RESULT OF PRIMARY WILL
OCTOBER THIRD

Atlanta, Ga. September 20.-All
arrangements for the holding of the
Democratic state convention to de-
olare the results of the recent pri-

Atlanta by the executive of sub-com-
mittee of the Democratic state com

be called to order at 10 o'clock on the
morning of Thursday, October 3.
The delegates to represent the vari-
Gus counties will be named by Cover

AS compared with previous state
conventions, the one this year will
be tame affair, inasmuch as it
has no authority of it's own to make
nominations, but merely declares the
result of the primary as registered by
the voters at the ballot box. Governor
Dorsey and William j. Harris are in
vited to be present and will doubt
less attend Mr.. Harris is now in
Washington looking after the in
terests of southern farmers in the
matter of cotton price-fixing, having
given up much-needed vacation af-
ter the strenuous labors of his cam
paign for the Senate.

YOU MAY NOW PURCHASE
SUGAR FOR TWO WEEKS

Atlanta, Sept 21-Instead of linn
iting sugar purchases to two pounds
at time, the United States Food Adj
ministration has changed the regula-
lions so as to permit the purchase of
supply sufficient to last two weeks.
For example: If you are entitled to
ten pounds of sugar per month, you
are not required to make five separate
purchases of two pounds each, but
you may purchase five pounds today
to run you two weeks, and then you
may purchase another five pounds to
run you another two weeks.

EGG DEALERS KICKING.

New \ Iork, Feb. 25-Dealers in storage
eggs regard with considerable apprehcn-
sion the tentative regulations in which the
| nItCd States Food Administration has
recently undertaken TO fix the maximum
profit upon storage eggs at no more than
> per cent beyond the original cost plus
storage, interest and insurance charges
Without protesting against any measure
that the United States Food Admins
tration has seen fit to adopt for the pro-
lection of the country food supply during
the present crisis, the dealers In storage
eggs look upon the restriction TO a ; per
cent profit rs detrimental 10 public in
tercst, because, in their opinion, it will
have the effect OF discouraging con-
siderable part of the trade from handling
eggs for storage.
In the fall and winter months of the
wear. when the greater part of the COM
nunIty depends almost entirely upon the
storage product, storage egg, the dealers
argue, will be exceedingly scarce, and
fresh eggs will rise 10 a price abnormally
high, unImpedcd by the Food Admins
