The "longer lint" movement for
north Georgia, promoted by the At
lanta Commercial exchange, with
the cooperation of the State College
of Agriculture. County Bankers as
ISOLATION, and others, is said to be
gaining rapid Roadway. The ex-
change reports marked interest
among farmers as indicated by a
large number of inquiries for good
seed.
The exchange has also got in
touch with large quantities of Cleve-
land strains and Acala cotton, and
with considerable seed of College
No. in small lots located in various
parts of the state. A limited supply
of Rowden is available, with pros
poets of a larger supply later on.
These four varieties are being put
forward as representatives of the
type of cotton that will command a
premium when grown on north Geor-
gia soils, where they have already
proven their merit.
The exchange has just wired 106
banks of north Georgia as follows:

rieties. We must get rid of the NOM
grel stock and use good seed of the
right variety if north Georgia is to
regain it's reputation as a source of

County agents, bankers and other
leaders are being enlisted to organ
ize farmers for cooperative buying
of seed. BY growing only one va
riety in community, the seed will
remain pure and they can be sold
to advantage to other communities
next year.
The exchange is preparing to put
out pamphlet which the banks are
calling for to be distributed to the
farmers. The exchange is also en-
listing the cooperation of daily and

W|NDER MASS MEET
EPUD|ATES REPORTS.
Of DISORDER THERE

WINDER, Ga, Dec 1S.--Resolu.
tons branding charges of lawless-
ness in Barrow county false were
adopted at a law and order mass
meeting held in the county court
house here Friday. More than 800
persons attended the meeting.
Through strategy Of parliamentary
rule, an amendment was added to
these resolutions. which declared
that Barrow county citizens con-
demned night-riding. The substance
of this amendment was not included
in the resolutions voted down at
recent mass meeting here.
The original resolutions as drawn
up by r. L. Woodruff, upon whom
threats are alleged to have been
made by the Ku Klux Khan, were
brought before the mass meeting.
but were never voted upon. Mr..
woodruff was foreman of a grand
jury which recently conducted an
investigation in Barrow county, and
since that time he declares that his
life has several times been threaten
ed by an organization which he calls
the Ku Klux Khan.
Adjutant General Pope and sever
al aides attended the mass meeting
as representatives of the state of
Georgia to see that order was en-.
forced and that the procedure was
entirely orderly. He and his aides
were dispatched to Winder by Gov
ernor Hardwick late yesterday fol.
lowing a conference with Mr.. Wood
ruff
r. L. Woodruff and Duke Ross
also addressed the meeting. Rev.
w. H. Buchanan made a passionate
appeal and urged the Woodruff mo-
ton be adopted, and called upon ev-
cry red-blooded citizen of the county
to condemn night-riding by masked
people, who were towards and afraid
to show their faces.
The resolutions had the approval
og Mr.. Woodruff, and authorities
stated after the meeting that they
believed that the controversy was
now definitely at an end.

State May Bring Suit
Against T amt Company
On Arsenate Contract

That the state of Georgia will
bring suit against the Sherwin- Will
liams company on the calcium arsen-
ate contract made with the state
board of entomology for the year
1922 seemed likely Monday.
The boa.d has formally requested
Governor Hardwick to proceed
against the company under the con-
tract and he has turned the matter
over to Attorney General Napier,
who stated Friday that he was read
ing the contract and the document
airy evidence in the case and would
decide on a course of action in the
next few days.
The calcium arsenate contract
called for the company to deliver
this material, for use in combating
the boil weevil. in unlimited quaint
ties to the state board of entomol-
ogy at cents a pound, the board
to resell it to the farmers at cost,
using a revolving fund created for
that purpose by the legislature.
A very large quantity of calcium
arsenate was used by Georgia cot
ton growers during the past season,
very much to their advantage under
the 9-cent contract.
On August 2, according to the
boards letter to the governor, r. c.
Anderson, manager of the Sherwin-
Williams company in Georgia, went
before the board and asked them to
issue a statement urging growers in
northeast Georgia to buy wi -tever
calcium arsenate they needed to
complete the cotton growing season,
and that they buy before the first
of September, because the contract
would then expire. The board pre-
scented to the governor a stack of
checks from farmers to buy calcium
arsenate, which the board claims the
company refused to deliver.
