Senator Harris Asks
For Cotton Statement

WASHINGTON, Oct. Ex-senator
Harris, Democrat, Georgia, today re-
quested the department of agricul-
ture to issue a statement of the esti-
mate Of cotton conditions at the same
time the census bureau makes pub
lie on October Is the next ginners'
report showing the number Of bales
Of cotton ginned in the new crop. The
condition report issued October l
was the last scheduled for the year.
Director Steuart, of the census bu-
reau, is expected to recommend to
the secretary of agricultural depart
ment that an accompanying state
ment be issued, according to informa-
ton given Senator Harris, and it is
very likely. said the Georgia senator.
that the department of agriculture
will make some kind of statement,
the scope of which has not been
agreed upon.
Senator Harris said he made the
request because. if the next ginners'
report shows a large comparative
amount Of cotton ginned without an
additional report estimating the
proportion Of the total crop ginned to
that date, it might result in organ
lied effort Of "bearish" speculative
interests to depress the price of cot
ton.
The agriculture department and
census bureau have not announced
what plans they have agreed upon.

Annual Salvation Army
Appeal Oversubscribed
Very Quickly in Rome
BY CONDO

ROME. Ca. Oct. 11.-Not since
the war days of 1918 has Rome put
over such a successful financial ap-
peal as closed here Monday. The
entire city was turned over to make
the annual appeal for the Salvation
Army a complete success. With a
quota of $4,000, the total went to
$500 almost before any one knew
how effective were the organizations
sponsoring the movement.
The missionary societies from the
First Presbyterian church, the First
Methodist, the North Broad Baptist,
the Trinity Methodist the. South
Broad Presbyterian, the Maple Street
Baptist, the First Baptist, the Second
Avenue Methodist, the South Broad
Methodist, the South Broad Baptist
the Fifth Avenue Baptist and the
woman's auxiliary to the chamber OF
commerce had committees of ten each
in the drive. The entire quota was
oversubscribed within three hours
after the canvassers entered their
territories, 1t was said.
The mems division was sponsored
by the Rotary club with L. M. Van
diver as chairman, and, the Kiwanis
man. Each of these committees
raised over $1,000 for the cause.
While the various organizations
did their full share in the movement
much Of the success of the entire
appeal has been alleged to the ad-
ministrative and executive ability OF
the general chairman, Rev. Elam F.
Dempsey, D. D, pastor of the First
Methodist church. Walter B. Shad-
dix, an organization engineer Of At

Partridges Hunted
With Crazy Quilts
(From Asia.)


In central Asia there Is q species
of partridge with more than it's share
Of curiosity and the natives have
found way to take advantage OF
this weakness.
Touring through that section dur
ing the season one would notice Pc
culiar objects of many brilliant col.
ors bobbing along in the fields or
behind rocks. On closer examination
one would find that each Of these
objects is a native hunter.
In their left hands they are carry
ing screens Of cloth that look some
thing like crazy quilts of the most
glaring colors. This patchwork OF
frame resembling a kite, and some
Of the cloth is tied on the edge in
the form of streamers that wave In
the breeze.
The species Of partridge for which
they hunt is called the chullar, or
rock partridge. They are so wild
that hunters find it difficult to get
within striking distance. Almost al
hunters carry old-fashioned guns, and
if they cannot get close to their game
they waste a great many shots.
However, one hunter discovered
that the partridge is full of curiosity
regarding colored objects and so he
rugged up his crazy quilt arrange
ment, and for a. time he was the
champion hunter Of the provinces
Then he was seen hunting and his
secret was out.
Soon every hunter was making use
Of the contrivance, with the result
that the hunting grounds are now
dotted with numbers Of odd looking
objects waving in the air

1000 BALES COTTON
!. BURN IN DAWSON

DAWSON, Ga, Oct. 11.-Fire of un-
determined origin which completely
destroyed the Planters Warehouse
here early Monday night, caused a
loss of approximately 100000, the
present market value Of 1000 or more
bales Of cotton stored in the building.
Most OF the cotton was covered by
insurance. The exact number OF
bales stored in the building has not
yet been determined. as 1t Is not yet
known whether the Office records were
burned.
Due to q heavy wind which was
sweeping the sparks from the con-
flagration over the adjoining build
ings, it was feared for some time
that the entire south of Dawson was
doomed. but heroic work by the local
fire department soon brought the
blaze under control. The building of
q. b. Durham and company, a fur
niture concern located next to the
warehouse, was in the greatest dam
ger.
The area Of the oonflagration was
finally confined to the warehouse
plant, which consists of two build
ings. The fire was discovered in the
smaller of the buildings but 1t spread
quickly to the larger one. Early Tues
day the cotton was still smoldering,
but the fire department poured a con-
slant stream of water over the bales
to prevent the fire from breaking out
again.
The Planters Warehouse is one of
oldest firms in this city and this is
the first occasion Of any considera BILE
loss sustained by them. j. T. Cocker
was in charge of the management OF
the warehouse in the absence from
the city of the proprietors. Andrew

first in order to fulfill aA duty of
gratitude and to see in. their home
those noble and brave soldiers whons
we have seen in France. We will go
also to accomplish duty toward

France must remain armed as
long as, her security has not been

to reparations and security. AT no
time shall the French government
yield on those points. I will refute
the accusations of Imperialism which
have been made against France. Our
allies know that we demand our

Washington I will prove to the
Americans that France wants peace.
