crops, in other words there is so per
cent of the land standing idle all the
time, giving the farmer no returns for
his money.
The land is not good for raising
crops, but it will raise cattle all right
1t won't grow cotton and corn and
vegetables, but it will grow grazing
grass, and if there were cattle put on
it it would get better and better from
year to year. 1t would be naturally
fertilized and would in time make the
land.
OF course, most of the grazing land
of Georgia now will not produce a
good grade of cattle, because for years
practically ever since the history of
the state begun, it has been used for
the pasturage of tick-infested cattle
1t is infested with the ticks aud
quickly ruins any healthy cattle that
is put on it. For this reason the Geor-
gia farmer has become discouraged
with cattle raising"

CATTLE TICK MAY Be
EASILY DIFFERENTIATED
So Declares DR.. NighbGrt, the
Federal Cattle Expert

Macon, August 1S.-On the eXtermi-
nation of the cattle tick and the adop-
ton of cattle raising as one of the
industries of the state, depends the
future of the agricultural interests Of
Georgia, according to DR.. E. NJ Nigh
bert, of Atlanta, inspector in charge
of cattle tick eradication of the bu-
reau of animal industry, Unit3d States
Department of Agriculture.
DR.. Nighbert passed through Macon
yesterday on his way to Atlanta from
Eatonton, where he has been engaged
the meeting of the farmers institute,
and while in the city he discussed the
ever-increasing trouble with the cot
ton crop, the pests that are already
present, the impending invasion of the
boil weevil and the importance of the
farmers devoting more attention to the
cattle industry. In this connection DR..
Nighbert said:
"The need for the farmer to take
up cattle raising as sort of substi-
tute for cotton raising is obvious.
Very little study of things as they
stand now will convince you that. n
the first place we now have the lit
tie red spider the cotton worm and
the cotton caterpillar to fight They
are all peril and every year they
cut down the crop in some section.
But the boil Weevil, the greatest wand
al of them all, is surely on his way
to Georgia, and he will cut down the
average of the crop, which is now not
too high.
Another fact that makes absolute
dependence on the cotton crop danger
Gus is that while we in Georgia, and
in fact all of the cotton states, are
ytarly using larger and larger quan-
titles of commercial fertilizer we are
producing smaller cotton crops. And
fertilizer is becoming more expensive,
too.
Now consider these figures, please.
1t is established by statistics that Of
all the land in the state there is just
40 per cent in use for the raising Of

effect on the market. Weather re-
ports were not very favorable as tit
tie rain was noted in Texas and tenn
peratures continued fairly high every

tendency and at the end of the first
half hour of business was to :

Reports of better demand !cr
spot cotton and the announcement Of
the sale of line of about 1900 bates
to Eastern mills, strengthened the
market and toward the middle of the
morning caused it to take on an ad-
vancing tendency. Buying for strong
bulish interests was in evidence and
it was said that it was based on rum
ors from England that another con-
ference between labor leaders and gov
eminent officials was on. This was not

COTTON MARKETS

New York, Aug. 1S.-The cotton
market opened today at an advance OF
4 points to a decline of points. A
private crop report making the condi-
ton SO per cent against 90.5 at the
end of July was considered moderate
ly bullish, but its influence was offset
by the unfavorable English labor situ-
alton, the increasing new crop move
ment and the expectations that detail
weather reports today would show the
rains privately reported in Texas yes
terday.
Some of the leading trade interests
seemed to be giving the market SUD-
port, but there was a good deal OF
scattered selling and prices eased off
to net decline of about and 7
points during the early trading.
The market was quiet during the

THANKSGIVING CONTROVERSY

A question of great Importance has

course will have the last say in the
matter, but until he renders his de-
cision, the world will wait in breath
less suspense, unable to proceed with
its plans for celebrating Thanksgiv-
ing dav. The Mcneil calendar for
1911 has November % marked off as
the Thanksgiving holiday. That is the
fourth Thursday in the month. 1t is
true that Thanksgiving is usually the
fourth Thursday for usually there are
only four THURSDAYS: but it happens
that this year there are five Thurs
days. Those who are especially fond
Of turkey and regard themselves as
fans. say that the GUS
tom is for the president to issue his
proclamation for the last Thursday;
that the fact of its being the fourth
