sons for Trouble With Rail-
road Transportation.

Louisville, KY, Nov. 3.-The ap-
parent shortage of cars upon the
railroads of the country was declar-
ed to be the result of lack of eff
cheney in their distribution. by w
l.. Barnes, superintendent of trans
portation of the Chicago, Burlington
e Quincy railroad, here today. He
was one of the last witnesses to tes-
tify at an informal hearing on the al
legged shortage of cars being held by
c. c. McChord, member of the inter
state commerce commission.
1t was brought out that the rail.
roads now own approximately q
100000 cars and that the apparent
total shortage on all lines is only
about $4,000. Mr. Barnes gave il as
his opinion that much of this result
ed from shippers asking for more
cars than they need Any appararent
shortages resulting from other
causes, he said, could be met by q
more efficient distribution of the car
supply.
Mr.. Barnes in response to ques-
tions as to why the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy had failed to return
cars owned by by other roads, declar-
ed that system had been forced in
self defense to hold foreign cars and
would continue to do so until some
assurance was provided that their
own equipment would be returned.
More than $4,000 cars of all classes
belonging to the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy We're held on foreign
lines, he said, while that system held
approximately $4,000 cars belongina
to other lines.

heard today were: w. l.. Parks. vice
president of the Illinois Central: ].
IF. Poterfield of the same system. and
C. b. Phelps, superintendent or
transportation of the Louisville &

ments were also presented by repre-

DEATH IN EXPLOSION.

Batesburg, Nov. 3.-Wednesday
morning Eliza Corley, an industrious
negro woman living on the premises
of Mrs. Jabez Ferris, went to her
usual mornings work, leaving two
small children in her house. An
other negro girl living nearby went,
with smaller sister, to Eliza's
home. For some reason the larger
girl, who is about ten years old,
picked up can of gasoline and
threw ii on the fire. The smaller
children, who were sitting on the
floor before the fire, received the full
force of the explosion. They were
all horribly burned, while the girl
causing the trouble escaped with
slight hurts. One of the smaller
children died last night. The other
two will get well, it is thought. if
infection can be prevented.

PINK BOIL WORM

Menaces to American Indus
try Experts Report.

washington, Nov. 4.-The pink
boil worm, most destructive cotton
pest known, has appeared for the
hrst time in North America. The de-
partment of agriculture announce
To-Day that the worms had been dis
covered in northern Mexico, where
their presence, the department saws
IN an Official announcement, consti-
tutes one of the greatest menaces
which have come to the American in
dustry in it's history.
Importation from Mexico of cot
ton seed, cotton seed hulls and seed
cotton is prohibited under an order
issued late today.
officials Of the department were
unable to explain how the pink boil
worm happened to be imported to
North America. 1t is presumed.
however that the pest came in seed
imported to Mexico from abroad.
Discovery of the worm was an
nounced in the following statement:
The pink boil worm, the most
destructive of known pests of cotton,
mas been discovered in the Laguna
district, Coahuila, Mex. within 200
miles of the Texas border. Amend
ments to quarantine orders. and req
ulations, effective immediately. have
oeen promulgated by the secretary
OF agriculture, prohibiting the i'm
portation into the United States of
cotton seed. cotton seed hulls and
seed cotton from the territory in
Mexico from which shipments here
tofore have been permitted, and re-
curing that Mexican lint cotton de-
stined for the United States he i'm
ported through certain northern
ports remote from American cotton
fields.
The pink boil worm has not been

can continent heretofore. The nest
Is prevalent in practically all other
cotton producing regions of the
world, and in all sections where it
mas become established has caused
Widespread destruction. Its estab-
lishment in northern Mexico consti-
tutes one of the greatest menaces
which have come to the American
cotton growing industry in its his
tory.
Every possible precaution will be
taken to prevent the worms from
getting across the border. All cotton
interests are warned of the danger
which threatens the industry and are
urged to give the utmost assistance
to the federal authorities in prevent
ing any movement in violation of
these rules governing movement of
cotton seed, cotton seed hulls. seed
cotton, or cotton lint from Mexico
into the United States.

Agricultural and Industrial Show
for Both the Town and
Country Folk.
AN EXCHANGE FOR new IDEAS
Besides, It Appeals to All Of us Who
Want to Be Amused While We're
learnino-cIoser Touch With
Home Lives Of Neishbors.

The fair Is an educational clearing
house. 1t is an agricultural and in
dustrial institute for residents Of both
town and country. 1t is a short course
In better farming and better living. It
II a physical demonstration of why the
man who farms with his head instead
Of with his hands must inevitably sue
ceed.
1t is a comprehensive exhibition Of
what the ambitious boy or girl may
achieves In agriculture. livestock rails
ing, dairying, horticultural, home, gar
dening, domestic science or household
economy. 1t Is an exposition Of the
marvellous Improvement in farm ma
chinery and agricultural implements
1t Is an object lesson In the great
part which improved machinery plays
In the development and cultivation of
the farm and the increased prosperity
Of the farmer.
Look for Yourself.
The chief educational value of our
fair lies in the fact t'at 1T is demon
strative In character. The eye is a
more convincing instructor than the
ear. We are slow to accept and be-
neve in any new method until we have
had optical proof of its superiority
over the old.
Often it is difficult to secure the at
tention of the busy man or woman long
enough to give such n demonstration.
Not infrequently 1T happens that farm
ers who would be most benefited by
better methods Of farming are not suf-
hciently Interested to be present at
any special meeting called for the pur-
pose Of discussing the subject.
But the fair appeals to that trait of
mankind which demands entertainment
and amusement and becomes a COM
mon forum for the discussion Of all
matters having to do with agriculture,
industry, the home and the school.
In this clearing house of education
the farmer learns what the manufac-
turer the merchant and the banker are
and have been doing to make his Ia
Dor less arduous and his farm more
profitable and the town resident learns
what rapid progress is being made in

both town and country.
Value TO Everybody.
The farmer learns by actual obser-
walton of the newest devices and i'm
provements In agricultural imple-
ments. He learns their use and bene-
fits. He learns In what way they
assist in soil cultivation, In plant
growth, In sowing, in harvesting, In
threshing. He learns the economic
value Of the more modern machinery,
Of the silo, Of motor power on the
farm.
The urban dweller IL furnished q
vivid picture Of the agricultural re-
sources Of the community. He learns
about the fertility Of the soil In tho
vicinity; Of what is being done to in
crease the farm yield; to improve the
quality Of the stock, and to multiply
the total dairy product. -
Every man and woman, whether
town or country resident, is brought
into closer touch with the home life
OF others. All imbibe that broader
education which means cooperation
that ideal education which is service
to self and all humanity.
