then thought the trouble was ended
but to my surprise few days later my
attention was brought to a notice from,
the Cumberland nurseries to one OF
their customers at Columbus, Ga, that
large shipment of trees from these
nurseries would be delivered at thai
place on Dec. 9th.
The trees arrived late in the evening
OF the date mentioned and the following
day being Sunday were held over unit

made. I found that the trees had beer
shipped by Mr.. w Y. O. Grant of %
lumbia, Tenn, under the certificate
issued to aim by the Tennessee inspeo.
tor and under the Georgia tags issued
by the board. The trees were alleged
to have been grown by Mr.. Grant ant
shipped for Mr.. Newson to fill the lat.
ter's order at Columbus.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
shipment, having been properly labeled
was apparently made in full compliance
with the law the trees, upon examina
ton, proved to be badly infested with the
San Jose scale. I, therefore, burned the
entire lot
The infestation in this case was So
pronounced that representative of The
Cumberland Nurseries, who had come
down from Nashville, Tenn, to witness
the investigation, offered no objection to
the destruction of the trees. Specimens
of this lot were also submitted to DR..
Howard, who again verified my determi.
nation of the species.
Immediately Cancelled the tags issued
to Mr.. Grant and ordered the return of
all that had not been used, but having
no means of enforcing the order the tags
have not yet been returned.
MIR. Newson was again notified not to
make further shipments into Georgia,
either i'll his own name or through the
agency of Mr.. w. Y. O. Grant of Co.
lumbia, Tenn. He persisted, however,
aud another shipment was made to
WoodstUUK, Ga, through the same
agency as was used in the Columbus
shipment. On Dec. Fl l examined the
trees before they were taken from the
car and finding them infested with the
San Jose Scale I performed the unpleas
ant duty of burning them.

Der of trees destroyed, but was informed
by the agent Of the nurseries that there
were 10000 trees in the Woodstock ship
ment apd there were perhaps several
thousand trees in each of the other lots.
The San Jose scale infestation was
most pronounced on pears, plums,
peaches and English walnuts

THE MARKET FOR POULTRY.
We often near the complaint that
there is 40 market. Yet the farmers of
Tennessee and other states, even as far
north Jf US rs MARYLAND, raise poultry
and eggs, and after having the express
companies for Shipping them. make fair
profits i'll Georgia markets II there oc.
ours at any time an over production in
Georgia why cannot our farmers find a
market in the large winter hotels of
Florida, which now get these supplies
from Baltimore?
One trouble with our Georgia poultry
is that while many farmers recognize
the difference between a Jersey and
q scrub COW for milk. or a Hereford and
the common stock for beef. thew seem to
think that any thing will do for poultry.
Hence the short weight chickens and
small eggs which cannot compete with
petter articles from other states.

Rowe win Repay the County.

GRINNELL Ia. Jan. 13.-tS3ecial) -
Word comes from the relatives OF Chester
Rowe. the former treasurer of Poweshek
county. who has just been released from
Belem prison in Mexico, that he will re-
pay all the money that he took with him
to Mexico. Rowes case Is one of the most
interesting OIL record and involved points
OF international controversy. After lcav-
ing Poweshiek county, Rowe and his
brother established themselves in Mexico.
where they entered in business. Chester
acquired real estate and became a Mexican
citizen. Soon a startling revelation as
to their character came in the form OF a
request to the Mexican government for
their extradition.
The Mexican government took the case
under advisement Mexico had had reason
TO complain of its treatment by the United
States Many OF its criminals were re-
fused under the cover of the plea of "po-
litical offenses." lnasmuch as Chester
Rowe had become Mexican citizen they
refused to deliver him TO the United States
authorities. but tried him on the charge
OF bringing embezzled funds into that coun-
try. He was found guilty and sentenced
to sly years Imprisonment and fined 81 900.
owing to good behavior he has been re-
leased long before the expiration of his
term. Through Rowe's defalcation the
county lost about $4,000. part of which
has been repaid by Rowcs bondsmen.

Tho revival services at the Broadway
Methodist church are still in progress and
attracting largo congregations. The pas
tor, Rev. Myron c. Waddell. in speaking
yesterday on cvangelistic revival services,
said:
Some dccry revival effort. This has al
ways been So Not one OF the Jewish
prophets who endeavored to get the people
back to their first love escaped death or
persecution. These men were sent of God
Their efforts were all evangelistic and
every prophet was sent to call the people
to repentance. Taking into consideration
the fact that there are only three books
in the bible-Ruth, Esther and the Song of
Solomon-that are not filled either with
records of actual revivals or direct teach
ing. revealing the necessity OF calling the
people back to God. so that the first works
may be done again, anyone who talks
against revivals and revival effort simply
because mistakes are made uncovers his
own colossal ignorance OF the scriptures,
and OF course not knowing the scriptures
It Is only natural that he should err in
judgment"
Rev Mr.. Waddell is being assisted in tho
revival services by Evangelists Smith aud
Robinson. Services will be held throughout
the week every evening at 1880 o'clock cx-
cept Saturday.

ME Wltherell OF Clarion saved the odd

daughter of the treasurer of the lodge, who
keeps the money at his house. Not long
ago MIR. Witherel. with his wife. went to a
meeting of the Rebekah lodge, leaving his
daughter alone in the house. Soon after
there was a knock at the door, which the
young lady answered and found herself con
frontel by a young man who presented an
order signed by G.. G.. Smith, head of the
lodge at Clarion, and reading to the effect
that the bearer, A. II. Hargrave. the vener-
able counsel OF the state, should be given
all the money OF the lodge then in the pos
session of the treasurer
Miss Witherell was well enough versed in
the rules of the order to know that there
was no such office as venerable counsel and
this fact aroused her suspicious. She
realized that she was confronted by a bold
and daring robber and did some hard and
consecutive thinking in very few minutes.
Stepping to a side door she called to her
father that "A note awaited him inside and
then rang up Mr. Smith over the telephone.
The robber perceived that his game was up
and with a slight apology hurriedly left the
house.
Mr.. Smith Immediately telephoned that he
had issued no order and the matter was put
in the hands of the police as quickly as pos
sible but not quickly enough to catch the
daring robber. who had disappeared. The
members of the lodge are now congratulate
ing themselves that good fortune and girls
| pluck have saved them a heavy financial
