COTTON’S VALUE LIESJNJHE SEED State Bulletin Explains Cattle Feeding to “Geor gia Fanner.” ‘Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson and State Chemist John M. McCandless have Just Issued from the press "fertiliser bulletin No. 44," which Is declared by the officials at the state capitol, w£o have seen It, to be the most complete yet sent out by that de partment. There are 25,000 on hand, and they will be mailed to any one upon application. The distinctive feature of this bulle tin Is the series of tetters written by Mr. McCandless to "Georgia Farmer." They are live m number and are sup posedly In reply«to a letter from that person, stating that he Is "tired of raising cotton and wishes to raise stock and writes to ask If chemistry can throw any light on the subject." In these five letters Dr. McCandless gives the complete chemical changes which take place upon the proper feed ing of cattle. The language Js simple and places a science upon the most practical basis. In his third letter on the "Science of Feeding," he uses as his topic "Importance of Cotton Seed —How the Progressive Farmer May Calculate the Best , Rations for His Stock/’ He writes: ‘As I said, we have been raising cotton seed for the sake of Its fiber to be spun Ipto cloth when we should have been raising It chiefly for the sake of the protein and carbohydrates of Its seeds to be transmuted by wonder ful alchemy of the brute creation Into beef, milk, mutton and pork, with the lint simply thrown In ns a by-product. When we consider the wonderful nu tritive value of cotton seed meal and hulls, after the oil. another by-product, has been extracted from them, nnd the further fact that this rich, nutritious food may be passed through tho domes tic animals, giving them life, growth and development, and yet In that pro cess lose only about 10 per cent of the rich fertilizing constituents found In the original food and yielding a ma nure of the very best quality. It does seein as though nature had been too lavish and generous In her gifts to us of the South." In addition the bulletin gives the complete pure food law and the stand ard of pure food values as allowed under the law In Georgia, and how registration shall be accomplished for the sale of these articles, so as to com ply with the state regulations. ROW OVER HIGH SOCIETY, BARR QUITS EXPOSITION Norfolk. Va., Sept. • 18.—James M. Barr has asked the directors of the Jamestown Exposition to relieve him of his duties because of differences with President Tucker over the social fea tures of the big show. He says he can not keep his present position and his self-respect. The committee from the directors had Just smoothed matters between the director general and the president, nnd the resignation came us a bomb shell. Mr. Barr was not satisfied with the adjustment of differences. In speaking of the conditions upon which he consented to serve the expo- bUlon company, Mr. Barr said: "The president of the company has recently set up the claim. In conflict with the by-laws, that he Is the so cial head of the exposition and denies my right to direct the manner of en tertaining distinguished visitor* to the exposition, nnd in so doing has failed to comply with your decision In this connection, made August 30 last, and has refused to transfer, upon tny re quest. certain persons now employed In his office to assist Colonel Burton H. Grundy, appointed by me to represent me In this work. In pursuance of the understanding then reached with you. "As the failure to treat distinguished visitors to tho exposition on the day of opening and since with the courtesy Uue them has brought discredit and great loss thereto, ns Is commonly known. It Is clear their treatment Is a matter of business Interest to the ex* position and vital to Its success." COL.

Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 18.—-The ac tion of the Louisville and Nashville railroad In beginning the sale of tickets with rebate coupons attnchx'd amounts to nothing, according to Governor B. B. Comer. When his attention was called to the latest step takei#by the L. & X. to Indirectly put the 2 1-2-cent passen ger rate Into effect In Alabama, he de clared that If the case Js decided against the railroad, as he expects It will be, the road would have to make rebates anyway. "What It Is doing now," declared Governor Comer, "Is merely nn attempt to appease the public and fool the peo ple Into believing that It Is complying with the law. It Is doing nothing of the kind. Incidentally, I would like to say the bond the Louisville and Nash ville railroad has mode In these suits against the Alabama railroad commis sion Is not worth the paper it Is written upon. The latest move of this railroad will have no effect wnatever upon the administration program." This assertion Is understood to mean thpt an extra session of the legislature will be called to force the Louisville and Nashville to put Into effect the 2 l-2-.cent passenger rate. COLD IN HIS ARM MAKES HIM LIE Anston W. Tolan, a nilddle-ngc.1 tramp. Is either the craziest man out side an asylum or the cleverest crimi nal who does not wear stripes. Judge Calhoun, before whom he appeared Tuesday, thought him insane and dis missed tho vagrancy case when he promised to travel to hfs home In Dan. vllle, Va., as fast ns his legs will carry him. He Intends to-walk all the way. With a bag over his shoulder and his face turned northward, Tolan, who |j about 40 years old, was footing It down the trucks at Inman Park yards Sunday when arrested by Special Of ficers Buntyn and Savage of the South ern railway. They made nn examina tion of his bug nnd found one tin can, one fine-tooth comb, one cake of goap. one hair brush, two old hats, one can of concentrated lye nnd some old news papers. • When asked to give ah account of himself, Tolan said: "I can't tell the truth. I caught cold In my arm and It keeps me from telling anything but lies." "Where have you been?" "I walked down to Live Oak, Fla.," he said, with a vacant stare, "and I’m going buck to Virginia. It’s harder going up than It was coming down." Examination developed shnckle marks on his legs. He said that he wore a pair of striped trousers once, but hml never been locked up. He could give but a poor account of his Journeys and had every appearance of a crazy man. "If he was faking he ought to go on the stage ” said Officer Buntyn, after Tolan had been set free. "Tha Twelve” worked a surprise nn Colonel Walter Andrews Tuesday night and made him play host when he didn’t expect It. And they had the time of their lives. "The Twelve” I* a little club of Knights Templars, and the member* are: Forrest Adair, John Temple Graves, Mayor W. R. Joyner, J. Lee Barnes, John J. Woodalde. Charles Roberts. W. B. Roberts. Jack M. Wil son, Ed McCandless, Ed C. Brown. Ed Clapp and Colonel Andrews. They called a meeting ut the Aragon late Tuesday afternoon. When they emerged Colonel Andrews remarked: "I want you boyc t«^come out to my new house In Brookwood some time and we’ll have a Dutch supper." "What’s the matter with tonight?" asked Forrest Adair, nnd ho promptly climbed Into Colonel Andrews’ motor SIR CONAN DOYLE WEDS MISS-LECKIE car. Others followed, aigl half the par ty filled Mr. Woodslde’s car, which was nlso waiting In front of the Aragon. Colonel Andrews protested, but "The Twelve" overpowered him and made him steer for Brookwood. He insisted that there wouldn’t be anything tg eat In the pantry, but the party Insisted on going anyway. When they arrlvf.I at Colonel An drews’ new home he avoided the house nnd went down to tho pavilion by the spring. And here he discovered that Mrs. Andrews was "In on the Joke." She had prepared a big round table with seats for twelve, and eatables— and other things—for twice that num ber. There was. nothing left when the motor cars started back to town, sev eral hours later. "Walter Andrews has been promis ing us that Dutch supper long enough,", remarked one of tjl guests. "It was tip to us to go out and collect.** I Ml Vy . v% * .4*-iff IN CAROLINA CASE State Contended That Its Courts Have Jurisdiction in Matter. Raleigh, N.
