Big Lumber Concerns
To Conserve Timber

Atlanta, Ga.-Big lumber compa-
MES of the West are looking forward
so, 100 and $50 years and are re-
planting more trees than they are
cutting down, forest conservationists
here today pointed out 1t is shown
that they intend to develop their in
dustry along permanent lines. Some
of them are even working up, at lit
tie or no profit, wood which was for
merly wasted, so as to promote tim
Der conservation, it was stated here.
The National Committee on Wood
Utilization, it was stated here, pro.
poses to save the people $100,000,-
900 to $15O,O00,000 annually on
their lumber bills, by using more OF
the trees which go to the saw mills
Instead of cutting lumber into even
lengths and widths, as is now done
all the wood will be used no matter
of what length.
A survey made by the Forest Pro
ducts Laboratory of the national de-
partment of agriculture, it was
stated by government agents here,
shows that in small house construc-
ton, almost SO per cent of the lum-
Der could be of odd lengths. Lum-
Der is seldom cut shorter than eight
feet, yet one-third of that used in
building construction is less than that
length.

WON SUCCESS BOTH AS
ARTIST AND INVENTOR

Samuel Finley Breese Morse had
two distinct careers and climbed from
the bottom to success in each OF
them. He is best known for his IN
vention of the telegraph, but before
he even dreamed of the invention, he
had experienced the complete career
of an artist. He began as strolling
peddler. barely keeping clothes on his
back and food in his stomach by
painting portraits of New England
country folk as he wandered from
village to village. In less than a
score of years, by logged persistence,
he became the foremost portrait
painter in America before whom sat
presidents and generals and states
men, and he was head of the National
Academy of Design. His work was
acclaimed at home and abroad.
Then, just at moment when he
reached the height of fame as an
artist, just when he was returning
from triumphs in Europe, with
bright prospects for financial ease
and still higher honors, an inspira-
ton from the clouds caused him to
renounce all he had gained and begin
again-this time as an inventor with
a great idea. = Popular Science

LONG DISTANCE PHONE
RATES ARE REDUCED

Atlanta, Ga.-Long distance tele-
phone rates in Georgia will be re-
duced between the hours of O'Clock
to $3.50 o'clock at night. The rate
will be rs per cent of the day rate.
/ A revision of the reduced rates by
! the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company has just been au-
thorized in an order issued by the
Georgia Public Service Commission.
The purpose of phone officials in
seeking the change was to dispatch
the heavy load that begins at $50
O'Clock at night, when the rate is so
per cent of the day cost. The change
makes possible for the public re-
duced rates one hour and thirty min
utes in the evening.
1t was shown that the cost of put
ting up call above 80 miles exceeds
rs cents, and only to provide the
actual cost of the service the mini
NUNS for this distance was increased
from % cents to 80 cents.
In commenting on the revision
public service officials stated that this
addition of cents was allowed
where the minimum heretofore has
been 25 cents for distances between
SO and SO miles. No change has
been made in rates existing during
the day time.
Following a revision of toll rates
by the commission in February,
where slight increases were approved,
the company has expended more than
100000 in making possible greater
dispatch in the handling of toll SER
vice. The Standardization service,
where a reduction has been had, is
the most profitable service the COM
pany has in its long distance business,
it is said Privilege is now granted
for reversing charges on station-to-
station calls, which is new service

CAN'T ENFORCE DRY law
WHEN PEOPLE DRINK

Atlanta. Ga.-The national prohl
bition law never will be absolutely
enforced, and only substantially SC
when the mass Of the people volun-
.arily become total abstainers,
United States District Judge Samuel
Il. Sibley declared in charge to the
Federal grand jury.
In fact" he added, mo law ever
mas or ever will be perfectly enforced
which denied the qualification of per-
sonal taste. 1t is foolish TO expect
perfect enforcement o. this law or
any olner which deals with gratitica-
ion Of personal desire which can
De satisfied in private.
Substantial enforcement Will
come only when and where the mass
of people decide they want it and get
Co the point where they will report
and testify as to violations. All the
forces Of men and money that the
United States might muster would be
nelpess TO do more than act as an
irritant in a community where the
sentiment was against prohibition.
moderation is the ideal that has
been reached for since the time OF
Adam, and still unattained. Volun-
tarv total abstinence is the only hope
for the enforcement of the prohibi-
ton law. There is no doubt but
what this is a long way off, possibly
a generation"
Judge Sibley declared Atlanta Of
fers the biggest problem in the en-
forcement of the dry law in the
northern district of Georgia" AS
serting that "people here, as in other
cities, want whisky and are willing
to pay for it." He suggested the
posting of patrols and inspectors on
all roads into the city to examine au-
tomobiles and personal effects of per-
sons entering as means of hating
liquor running.

