on The measure was unanimous, an in
quiry by Mr.. Bell. of Colorado. as to the
precedcnts for such action, led to an
animated discussion.
Mr.. Bell asked what iustication there
was for such "A large account.
Mr.. Grosvenor answered that this fol-
lowed a well-establisked precedent from
tle time of Washington.
Mr. Bell said he would not object. but
he considered the precedent absolutely
wrong and indefensible The widow in
this ease. he said had a nindepondent in

ing TO $2l0,0o0 and understood to include

Mr.. Bell said many widows of Old sol
diers were without pensions. and he re-
ferred to the number of widows who could
be assisted by the amount of this one
pension.
Mr. GrosVenor answered with consider
able feeling He paid tribute to the
beauty of character of Mrs. Mckinley
and expressed astonishment that any
member of congress should view this pen
sion in any venal spirit and should pro-
pose going to the probate court To learn
whether the widow could sustain her

Food for Cattle Than Corn,

Potatoes.

present ana took 4 prominent part in the

chemist of the national agricultural de
partment at Washington

Secretary Wilson on the possibilities Of
cassava cultivation in the southeastern
section. He stressed the fact that OK
periments had shown cassava to he n
cheaper cattle food than corn and more
prolific crop than potatoes. With this
article as a sure crop he said he dId
not see any reason why Georgia aud
Florida should not raise beef and pork
not only for their own consumption, but
for the markets Of the world
He also pointed out that cassava con-
tains about 50 per cent of starch and
asserted that starch works would be
found very profitable in the belt where
cassava could be raised.
DR. Wiley, chemist OF the agricultural
department devoted most of his al
dress t. the sirup industry, explaining
at length why the sirup rather than
the sugar business was the correct thing
to be fOstered in south Georgia and Flor

handsome dividends in the investment in
capital and labor. Dr. Wiley emphasized
the necessity for making a high grade
sirup and having the quality usiform
