T. WATERS. J*. 1 CORDEUE. Ga., f‘*b. 21.—Farmers from the whole of Crisp county were waiting ‘ when the educational special rolled in pt J 4 o’clock Tuesday afternoon. The extra * stop inserted earlier In the day resulted , In a later-than-schedule arrival here. wherefore the farmers would have been excusable in leaving for their homes out in the country. Mayor W. H. Dorris, heading the reception delegation, dispens ed with all preliminaries of Introduction and welcome, and the lecturers through out the length of the train got down to business at once. With something like 3,000 people to reach, they had none too much time to spare. The whole width of Tenth ave nue, alongside the train, was filled with standing men, women and children for more than 100 yards, and the coaches were constantly full. WELCOMING DELEGATION. The welcoming delegation, besides May i or Dorris, consisted of O. T. Gower, rep resentative from Crisp; Judge U. V. Whipple, of the superior court: Judge E F. Stroxier, of the city court; J. E. Cot, chairman of tha county commis sion. and Aidermen D. L. Bulloch and W. P. Fleming, and. the entire membership of the Cordele Chamber of Commerce, consisting of some M monos commercial affair*. According to County School Commlf stoner Bivins, there were about 1.700 coun ty school pupils in the audience, from nearly all of the 24 white schools in the county. A holiday had been declared for all. Crisp county’s schools are run on a local tax amounting to about >i,ooo a year, assessed on the county unit system and further supplemented by about *IO.OOO from the state. The revenue In five years has grown to this figure from 16.000. MANY IMPROVEMENTS. Many improvements are being made and the consolidation of all the small schools Into a few big ones is regarded as an early result of the present policy. Ja son Scarborough, superinteadent of city schools, and Prof. C. D. Read, principal, had dismissed their 650 pupils befofe the train arrived, but most of them, with the 1* teachers, visited tha college on wheels. Men who are widely acquainted through out this section looked over the faces of the crowd here and pointed out some of the best farmers around here, among them being J. J. Wheeler. T. E. Gleaton, A. J, CUry. J- W. Bennett, I, G. Wil liams, J. D. Vt'elcher. John B. McDonald, T. E. Collier. J. I*. Felder, J. O. McKin ney. W. A. Tuck. W. J. Mu use 11 white, J. S. Pate. J. A. Adkins. A. Heibert.

Ga., Feb. 22.—A very creditable audience, indeed, met the trtdn here at 2 o’clock Tuesday afternoon at the central point In Wilcox county, cred itable, because it was interested and also becausA it was surprisingly numer ous in view of the fact that not until Monday morning did the local authorities have any information .that their j>etitions were successful to have the town Includ ed fit ’ the vey. the' representative from this ebufily. came down from his home at Pineview, 13 miles north. In his automobile, bringing Ids family with him. Another automobile from Pineview brought J- J- Dennard, former senator and former representative, and G. 'L. Mc- Leod, L. J. Morgan and J. A. Dennard. The train stopped here only an hour, but that was long enough for, it to es-' tablish very-cordial relations with the farmers of this section. Some of the lead ers who met it here were Dr. C. D. Mc- Rae. W. Z. Peeples, J. M King. H. O. Mashburn, W. G. Brown, C. W. Do e t er , C. Mcßae, 8. B. Reid, W. B. Owens, J. P. Doster, 8. R. Finn, 8. F. Laidler, Dr. J. F. Cooper, J. W. Perry, W. H.

This is one of the two stops that the train is making in Tattnall county, the other being at Collins, a few miles farth er on. : . . If, as is said to be the case, an equally large crowd is waiting at Collins. Tattnall county will have fur nished one of the most general receptions that any county has given. County School Commissioner I. 8. Smith says that about two-thirds of the 47 country schools are in the crowd here and that the rest will be at Collins. A general school holiday has been or dered throughout the county. H.

