Dry Weather Hurts
Crops in Mitchell

CAMILLA, Ga, Sept. 22.-For the
first time since the ginning season
opened up, Camilla gins are having
a breathing spell. The fair weather
has enabled farmers to keep jam up
with the picking in many sections,
and the short crop is CO using the let
up in ginning. The crop for this
county will be at the most ten thou
sand bales this season, as compared
with sixteen thousand last year and
twenty-eight thousand the first year
of boil weevil conditions, and be-
fore there was any appreciable dam
age from the pest.
The peanut crop will be under last
years production on account of dry
weather, and cane is a total failure
for the cause. Hogs are not doing
well on account Of want Of moisture
Right in Camilla the ground has not
has not been so much as general
shower for three months. Fall gar
dens and potatoes are also a failure
The price of cotton together with
the good sample caused by dry wealth
er is all that will save the day.
Something like seventy-fve thou
sand dollars have been put into the
local banks for the past week on &C
count Of cotton sales to exporters
1t is estimated that counting the
crop held over from last year, there
are now about fifteen thousand bales
of cotton in Mitchell county. The
farmers show a disposition to sell
at twenty cents, and so far not much
has been shipped under that price.
Seed are selling at forty dollars.

Southern Industry
VIII Be Benefited
By Chemical Show

NEW YORK.-Prospects are bright
for the location of several importan ut
industries in the south as the result
of the Southern railway systems eX-
hibit Of mineral and chemical re-
sources Of the territory it serves at
the Seventh National Exposition of
Chemical Industries in New York,
which came to q close on Saturday,
September IL.
Wide attention was attracted to the
remarkable opportunities for indus
trial development in the south by
the Southern's exhibit, which was
the only one made by an American
railway. The exposition proved a
great success, the total attendance
having been over 100000, made ur
almost entirely of chemical experts
and manufacturers interested in the
development of new Industries and
looking for favorable locations.
Throughout the week the South
ern's booth was thronged by visitors
many of whom were amazed at the
showing of southern resources, par
ticularly as to the great variety of
minerals needed for the new chemical
industries which are now being de-
VelOped in America

Only One-Tenth Of All
Georgia Water Power
Has Been Developed

A very interesting survey of Geor-
gia's water power resources, both de-
veloped and undeveloped, has been
prepared by DR.. S. w. McCallie, state
geologist. It shows that only one
tenth Of the total water power Of the
state has yet been developed. but yet
this one-tenth, approximating 262,-
14S horsepower, is equal to an an
nual coal energy Of 17,SS1,000 tons.
Discussing developed water power
he says:
"Estimating four tons Of coal as
equivalent to one horsepower hour
the states total water powers as
shown above is equal annually to
the potential energy of 1881, 0OO
tons of coal. To deliver this huge
coal tonnage in one year 1t Woulo
require 793 Cotton carloads daily, or
So cars per hour, or one car in 1.8
minutes The money value of our
water power as above given In coal
tonnage, rating coal at SIS per ton, is
SS6,906,500 per annum.
"In this connection l wish to add
word concerning Burton Storage
dam, which is one Of the state
greatest engineering enterprises In
the way of conserving our water pow
ers. The storage capacity of this dam
which is 10 feet high. and backs the
water up stream for about ten miles,
is 5,2S0,OOO cubic feet, which is suf-
ficient to operate continually the
power plant at Tallulah falls for SO
days. This energy converted into
coal tonnage would represent approx
imately 100000 tons of Goa! which.
valued at S. per ton, would repre-
sent S1,O0O,0O0.
"It might be of interest to know
that the Burton reservoir holds suf-
ficient water to supply the city of
Atlanta at it's present rate of con-
sumption for more than IL years.
and that the run-off from the rain
fall in that part of Rabun county is
ample to fill the reservoir more than

700 \. Y. THEATERS
DANISH ARBUCKLE

NEW YORK,-Owners of seven
hundred motion picture and other
theaters in New York City, including
the Loew,s Keith, Fox and Mos
houses have voted unonimoulsy
through the Theater Owners Chamber
Of Commerce to refrain from show
ing films in which "Fatty" Arbuckle
appears until the case against the
comedian in connection with Virginia
Rappe's death has been closed.
OF more than hundred owners OF
theaters who attended the meeting
there were few who had not some
thing to say of the animosity dis
played by audiences toward Arbuckle
since newspaper reports Of his al
legged conduct in the San Francisco
tragedy had been published. The ses-
sion was held behind closed doors.
According to William Brandt, presi'
dent of the organization, and S. A
Moross, secretary, the appearance OF
slides on the screen, indicating flu
ture appearances of Arbuckle, have
been greeted with expressions Of dis
approval, in many instances the dis
order became so great it was neces.
been prepared before Miss Rappe's
death.
It also was said that the pictures
showing the daily life of film stars
caused hostile demonstrations wher
Arbuckle's likeness appeared. In q
half-dozen theaters withdrawal OF
these films was forced.
Patrons of motion picture theaters
vented their anger yesterday on on, ad,
vertising posters. "Four-sheets" II
the Hobbies of theaters were tori
down and "eight-sheet" posters or
bilIboards received attention. In some
houses every piece of pictorial OF
printed advertising bearing Ar
buckles name had torn from the
walls.
"It is plain that at present the pub
lie will not have Arbuckle's pictures,
said Mr.. Brandt. 1--WE have not pass
ed Judgment on Arbuckle. We merely
are suspending his pictures until he
is cleared Of the charges or CON
victed. If he is convicted, no more
Arbuck1e pictures will be shown. II
he is cleared in a court Of law, we
will display his films-provided the
public wants them"
The resolution adopted reads:
"Be 1t resolved, That the Theatel
Owners Chamber of Commerce fol
it's members go on record as suspend
ing the exhibition Of any and all pho
to-play productions in which Roscoe
Arbuckle appears pending final deter
mination of the charges now pending
against him.
''Be it further resolved, That the
exchanges distributing Arbuckle':
pictures he notified of this action"
