FRAUDS IN FORMULAS.
Agents Selling Farmers Receipts for
worthless Home Made Fertilizers.

Agents Selling Farmers Receipts for
Worthless Home Made Fertilizers.
Atlanta. Ca, Feb. 26.-The large de-
crease in the purchase Of fertilizers in
Georgia this year has led 20 the discovery
that the state is being flooded with cheap
formulas designed to take the place of
commercial fertilizers. Commissioner of
Agriculture Nesbitt is daily in receipt Of
letters from farmers who have been vic
timized, and he has Instituted a thorough
investigation for the purpose Of protect
ing the farmers against this imposition.
The state seems to be over-run with
parties selling these formulas. and a large
number have been sold. 1t appears. judg-
ing by the letters received by the agri-
cultural department. Five-cent cotton
has brought the farmers to a point where
they cannot afford to buy fertilizers for
their crop, and taking advantage of this
condition, they have been induced to buy
cheap formulas by the cheap tongued
agents by which they claimed the farm
ers could make at home for a nominal
cost a fertilizer just as good as that
which they had been buying of man
Ufacturers This doubtless accounts
largely for the falling Off in the purchase
of commercial fertilizers. or course the
formulas being sold are not what they
are claimed to be. The law does not
prohibit the sale of such formulas, but
IL does require that they first be sub
mitted to the commissioner of agricul-
ture for analysis before being placed on
the market. This requirement has not
been complied with. and so the purchasers
90 not know whether the ingredients Of
the formulas contain plant food or not.
They have only the agents word for it
and the cheapness of the chemicals and
other ingredients named, and consequent
ly the cteapness at which the fertilizer
can be made, instead of being a Turing
bait to the farmers. ought to be a warn
ing. Commissioner Nesbitt has just COM
pleted an analysis of one of these formu-
| las sent him by Gwinnett county farmer
who had been taken in, and the result of
the test shows the compound to be almost
! devoid of plant food.

ATLANTA's DAMAGE SUITS.

The Public Meeting Recommends
settlement by Arbitration.
Atlanta. Ga. Feb. 26.-In response to the
call of Mayor King and Presi-
dent Woodson of the cham
Der of commerce. about 400 citi-
zens. largely workingmen and employees of
the Southern Railway Company, assem-
bled in the council chamber to-day to see
what could be done toward securing the
withdrawal of the damage suits instituted
by the property owners against the South
ern Railway Company These suits, which
aggregate over 100000, were originally
against the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia railroad. and We're assumed by
the Southern when it bought that line. 1t
grew out of the location of the East Ten
nessee shops in the midst Cf the property
claimed to be damaged. The meeting was
addressed by Mayor King and President
Woodson, both deploring the fact that
such an enterprise as the Southern pro-
posed to make of the new shops should be
driven out of the city by a food of appar-
emily unjust. damage suits. Similar
speeches were made by a number of other
we'll known citizens.
Lawyer W. p. Hill however. made a
warm protest against public meeting die
tating terms between citizens, who had
already appealed to the courts. Mr.. Hill
declared such step to be anarchy, and he
ridiculed the idea that any injustice could
be done TO a railroad corporation.
During the meeting five of the parties
who have suits pending took the floor and
announced that they would withdraw THEN
suits in the public interest. These an
nouncements We're greeted by applause.
The meeting then adopted resolutions for
the appointment of a committee to settle
the suits by arbitration and secure their
withdrawal so that the Southern may &c
ahead with their new shops.
