 The statement by framers of the bill that it would bring in an an- nual revenue of around seven hun dred million dollars means, he said, that during the life of the measure, every man. woman and child i'll the United States will be compelled to contribute $20 each per annum to it's beneficiaries.
 Declaring that rates were higher than those in the Payne-Aldrich bill, Mr. Garner added he did not believe the American people cOntem plated such additional burdens when they turnde the government over last year to the Republicans. Mr. Garner charged there were prOyi- sions in the bill which were utterly uninteliigible. particularly the dye and wool schedules.

GEORGIA DRY LAW WORKS

 At the first hearing Judge Tar ver ordered the whiskey put in jail" for safe keeping The sheriff had been using up his supply of deputies guarding the seized car when this order was made, and he, at least breathed a sigh of relief. The Judge first ordered he whiskey destroyed, but everybody concerned made so much noise that the order was modified. Now it is ordered that another hearing shall he held and the car held for possible con fiscation

Atlanta.

The reason is the recent formation of peanut growers in Virginia and North Carolina into q peanut exchange that will control more than 90 per cent of the peanut production of these two states-fis- ures which are respectable when you realize that most of the peanuts the elephants eat come from that section.
 The marketing plan is based on the successful venture made by California fruit growers some time ago. The contract was drawn by Aaron Sapiro. attorney off number of groups of fruit growers in Cali fornia.
 This exchange of the peanut grow CTS will be the first organization perfected east of the Mississippi river on the California plan. The membership will include more than D 900 growers, each Of whom has subscribed $50 for one share Oi stock. Provision also is made fol issuance of preferred stock not tt exceed S350, 900.

A recent query on the subject was addressed to 13.000 publishers and newspaper men of the nation. Of the nearly S,000answers thus far received, 1898 were of the belief that an anti-tobacco cru sade was futile and inadvisable. More than 90 per cent were emphatic in the belief that the sentiment of their community discouraged any special war against tobacco. If a man wants to smoke, let him do it" That is the opinion of 93 per cent of the editors of America, accord ing to the returns thus far re- ceived It would seem that that ought to settle it.

 METHODS OF
 CULTIVATION
Harrow Between Showers To Keep The Cotton Growing, Says Commis- sioner of Agriculture.
By JIM G. FERGUSON

Freauent but shallow cultivation of cotton during '1uly and August lis means of increasing the yield of lint that many growers overlook. Shallow cultivation repeated at in tervals of seven to ten days serves Ia threefoid purpose: It kills weeds, it keeps the surface soil in good |tilth. and. what is of far more inn portance, it maintains dust mulch which retards evaporation and holds the moisture in the soil until need led by the cotton. Copius rains fell lately and just now there is plenty will not stay there long unless it is conserved. No effort should be spared to hold the moisture now available in the soil. A dust mulch is rne best known method.
 When cotton is growing rapidly and setting fruit it must have an abundance of water. It happens that ideal growing weather is also fa vorable for evaporation of moisture especially the period immediately following a rain when the sun comes out bright and hot. and bal6es the ground Water evaporates faster from sun baked soil than from any other Every observant farmer has noticed how quickly crops sometimes wilt after a rain, which fact con vinces many that light rain may do more damage than good. This would not always be the ease if the land was cultivated shallow imme- diately after the rain and the dust mulch restored, there would be lit tie loss by evaporation. and the rain would benefit rather than in- jure the crops.
 Frequent cultivation serves an other purpose where the boil wee wills are present. These pests are knocked to the ground by agitating' the stalks and hundreds of them are covered up and smothered.

ARMY IS FACING A
 PECULIAR PROBLEM

Washington, July 1.-President Harding informed congress yesterday that while he had signed the army appropriation bill with its provision for a reduction of the regular army to 10000 men by October 1, it may be necessary to ask for a modl- fication of the measure later to avoid embarrassment to the secre- tary of war.
 The president said in special message sent to both the senate and the house that summary dis missal from the army of men who have enlisted for longer period than to October l, seems to involve a repudiatiun of a moral obligation by the government, which would have it's effect upon the morale Of the army and possibly influence en- listments in the future.
 The nature Of the notifications which may be asked later was not disclosed, nor did the president eX- plain how it is proposed to meet the moral obligations to the men and at the same time carry out the direction of congress to reduce the force by some 10000 men, in the next three months. He did say, however, that every effect will be made to meet the requirements of the congress at the earliest possible day"
 Secretary Weeks, in discussing the bill yesterday, said that if the War Department succeeds in meet ing the limitations imposed by con gress some 30,000 civilian employees of the army besides the 70,000 en- listed men will be thrown on the labor market to cOmplicate the un- employment situation. He added that the War Department still hopes to he able to avoid the summary dismissal of any enlisted man in re- Iducing the army, and that for the present no enlisted men will be dis charged against their wishes. He explained that an opportunity will be given enlisted men in the service who want to leave to tender their resignation" In this way, he said, it is hoped to avoid forced discharges. For the next few weeks Mr. Weeks added, only routine and requested discharges will be issued If these do not indicate that the enlisted strength will reach the level fixed by congress, the question of arbitrarily discharging enough men to make up the difference then will be taken up.
 In signing the bill President Hard l ing is said to have followed a course
 regarded by his advisors as the only
 practicable one in view of the in sistence of both the house and sen ate that the army be reduced as
 proposed in the measure, and the short time remaining before the
 end of the fiscal year.
