REF ORNCOURT5
ANDPR|SONS, IS
PLEA Of DORSEY
Solicitor FavOrs Legislative In
vestigation to Make Both
Systems More Efficient.

Solicitor General Hugh Dorsey, Of
the Fulton County Superior Court,
has given out an interview strongly
indorsing the proposal to appoint a
Legislative committee to make thor
ough investigation of the penal sys-
tenn and criminal court procedure in
Georgia, with view TO improving
both, increasing their efficiency and
bringing them thoroughly up to date.
AS Solicitor General, Mr.. Dorsey is
constantly brought in contact with
many difficulties under the Georgia
law Of convicting a man before a
jury, even when his guilt is certain,
81 think one of the difficulties"
that the members of the average jury
know that the conditions which sur
round a convict in Georgia tend to
make a man worse and not better
and that juries are consequently re-
luctant to deliver even a guilty man
into the hands of a justice that will
merely infiict punishment on him
without much likelihood of doing him
any good.
IF the penal system were revived
along practical and thoroughly con-
sentative lines, yet in such way
that It would make for the moral and
physical betterment of convicts, l
believe our juries would not only be
more willing to convict in proper
cases, but would also be willing TO
give the criminal courts wider author
ity, which they stand in such great
need Of"

Railroads Ask
Ban on Extra
Large Trunks
Urge State Commissioner to Limit
Size OF Baggage To Be
Checked Free.

Travellers who have been in the
habit Of using trunks of immense
size will be compelled to purchase
smaller receptacles or be put TO the
expense Of paying excess baggage, If
a petition pending before the Georgia
Railroad Commission is adopted. The
petition incorporates the wording of
a recent ruling of the Interstate Com
merce Commission regulating the
size Of trunks and fixing the excess
charges allowed.
No piece Of baggage, any dimen-
sion of which exceeds As inches, ex-
cept public entertainment apparatus
and whip cases, shall be handled on
the free check For each additional
inch a charge equal to the charge on
five pounds excess will be allowed,
while under no condition will baggage
be handled where any dimension is
more than ~ inches. unless it be a
whip case or public entertainment
paraphernalia. There will be no
change in the $50 weight allowance.
This rule already applies to inter-
state traffic and ibe railroads of Geor-
gia are trying to have 1t put into
effect on intrastate business. The
railroads urged immediate adoption,
but Chairman Murphy Gambler
wished the matter given publicity so
that the travelling men Of the State
might make a protest.
The ruling, II is said, would affect
no one but commercial travellers using
unusually large sample cases, as but
few trunks for private use come any
where near the 45-inch limit

tition: Atlanta and West Point; At

clpal. had realized that some time ago
from coming in contact with so many
students. For that reason they had
taken the matter UP with Council and
asked that domestic science be es-
tablished in the high school. But
Council had turned the measure down
every time.
Council has paid for some pur-
chased equipment. however" said MT
Daley, and when it eventually gives
us the course. as we hope. teaching
the girls the right method OF spend
ing VIII certainly be one OF our main
points emphasized. The reason Coun-
Gil has put us on so long l suppose, Is
because it doesn't realize the neces-
sity or practically OF the thiug-or
doesn't think IL can AFFORD II"
Eventually Mr.. Daley felt that both
fomestic science and art would both
be put into all the schools.
Extravaganee Has Spread.
Mrs. Haden said:
Girls should be taught in school
the right handling OF money because
the spirit OF extravaganza has spread
so rapidly In the past few years with
the coming Of so many luxuries Even
mothers and fathers have caught the
spending habit-and incidentally the
debt habit-so that their children
have acquired a wrong angle on
things
If girls could see demonstrations
OF cuts OF meat-dinerences IN vege-
OF Cloth-and be
taught 10 know the economical in
stead Of the exrravaEant things 10
buy there would be a marked diff
ference in the wives a few years
hence.
They would not only know how 20
save 0u household things. but their
taste ia dress would improve from
knowing real value from false. They
would not waste money on bargain
counter uoyhiugs.
Mrs Haden's ideal plan would be.

liable Asset to the State,
He Declares.

Governor elect John NJ. Slaton Sat
urday night gave hearty Endorsement
to the 1918 Georgia Corn Show and
agreed 10 turn over the Capitol the
first week in December for the annual
exhibition.
State Agent J. Phil Campbell
proudly announced that this was the
first pre-inauguration promise that
anyone had been able TO extract from
the Governor elect.
The 1912 corn show covered the en-
tire lower floor Of the Capitol with
1900 exhibits. and the second floor
was used for the Chamber Of Com
merce dinner 10 the Corn Club boys
who came to Atlanta for the week.
Mr.. Campbell is authority for the
statement that the two floors are
quite apt to be insufficient this year
and that It viii be necessary 70 en-
croach on the third floor.
My friends know that I have been
rather chary about making Official
promises prior 10 tho Inauguration. 10
said Mr.. Slaton In considering the
application for the use Of the Capitol
but this Is one thing to which IN
hesitatingly commit myself am in
favor OF the Georgia Corn Show as
one Of the strongest influences now at
work in upbuilding the State and
helping # achieve its splendid agri-
cultural distinction.
Edueates Farmer Boy.
I am In favor OF the corn show
because II teaches Georgia farmer
boys, and their fathers. TOO. how to
get fully one-third more corn out Of
their land with practically no addi-
tionsl expense.
Il am reliably informed that since
1903 there has been an increased pro-
duction OF corn in Georgia, sufficient
TO give every Tnpn. woman and child.
OF every color. one peck Of meal out
OF every corn crop.
This means that the Georgia Corn
Clubs are performing the greatest
possible economic work that any per-
son or any organization can under
take-teaching people 10 become self
sustaining
The influence OF the Corn Clubs
extend beyond the planting OF this one
particular crop II teaches the Rd-
vantages OF intensive farming, which
has been the solution OF agricultural
and economic questions In all coun-
tries
Interest on Increase.
The Corn Club work is a work that
goes on quietly from year TO year
without sensattonahSm, but with
cumulative effect OF tremendous
power
Il am glad 60 SEQ that the Atlanta
Chamber OF Commerce Corn SHOW
committee has already taken up ao-
dive preparations for the 1913 show
and understand that keen interest IL
awakened in all parts OF the State"
Il Is predicted that the number OF
individual exhibits this year VIII al
least double that Of last year, though
the memberships in the Corn Clubs OF
the State may not be materially m
creased.

"Girls In the high schoo. should be

Trade in sona cricks.s.

Selling crickets is a lucrative busf- ness in Japan, where the insects are valued for their songs and kept in cages like canary birds. Tn Tokio there are two wholesale merchants who send their agents into the streets of the large cities. The insects are carried in little bamboo cages. A good seller clears approximately from eighty cents to a dollar a day. An insect valued for It's music brings from two to seven cents The kusa hibari Is the most valuable of all the songsters, but the common cricket and the grasshopper are considered excellent singers.
 The singers are collected from the fields in September. before laying time. They are taken from the grass and shut up in glass Jars. Soon after they are imprisoned the females lay their eggs and die almost in1na ediately aft erward. The jars containing them are kdpt in temperature of 80 degrees centigrade.
 The young come forth in March.
 The loss of eggs is about 10 per cent. The male is the singer; he only is an object of commerce. an from one hundred eggs the cultivator despite oll his care. has only fifty salable fn- sects. The lot of the locust is mar tyfdonn from birth to death The lo cust is the top of the Japanese child: he is caught on bamboo twigs rubbed with a gluey substance and tormented according to the ignorance or the cru city of his keeper The life of the singing insect never exceeds term of five weeks.-Harper's Weekly.
