Prominent Visitor
At Exposition

Hon. w. w. Webb, president of
the Georgia Peanut Association and
Field Agent for the State Market Btu
reau spent Thursday afternoon in the
city, guest of the Fair Association.
OF which he is an honorary director.
Mr. Webb is one of the active forces
working in behalf of better market
ing conditions for Field products and
his success along this line has been
SO marked that he is kept busy at
tending county wide meetings of
farmers and business men, who are
endeavoring to find a solution to the
vexing problem of finding a profit
able outlet for the accommodating farm
products. Mr.. Webb especially urg-
es farmers to hold peanuts off the
market as the present prices are ac-
cording to his opinion entirely mad
equate to pay the cost of production.
Mr.. Webb also urges the establish
ment of Bonded Warehouses for cot
ton i'll each of the counties and will
gladly assist any county to secure
one. Mr.. Webb lives in Hahira,
where he has demonstrated for wears,
that cooperation among the farmers
and townspeople is entirely feasible.

COOPERATIVE YAM
MARKET ASSURED
Farm Bureau Completes Plan for
Storing and Curing Crop
TO MARKET CORN, ALSO
Farm Bureau To Help Pig Club
Work; Appropriates Prizes


Plans were approved for curing
and storing sweet potatoes on a CO.
operative basis by the Ben Hill
county Farm Bureau at the meeting.
Thursday of the county advisory
council at the county court house.
Mr.. J. +. Turner was elected treas
urer of the county council.
After discussion of work along de-
velopment lines in furthering the eff
forts of the pig, corn and calf club
boys, the council voted SIS to be
used for special pig club prize awards
at the Fitzgerald Exposition. The
money will be awarded by County
Agent c. t. Owens, who made the
motion for its appropriation
On motion of Mr.. A. ]. Sword,
plans were set on foot for coopera-
tive marketing of corn. Car loads
will be made up among the farmers
OF the county and will be shipped to
markets where the. prices are best. 1,
is probable that a special agent will
be retained by the bureau to get I'D
the car load lots and to find the besa
market to ship them.
The sweet potato deal was put
through between the farm bul eau and
the Lon Dickey Tobacco Warehouse
Company by committee of the farm
bureau composed of Messrs Wesley
X. Walker, J. Horton Taylor, and c.
T. Owens. The farmers will bring
their potatoes to the tobacco ware
house where they will be placed !
charge of an experienced man who
will supervise their curing and storing
In the Spring of the year when the
the market price of potatoes reaches
its high level, the farmers will sell in
car load lots at the most favorable
market centers. During the winter
the potatoes will remain in storage
insured and otherwise protected.
Warehouse receipts will be issued
as on cotton.

W. c. 7. U. Urges
Buy Gas On Saturday
Temperance Organization Wants
People Stop Sunday Business

Mrs. ). M. Whitchard of the W. c.
L. w., yesterday issued the FOLLOWING
appeal to the motoring public to pur-
chase Sunday supplies of gasoline on
Saturday in order that service STA
tons may remain closed on SUNDAYS
The appeal is in line with the w. G.
L. Y. Sabbath Observance effort
1t follows:
FIFTEEN hundred years before Christ
the following national law against
Sabbath Violations was written. and
the severe penalty attached:
4e shall keep the Sabbath There
tore: For it is Holy unto you. Every
one that defileth it shall surely be
put to death" Exodus 31-14.
Nearly four thousand wears later
the State of Georgia has said that no
man shall ply his trade or vocation
on the Sabbath, the penalty attached
is much milder, and men violate more
often.
Il any one should see fit to prose-
cute men who keep open on Sun
day" a separate case can be made.
and separate penalty imposed for
every violation, we are informed.
Some of these men want to "close
up on Sunday because they are men.
Now because you are men, wont you
help them to close up by buying
gasoline on Saturday, instead of Sum
day? Some of you will because YOU
are men
Wont you buy your cigars and
other sundries on Saturday, instead
of Sunday? Some of you will.
Wont all of you who patronize the
Greek Store on Pine Street and the
store opposite the Passenger Depot,
and the little side stores in various
parts of the city. Please make your
purchases On Saturday? Some of YOU
will.
Wont you please get your wives
to purchase double supply. of ice
on Saturday? Some of you will.
Now gentlemen who are forced to
keep open on Sunday" in order to
supply urgent necessities, wont YOU
close up like men, and let all the
careless ones do without? Some of
you will, because you are men. Some
others will keep OPEN in order to
test the law which says: "He that
being often reproved, hardeneth his
neck shall suddenly be destroyed and
that without remedy"
Committee Christian Citizenship &
Sabbath Observance, w. c. T. U.
MRS. S. M. WHITCHARD,
Chairman.
Mrs. Elizabeth Perkins, the Child
welfare Director of the National w.

