SOME REFORMS in HANDLING COTTON

are wholly preventable and it should
be a misdemeanor to produce such
a package. The ginner should also
be liable in damages to the owner or
the cotton thus injured. Gin cut
cotton results either from operating
defective equipment. which compe-
tent gin inspection could remedy or
condemn, or from ginning cotton
when too damp.
THE ginner can readily detect the
latter conditions and should not be
permitted to gin wet cotton even at
the request of the valued customer
AS a matter of fact, most of the wet
cotton offered is rent cotton, or cot
ton already pledged as the sole secur-
itv for debts and in the quality OF
which the grower no longer feels an
interest. In such cases the interests
of the creditor are entitled to legal
protection at the gin.
uniformity in size of bale and in
style and quality of covering can
come only through the unanimous
action of ginners by agreement or by
legal requirement. Samples taken at
the gin and protected by suitable reg
ulations can be made a satisfactory
basis for determining grade and sta
pie and will remove the necessity of
cutting the bale for sampling in pri-
mary markets.
Coupled with the proper grading
system the ginner's sample would be
made to furnish an acceptable basis
for every necessary transaction be-
tween producing and consuming or
carnations, eliminating the cutting
and consequently robbing the deter
iroation of bales, Obviating patch
ing and resultant changes in tare at
compress points, removing the most
common grounds for CLAIMS and re-
ducing to a minimum the city croG.
which is a eedless tag on the indus
try.
"Thr0 Ign the gin tn" entire c'5p
must pass and at that point the cot
ton first comes within the reach OF
official or trade regulations. From
the gins can come the conclusive
statistics of the crop. Through the
ginner alone can the careless, igno-
rant or dishonest producer be eff
fectively reached. The gin plant Is
in short the vital point in the cotton
handling situation, and offers an eff
fective agency through which 10
bring about improved conditions.
We'll organized, responsible CO.
operative growing and handling asso-
Citations, acting in CONCERT with the
other elements of cotton trade, can
ultimately bring about Improvements
that will save billions of dollars"

The Highest HonOrs.

Lincoln was greater than president
in the victory he won ever poverty
and ungainliness and ignorance. Lee
was greater than confederate COM
mander in the unfailing courtesy and
high character he bore in peace and
war. Joseph was greater than any
prime minister in purple and gold
and royal chariot in his fearless and
inflexible devotion to the God of
Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. Let
us forget the glitter and pomp and
circumstance of a great position and
honor and think upon the high and
noble character that glorifies such
men.

Triton WANTS FARM STATION
Legislature Will Be Urged to Estab-
lish a Branch Experiment Station
in South Georgia.

in South Georgia.
Triton, Ga.-Tifton and Tiff
county will aid by every possible
means the efforts of Representative
r. c. Ellis of this county to secure
a branch experiment station for
South Georgia.
At a meeting of the board of gov
ernors of the Tiftoin chamber of
commerce Tuesday afternoon COM
mittee of three, Col. r. e. Dinsmore,
Briggs Carson and E. o. Hood, was
appointed to draw up suitable reso-
lutions indorsing Col. Ellis bill, and
the organization will give him hearty
support in putting the measure
through the legislature,
Was Favorably Reported.
Col. Ellis introduced bill pro-
viding for the establishment of a
branch experiment station at Triton
in the legislature of 1911. 1t was
favorably reported by the committee,
but failed of passage during the clos
ing days of the session.
The approach of the boil weevil,
the paralyzed condition of the sea
island cotton market, the rapid devel-
opment of fruit and nut growing and
agriculture in South Georgia causes
the necessity for branch experiment
station to grow greater each year.

HALF BILLION GOES BEGGING
Crisp New Notes Lying Idle i'm Unit
ed States Treasury Awaiting
Banks Application.

WASHINGTON.-Half a billion
dollars in crisp, new national bank
notes is lying idle in the United
States treasury awaiting distribution
among such national banks and cur
rency associations as may apply for
shares of it and qualify to receive it
under the terms of the Aldrich-Vree-
land bill passed by congress five years
ago. Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Adoo so announced tonight, saying
that to date he had received no APP
plications for assurances of the cur
rency. Security, which is stipulated
in the Northumberland act, is re-
quired before the money will be dol
ed out. Mr.. McAdoo's announcement
reads:
The Aldrich-Vreeland act passed
five years ago authorizes the secreta-
ry of the treasury to issue additional
currency to national banks and cur
rency associations upon the security
of state and municipal bonds as we'll
as government, and also under GER
tain conditions to currency associa-
lions on high-class short time COM
mercial paper as well as on govern
ment, state and municipal bonds.
In accordance with the act the
secretary of the treasury has actually
in hand $500, 100000 in new national
bank notes, which can be issued inn
mediately to any national banks or
currency associations applying there
for and complying with the provis-
ions of the act.''

WILL GO AFTER DOGS AGAIN.
Ware County Will Probably Take the
Lead in Canine Legislation.

Lead in Canine Legislation.
Ware county will probably take
the lead at this summers session
of he legislature in the question of
dog legislation. Waycross has seen
too much of the mad dog this year
to let an opportunity pass of getting
county legislation on the question.
1t is proposed to pass an act requir-
ing all owners of dogs to muZzle their
dogs at certain seasons of the year.
That other counties in the state will
follow Ware in this kind of Iegisla-
ton is believed certain. Two girls
have died at Waycross from mad dog
bites, and over a score of others re-
ceived bites for which they took
treatment.

LETS GO AT SPLIT SKIRTS
New York Divine Declares Garment
Is Sex Advertising and Precludes
Assumption of MOdeSty.


NEW YORK.-"Sex advertising
seems to be the aim of the women
who are affecting the tight, side-split
skirts today" said Rev. DR.. Walter
Laidlaw, secretary of the New York
Federation of Churches, last night.
And the limit, apparently, is not
yet reached. The women who are
thus displaying their legs and forms
are of most peculiar mental fiber.
They must be.
"The dresses themselves preclude
any serious assumption of modesty,
and one who thinks can draw but one
conclusion when the question is ask
ed-why this style?
''The present demand for cleaner
marriages and the study of eugenics
brings one eventually past the mere
consideration of cleaner bodies and
into the question of cleaner minds.
If we would bequeath to posterity
cleaner physiques and sturdier bod.
les not alone must we decide to live
better physical lives, but we must
clean the mind of the canker of un-
healthy thought.
at is scarcely matter of wonder
that the youth of today seeks I'M
healthy and dangerous pleasures
when he is constantly reminded of
the sex attraction by women who
would, perhaps, deny bitterly any de-
sire to corrupt him. In short, the
dress fashions are serious hindrances
to cleaner lives, better morals and |
cleaner generations to come" |

FIT. GAINES TO HAVE LIGHTS.
Erection of Electric Plant viii Soon
Be Begun in That Town.

Fort Gaines is soon to have an
electric plant installed on the Chemo-
chechobee creek, one and half miles
north of the town. The plant is to
be built by local and Montezuma par
ties. Plans are now being made and
perfected, and the installation of the
plant will soon begin.
It is figured that the plant will
cost about $1O,5OO, one-half of the
amount to be put up by local par
ties. The town is sadly in need of
better lighting system than the
present one, and all parties will pull
for the new system.

Wellston, Ohio.-In the eighties
DR.. E. s. Higley lent Charles Froe-
