OPENING The ORIENT

A VAST STOREHOUSE RICH in

is MADE ACCESSIBLE
CENTRAL POWERS PRESSED

The Most Important Feature of the
Accomplishment Is the Bringing
OF the TeutOnic Armies Into Easy
Access of Supplies.
WASHINGTON, D. C.-With the
conquest and opening up of the con-
Meeting link in the Orient railway
between Belgrade and Sofia by the
Teutonic and Bulgarian allies vast
stOrehouse rich in much needed raw
materials has been made accessible
for the supply of the hard-pressed
central powers. Probably the most
important feature of this accomplish
ment is the bringing of the Austro-
Hungarian and German nations into
communication with lands where are
found minerals and products of agrl-
culture in abundance; though the
control of the Orient railway also en-
ables the remunitiOning of Turkey
and the transportation of German
troops to territories threateningly
near the Suez canal A sketch of
the stores of Asia Minor, or Anato-
liza, upon which the Germans will
now be able to draw, is contained in

Geographic Society. The bulletin

MAGAZINE DEALERS
TROUBLES DOUBLED
Law Prohibiting Advertising Whisky
May Cause Booksellers to Cut
Out the advertisements.

COLUMBUS, Ga.-"The prohibi-
tionists have passed their laws in the
Georgia Legislature, and it is now on
~ matter of time before they will
go into effect" stated a magazine
dealer Thursday morning, "and with
the law there are one or two features
which have been discussed pro and
con and one of them which will cause
me a great deal of trouble"
Laments the Fact.
The man was lamenting the fact
that the law said that no public print
within the state shall be sold carry
ing an advertisement of liquors. This
hit the newspapers themselves harder
than did any other medium of adver-
Using, but they have not raised a
howl, for they believe, on the whole,
in prohibition.
The point made by this newsdealer
was that the big magazines and news
papers received here, such as Cosmo-
politan, Munsey's, Popular and daily
papers of New York, Chicago, etc,
and others that might carry liquor
ads cannot be sold within the state
with the ad in it. In view of the fact
that these big magazines and newspa-
pers cannot print special editions for
Georgia and Alabama, but that the
issue sent to all the world must be
sent here, it brings about rather
difficult proposition.
All Magazines Barred.
at simply MEANS" stated this
newsdealer, that every one of the
magazines and newspapers will have
to be gone over and the whiskey ads
torn from them, and a person can
readily see that with the thousands
of magazines and newspapers sold
each week that some little job is to
be laid out for somebody"

great. This wealth, however, is large
ly of the potential kind, for, except
in limited areas, agriculture is car
ried on according to primitive meth
DDS, while, for the most part, the min
eral stores have been left untouched.
Among the minerals known to exist
in considerable quantities are iron,
copper, nickle, lead, manganese, sill
Yer, sulphur, coal, anthony, emery,
gold, zinc, alum, asbestos, and
number of others
Wheat, corn and barley are grown
in large quantities in Asia Minor,
and in normal times much of the sur
plus barley has been exported to
Great Britain, where it has been used
for brewing. There is a considera-
BILE surplus of wheat, which should
relieve the reported meal scarcity in
the mills of the central powers. The
west coast of Asia Minor is noted for
the fruits that ripen in it's Mediterra-
mean climate. Here are grown an
important part of the worlds raisin
crop. olives and figs also thrive
along the Aegean coast. Where hot
summers swelter over the northern
coast some of the finest Turkish to-
bacco is raised, which in all likeli-
hood is now a rare luxury among
German smokers. A sort of tobacco
is grown in Germany, pale, insipid,
unfragrant leaf, which bears little
resemblance to the rich tobacco OF
America Turkey and the East Indies.
Great quantities of hazel nuts are
among the exports of this area, and
cotton, another staple which the Ger
mans are said to be greatly in need
of, is grown in the districts of Kas-
saba and Adm in the west, and on
the Cicilian plain in the southeast.
"All through Turkey in Asia there
has been but little accomplished to-
ward building up manufacturing in
dustry. Olive oil soap is extensively
manufactured at Smyrna; carpets are
woven in various places; leather is
produced, and cigarettes are made in
large numbers. In Syria there are
| important weaving, dyeing and can
ming industries at Aleppo and Ain
tab, and there is some small manu-
facture in Mesopotamia.
1.-The principal exports of Asia Mi
nor are raisins, tobacco, figs, barley,
wool hides, cotton and skins. Owing
| to the backward organization of the
country it is difficult to assign any
values to the annual exports of these
articles, which would be worth con-
sidering. The leading exports of Syr-
ia include lemons, oranges, sesame,
soap and silk, while Mesopotamia eX-
ports large quantities of dates, wool,
| barley, wheat and opium.
'fThe climate of Syria is of the ex-
| IRENE Mediterranean type, and most
of tn esoil is fertile. In great part,
| however, it remains unworked. SILK
worms are raised in many parts OF
the land, and before the wars out
break most of the silk was sent for
manufacture to Lyon, France. Some
silk is spun in Syria. Cotton is an
important crop around Idlib and
surplus grain crop is raised. Much OF
once fertile Mesopotamia is now des-
ert. The old irrigation systems have
| fallen to decay, and where forty CEN
turtles ago the land was fruitful to-
day is merely WaStage,'

THIS GEORGIA FARMER is
SOME GROWER OF POTATOES
North Georgia Editor Presented With
Fourteen That Made a Bushel.


The Louvania Times says that Mr..
c. w. Farr presented it with fourteen
potatoes that weighed an even bush
Ell. These potatoes were mixed, but
for the greater part were of the Nan
cy Hall variety. Mr.. Farr grew pota-
toes last year so large that thirteen
made bushel. He says the Germans
cut him off on potash this year, and
caused him to have to lay on the
extra potato to get bushel. His
crop is fine this year, however; in
fact, he is in about the same shape
with his potato crop as the legendary
Carter was with his oat crop.