Bats, prominent citizen of Della,
died at four o'clock this morning

some trouble about the crop raised
by Roberts. At noon yesterday they
met at the gin of the Ocilla Cotton &
Fertilizer Company in Ocilla and af-
ter some conversation Roberts picked
up a club and started towards Bats.
who then shot at Roberts but missed
him. Roberts then struck Bats on
the head knocking him down. After
he fell Roberts again struck him in
the back of the head, crushing the
skull Roberts is jailed here charged
with murder.
Mr.. Bats has resided in Ocilla for
the past twenty years In 1901 he
married Miss Bertha 'Paulk, TIL e
daughter of Hon. J. Warren Paulk,
former representative from Irwin
county. The deceased is survived by
his wife and three minor sons, and
by brother, E. w. Bats, promi-
nent cotton buyer of Ocilla, and one
sister, Ms. Boone of Macon. Rob-
erts has large family and many rel

Auto That Struck
Man Caught After
Twelve-Mile Chase
Car Pursued Through the
Streets of Upper Manhat-
tan at Furious Clip; Vic
tim Suffers Broken Leg

Travelling at fifty miles an hour, an
avenging touring car carrying witness
es and policemen caught the powerful
machine which had struck Oraste
Scholise, at Broadway and 163rd
Street, last night after twelve mile
chase through the crowded streets of
upper Manhattan. In the fugitive
car, which was driven by Jack Schwat-
zer, contractor, of $50 West 180th
Street, were Charles Thorte, of 552
West 163rd Street and two women who
refused their names to the police at
the West 152nd Street station.
Scholise and his wife were crossinb
Broadway on their way home to 656
West 152nd Street, when Schwatzer's
car, driven, the police say, at ter
rife rate bore down upon them. Scho
lise pushed his wife out of the path of
the speeding automobile, but was him
self struck. He was taken to the St.
Lawrence Hospital with e broken leg.
Schwatzer's car did not even hesitate
and Jack Wall, of 791 st. Nicholas
Avenue, who was driving behind the
Schwatzer machine, gave chase, after
picking up Two women and man who
Street, Wall collected Patrolman Brig
ley, Of Traffic C, who gave him author
ity to go after the speeding machine
with ali he had.
Schwatzer led the pursuing car down
to Riverside Drive, back to 161st Street
across Broadway to ST. Nicholas Ave
nue., to 155th Street and across the
viaduct by the Polo Grounds to Sew
enth Avenue. From there the chase
led, at the speed both cars were capa-
bic of, to 147th Street and Mott Ave
nue., back to Eighth Avenue to 145th
Street and from there through various
side streets to Eighth Avenue and 143d
Stret.
Here Wall began to gain, and at 13Sth
Street and Fifth Avenue the Schwatzer
machine was overhauled and run into
the curb. Brigley, with his revolver in
/ his hand, ordered Schwatzer back C
/ the 152d Street police station, whera
charge of felonious assault and failing
/ to stop after an accident were placed
against him.
The chase lasted less than fiftccf
minutes and created the widest excite
ment along the streets. Corners were
turned on one wheel and traffic police
men everywhere were on the hunt 70,

Reds Extend Persian Operations
Chamberlain May Deposit
Money in Any City Bank

The Sinking Fund Commission at it's
meeting yesterday authorized Philip
BerolZheimei, City Cham erlain, to de-
posit sinking fund money in any city
depository. The motion was not on the
calendar and Comptroller Charles L.
Craig objected to it's consideration on
that ground and also on the ground
that the commission had nothing to say
as to who're sinking fund money should
be deposited
we'll take chance on it," said
the Mayor. Call the roll"
The motion was passed. The Cham
berlain scored point in his contro-
versy with the Comptroller, who has
raised objections at various times to
the Chamberlain being allowed to de-
Nosit money ir any banks he saw fit
contending that the rapid switching of
funds from one bank to another had
greatly embarrassed the city at times
when checks had been drawn on banks
where there were not sufficient funds
to cover them.
The commission denied the applica
ton of the Weber Buncke- -Lange Coal
Company for the renewal of the lease
now held by the company of wharf
property between West Ninety sixth
and Ninety-seventh streets. The appli-
cation was once before denied on the
ground that it was in the eighborhooc
of Riverside Drive. 1t was denied yes.
terday on the same ground.
