GREATEST WAR EVER
WAGED ON A BUG
WILL BE MADE ON PINK BOIL
WORM. ENEMY ONE OF MA
TION'S BIGGEST CROPS.

CHICAGO, lila fight to the
finish against the Mexican pink boil
worm. which is threatening the
South's cotton industry with destruc-
ton, will be waged by the combined
efforts of the Federal Government and
the State authorities of the affected
states.
The decision was reached at an All
South conference on the pink boil
worm Just concluded at Dallas, Texas,
attended by scientists, planters, feder-
al and state authorities, bankers, bus
mess men and trained entomologists.
The worm was brought into the
United States from Mexico four years
ago, and is now established in Texas,
Louisiana and New Mexico.
The whole cotton belt is alarmed at
the danger. Scientists claim that the
insect does greater damage than the
boil weevil, which now destroys $751;
100000 worth OF cotton annually.
The conference was held at Dallas,
with DR.. c. L. Narlatt, chairman OF
the federal board Washington, d. e.,
in charge. Full powers were entrusted
to the board to take measures as may
be necessary in one great united drive
to eradicate the insect,
The control work has so tar cost
the government more than S2,0OO,0O0
and the state of Louisiana $5OO,OOO
and Texas 100000.

$825,OOO PAID FOR
PEARLS BY DODGE
NECKLACE, ONCE BELONGING
TO EMPRESS, BOUGHT BY
AUTO MANUFACTURES.

DETROIT.-Horace f. Dodge, the
automobile manufacturer, purchased a
short time before his death the famous
string OF pearls that once belonged to
Catherine II, Empress OF Russia, as a
gift for his wife, according to state
ment given out here Thursday night
by Howard B. Bloomer, chairman Of
the board of directors OF Dodge Broth
ers, and executor of the estate OF Mr.,
Dodge. The firm of Cartier, Inc, New
York, was paid $825,OOO for the neck
lace, Mr.. Bloomer said.
Ownership of the pearls, said to be
the most perfect collection in the
world, was opened to speculation re-
Gently by the filing OF suit in New
York by French jewelry firm that
alleged it had been defrauded of thous-
ands of dollars when Cartier, Inc, dis
posed of them. The price had been re-
ported as high as $1,500,000.
In announcing that the necklace was
in the Dodge family Mr.. Bloomer
made public letter written by him to
the Cartier firm, in which he offered
to assist the firm in proving that 1925,
900 was the price paid by Mr.. Dodge.
The French firm contends that a larg-
er sum was realized.

FIFTY MILLION YEARLY
LABOR BOARD SETS FORTH
NEW WORKING RULES GOV
ERNING EMPLOYEES.
TO BECOME EFFECTIVE FEB.

Sweeping Changes Made in the Wage
Schedule of Clerks and Station
Agents. Principle of the Eight
Hour Day Recognized.
! CHICAGO, Ill.-Abolition of penal
overtime payments until after the
ninth hour OF work and authorization
of split tricks" instead OF compelling
iovertime payments or two shifts for
intermittent work over a span of more
than eight hours are important chang
es in rules governing railroad clerical
and terminal employees issued by the
United States railroad labor board
+ The new rules, which become effect
live Feb. /, supercede the national
agreement made by the federal admin
istration with the Brotherhood OF
Railway and Steamship Clerks,
Freight Handlers, Express and Sta
ton Employees, which has been in eff
feet since IAN !, 1920. About 5000
Iemployes are affected.
Application of the new split trick
rules and elimination of time and one
half pay for the ninth hour are ex-
pected to save the railroads millions
Iof dollars, labor board statisticians es-
timating that the amount would reach
ISIS, 100000 annually. During the rule
hearings many roads testified that
Engagement train announcers and
.other employees doing intermittent
work, many of them young boys or
aged men formerly paid SIS a month,

IA
Overtime will now be eliminated
Despite this concession to the rail
roads the three board members repre-
senting the railroads. Samuel Hig-
gins, ]. H. Elliott and Horace Baker
-dissented from the majority opinion.
They contended the nature of the
work demands a 10-hour day and that
allowance of time and one-half within
this period is unjust, unfair, unrea-
sonable."
The rule authorizing split trick"
will not only save the railroads much
money, il is said, but will also enable
them to employ many agents at small
stations that have been closed 1t pro-
vides that employees may be required
to work eight hours at any time dur
ing a period OF II hours.
In three recent decisions affecting
different classes of employees the labor
board has established three different
standards for overtime pay. The. shop
crafts were granted time and one-half
for overtime after eight hours, but the
maintenance Of way employees decis-
ion, while recognizing the eight-hour
day, provided for time and one-half
only after the 10th hour.

