Important Conference Will Be
Convened for Two Days
Session Dec. 16

MACON. Ga, Dec. 13.--An agricul-
tural conference will be held at the au-
ditorium in Macon, December 16 and II.
The first session will be called to order
at p. m. on the 10th. The purpose
of this meeting is to bring together rep
resentatives of every interest identified
or affiliated with the agricultural de-
velopment of Georgia. 1t is quite evil
dent that there are many problems
which may properly engage the atten-
ton fsuch conference, and there Is
every reason to believe that a meet
ing of this character may result in cry
stallizing public opinion along certain
well defined lines, and thus enable the
inauguration of a campaign for the inn
provement of our educational facilities
as they pertain to agriculture and the
more geenral dissemination of essential
practice among the people of the state.
knowledge concerning advanced farm
practice among the people of the state
In order that this movement may ac-
complish something definite, it will be
necessary for the conference to discuss
ways and means of financing the plans
it may decide upon as most likely to
give immediate results. 1t is desira-
BILE, therefore. that every interest be
represented at this gathering, and lend
support to a movement which has been
inaugurated for the purpose of enabling
the people of the state to devise plans
conserving and developing its agricul-
tural interests.

STANDARD OIL is
LIABLE TO STATE TAX


JACKSON, Miss, Dec. BIN effect
an opinion handed down today by the
supreme court is to hold that the
Standard Oil company Is liable to a
state privilege tax.
The corporation has contended that
as the legislature had passed law
exempting a certain class from liabil-
ty for privilege tax, as in the case OF
Confederate pensioners in whose favor
a property and business limitation is
fixed, the whole law was unconstitu-
tional.
The decision today was in the case
of Writ Adams, state revenue agent
against the Standard Oil company
which was tried before a special judge
in the circuit court of Kinds county
several months ago, with jury on an
agreed state Of facts, the finding be-
ing in favor of the corporation.
