URGES FARMERS
TO HOLD THEIR COTTON
Senator Says They Should De-
mand 20 Cents a Pound
for Staple

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22.-Cotton
raisers Of the south were urged by Sem
ator Ransdell. Of Louisiana. in a speech
today in the senate, to hold out for fair
and Legitimate" prices and not to sell
for less than % cents a pound. Present
prices, he declared, are absolutely I'M
warranted, caused largely by a rush Of
offerings because of the embargo.
Statistics were presented BY the
Louisiana senator in support of the
content that the actual purchasing
power of cotton is much lower than Of
other products which have advanced in
price. He also declared the south was
never in better position to hold its cot
ton for fair price.
MY advice" he said, rs for the cot
ton growers. the commission merchants
and dealers in cotton, and the bankers
in the southern states to CO. operate and
work together IN order to secure fair
and legitimate price for cotton They
should make UP their minds that to sell
cotton at the present time for less than
20 cents per pound would be an I'M
necessary sacrifice. They should, with
out excitement or flare of trumpets, or
unlawful combinations to restrain trade,
each and everyone in his own way, do
his bit towards seeing that the south
is not robbed Of at least $50 per bale
on It's cotton Dy selling at ~ cenlS-a
colossal sum amounting in the aggre-
gate to s312,5OO.0 900.
THE farmer can aid by storing his
cotton at home when it is ginned, or in
warehouses by shipping it slowly in
small quantities, and by refusing posi-
lively to sell unless a satisfactory price
Is offered. He should not seek buyers.
The old way was for the buyer to fix
the price; but the seller should do so
with this crop.
The merchant who has made adj
vances on the cotton can assist by ex-
tending payment of the debts due him,
either wholly or partially; by aiding
the grower to borrow 75 per cent of the
value OF his cotton. estimated at %
cents per pound, and by counselling the
producers to stand firm in demanding a
just price

Mr.. ADAMSON IS HONORED
IN SENATE CONFIRMATION
High DeIiberative Body Acts
in Open Session Without
Committee Reference
By RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-The United
States senate paid a signal tribute to
Congressman w c. Adamson of the
when, in open executive session, they
confirmed his nomination for mem
bership of the board of merchandise
appraisers for the port of New York.
Favorable action was taken on the nomi-
nation without the usual formality Of
reference to a committee.
The motion to confirm Judge Adam
sons nomination in open session. with
out committee reference, was made by
Senator Simmons of North Carolina.
chairman of the finance committee, act
ing at the instance of Senator Hoke
Smith, also a member of the commit
tee, but detained at his home by the
illness of his wife. The Georgia sena-
tor suggested that the confirmation of
the Georgia congressman for the high
office by unanimous consent of the SEN
ate, would be entirely fitting and proper
in view of the nominees long and faith

house
Judge Adamson will not qualify for
the New York appointment until after
his resignation from congress. and this
will be deferred until after the Christ
mas holidays. President Wilson am
Secretary McAdoo are anxious that h'|
remain in congress throughout the pres
ent session, so that the administration
may have the benefit of his advice and
aid in a number of important pieces o.
legislation that are still in the process;
of enactment. Chief among these l.:
the soldier and sailor insurance bill.

