Very great interest is being man
ifested throughout Georgia in the
Alabama Senatorial contest between
MIR Underwood and Mr.. Hobson.
Both men are we'll known in Geor-
gia, and both have relatives within
the State Each has a more or less
partisan following too. notwithstand-
ing the fact that Georgians primarily
have nothing whatever to do with
politics in Alabama.
Mr.. Underwood, Of course, is
rank favorite in Georgia, both in the
betting and in popular feeling. His
Presidential race made him well
known to Georgians by way Of repu-
tation and record, and very many
citizens have made il a point to look
him up in Washington and get ac-
quainted.
Mr.. Underwood, while apparently
the most modest Of men, is really
man of dominating personality. He
is suave, smooth, completely poised,
and all that sort of thing, but under
meath all of that is a man of iron!
He is diplomat OF the first class
and nothing has helped him more in
his distinguished career than his
amazing tact-but he moves steadily
and unswervingly along a positive
and determined road, nevertheless!
Few people in Georgia believe that
Mr.. Hobson can defeat Mr.. Under
wood for the Senate. Still, this State
is watching the progress Of the row
with more than ordinary interest.
Georgia is for Underwood, but II

Of the service varied with the density Of
the traffic he said. shippers il Boston
were entitled to a lower rate than those
80 miles from Boston, where the traffic
was lighter In turn shippers - miles
from Boston were entitled to a lower rate

CROW NOW REGARDED
AS FARMERS FRIENDS
Department of Agriculture Dispels
Myth as to Bird S Destructive
ness-Eats Many Pests.

Editor of The Reformer:
In years past nearly every farmer.
and IN fact nearly every one using
gun, was expected to shoot every
crow in sight. Until within a very
short period the popular impression
among farmers was that the crow was
his natural enemy, mercilesslv destro.-
ing his corn fields unless artifciallv or
otherwise protected. 1t was nv pleas
ure some months ago to consult some
Of the best audubon authorities and to
learn from them the fact that the crow
really is the farmer 5 friend and that
all the stories about his destruction
of corn fields were largely myths. Two
years ago one of the leading authori-
ties IN the agricultural department
said that it would not be long before
the farmer would recognize in the crow
a real friend instead of an enemy. In
this connection may | ask you ia
/ print the following editorial takef
/ from New York newspaper bearing
on this same subject:

ture at Washington comes a report il