WELCOME GROWS AS TRAIN ROLLS WESTWARD BT W. T. WATERS, JB- VIDALIA, Ga.. Feb. 21.—Notwithstand ing darkness and a delayed arrival of the educational special, Vidalia sent some of her best citizens and some of the best farmers of this section of Toombs and neighboring Montgomery counties aboard the educational special last evening for a short course at the college on Wheels. The stop here was not on the original sched ule. / It was Inserted last Saturday, after Dr. Soule and the Seaboard railway authori ties had been besieged;by petitions from here. As much publicity as possible was given the train’s coming. Horace E. Dipkens. who succeeded his brother, E. C. J. Dickns, as editor of the Vidalia Ad vance. lent his best efforts to ‘ the dis/ semination of the news. The chamber of commerce members displayed It on cards in thefr store windows. And thten, on Monday's run out of Savannah, a stren uous attempt was made to gain time and get the special here by 4:30 o'clock. Mr. Dickens printed some circulars, Monday, •nd spread them everywhere hereabouts, Informin* all that the train would get here at 4:80. But in spite of all, the train was de layed. It arrived here at 5:30 o’clock, arid could not be placed in position be fore 6:30. By then not less than 500 farmers had gone home. There still re mained a substantial number, though, and at ‘ leas* half of the 1,500 people, young and old, who went through the ex hibit coaches under electric lights sup plied by the train s own dynamo, are farmers outright or are directly inter ested in farming. But the feature of the •train’s visit to Vidalia was the stereopticon lecture given by Director J. E. Hite, In the school auditorium, commencing at 8 o'clock, the college lanttrn being used. The cold 'weather had descended ufrfori this section during the afternoon, ar.d effectually pre vented any open air lecturing. The stere opticon, therefore, was the principal number on the program. The auditorium was very comfortably heated for the oc casion, and was crowded. Commissioner T. G. Hudson, State Entomologist E. Lee Worsham and Richard Crosby, of the United States department of agriculture, were scheduled for short talks, supple menting the already attractive program. S. B. Meadows, former representative merchant and farmer, pres ident of the Vidalia Chamber of Com merce. did much to make the rather im promptu and handicapped stay of the spe cial in Vidalia the success it was. Dr. W. F. Peacock, the representative-elect, himself directly Interested in farming, also helped appreciably, and Prof. W. D. Green, of the Vidalia public school system (enrollment 365), lent his valuable assist ance. School was dismissed at the regu lar hour, 3:20 o’clock. Monday afternoon, but nearly all of the students Inspected the exposition on the train, and many of them attended the lecture at the audi torium. E. C. J. Dickens, president of the First District Agricultural school at States boro. who was a member •of the train’s party Monday, left it here last night at the limit of his He will rejoin it one week from next Monday, when it re enters iiij district for a three days' run. Two more stops have been added to to day's run. making five altogether, as there were yesterday, and Insuring an other. day of strenuous work for the al ready overworked party on the special. Rochelle has been added, after Abbeville, and the train will reach there at 2 o'clock; and Leslie' has been added after •Cordele, the schedule being for the tram to arrive there at 6 o'clock. The train, spent last night here and wijl spend tonight in Americus. “All of Tattnall County” Goes to See Farm Train COLLINS, Ga., Feb. 21.-All of Tatt nall ebunty, from/the Ohoopee and the has seen the educational train. Such minor exceptions as might be made to this are inconsiderable. It is safe to say that not a district of the county failed to send one or more rep resentatives either to Claxton or this point both of which are in Tattnall.

They came behind wood burning loco motives, and behind the old Georgia hay burner of the long flapping ears, and in buggies and afoot. Here and at Claxton the lecturers talked face to face with more farmers at once than they could have found singly in months of travel through the county. I. 8. Smith, county school commissioner, and H. C. Smith, W. A. Brinson, 11. J. Banks and J. M. Roach, members of the county board of education, traveled from Claxton to here with the train, being joined here by their chairman, T. S. McCall. Commissioner Smith stated that thqse country schools which were not represented at Claxton, were present here. SCHOOLS ARE PRESENT. Tha Cobbtown school, 50 strong, headed by B. L. Jordan, principal, and three teachers, and accompanied by.the school band of 13 pieces and a delegation .of 150 citizens, caine down in. a body by train with a big banner tn their midst. Thomas E.

Three years ago the train stopped here and the whole crowd was accommodated in one of the passenger coaches. There were not more than 150 altogether. Today there \yere more than 2.000.

Farmers Leave Court To Hear Farm Adresses LYONS, Ga., Feb. 21.—1 t was court day here Monday and an unusually big on«, too, as might well be supposed when the attraction of a visit by the education al special is added to that of a court in session. Farmers were here from many miles around, representing all parts of Toombs county and a large portion of Montgomery, with representatives from other partj of the circuit. Court closed at. 1 o’clock, so that when the special arrived at 3:15 It had the field to Itself. According to County School Commis sioner Grover C. Brantley, several schools of Toombs coupty were represented, a holiday having been declared Prof. Monts and his assistants and the 260 pu pils of the Lyons school-were here. E. J. Giles, 1. Q.

