The problem of financing the move ment was canvassed at the meetings, and it was decided that he active trades bodies and other interests of the state could not be properly called upon to finance unaided a project of such state-wide interest. The associa tion thereupon decided to give oppor tunity of every community in the state to contribut, either through its cham ber of commerce, board of trade, or by individual contribution, on the follow ing basis of subscription: From cities of 71,000 or more. 3400.00 Over 60,000 and under 75,000.. 350.00 Over 25,000 and under 50,000.. 800.00 Over 10,000 and under 25,000.. 250.00 Over 6,000 and under 10,0000... 200.00 Over 3.000 and under 6,000... 150.00 Over 1,600 and under 3,000.... 100.00 Os approximately The press of the entire state will be asked to aid the movement by keeping it before the public, and by reporting subscriptions, and also by receiving them wherever necessary. It is felt that Georgia must be rep resented this year, as the other lead ing southern states will be more large ly represented at his exposition than they ever have been In the past at any other similar exhibit tn America.

FITZGERALD, Ga., July B.—Breeders of White Plymouth Rock chickens are forced to look to their laurels, when they learn that birds from the Patterson farm, near this city, are entered in any show where they are competing. Al though J. .. Patterson, the owner, has been showing his birds only a few years, he already has a gtring of rib bons which would do credit to a life long breeder. For the past seven years Mr. Patterson has been interested in poultry, but he started off with several varieties, and It was only four years ago that he dis posed of his other stock and commenced with White Plymouth Rocks exclusively. The following year he commenced show ing his birds, and from the start they were remarkably successful, winning some prises in every show entered. While Mr. Patterson credits many good features to other varieties, he is a strong believer in the White Plymouth Rock as the best all-around chicken obtain able.

The cotton products exhibit will in clude every variety of cloth manufac tured in Georgia. Tobacco and wool will be included. A novelty exhibit is contemplated in the shape of a miniature diamond-back terrapin crawl or a beaver dam. Also, a handsome collection of framed photographs will be included, showing the beauty and the resources of the state. TO ADVERTISE GEORGIA. It is intended that the exhibit shall go well equipped with advertising mat ter, to include a 48-page illustrated book let for distribution, dealing with the state in general; and a miniature Geor gia flag produced on celluloid to be dis tributed as souvenirs. , The association may also borrow 260 photographs dealing with and illustrat ing every agricultural proposition, gen eral farming, mining, lumbering and water powers ahd their development in every section of Georgia. These will be turned into colored slides and used to illustrate the lectures on the state which will be given in specially prepared lecture rooms at intervals every day. It is also contemplated that a register will be kept in the exhibit in which every visitor will be requested to reg ister both name and permanent ad dress. Each day the list will be tabu lated and copied and a copy forwarded to every community in the state which subscribes to the fund 810,000 NEEDED.

At the present time there are about 1,000 White Rocks on Mr. Patterson’s modernly equipped farm, which is only a few miles from the center of Fitzger ald. Os this number about half are young birds and are being rapidly sold, and culled down, as he usually carries only about 500 birds through the win ter. The brooders, breeding houses, runs, incubators, etc., upon the farm are mod ern. up-to-date and of approved pattern, and the Patterson farm differs from the ordinary well-regulated farm, only in one way. No especially prepared foods are fed the chickens, not even the little ones ju»t out of the brooders being excepted. While the majority of breeders are ex tremely careful about the quantity, quality and class of food given their birds, declaring that ft is all-important not only for egg production, but for the general health of the fowls as well, Mr. Patterson doesn't agree with them. He simply feeds his chickens on any thing which comes, handy—scraps from material and In every possible manner for the success of the association. SUBSCRIPTIONS ASKED.

