FATE OF THE Gagged BOIL
WEEVTLS NOT YET KNOWN
Believed Some of IL 900 Kept at the
South Georgia Station For Ex-
periments Killed by the Cold.

VALDOSTA, Ga.-Much anxiety
is shown in the probable fate of
1000 boil weevils kept in the wire
cages at the state sea island cotton
experiment farm here Superinten-
dent B. H. Gaddis says he cannot
tell yet if the pets have escaped the
ravages of the unusual winter and
only warm weather will tell the
story.
In the fall the II 900 weevils were
installed in their wire screened cages
where they could hibernate through
the winter and be ready in the spring
and summer for use in the scientific
experiment work of the station. This
is done every year in order that the
stall-fed pests can be used whenever
wanted Ordinarily there are plenty
of them, but to have them Gagged al
ways assures the superintendent of
a supply when they are needed for
expert mental work.
Mr.. Gaddis says he is sure that the
cold weather has destroyed at least
part of his colony and he is anxious
for enough warm weather to get
them to stirring and see just what
their capacity is for standing sure
enough cold weather.

TALKING OF DORSEY
In SENATE RACE
GOVERNOR SAYS NOTHING. AL
READY SEVERAL CANDIDATES
AND PROSPECTIVE ENTRIES.

ATLANTA, Ga.-When any one
breaches the subject of the United
States senatorship to Gov. Hugh M.
Dorsey his lips are tightly sealed.
He smiles, but says nothing,
At the same time it is we'll known
that Gov. Dorsey is being urged
from many sources to get into the
race-not the race of 1920 against
Senator Hoke Smith. but that of
1918 against Senator Hardwick.
Politicians who have looked into
the situation, or say they have, de-
clare that the governor is the only
man who can beat Hardwick. Hard
wick's friends, on the other hand,
declare that even the governor can't
do it,
Nevertheless, that's the way some
are trying to bring about a lineup
in the approaching senatorial fight
Dorsey VS.. Hardwick. Nobody knows
whether the governor is going to get
into it or not; but everybody who
knows him does know that he is not
going to enter into any long-distance
scramble for it. If his friends should
induce him to enter the field it is
practically certain they would have
to assure at least race unhampered
by numerous entries.
Could this be done under any cir
cumstances? There are already in
the race or preparing to enter it
some five or six candidates. Attorney
John R. Cooper, of Macon, has just
thrown his hat into the ring with the
announcement. that he "just wants
to be senator"
There seems to be feeling of GER
tainty that Chairman w. J. Harris,
of the federal trade commission, will
be one of the candidates. Friends of
Chairman c.. NJ Gambler, of the
state railroad commission, are almost
momentarily expecting his announce
ment.
Emmett Shaw, of Fort Gaines, and
W. D. Upshaw, of Atlanta, are al
ready announced caRdidates, and
Congressman William Schley How
ard, of the Fifth district, is still look
ed upon as a possible figure.
Altogether, the outlook is gloomy
for man to man race.

AMERICA HAS FIRST
DISASTER At SEA
TRANSPORT CARRYING u. S.
TROOPS is SUNK BY U-BOAT
IN SIGHT OF LAND.
OF 1897 SOULS ON BOARD
ALL BUT 166 ARE SAVED