Thirty-five Wagons Bring Schools to See Train BY W. T. WATERS, JR. ABBEVILLE, Ga., Feb. 22.—Arriving I here one hour ahead of time, at 11 (o’clock Tuesday morning, the educational special found few folks ready tdf it. Ar , rangementa had been made to receive it ‘ formally at 12 o’clock with a speech of , welcome by Col. E. H. Williams. The earlier arrival, necessitated by the two stops added to its run, caused the tem porary disarrangement of this and other ,! plans. Seven of the county schools came in here, using 35 wagons for their jour ney along the county roads, one of them Com’ng eight miles in this fashion. , They were the Cannonville school, in charge of Miss Daisy Cadwell; New Hope, in charge of Mias Myra March- I man; House Creek, Miss Nettie McCart | ney; Center. Miss Vina Lee Dalton; Browning, Miss 'Alta Smith; Forest Glen, Miss Sadie Roberts, and Kramer, in [ charge of E. A. Rinkston. Altogether, not less than 385 fresh creeked youngs ters from the country were contributed to the Abbeville session of the college on wheels by this migration. County School Commissioner E. S. Hamilton said that not Ifcss than six oth ers of the 34 white schools of the county ! were represented by their teachers and j some of the pupils. Twenty-nine of the ' county schools are operating under local tax by the district system, and the whole organization is advancing rapidly, J 3.000. having been spent on beautifying grounds and equipping schools during the pres ent term. BAND CONCERT GIVEN. The Abbeville Star band of 12 pieces rendered a concert at the depot, while the train stopped* here. All the Visitors were sent through the exhibit coaches and then addressed by the lecturers, re versing the usual program. Even with i this temporizing, the lecturers dealt with proposition, being continually In terrupted by • the intrusion of other : trains and engines. The first step toward putting a stop to tlw alleged misrepresentations which men who have heen following the special are reported to have made, was taken here, , when Director Hite conferred with :the cnief of poHce and secured the sup presMort ’ W ifwo inen who hkvd been so- LLS WESTWARD liciting subscriptions to an agricultural publication by offering spectacles as premiums. It has been reported that these men and their associates, who have •tworked” every town the special has visited for more than a week past, were representing themselves as members of the party and reaping a golden harvest from supscrlptlons and the circulation of hand-me-down spectacles. BIG PRIZE WINNER. Cliff Russell, a 16-year-old y lad, was Introduced to Professor Campbell, of the Corn club work here, by County School Corhmlssioner Hamilton, who vouched for the accepted fact that Cliff Russell grew 135 bushels of corn on an acre of Wilcox county land last year. That yield would have won the staite prize had Cliff been entered in the state contest. Unfortu . nately he was not. but this year he and about 100 other Wilcox county boys are in line for the big prizes. A big club was organized here today. The whole Abbeville school, 180 strong, was march ed to th* train here, under Principal H. J. Hayes, and the following teachers, C. D. Harris. Miss Lily Shrewsbury, M. H. Purcell and Misses Louise Thomason and Effie Weaver. D. J.

McDaniel, secretsry-treasurer of the state Farmers’ union, who has been fighting back an indisposition for several days past, gave up this morning at Vidalia and went home for a few , days’ rest.

Ga., Feb. 22.— Declaring that Sanfuel Retnez. a New Yorket. had an noyed him and , threatened his wife, Max iPin-tschuck, a prominent Jewish mer chant last night approached Remez on Broad street, and threatened to shoot him down at sight unless he left town within 24 hours. Remez retaliated with a peace warrant, placing Pintschuck un der a bond of *SOO to keep the peace. The trouble started over a ball trover suing, in which Remez obtained a ver dict for diamonds valued at SSOO and rent of $5 per month for three years for the jewels, which are in of Mrs. Jeanette Pintschuck, who was for merly Mrs. Remez. Since then a suit for slander against Remez was filed by Pintschuck and a warrant for bigamy against Mrs. Pintschuck was sworn out by Remez, charging that she had never ; been legally divorced from him. Both 1 these suits were withdrawn, but trouble I broke out afresh last night when Roman ■ warned the New Yorker to leave or die. : FARMERS ARE WORRIED OVER SLIGHT RAINFALL MARSHALLVILLE. Ga„ Feb. 22.—Some ’ farmere in this section are disturbed about the slight rainfall during the winter, resnlt i ing in such a dry condition of the ground that the plows turn up the dry d rt, at the 1 depth of several inci,e«. 1 i This seems to be getfrral throughout thia sec | Hon and will prove unfavorable to good crops unless the spring rains make up for the . i present lack of moisture in the ground. I The rainfall has not been so little in many years. Wells in town and country failed month* ago and wagons are kept busy hanllng | water from near-by springs and creeks for i Imusehdld use and to water stock."

