Ernest and WiIber Koon, sons of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Koon, E. Twelfth
ST. arrived at their home Saturday
from GAINESVILLE, where they have been
attending the state school for the
blind since March. The boys made
rapid progress in their studies at the
GAINESVILLE school, making a grade dur
ing their short time there, and they
now are able to read quite readily by
means of raised letters and the touch
system. They are thirteen and eleven
years of age, respectively, and are al
binos, with pink colored eyes, which,
as in the case of nearly all albinos,
are very weak. The boys are not
blind, but their sight is so defective
that they could make but little prog
ress in the city schools.

DENIES Fertilizer
COMBINE CHARGES

RICHMOND, Va, Aug. los.
Dabney Crenshaw, vice president Of
Virginia Carolina Chemical COM
pany, denied today that there
was a trust among American raSnu-
facturers of fertilizers dealing with
foreign concerns to the exclusion OF
American producers as charged in
the senate last week by Senator
Smoot.
Because the American producers
were unable to compete in price and
quantity, Mr.. Crenshaw said, 81
American manufacturers signed con-
tracts with German and French
concerns for their entire supplies Of
potash last fall. but the contracts
ended last April.
"There was no idea Of restraint
of trade in making such contracts"
said MI. Crenshaw. "On the other
hand we permitted the small manu-.
facturer to purchase potash in
small quantities at the same prica
we paid for it in great quantities.
The whole thing was done as much
in the interest of the farmer as for
the manufacturer"

When and How to Seed Bermuda
Onions

E. M. T., bonneville, Ca,
writes: When should Bermuda
onion seed be planted so as to
have the plants ready to set in
the open ground the last of o.
tober? Will it do to plant the
seed now in the open?
We do not think success would at
tend your efforts to SOW Bermuda
onions at this time of the year. This
work should not be undertaken in
your section of Georgia before o.
tober. If the sed are put in ground
that is well enriched and in good
condition at that time of the year
termination should take place very
soon, and it will not be long before
the onions will be large enough to
transplant. They are in good condi-
ton for transplanting when they at
tain the size of small lead pencil
You can transplant them into rows
eighteen inches apart. The sowing
Of comparatively small amount of
seed will insure the development Of
a very large number of sets. Onions
seeded in October in the open and
transplanted as soon as practicable
should make rapid development
and be ready to market in ninety to
one hundred and twenty days after
tranSnlantine.

THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON,

CHEESEMAN'S secretary there were no
| clerks provided for them at that
| time), but I hustled out Of my wrap
| per, got into street dress, put
fresh clothes on the boy, got out to
the street cars and made the trip to
the capitol as soon as I could. My
hurry was great.
| My husband was on the lookout
| for me, and we went together to
| the room where the machine was
| fixed on the wall and connected with
the United States government print
| ing office, one mile distant
| Many people were watching and
waiting, and after awhile I was priv
| LEGGED to talk over the phone and re-
ceived an answer from the person
at the other end, inside the govern
ment printing Office.
| It was wonderful! The voice was
clear, distinct and readily under
stood I had thrills of delight to be
allowed to see and hear. When I re-
turned to the hotel I spread the
news. The wonderful thing had let
me talk a mile! I still remember
my amazement and delight in tell
ing the story. "It can talk over
| a mile" said it over, and over again
to those I knew. The machine was
adopted instantly. 1t could talk a
hundred miles very soon; then a
thousand miles, etc, etc. There never
was an invention, in my knowledge,
that went ahead with such a rush
and with so many uses for it. 1t
was cheap enough for wonder, and
they were manufactured as fast as
possible. !,
can smile even now to recollect
how 1 scanned the outside Of the
house owned by Mr.. Alexander Ora
ham Bell when I made my weekly
trip to Mt. Vernon church, the only
southern Methodist church in the
city.
I would walk slowly by hoping for
a chance to see this maker"
close at hand. l did see him, but
not there. This great inventor died
| last week at his summer home in
Nova Scotia. He reached the age
! Of seventy eight, and I am over
eighty seven. He was comparatively
a young man when his browning
victory came to him, for I was only
| forty-three when he electrified the
country by this magnificent wonder
maker''-the telephone.
He had the desire to be buried in
i, Nova Scotia on the top Of high
mountain, and his coffin rests in a
solid rock vault, cut out of the top
of the mounain. His royalties from
the patent of this invention must
have been immense-almost without
limit. He never lost his head with
his almost unexampled success. He
liked to be an American, and allowed
his fame to illustrate his beloved
country.
AS the ages roll on his fame will
grow brighter. Along with Edison
and Marconi-they will always be
noted as our great men.

To Disinter Body
OF Man for Purpose
OF Identifying It

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10.-Into
the silent city of Cypress Lawn
cemetery, which skirts the hills Of
San Mateo county, official grave
diggers, under authority of the
San Francisco police department,
today entered to exhume a casket
said to contain the body of Joseph
Furey, international bunco man,
who died recently in Texas peni-
Tertiary.
The plan of action was deter
mined on yesterday when DR.. Will
liam o. Hassler, city health officer,
received request from Thomas
Lee Woolwine, district attorney, of
Los Angeles, to disinter the body
for Identification.
Woolwines request is actuated
by a suspicion that the body buried
on July "a was not Furey. Wool
wine wants an Identification made
to determine whether or not his
suspicion is rightly founded.
Since Furey has deceived authori-
ties before with the usual burial
rites and later has come to life in
some strange manner with new
operations in the bunco game, Wool
wine has decided on a policy of
safety first" before definitely drop
ping three charges of grand lar
ceny that face Furey in Los An

Inglewood Raid Called
"A Night Of Horror y
By One Of Victims

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 10-"A
night of horror" was a phrase ap.
piled to the Inglewood raid Of April
%, last, by Fidel Elduayen, one of
it's victims, whose cross examina-
ton was expected today at the
trial of 81 alleged knights of the
Ku Klux Khan, charged with at
lacking the Elduayen home and
bonded winery.
Fidel and his brother, Matthias,
gave the same version of the ar
rival of a band of masked men at
their home, the command to be
shown 'still' they claimed was
on the premises; the seizure and
manhandling of the brothers and
the Intellectual efforts Of the raid
ers to have them accepted as prison
ers at two small town police sta
tons, before finally leaving them
six miles from home, with threats
of death if they told of what had
been done to them.
On cross examination Matthias
flatly denied there had been any
violation of the Volstead act on the
Elduyen premises.
