TOPLANT TEST
PASTURE SOON
w. |. Iosey Visited By
Agriculturalist Of
Central

]. A. Winslow, of Cuthbert, agri-
culturalist Of the Central Of Geor-
gia railroad, was in Americas Mon
day comforting with W. J. Josey in
connection with the latter's arrange
:nent with the department to plant a
demonstration permanent pasture on
his farm mile and quarter west
of Americas. This pasture, to be
IL acres the first year, and lying so
that it can be extended later, will
be sown to lespedeza, carpet grass
and dallas grass in March. While
here Mr.. Winslow gave out the fol-
lowing statement:
With good pastures we can pro-
duce beef and milk more cheaply
than any other part Of he United
States, and now that we are rid Of
the cattle tick and our farmers are
! taking an active interest in better
cattle, pastures are the only thing
lacking to make ours the most prot
liable cattle raising section in The
country.
Until recently we made little or
no effort to improve our pastures,
never having felt the need for coed
pastures. Because 50 few realize
the value Of pastures, or understand
that it is possible to haze pastures
as good as can be found anywhere,
/ it is believed the establishment of a
/ few really good pastures, { as a
/ demonstration of what SUCH pastures
are, ard how to make them win lay
corner stones for Che foundation OF
coed pastures on which our cattle
raising industry must be built.
"IIr. Joaey has agreed to do the
pioneer work in this county for the
benefit of his neighbors as wei as
himself, and the farmers Of the
county should watch carefully what
is done on he test pasture.
"Already there are few farmers
who have such faith in the possibili
ties Of good pastures that they arc
not waiting until the test pasture
proves what car be done, but will
keep in close touch with the worE
there and start building pastures fo1
themselves at once, following the in.
struetions from the State College OF
Agriculture, as given by the Cen
trails agriculturalists who will visi'
the farms Of those interested ant
recommend methods which should
give best results"

Petition for an examination of Mil

of Milton Helm & Co., of New York and

tary bankruptcy September 6, will be
filed to-day in the United States Dis
trict Court here by committee repre-
ssenting the firms creditors, according

mittee.
This action, Mr.. Barfod said yester-
day, is to be the result of several
weeks investigation of the companv's
affairs made by the committee, which,
he declared, makes the charge that the
books indicate irregularities.
Mr.. barfod's statements were termed
"substantially correct" by Max L.

the firm during the illness of his law
partner, former Judge Strasbourger,
who was appointed receiver by Judge
Julius Mayer. at that time of the
United States District Court.
"Pack of Lies,' Says Helm
The charges were vigorously denied
last night, both by Mr.. Helm and Fred
erick Henley, his attorney. Mr.. Helm
characterized them as "a pack of l;es''
and said he "would have been in diff
eulties long ago if he had conducted his
business in such manner" Mr.. Hem
ley accused Mr.. Barfod and the other
committee members of "breaking into
print for purposes of cheap intim,da-
ton" and asserted that "several cr,mi-
nal complaints made against Mr.. Helm
were thrown out by magistrates and
dlsSrlct attorneys who saw no justifca
tion for them"
Ihe carrying of number of accounts
of "boy friends" of Mr.. Helm who were
not required to put up any margin in
connection with their trading activities

Special Dispatch to The Tribune


FLORENCE, Ala, Dec 4.-Thomas
A. Edison to-day gave his Endorsement
to Henry Ford's plan for converting
the lower Tennessee River into an in
dustrial community centering at
Muscle Shoals. After the wizards of
Menlo Park and Dearborn had spent
another day inspecting dams and
power plants and discussing prices and
horsepowers and ways Of stopping
wars, the inventor put his o. k. on
Mr.. Ford's entire program.
"Itll Co." he said.
Mr.. Edison expressed his approval
of the Ford idea Of displacing gold
with energy as the standard of value.
He said he felt that gold was an inse-
cure basis for currency because sud-
den change might come and destroy
for measuring dollars in energy rather
than in gold was feasible. but he did
not seem to believe that it would be
adopted because bankers wouldn't
make any profits under an energy-cur-
rency system. AS for Mr.. Ford him
self, he said he didn't want to discuss
the energy idea any further until the
first principles had sunk in.
Mr.. Ford's plan involves the issu-
ance of currency by the governmen ent
based on the potential producing power
Of industrial enterprises such as the
Muscle Shoals nitrate plant. Thus, il
nm 0A0 in IN c
instance, wages could be paid with the
money and the issue could gradually be
retired out of profits.
Mr.. Edison said he believed Mr.
Ford's estimate that it would take
30,000,000 energy dollars to complete
the Muscle Shoals project was correct
Wants the Work Rushed
Mr.. Edison said he thought the Ford
offer one that the government by all
means should accept, and that work
should begin at the earliest possible
moment. 1t would be shame for such
fine beginning to be junked, he said
"I will recommend Mr.. Ford's Offer
to Congress and / will recommend it te
the American people," Mr.. Edison said
When Mr.. Ford was asked whether
his financing plan was not the most
radical ever proposed, he retorted:
w ude pAVPVSdi VI tAlS typc, iOl
doing something that has always beer
done another way, is not considered
radical?"
Ford is being hailed as the Messiah
of Muscle Shoals by the people o1
Florence. His every idea and word are
dwelt upon eagerly by the people here
He was asked to give a message to the
community, and sent this word:
"Tell the people of Florence to hole
on to their land and not to sell it any
way save outright. Don't let the specu
lators skin you"
| There has been considerable lane
boom here because of the Ford Offer
and land is being held for $1,000 al
acre as q result.
