dent Wilson and when the big cele.
bration of the Presidents re-elec-
ton was held here two weeks AGO,

erence to his close resemblance to
the president which brought ap-
plause from the large crowd

GEORGIA FRUIT EXCHANGE
SOLVES GROWERS PROBLEMS

Atlanta. Ga, Nov 20.-What is
believed to be a long stride toward
the solution of the marketing prob
lem involved in the diversification
of crops by farmers of Georgia and
southern states generally is the
plan of the Georgia Fruit Exchange
which has just been announced, to
extend its service to all perishable
farm products moving in carload
lots
Heretofore the exchang has
only handled Georgia peaches, to-
gether with some water melons and
cantaloupes, and has rendered in
valuable service in directing ship
ments to cities where the local mar
kets We're not already overloaded
and where prices were consequently
high Without some such central
agency, constantly in touch with d.
cal market conditions in the large
cities OF the east and north, peach
growers would be forced to ship at
random and take their chances on
good prices
Indentically the same service rem
dered in the past to growers of
peaches, water melons and canta-
loupes will be rendered in the flu
ture to growers of all perishabla
farm products who ship in large
quantities. the plan of the new ser
vice having been worked out in CO.
operation with the State Depart
mant OF Entomology.

girl?"
She smiled brightly and replied:

Wealth Of French Forsets.

Paris May "A An inventory OF
forest trees from which may be de
rived extracts suitable for the manu-
facmc Of dyes has just been made by
ne agricultural department The tree
that abounds the most In France in
coloring properties is the black oak,
but there are some yellow oaks whose
extract is considered even more val
nable tnan that of the black oak
France Is also quite rich in the white
walnut which gives different shades
of brown color and the extract of
which. It is recalled was used to dye
the uniforms of the soldiers from
Tennessee and Kentucky in the War
of Secession. Il is thought that by

compare with the American forests in
