PRoHIBITIoNISTs BUSY

Atlanta. Ca, Jan. 26.-Plans for the
southern campaign for ratification of
the prohibition amendment to the
federal constitution were outlined by
state superintendent Of the Anti
Saloon League at general meeting
held in Birmingham from which J. A.
Christian of this city, superintendent
of the Georgia Anti-Saloon League,
has just returned.
That the Georgia legislature will
ratify the amendment at its next ses-
sion is the consensus of opinion here.
Georgia's prohibition laws are among
the most thoroughgoing in the coun-
Try. They have given the state the
nearest approach to genuine prohibit
ton it has ever enjoyed, and the re-
suits in reduced crime and increased
prosperity have been SO striking as to
cause comment throughout the coun-
try. Hence it staken for granted
that Georgia's lawmakers will keep
the record straight" by ratifying the
prohibition amendment to the federal

HYDRO-ELECTRIC COTTON
MILLS TO CLOSE MONDAY

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 27.-That Geor-
gia cotton milis using hydro-electric
power to drive their machinery must
close next Monday and on all sue
ceeding Mondays up to and including
Monday, March Is, was the inform
alton received in Atlanta yesterday
from DR.. L. G. Hardman, Federal
Fuel Administrator for Georgia.
Just why this order was promul-
gated by DR.. Hardman cannot be fig
ured out here, since it had been pre-
viously announced from Washington
that the fuel closing order did not af-
feet the use of hydro-electric power,
which is not produced by the con-
sumption of fuel. Plants in Atlanta
and elsewhere using hydro-electric
power, and able to keep their opera
tives warm without the use of heat in
the factory buildings, had continued
to operate during the five day period,
and were planning to operate next
Monday.
Just why the order should affect
cotton mills using hydro-electric
power, while not affecting other
plants using the same sort of power,
is also beyond the local fuel admin
istrator and his associates.
ItAlas been suggested that perhaps
cotton mills dependent upon steam
power made complaint to DR.. Hard
man that the continued operation of
cotton mills using hydro-elecric pow
er WORKED an unjust hardship and
discrimination upon them.

NEED BIC HERDS
Euope's Meat Supply Must Come
From America.
Warning Natiene Have Depleted Live
Stock at Enormous Rate, Eve,
Killing Dairy Cattle For Food.

American stock breeders are being
asked to conserve their fiocks and
herds In. order to meet Europe's ire
Imendous demands for meats during
the war and probably for many years
afterward.
The United States food admins
tration reports that American stock
raisers have shown disposition to
cooperate with the government in in.
.creasing the nations supply Of live
stock.
Germany today is probably better
supplied with live stock than any 9TH
er European nation. When the Ger
man armies made their big advance
into France and then retreated viz
ttually all the cattle in the invaded
territory - approximately 100000
ihead-were driven behind the German
lines.
But In England-where 100000
acres Of pasture lands have been turn
ed into grain f1elds-the cattle herds
are decreasing rapidly. One Of the
reasons apparently is the declining
maximum price scale adopted by the
English as follows: For September,
$17.76 per 100 pounds; October, $17.2s |;
November and December, $16.OS; JAN
larry. $1440. The effect Of these prices
was to drive beef animals ON the mar
iket as soon as possible.
In France the number OF cattle az
well as the quality have shown an
enormous decline during the war.
Where France had 1880, 600 head of
cattle in 1913, she now has only r..
S41. 300, a decrease Of 1873 per cent.
And France Is today producing only
one gallon Of milk compared to two
and 0ne-half gallons before the war.
Denmark and Holland have been
forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef
because OF the lack Of necessary feed.
Close study Of the European meat
situation has convinced the Food Ad-
ministration that the future problem
Of America lies largely In the produc-
ton Of meat producing animals and
dairy products rather than in the pro-
duction Of cereals for export when
the war win have ceased.

BRAN SHOULD NOT COST
OVER $26.3s PER TON

Atlanta, Georgia, Jan. 28.-An-
nouncement made by the Federal
Food Administration from DR.. A. M.
Soule's Office, is that farmers of the
country should be able to buy bran
at the mill door in bulk at not ex-
ceeding $2635 per ton where the av-
erage price of wheat at the mill is
SOS per bushel. This announcement
is one of the most important in the
matter of purchase made by the Ad-
ministration.
The figures are based on a new
ruling of the milling Division of the
United States Food Administration.
This ruling advised the mills that
temporarily and until definite reg
ulation is issued, a maximum differ
entail on feed of mixed car lot or less
than car lot shipments should be so
cents per ton over car lot basis"
The milling division says: 1--WE
know of no reason why mills should
not desire to sell to farmers at mill
door; in fact, this regulation was put
into effect to accomplish this
very result as far as possible. We
have no doubt that mills will fall into
line to accomplish the result desired"
The car lot basis, as announced, is
figured on ruling issued by the
United States Food Administration
which declared that bulk price for
bran shall in no case exceed SO per
cent of the average cost of one ton
of wheat at the mill.
On this basis the Federal Food AID.

DOLLAR CLUB IS
ORGANIZED IN ATLANTA

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 26-Ten thousand
Georgians will be invited to join the
Thousand Dollar Club of the War
Savings Stamp camgaign, and the
preliminary response resulting from
the announcement of the organiza-
ton of the club indicates that the
membership will leasily go to the linn
it.
Each member of the club will buy
81 900 worth of War Savings Stamps,
which is the maximum limit for an in
dividual. A man can buy $1,000
worth of stamps for himself and
ST 900 worth for each member of his
family, but the government will not
sell him more than the maximum lin
it in his name.
The 10000 members of the Thous-
and Dollar Club will thus, when all
have purchased their maximum al
lowance, dispose of 100000 worth of
War Savings Stamps.
Otto Marx, director of the war
thrift campaign in the southern states
has just held a conference with Hugh
Richardson, of Atlanta, director of
the campaign for this state, and plans
for the organization of the Thousand
Dollar Club were completely worked
out.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT
HELPS PAY FOR BREAD

There has been much misunder-
standing about the bread program in
England. 1t is true that the English
man buys loaf Of bread for less than
an American can, but it is poorer
bread, and the British government Is
paying $20O,OO0,OO0 a year toward the
cost of 1t.
All the grain grown in Great Brit
ain is taken over by the government
at an arbitrary price and the imported
wheat purchased on the markets at
the prevailing market price. This Is
turned over to the mills by the govern
ment at price that allows the adul-
terated war bread loaf of four pounds
to sell at Is cents, the two pound loaf
at Q cents and the one pound loaf at 8
cents.
In France, under conditions some
what similar, but with a larger ex-
traction, the four pound loaf sells for
10 cents.

MAKING MEATLEsS
DAYS PERMANENT.

In the meatless menu there is q fer.
tile field for developing new and nour-
fishing dishes, according to e. H. Niles,
writing in the Hotel Gazette, who be-
lieves that the present shortage of
meat and fats will not end with the
coming of peace, but may grow more
acute and continue for FIVE or six
years, thus making 1t worth while to
develop menus of grain, vegetables
and fish on more or less permanent
basis. Meat can be replaced by cereals
and other protein foods, or may be
served in very small portions as fla
voring for other food. In making up
meatless menus this author finds our
American Creole and southern cuisine
q broad field for investigation.
