STATE LABORATORY
OF MODERN STYLE
Georgia Prepared For Ex
hausted Tests of
Foodstuffs.
Georgia now has unquestionably the
finest chemical laboratories In the
Jtouth, and when all of the apparatus Is
placed It Is doubtful If any state In the
Union Win have a better equipped or
ftiore complete one.
With the passage of the state pure
food law and Its going Into effect, the
necessity for enlarging the whole scope
of the chemical department of the state
became apparent. Agricultural Com
missioner Hudson. Assistant Commie--
sloner Wlrght and Stale Chemist John
M. McCandless began at once planning
toward this end.
The laboratory on the first floor or
the building, where analyses of fer
tilizers, minerals and other things tne
department was called on to handle
were made, was found loo cramped
accommodate the Increased work u
der the pure food law.
So workmen were engaged to put the
southeastern comer of the basement,
directly under the old chemical labora
tories, In shape. They have wrought a
marvelous change In fitting out the new
rooms. Here will be a large testing
room, a small one. a store room and
the engine room. Everything le ar
ranged with a view to light, air and
cleanllntM.
Modern Testing Apparatus.
In these rooms have been placed the
finest and most modern apparatus for
analysing fertilisers and tbs stock
feeds. For Instance, the apparatus for
separating the fats from IU retaining
bodies is th« latest and best that can

which the bottles containing mine test.

Many other Inventions will facilitate
the work of the department. Much of

HOW TO OPERATE

bile, Then Take Lessons
in Atlanta.
Atlanta has had schools where car
penters have been taught to carp, and
mechanics to mlck, and now Atlanta Is
going to have a school where chauf
feurs will be taught to ahofe.
So the day of oolllstoni In Atlanta
caused by Inexperienced chauffeurs
fast nearing an end.
This now school, where the art of
running and caring for an automobile
will be taught. Is the Columbia School
of Automoblto Engineering at the cor
ner of Ivy and Ollmer streets, and al
though It Is a new feature In this part
of the country, already It has promised
to become popular and many students
are enrolled.
Two mechanical engineering experts
with sxperlence In Intornal 'cmnbus
tlon engines and automobiles of every
make in cities all over the country art
back of this Institution and In connec
tion with the school they have opened
a garage and repair establishment.

Professor Stallings will prove s wor

He hns dons specie! work for the gov

study ami work have been especially
along the line nf pure foods. A modest,
retiring gentleman, It was difficult to
dmtv him out until he was asked to
tell something of the Importance of
food Inspection. Then he said:
"I believe the national pure food law
has and Is working wonders In un
earthing and stepping frauds In foods.
The co-operation of the states wilt
Strengthen the general effectiveness
end enforcement of the lew.
"I do not subscribe to the Idea many
have that the enforcement of the pure
.food laws will raise tbs prices or In
crease the cost s bit For Instance, If
you buy for 10 ernts pepper that con
tains half pepper anti half something
else: If you then pay IS cent* and gel
pure pepper, I can not eee whore the
price Is Increased If you are getting the

sultant of adulterants, end not the le
gitimate expression nf food values.
"We shall pay particular attention to
the question of milk over the stats,|
and are now gathering san^M
many other cities. Nothing ■

It Is expected that the work of the
chemical department wilt constantly
Increase, and that within a few years
no department of the stats will b* mors

Chicago, Nov. II.—Firs destroyed the

TEDDY BEARMAKERS
ASK CLOSED SHOP
New York, Nov. 10.—'The Teddy
Bear Makers' Union, the latest on the
list of labor organisations, has decided
to make a demand for the closed shop
In th* Teddy bear trade, now that
Christmas Is coming on.
According to the union. It requires
workmen of on artistic temperament to

down the other. For by teaching au
tomobile owners and chauffeurs how to
avoid large repair bills, they loss this
class of business, which comes tnr jugh
Inexperience and Ignorance.
Classes for Drivers.
These two mechanics are T, E. Fink
nnd II. F. Holmberg, and besides run
ning an up-to-date garage for the caro
nnd repair of uutos, they will have
classes In the morning, afternoon and
evening nnd will lecture and demon
strate to their pupils. They will have
classes far owners who will learn how
tc avoid large repair blits, and incom
petent chauffeurs. Many automobile
owners have become disgusted with
motoring because their cars were con
stantly In the repair shop.
Mr. Fink says that u considerable
part of this Is due to Ignorance on the
part of the owner or chauffeur and
could be avoided.
Many times, he says, an auto goes
to the repair shop for an overhauling
and consequent large bill bccuuse either
the owner or Inexperienced chauffeur
has found something wrong, didn't
know whet It was end after experi
menting with everything on the car,
left It In worsa shape than In the be
ginning.
"The original trouble," said Mr. Fink,
may have been something so simple
that two minutes' work would have
remedied It."
Besides teaching owners a few things
they shold know, chauffeurs will be
tnught how to core for a car and make
repairs on the road. They will be In
structed In the operation of the en
gines, spark colls, carburettors and In
he why. and wherefores of these
parts. If a men knows why s thing Is
made In n certain way and Its pecu
liar functions, he Is In a better posi
tion to know how to remedy any diffi
culty, Mr. Fink argues.
A feature of the school will be the
teaching of people to operate an au
tomobile. The garage secured by
Messrs. Fink and Holmberg Is a large
one and persons will be Instructed how
tc drive autos. I-sdles who have no
means of learning now will be shown
the tricks of dodging trolleys and oth
er autos. After being able to run a car
moderately, the learner will be made tu
dodge posts In the gsrsge and other
autos, turn sharp corners and avoid
obstacles.
Women Good Drivers.
"Women make goed drivers," said
Mr. Fink, "If they are properly In
structed and coached. The trouble
with many Is that they lose their nervo
at the first sign of danger. That Is be
cause they have never encountered
such s proposition bsfore. By learn
ing In a school they will have occasion
to face Just such things, but an ex
pert will be with them. They will be
given chances to dodge machines
placed In their way or other obstacles,
and although they might scream a few
times nnd drop the wheel and turn the
machine over to the expert, they be
come accustomed to danger and make
excellent drivers."
In eonectlon with the school, a cor
respondence school Is operated with
headquarters In Atlanta nnd Instruc
tions given In six languages.
