Talking about practicing what you preach and keeping everlastingly at it; T. J. Brooks, of Tennessee, is the fel low who believes in doing exactly that thing. Brooks has been preaching Rural Economies and intelligent marketing for these many years and has been try ing to instill into the minds of not only the farmers generally this very impor tant subject, but has endeavored to teach the farmers’ beys also—but that has been a task. No college of agri culture had such a chair—there were no text books to be found which dealt even remotely with subject; so Brooks is writing a text-book himself, and he not only expects to teach from it, but expects It or some other to be used in the near future by every agricultural college'in the country. When G. R. Hightower, ex-presldent of the Mississippi State Farmers.’ union was elected president of the A. & M. College of Mississippi he sent for Brookr>. “Brooks he said,” that matter of teaching marketing ind rural econ omics in the agricultural colleges over which we have talked, is about to be put into actual effect. “We will establish a chair in the uni versity here and you will have charge of it. “A department of this kind is what is needed in every college of the coun try. and they will eventually have It,’’ replied Brooks. So the A. & M. College of Mississippi will have a department of marketing and rural economics the first of the kind ever established by any college in the world—and T. J. Brooks will be in charge.

Ga., Bept. 7.—Since gas has been turned on in a number of Albany homes, fallowing the completion of the new municipal gas plant, It has devel oped that mortal terror exists among some of the cooks, who have refused to have anything to do with the gas stoves. In one home, where an old ne gro woman has been cooking for fifteen years, the mistress of the house has been politely but emphatically informed that as soon as the gss Is turned on in that house she is going to “leave from there.” In the home of Secretary Eugene B. Adams, of the Albany chamber of com merce. there was great commotion when the gas was turned on. The cook at first refused to touch the stove, but finally was persuaded to get close enough for Mrs. Adams to show her how to light the gas. As sometimes happens there was enough air in the pipes to cause a loud report when the match was touched to the burner, and the cook, emitting a loud yell, ran like a scared rabbit through the house to the front porch. Finally she was persuaded to return to the kitchen, but Mrs. Adams had to cook most *of the breakfast herself. At dinner, after the rice had been put on, it boiled over, and the resultant hissing and* sputtering noise so frightened the woman that she ran out the back door, through the back yard and up the alley. Mrs. Adams sent Mr. Adams after her, and he succeeded tn bringing the trem bling cook back again. She was shown how to turn the gas down low, so that the rice would not boll over, but she turned it down just a little too low and it went out with a loud “pop.” That settled it. There was a loud screatn. a swish of calico and—goodby, cook. STEPHENS INSTITUTE OPENS-FALL SESSION (Special Dispatch to The Journal ) CRAWFORDVILLE. Ga..

One denizen charges in a letter to Mayor Moore that one night of this week a locomotive engineer began to blow his whistle at midnight and after running the gamut of all the signals known by engineers, he began to play with the whistle. He declared that he tried to imitate the cow bellowing, the jackas braying, the horse whinnying, the lion roaring, the yelping of a hit dog and the scream of the hyena. Such a dis turbance was branded by him as a nuisance and should be stopped by the passage of an ordinance prohibiting such. MRS. SAM P.

Jones gave out the following statement today: "My name has been mentioned in the columns of The Journal as having been present at a recent meeting of ths Moose party. This creates the impres sioh among my friends and others, that I am taking aa active stand In politics, which is entirely erroneous. I was not present at a 'Moose' meeting in Atlanta. or at any other place. I have no interest personally, or otherwise, in the political fortunes of, any candidate except the Prohibition candidate for president, and I shall have nothing to do with any organization that touches upon politics except through the Woman's Christian Temperance union society, of which I am a member.” ■ FIRST BALE OF COTTON I FOR JACKSON THIS YEAR (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
