STEPS TAKEN TO BLOCK WHEAT COBNER
KANBAB CITY. Aug. 29.—A majority of tbs
members of the Kansas City board of trade
believe they have blocked the alleged pirt*
of the Armouh Grain company, of Chicago, to
corner tbe wheat market here, although wheth
er or w»t they have succeeded remains to be
I seen. Tbe first step to block the Armour
I rqueeses was taken Saturday, when the board
I »f trade, by a vote of 125 to 28. adopted an
I amendment to tbe constitution of the exchange
I empowering tbe directors to declare an emer
gency and permit the delivery of grain on
track on future contracts. Members of tbe
. Kansas City board of trade In Chicago, Bt.
• Louis, Minneapolis and Omaha came to Kanwaa
r City to cast their votes on the amendment.
• Tbe overwhelming majority ia favor of it
• waa a surprise.
I Monday members of the board of trade voted
’on a preposition to permit tbe delivery of
wheat from private elevators on future con
tracts under requirements similar to those ap
plied to regular warehouses.
The Armour Grain company is believed to
I W long between 4.taK>.ooil and 5,000.000 bush
L els of Sej-teber wheat here, and baa declared
I that it will demand delivery. The public
I or regular capacity of the Kansas City mar
ket Is only about 3,000,000 bushel*. As it
is believed Armour owns much of the wheat
now In these elevators It would be practically
impossible for shorts to make deliveries,
•ven If they could get the wheat hero, with
out the adoption of extraordinary measures.
Tbe directors are expected to declare an
emergency in tbe case of tbe September de
livery. However, it Is said that tbe Armour
Grain company will bring injunction rrrxeed
inga against tbs directors to prevent them
from declaring an emergency.
• If shorts in Kansas City September wheat
1 are permitted to make delivery on track, it
will be done with considerable difficulty. They
will probably find it necessary to purcbate tbe
| wheat from outside markets with elevator
■ facilities for mixing to tbe grades required
F tor delivery, which would lead to an abnormal
! wheat movement to this point. Railroad* fear
• a congestion of wheat here if deliveries of
• advance demurrage charges from 81 to 33 a
• car per day.
THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1912.
SUMMARY OF PROCEEDINGS
OF THE STATE CONVENTION
Th* state Democratic convention met at Macon shortly after 10 o’clock
Wednesday morning.
Senator W. J. Hanis, of Cedartown, was elected permanent chairman;
Hardy Ulm was elected secretary, and committees were appointed.
Among these committees was the new state executive committee that
is to direct political affairs during the next two years.
Nath R. Broyles, recorder of Atlanta, withdrew from the race for
the appellate court, in favor of Judge John R. Pottle. He withdrew be
cause of the fact that Judge Pottle received a popular majority.
Senator A. O. Blalock withdrew from the race for commissioner of
agriculture, and urged that a candidate bo elected who’ is not a member
of the fertilizer trust
J. D. Price was elected commissioner of agriculture, succeeding J. J.
Brown. . .
Deposed Baby
Emperor Has
Queue Cut Off
(By Aseocieted Tress.)
NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—The Young
China association is overjoyed at the
report just received from Peking that
the imperial clan has cut the queque
from the head of Pu-Yi. the deposed
baby emperor of China.
Members of the association here think
that this is the most hopeful sign of
the submission of the Manchus to popu
lar rule.
The receipt of the news set the mem
bers of the Young China association
searching through Chinatown for those
who might still be wearing the queque
and chasing them into barber shops.
In an appeal to the press the associa
tion begged the cartoonists to hereafter
omit the queque in caricatures of the
Chinese.
WHEN DOES PRICE GO IN
AS FARM COMMISSIONER?
Continued From Page One.
office until his successor is duly elected
and qualified. The commissioner is
elected at the same time and in the
same manner as the governor and
Other state house officers. There the
law stops. It does not say whether
the secretary of state shall canvass
the returns and declare the result or
whether the general assembly shall
declare them.
Another ambiguous point is as to when
the term of the co miss ion er ends—
whether in October or November—as it
used to end when the legislature met in
the winter; or in June or July, as the
terms of office of the governor and other
constitutional officers were Axed to end
when the legislature changed its time of
meeting to the tummer.
The law is specific in its provision that
the election returns of the constitutional
officers—governor, secretary of state,
comptroller general, attorney general and
treasurer—shall be canvassed by the leg
islature. It says nothing about how the
returns for the offices created by statute
(among which comes the commissioner
of agriculture) shall be canvassed or de
clared. except that the consolidated re
turns must be reported to the secretary
of state.