WEIRD THINGS ARE
PREDICTED BY WOMAN
CLAIRVOYANT WHO HAS AT
TANNED FAME SAYS 1922 WILL
BE RIOT OF DEBAUCHERY.

PARASITIC year 1922 is going to
be one grand riot of wild debauchery,
according to Nine. De Telene, who
has taken the place of the late Nine.
De Thebes as the recognized spokes~
woman of French astrologers.
1t comes from the fact patent to all
those to whom argazing is an exact
science that old man Mars is peering
at, Venus in the most approved vii
lain style He did that several times
in the course of history, Roman and
other, but this time there's no mis-
taking his intent.
Venus will be under a pernicious
sign, which will be governed by
Mars" is how Nine. De Telene puts
ii in her almanac. Asked to explain
little more fully, Nine De Telene,
remarking the slightly incredulous air
of her interviewer, replied
Mon cher monsieur, this is no
joke. Astrology is not something to
be laughed at What | predict is alb
solutely serious. | am sorry, but it IS
not for me TO read anything that is
in the stars, but just what | see there.
Every time Mars and Venus have
been under the signs which will gov
ern them in 1922 liberty has become
license, all restraint has been cast
aside, immortality has ruled. 1t will
be the same i'll 1922"
Another prediction. 1t will be the
wettest year America has ever seen.
But the enforcers Of the Volstead act
need not worry. The astrologer means
that there will be lots Of rain through
out the United States. Otherwise, she
said, America has nothing to look for
ward TO- except prosperity.

B. WEEVIL GIVEN TWO
TRY-OUTS IN ICE PLANT
STILL LIVES AFTER 63 HOURS
AND IS AS FRISKY AS BE-
FORE THE EXPERIMENT.

Some ideas as to how much cold
weather the cotton boil weevil can
stand may be obtained by reading the
following from our veracious con-
temporary, the Hartwell Sun:
The sturdiness of the pesky boil
weevil has been very clearly and
forcibly shown in Hartwell by two
experiments conducted by VIII S.
Hayes, at the Clnkscale Ice Plant.
A. d. Brown, of Canon, brought a
weevil of his raising down last week
and told Mr. Hayes to put him
a fair trial, we cali it.
Placing the bug in small can he
placed it on a block of ice which re-
manned there for y hours, the can be-
ing frozen to the ice when taken off.
After putting the weevil i'll the sun
for few minutes he very alertly
shook himself, looked around to see
if the 1922 crop was ready and crawl
ed off
Mr.. Hayes was not pleased, how
ever, and taking the same weevil he
canned" him again. This time he put
him in the brine tank with the ice,
the coolest place in the plant--he
stayed there over 63 hours, and Mr..
Hayes had to pull hard to get the can
loose from the ice.
Bringing the weevil to the Sun Of
fee Monday he turned him loose on
table in the sun-and as if moth
ing had happened other than slight
change in the weather, he picks HIM
self up and walks off again. This time
he was allowed to go his way, having
proven to all that he was fully able to
take care of himself.
Yes the boil weevil is hardy, al
right-too hardy to suit us.

POISON GHOST is LAID
LOW BY THE GAMERS

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Science
has laid low the ghost Of ptomaine
poisoning, according to members
of the National Gamers Associa-
ton, who are here to attend the
fifteenth annual convention of the
organization. Food poisoning, as it
is ordinarily understood, it was de-
clared, is often due to improper diet
or the careless handling of food on
the part of the consumer. Speakers
at a dinner declared that the can
ners are spending $4,000 annually
in original research and that some
of the notable results have been
final eradication of the danger due
to botulinus, especially from cam
ed ripe olives.

BEER SELLS AT ONLY
ONE CENT A QUART
NO SHORTAGE OF FOAMING
DRINK IN GERMANY. SUIT
OF CLOTHES COST $500.

