EGG WARNING
STIRS PLAINS
Beware June 24,' Saws Mysteri.
Gus Message On Egg Found
Sunday

All Plains was in the throes of
intense excitement all Sunday after
noon, and much of Americus today,
over an egg bearing a mysterious
message of warning whIich was
found about noon Sunday in the hen
house of S. H. Zimmerman, postmas-
ter of Plains, and declared by him to
have been freshly laid by one of mis-
hens, young dominick, which he
saw fly off the nest just before he
found the egg. The egg was warm
and moist, he said, showing it had
just been laid.
The egg was of ordinary size and
shape, of white color, but on it in
letters as distinct and sharp as
though printed upon the shell were
the words, Beware June 24!' and
under the word June" was ditto
mark followed by figure a, the date
the egg was found. The characters
were in a reddish brown about the
color of a Rhode Island Red hens
egg, very distinctive on the clear
white of the shell. They were neither
raised nor indented. DR.. Thad Wise,
| Of Plains, applied an acid to try to
dissolve the color, but was unable to
affect it. After being shown all
about Plains Sunday, it was brought
to Americus and was on display to-
day at the Windsor Pharmacy, OF
which Brownie Zimmerman, a
brother of S. H. Zimmerman, is one
of the proprletors.
A number of eggs bearing mysterl-
Gus messages have been found in
Georgia nests in recent weeks, fol
lowing the publication Of the secrets
of a method Of marking them by the
use Of wax and acid. 1t is suggested
by some that Mr.. Zimmerman in this
case may have been the victim Of a
hoax, the egg having been put INTO
the nest by a practical joker, and
having become warm, as he found 1t,
from the hen having covered it while
sitting on the nest for a time. Hsw-
ever, he says it is too much for nm
to explain. And the public Is wag-
ging its head in wonder.

WAR CONTRACT
FRAUD CHARGED.

WASHINGTON, June - A war
rant has been issued by United States
Commissioner Hit for the arrest of
J. l.. Phillips, chairman of the Re-
publican National State Committee
for Georgia, charging fraud in the
execution of war contracts. Beyond
confirming reports that the warrant
had been issued, Commissioner Hit
refused to discuss the case.
Phillips, as a member of the firm
of Phillips and Stevens, obtained
surplus lumber, the firm having been
designated by conference of lum-
ber dealers to act as their agents.
Representative Woodruff, Repub-
lican, Michigan, in a speech recently
in the house asserted that official
reports had been filed by government
auditors in September, 1921, showing
that Phillips and Stevens still owed
the government under this contract
more than 81 $4,000 and that so far
as he could learn INC proceedings
whatever had been instituted in this
connection"
Although it has been generally re-
ported during the past week that the
special grand jury now sitting here
on war fraud cases had been engaged
in consideration of evidence relating
to sale of surplus lumber, but there
has been no statement from any Of
fetal source to indicate whether the
Phillips and Stevens contract had
been among those presented.
So far as could be learned, the
grand jury has yet to hand down it's
first indictment and issuance of
warrant prior to indictment was de-
clared by some officials to be un-
usual though not unprecedented
The lumber contract obtained by
Phillips and Stevens called disposal
OF spruce, pine, hemlock, and fir
lumber only, according to the report
cited by Representative Woodruff.
He asserted that the firm had OBJ
I tanned and sold surplus supplies of
more than SO varieties, including
such valuable hard woods.
Mr.. Phillips resides in Thomasville,
Ga, in which section he is reported
to own extensive tracts of timber. He
also has home and business in
Philadelphia.

BIG INCREASE IN
PEACH CURCULIOS
Insect Laboratory Warns Grow
els Of Trouble Unless Spray
Is Used

The following bulletin, telling OF
increased infestation of curcullos IN
peaches, has just been issued by the
Fort Valley government and state
laboratory.
There has been a rapid increase
in the number of adult curculios IN
peach orchards of Central Georgia
during the past few days, due to
the emergence Of new generation
Of adults from the soil. The con
tinued rains during the past week
have greatly facilitated the develop
ment of the insects and have prOduc-
ed a condition Of the soil favorable
for their emergence. Without doubt
the emergence Of new beetles is much
heavier in orchards where the drops
were not frequently picked up a
destroyed.
"The Saturday morning (June 81
jarring in the experimental orchard
gave 522 beetles on one hundred and
seven trees. The jarring on May &c
on the same trees gave 1919 beetles,
May 25 "A; May % 80; May 20 81
May Is 20. These figures show the
sharp increase during the past weel

new beetles.

inability to disc for curculio pupas

These shades have been shipped, and
