AUGUSTA BARGE
LINE To START
WITH 100000
Threatened Cotton Rate Increase
All That Was Needed to Reiu-
venate River Traffic.

AUGUSTA. Sept. 2o.-The expert
ence of Macon with her freight rates
has thrown a scare into Augusta
business men, and il is predicted that
the barge line fund will be oversub-
scribed within few hours after the
traflc committee starts out tomor-
row.
Augusta enjoys splendid rates be-
cause Of her position on the Savan-
nah River. Macon also enjoys favor
able rates because of her position on
the Ocmulgee. but several years ago
traffic on that river was stopped. The
result was that the railroads raised
the rates and Macon is now handi-
capped.
The rate on cotton from Augusta
to Savannah is s1.O5 per bale. The
rate on cotton from Macon to Savan-
nah is 81 per bale.
During 1911-1912, when Georgia
made the greatest cotton crop in her
history, Augusta received $780, 900
bales The largest export houses on
the Continent have agencies here, and
better prices are paid for cotton here
than elsewhere because Of the IA
Vorable rate.
Augusta allowed the steamboat line
to go into bankruptcy and traffic or
the river to stop. Then Colonel d. c,
Kingman, of the United States Corps
of Engineers, in charge Of the Sa-
vannah River issued statement that
unless Augusta did something for the
river traffic he would not recommend
any additional appropriations for the
Savannah River. Then Augusta got
busy. 1t was at first thought the bet
ter plan would be to have more
steamboats,, but this plan was dis
carded, as a barge line appeared to be
the best solution.
Colonel Kingman threw the great
est scare into Augusta business men
that they ever had for they knew
that a discontinuance of traffic on the
river would be followed by raise in
freight rates equally as high as the
rates which Macon has to stand for
because OF her failure to have traf12
on the Ocmulgee.
The barge line is now assured. for
although the traffic committee will
not start out until tomorrow morn
ing. still loyal citizens have indicated
their willingness to see to 1t that the
barge line company. with 100000
capital stock, is started at once.

80 CTS. BOUNTY
ON THE HEADS Of
Hawks AND OWLS
More Game and Birds Destroyed
by These Pests Than by Hunt
ers, Says Sportsman.

AUGUSTA. Sept. 2O.-Former CHIEF
OF Police NJ. J. Norris. one of the best
known sportsmen in this section Of
the country. believes that he has the
successful solution to the Georgia
game problem.
Mr. Norris says that the response
billty for scarcity of game and birds
is laid almost entirely at the door of
the sportsmen who hunt wild game
1t is not so much the fault of hunts
men as hawks and owls, according to
Mr. Norris, and he proposes that a
bounty OF 80 cents be placed on the
head Of each hawk and owl
Great Destruction.
The distance between Augusta and
Savannah by the river is 2SS miles. &c
said Mr.. Norris, and a conservative
estimate places the number OF hawks
and owls on the river alone at 1000.
Each hawk and owl will eat at least
one squirrel. one young turkey, one
duck or one quail each week, and
with 50 weeks in the year there are
$1,000 Of these game birds or fowls
eaten by the birds Of prey mentioned.
I believe that each hawk and owl will
come nearer eating a bird or a SPUR
rel per day than only one per week,
but the figures based on one being
consumed each week show how enor-
nous is the destruction.
Bounty Attracts Negroes.
IF a bounty Of so cents each was
placed on the heads Of hawks and
owls there would be great quantities
OF them killed Negroes, principally
would literally live in the swamps.
The number of quail. squirrels. duck
and wild turkeys, as vel as other
game birds and animals, would in
crease rapidly and at the same time
the huntsmen could enjoy much bet
ter sport
Doves. as well as quail. are eaten
/ largely by hawks. and | have had ia
l shoot the hawks away from dove
/ fields before the doves would come AZ
| all.
The bounty could be paid from the
/ funds secured by selling hunting
! licenses and from fines and forfeitures
! for violating the same laws"
