"The Western stockman has a feed

meat production, and may be used to

(Wyominz Station.
_Corn Versus Oats as Horse Feed.
‘The Ohto station recently conduct-
ed some experiments to test the wide-
spread belief that oats are superior
ito other grain as a feed for horses.
‘Six mature grade Percheron geldings
iwere fed on a basal ration of clover
and timothy hay, three receiving oats
and three corn as a supplementary
“gation. Estimating corn to be worth
Yorty cents per bushel, oats thirty
ents per bushel, and hay $8 per ton
at the tite the experiments were
made, it was found that the average
cost. of food per bour of work was
3.3 cents for the corn-fed horses and
4.54 cents for those fed oats. The use
‘of corti to the exclusion of other grain
for a period of forty-eight weeks was
not found detrimental to the health
of work horses and they endured hard
work during the hot weather as well
‘ds those receiving oats. When mixed
\(clover and timothy) hay was fed
fo mature gelditgs at general farm
work, ear cof was practically as
‘efficient, pound for pound, as oats. A
‘drop in weight of the corn-fed horses
coincident with the beginning of the
use of shelled corn indicates that ear
corn is to be preferred above shelled
corn for work horses.
of Seedine the Crows.
‘The noted millionaire farmer, David
Rankin, of Missouri, says:
Ihave been asked why I always
feed all my corn, and I always say—
first, I find it profitable to feed it, be-
cause in that way I can get {ull value
out of it, and secondly, I also gain an
immense amount of ‘fertilizer, and
“then to haul my corn to the railroad
to‘ship would be a big job. And,
further, I do .not believe im selling
raw material. You see, I run my
farming business something on thc
plan of the manufacturing industries
ot the country. I want to sell the
‘finished product, and can do so only
by feeding all I raise to stock. If by
doing so, T gain only an average of
‘$1 a heud for the cattle and hozs 1
feed, you see it pays me. But, of
course, I expect to make more than
that.
- I would recommend to every farm:
er t6 feed his crops rather than haul
the grain off the place. My observa.
‘tion is that a great many farmers de
not carry out their work as far as
they can. They sell too much raw
material and not enough finished
‘product. It is true, there are years
that the return from a crop might be
‘greater, but year in and year out, it
will pay you to feed all you raise.

not simply flower beds and borders

A carefally selected assortment gives
& profusion of flowers all the year,
from the very earliest spring days
when somé will open their adventur-
ous blossoms almost out from the
snow, to the time when some will defy
the lighter frosts of the autumn.
‘A rose garden, which may be made
a section of a general flower garden,
is much more pleasing than where
roses are simply scattered here and
there. They are not fitted for pro-
miscuons planting, and always Fe-
spond better to definite treatment.
There are many kinds of waste
places. Perhaps one may be the
stump of an old tree which would be
deautified if a vine were allowed to
amber over it.
- Jlard Milkers,
Dr. David Roberts, the Wisconsin
State Veterinarian, says this trouble
is due to an abnormal contraction of
the sphincter muscles at the feat and
oftentimes reduces thevyalue of what
might have otherwise been a valu-
able cow, as no one wishes to pur-
chase or own what is termed as a
hard milker, but if stock owners
knew how easily this trouble could
be overcome they would never think
of disposing of a hard milker at a
sacrifice, ag is now being done by
many.
The mere fact that a cow is a hard
milker does not indicate that she is
not a good milker, but owing to the
fact that she is a hard milker is of-
tentimes neglected at milking time
by a disgusted milker ‘who leaves a
large quantity of the milk in her
udder that should have been drawn
out.
Stockmn who know how to handle
such cases oftentimes buy valuable
cows owing to the fact that they aro
hard milkers and by the use of a teat
plug and a few treatments for hard
milking, cause them to become splen-
did, easy mllkers, thereby increasing
their value many more times than the
cost of the treatment. A milking
tube should never be used in such
eases, as there is too much danger
of infection and the results are not
as good a3 from the uso of the teat
plus.
Curing Clover Mar.
I have read a good deal in farm
Journsls about curing alfalfa, ete.,
under hay caps, but have uever seen
my method published. While I do
not pretend to say it is perfect, it
gives the best results cf any method
I have ever seen tried, considering
quality of hay and expense.of mak-
ing it.
T start. cltting,just 2s soon as the
clover comes into bloom, and try to
arrange to have it all cut by the time
the heads begin to turn brown. My
haying outfit consists of one mower,
one side delivery rake, one hay loader
and rack wagon, a two-wheel cart at-
tached to hoisting rope 6f harpoon
fork. -
I have a seron-eighths bolt set in
axle of cart, and a ring tled into rope,
and whenever fork full of hay is
dumped, the driver simply throws the
ring off the bolt, and man on the
wagon can have harpoon back and
nearly ready with another fork full by
the time the team gets back. In this
way it takes only a few minutes to
unload a large load of bay, usually
about five forks full.
My way of curing Is as, follows:
Cut what wil make about four or
five loads of hay. After the dew is
off start, say, at 8.30 or ‘9 o'clock.
Throw it into windrows with a side
delivery rake just before the dew falls
in the evening. The next morning
mow until about 11 a. m., and then
take the rake and tip the windrows,
made the day before, ‘upside down,
and immediately after-dinner you can
start hauling in the barn. With two
men, a good hay loader and a boy to
drive team on hay fork, you can have
the four or five loads of cured hay
in the barn in time to rake up wha:
yon cut in the moraing, it you have
but a short distance to haul.
By following the system of cutting
just what you think you an haul 1'
the next day from noon till evening.
yeu will be surprised how much hay
can ,be put into the barn with lttie
expense. My bilt for hired help for
three years has run from tifty to sixty
cents per ton to put hay into the
barn, all work hired except my own.
And you will be surprised at the qual-
ity of the hay. When you throw
down hay for the stock you can smell
it all over the barn. ‘No dust, no
musty smell, and lots of clover Readr
just as red as whea cut. Horses anc
colts will winter on it without an,
grain, and do fine.
In ‘case it rains and your bay !
in windrows do not scatter it out, bu
take your side delivery rake and driv
alongside each windrow just close
enough to kick it up into a flufty
windrow and let the wind blow
through it. Do this about twice, and
your hay will be ready for the barn,
and you can scarcely tell it has been
wet. :

