THROUGHOUT GEORGIA.

Hon. Hewlett A. Hall, chairman OF
the democratic executive committee,
while in Atlanta, discussed more in
detail the rules of the committee
which will govern the. primary of Au.
gust %, and especially the rule In
regard to prorating the vote. When
the next meeting Of the -subcommitl
tee is held, the rules governing the
selection of judges and solicitors will
be again reviewed and made to con.
form as closely as possible to the
practice in the past. Heretofore all
contests for judge and solicitor have
been settled by the aggregate vote of
the circuit affected, this vote being
consolidated and the announcement OF
the result made to the state conven-
ton 1t is expected that this same
plan will, as far as possible, be fol-
lowed under the new approtionment
rule, SO that the action of the con
vention will be purely a formal rati-
hcation OF the result in each judicial
circuit.

CROP OUTLOOK IS BAD.
Too Wet or Too Dry Has Wrought
Untold Damage.

Louisville, Ky.-With cloudbursts
and drouths spotting the Kentucky
map and a great oyerplus of rain
in Tennessee and southern Indiana
the crop situation for nearly two hun
dred miles north, east, south and
west of Louisville has reached an
acute stage. Too wet or too dry
weather has not only cut the product
of the truck gardens and small fruit
farms a full so per cent, but has
wrought untold damage to tne staples
corn, wheat and tobacco. Except
ing corn and-in some favored local.
tiles tonacco, the time for replanting
has nearly passed with no prospects
for recuperation in these crops.
Glover, hay, potatoes. etc. are rot.
ting in the fields Some Kentucky
counties have not been visited by a
good rain since May /. On the other
hand, Northern Kentucky, Tennessee
and southern Indiana we're visited by
general heavy rains for seven success
siYe days which, in some sections,
were veritable cloudbursts. The gen.
eral crop situation in consequence
is the most discouraging in many
years. Traffic delays nave been num-
erous, but trunk lines thus far have
managed to get their trains through
without general tie-ups.
Nashville, Tenn.-Reports have
reached here from north Alabama
of the serious situation in the farm
ing districts on account Of the con-
tinuel rains.
The damage to the cotton crop
especially is causing serious appre-
hension. Some cotton fields will
have to be abandoned on account vi
the rains. Oats nave been cut and
are rotting in the field.
In this county and other sections
of middle Tennessee wheat is sprout-
ing in the shocks.

UNPRECEDENTED SITUATION.
Three Vacancies on Supreme Bench. Democrat
May Be Named.

Washington, D. c.--The death of
the chief justice occurred just at the
time when many important cases were
to be passed upon. Among these we're
the dissolution proceedings under the
Sherman antitrust act against the
Standard Oil company, the tobacco
corporations and the corporation tax
cases, involving the question of the
cOnstitutionality of the law. All had
been set for reargument, the Standard
Oil and the tobacco cases for Nov. IA.
Hearings of these will be postponed
again until the senate confirms the
new chief justice.
The death of the chief justice re-
suits in an almost unprecedented &C.
currence as to vacancies on the
bench. Should Justice Moody accept
the terms of special legislation enact
ed by congress this summer and re-
tire on full pay, three vacancies in
the court will exist when court recon
venes next October Gov. Hughes OF
New York already has been nominal
ed by the president to succeed JUS
tice Brewer. He is expected to take
the oath of Office in October. Tie
way has been prepared for the re-
tirenent of Justice Moody. The
death of the chief justice calls for
the selection of still another mem
Der. With three vacancies, the seri-
ious illness and death of another
member of the court would bring the
work of the court absolutely to a
standstill, six justices constituting a
quorum necessary for the transaction
of business.
Politically, the death. of Chief JUS
tice Fuller will have an important
significance. Chief Justice Fuller was
a lifelong democrat.

TO RAISE GEORGIA COATS
ON A WHOLESALE Plan
Government VIII Establish AMI

OTHER EXPERIMENTS IN BREEDING
Georgia Milch Goat Is Superior Animal. ana
Government Takes steps to Put Industry
on Commercial Basis.

Washington, D. c.--Raising Georgia
goats on a wholesale plan on a plg
tract of land just bought for tnat
purpose in Alexandria county, va, Is
the latest of Uncle Sans deals. Inc
Georgia mich goat has for many years
been known to have no superior anu
the plan of raising them IN larger
quantities is to be tried. Ihls VIII
probably be one of the government
most extensive animal experiment sIa-
tions The promoters OF the plan see
a way by which good, healthy MILK
may be secured from goats at greatly
reduced prices. The tract is to De
used as a dairy farm and by the al
vision of animal husbandry, DOM IN
der the bureau of animal industry
There are some experiments that
the department wants to make ~
breeding dairy stock and there Will
be demonstration of producing milk
and butter under sanitary conditions.
The chief interest that the place Will
have for the farmers who can WISH
it will be that it will show the most
modern and sanitary methods OF han
ding and housing cattle and handing
milk products.
There will be herd of goats kept
there, however, and from this may
develop some things that will be OF
interest to look after. 1t is known
that goats milk is exceptionally val
liable for invalids and infants diet
and is sometimes ordered by physi
clans, and would be ordered oftenei
except for the extreme difficulty OF
getting it.
The department has wanted for sew
eral years to raise a strain OF m11ch
goats and put the industry on a com
mercial basis in this country. Some
years ago large herd of very fine
mich goats was imported from Malta
but Malta fever was imported with
them and at least one death resulted
All the goats finally had to be de
stroyed
This spring arrangement was made
to import a large number of Swiss
goats and some private parties were
arranging to take advantage of the
knowledge of the department expert
and were going to import a CONNER
cial herd at the same time. This
scheme was negatived by an out
break of foot and mouth disease in
Switzerland at that time and the
work had to be abandoned.
The plan now is to bring here 9
strain of mich goats from Georgia
and try to breed up a lot of goats
that will be as satisfactory milk pro
ducers as the imported ones, and al
the same time will have the advan
tage of being acclimated and free
from disease.
Aside from the strain of mich goats
there will be a section devoted tc
chicken raising. Experiments will be
made with trap nests, increasing egg
production, system of feeding and the
like. 1t is also intended to move
the zebroids and their parents from
the experiment station at Bethesda
to the new quarters. The department
is very well pleased with the result
OF the zebra cross.
