PLANS COMPLETED'LEAsE Commission
FOR CONFERENCE lis CREATED Fob. ".
HELD At C0RDELE AND A. RAILROAD

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 2O.-A bill Gre
ating commission of three men to
execute a new lease for the Western
and Atlantic railroad was passed by
the house of representatives late Fri
day afternoon.
The bill passed by the house is the
one that was prepared by the Western
and Atlantic committee of the house,
but the house amended the committees
bill so as to conform to the advice OF
" A. Wimbish, Hooper Alexander and
c. Murphy Gambler, as presented by
them in addresses which they deliver
to the house Thursday afternoon.
The committees bill provided for a
commission consisting of the governor,
the chairman of the railroad commits
SION, two members of the senate, three
members of the house and Two citizens,
making nine in all
The house cut the commission down
to the governor, the chairman of the
railroad commission and one citizen
to be named by them jointly, making a
commission of three.
The committees bill fixed $4,000
FER month as the minimum price at
Y hich the commission should lease the
rad. The house struck out this fig
uTe, and left the rental entirely to the
discretion of the commission.
The committees bill directed the
commission to require the elssee to
pay taxes on the road to the counties
through which it runs. The house am
ended this section so as to permit, but
Lot direct, the commission to require
such payment by the lease.
These three changes are in accord
ance with the advise of each of the
gentlemen named above, who are con,
sidered the three best informed men
on the Western and Atlantic railroad
in the state.
The committees bill fixed fifty years
as teh maximum term for which the
new lease shall run. The house did
not change this, as Mr. Wimbish and
MIR. Gambler advised long leases, al
though in this respect Mr.. Alexander
differed from them and advised lease
of not more than twenty-five years.
The bill passed by the house is diff
ferent in several essential particulars
from the bill which passed the senate
few days ago.
The house, after passing the bill, ad-
journed until Monday morning at II
o'clock.

NOW IS SERIOUS
TINE IN ORCHARD
Blight is Becoming More Active
Than it Was a Few Weeks
Ago, Says Inspector

This is serious time. OPP until
about two weeks ago the blight had
been more or less dormant. Many
growers have felt because Of this con.
dition existing, that it was not neces-
sary to cut it at this time, as they
were very busy and that they could
cut it later and get just as good re-
suits.
Observations made in the orchards
the past week show that the blight is
becoming very active again and that
unless the ranchers do something to
check it, much danger will be done be.
tween now and fall.
There are four things that every
grower should note at this time, es-
pecially if he has not kept his orchard
clean of the blight: j. e.
First-Your trees are putting on q
new growth at this time.
Second-The fresh exudate is pour
ing out through the affected bark Of
the blighted portions.
Third-The aphis and ants are Wis

Ant. Ar, s;x cared.

In the matter Of some Of their sense
organs the ants are more than ordi-
narily endowed. Strange az It may
seem. each ant has at least six ears.
Aside from this multiplicity Of ears,
they are located in just about the
queerest place imaginable-on the legs.
They seem deaf to all sounds made by
the vibration of the air. but detect the
slightest possible vibrations Of solid
material. This is supposed to be to
their advantage In that such things as
approaching footsteps tell more of the
possibility OF danger than such sounds
as are transmitted through the air. So
sensitive are their feet that they de-
tect the impact of small bird shot
dropped on the table from a height of
about six inches and about fourteen
feet distant from an artificial nest

THE UNIVERSE.
Our Own Stellar System and What
May Be Beyond Il.

Our Own stellar System and What
May Be Beyond II.
In one of the latest conceptions Of
astronomers the stellar universe has a
diameter Of 10000 to $1,000 light years.
with q thickness of 1900 to 1900, and
our sun has a place little removed
from the center. 1t embraces 10000
600 to 5O,OOO.OOO stars within the range
of telescope visibility, with dark and
Invisible bodies whose number cannot
be computed.
So far as can be determined the stars
are surprisingly uniform In mass, the
range OF variation being not more than
fiftyfold. but In density the range Is
from more than twice that of the sun
to only one-millionth and In absolute
luminosity or brightness from 5000
times that of the sun to about one
hree-thousandth. The temperature
rises from near absolute zero in the
nebulae to 10000 degrees c. in certain
giant hot stars.
It Is suggested that our universe may
be not the only one and that the small
Magellanic cloud. for instance. per-
haps 10000 light years distant. may be
Z relatively small universe Of about
1000 light years In diameter.

Recommendations


Recommendation
Immediately after the last cutting
of hay is off go over the ground with
a spring tooth harrow. Seed in win
ter wheat at the rate Of 80 to 80
pounds per acre, depending on the
thickness of the stand Of alfalfa. II
not sown with drill harrow the grain
in with spike tooth or spring tooth
harrow.
Results
This grain being seeded in the fall
Immediately after the ground is har-
rowed, gets the start Of the cheat and
fills up the space between the alfalfa
plants. This method has the follow
ing advantages:
1. It keeps cheat out.
2. It very materially increases the
yield Of the first cutting Of hay.
8. It gives nearer a balanced hay
ration and more of variety than the
straight alfalfa.
It keeps tho first cutting Of ha,
from falling down as it generally
does.
The solution for the cheat problem
is beyond the experiment stage and is
coming into general use in Benton
county.
