The above call, Issued by some of the most prominent citizens of the county, should receive the full re sponse of those to whom It is ad dressed. The Herald has already re ferred several tlm'es to the fact that the meeting had been called, and ex- presed the hope that the farmers would not fall to respond. It is very desirable thnt there be a local organization of the Southern Cotton Association, Dougherty is one of the few counties of the 'state where none exists. This ip not as it should be, and it Is to be regretted that neith er of the former efforts to effect or ganization was successful. Let the farmers of the county' re spond to this call.

Atlanta, Ga., June IB.—“The cotton crop In Georgia has been damaged not less than 25 per cent, by the heavy rain, winds and cool weather of the past'few days." So stated Commissioner of Agricul ture T. G. Hudspn yesterday. Contin uing, Commissioner Hudson said: “In South and Middle Georgia the damage will be much heavier than In North Georla. Terrific rains fell over that area, and beat the plant to the ground. Some time ago considerable areas of cotton were practically ruined by lice, and fields had to be replanted. “Then some fair, warm weather came along and stopped the ravages of the lice—nothing but hot sunshine and warm nights will kill them. With a recurrence of cloudy, cool weather the lice will reappear. “And still another condition Is to lie taken Into consideration. The contin ued tains in the early part of May mado It Impossible for farmers to work their crops. The grass got a big start on them, and If the present con ditions prevail long, grass will agalij take possession of the fields. “From reports I have received the rain In South Georgia this week has been extraordinarily heavy, and, com bined with htghwinds. great damage has been wrought to all growing crops. Corn has been blown flat, but of course, if plenty of hot sunshine comes along a great deal of tt will right it self. I believe It Is a conservative es timate now to state that the cotton cljop has been damaged 25 per cent.” Col. 0. B. Stevens, of the Railroad Commission, says that the high winds blew down a large number of hlB fruit trees, and that some damage was done by the washing ratnb. TWO-CENT RATE IN VIRGINIA. New Law Being Put to the Test by Traveling Men Today. Richmond, Va., June 15.—This i^ the date set for the 2-cent rate for 500 and 1,000-mile tickets, as demanded In a law enacted by the last Virginia gen eral assembly, to go into effect. Re ports from various quarters give evi dence of a disposition on the part of the railroads to ignore the new law. On the other hand the commercial travelers’ organizations and others in terested will demand that the roads comply with the new rate law, and In the event of the latter’s refusal will take the matter into the courts. The roads are to be assailed on all sides— protest against payment of the old rates, protest against detaching mile age coupons to pay for transportation at a greater rate than 2 cents a mile, declination to pay more than 2 cents a mile and refusal to get off the train, thereby forcing the conductors to eject them.
