Great Deterioration in Georgia Cot

Atlanta, Ca, July 27.-Georgias 8
cotton crop will this year fall short
of the yield last year $4,000 bales,
according to an estimate issued by
the State department of agriculture
to-day. Commissioner Hudson states
that reports from all sections of the
State show that s per cent. of the
acreage has been abandoned and the
unfavorable weather conditions pre-
vailing for the past month has re-
suited in deterioration in every part
of the cotton belt; of Georgia. His
estimate of the present crop is 62
per cent of that of 1909, which was
approximately 100000 bales.
Corn has also been affected by the
unfavorable weather, necessitating
the abandonment of per cent. of
the acreage.

No Ceremony There.

"What is the meaning of the word
Easter?" said William ]. Kelley, at
the Lambs Club.
No one could answer the question,
says The New York Telegraph, and
Mr.. Kelley went on:
Nobody in New York reads the
Bible now. Ignorance of the Bible
and biblical things is amazing.
''Not long ago, at dinner, I got in
to a biblical argument. When the ar
gument was over young woman
said:
"'I enjoyed that discussion splen-
didly. But do you know, I always
thought that Sodom and Gommorrah
were man and wife,
Another young woman comment
ed:
oh, we'll, suppose they ought
to have been, if they were not.

stantial form of road bed.

The bearing surface of the rail will
doubtless become more circular in
sectional outline to receive the thrust
of the cars when rounding curves,
and the curves themselves must as
sumo the form of parabolas that the
inward learning may be acquired
gradually and as gradually released.
If perfect road bed can be Sc
cured the argument for safety is al
together on the sill of the gyroscope
car. All accidents due to the spread
ing of the two rails in the present
form of railroad must necessarily be
eliminated. The concentration of
weight upon the single rail will mean
greater tractive power; the construc-
tion expenses of the road and bridges
must be greatly reduced; the up
keep much more so, and very sub
stantial lowering of the cost of trans
portation result.

Railroad Shops Burn at Chester.

Chester, July 29.-Fire that start
ed from an unknown origin at 3
O'Clock this morning totally destroyed
the shops of the Carolina & North
western railway, located here. Be-
sides the buildings and contents, two
engines and a passenger coach that
were practically ready for the road
were burned up.
The loss is estimated to reach more
than 100000 and the insurance will
but partially cover the loss.
The shops were located adjoining
the Springstein cotton mills and it
was only through the most heroic ef-
forts on the part of the flremen and
the able assistance of number OF
citizens that the mills were kept from
being consumed, but to their aid came
a brisk wind while the fire was at its
height that carried the heat Of the
burning shops away from the mills.
Much property adjoining the shops
has been more or less damaged by the
fire. The fire will throw about 100
skilled mechanics and many unskilled
workmen out of jobs until the shops
can be rebuilt, which it is stated, will
be done at once.
The fire came at very lnOppOrtune
time for the Carolina & Northwest
ern, as the road needs every bit of the
equipment that it can possibly get
just now to handle its heavy bust
ness.

CORN GROWING
IN THE SOUTH

Atlanta, Ca, July 27.-With 26,-
277,O0O acres planted in corn this
year, being an increase of 1885, 1000
over 1909 and 2,776,000 acres over
1908, the farmers of Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia
Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and
Mississippi are furnishing very SUBJ
stantial proof of the fact that the
South is constantly devoting more at
tention to raising it's own food sup
plies. These figures are from the last
report of the bureau of statistics of
the United States department of ag-
riculture. The acreage in corn for
the three years in these States is
shown in the following table:
States. 1908. 1909. 1910.
vir. 10000 100000 2,142,O0o
n. C. 2,7s7,OO0 2,S9s,OOO 3,O72,Oo0

Ga. 100000 100000 4,532,00o
KY. 100000 3,56s,0OO 3,639,OO0

Total-1sOS, 23,5O1,0O0; 1909,
24,742,0OO; 1910, 26,277,0O0.
The table indicates that each State
.L.oa =, ;norooco ovor 1Q0S in
1909 and an increase over 1903 in
1910. The condition of this years
crop as reported by the department
shows the States of the South leading
the country, Mississippi being first
Alabama second and Georgia third.
This great increase in the acreage
devoted to corn is considered one of
the most hopeful signs in the South
to-day. In letter to the directors
of the Southern Railway Company,
President Finley called particular at
tention to these figures and said:
"The increase in the acreage of
corn, accompanied, as it is, by
quite general adoption Of improved
cultural methods, is one of the most
encouraging features Of Southern
agricultural progress. 1t Is one or
the results of a general movement
throughout the South in the direction
of diversified agriculture-a move
ment which we are endeavoring to
enlarge and assist as far as we can
properly do so.'
AS the farmers of the South in
crease their yield of corn, they will
save enormous sums which they have
been spending in the west for tood
products and will consequently them
selves realize more from cotton and
other market crops. Economic au-
thorities agree in declaring the
American corn crop the basis of the
country's prosperity since in such
large measure the production of
other crops as we'll as the pork sup
ply depends upon it and greater
Weld of corn in the South conse-
ouently means a greater share of
prosperity for this section.

WAY PAVED FUR
 AVIATION MEET
Wrights Reach Agreement to Issue Licenses for For
 eign Machines

NEW YORK, April 9.--The Wright Brothers of Dayton, Ohio, today entered into an agreement with the Aero Club of America for licensing aviators us- ing other machines, which makes sure the holding of the International meet in this country next fall
 Wrights will issue licenses to aviators who do not use Wright machines, and the Aero club will sanction no contests unless licenses are first secured from the Wrights.
 The terms of the agreement insure that the Gordon Bennett trophy will be contested for in America.
 The Aero club has an option on a tract on Long Island, four miles long and about mile wlde, between Garden City and Hicksville, for a year s lease, as field for the international meet. The site will not be decided upon defin- itely for several months, as clubs in Washington and St. Louis are in the field and other cities may enter. The chances of Washington are lessened by the death of Thomas R. Walsh, who had promised to subscribe $l00,000 if the meet was held there
