minded men are ready to yell for the other fellows as we'll as for them selves This earnest enthusiasm or college spirit has it's most demonstrat- i've outlet on the occasion of Blowout Night" one night given over entirely to a wholesome and carefully directed exhibition of college spirit. Songs are given, yells are exchanged, and stunts are performed such as can be con" ceived only by college men.
 This conference Is a growth of the Intercollegiate movement of Young Mems Christian Associations in this country which started at the suggest ion of MT. William r. Dodge, of New York, who had a son interested In the Christian work of Princeton Universi- ty.

partial report from Beat !ndicat- ed a reduction of IS per cent in cotton acreage and 25 per cent In commercial fertilizer.
 G. H. Shackleford had no tabulated report from Beat 1G. He made vcr- bal report, however, to the enect mat in one section of the beat, inhabited by negro farmers, there had been little or no reduction in acreage but among the white farmers there had been h ieduC- ton of about 20 per cent. He exhlpi:- ed a letter received from G. w. Boyd, stating that a reduction was being made in his part of the Beat ard that the sale of fertilizer tags by the Com missioner of Agriculture had no mean ing as in the bottom of a meal sack he had discovered five tags of Missis- sippi fertilizer company. The tags were exhibited and the incident caused considerable merriment among the farmers.
 The report from Beat 12 indicated that there had been a reduction in acreage of between 15 and 20 per cent fin one part of the beat, but in another part there had been little or no reduc- tion.
 A partial report from Beat IT. ind.- cated that there had Been a reduction of 23 IA per cent in cotton acreage and an increase of IT per cert in fertl- llZer tonnage, but much or me IeIll~ lizer is being used on corn.
 A complete report was made from Beat IS, indicating a reduction Of 70 per cent in cotton acreage, 50 per cent reduction in fertilizec and 25 per cent increase Tn corn acreage. rms report was loudly applauded.
 organizer Williams reported from Beats 19, 20 and 21. In Beat 19, there had been a reduction of 29 per cent in cotton acreage and fertilizer and 40 per cent increase in corn acreage. In Reat 20, largely populated by negro farmers. there had been a reduction or 15.8 per cent in cotton acreage, 22 per cent in fertilizer and an increase or Al per cent in corn acreage.

 Addressed by MT. Lawson.
 w. II. Lawson addressed the meeting and argued that the work would be unavailing if the reports were not accurate. He said that many of the reports were made on what somebody had said about somebody's else acreage, etc, and he argued tIl'tV h,l nD man in the country knew how much cotton his neighbor had planted. To get an accurate report. he suggested that the number of blows on every plantation be ascertained and by hgur- ing the number of acres to the PlUw a much more accurate table could De secured.
 This suggestion was opposed oy A H. Eubanks. He said that some tarM- CTS used one blow to thirty acres whlle some others used a blow to htteen acres. He also wanted accuracy pu, thought that the way to get at Il would be by seeing personally every farmer in the county.
 J. NJ. Stucky thought that if the AS, sociation waited until every farmer was seen, the entire crop would DC nicked before the table could be made One or two men could be found every now and then, he said, who are wiling to work for the good of the community

A NOTABLE GATHERING
SOUTHERN STUDENT CONFERENCE
 AT ASHEVILLE.
College Men of This Section Will As- sembIe in tthe Land of the Sky" June I7-2S in Twelfth Annual
 Session.

Atlanta. Ga, May 6.-(Special.)- The most notable gathering of the col lege men of the South for the entire year will be the Southern Student Con ference. which assemblies at Asheville, N. C., in the Land of the Sky" from June 17th to the 2Sth. inclusive. This conference is an assemblage of dele gates from the student Young Mems Christian Associations of the colleges and universities of the Southland. ana will number in its attendance many prominent and well-known college men, The delegates chosen represent every phase of college activity. as the leaders of the Christian life at most of the institutions of learning are rep resentative men who take interest in literary, athletic and social life In addition to the strong personel of col lege students, there will be prominent members of the faculties of many of
 the largest institutions, who will be
 in attendance to take part in the pro-
 gram and to participate In the confer
 ence discussions.
 This will be the twelfth annual ses-
 sion of the Southern Student Confer
 ence held in and near Asheville under
 the direction of the International Com
 mittee of Young Mems Christian As sociations of America, the attendance and interest having grown from year to year until 1t is confidently expected that this years attendance will run between 300 and $50. This conference
 is one of seven similar student gather ings held in the United States every wear. all of which are planned and di- rected after the example of the famous
 Northfield Conference, instituted and fostered by the great Dwight L. Moo | dy.
 Another assembly of special interest will be that of the Young Woman's | Christian Associations, whose dele gates from the South. both city and | college, meet in conference at the Nor mai and Collegiate Institute at Ashe- vile. June 10th to 18th. The two con fercnces coming together make 1t pos
 sible to have present the most eminent | speakers to college students In Ameri- | ca and many speakers well known in all parts of the Christian world.
 The purpose of these gatherings Is to deepen the Christian life in the insti- l tutions represented. and the discus | s!ons in conference fashion will in- 1 clude the problems in literary athletic | and social as well as religious life.
 The general locality selected Is ideal and abounds in attractive mountain | scenery. The Sapphire country. in tho | Land of the sky" is regarded as one l of the most delightful sections Of the 1 south. and It's location alone would make the conference trip altogether worth while.
 l A strong program of speakers has
 been secured for both conferences. The

