After the repairs had been ordered
and DR.. Porter had paid for a good
portion of them as they arrived, the
machine was tried out by the Chal'
mers Motor Co. and in this tIyeut a
similar injury resulted to it while
still in the care of the motor compa-
ny. Manager Archibald claimed that
DR.. Porter owed him $170. DR.. Por-
ter entered counter claim for dam
ages and detention Of his machine,
and had to resort to q replevin In Ut
der to get possession of it.
The suit was a complicated one
and took up much time, and resnlteo
in an order of possession for DR.. Por-
ter and judgment against Archibald
for damages and detention to the
amount Of $56.77.
The machine was held under the

John D. Davis, Of Culleoka, Is

success. He planted three and one
half acres and has sold $3.50 worth Of
the delicious product, an average Of
500 to the acre. The melons were Of
dne size and favor and the grower
had no trouble in disposing Of them
at most profitable prices. Mr.. Davis
stated today that the growing and
cultivation Of melons required no
more labor than the growing Of a
crop Of corn, the expense being about
the same. The returns are four or
five times as large. Mr. Davis mel
ons were among the finest ever plac-

grow much larger acreage next

Senate Provision for Minimum Of
Eight Regional Reserve
Banks Accepted
WILL ADJOURN TODAY
Agreed 2 Percent Bonds Shall
Be Redeemed at Rate Of
S25,OOO,OOO Annually

Washington, Dec. 20. The join &
committee on the admin
istration currency bill agreed to
strike from the measure the senate
provision for an insurance fund to
garantee deposits in national banks.
The committee agreed to strike out
the senate amendment which would
allow the use of the new federal re-
serve notes as bank reserves.
The conferees agreed on an entire
ly new provision to take care of the
outstanding government 2 percent
bonds on which the present currency
is based. They will be retired, two
years after the new system is install :
ed, at the rate of $25, 200, 900 a year.
This amount will be taken over from
the present national banks by the
new regional banks in proportion to
their capital and surplus. On one
half of their bonds, the aegional
banks will be allowed to issue cur
rency similar to the presant bank
notes. The remainder will be retir-
ed by the substation of 20-year 9
percent bonds or treasury gold notes
with an agreement that the regional
banks viii renew the notes each
year for thirty years.
The bank reserv section as framed
by the senate was accepted with but
slight changes. They require the
reserve of Is percent in central re-
serve city banks and II percent in
country banks.
The make up of the federal reserve
board was the last matter in dispute
The house members reluctantly
agreed that the secretary of agricul.
ture be removed, but insisted that
the comptroller of the currency be
made member.
When the two branches of congress
convene today, it is expected plans
wi be made for long recess, be-
ginning Tuesday. 1t was predicted
tonight that the currency bill could
be completed and signed by the
president late today or Tuesday
and congress has dropped all other
problems in the anticipation of the
| first actual recess that it will have
enjoyed since April z. tits planned
