DAYS DOING At
STATE CAPITAL
HARRIS TO BE CHAIRMAN OF
STATE CONVENTION OTHER
ATLANTA NEWS.

Atlanta, Aug. 26.-Thus far no op-
position has developed from any
source to the election of Senator w. J.
Harris of Cedartown as permanent
chairman of the state convention
which opens at Macon Wednesday,
and present predictions here are
that he will be the unanimous choice
Of the body.
There is a two-fold significance in
the movement started last week to put
Senator Harris in the chair at the
convention. In the first place Sena-
tor Harris has always been the strong
personal and political friend of John
M. Slaton, governor-e elect, who will
be formally declared the choice of
Georgia Democracy at this convention.
In the second place, Senator Harris
was the original Woodrow Wilson
leader in Georgia, and started in this
state the movement for the man who
is now the Democratic presidential
nominee, the man whom the conven-
ton will endorse for president and
whom all loyal Georgia Democrats will
support.
Senator Harris is particularly anx-
ious, by the way, that Georgia, the
former home of Governor Wilson and
the birthplace of Mrs. Wilson, should
poll a record breaking Democratic
vote in November.

Stripes Instead of Uniform.

Atlanta, Aug. 26.-R. P. Ausbrooks
this morning changed the red uniform
of the American Salvation Army for
a suit of convict stripes at the city
stockade. Instead of his tambourine,
he now carries clanking chains.
Ausbrook got drunk on near-beer
and then entered the red light district,
where he solicited aims. His conduct
was so wild that the police were
called. He was hailed into recorders
court and assessed a fine he could not
pay. hence the changing alternative.
The American Salvation Army has
had it's troubles in Atlanta before. II
has nothing to do with the Salvation
Army of which the late General Boom
was head. In fact the American Sal
walton Army has been pushed by IN
functions to prevent it from wearing
uniforms similar to the Salvation
Army. and to prohibit it from Solicit
ing charity in that name. But never
before has one of its members faced
an tual sentence in the stockade.

has been embodying the results in
pamphlets seldom seen and still more
rarely read by the actual tillers of the
soil. Now, instead of a pamphlet
worded in abstruse terms that the
farmer could not understand if he
tried, the department of agriculture
sends out a practical man who puts
the facts about improved methods into
understandable form, shows the farm
er how to apply them and nswers his
questions. The railroad president, in
stead of lecturing. the farmer on his
wastefulness and lack of enterprise,
employs a man who knows modern ag
riculture and sends out a special train
fitted up with lecture rooms and ex-
hfbits where the farmers can gather
and can learn lust what the new farm
Ing may be made to mean to their
particular locality. Last year the at
tendance at. such train lectures and
demonstrations was over 100000.

ors to show by actual results the adj
vantages OF scientific methods of crop
rotation and culture. In many locali-
ties the farmers themselves, realizing
the value Of this work, are putting UP
their own money to carry it on.
In the minds of those who have
studied the subject there is no ques-
ton as to the superiority of these
modern methods which amount to TAX
ing the school to the farmer instead Of
to persuade the farmer to go to
school and which teach by practical
demonstration rather than by theory.
Nor is there any question as to the
urgent necessity of greatly increasing
the output Of American farms. This
is shown by the tremendous increase
in price of all farm products, by the
rapid decrease in food exports and the
steady rise of food imports and by the
fact that, while the acreage yield of
American farms has remained prac-
tically stationary there has been a
very marked advance in the rate of
yield in the principal countries of Eu-
rope.
The average yield per acre last year
in the United States was 1875 bushels
offwheat, 1916 bushels of rye, and 24.4
bushels of. oats. The latest available
figures giving the average for five

to a. that it has at last got it's stride.
The Boys Eneampment.
The boys encampment under the
auspices Of the North Dakota Better
Farming association, was a splendid
success. Eighty-nine boys from thir-
ty-three counties were present, pay
ing their own expenses with a very
few exceptions. Their time was di-
vided between work and play, the
former predominating as the boys
We're there for business. Lectures,
demonstrations and class work Of an

Pertaining nature, held the interest of
the boys through the whole week, and
the play periods were eagerly used by
visiting in a body the various exhibits
In the company of some person able to

certainly had a good time and every

will be Of everlasting value.
The Live Stock.
The fame Of North Dakota's bumper
crop has spread to n~eighboring states
and exhibitors from Illinois, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota and South Dakota came
%trooping into Fargo to join forces with
the breeders of the home state in plac-
ing before the people of North Dakota
the greatest exhibition of live stock
ever seen at a North Dakota fair. Ev-
cry department was full and overflow
ing. Even for a time after the fair had
started 1t was found necessary to keep
a force of carpenters at work to pro-
vide additional room for the overflow
of live stock. The representation was
wide and included some Of the best
known exhibits hat win be on the
circuit this season. 1t occasioned
some comment that in this state where
grain-growing has long been the dom
.inent feature, such an exhibit of live
stock should be assembled. The value
of live stock raising in connection
with farming has been so thoroughly
demonstrated in North Dakota that
breeders are enjoying a profitable de-
mand for all the stock they had to Of
fer. Never has the demand been keen
er than at the present, judging from
the rapidity with which stock was sold
during the fair at good prices. Breed
ers are in fine spirits as to the future
of their business in North Dakota. and
the outlook Is distinctly optimistic.
The demand for live stock was confn-
ed to no particular class but exhibit
ors of all classes felt the healthy de-
mand.
In all departments affairs moved
along smoothly under the direction Of
capable men. Judges were On duty
whose experience qualified them for
the work, and there was an absence Of
dissatisfaction which sometimes mars
a fair where judges have to be selected
without the proper regard for their
qualifications.

have been especially imported from
Ireland, and during the regular per-
Torrance these clever animals give a
very remarkable exhibition of timber
topping. One of them, a black horse
called Luckett, is a thoroughbred
raised on the ranch of the late Lucky
Baldwin near Los Angeles, which,
with his weight up, ran a mile in
1881 over the Santa Anita track.
Luckett was sold because his temper
became so bad that he refused to face
the barrier. and was regarded as alb
solutely useless from every stand
point.
Since he has been acquired by the
Sells Floto people, however, and under
the skillful tutelage of Rhoda Ropal, he
has become one of the most docile

The average yield of these three
crops in six European countries there
fore was twice the average yield of the
United States. 1t seems almost in
credible that the eBlgian farmer
working a soil that has been titled FOR
centuries, can get SO bushels of wheat
to the acre, while the American, Gull
tivating new, fresh land with the best
farm machinery in the world gets only
1875 bushels. The contrast becomes
even more striking if the increase in
acreage yields in the European coun-
tries during the past twenty-five years,
amounting in many cases to an actual
doubling in average output, is compar-
ed with the gain in the United tSates
of less than 5 per cent.
Economists are coming to agree that
this is the chief factor in the excessive
cost of living in the United States,
since, while population increased 81
per cent between the last two censuses
the aggregate acreage of all the cereal
crops increased only 3.5 per cent and
the actual yield Of these crops in 1908
was but 1.6 per cent greater than in
1899.
