Ruhr miners on strike, including
80 600 miners employed in collieries
Of the Thyssen family.
The French and Belgians today
put the finishing touches upon the
military Gordon established along
the eastern fringe of the occupied
area to prevent coal from being
shipped into Germany from the
Ruhr.

There is perhaps some evil mys-
terry in this fact, some strange
sinister delight in watching the
downfall of another human being,
but there is also a practical reason.

The coke slave must have other
coke slaves for company.
But stronger than all this, more
powerful even than that hidden
instinct for evil that impels the
man in the mire to drag as many
as he can down into the muck
with him-there is money.
Just plain money.
Bring enough victims in to the

And there is besides a regular

SEEN AS
FERTILE FIELD FOR
PRODUCING TIMBER

ATHENS Ga, Jan. 30-Georgia
will become the greatest timber-pro-
ducing state in the south if Ter peo-
pie wake up to the opportunities in
this field W. r. Nation. extension
specialist of the United States for
estry service, declared here, last
week while attending the farmers
conference.
A considerable acreage of Georgia
soil is not adapted to agriculture.
Mr.. NATION believes this land can
be advantageously used if re-forested
with the many species of timber
adapted to the Georgia climate and
topography. Much of the north and
middle Georgia land, especially along
the creek bottoms, is particularly
adapted to the growing of hardwood,
while in south Georgia and in the
coastal plains region the yellow pines
flourish.
In these sections large stretches
alreadA de-forested, or now being
cut over, are not valuable for agri-
ltural purposes. They are either
too rough, too rocky or too marshy
to be cultivated, but they will gr w
trees.
eff Georgia sets to work now" de-
clared Mr.. Nation, "and scientitlcal-
ly re-forests her now unusued and
otherwise useless land, at the end OF
fifteen years she will be deriving
large income ON this source.
Especially attractive are the posi-
bilitiej in the fine fields of south
Georgia. A high grade pine, the
slash species, can be grown, in that
section, yielding a large income from
this source in the shape of high
grade turpentine and a large yield
of t. e finest yellow pine lumber pro-
duced in America.
1.-THE great economic evolution in
Georgia." according to Mr.. Nation,
sis not confined to agriculture, but
is felt also in the increased interest
of Georgians in matters relating to
the preservation of forests. Much
has been done to create and to de-
velop an educated public sentiment
alons, this line. It much more re-
mains to be done.
Appropriately 12,000000 acres of
land in Georgia are In-mproved. Es-
timatine conservatively, fully 70 per
cent of this acreage is more adapted
to forestry than to agriculture. AT
the lowest figures, and after the
trees have. attained maturity, at
least two Ind one-half billion board
feet of timber would be yielded on
this now unused land. The present
yield is in the neighborhood OF one
and oen-half billion board feet per
annum.
''These figures are strik :. They
take no account of the other source
of revenue which the timber indus
try offers, such as turpentine, resins,
wood alcohol, fuel and TIE numerous
raw products used for medicinal pur-
poses.
Tree butchery has been practiced
by the landowners and the saw mill
operator in Georgia. TIL bureau of
forestry was created to remedy this
situation and prevent further waste.

State College of Agriculture is aid

A WOMAN of thirty writes me a

is true, as she has been told
that there are some parts of the
country where there is a more pIen-
tiful supply of males marriageably
inclined than in others, and if so
where these places are located.
Alas, sister, 1 fear that you have
been misinformed. If there is any
Elysium for the bachelor maid where
eligible men wait around with wed

that if there were any such Promis-

have press-agented it's opportunities

There was a time when the far
west was the happy hunting ground
for ladies desiring mates, and when
any woman who wasn't humpback-
ed or cross-eyed could count on
bringing down a husband at the first
shot, but those good old days belong
to the past. Nowadays, the femi-
nine pothunter has overrun the west,
and the western man has gotten to
be a wary bird that is as hard to
capture as the eastern species.
East is west, and north and south

to maturity, and that there are
plenty of men to go around as hus-
bands, if only they would go around.
What, then, shall the woman do

UNION STOCK YARDS. Chicago, Jan. 81
Hog supply indicated again today that the
country is holding the stock back for high
er prices. The runs at the local yards, as
well as at principal markets combined fell
short of last Wednesdays total and sell
erS had less than ., 900 held over from
the previous session. Light runs during
the week caused boost in values. Present
values for cattle show decline from the
close of last week. Shearing lambs are
now selling above the values obtained for
the hest killing stock.
Receipts were 5000 cattle; $4,000 hogs
$4,000 sheep, and 1000 calves.
Demand for steers was Slow throughout
the day. Values were generally steady for
the few good lots going around 5000, but
the trade was weak for other kinds. Bulk
of steers went at SS.306950. This showed
the low point for the week. Cows and
heifers sold slowly at steady to weak prices,
while Gamers and bulls were unchanged.
Bologna bulls sold at S4.5Q@4.S0, Calves
were about steady. Shippers paid $12.5
for good lots. Light vealers were a little
slow at times. but the prices showed lit
tie change.
Light runs were reported hUre ami ut
other western markets. and local trstA was
five to ten cents higher from the start.
Demand for heavy stock was slow, how
ever. Choice light hogs sold mostly at
SS.75@S.8j, with some strictly prime ami
mails at $500. Medium weight butchers
went at $8.35MS.50. The top of the trade
remained at $3.50. Heavy packing hogs
sold at $7.l06t7.40 with good lots at $40.
Choice pigs made $50.
Killing lambs were steady to strong.
Some choice lots went at $1J6115.10, which
was fully as much as the values obtained
the day before. but feeding lambs did not
show quality good enough to reach yester

after choice country wheat, and ignore
offers of elevator grades. Red wheat is
also sought after. The new crop position