FOUNDATION OFFERS
PRIZE TO BOOST SWINE
RAISING in SOUTHEAST

Foundation here will award hand

Judging in the Inter- Collegiate Swine
Judging Contest to be held at the
Southeastern Exposition here Octo-
Der to 8, it was announced today
by George c. Biggar, secretary of
the Foundation. Dr. Milton P. Jar
nagin, professor of Animal Husban-
dry at the Georgia State College is
superintendent of the contest. 1t is
expected that college judging teams
from the Carolinas, Tennessee, Geor-
eia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi
will compete for honors.
"Hog raising is becoming an i'm
portant industry in the southeast and
it is the aim of the Foundation" said
Secretary Biggar, "to give the farm
ers of this section constructive help
in more efficient management and
better feeding problems of profitable
HOG production. The soil and climate
of this territory are favorable to the
production of forage crops adapted
to economical pork production. I'm
like the corn belt, swine raising in
the southeast is year round busl-
ness, and two crops can be raised a
wear. In the north it is a fedlot
proposition. Here it is one of pas
turage. When the farmers of the
southeast started to raise hogs and
for a number of years thereafter
they depended upon peanuts for feed
but now they include soybeans and
other legumes which are being
grown on the farms here. The in
dustry is improving. More farmers
are going into the swine raising bust
ness and more packing plants have
been established in many sections
The possibilities for this branch OF
farming are most encouraging for the
farmers of this part of the country
DR.. Jarnagin states that there i:
perhaps more interest in swine judg
ing at the coming exposition than IL
any one livestock feature. This i
due, he says, to the growing interes
in the southeast in constructive sys
tenn of agriculture which provides
most important place for swine rails
ing.

GEORGEA'S 1926 COTTON
CROP ESTIMATED TO
YIELD 10000 BALES

Atlanta, Ga.-A cotton crop of
100000 bales isindicated for Geor-
gia in the official report released
through the Georgia Cooperative
Crop Reporting service. This report,
which relates to Sept. 16, places con-
dition of the crop at Sc per cent of
normal, indicating an average yield
per acre of about 142 pounds.
The average yield per acre in 1925
was 155 pounds and in 1924, 157
pounds, the report stated. The total
production in 1925 was 1,164,0O0
bales and in 1924, 100000 bales.
The acreage for this years harvest,
it was pointed out, is about 8 per
cent greater than the 1925 acreage,
and 20 per cent greater than in
1924.
Conditions during the period from
Sept. | to 16 were quite favorable
for development of the late crop, re-
sulting in further recovery from late
ness and hopper damage in the north
ern half of the state. The improve
ment in that section, with somewhat
better fields being realized in the
southern territory than were expect
ed two weeks ago resulted in about
3 per cent increase in the indicated
crop since Sept. l.
Offsetting to some extent the ia
vorable developments during the
period, was the presence of the leaf
worm in hte northern half of the
state. While on Sept. 18th the pest
was present in large percentage of
the fields, serious damage had oc-
Cured only in widely scattered To-
calities. At that time the extent OF
the probable loss from this source
was uncertain, being largely depend
ent upon the extent of poisoning ano
the degree of infestation after thai
date. Some growers were poisoning
with calcium arsenate and wher'
used, the treatment was usually prov
ing effective.
Picking and ginning are progress
sing rapidly in the southern half o
the state where most of the cotto
is open. Picking has just started i
the northern territory, the report ii

night was of such a nature as to make
San Antonio proud of them. The usual
squeaks and shrill notes Characteristic

sicians were entirely absent Tuesday
night, and the Happy Family were so
happy about it that they telephoned
votes for the school and applause for
the artists vociferously and enthusiast
ically.

orchestra, Luis G. Dorantcs, concert
pianist, gave an hours recital in
which he played many of his own COM
positions. as well as some of the IA
miliar songs Of Old Mexico.
