CLOTHES WORTH
100000 STOLEN
THIEVES CLEAN OUT ENTIRE
STOCK OF CHICAGO STORE.
WATCHMAN GAGGED.

CHICAGO. = Clothing merchants
have been urging the public through
the newspapers to come in and select
new garments and also stock up with
nice articles in the way of muf1ers,
shirts socks, handkerchefs and other
suitable Christmas gifts for friends.
SO an enterprising and earnest band
of early shoppers, sometime during
the night, went into a vacant building
adjoining the new emporium of Stern
Bros, clothiers, cut their way
through the skylight bound and gagg-
ed the Waterman and made off with
practically the entire stock, valued at
$4,000. The gang had parked a truck
in the rear of the vacant factory build
ing and evidently loaded it to its ca
pacity. 1t took them six hours to
move out the stock Some time later
the Waterman, who had been bound
to a pillar in the basement, managed
to free himself and notify the police.
The Stern Clothing company had
opened the new store two weeks ago
and urged the public Whereabouts to
step in and look over the bright new
stock. Today all the proprietors had
left was a litter of torn, discarded
boxes and the knowledge that they
must have had an attractive line OF
goods.

GEORGIA MAY HAVE
BIG FISH HATCHERY
SITE is LIKELY TO BE NEAR
MIDTOWN IN LANIER COUN-
TY. BILL TO CONGRESS.

Not only will there be prompt and
abundant supply of fish to replenish
the streams in the drought area of
Georgia. but the state will have one
of the largest fish hatcheries in the
world under a bill to be presented in
the coming session of congress by
Senator w. J. Harris. The bill has al
ready been prepared and has the APP
proval of Commissioner of Fisheries
Henry O'Malley and of Secretary of
Commerce Herbert Hoover. In addi-
ton, Senator Harris has discussed the
matter with President Coolidge.
The passage of the bill, which
seems altogether likely in view of its
high Endorsement, would result in the
governments acquiring several thous-
and acres of land in south Georgia,
preferably around Milltown Lanier
county, if the tract can be obtained on
satisfactory terms. The project con-
templates growing practically all kinds
of fish indigenous to the southeast,
and billions of eggs would be brought
to the plant to hatch fish to supply
the entire section. A plan by which
the owners of large ponds and lakes
in north Georgia may cooperate with
the government in propagating fish IS
also under consideration.

BANKS IN ATLANTA
SHOW GREAT GAINS
INCREASES IN DEPOSITS ARE
SHOWN IN BOTH CURRENT
AND SAVINGS ACCOUNTS.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Dollars on de
post tell of good times. Prosperous
cities usually are known for the great
capital in banking institutions.
Atlanta's banks show tremendous
increases in deposits over the figures
of one year ago. One bank-the Fourth
National Bank of Atlanta now recog-
nized as one OF the largest financial
institutions in the south, shows large
increases both in current accounts and
in its savings department. Cams IN
savings deposits are matter OF COM
ment in financial circles.
Growth OF Atlanta banks as well as
of banks in other sections OF the
south. figures of which have been
made public here, is evidence of the
prosperity to be found in Dixie, and IS
the kind of growth that reacts very ia
vorablv to a community.
Millions on deposit in the Atlanta
banks. it is claimed here, represents
this situation.2 Dollars in circulation,
travelling from one man to another,
from one business house to some 9th
err business house from the laboring
man to the grocer, from the investor
TO the developer, and so on with the
same dollar doing service Tor many
dollars. The millions on deposit are
financing many projects. They are
furnishing huge payrolls. They keep
the wheels of business moving.

GEORGIA LEADS ALL
IN SURFACED ROADS
HAS MORE THAN 1890 MILES,
ACCORDING TO THE U. S. BU-
REAU OF PUBLIC ROADS

The mileage of surfaced roads in the
United States is nearing the 100000
mark, according to the bureau Of pub
lie roads of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
The report shows that only two
states have more miles than Georgia.
They are Indiana and Ohio, Indiana
with 36,112 miles and Ohio with 27,84l
miles to Georgia's 1882 miles.
Minnesota follows Georgia with TO-
$50, and New York is next with 49,
259, while South Carolina is shown to
have only 482 miles.
Some weeks ago the state reports
indicated that there were 128,347 miles
OF surfaced roads in the state systems
at the end OF 1924 and similar subse-
quent reports from the states indi-
Gated that mileage of surfaced county
roads was 339,558, making a total of
467 ,905 miles. While the probable
estimate Of county roads is not so ac-
curate as that OF the state roads, the
above figure is probably not too large.
Since 31,541 miles OF roads was sur
faced in 1924 by the safes and counties
and it is known that progress has been
equally as good in 1925, it is probable
that the construction season now draw
ing to close will increase the surtac-
ed mileage to more than 495, 900.
In this estimate a portion OF the
years work was allowed for resurfac-
ing and for higher Improvements OF
the roads already reported as having
been surfaced.
In addition to the surfacing Of con-
siderable mileage OF roads a great deal
of draining and grading has been done
There were 236.294 miles of such
road at the end OF 1924, and OF this
1869 miles had been constructed dur
ing that year.
These figures indicate that the road
mileage OF this kind is not far from the
10000 mark.

