new WAR TAX MAY
EVEN HIT THE TABLE
HOUSE MEMBERS ARE CONSID
ERING A LEVY ON COFFEE,
TEA AND SUGAR.

Members of the house WAYS and
means committee, who are wrestling
with the problem of securing suffi-
cient revenue for the successful pros
ecution of the war against Germany,
propose that a tax shall be levied on
sugar, coffee and tea. The suggestion
comes from those members of the
committee who feel that labor now
should contribute its equitable share
toward financing the government dur
ing the war. They assert that the
average laboring man is deriving a
greater percentage of benefit from
the war than the great corporations
and big capitalists. This consumption
tax, it is held, would yield more than
$500, 100000.
The exemptions on clothing may be
reduced to $50 for suits for men, and
$40 for suits for women, thus requir-
ing tax of 20 per cent. on all funds
invested in excess of these amounts.
The lowering of the exemptions, it is
maintained, would extend the burden
of taxation. A tax of ten per cent.
will be levied on jewelry. This will
be increased from time to time to so
per cent, when the trade is able to
bear the burden. Soft drinks may
be taxed so as to yield $3.50, 1000
In some quarters it is proposed to
levy tax of 16 cents a gallon. The
tax now is one cent.

TWO OF MOST INTERESTING
OF NEW GEORGIA LAWS
The Work-or-Fight and the Anti-Tip-
ping Measures Attract Attention.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Following the
passage of the ''work-or-fght" law
at the session of the legislature just
closed, Georgia is preparing to elm
mate for good the vagrant and the
tramp and others who refuse to
work In various other states where
that law has become operative the
result has been that the floating class
of idlers has been drawn into the in
dustrial life of the state.
For a time it looked as though
Georgia's law would not pass because
of disagreements on amendments, but
it finally pulled through, though de-
prived of a part of its force in that
the clause making it applicable to
women was taken out.
There is much speculation in the
state as to whether or not the travel
ing public will have the courage, in
the face of long custom to put into
effect the anti-tipping bill passed at
this session. This prohibits the Civ
ing of gratuities in places of public
service.

LOAN DRIVE NOW PLANNED
FOLLOWED BY TWO OTHERS
Will seek to Raise $4,000, OOO, 900
For War and to Finance Allies.

Tentative treasury department
plans provide for three liberty loan
campaigns within the next year, each
to raise $5,O00,OO0,O0O or more. The
First one will be from Sept. 28th to
Oct. 10, 1918, as has been announc-
ed, the following one will be con-
Quoted in January or February and
the thir one in May or June. This
prograT0e he necessary, it is ex-
planned, 0laa. he $16,000,000,-
OOO which oh.tF re will be
needed to finance We dur
ing the year, in addition
600, 100000 which may be pro, /
by the new revenue bill.
If government expenses and loans
to the allies fall much below the
S24,000,000,000 estimate the govern
ment is expected to try to combine
the two loans into one big campaign
for the largest credit ever sought by
any nation. If so the campaign will
take place some time late in the win
ter.

GOOD RESULTS FROM
BOIL WEEVIL FIGHT
EXPERIMENTS BEING CONDUCT
ED IN GEORGIA SHOW EX-
CELLENT RESULTS.

VALDOSTA, Ga.-Work which
shows the greatest value to the fu-
ture of the cotton. production in
Georgia is now being carried on I'M
der the direction of the state board
of entomology at the state experiment
farm in this city, as we'll as on the
farm of Mr. A. B. Smith, near the
city limits, and from the success at
tanned so far it would appear that
the ravages of the boil weevil have
been conquered to a greater extent
than heretofore.
These experiments are in the ma
ture of a dry spray, and its effective
ness is already apparent in the fields,
so much so that Superintendent B.
M. Gaddis, who is in charge of the
work, is becoming enthusiastic over
the results.
The spray is composed of sulphur
10 per cent, strychnine Is per cent.
and lime rs per cent. 1t is put on
through an improvised spraying ma
chine which is driven by a gasoline
SuSIle, While CWO InuleS pun Iu6
truck upon which the machine is car
ried. Three rows of cotton are spray
ed at each trip and an average of
twenty acres per day can be handled,
all at cost which is very nominal.
In the cotton which is being used
for the experiment on the Smith
place the good results are apparent
in very plain manner, This cotton
has been continually sprayed through
the boil weevil season and the crop
is far above the average and is con-
sidered safe.
The fine dry powder from the
sprayer falls over the cotton field
like a cloud of steam, covering the
leaves, stalks. squares and bolls with
a complete film, which is made adj
hesive by the dews of the night
When the weevil bites through this
film the poison makes a perfectly
good corpse of the insect and ends
its career instantly, thus making the
cotton crop safe.

DETERIORATION OF
COTTON CUTS CROP
DEMAND IN EXCESS OF LAST
YEAR, AND HIGH PRICES ARE
SURE TO PREVAIL.

There is no reason to get excited
over the cotton market situation" is
the opinion of ]. J. Brown, state
commissioner of agriculture, who
says if each farmer will retire and
hold every third bale, marketing the
remainder gradually, the cotton sit
uatiOn will work out all right. In
discussing this subject Mr.. Brown
said;
ut has cost us an average of more
than 25 cents to produce this crop"
Mr.. Brown stated, land the deterio-
ration has been the greatest in the
last forty days ever known. 1t is now
evident that we cannot make nor
nal crop.
ut has been clearly shown that the
American mills will need in round
numbers million bales more than
last year. America exported last
year about 100000 bales. Recently
England has increased her active
spindles five per cent. and increased
the number Of working hours Is per
cent; so that the English consump-
ton will be more than a million bales
in excess Of what is was last year.
''From these facts it is evident that
the worlds demand will be more than
two million bales in excess of last
year; and since the crop will not be
above normal there is no reason that
we can see to worry about the price
of cotton.
"The law of supply and demand
under which the farmers have been
selling their cotton for the Last fifty
years and every principle Of fair deal
ing warrants a legitimate price of
more than 35 cents a pound for the
current crop.
THE cotton states advisory mark
citing board, through its Washington
statistician, E. A. Calvin, of Texas,
will be in position to give out state
ment in the near future as to the
minimum price at which cotton
should be legitimately and fairly
sold"
