pr. J. A. Johnson of Calhoun county in his orchard right and left, for the purpose of exterminating, if possible, the pestiferous San Jose scale.
 Sometime ago the state entomologis. ordered Dr. Johnson either to spray his orchard for the scale, or to destroy the trees. He refused to do either. The mat ter was taken into the courts, with the result that the state entomologist was sustained in his position.
 For some reason, however, the judg- ment of the court was not pressed, but the doctor determined to comply with the decision in part at least, and it is said he has cut down and burned some thing like half of large orchard of sev- eral thousand trees.
 This, however, has not entirely miti- gated the evil. The remainder of Dr. Johnson's orchard, State Entomologist Worsham says, is similarly affected, and fruit growers nearby are complaining. If Dr. Johnson will spray the trees that IS all the state requires, but unless he does that the state entomoligst says he will have to see to the enforcement of the courts order which vii necessitate the destruction of the entire orchard.
 It is the purpose of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce to exploit the Atlantic and Great Western Canal movement at it's annual dinner on the night of February ', and the invited speakers are expected, therefore, to address themselves to the subject of waterways.
 The Atlanta chamber has taken up the matter of developing trade between the middle west and the southeast, and proposes to crystalize a movement which will impel Congress to look with favor upon this canal project by which it is ultimately hoped to connect the Missis- sippi river with the Atlantic ocean. Senator Francis Newlands of Nevada and Congressman Richmond Pearson Hob son have already been secured as speak to the list.
 !, The state department of agriculture has l sold only S6405 worth of fertilizer inspec- l ton tags since January l, as compared l with sales aggregatng $11 ,45S for the same l period of 1907, falling off of $5053. As January and February are the big months for sales of these tags this fact | is considered as bearing out the recent | statement coming from the department | that there is prospect of large decrease in | the sale and use of fertilizers as com pared with last year.
 l It Is stated that the Virginia Carolina
 company, which usually buys inspection ] tags in something like 5000 and SIG, ,00O
 lots, has bought only $25O0 worth this
 year. and other concerns have cut down
 in proportion.

I FAINT UPON ,VERNOR'S PLANS n Watson Has Hand Upon Senatorial Question )GES NOT CARRIED OUT less Is Said To Have Sprung Up tween Governor Smith and Some
 of His Friends Relative
 To senatorship.

tlanta, January A.-(Special. )-Politi-
 gossip has it that the three restrain
 influences upon Gov. Hoke Smith $ material aspirants have been Thomas Watson, the Atlanta Journal with lmes R. Gray at it's head, and Con aressman T. w Hardwick of the Tenth.
 Notwithstanding which it appears that he governors desire to get into the race las not abated one whit, and It is ac- eepted among his close political friends that if he can find way he is going 10 do it.
 Mir Watsons reasons have been gath cred from his publications in which he warned the governor that the people of Georgia would not send him to the Sem ate until he carried out his campaign pledges, some of which remain, as yet, unfulfilled and are awaiting the action of the general assembly this summer.
 MT. Gray's reasons in the Journal were quite similar, though more gently put. He simply suggested that the governor would not think of running for the Sen ate until all the pledges of the Macon platform had been enacted into law.
 What Congressman Hardwicks reasons are, other than these, has not been made apparent.
 It is reported in capitol circles that a coolness has sprung up between the gov ernor and MT. Gray, though, of course, there has been nothing like an open breach, and it is not expected there will be. Just what the first cause of 1t was has not been made apparent, but it is said it was accentuated by the failure of MT. Gray to secure the appointment as receiver of the defunct Neal bank, position which he very much desired. It is well known that the court, presumably at the suggestion which originated with the governor, appointed the Central Bank and Trust corporation to wind up the Neal banks affairs.
 But to get back to the original proposi- ton. A well-known Georgia politician, who stands quite close to the governor, said today:
 T am confident that Governor Smith is anxious to make the race for the Sem ate, and while 1 know nothing definite, it is my belief, from all that have heard that he will do so. You know if a hfdH hhe dONSTiloT oHlltu NdHlS IO uO u thing he generally finds a way of doing it to his own satisfaction and I believe the governor is going to find way m this instance. There is a question as to whether he would get the support for the Senate of the Journal and of MT. Watson, but there is also some question as to whether he needs it.
 From the way things are looking now I would not be surprised to see the Geor- gian become the mouthpiece of the admin istration at no distant date. You cannot tell"

EncrOaching on English

A party of foreigners who are making
a tour of this country called recently at
the state department and were received
by Secretary Root. They had very
limited knowledge of English and the
conversation was conducted mostly in
the sign language Finally the spokes-
man of the party arose, and, with pro-
found bow, said:
'Mr. Secretaire, we will not further
cockroach on your time"
Secretary Root is known in Washing
ton as the polite man. He did not crack
smile, but in diplomatic terms ex-
planned to his visitor that encroach was
the proper English work to explain his
meaning.
"Ah," exclaimed the caller with an
other bow, II understand. Cockroach
am re male and henroach am re fe-
male"
Mr.. Root nodded his head Further
explanation seemed to be useless
