In the organization Is at fever heat

Law Fixes Primary Dates.

Chairman @, l. Lomax OF the state
democratic committee is OF the opin-
ion that a meeting OF that committee
Is not necessary until some time 10
May. 1t Is held that the state law
likes, practically, the dates for the
primary elections, the committee
having only to deal with the minor
details. The code says the first pri-
mary shall not be held earlier than
the drst OF August, and the second
primary not earlier than the twentieth
OF August or later than the FIRST OF
September. These dates are provided
for In Section 300 OF the primary
election laws.

IL Is hardly likely that all Of these
%, 600, 900 acres In the South are sus-
ceptihle to profitable agriculture.
Thousands OF them are on the Appa.
lachian heights, 10 which, although
farming Is successfully followed in
vast tracts In the aggregate, 10 other
parts natural dIiiicultIes forbid the
undertaking. But there are millions
OF acres, especially 10 the yellow pine
regions, which experience with por.
lions Of them has demonstrated to be
ready TO yield plentiful harvests under
proper cultivation. Georgia. Missis.
sippi, Louisiana, Texas, and other
states bear testimony to that fact.
Comparative cheapness OF these
lands and their productivity 10 a eli
mate which permits the growing OF
three crops a year have not, perhaps,
led to the demand for them that
might naturally be expected, for the
reason that the removal OF stumps
from them has been regarded as an
expensive undertaking. But the In.
creasing demonstration OF their
utility has been accompanied by i'm
provement 10 methods for removal OF
the stumps economically, II being pos
siole now to use machine that will
handle them at cost OF about els or
go an acre, The mechanical stump
puller, however, usually treats the
stump az mere obstructive waste to
be destroyed as expeditiously as pos
sible. But the expense Of removal,
whether by the stump-puller, or by
dynamiting, o course pursued by some
men, may be reduced considerably
With the perfectiDg OF devices for the
utilization Of the stumps 10 the deri.
walton Of important products. Ex-
perimentation has already progressed
In tho development OF processes for
obtaining these products.
1t Is estimated that the annual
waste 10 numbering operations In this
country amounts to about 1900. 600
cords, from which, by means OF steam

could be derived. Perhaps one. fourth
OF that annual waste Is In pine

 dence COmpany's Work

For the purpose of attending a meeting of the Providence oil and Gas company directors today, L. H. Baker, president of the Texas Central railroad, will ar rive this morning. He will be here sev- eral days looking into oil and gas af- fairs before returning to his home in Texas. It is generally understood that MT.

LATADY HOME IS

 the Ground Floor

Fire broke out In the residence of Albert Latady, 3015 Highland avenue, yesterday morning at s:45 o'clock dam aging the dwelling and contents about s4oo0. large part of the damage was caused by water on the first floor
 The fire is supposed to have caught from a spark on the roof and had ob- tained good headway before the fire department arrived. Stations Nos. 8. and answered the call and after 20 minutes of hard work eXtingaished the fire.
 The entire roof of the building was burned off and tie contents of the up per floor badly damaged Extensive damage was done on the lower floor to the furniture by water.
 The family escaped from the burning building easily, although the little daughter of Mr. Latady was ill and had to be carried out. MT. and Mrs. Latady, Miss Margaret Latady. and two young CT children were in the home at the time of the fire.
 It was thought for time that the fire had destroyed the family silver and Jewels and efforts were made to rescue the goods. It was afterward discov- cred that they were untouched by the flames.
 HIS IS iHt III Sl Sci iOuS III ic III thS last two weeks at which a member of the fire department was not injured The iremen hope that the "hoodoo' that has ben lowering over them for the past two weeks has at last lifted
 The injured members of the depart ment are doing nicely and 1t is no: thought that any of the injuries will prove serious. Bremen Brent, whc was injured by being thrown from a truck at Avondale last week, Is rest ing easily at his residence in Avon dale.
