Are these interests so manipulat ing conditions as to put the state of Georgia in the position in making contract under the existing law, of fixing an established state price for the goods which is practically double what it was a year ago? While neither of these questions finds direct answer in the action of the State Board of Entomology in thus far declining to make a contract for this state's needed supply of calcium arsenate, it is within line of knowledge, that such ideas have had their influence upon the minds of the board members. The board has made the direct ap peal to the business people of the state to come forward with a proper, iy financed and organized company for the Immediate erection of a plant in thia state to manufacture tbo goods at least in sufficient quantity to supply th ecotton growing needs of this state. In the event of that ap peal not finding fruitful favor, the put to work and the cost be paid off by a small bond issue, to be liquidated with a fund to be derived from added percentage over the actual cost of manufacture in the distribu tion of the finished goods. Tuesday the board of entomology held a conference, lasting the after, noon through, to look further into the prospect of making a state ci tract, and at that conference, it learned, it was found that the mar facturers still hold to the material advancement in the prices year’s figures which were originally submitted. Thereupon the board unanimously adopted a resolution ‘recommending to the business inter ests of the state that a stock pany be formed as quickly as practi cable for the erection,' maintenance and operation of a calcium arsenate plant to be located at some point within the state of Georgia easily accessible to our lime deposits." second proposition, if that suggestion is not carried out at once the resolution recommends calling upon the next General Assemb! consider the advisability of ereiting ■mall plant to manufacture calcium arsenate to be told to the farmers at cost of production plus a margin to return the neccessary bonds and pay interest on the same which would give the «tate of Georgia cheaper calcium arsenate and a plant owned TOE BEAUTIFUL Fashion Walk 25 Wonderful Gowns Latest Creations From Paris LIVING MODELS To miss it is to miss the Season’s Treat Benefit Business and Professional Womens Club CURTAIN 8:30 PROMPT by the state, without the levying of any direct tax to pay for same.' While Georgia was enabled last year to make a contract for a state supply at nine cents per pound, the best price that so far can be made is fourteen cents for a small quantity, and at the present time it appears the fixed price which will be adhered to will be around eighteen cents per pound, or just double what it cost the cotton farmers last year. The comment from those who have been in direct touch with the negotia tions is that the use of calcium senate is no longer either an experi ment or temporary thing, but has become an essential to the production of cotton, just as important been the use of fertilizer and, profit ing by this advance foresight of necessarily increasing demand time goes on, and the experience of the fertilizer manufacturers and dis tributors, those in control of the cal cium arsenate supply are endeavor ing to "feather their own nest" while the going is good. One of these authorities denies that there is any justification in the claim of ability to obtain the arsenous acid with which to make the goods since that ingredient is obtainable from Sweden, Germany, or even right the borders of this state from Duck- town in sufficient quantity to take care of the needs of this state. While none of the officials cor cemed will make the direct admii sion that such is a fact, it is quite evident that the board of entomology has set about a "trust busting” pro. gram before the "trust” gets a foot hold.
