THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. rirrnsDAT. November a. 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 There Is also the Babcock separator for milk teats, It Is a small round affair. Which contains receptacles in which the bottles containing mine test. Bv nil electric current this revolves very rapidly and the fat Is thrown Into the narrow neck nf the bottle. A gauge will Instantly tell the amount of fat. Many other Inventions will facilitate the work of the department. Much of the new apparatus Is not yet In place, blit Is being arranged as rapidly as poe. slide. In the laboratory upstairs the analyse* -of food* And th® finer tests will be made. Necessarily thle enlarged work re quire* more chemists than have been a i , Professor John S. McCandless has been the very eltl- employed heretofore. dent state chemist for many years, but he will retire from the department on the first of the year. Professor Stallings New Chemist At that time he will probably be sue reeded by -Professor R. E.

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. And strange to say, one part of tholr rl- For the present four assistants iploycd. They are II. C. Hnlts- .flll be em r -_, claw anil S. ll. Wilson, Tech men: W. A. Dozier, of Emory, and L. M.

Professor Stallings will prove s wor thy successor to Professor McCandless. He hns dons specie! work for the gov ernment In the Philippines, end his 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 pure article. Cheapness was the re 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 ■ port ant In the health of the public as pure, uncontaminated milk.” 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 Important. $50,000 FREIGHT INCHICAGO BURNS Chicago, Nov. II.—Firs destroyed the Baltimore and Ohio freight sheds at 11:30 o'clock this morning. Eight freight ears, loaded with merchandise, were burned and the total loss was 130,000.

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.

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. FOUR LiVES LOST • BY EXPLOSION Norfolk. Vo.. Nov.