BUILDS IDEAL TOWN IN HER IMAGINATION.
If It Existed ‘Twould Be a “Slightly Elevated Spot Somewhere in New Jersey”
—Only One Church Needed, and Little For Lawyers and Doctors to

* ‘arlington, N. I—Mrs. Mary Patti-

‘Women’s Federated Clubs, has built
the ideal village—in her imagination.
But she Js sure that if such a place ex-
fisted in fact it would be “a slightly
elevated spot somewhere, of course,
in New Jersey.”
This is how Mrs, Pattison pictured
the ideal village in a talk before the
members of the Civic Club of Ar-
ington:
“Let us take an imaginary jour-
ney,” she said, “to a slightly elevated
spot somewhere—ot course in New
Jersey—and bulld an ideal village or
town. Let there be a clean, wide
sweep of greensward shaded with
trees and cut with winding roads, a

To the Brethren of the Missionary

In view of the fact that we are to

deemed it expedient to address this

First. Let it be borne in mind that
we will not be favored with the

ting certificates there will be reduc-
ed rate return tickets on sale Nov-
ember 7, 8 and 9, from all points in
Georgia to Atlanta. Rates of 3 cents
per mile plus 25c, with final mits
to return November 16th, 1909, This
arrangement is cheaper than using
the - certificates. There {s to be-an
automobile exhibition in Atlanta the
same time, and the rate above men-
tioned has been granted on that
Zecount, So when I applied for the
usual certificate plan the Company
advised me that it would make enid

Connection with the programmes,
I send you this letter so that there will!

jot brethren, It will be remembered
that the change was recommended in
the President's annual address, whicn
‘paper was referred to a committee;,
the committee reported favorably and
subsequently the convention adopted
and approved it by her yotes.
Lt’s go up to Atlanta in full force,
and If the change Is not the best, let's
urge that the convention may re:
seinj its action; but, personally, I
think the change from June to No-
yember {s best. ®

the majority of the laymen have some
money that they can give; as well as’
the pastors, - |

who is interested in our work could

In November of egch year a ‘reat

the farmers, 7 |

our convention will have met and
closed at this season—and they could
send by their moderator or represén-
Yative their annual donatfon direct to
the convention, and through that me-
dium, if properly worked up and given
a fair trial before we decide to change
from November back to June, it will
only be a question of time before we}
can lay on the conventional table
from three to five thousand dollars. |
4th, Now, we haye some white
friends who have, and are still stand-
ing by us; and In view of that, let
me, as your secretary, urge that we,
make the keenest sacrifice and raise
for printing and general expenses,
besides education, not less than $500.
There are some outstanding claims
which your secretary and treasurer
are compelled to meet, because all
we have in the way of property
stands subject to claims we made" for
the convention. Should you fail to
provide for us so that we can mect
your creditors, legal steps will be
taken against us immediately.
Now, if you cannot come to Atlan-

‘LAW AND ORDER.
Freemasonry fs the first law and
order league In the world. From the
minutest details In ritual all the way
up through its ethical teachings and
wonderful philosophy of human action
it stands immovable for order, In no
human institution Is greater emphasis
placed upon the ancient customs and
usages than In the ancient craft, Even
to such an extent has this gone that
some look upon this comservatism as
partaking somewhat of fogyism and
fossilism, The landmarks are our
common law. This charter of liberties
may sometimes be in some doubt in
its application and readjustment to
changed conditions of modern times.

and flourished all these years simply
because-men have been privileged to
meet together, break bread and enjoy
themselves? It seems “hardly possi-

has pointed out to man a better way
to live; because it has cuntended for
liberty, justice and equality; because
{t has stood for the elevation of man.

things Masonry stands for, and good
fellonship given as the real yeason
for the existénce of this noble order.
It is pleasant and beneficial to enjoy
the companionship of honorable men,
and: good fellowship and good cheer
have a place {n Masonry, but there
must be something more substantial
and lasting than this to give a frater-
