Wednesday, October 21, 1903.
Prof 2. z. Rawl, Hers.

Prof 3. H. Rawl, in charge OF the
dairy work of the department of agri-
culture in the Southern States, is max
ing a brief visit to his old home near
Lexington. He is another one Of the
many Lexington boys who have gone
out into the world and made good.
Graduating from Clemson College a
few years ago, he was soon given a
position in the department Of agricul-
ture, and is now one of the strongest
men in the dairy division of the de-
partment. When seen by Dispatch
man he talked Interestingly of the
work of the dairy division in the South.
Among other things, he said: "Several
years ago Congressman Lever, of this
district, realizing the Importance of
live stock to we'll rounded and bal
anced agriculture, and seeing the great
field for profitable investment in this
dairy business, introduced bill appro-
priating $40, 900 to be used in; the en-
ployment of dairy experts, and to be
utilized in teaching Southern dairy
men the most improved and profitable
methods of the business. This bill
was passed and was put in charge
of the organization Of the work. In
the South there is a fine field for
profitable dairying, and the results of
the department. of agriculture, operat-
ing under this appropriation, fully de-
monstrate the fact that the South can
be made an exporter Of dairy products
rather than an importer, as she now
is. Through our experts many un-
profitable dairies have been made to
become paying investments.
'In his annual report to Congress
last year the Secretary Of Agriculture
made the statement that the herds
with which we have dealt have shown
IN increase in monthly profit of $3.50
per head. This, OF course, has meant
millions of dollars of profit to the busi-
ness in the South. We have one ex-
pert in each State in the South and,
while it is not possible for him to reach
each dairyman in each of the States,
yet he is travelling all of the time, and
the plan for him is to visit each Of the
dairies with which he is dealing once
in every month, so that he may be in
more complete touch with the meth
DDS employed. confidently expect
to see the South forge to the front in
the live stock industry and the dairy
end of it to be one of it's most profta-
BILE features"
This is another line of work that the
7th districts Congressman has inaugu-
rated in his brief service. 1t seems
that he has the fundamental and cor
rect idea of what is most needed to
make the South the great agricultural
section which nature seems to have
destined her to be.

to the repeal of the present local op-
tion law, whereby over $4,000 saloons
have been closed the past year, and
sanctioning the notification of the state

that this gap would allow the scour-
ing out of the harbor, but instead the
flow goes the other way.
On the return trip Captain Fries re-
ferred to the public wharves in San
Francisco and said 'You have got to
have public wharves and public ware
house sites on the harbor or you
can't expect to do much business"
Reference also was made to the tre-
mendous amounts of money expended
by municipalities in the development
of facilities in the great harbors of the
world.
On reaching the landing and before
taking the car for Los Angeles, Mayor
Harper, on behalf of himself and the
other guests, thanked Captain Fries
for the highly instructive trip and his
hospitality.
Attorney Edmund Burke, who says
he has no affiliation with the South
ern Pacific or the Banning interests,
but who seems to be displeased with
the city's harbor commission for some
reason he did not disclose, is anxious
to save the city what he says VIII
be an interminable litigation in settling
the question of the titles to tidelands
in San Pedro harbor.
With formidable looking law books
under his arm, Mr.. Burke addressed
the city council yesterday on the ques-
tion of tideland titles and suggested
that much litigation could be saved II
holder of such a title under an old
Spanish grant and the city would take
test case into the federal court.
In the course of his talk Mr.. Burke
said he believed the city could establish
the fact that many of these titles were
faulty and that Los Angeles would
secure the water frontage 1t needed
and should have much more easily and
quickly by such test in the federal
court than in any other way. The city
attorney was instructed to look into
the matter in connection with the har-
hnr. com mission.
