PLANS FOR HELPING
SOUTH GEORGIA.
Considered at Meeting of
Commercial Secretaries
ASSOCIATION
is FORMED.
"South Georgia Developers
Will Meet Once a Month

leading commercial secretaries of
South Georgia met in executive
session in Quitman Tuesday. The
secretaries formed an association.
South Georgia Developers, which
will meet once a month. 1t is to
be limited in membership to the
men in South Georgia who are
doing things in the developing
line. 1t will include a few men
outside the commercial secretaries
who organized 1t.
The enthusiasm of the visitors
here over a get-together move
ment looking to the general de-
ve'opment of South Georgia was
notable. In the executive session
held after the luncheon many plans
were discussed.
+. G. Ferrall of the cambridge
Board of Trade, |. Gelders of the
Fitzgerald Chamber of Commerce
Martin V. Calvin of the Waycross
Chamber of Commerce, j. NJ.
Ashley of the Valdosta Chamber
of Commerce, John w. Greer of
the Moultrie Chamber of Com
merce and Edward Young Clarke
of the Brooks County industrial
Club were present and Mr..
Clarke was elected chairman of the
meeting and temporary chairman
of the organization.
Among the plans projected which
mean big things for this section
is the calling of a waterways con-
vention at cambridge in the near
future. The Flint river to Apala-
chicola makes cambridge the only
Georgia point from which boats
may go to Panama without sailing
around Florida. II is claimed that
with a very little deepening of
the channel 20-foot boats may
navigate this river and at the
waterways convention experts will
explain the plan,
A resolution indorsing the Geor-
gia- Florida Exposition at Valdosta
and pledging cooperation was
adopted and the secretaries will
work to get their counties repre-
sented at this important exhibit
ton of South Georgia resources.
A similar resolution was adopt.
ed regarding the cattle and stock
show at Moultrie this fall. The en-
tire organization will work togeth-
er to make this a big success and
to boost Moultrie's packing house
plant.
Fitzgerald's lead in developing
alfalfa and other pasturage crops
was heartily Endorsed and a special
resolution thanking Mr.. Gelders
for the effort he made in coming
so far to attend the meeting was
adopted. Mr.. Gelders has secured
the written promise of 100 farmers
around Fitzgerald to plant alfalfa
this fall and he is one of the most
progressive developers in this Sec
ton.
Another important move is to
have established in South Geor-
gia bureau of animal industry in
which government experts will
have place. The resolution re-
ferring to this says;
"Whereas, The meat industry
in South Georgia is taking on
tremendous proportions and if
same is TO reach Its highest effici-
ency it must be taken in hand and
intelligentlY directed; therefore,

BUDGET FOR THE CITY
MORE THAN MILLION
This Is Increase of $4,000 Over the
Expenditures for the Pre-
ceding Year

With only one or two lesser depart
ments to be heard from, the total
budget estimates for 1914, on file with
the city auditor, amount to $I,07S,527.
which is an increase OF nearly 100000
over the expenditures during 1913 for
the same departments, and slight de-
crease as compared to the budget ap-
preparations made for 1918.
The city auditor expects to complete
a budget statement within the next few
days for submission TO the commission
as budget committee, This statement
will show the revenue of the city, esti.
mated, for the ensuing year, the esti-
mates of each department and the
amounts necessary for statutory and
special funds aside from departmental
funds,
The auditor determined Yesterday
that $250000, Approximately, must be
laid aside out OF this Years revenue,
before any other apportionment is made,
to meet improvements and expenses au-
thorized last year

INTEREST is SHOWN
IN JUVENILE COURT
Question Concerning the System Re-
ceived From Abroad as We'll as
at Home.

Utah's Juvenile court system is at
tracing attention from all parts Of
the world, judging from inquiries that
are pouring in on T.. J. Milne, secretary
Of the state juvenile court commission.
Within the last few days Mr.. Milne
has answered queries from France and
England and many letters from national
associations in America devoted to the
care of children.
II. S. Fullerton, secretary Of the Ma
tional Juvenile and Probation society,

