RAINS WILL REDUCE ACREAGE

in this section are further behind
in their preparations for the crops
than in number of years. A few
days ago it seemed that the continu-
ed rainy spell would be broken for
brief period anyway, and that the
farmers would be able to make some
progress in planting their crops, but
the showers set in again and the
farmers were unable to do much
work.
Because of the farmers in Georgia
having been so seriously handicapp-
ed during the past few months in
preparing the ground for planting
their crops it is expected that cotton
acreage will be reduced to a big ex-
tent this year, as the farmers, even
if they were disposed to go ahead
would not have the time in which to
and plant the usual bumper crops,
prepare the ground for big crop of
the fieecy staple.

Organizing Corn Clubs Will Be
gin in Near Future.
The counties which are to compose
the West Georgia Agricultural Dis
trict have been announced, AS has
been stated before, the agent will be
Mr.. c. M. James, well known ex-
pert. Mr.. James is expected to reach
Columbus at any time and establish
headquarters, when the work of or
ganizing corn clubs will begin.
The counties that are to compose
the district are Muscogee, Harris,
Troup, Meriwether, Epson, Talbot,
Crawford, Bibb, Jones, Wilkinson,
Pulaski, DOoly, Houston, Twiggs,
Sumter, Schley, Marion, Chattahoo-
chez, Stewart, Webster, Randolph,
Terrell, Macon, Crisp, Wilcox, Dodge
and Taylor.
Great interest is already being
manifested in the organization of
corn clubs throughout the district,
and the large number of prizes that
are being offered are helping to in
crease the interest.
The boys are becoming much en-
Chuo6u ON6I inc quSSIlOu VI SSCuI-
ing some of the prizes that are be-
ing offered, and there will be a large
number of contestants when the to-
tai from the various counties are con-
sidered.
The fact that there is to be a big
corn show held in Columbus this fall
is adding to the interest felt in the
organization of corn clubs. 1t will
mean that the prize yields of corn
from the different counties will be
put on exhibition in that city, and it
is expected that there will be some
magnificent yields shown.

MOUNTAINS OF SNOW.
Recent Storms in New York Severest
in the History of That Section.


The recent snow storms in north
ern New York were among the most
severe in the history of that section
for many years. Railroad traffic was
entirely Frustrated and trains had to
be abandoned in huge drifts.
At Philadelphia, in Jefferson coun-
ty, a snow pillow while cutting it's
way through the snow banks crashed
into the engine of passenger train
and both had to be abandoned tenn
porarily There was no other way.
Railroad men were tired out from
many hours of the most exacting
work which they had endured in
their efforts to keep the roads open.
The load proved too great, and for
a few hours they sank beneath the
burden to gather strength for re-
newed attacks upon the mountains
of snow heaped everywhere along
the line.
In many parts of northern New
York the drifts ranged from II to
10 feet in hight.

THESE LINCOLN COUNTY AMI
MAILS SET A NEW RECORD.
Strayed Away from Home and Inn
prisOned Themselves by Roofing
Dirt Against Door of Barn.


WASHINGTON, Ga.-According to
the news brought to Washington to-
day from Lincoln county remarka-
BILE case of fasting which goes one
better the case Of the celebrated ply
sician, DR.. Tanner, who first demon
strated that a human being can live
for 40 days without food, has devel-
oped on the farm of Joe Halves,
prosperous negro farmer.
Contrary to the natural tendencies
of the animal it happened to be
herd of twelve hogs this time in
stead of one human who abstained
from food, and the hogs remained Al
DAYS in their unnourished state in
stead of the forty days of Tanners
demonstration.
1t happened in this manner: Joe
Halves had two sows, thre shoats
and seven pigs, which were very val
liable to him on his farm. He lost
track of the twelve animals and
thought they either had gone astray
or had been stolen. He made

district for them, but failed to ind
trace of the missing herd, which
appeared to have been forever lost.
Finally the negro decided to try
the efficacy of a small advertisement
in his county paper for the lost ami
mails as a final resort at locating
them. This did the work, as Joe
Halves was notified by farmer who
had read the advertisement that evil
dences were seen near the public
road to show that hogs had been
roofing there several weeks before,
and upon investigation the negro
found that the missing hogs had en-
tered a hay barn on one side OF MS
plantation which was quite near the
road. They had rooted around after
entering the barn in such a manner
that the door was stoutly fastened
against them. They had been there
for forty-one days, so the negro
claims, without food or water.
One of the sows had died and the
other was very weak, but Joe Halves
stated that the shoats were so strong
and vigorous that they beat him run"
ming to the house when liberated.

