The Land Shop and It's Meaning.

Land is rightly considered the essential source
of all wealth. From it is evolved in some form
food, raiment and shelter--the three great requi-
sites of life. Everything else but establishment
and enhancement of these Mans instinct for the
land and love for it, therefore, as the edict
of nature. He finds health there, he finds wealth
there he finds happiness there. The desire to own
land is failing, and ownership brings with it
a certain pride beyond that of other possessions
These facts account in large measure for the
great interest already aroused by merely tie pre-
nminary announcements of the Southeastern Land
show to be held here at the Auditorium from Feb
ruary 1 to Is. There may be shows of this and
shows of that, which afford interest and even great

cource still remains its land, unused land waiting
only the energizing touch of capital and labor to
respond in hundredfold and add to the wealth of
the owner and to the progress of the section.
What is in the states comprising the southeast
and what can be done here has not yet been ade-
quateIy told the world. Money and population have
not flowed here commensurate with the resources
of this great section and the is that they
have been attracted away by the better advertising
but not the better opportunities of other parts of
the country.
The state of California stands an example of
a state of wonderful attractions wonderfully pre-
sented TO the world And small factor in this
presentation have been the land shows held at
San Francisco which for period of thirty years
have served show windows for the greatness of

Buffalo Bill.

The passing of William Frederick Cody at
Denver, Colorado, removes an interesting and
picturesque figure in American history. A link he
has gone to return more. His life was full of
attention. 1t seems, indeed, particularly to en-
dear itself to the American mind. Colonel Cody's
hold upon the imagination of Americans, young
and old, lay in the fact that he typifed to them
the endurance the daring and the resourcefuIness
of the pioneer settlers of this country as they
moved slowly westward to the Pacifc-the drama
of our national life unmatched for thrills
In 1867 when the Kansas Pacific railway was
being constructed across the western plains and
buffaloes then were numerous he entered into con-
tract to supply the laborers engaged in this great
undertaking with buffalo meat. 1t is stated that
within eighteen months he had killed for the road

Tariff by Commission.

That the tariff often raised. often lowered-the
subject of never ending controversy between the
two principal political parties about to enter
new phase is brought mind by the recent appoint
ment by President Wilson of Professor Frank w.
Taussig head of the department of economics at
Harvard university, the tariff commission created
at the last session of congress.
Tariffs in the past have been raised too often at
the dictation Of the interests that the raise would
most benefit without consideration of the consumer
public Tariffs in the past have been lowered too
often without the exact knowledge of the conditions
affected The tariff in other words seems to have
been the football of partisan politics in its most
partisan manifestations. One of the chief things
about the new tariff commission is thar it is to be
nonpartisan and from a nonpartisan viewpoint
will study trade conditions and tendencies here
and abroad, the cost of production and raw mate
riaIs in other words the whole subject of manufac-
turing and marketing in its world aspects and out
of this study and investigation will submit reports
upon which tariff changes can be made with justice
to producer and consumer alike
That the appointment of Professor Taussg, who
will likely be chairman of the commission, is in &C
cordance with this large purpose of the commission
is evident from the comment of such influential in
dependent dailies as the New York Evening Post
and the Springfield Republican.

tariff will adequately demonstrate His high.

The Shippers Meeting at Macon

The shippers of Georgia have been called to
conference at Macon January II by w. C. We
reen, president the Georgia Shippers association
Not only are the members of the association wanted
for this meeting but every one who sends or re-
ceves freight by rail in Georgia. The conference is
for the purpose of drawing more specific plans for
opposition to the hamperng increases of intrastate
freight rates proposed by the railroads of this
State.
BY extensive and expert investigation, the ship
pers have arrived at the figures which show the
harmful effect the proposed rate increases will have
the business only of Industrial and CONNER
cial enterprises but of individuals well. These
figures and the results that will flow from them
will be presented the meeting and effective means
for preventing this unnecessary burden the pro-
ducers of Georgia will be sought
The deeper the shippers go into the subject of
the raises desired by the roads freight transpor
taon, within the borders of this state the greater
is their amazement that the roads should in effect
purpose to put a throttling hand upon the rising
movement for home enterprises and home products.
The intrastate increases such intended by the
roads constitute nothing other than an unwarranted
tax on the business between Georgia citizens and be-
tween Georgia manufacturing enterprises and
Georgia individuals and firms who would patron
ize them and who in turn would be patronized by
the manufactures In the purchase of raw ma
terials.
The whole state through the work of public
spirited men and organizations is aroused on the
subject of Georgia products. Georgia capital and
Georgia brains have brought packing houses and
orchards and hundreds of other varied enterprises
to admirable degree of service and efficiency
Stock. and cattle raising has been encouraged.
Many forms of diversified farming have shown the
way to relief from the ancient one-crop system
and have effected preparedness against the coming
of the boil weeyil It is against having the way
of this hard-won advance barred by excessive
freight rates that the shippers of this state are
now battling.
In the light of these things the meeting at
Macon assumes especial importance. 1t should
have large and representative attendance and its
best brain ano energy should be devoted to an adj
ditional strong showing before the state railroad
commission against the proposed freight increases.

Freeing the South'S
Lipe Stock Resources.

Field workers and officials of the federal Bureau
of Animal Husbandry are assembled in Atlanta
for a conference that is OF cardinal Importance to
Georgia and the entire South. The purpose of the
meeting is to plan a campaign to eradicate the
cattle !ick from four hundred and nineteen thou
sand square miles Of territory now under quaran-
tine
This undertaking is deeply significant not only
to persons directly engaged in cattle raising, but
also to owners of land that is disable for stock farms
or ranches 1t is significant, indeed, to every mate
rial interest of the State and the section because
in the development of live stock industries lies
of the main sources of the South's enrichment and
upbuiIding The eradication of the cattle tick will
remove the last kerious obstacle to the extensive
development of those Industries in this region.
A decade ago more than seven hundred and
twenty-eighr thousand square miles under fed
eraI quarantine because of tick infection. Under
such conditions progress in cattle raising we'll
nigh impossible. But through the cooperative
efforts of the National and State Departments of
Agriculture some three hundred and nine thousand
SQUARE miles of this territory has been freed en-
tireIy and the task of freeing the remainder rem
dered comparatively simple.
It is matter of record that within the past
FIVE years after the work of combating the tick
was fully under way, the South has made greater
progress in the cattle industry than in all the fifty
years preceding Further, according to recent
bulletin from the federal Department of Agricul-
ture, there has been more progress in the South
during A-a past five years than in any other sec
ton
Evidently. then. when this pest is wiped out,
as it certainly will be through continued cOOpera-