Y„ Feb. 22.-That the United States within the next; two year will uave legislation Insuring a new and far reaching scientific banking sys tem. designed to last a century, is the prediction of Congressman Edward B. Vreeland, chairman of the banking and currency committee of the house of rep resentatives and vice chairman of the New York monetary commission. Con gressman Vreeland makes this prediction in a statement to the State Bankers’ as sociations here, adding: “There is not a single doubt that we are going to have radical reform in our banking and currency system. dan ger of panic must be done away with. The people will never again submit to the suspension of payment by banks, and all the suffering that such a thing entails. Our periodical panics have been more expensive in losses of money and hardships than all the wars the country has ever known.’’ Postmaster Nominated WASHINGTON, Feb. 22,-President Taft sent to the senate the nomination of Henry O. Wilson as postmaster at Marshall, Tex. / . ’ OUTWIT BOLL WEEVIL The farmers of at least two counties In Mississippi have beat the boll weevil to a frazzle. They are the farmers of Attala and La mar counties. In the former coun ty the weevil ha® been doing his worst for three years, but this year, despite the fact that the weevil was there in large num bers, the planters of Attala raised more cotton than any year In their history, according to a re port coming from Jackson, Miss. In Lamar the weevil only in vaded that county last year, but was there In large numbers this year, yet the farmers produced more cotton to the acre, and a larger crop, than in any previous year. These are facta corroborated by the figures, according to well known gentlemen from each I of these counties, and shows that the farmers of these counties have followed closely the instructions of the agents of the department of agriculture, or else have hit upon a plan of their own to out wit the weevil. A BIG COWTEBT FOB BOTS The boys of 1 the Covington county (Miss.) Corn club are not satisfied with their success as corn raisers, so a meeting ha? been called for the purpose -of arranging for a pig contest for 1911, according to the Meridian Star. One good thing calls for another, and the Covington county boys see added money ahead of them in th® raising of pigs on their prize corn, for home and market purposes. It is safe to say that where some of the boys who fall in getting corn clun prizes will be In at the prize-win ning at the “pig show.” Com bining their pigs with their prize corn, these boys will be in a po sition to enter &« meat market for the money that is in the much-mooted system of “living at home,’’ and at the same time will have money in their pockets with which to Increase their in dustrial endeavor. The next thing anybody knows, these Cov ington county boys will be land owners ana paying taxes just like ’’grown-up’’ citizens, and reacn* ing out for other markets to con quer. SEBXOU3 TOXATO DISEASES There are two distinct diseases which attack tomato fields m man j’ sections and make the growing of this crop very uncer tain. The most common one is the tomato leaf spot which first at tacks the lower leaves, but gradu ally spreads over the vine and kills the leaves before the fruit ripens. . Wnere this disease appears all diseased ‘ vines should be gathered In the fall and burned. Spray the plants early in the growing season with bordeaux mixture and repeat two or three times. The second disease is the to mato wilt. which fortunately is not so widespread as the leaf spot. The lower leaves show the disease first and the disease gradually spreads upward. The wilt, how ever. can be distinguished from the leaf spot by the absence of the well-defined circular areas on the diseased leaves. The entire leaf wilts and turns brown. ' This disease gets into the plant through the roots and spraying is of no use. The only remedy is to rotate the crop, planting to matoes on a new piece ?ach year. HOMEMADE LAND BOLDER A successful farmer writes me that he has-just learned how to make a land roller, although he has been farming 40 years. He secured a round section of gal vanized iron culvert material. 2 feet in diameter and corrugated. You can make it any length, but his was 8 feet long. He set it on end and fastened it securely in a perpendicular position. An iron rod for an axle was placed In the exact center, and the form was then filled with concrete mortar. It was allowed to cure for two weeks, when it was laid on the ground, and the form fas belted to the axle, when it was ready for use. He says that this roller cost him *5 besides his time, and it was worth more than this for rolling his whea<. SEED POTATOES Everything considered, for the extremely early crop in regions where Irrigation is not depended upon and where conditions are se vere, It is undoubtedly best to plant whole potatoes, a single po tato of moderate size in each place. It is believed that uncut tubers can withstand the vicissi tudes of excessive moistufe qr ex-, veseive drouth better than * cut tubers. This practice requires more seed than when the tubers are cut and does not increase tbe yield sufficiently to justify the use of the whole potato when the cli mate is not subject to extremes of drouth and excessive rainfall.— Farmers’ Bulletin 4OT. The self-boiled brand of lime- I sulphur was used successfully in a I number of places last summer to 1 prevent the ripe rot of the cherry. The formula used Is 18 pounds of quicklime. 8 pounds of sulphur flaked with 4 or 5 gallons of hot water. This is diluted to 56 gal lons before application is made. ■'i L ? - ■ s " i ? S 4k.
