OFFICIALS IN DARK

Washington, March 2.-Officials at both the state department and at the British embassy professed ignorance today of the status of the case of the schooner Lewis Brothers and the death of her captain at sea for which the mate and others of the crew are being held at Key West. It was pointed out by American officials that if extradition was desired by the British, a hearing would first be necessary in magistrates court at Key West to determine whether the alleged offense was extraditable. If such was found to be the case, it was added the next step would be for officials to communicate with the state department with the request for extradition

as e. Watson, Junior senator from
Georgia and acknowledgement polit-
ical figure, is dead.

BIC HOG SEASON.
IS FORECAST IN
STATE THIS YEAR

MOULTRIE, Ga, Sept. 27.-The
south Georgia hog season opened
this week. Receipts at the big stock
yards here are expected tC be heav-
Ter than they have been during any
month through the summer season.
In + any sections Of the state, hog
sales are announced for this week.
Swift & Co. have been asked to sub
nit bids at a number of points. Re-
Gently the opening the fresh pork
season has resulted in many new bid
ders attending the hog sales. The
butchers l., big southern cities are
buying in car lots. Recently, repre-
I-ntatives of these butchers have
been among the most active bidders
at the Cooperative sales.
A survey of the Georgia, Florida
and Alabama hog territory, made by
live stock buyers here, reveals that
there will be large increase in the
number of hogs in Georgia and Flor
ida over last season, but a falling
off in Alabama. There is also found
t. be short crop of feed which prob
ably will mean that the hogs will
be moved to market sooner in the
season than usual. Hogs sold will
be lighter than last season when
they were notably heavy. There
also is the probability that there will
be more than the usual number of
pigs placed on the market, and the
state college, county agents and live
stock clubs already have started a
movement to discourage the sale of
pigs by pointing to the financial folly
Of such action. They will make an
attempt to find feed in each county
to take the surplus pigs and finish
thel4l, keeping what is considered to
e the easiest money in the hog bust
ness in the south.
Packers here say that there is no
way to forecast the winter market.
The demand for packing house prod
ucts has improved in recent weeks.
While the west is said to have a
lars hog crop, it also has a big corn
crop, and it is probable that western
farmers will be slow to market, as
-ey were last year.
Swift & Co. are making plans for
heavy winter business at their
plant here. They believe that they
will get even more hogs than they
got last season, though they are not
expecting the receipts to include as
large a per cent of heavy hogs as
they did in 1921 and the spring of
this wear ~