and Blank Spaces. Convention
Later to Elect Delegates.
ATLANTA.-The democratic cleo
torate of Georgia will express its
choice for president of the United
States at presidential preference
primary on May 1, the date set by
the state democratic executive COM
mittee at meeting held here today.
The plan for conducting the pri-
mary and consolidating the returns
also was adopted by the committee.
The registration of 1912 will be
used as basis for voting. The coun-
ty executive committee of each coun-
ty will meet on May to consolidate
the county vote and the state execu-
tive committee will meet in Atlanta
May 10 to consolidate the vote of the
entire state and to declare the result
OF the primary.
1t was decided that the county ex-
ecutive committees will meet on May
%, and they are instructed to select
from among the friends of the sue
cessful candidate in the primary del
egates to represent the counties in
the state convention, which will be
held in Atlanta May 20. These pre-
cautions, it is stated, will insure a
convention unanimously in favor of
the successful candidate. The con-
vention will select % delegates and
the same number of alternates to the
national convention in Baltimore.
According to the plan adopted the
ballots used in the primary shall bear
the printed names of Champ Clark,
JudsOn Harmon, Oscar Underwood
and Woodrow Wilson with blank
spaces intervening for the names of
any other candidate preferred by the
voter.
Short Session of Committee.
Such was the concrete result of
the state democratic executive COM
mittee in the senate chamber of the
capitol today. The resolution adopt
ed without the dotting of an "i'' or
the crossing of a st" was offered by
P. A. Stovall of the Savannah Press,
and met with little opposition. The
committee wound up the business be-
fore it in less than an hour, and ad-
journed to the date named under the
resolution.
w. G. Neil of Columbus offered an
amendment to change the date for
the primary to May Is, but he had
little support. The early primary
idea was firmly fixed and practically
determined before the committee
met. Mr.. Neil held to the view that
the registration act applied as force
fully to county primaries as to any
others
No Second Choice.
C. B. Mckinney of DeKalb offered
resolution relating to a second
choice in the primary, but as he re

and also putting the committee on
record as favoring a state law for

New Haven. Conn. Oct. 22.-The Yale
coaches and players are satisfied with the
outcome of the game against West Point
up of the team except the quarterbac z
and end positions. Probably the ends will
remain they are until the return of
Romeisler to the game.
The quarterback position bids fair TO
be the most serious problem of the sea
son for the coaches Belief is expressed
here that the all-American quarterback
this year is likely to be found on one of
the small college elevens, possibly Wes-

Princetons Test Saturday.
Princeton, n. j. Oct 22.-The first real
test of the Princeton football team will
come next Saturday against Dartmouth.
The coaches have reason to be pleased
with the developments of the Princeton
team up to this time and while the line
appears to be a bit light, the forwards
are showing enough dash and vigor 20
Offset to a large extent their lack of bulk.
The team has rolled up some tremenc-

how much real strength Princeton pos

''High Cost of Living" Now on
Railway Dining Cars.
Superintendent Decide to
Charge for Bread and Butter.
THEY MAY INCLUDE CREAM
Follow Out Plan Adopted Re-
Gently in New York.
Other Items of Interest in the
Traffic World.
THEY MAY INCLUDE CREAM

Denver, Col, Oct. 22.-And now it is
on the dining cars that Old High Cost
of Living will take another crack at
the ultimate consumer
Take it from the American Associa-
ton of Dining Car superintendent,
who are holding convention at the
Albany hotel They are the ones that
are passing the word around They
say they can't help it; that they are
in nOwise implicated in the machina-
tions of the dread High Cost of Liv-
ms, and that they are as firmly grasp
ed in its grip as the rest.
However, nevertheless, and just the
same, the American Association of
Dining Car superintendent is prepar-
ing to charge the patrons on travel
ing dining rooms an extra bit of
change for bread, butter and cream.
That is one of the things plotted
beg pardon-considered in one of the
convention pow-wows.
In the near future the dining car
superintendent will follow the lead of
the New York and Chicago hotels and
put an extra punch in the travellers
meal check for the bread and the but
ter, and even the cream. What the
waiter leaves in the travellers pocket
book will pay for those extras that
never before have been charged for
for it, so. backed by the hearty sup
port of o. H. c. of l., there seems
no hope that there1l be even half a
chance for the traveller.
And they reiterate that they can't
help it; that it must be done Think
of the dreadful and awful expense the
railroads are put to in serving meals
on the diners, they will tell you, smil-
ingly.
And consider, if you please, that a
great many travellers nearly bankrupt
the railroads by making a full meal
on coffee 90 cents) and bread and
butter. (And this despite the fact that
menus cheerfulIy announce mo checks
for less than % cents').
Also contemplate that the scenery
viewed from the dining car window is
free. absolutely gratis-and be thank
full
Also remember that the regulation
scale of tips for the walters positively
will not be advanced, at least not for
awhile.
and still smiling, the superintendent
ask you to consider that things are
not so bad after all.