law and a description of the methods
used here. He writes that he under

NO TRACE OF SUSPECT
DISCOVERED IN OGDEN

OGDEN, Jan. l6-Beleving that If
Otto Applequist, the supposed accom-
plice in the Morrison murders in Salt
Lake, was in Ogden since the tragedy
last Saturday night, he has long since
departed. the local police and sheriff s
force practically gave up their search
for the man today. The officers have
not been able to establish that the man
seen here last evening and suspected Of
having been the structural ironworker
was really the man wanted by the Salt
Lake police.
The local authorities are convinced
that if Hillstrom and Applequist are the
murderers of the Morrisons they are
also the men who held up and robbed
the Hanson saloon in this city on the
night of December II. The proprietor
and others in the saloon at the time
told the police Immediately after the
robbery that one of the thugs talked
with an accent which marked him as
either a Swede or Norwegian, The
general description of Applequjst tai.
lies with that of one of the Hanson
robbers, although the other man can
not be so nearly identified as Hill
strom.
Circulars issued by Chief of Police

picture and descri ption of Appleauist,
together with a notice of Governor
Spry's reward offer, were received by

SIXTY-THREE MEN ARE.
GIVEN EMPLOYMENT
City Water Department Begins Lower.
ing Of Mains ON Northeast Bench;
Other Work Con ntemplated.

Sixty three men of families were put
to work by the water department yester-
day lowering water mains on the north
east bench in connection with curb and
gutter extension No, 20.
These mains were to have been low
cred later in the year. but in view of
the unemployed men now in the city,
it was deemed the part of wisdom to
proceed with the work at once, even
though it does cost the city a little
more.
W. II. Shearman, water commissioner,
who recommended the providing Of en-
ploymeut for heads Of families who are
out Of work, and G.. f. Barrett, the wa
ter superintendent, yesterday made a
trip of inspection over the district
where the work is being done
Every man put to work yesterday is
n man of family, the water department
having enforced this discrimination TO
the letter.
AS soon as the necessary pipe is on
hand, the department will take up half
II dozen small water extensions that
have been authorized. More men will
be given employment then.

RESERVOIR FOR ROUND
VALLEY IS PROPOSED
City Engineer Considers Plans
for Changing Proposed
Water Storage Facilities.

Substitution Of distributing reser-
voir in Little Round valley where the
high line pipe comes over the northern
hills from City creek in place Of the
reservoir at the old Highline, is being
considered by the city commission in
the water improvements contemplated
under the call for bond election.
Little Round valley is Il natural de-
preston In the hills about on a line
due north from II street. The high line
supply pipo climbs up the canyon side
out Of City creek, crosses this valley
and comes down into tho city. The
plan TO build reservoir in the valley
may be recommended by Sylvester Q.
Cannon, city engineer, as superior TO
the proposed reservoir in the canyon
Mr., Cannon said yesterday that while
the cost would be considerably more,
the storage would be greater in pro-
portion and in several other ways more
advantage would accrue to the water
system from the reservoir in Round val
ley than from the one proposed in the
canyon.
The cost Of the Round valley reser-
voir, as computed in the engineer Is re.
port on water, would be about SS4 900
and storage of about 40000.00 gal
Ions would be obtained. The reservoir
in the canyon would cost So, 900 and
would store only 100000 gallons. In
creased storage would not be the only
advantage, however. The pressure on
the high line Mt the bottom of the can
yon before it begins TO climb the noun.
tain side to come over the hills, would
be relieved. Also, with the water in
storage in the hills directly above the
city, the pressure could be regulated to
more advantage.
In the reservoir in Round valley, with
| consequent damage to the city, rs the
natural depression is such that nothing
but very small dam would have to be
built at the rim of the valley. The
chief cost would be in cementiug the
sides and bottom Of the valley.

PIPE SPECIFICATIONS
ARE TO BE ADOPTED
City Commission Will Meet in Special
Session to Take Action as to
Water Mains,

The city commission will hold a spe
cial meeting this morning to approve a
standard specification governing water
mains purchased by the city. The water
department is desirous of purchasing
$40, 900 worth of east iron pipe imme2
dlately IN order to begin work on va
rious extensions authorized.
Heretofore the city has never had n
standard specification for wafer pipes,
though with the advent of w III. Shear,
man as water commissioner set has
been drafted and viii be used from now
on. Mr.. Shearman called the specjal
meeting for today in order to facilitate
the purchase. of the necessary pipe.
Inc specifications 10 be adopted are
drafted after the standard maintained
by the American Water Pipe compnnv
They are such that all companies. east
or west. will have equal opportunity TO
enter bids on pipe used BY the city.