PROPOSED CUTS In
AUTOMOBILE TAXES
WILL RESULT IN GREAT saw
ING TO OWNERS OF CARS.
ACCESSORIES INCLUDED.

If congress adopts the cuts in au-
tomobile taxes, tentatively approved
by the ways and means committee,
not only will $S0,000000 be left in the
pockets of automobile owners which
otherwise would go to the federal gov
ernment in the following twelve
months, but other far reaching bene-
fits will accrue to certain classes with
the added possibility OF savings for
those who own no motor cars.
What the committee approved was
this program: Elimination of the w
per cent tax on tires, accessories and
repair parts; elimination OF the Z per
cent sales tax on motor trucks; reduc-
ton from 5 to 3 per cent on the sales
tax on passenger cars, and elimination
of the occupational tax on owners OF
automobiles for hire, which is $40 per
annum for cars seating up to seven
and $40 on those seating more than
seven persons.
Here are the treasury estimates OF
losses for 1926
Tires, parts, etc, $25,000,000
Trucks, $9,000,000
Passenger cars, 100000
Occupational tax, $1,75O,OOO.
Total, $82,150,000.
The first three items, totaling $780,
100000, would be direct savings dis
tributed among all motor car owners.
The $1,750,000 occupational tax total
would remain in the pockets of those
who otherwise would have paid it.
Eighty million dollars is tidy sum
even in this day and time.
And the savings will be enjoyed not
only by the man who purchases new
car, but also by the car owner who
needs new tires, or who happens to
back into the garage door post and
has to replace a fender, and likewise
all those who decide to crafty the
constant desire for new and various
accessories.

) DIR. Edwin E. Slosson, director Of

partment of chemistry of the Univer-

They point out that the world need

out that hydrogen could be cheaply

HEAVY COTTON LOSS
TO GROWERS DUE TO
IMPROPER GINNING
CLASS OF STAPLE IN MANY
INSTANCES is LOWERED AS
MUCH AS TWO GRADES.
FROM S TO 10 DOLLARS BALE
Careless Handling, Improper Wrap
ping and Indifferent Storage Also
Reduce Value of Crop, According to
Government Bulletin.

Improper ginning OF cotton lowers
the grade of the product one to two
grades with resultant loss OF from IS
to $40 a bale, the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture has found in
study of ginning methods. Careless
handling, poor cleaning and ginning,
insufficient and improper wrapping,
Indifferent storage, resulting in "coun-
try damage" all combine, says the
department, to reduce the market val
ue of this important and valuable crop.
The department believes that it is
possible to eliminate a part of the loss
to the farmer by bringing to his at
tention the losses which occur from
the time the cotton arrives at the gin
until it reaches the mill. large part
of the expense OF which is borne in
directly by him. To correct this sit
uation, at least partially the following
recommendations are made:
BY concerted action farmers should
be able to establish better methods
of ginning, maintain pure planting
seed, and obtain more uniform and
better handling of their cotton, thus
enabling them to market their crops
to better advantage. 1t is to be hoped
that gin manufacturers will develop
some device that will assure quick
and accurate method OF keeping sep
arate the products from each wagon
load of seed cotton.
Should Know Their Business.
Public ginners may know the very
best technic of ginning cotton, and
yet be unable to put it into practice
because OF the pressure and needless
demands of their patrons. Ginners
should not only know their machin-
cry but also have a knowledge of the
theory OF ginning so that they may
recognize and properly appraise the
claims OF rival manufacturers OF the
machinery they buy and use.
Cotton growers should have a
knowledge OF the ts@hnic OF ginning,
since ginning Is the8process to which
cotton must be subjected in order to
prepare it for market Such a knowl-
edge will not only enable the grow
ers to recognize the damage that care
less ginners may be doing their crop,
but will enable them to cooperate
more fully with the progressive gin
ners to the end that every bale OF cot
ton ginned in the south may be in
its most attractive form and represent
the best grade it is possible to make
of the growers product, and therefore
be at its greatest value"

study have been in a bulletin, copies
which may be obtained free upon re-
quest to the department at Washing