WEATHER REPORTS WILL BE GIVEN FARMERS GREENSBORO, Ga., July 7.—Through an arrangement perfected between the weather bureau and the Southern Beil Telephone company, farmers who are patrons of the lines in Greensboro and through the county will receive weather reports by telephone beginning in a few days. The daily weather reports will be fur nished the telephone company by the weather bureau, and the report will be read to the farmers by the telephone operators. At a given hour each day a general alarm will be sounded, call ing every farmer to the telephone When they are assembled the re”x>rt will be read. Any farmer who is not able to answer the signal and hear the report has the privilege of calling the operator and securing the information. This is the first comprehensive and systematic effort to furnish this informa tion without cost to the farmer. revenuFagents make GOOD HAUL IN JUNE Breaking the record since the office was established, there were 138 illicit distilleries raided in Georgia and Ala bama during June by Revenue Agent James H. Surber and his deputies. Practically all the arrests were white men, as it is very rare that a negro is caught making wild cgt whisky. Thousands of gallons of wnisky were seized, and 88,000 worth of apparatus destroyed. There was 75 arrests made. the table, corn, wheat, bran or anything else. During the spring and summer months they get what little green stuff that can be found in their spacious runs, but in the winter no oat sprouts or similar foods are prepared. The suc cess which he has met with In raising prise show birds has more fully con vinced Mr. Patterson that whlld proba bly good. especially prepared chicken foods are not essential to success,. The first year that he placed his' birds on exhibition at the Augusta poultry show, Mr. Patterson won a so— silver loving cup. At the 1910 show in Augusta he won three out of a total of five firsts, two seconds and a third prize. One year in Atlanta he won everything ex cept one pen, while on another occasion he won a first. At the 1811 show his birds took two seconds, a third, a fourth and two fifths. At the recent show at the Appalachian exposition at Knoxville, Tenn., he enter ed only two pens of White Rocks, but they took second and third prizes. Mr. Patterson is constantly increasing the size of his farm and impoving his breeds, and expects to compete in many coming shows. Thomasson, chairman, H. P. Kelly; Co lumbus, C. I.

WASHINGTON,*JuIy 7.—A continuance of the debate on the Canadian reciprocity bill and a speech by Senator Swanson, of Virginia, on his bill to appropriate 830,- 000,000 annually for five years to put the roads of the country into standard condi tion, constituted today's program of the senate. Senator Thornton, of Louisiana, Democrat, arranged to deliver his speech today in support of the reciprocity bill, and Senator Gronna, of North Dakota, will continue his attack on the measure. The house was not in session and the major investigations, that of the senate committee on the Lorimer election and those of the house special committees on the sugar and steel so-called trusts will not be resumed until next week. SENATOR THORNTON TALKS. "The only plausibly meretorious claim for the passage of the Canadian recip rocity bill was withdrawn by President Taft in his recent address at Indianap olis when he said that the bill would not diminish the cost of living,*' de clared Senator Thornton, of Louisiana, Democrat, today in addressing the sen ate. Senator Thornton said the farmers of the country should not be “buneqed*' by enactment of the bill; that the bill was not a Democratic measure and there fore he felt free to carry out his pledges to the people of Louisiana in voitng against it, even if he did not follow his party in the senate in so doing. "It could never have been framed by any Democratic committee," declared Mr? Thornton, "for no bill that combines free trade for agriculturists with pro tection for manufacturers could possib ly be Democratic." He contended that the bill violated the great Democratic principle of equal ity, but admitted that it would be enact ed into law. "The stalwart Republicans will vote for it,’’ he explained, "because of their reluctance to oppose this Republican ad ministration measure, for that is what it is ,and nothing more. The Democrats will vote for it, for what I do not know." Senator Thornton said he would like to see the duty on hides restored, "so that the farmers could again receive the prof its and the governments the revenue, and the public saved from monopoly by reducing the duty on shoes.” He added that he feared the passage of a free wool bill would be as disas trous as the passage of the free hides bill, "the farmer losing the profi.t the government the revenue and the public paying as much as ever for woolen goods.w Senator Thornton advocated the reduc tion of duties on shoes and woolen fabrics. MONROE WILL ASK FOR FARMERS’ RALLY FORSYTH, Ga-, July B.—Highly endorsing the holding of the educa tional rallies that will be held by the officials of the Georgia Farmers’ union to uplift the agricultural Interests of the state and to bring the farmers and business men and bankers to a closer understanding of each other, citizens and farmers of Monroe county, who are interested in agricultural develop ment, will make an effort to have these officials hold an educational rally in Monroe county. The people of this county are more deeply interested in scientific and ad vanced methods of farming than ever before in the history of the county, and sqch a rally, it held, would at tract hundreds of farmers and citizens from all walks of life from all sec tions of Monroe and* adjoining counties. If the rally was held here, all busi ness would be suspended in the city while it was in progress. A committee of several representa tive citizens and farmers of this county has been appointed to write to the officers of the Georgia Farmers’ union urging that they hold an edu cational rally in this county, and it is believed that the rally will be held.
