What is known as the "double
damage" law which has been in
force in this state for several years,
is soon to be tested in the U. s.
supreme court. This law provides
that where damage is done by a
fire set by q Locomotive or employ
es of railroad company, and
settlement for such damages is not
made within sixty days after notice
has been filed with an agent of the
company, or in case the amount
of damage is disputed, and the a.
mount when taken into court is ad'
Indicated at more than the com.
pany offered to pay, then the com
pany shall be liable for double the
amount of damages. The supreme
court of the state has upheld th'
law, but an appeal has been taker
to the federal supreme court or
the ground that it is in violation o
the 14th amendment to the fedora
constitution.

Is EXPERIMENTING.
Mr.. BilloW- is anxious to secure
specimens of the Sea Island cotton
grown in South Georgia for expert
mentation, and he writes of the
new cotton they are growing down
there He says that Italian scient-
ist, DR.. Thomatis has produced a
new variety known as "CaraVonica"
by hybridizing two varieties-one
from Mexico and the other from
the tributaries of the Amazon.
This cotton grows Is to 80 feet
high and is a most prolific strain,
and what is unusual in these tree
varieties the staple is long and
silky The bolls are 7 inches long
and 5 s inches in diameter. The
seed are free of lint and produces
1900 to 1900 pounds of lint per
acre, Or 2 10 to 3 bales. He de-
clares also that the ratio of lint is
48 to 62 per cent to seed cotton.
Most varieties grown in this state
run about 80 1-3 per cent.
Mr.. Biliow stated that he had
mailed some of the seed and lint to
the commissioner of agriculture,
and when it arrives it will be turn
ed over to EntOmologist Worsham
for experimentation.