Cotton Picking Machine May
ReUOLutlOn5ze the Industry

picking device, which picks the cotton
by friction of revolving brushes and
conveys it to the fan and then into the
basket by suction Once the cotton en-
tiers the picker IT never returns and
there Is no clogging. 1t goes straight
through the hose to the fan and then
is blown out of a periscope-looking ar
rangement into the basket. The pocket
is square and made of wire netting and
holds about eighty pounds. As the cot
ton is blown into this basket II strikes
the farthest side and such dirt as may
have been attched to II is blown on
through the netting. The cotton, there
fore. falls into the basket perfectly
clean.
When the picker has been through a
patch there is no cotton in sight. not
even on the ground. Storm cotton that
the hand pickers would leave Is thrust
into the machine and it energies as free
from dirt as that which comes direct
from the boil
The entire machine weights about 250
pounds and is light enough for boy 70
pull around.
For two weeks the Stukenborgs, Mr.
wegerly and n. A. Thiel, of Hammond
Ind. who will be general manager Of
the manufacturing plant have been on
the Clay plantation in Sumter county
secretly testing out the picker. Cliff
Clay, who will be one of the stockhold-
ars Of the company, has been with them
for several days.
Though thoroughly cognizant of the
fact that he has perfected an invention
which will revolutionize the cotton in
dustry and protect the south against
future scarcity of labor, young Mr. Stuk-
enborg is as modest as a girl.
Mr.. Clay was in Chicago recently and
by accident heard of the cotton picking
machine. When II was shown to him he
declared emphatically that II would be
a great success. He invited the in
ventor to make the final test on his
mothers farm place in Sumter county
and the invitation was accepted There
has been no publicity whatever attached
to the long dream the Stukenborgs have
had. Not even their best friends knew
on what device Carroll Stukenborg was
working so industriously. They were
afraid Of another failure but now that
the cotton picker is considered an abso-
lutte success they want the world 20
know It,
The machine will be manufactured in
the south. with Atlanta as headquarters.
1t will sell for 1925. With two picking
attachments to the machine, the price
will be $3.50 There are no delicate
parts to get out of order and all can
be readily replaced. It is estimated
that depreciation from wear and tear
will not be over So a year. Every part
of the machine has been patented and al
ready the Stukenborgs have refused an
offer of 100000 for half interest in
the project.
They are going to finance their own
company, the stockholders being limited
in number.

FORCES
GET BEST OF OWL
INVADING GORDON
It Takes Chief of Staff, DiviS-
ion Adjutant and Two Order
lies to Dust Colonel Browns
Visitor

ATLANTA JOURNAL BUREAU,
CAMP GORDON, Ga, Sept. 22-The
story of the effrontery of Georgia
owl. of it's midnight invasion of the sa-
cred office of the chief of staff of the
Eighty-second division, and the excite
ment it caused, has spread from Can
dler road to Peachtree road, and to all
corners of the cantonment, and II is
worth recording in detail.
As everyone at the cantonment knows,
Lieutenant Colonel Preston Brown is a
big man, but that didn't make any diff
ference to the owl
While the colonel was knitting mis-
brow the other night over knotty prob
lens pertaining to the welfare of the
national army, the owl, unlike Poe's
raven, came in the window without word
or warning. Many privates would have
doubted the wisdom of such move
The owl was a screech owl "a sullen,
silent owl: ii was an owl that entered
no treaties and contracted no friend
ships; it was distinctly a militarlst, and
eyed the chief Of staff Indignantly.
Colonel Brown also eyed the owl
Then he got up and summoned Major
Thompson, the division adjutant, and
Major Thompson SUNNI oned an orderly
and the orderly summoned another or
derby and a combat ensued.
Out Of all fairness 10 the owl it must
be said that he fought valiantly and
did his utmost to hold his own, but the
superior forces, combined with the mill
tary minds OF the chief of staff and the
adjutant. finally resulted in his down.
fall, and he flew out through the open
window. leaving behind a victorious but
perspiring chief of staff, painting adj
jutant and a pair of excited orderlies.
Colonel Brown went back to his knotty
problems; Major Thompson went back
to his oak desk and the screech owl
went back to his tree.
The colonel and the adjutant OH the
following day took the matter up with
Major General Swift, who, in turn, call
ed in Lieutenant Colonel Taylor, judge
advocate, for an extended conference.
After due consideration, Colonel Tay-
lor handed down a decision that the owl
came to the little grove on the hill be-
fore the headquarters of the Eighty
second division was established there
and that the owl should not be court
martialed or subjected to punishment of
any kind. Colonel Taylor advised, how
ever, that Colonel Brown keep his win
dows closed in the future.
The little engagement with friend owl
goes down on the records as the first
skirmish at Camp Gordon.