Mr. Conner’s commission for the '"un
expired term" of Mr. Hudson might be
Construed to entitle him to the office
until July 1, 1913, inasmuch as Mr. Hud
son was commissioned until that date by
Governor Smith, were it not that if the
commission is not in accord with the law
the latter would of course govern the
question.
There is much conjecture and some
radical difference of opinion over this
point at the capital. It is regarded as
[ probable that Mr. Price will refer it to
the attorney general for a decision. A
I fcrmoF case decided by Attorney Genera*
Hart, which might be regarded a* a pre
! cedent, was that of Prison Commissioner
■ Davidson, who succeeded G. B. Hutchens
i on the prison board on October 15. a cou
! pie of years ago, ten days after the elec
' tion. The secretary of state canvassed
I the returns and declared the result. This
' was done under an opinion by the attor
ney general.
SHIPPING GRAFT IS
UNEARTHED IN FRISCO
(By Associated Trees.)
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29 —Sixty thou
rand dollars a year are being stolen from
the state of California by prominent
' shipping men around San Francisco bay
I according to the findings of investigators
' and Daniel Ryan, attorney fqr the state
1 board of harbor commissioners, who an
nounces that civil and criminal proceed
ings are contemplated. The cases are
said to resemble the sugar weighing
frauds in the east.
Blanks provided by the state to show
tonnage on which to base harbor dues
have been filled in by clerks and agents
of the shippers involved so as to show,
according to Ryan, much less tonnage
of merchandise than the real amount
handled. One company involved, it is
said, alreikly has made restitution to the
state and a general scramble by others
to do likewise is expected.
MASSACRE OF ALL
AMERICANS THREATENED
(By Aacoctetod Trass.)
DOUGLAS, Aris., Aug. 29.—Americans
will be killed by robe’s after September
15, is the declaration brought here from
Col. Nalio Camps, a leader of Orozco’s
rebel army who with 800 men is parading
along tNe southern Pacific of New Mex
ico below Nogalos, Artz.
An only alternative given by the rebel
leader is the resignation of President
Madero.
Based on a report received from Thom
as Holland, former Arizona ranger and
United States custom officer, American
Consul Dye, of Aguapriala. Mex., wired
the state department at Washington that
Camps declares the state of Sonora will,
be devastated unless the Mexican presl-
| dent resigns.
School Days Begin
(Special Dispatch to The Jour
nal.)
ANNISTON. Ala., Aug. 29
The Anniston city schools will
open Monday, September 16.
The public schools for whites, on
Quintard, Wilmer and Pine ave
nues, and the Fifth Ward school
will be open on the same day,
and the work of organization for
the term will begin. The Sev
enth Street and Fifth Ward
Schools for negroes will also
open the regular day. There is
ja pressing demand for more
facilities. Superintendent Mur
phey says the children are taught
in the halls of the different
buildings in the city, owing to
the fact that the study rooms are
crowded. In his opinion, Annis
ton should have another public
school building to accommodate
pupil*. ,
Loser Will Be
Man Who Wins
Eggshell Girl
(By A»sooUtsd Proas.)
HACKENSACK, N. J., Aug. 29.—A
girl on a farm near Topeka, Kan.,
whence eggs are shipped as far east as
Hackensack, has a fondness for the
romance of egg-shell acquaintance.
Her name and address, on two eggs,
fell into the hands of Theodore Sidore
and George Zile, warm friends, who
room and board together. Neither of
the young men told the other of the
discovery, but started a correspondence
which resulted in each receiving the
girl’s photograph and many letters.
Finally two proposals were sent west
ward and each brought a letter of ac
ceptance.
One evening recently each of the
men accused the other of being love
sick, whereupon the confessions were
forthcoming that each was the victim
of the same egg-shell romance. Neither

ments than any other farmer in the
world. The American manufacturers
who make agricultural implements sell
them much cheaper on the other side of
the water. It wa< a very natural act
on the part of the Democratic congress,
therefore, to put agricultural implements
on the free Met, to put fence wire also
on the free list, «n(j the bagging and
ties which the southern farmer needs
and uses for his cotton. It added lum
ber and laths and shingles and leather
and shoes, and salt and meats, thinking
not of the farmer alone, but of all of us
who are struggling to live and pay our
bills. But such changes did not com
port xhth the ideak and plans of the
trustees, and the president vetoed the
free list. I dare sat he was right from
his point of view, for he represented the
trustees and not the people.
THE BIG BANKERS.
