ary. Dr. Soule has mapped out the
Itenerary and it will traverse every
railroad In the state of Georgia,
with the exception of the Western!
and Atlantic, and will consume a per-;
lod of thirty-live days. During this
time rural towns of an aggregate
population of 350,000 people will

The special train, which Is to be!
furnished free by the railroads. Is to>

liever In the feeding qualities of cot
ton seed meal, and will urge Its UBe.