The eccentricities of
the money exchange and the power
of the American dollar in Germany to-
day are almost beyond imagination.
OF course, anyone in America who
reads the newspapers knows that on
the foreign money market the German
mark is lowering at 200 for the dol
lar. But what is the buying power OF
one of these cheap marks?
One may gain some idea from this :;
| have been in Munich less than a
day, but have stopped at first class
hotel for a night, have eaten two
meals, spent two hours in a barber
shop and my total expenses thus far
have not reached 81.
Lives High on IS Cents.
The hotel room is one with bath
and comparable to a room in any first
class American hotel For breakfast
| ate ham and eggs, bread and but
ter, two pots of coffss and a piece OF
pastry. For lunch | had soup, wild
duck, potatoes. salad, cheese, wine,
pastry and coffee In the barber shop
had a hair cut, shave, shampoo,
tonic. massage and manicure. Total
expenses. 10 marks, or IS cents. OF
course. Berlin is larger city than
Munich, and it may be that living ex-
penses are not so exorbitant i'll the
capital.
In Germany, where Adolphus Busch,
Schlitz, Pabst and Miller served their
beer is quite an item.
The best beer to be had sells at ! mark
for a stein that contains fully pint.
That amounts to Z cent stein or |
cent quart. Were one to go to the
brewery with a dollar it probably
would require a motor truck to carry
away what one could buy.
Suit Sells for SIS.
Never did money burn my pockets
so much as in Munich. A glance in
the display windows at merchandise
and its prices makes one want to go
in and buy out the store. A suit OF
clothes can be purchased for SIS or SO
and jewelry prices are OF a similar

dirt cheap in Germany he is talking

May Be Revolutionized
Representative w. B. Parks re-
turned from Atlanta Friday morning,

ing of special joint committee, COM
posed of five members of the state SEN
ate and ten from the house OF repre-
lsentatives. in the office of Gov. Hard
wick to begin the work OF making
la thorough study of various proposed
tax systems with the special view OF
Ireconciling the numerous ideas adj
lyanced in the last session OF the gen
Ieral assembly.
Governor Hardwick explained what
his proposed net income tax system
means. He believes that a majority
will favor it, but he does not expect
Ia unanimous report.
Tax Commissioner Fullbright also
favors the governors income tax plan,
and in addition he favors separation
of property into classes with a differ

favors classification.
After discussion by various mem
bers of the committee it was decided
that the work will best be facilitated

by the collection and PREPARATION OF
such data as may be made available.
Chairman Carswell was instructed to
employ a clerk for the use OF the COM
mission and he (the chairman), the
governor and Commissioner Full
bright were directed to obtain from
all the other states which have chang
ed from the old ad valorem system
to an income system their experiences
under the change and the systems I'M

is to be whipped into shape, under di-
rection Of the tax commissioner and
the chairman, and mailed as fast as
if is prepared to each member of the
Joint committee.
Next Meeting in Sixty Days.
In about sixty days the committee
will arrange one or more. meetings to
be held in Atlanta, at which they will
invite various business interests, such
as the Bankers Association, the mer-

committee, go over the data secured
and thresh out the various ideas, max
ing such suggestions as are practi-
cable and feasible upon which Geor-

The committee as a whole evidenced
a deliberate and earnest interest in the
question of the proposed change in

Railroads of the North
West Face Their Annual
Battle With the Element,
Huge Rotary Flows and Steam SHOW
els Remove Millions of Tons of
Snow From Dangerous Curves.

Assailed by the earliest heavy snow
lin wears, railroads in the northwest
ARE engaged in the annual winter bat
tile with the clements in the Cascade
and Rocky Mountain divisions Mil
lions of tons of snow are moved ev-
erv winter in the northwest to clear
the railroad tracks for traffic. To COM
bat the drifts and frozen fills hun
dreds Of standard rotary plows are
kept continually at work during
storms.
In the Bitter Root range, in west
ern Idaho, snow drifts to depth OF
ten exceeding the capacity of the larg-
est rotaries. In such cases workers
drill holes into the drifts, removing
the snow in huge cakes. Besides the
rotary type OF snow-fghters the JUL
steam exCaVator, having large cork
screw projecting from the center OF
the head-end, is used on all roads.
This machine can break up the hard
est packed drifts and throws snow
40 to 90 feet from the right of way
In the Cascade Mountain division
Of the Northern Pacific last winter
large-sized steam shovel was utillz-
ed to clear a badly filled stretch OF
track. The Milwaukee made new
departure when it used small quaint
ties OF INT in some huge snowslides.
All the dangerous curves and cuts
in the western mountains have been
protected by snowbeds, but during Sc
we're storms the sheds fill with snow
that is more difficult to remove than
any on the open mountain sides. jan
uarv and February are the worst
months in the northwest, and the
snow often is from 10 to so feet deep
on the summit passes. The heavy
snowfall of last November is beng
added to by every successive storm.
