COWS ON TRACK
CAUSED WRECK
NEAR OCONEE
Two men we're KILLED
While Five Suffered Injuries
In Wreck

Oconee, Ga, March 23-Two men
We're killed and five injured, one seri-

The dead are: F. NJ. Turner, steam

The injured are
B. L. Wright, conductor, knee cut
and hip bruised, Gordon, Ga

Engineer Turner was killed instant

ing carried to Macon. The injured
were carried to Macon and are being
treated there.
viii Investigate.
The derailed train was made up of
a steam shovel engine and twelve
empty fiat cars. The derailment was
caused by two cows, which walked
into one of the fiat cars. Five of the
care were derailed and the tracks torn
up for considerable distance. Thu
dead and injured men were caught be-
tween the derailed fiat cars.
| The train was running as extra No
1852 and was bound for Toomsboro
At the time of the accident the trair
was RAINING at fifteen miles an hour
and rounding a sharp curve. Officials
of the Central say the accident would
not have occurred had the cars beer
loaded, but that the collision with the
COWS easily derailed the empty fat
cars.
A relief train was sent out from Ma,
con. At $3.50 O'Clock the tracks were
cleared and in condition for traffic.
An investigation of the wreck, it is
understood, will be held Sunday. In
accordance with the Centrals recently
promulgated order two disinteresteC
parties will be called in to sit with the
officials of the Central in determining
the cause of the wreck. Supt. w. H

CANNERIES ON THE FARM

Alabama needs hundreds of these
canneries to make profit of neglected

Some progress has already BEEN
made toward systematized methods OF
handling vegetables and fruits shipped
to markets in the North and West
tending to reduce to the minimum TIE
possible wastes and consequent loss
to the growers. either in inability to
get their goods to market or in getting
them there in too great quantities be-
yond the legitimate demand. Some
advance has been made in equippinS
the South with canneries for products
of agriculture and the fisheries, and
wherever such plants have been es-
| tablished and conducted and con
Quoted on a proper basis, not only the
producers, but the community as d
whole have been benefited. But in
both particulars there is still much "
be done, and in case of the small
canning outfit for the home, hardly &
| beginning has been made, although the
advantages are manifold and far
reaching.
In the first place, just as the estab

ages an expansion in the growing in

DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
BY DR.. T. ]. ALLEN
Food Specialist
COMPARISON OF CEREALS.

All the grains are closely re-
lated, having been developed
from grass, and yet there are
differences In nutrltive values
and digestibiIity which ansIy-
sis and the most elaborate lab.
oratory tests do not show.
Analysis shows but slight diff
ference between wheat and rice,
yet there Is great difference In
their nutritive values and d.
eestlbility. In some cases en-
tire wheat Is an excellent diet,
In other cases rice (unpoIished)
Is more desirable. Wheat and
rye seem to differ little as indi-
Gated by the analysis, yet prac-
ticaI dletetic tests show de-
clded differences. Rye Is more
easily digested than wheat, be-
ing more like rice. Oats Is the
most, laxative of the grains and
the most nutritious, though the
fuel value Is less than that Of
either wheat or rye, as the
analysis show. Corn varies more
than any of the other cereals,
the southern containing more
porteln, and the percentage of
fat, double that Of wheat, varies
much.

A splendid text for the discussion OF
diversification in farm activities IS
given by the Birmingham Ledger -
the following words:
Canning outfits can be had, from the
little ones to be used on cooking
stove, making twelve cans at a time, 20
the big $500 ones to use as neighbor-
hood shops where hundreds of dozens
are packed of the same grade add
brand.
1t is easy to operate cannery, and
there is good money in it if the owne"
will stay right by it and do the brain
work and part of the hand work. The
more hired labor the less the profits.
On the farms and market gardens
of Alabama there is immense waste.
shameful waste of vegetables ard
fruits and berries. All this waste car
be turned into profit by canning the
surplus into winter food or into cam
ned goods that can be traded to the
merchants or sold in the market tow!
Now is the time to think of these
things. The Gaming outfit can be
bought and the cans be made ready
before the rush of farm and garden
work begins. Tomatoes and corn,
beans and okra can be preserved III
quantities. The berries and fruits car:
be taken in turn, and at small outlay
full supply of canned goods may be
put away for home use and the surplus
sold to those who want it, at fair
prices. There is a good demand for
home-packed goods
If people would only use the small
canning outfits it would make a great
difference in the family food bills and
give neighbors a chance at clean, pur4
goods. The cost is small, the labor s
small and the profit and pleasure
great. OF course a larger came y
gives larger profits and brings neigh
bors in closer together.
