Peach Loss Placed
At Over so Per Cent

Atlanta, April 2 An exami-
nation of the peach orchards in
and near Fulton county by E
Lee Worsham, state entomolo-
gist, resulted in the announce
ment today that the damage
probably would be in excess of
the estimated so per cent destruc-
ton. Some of the small peaches
which appeared all right were
found to have dark spots inside.
Reports began to come in today
in response to letters sent out
from TIE department of entomo-
logy asking for authentic infor-
nation on the effect of the cold
snap. From the Cornelia district
came the report that from 80 to
40 per cent of the early varieties
had been destroyed and that 70
per cent of the Elbertas had suf-
fered severely.
The apple orchards were injur-
ed slightly in some parts of the
state and other fruits were in
iured.

Atlanta Financier Died
Same Day as Morgan

Atlanta, April by tragic
and peculiar coincidence Joseph
T. Orme, one of Atlanta's fore
most bankers and one of the
South's most powerful financiers,
died on the same morning and
almost at the hour here, as ]. P.
Morgan, New York's most ia
nous banker and the worlds
most famous fnancier, died in
Rome, Italy.
While Mr.. Orme was not an
old man, his dea h was great
shock to his family and the COM
munity, he too, like Mr.. Morgan,
had put his house in order, :"
and his death was not felt in a
financial way by the Institutions
with which he was connected.
Mr.. Orme was fifty-tWo years
old, At the time of his death he
was vice-president of the Lowry
National Bank; president of the
Georgia Railway & Electric Co.;
treasurer Of the Chamber of
Commerce; treasurer of the Board
of Education and director in
many organizations.
The funeral will take place this
afternoon. the Rev. W.. W. Mem
minger, of All Saints Episcopal
Church, officiating.

GeOrgiia's Increase
In Property Values

Atlanta, April with all
Georgia's wonderful de Telopment
this state possesses the advan-
taces of the old "frontier" as
compared with many very crowd
ded and over-populated sections
of the county.
The consolidation of Georgia S
tax digest has brought to light
at the capit:l some facts that are
scarcely rea liable. The digest
shows that wild lands decreased
nearly million acres in extent dur
ing last year alone, and naturally
increased materially in value.
The advance in values in Geor-
gia is not limited. however, to
farm lands, or to any special
group of interests. 1t applleS
also to urban territories.
Town and city property was
valued at twohundred and fifteen
million, six hundred. and forty
nine thousand. four hundred and
ten dollars in 1911; in 1912 it was
valued at two hundred and thir-
ty-two Million one hundred and
seventy-seven thousand and
eighty-fve dollars.

There are various practical inexpen.

always give preference to those with
wide mouths. Before using, the jars
and the lids should be thoroughly ster-
ilized by boiling in water for fifteen
minutes.
The Canning Process.
The first step in canning is the Sc
lection and preparation OF the vegeta-
bles. Never attempt to can any vege.
table that has matured and com.
menced to harden, or one that has be.
gun 10 decay. AS rule, young vege.
tables are superior in flavor and in
texture to the more mature ones. Veg.
etables are better II gathered in the
early morning while the dew is still
on them. If 1t is impossible to can
them Immediately do not allow them
to wither but put them in water or a
cool place where they will keep crisp
until you are ready TO use them. Do

well swept and busted some time be.

Every housekeeper IS familiar with
the open kettle method OF sterilization.
The fruit or vegetable is cooked
in kettle then transferred to the Jar.
This method not only takes a great
deal of time and labor but 1t also Of.
fers an excellent opportunity for bac.
terra TO enter. The best methods OF
sterilization are the hot water bath
and the steam pressure. These are
especially desirable because the goods
are cooked inside the jar and the air
can not enter: consequently there can
be no decay II the lid has been prop
erly fastened.

THE TRAINMEN
AND THEIR POSITION

Strikes which would stop the traf-
fic of all railroads serving more
than thirty millions of people are
hot to be contemplated with an ac-
quiescent mind. The rights OF the
public. in such case, are of vastly
greater consequence than those Of
either the railroads or the employees.
II the conductors and trainmen had
precipicated strike without giving
ample opportunity to the public to
protect itself, they would have been
entitled to no sympathy whatever.
1t should be remembered that as re-
cent as 1910 the conductors and
trainmen of the New York Central
system made demands that were ar
bitrated and that resulted In a very
substantial increase Of wages. The
railroad had accepted two labor
leaders Of high standing as arhitra-
tors. A similar situation. involving
another railroad. had resulted In the
acceptance of the New York Cen
trails award, whereupon the settle
ment in the New York Central case
was adopted quite generally, and be-
came the standard throughout the
eastern half OF the United States for
conductors and trainmen. It was in
, consequence Of this great victory OF
the conductors that the engineers
and firemen last year made their
partially successful demands for
Standardization and increase of pay
throughout the same territory. 1t
should not be supposed, therefore,
that the conductors and trainmen
are now making their demands in
the wake of the engineers and fire.
men. This would be to reverse tha
sequence. The genral advance CIV
en- the conductors and trainmen in
1910 has been too recent to justify
, extensive new demands, with a gen.
ci'al strike on all railroads us tho
alternative. 1t will be necessary
sometime to put the railway services
, in position where the concerted
strike will be impossible. Railroads
are of Just as essential IL public
| character as are forces Of policemen
and firemen, or the postal clerks and
carriers. The strike is not a proper
| weapon to be used by men In such
cmployments. A concerted railroad
