Georgia Goats Increase;
Horses On the Wane
Government Figures Show How Rap

Government Figures Show How Rap
idly Auto Is Supplanting Dobbin.
Extra! Extra! Goats are on the in
crease in Georgia.
This important fact is revealed in a
mass of statistics just received from
the department of commerce.
There were 3,257 goats in Georgia
in 1910 while in 1920 the number had
increased to 4,214.
The best evidence that the automo-
bile has taken the place OF the horse
is seen in the big decrease in the num-
Der of horses. Old Dobbin cut quite a
figure in the social, business and farm
life of the state ten years ago. There
were 1888 horses in Georgia, while
last year the number had dwindled to
1868.
There was a big increase, however,
in the number of mules. In 1910 Geor-
gia had 1886 mules while last year
the population had expanded to 27,203.
Dairy cattle increased from 36,295
to 40018, cattle from 63,l72 to 70,853
and swine from 52,562 to l07,863, while
sheep decreased from 2,914 to 1850.

800 MODERN Ewes
CAVORT IN PARIS
ARTISTS AND MODELS HOLD
CARNIVAL AND NONE OF
THEM WEAR CLOTHES.

PARASITIC year one of the sec
ond heather era" was ushered in by
Latin quarter students Friday night
with the annual four arts ball. Five
thousand artists and many persons
prominent in the social world went
back to savagery and Carthage with
one leap.
The scene rivaled, if it did not sur
pass, the famed bacchanalian orgies Of
Salammbo.
While all were supposed to be COS
TUNED" in the "Carthaginian style,
hundreds solved the problem Of
what to wear" by wearing nothing al
all. Eye witnesses to the scene of rev.
elry at o'clock in the morning count
ed no fewer than three hundred wo-
men, chiefly models, clad in the famed
garb of Trilby.
Too Much Clothes.
An American art student whose sole
clothing was a pair of crimson bath
ing trunks was nearly rejected by the
reception committee because she HAD
too much on"
The most novel costume was worn
by Hebe, famous model. She dis
played her perfect figure by simply
wearing eighteen champagne corks.
Gloria, a Swedish model, the origina
September Morn" appeared with 4
"rebe" stenciled on her bare back
Jasmine, from Julian's studio, initiated
Eve by wearing genuine fig Leaf.
One American, giving his name as
Paul Bessemer, of Pittsburg, had pur.
chased from an artist for 1000 francs
an entry card" consisting of huge
Rabelaisian poster.
He Is Thrown Out
When he tried to enter clad as d
Roman senator a committee of stu
dents discovered him to be a stranger
They tore off his costume and tied
him to a post. A hundred women pa
raded past and each gave him slap
He was then thrown out.
At o'clock in the morning the ira
ditional procession wendell its way
through the Champs Elysee, forcing
every policeman on the way to be
kissed. Coming to the Seine two ar
lists and model jumped in and swan
across. The remainder waited for the
time honored ducking in the court
yard of the Fine Arts building, where
the whole company cooled off in the
stream from hose played by the
janitor.
Aged artists said afterward that the
night was the widest in the history Of
Paris.

ONLY 5 CENTS AN
HOUR FOR FARMERS
THAT is THE REASON THEY
ARE GOING BANKRUPT. A
REMEDY is AT HAND.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Senator
Norris bill for the Farmers Export
Financing Corporation-which would
revive farm exports and business gen
erally-ought to appeal to the hearts
of all the people.
H. J. Wallace, jr., of Des MONIES,
has been studying the returns which
tenant farmers in the mid-continent
region are receiving this year for their
work
They are getting on the average
only five cents an hour for their work
in feeding this country and much OF
the rest of the world!
This means bankruptcy. They are
going bankrupt every day. Anyone
can see that with a return of only
five cents an hour they must go bank
rupt.
Debts Press Them.
They have debts to pay. They have
capital invested. And their debts must
go unpaid, and their capital in horses,
CdlIle, HOSS, lOOlS, pOuikiy duu tAlC Inv
will be stripped from them, and they
will be reduced to a state OF impover-
ishment never seen before among our
farmers if this goes on. For there
| is no more cheap or free lands Tor
them to go upon to make new start
Therefore their plight and the ner'
its of the Norris bill to finance the
export OF their crops should appeal to
and touch your hearts, whoever you
are.
1t ought to appeal to your judg-
ment as a safeguard of our institu-
tons.
What Bill Provides.
The Norris bill proposes corpora
ton with the secretary of agriculture
and four other directors to be appoint
ed by the president with a capital of a
hundred million dollars to finance our
exports of cotton, wheat and all 9th
er agricultural products.
A hundred millions would not go
far, but the corporation can make the
business finance itself through sound
credits.
If passed now it will get into action
for the fall trade.
There is no European peasant in
such a dreadful fix as our farmers.
This is a shame which should be cur
ed. If we who are interested in the
matter move as quickly and powerful
ly as we can it will be cured. Move!

Arctic Explorer to Hunt
For Egg of Blue Goose
Bird That Laid Gold Nuggets Has:
Nothing on This One for Value.

|
Nothing on This One for Value.
BOSTON, Mass.-A hunt for the
egg of the blue goose will be one of
the odd errands of the Donald B. Nc
Mcmillan expedition to Bafin Land
this year, if the hopes of ornithologists
are realized The adult blue goose, a
variety with a grayish brown body
that gets its name from the blue-gray
of its wing coverts, is not uncommon
in the United States, but its breeding
haunts have been subject of much
speculation among bird lovers and its
nest and eggs have never been observ-
ed.
An announcement by DR.. Mcmillan
that on his last trip to the Arctic he
had noticed fedglings of these geese
aroused the interest of students of
bird life, with the result that one of
the scientists who will accompany the
present expedition will be commits
stoned to be on the lookout especially
for blue goose eggs in connection with
his other field work.
The price that one of these eggs,
hitherto unseen by civilized man,
would command has not been quoted,
but, judging from the enthusiasm dis
played I'M natural history societies over
the subject, the goose that laid the
golden egg will have nothing on this
bird
Bahin Land is believed to be the
greatest breeding place of bird life in
the Far North. In its 10000 square
miles of interior unexplored by white
men are lakes which the Esquimaus
describe as six days sledge journey in
length Cat least 100 miles), and abound
ing wild fowl.
The Mcmillan expedition will leave
here in July in the schooner Bowdoin,
specially built for the purpose, and will
spend probably fourteen months in a
study of Bafin Land along various
scientific lines.

Georgia Auto License
Receipts Off $220,552
Hard Times Reduce the Number o
Vehicles in Operation.

Nen1cIeS IN OpcTdtlOH.
The total motor vehicle receipts for
the first FIVE months in 1921 are $220,-
SEAS less than during the same period
in 1920, Secretary OF State S. Guyt
McLendon states.
The total automobile license receipts
for the first five months of 1920 were
S1,783, 707.75, while the figures for the
same period of this year are $l,563,
1850. The discrepancy IS accounted
for in large measure by the fact that
due to the stringency Of the times now
as many people are using automobiles
as formerly.
In this connection it is interesting
to note that because of the states f.
nancial condition Comptroller General
William A. Wright requested all solic-
itors general Friday to take whatever
action is necessary to have sheriffs in
delinquent counties to execute tax Fl