“The trustees represent all the big
bankers in whose hands our banking
system lies to be manipulated, and no
Republican administration, no Republi
can congress, has attempted to serve the
farmer as he ought ta be served in the
matter of credits. It is practically im
possible for the farmer to borrow money
on the kind of security ordinarily de
manded at the banks. It does not serve
his purpose to borrow it for the short
periods insisted upon by most bankers.
He needs rather long credits, and he
needs them on his own kind of security.
"He can’t be mortgaging his farm ev
ery time he needs a little money. Other
countries have discovered how ta assist
him. An admirable system of agricul
tural societies has been developed in Ire
land, and an excellent one in Germany,
and the present Democratic congress has
done nothing better than to provide for a
careful investigation of this subject with
a view to early action, so that the law
may be fitted to thß creation of these
new instruments of business which the
farmer so much npeds and ought ta
have.”
Gov. Wilson on the Stump;
Cheered by Pennsylvania
(By Associatod Treu.)
HARRISBURG, P<_ t Aug. 29.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson did a little stump
speaking today in spite of himself. Not
intending to make any but scheduled ad
dresses, he was greeted by such big
crowds at both Lancaster and Harris
burg that the candidate found himself
making speeches from both ends of his
car, shaking hands with hundreds and
waiving his hat. ?
"I am very much more interested in
you than you are in me,” said the gov
ernor, "because the interesting and de
lightful part of campaigning as I have
found it has been that the country is
witnessing an uprising of the people. A
crowd like this means business. You are
discovering not only that the govern
ment ought to belong to you but that if
you only ’hump’ yourselves it will be
long ta you.
M *l don't mean to stir up passion or
feeling. I simply mean that we must get
together again. That is what I am in
terested in; and the reason I said I am
interested in you more than you are in
me Is that I know the strength of a
public man is in proportion tp those mep
who are gathered with him/’
The speech was cheered.
The governor also was greeted by a
large crowd at Harrisburg where he
stopped only a short time on his way
to Williams Grove.
RECOUNT IS REFUSED
BY CHAIRMAN BAUM
(Special Dispatch ta The Journal.)
QUITMAN, Aug. 29.—Cairman Baum,
of the Brooks county executive commit
tee, has denied the request of Judge T
A. Parker and John W. Bennet, of Way
cross, for a recount of votes in this coun
ty. Judge Parker wrote requesting the
recount and his letter was followed by a
wire from Mr. Bennet. No specific
charges of irregularity were made, and
there has been no hint that such charges
would be made.
It is this fact and also that the request
for a recount was made after the limit
for such requests prescribed had passed,
that decided Chairman Baum in his re
fusal.

THE BRIGHT OUTLOOK AHEAD
•FOR THE POULTRY INDUSTRY
The increase price of both poultry and eggs will force many people to
keep their owp fowls to produce their eggs from now on, and I look to
see the greatest demand the coming winter for thoroughbreds of not only
poultry, but live stock, that has ever been known before, especially In the
southern states. Everything at present points to this state of affairs.
As there has been a large corn crop produced all over the southern
states this year, this corn will be converted into meat, poultry and eggs
and the people who have an abundance of feed and prospects for a good
harvest this fall are now making preparations to stock their places with
poultry, cattle and hogs and attempt to ”1186 more of these products here
after, especially In the south than we have ever raised before. I do not be
lieve that there has been during any season since I have been Interested
In the poultry Industry that indications of all kinds and prospects generally ‘
looked better or more promising ahead for the poultryman and the
farmer for a good business during the next few years to come In this line
of work than there is just ahead of us at the present time.
The fairs will soon begin, also the poultry shows and hundreds of peo
ple are beglnnng to make inquiries and are placing their orders now pre
paring to get themselves in readiness for this winter’s work. The breeders
who have their chickens in readiness in good condition now should mate
a few of their best birds and begin hatching during September and continue
throughout the entire winter, and by keeping the little chickens dry and
taking care of them as they should be you will find that these fall hatched
chickens will be as easily raised and will do you as much good aijd bring
in as much revenue as any chickens you have ever raised. The price of
live and dressed poultry and eggs now is far cheaper in comparison than
any other meat products, but they are bringing better prices now than was
ever known before, and the poultryman of this country as well as aH
other sections should feel more encouraged than they have in many years
past. This year has been so discouraging that I don’t suppose ten per
cent of the fancy poultry breeders of the country have made a dollar out
of their business this season, but those have been able to hold on and
stay with their work I think certainly have a great future ahead of them
and I see no reason why there should not be the best prospects during
the coming season for the best opportunity to make money that they have
ever had before.