but these kind of people are few and far between.
 The Lawson suggestion was adopted.
 MT Houghton suggested that another way to get at the cotton acreage woulu be to procure q list from Tax Asses sor Eubanks of the number of mules being used by farmers. This sugges- tion was adopted,
 W. T. M. Rushing in an earnest speech said that if the Beat Committee has funds, each beat could employ a man to canvass the beat and ma out the number of acres being planted in cotton. He suggested that each beat raise money for that purpose.
 Mir Houghton offered as a substitute that the President, Secretary and Ex- ecutive Committee be empowered to employ a man to go into each beat and secure this information. After considerable discussion, the substitute was adopted.
 The report of Treasurer A. J. Jones was read, showing a balance on hand of $29O.4O.
 Motion as to MT. Conner.
 A resolution was introduced by Sec retary Gay as follows:
 Be 1t resolved by the Montgomery County Cotton Growers Association that MT. B. B. Conner, president of the Alabama Railroad Commission be com mended for his action in endeavoring to have freight rates reduced Mir. Houghton advised the Associa- ton to go slow. He said that the reso- lution was badly worded in the first place. It is not the idea of MT. Conner or should not be, he said. to have all rates reduced. Some rates should be adjusted The adoption of the reso- lution would have political signih- canoe and he thought the Association | would do well to keep out of politics He moved that the matter be referred | to q committee.
 The motion was adopted and Messrs ' Houghton R. Edson and Gay were ap- | pointed on the committee.
 The Association adjourned at 2:3C l o'clock.

FARMERS HEAR BEAT REPORTS County Cotton Growers Have a Meeting. REDUCTION IS URGED Resolution Commenting B. B. Conner is Sidetracked. Movement Launched to secure More Comprehensive Statements as
 to Cotton Planting in Mont
 gOmery County.

The Montgomery County Cotton Czrowers' Association met yesterday Tn the Montgomery County court mousse and heard repofts from various beats indicating reduction of cotton acreage and use of commercial fertilizers and an increase in the acreage or colH aliA other products.
 An amusing feature of the meeting was the exhibition of several fertilizer tags. received by a members of the As sociatlon in a sack of meal.
 srThat's what our friends, the ferti- lizer people. are doing to us," explained the speaker.
 mending B. B. Conner, President Of +he Alabama Railroad Commission, in his efforts to have freight rates re- duced. but after a cautious speech by Nj. B. Houghton, the resolution was referred to a special committee.
 The meeting was called to order at ii o'clock by President w. H. Vaughn :. About thirty members were present. Secretary Ed. Gay for NJ. B Tough ton. Chairman of the Committee on Membership, reported that since the last meeting fifty or sixty members had been added to the list and over s1OO had been collected.
 Reports from the Beats.
 orpanizer N. B. Williams reported that since the last meeting he had or ganized Beats 19. 20 and 21. and would make a report of the work of those beats later in the meeting.
 President Vaughn called for reports from various beats. In many instances only partial reports could be made and in some cases their accuracy could not be vouched for. In these cases, on motion of w. H. Lawson, the reports were referred back to the beat com mittees for further investigation:
 The report from Beat indicated that there had been practically no re- duction in cotton acreage or in the usC of commercial fertilizer.
 A martial report from Beat inGicat- oa that there had been about a pel cent reduction in acreage and a like reduction in the use of commercial fertilizers.

AN EVIL.

1t is not habit of the public to look with sympa-
thy upon items of railroad expense, or to concern
itself in any way whatsoever for the reduction of
the same.
In fact, to many, railroad is fair game. and no
chance to mulct it in damages, however tr1ing
grounds, is allowed to escape. In this enter
prise the plaintiff is almost invariably aided and alb
cited by the petty jury, imposing upon the road
great expense for litigation, frequently very
trivial grounds, and as a matter of speculation
the part of the party suing and his attorney.
1t is often merely barratry, and in the Long run
doubtless works back to the harm ot.t.ie general
pabIc by forcing the roads adopt excessive
freight in order offset the expense of these
continual damage suits