Forty-four Unidentified Bodies Wash
Ashore on Rocks. Eight Georgians
Were on Vessel. Attack Was Made
Just About Dusk.
A story of disaster at sea, affect
ing the hearts and hopes of Ameri-
cans, although they have been school
ed to expect it ever since the first
contingent of their fighting men left
an Atlantic port to become brothers
in-arms to the entente warriors who
are entrenched against the German
hordes, fortunately has dwindled in
the telling. A hundred and sixty-six
lives were lost in the torpedoing of
the British troop ship Tuscania, off
the Irish coast at dusk Tuesday eve
ming, according to the latest report.
She carried 1897 souls, including g.
ITO United States army foresters,
engineers, supply train men, military
police and aero units, and the first
meager details Wednesday night in
dictated that the death list due to the
steamers sinking might be approx
lmately 1000. A later estimate that
night, however, gave 267 as the num-
Der of men missing. Friday morn
ing the figure was reduced to 1865.
The rescued, therefore, number q
296. Among the American survivors
are 76 officers.
The Tuscania, a liner of 14,348
gross tons, was one of a strongly
guarded convoy and proceeding east
ward off the north coast of Ireland
when disaster overlook her. The
shore line was visible from the star
board side through the dusk. of on
coming night, and it was from this
direction that the lurking submarine
discharged a torpedo that found its
mark in the boiler room of the steam
er. A second torpedo was seen to
pass harmlessly astern.
Bodies Wash Ashore.
The bodies of IA of the missing
166 victims of the Tuscania disaster
were washed up Wednesday in rocks
Is miles from the scene of the tor
pedoing. All were Americans and
their bodies were mutilated beyond
recognition.
A pathetic feature is that, although
all the victims wore tags, no identi-
fcation numbers had been put on
them because these Americans had
not as yet been assigned to definite
army units. Therefore, there is no
way to identify them, and they
were buried in one grave.
Ten Georgians were on board the
vessel, and all were saved. They are:
CORTLAND S. VIM, jr., Atlanta;
James R. Bost, Atlanta; Charles H.
Greer, Union Point; Boyd E. Han
cock, Thomasville; Hardy G. Rob
inson, Lawrenceville; Robert Lee
Malone, Valdosta; Allen w. Harris,
Winder; Edward ]. Peacock, Vienna;
Charles D. Arbendell, Jacksonville;

CONSTRUCTION OF AVIATION
CAMP TO BEGIN in MARCH
1t Is Expected That 800 Men and
Seventy Machines VIII Be Sta
toned at Americas,

A telegram has been received in
Americas from Col. C. G. Edgar, of
the aviation section of the army, ad-
wishing that the aviation site there
had been finally approved.
The camp will be in three sections,
and the main section will occupy 4O7
acres on the Aries plantation, four
miles east of Americas, this land
having been leased for three years
by the government.
Two Auxiliary Camps.
One of the auxiliary camps or
landing places will be on the Duck
worth place, two miles from the
main camp site, where two hundred
acres have been secured. The other
auxiliary camp will be located on the
Freeman and Mcneil places, embrac-
ing two hundred acres. There will be
fifteen hundred men and seventy ma
chimes stationed at the Americas
camp, and parties interested in Sc
curing it for Americas have been
notified to proceed at once with prep
arations for receiving large quanti-
ties of building material to be sent
there. 1t is anticipated grading oper-
atiOns will commence Immediately
and that the erection of houses to
shelter men and machines will be
under way by March 1st.
Congressman Crisp has urged that
the contract be awarded to the Nc
Creary company, of Atlanta. Other
concerns have representatives on the
scene in Washington and the fight
now on to land the contract may tie
the matter up for several days.
Senator Hoke Smith has also rec
commended the McCreary firm. Mr..
Crisp is anxious that work be imme
diately begun and completed as soon
as possible.

HARVESTS ICE WITH
PASSENGER CAR
NEW JOB FOR AUTOMOBILE is
INVENTED BY WELLESLEY,
MASS, ICEMAN.

Motor trucks haul ice thru the city
streets in summer, but it has remained
for Wellesley, Mass.,-that center Of
culture and feminine learning-to dis
cover how to harvest ice with a mo-
tor. And once more necessity is the
uarent of the idea.
Reuben Carrier cuts his ice from
Morse's Pond in Wellesley. He was
particularly anxious to &c: at the job
early this winter, for the first ice was
thick and clear and fine. Ordinarily
his work required rs horses and IS
men. But both horses and men were
scarce this winter, so Curriers' inge-
nuity devised spiked rims for the rear
wheels of a Dodge Brothers touring
car. After that the ice harvest pro-
ceeded merrily-and proftably the
Dodge Brothers car doing the work Of
four horses.
First the car was tried with the ice
maker and then with the growing
plow, and it was found that a much
larger expance was covered than with
horses. Then the car was turned to
hauling ice from the far side Of the
pond to the ice house channel; and it
easily lowed cakes 100 feet long while
