fact they were spending it for that
which fed them not.
Prof. Kober dwelt particularly on
the tomato. He pointed to the la
borers, particularly Italians, who
lived chiefly on canned tomatoes and
canned fish. He thought the gov
eminent ought to teach them better.
The women even wanted to go
further. They suggested that the
government ought to show it's wards
just how many ounces of this, that
and the other food they ought to
eat 1t ought to prevent over eating
and promiscous eating.
Experiment stations with chemists
in charge ought to be established to
test various foodstuffs and tabulate
the results, they thought.
Nothing was said about expert
mental kitchens and dining rooms
equipped with delicate scales for
weighing food before eating.
Members of the committee, most
of whom are farmers with fine large
appetites, looked wise during the adj
dresses and said nothing. One ven
tured afterwards that his stomach
was his best guide.
And, anyhow. he is very fond of
tomatoes.

LEE TO FURNISH THE SENATOR.
Controversy Between Lee and Turner
Counties Is Settled.


1T is believed that the condition
which existed in the Tenth senatorial
district up to Friday was without
precedent in the history of the state.
Under the rotation plan of nomi-
mating the senator it is Lee county's
time to name the seantor. Hon. j..
P. Galloway of Leesburg, who rep
resented his county in the house for
term, is out for the senate, and has
no opposition in his own county.
But in Turner county, which was
placed in the Tenth district when 1t
was created a couple of years ago,
Mr. Lott Warren is also an avowed
candidate for the senate. This grows
out of the refusal of Turner county
to recognize the "unwritten law of
senatorial rotation.
The district executive committee
is composed of the chairman of the
several committees, and they met
in Albany Friday in response to a
call issued by Chairman Mann, and
in a session of two hours thorough
ly threshed out the conflict between
Lee and Turner counties. 1t was
finally ordered, all parties agreed,
that Lee shall nominate the senator
this year, Turner naming the next,
and being followed in turn by Dough
erty and Worth.

PARKS ANNUAL RE-
PORT is INTERESTING.
Receipts During the Year Nearly $5,-
100000 Owes Bonded Indebt-
edness of S7,OOO,OOO. The
Banks of Georgia.
Banks of Georgia.

BdIlkS Oh OcOESIa'
Hon. r. E. Park, treasurer of the
state of Georgia, has issued his an
nual report, copy of which has been
received by The News.
1t shows that the bonded indebt-
edness of Georgia is $7,131,500. OF
this amount $4,000 is paid each
year. Back of this bonded indebt-
edness is the Western & Atlantic
railroad, which if sold would pay
the bonded indebtedness, and then
have more than three million dollars
left. But we are not in favor of
selling the w. & A.
The report shows that there was
in the treasury January /, 1907,
$8O4,444.03. The receipts during
the year were $4,813,764.03. The
disbursements during che same pc
riod were $4,797,469.59, leaving a
balance in the treasury of $780,
74O,17, or net gain of $16,259.24
during the year 1907.
The report shows that on January
/, 1900, there were 40 chartered
state banks in Georgia, with CAPT
tai of $9,315,127.50 and deposits of
$23, ,161.77.
In 1907 there were AS chartered
banks, with a capital stock of ST.
536,679.65, and deposits amounting
to $48,707,793.02.
There are 81 national banks, with
I capital of $8,95S,500 and deposits
amounting to $26,774.360.
The report discloses the fact that
5here are outstanding six state of
Georgia bonds. which have matured
and upon which no interest is ac-
cruing, which have never been pre-
sented for payment.
Two of these bonds, one for $1,000
and another for $500, fell due in
July, 1886, twenty-five years ago;
mother for $1,000 fell due January
1, 1889, nineteen years ago; another
for $1,000 in 1896, and two others,
$1,000 each in 1905. There is $5,-
500 in the state treasury held for
the payment of these bonds whenever
they are presented, and for that pur-
pose it will be held indefinitely, or
until the bonds turn up.
Possibly the bonds matured in
1906 will be heard from later, but
there is little likelihood that the
others will ever be presented for pay
ment The chances are they were
lost or destroyed in some fire, but the
states obligation is outstanding and
it is ready to meet it.
However, since Treasurer Park
has been in Office a man brought in
$1,000 bond that had matured
twelve years before, and got the
money He told the treasurer at the
time that it had been hidden away
in an old trunk and he had just come
across it.
Will other old trunks disclose the
matured Georgia bonds now missing
of will the money held for their pay
ment be tied up perhaps for all time?
