ROGERS PUTS $40,000,000 INTO A VIRGINIA ROAD New York. Sepf. 20.—The Evening Post prints details of the story that Henry H. Roger*, the Standard Oil magnate, has loat about $40,000,000 by Investments In the Tidewater railway project In Virginia. It Is stated, how ever, that Rogers may win out In time, as the road I* nearing comple tion and may prove a money-maker. The paper says: ... “According to the stories previously circulated, upward of 40 per cent of Mr. Rogers’ fortuno has been Involved In the Tidewater Investment. It was reported today that the personal ob- ligations Incurred amounted to $40,- wio.000. It van bo stated positively that the aum Is much larger than the i,mount named: also that the situation has been entirely cleared up. “In order to meet the demands made upon him In connection with the con struction of the railroad. Mr. Rogers was forced to dispose of a large amount of Investment stocks at a sacrifice. All during the recent decline In prices the vice president of the Standard Oil Company sold gilt-edged stocks, such as Standard Qll, Consol idated Qas, Union Paclflc and St. Paul. “Some five or six years ago,'against the advice of his friends, .Mr. Rogers started to build In West Virginia a low-grade road which would parallel the Norfolk and Western. Hla object was to carry coal and lumber to tide-' water. The line was to be 444 miles long. Only 125 miles have been com pleted. “Only a few months ago. In order to raise $10,000,000 for the Tidewater road. H. H. Rogers Issued his personal note, secured by $20,000,000 mortgage bonds, $10,000,000 stock and $10,000,000 divi dends or Interest paying collateral. These 6 per cent notes were Indorsed by H. H. Rogers personally.” FIRST HOUR MARRIED LIFE STRENUOUS FOR THIS COUPLE Spet-tal to The Georgian.

Over a ton of Arbuckles’ Ariosa Coffee is roasted at a time, in a large revolving cylinder, which drops the coffee through heat again and again until each bean is uniformly roasted. No other coffee is in suffi cient demand to afford such scientific and perfect prepara tion. The sales of Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee exceed the sales of all other packaged coffees combined, and this scientific roasting, which no other coffee can afford, by its very magni tude, reduces our cost to a minimum, and enables us, with our other advant ages, to give better value in Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee than is possible for any one else, Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee is the cheapest good coffee in the world, and the best of all for you. ARBUCKLE BROS., New York City. DENY ESTIMATES Three County Organiza tions Take Action on Cotton Forecasts. The following resolutions have been ndopted by the local Farmers' Union of Butts, Spalding and Monroe coun ties: Wo, your committee, wish to make the following report. The Farmers’ Union of Butts county. Georgia, denounces tho uctlon of cer tain reporters ryho reported the oct- ten crop of the state of Georgia at 2,000,000 bnles for the yenr 1907, while 1.300.000 would be a very liberal esti mate for the present crop. We regret that certain influential newspapers had published this report without comment, which has been very detrimental to the fanners of Georgia anti the whole South. W, J. OARR, J. J. MAPP, S. H.

Peel and other prominent cltlxens of Georgia, In a recent Inter view given to Tho Atlanta Journal, places the cotton crop of the state of Georgia at 2,000,000 bales for the year 1907, and. Whereas, recognltlne that estimate Is wholly untrue from the present out look, and what we can learn from all sources, we, the Farmers’ Union of Spalding county. In a called meeting assembled, do hereby Resolve, That we strongly condemn the methods used by these prominent rlllxens to lower the prices of cotton bv making It appear that the state will yield fully 500,000 more bales than It Is possible for her to yield thlB year, and words of censure are not too strong toward these men for such unfair methods against the farmers of tho state. We further Resolve, That It Is the sentiment of all present that we embody In theao r« solutions the request that all persons in the state making reports to the gov. etnment be exceedingly careful not to over-estimate the crop conditions at ei.ch report, thus protecting the farmer rgalnst the speculator.