Usually the best time to work harder and attend to your business bet
ter to get money' out of it when the time is right is while everything is at
its lowest ebb, because in every line of industry much activity usually fol
lows immediately afterwards and there is always a large amount of busi
ness to be had every season after a dull season has past. Take, for instance,
the cotton business. Usually the year following high prices you will al
most always see a low price market, and low prices one year usually see
high prices the next. This not only applies to cotton, but to all food
products, and while supply and demand usually governs the price the end
of the season usually shows a balance in comparison to quantity produced.
For instance, the past season the short supply of poultry that is now on
hand and the increase price will make up the dollars and cents for the
deficient in number produced, and after all there will be a saving in the
feed bill, and in the wind-up less fowls will bring just about as much money
as if there had been a great number. The same applies to the cotton crop.
A small crop of cotton usually brings as much, if not more in dollars and
cents and makes a much larger per cent of profit than a large crop at a
low price.
This season I look to see the number of chickens produced while small
in number bring an equal revenue as such a large crop would have
brought.

QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
I want to ask you one question
about my old cock. (He is of the
Buff Cochin). He eats hearty,
looks w’ell, but he will stagger
backwards and falls down on his side
and lies there for half an hour at
a time before he can get on his
feet. I wish you would tell me
the cause of it and give me a
remedy for same. Will he ever get
over it and will he ever be of any
service to me again?
ANSWER.
It is likely that your bird is
badly infested with insects and you
should examine him closely. If you
And this to be the case, dip him
thoroughly in a solution of one part
Bee Dee or Chloro Naptholeum Dip
to 75 parts of water and give him
half a bottle of vaseline a day for
several days. Feed him well on
corn bread soaked in milk.
QUESTION.
I have in the neighborhood of
50 chickens and they have taken a
disease that is commonly called
sorehead in this neighborhood.
They first shed all the feathers off
their heads and begin to rub their
heads against the butt of their
wings and in two or three days
their heads begin to scab over until
finally their eyes close up and I
find in working with them they
have a thin mucous in their eyes
and they sit around drooped about
until they die and some of their
tongues rot off. Some tell me it is
caused by eating fruit and others
watermelons, but they get very
little of either and some people tell
me wet weather causes it, but I
can’t think so, for we have had but
little rain for the last month. I
want to say they have no liee, fleas
and but very few mites on them,
and I have been giving them plenty
of fresh water with Epsom salts
in it and feed them scrape from
dining table and corn meal mash.
Please reply through The Atlanta
Journal at once and tell me what
is the matter with them and what
is the cause of this disease and
give me the best remedy, and I cer
tainly will appreciate same. f
I allow my chickens to run at’
large and go where they please.
J. HENRY GAULT,
Kelton, S. C.
ANSWER.
Your chickens have what is
known as roup, which usually fol
lows sorehead. It would be best
for you to catch every chicken on
the place and dip them during some
hot day in a solution of one part
of Bee Dee or Chloro Dip to 50
parts of water, washing their heads
good at the time of dipping. Then
divide them into small flocks and
put them in yards where they can
get nothing to eat except what you
give them. Keep before them all
the tittle 'in a self-feeding dry
mash hopper either Aunt ' Patsy
THERE are hundreds of people
who keep good poultry most
ly for their own private
use and in small flocks have good
thoroughbreds and are keeping
them costly for their own private
use and their own pleasure. This
class of people have been educated
to the point now where they are
not satisfied with anything except
something good, and especially do
they demand and keep a good male
bird at the head of their pen and
will always continue to want and
will buy high priced male birds
for new blood. It has created a
market and demand that can only
be supplied by the old and repu
table breeders and those who have
kept up their fowls, have the goods
that are worth the money and can
supply this demand now are find
ing ready sales at better prices
than ever before for every good
male bird that they have to offer.
The demand for male birds this
season will be greater than It has
ever been before and especially if
they are good. <
mash or a mash conovosed of one
part corn meaL one part shorts and
two parte wheat bran with some
meat scrap and charcoal mixed, and
feed them twice a day on grain
feed such as the ordinary scratch
feed sold on the market. De not
give them any soft mash feeds more
than twice each week and it should
then have some good condition pow
ders in it. Every day until they are
better put a half grain tablet of
permanganate of potash to a gal
lon of water to drink and to every
15 chickens give a tablespoonful of
sulphur on Tuesdays in * their wet
mash and on Fridays a like amount
of Epsom salts in the same way.
Chickens will often absolutely re
fuse drinking water with salts in
it and will suffer bad effects from
it afterwards. The better way is
to always give salts in a mash.
Howeyer, one should use judgment
in giving both salts and sulphur
and not feed in such quantities as
to cause their systems to become
lax.
