But Hunters Who Shoot These
Birds Then Will Violate Fed
eral Game Law
ATANTA, July 30.—Under the
law of Georgia it will be legal to
shoot doves from August 1 to 31
inclusive,, and the hunting season
for 1924 accordingly will open at
that time, it was learned at the
state capitol today. This legisla
tion, however, is in conflict with
the national law, and game wardens
say they would not advise anyone
to shoot these birds until Novem
ber 20, when the state and fed
eral laws agree.
The law governing the killing of
doves regulates the daily bag to°2s.
There are two periods each year
in which this class of game may be
killed under Georgia law, respec
tively August 1 to 31 and Novem
ber 20 to March 1. The national
law extends from November 20 to
January 31. The first period of
1924, which soon opens, was ar
ranged, it was thought, because the
birds in Georgia leave that section
before November.
The season on squirrels of the
“cat” variety opens on October 1
and closes March 1. Two deer
may be killed in a season. This
season will open November 1 and
close December 31.
Summer or wood duck may be
Killed from September I to Jmiqary 1
I under-yiip/fjeojjgia Taw, l>§titfce
national law prohibits the killing
of either wood or summer duck.
Migratory duck may be killed un
der the Georgia law from Septem
ber to April 20. The national
Aw gives the dates as November 1
to January 31.
The season bn plovers opens No
vember 20 and closes March 1 un
der the Georgia law. The national
law requires the season to open on
November 20 and close January 31.
The season on rail or marshhen

LUTHERANS PLAN NEW
MISSION ACiIVHIES
FARGO, N. D. July 30 —Efforts
to .create a more extensive interest
jn the establishment of missions' in
China and Madagascar, and the
subsequent intensive religious and
moral training of 10,000,000
heathens will constitute the main
work and aim of the General Mis
sion Conference of the Norwegian
Lutheran Church of America, at its
fall national convention here.
Fifteen internationally prominent
missionaries and religious workers
will speak. The convention is ex
pected to launch a drive throughout
the nation for more and better
equipped Lutheran missions.
All meetings will be held und r
the auspices of the Foreign Mis
sion board of which the Rev. Gullix
son of Minot North Dakota, is chair
man. ,
tg* Thi Lutherans, according to the
jSiev. J. D. Runsvold of Fargd, ' sec
retary of the Mission Board , ex
pend $325,000 each year alone for
its missions. One hundred and
fifty missionaries are already in the
field, he states and are accomplish
ing exceptional results.

JUNE MUCH MLEB

' exception of Alabanla, have report
-5 ed improvement. In Alabahia, the
review shows that the condition of
■ the cotton crop stood at 70 per cent
! on May 25 as well as June 25.
Shortage of farm ha ids, which
L made it necessary for the farmers
to work longer hours, coupled with
the limited credit which a few have
been able to secure, has resulted in
’ rigid economy being practiced, the
‘ review states, while the increased
’ use, of poison'for insects, following
last winter’s cold spell, has resulted
iij a much smaller amount of wee-
■ vils during 1924. The output of
' sugar and ridb in Louisiana is de
scribed as being “somewhat better
1 than last year.”
' Recessions somi what greater than
probably expected because .of sea
sonal factors, is shown in business
lines at this period, it is stated in
* the review, in retail apd wholesale
trades. Until more definite in-
, formation is gained regarding the
output of the season’s crops, ac
cording to the review, business is
described as “generally hesitating.”
An increase in unemployment
continued in June in the Birming
ham district due to part time oper
ations in various industries, al
though building and road work con
struction still employed large num
bers, the review further shows.
’Small increases from month to
.month are noted in the saving de
posit statistics, while the total sav
ings held by ninety four banks at
the end of June was 7.1 per cent
greater than compared with the
same period in 1923. Although re
serves are high, bank loans are
given as being at a low point, the
same conditions being true of the
Federal Reserve Bank, which re
serve ratio- was reported higher in
the weekly statement issued on July
16 than in any preceding report
date in almost a year and a half.
The review continues.
“Retail Trade: Sales and stocks
both registered declines in June, ac
cording td confidential figures re
ported by 43 department stores in
the sixth district. The index num
ber of sales by those 43 reporting
stores in June is 96.6, compared
with 106.4 in May, and stocks and
i merchandise on hand at the end of
June were 6.7 per cent lower than
a month earlier. This decline in
sales is somewhat greater than that
which occured last year at the same'
time, when the index number de
clined from 108.1 in May to 104.7
in June.”
“Wholesale Trade: Confidential
reports made to the Federal Reserve
Bank for June by more ihan 150
representative wholesale firms in
the Sixth District, in nine different
lines qf trade, show- a smaller
volume of business than in either
the preceding month or the corre
sponding month last year. Electrical
supplies is the only line to show a
larger volume of sales in June than
in May or June 1923.
“Dry Goods: Dry goods sales dur
•ing June at Atlanta and New Or
hans were larger than ia May, but
declines at. other points resulted in
an average decrease for the district
of 10.4 per cent, whil-j compared
with June 1923, sak 3 showed a de
cline of 17.3 per cent. Collections
were reported good by six firms, •
fair by thirteen and poor by one.
“Agriculture: The area in cultiva
tion throughout the belt is estimated
by the- Department of Agriculture
to be about 40,403,000 acres, an m
crease of 1,702,000, or 4.4 per cent
as compared with the revi Fe estinmtl
ci acieagc ip,cultivation a year ago i

Juno 2>. Georgia’s crop-is In |
better condition and the proapeets
for making a crop brighter than in |
several years. Fields jy, J uu< . I
were reported to be in a good state !
of cultivation in most of the state,
plants are fruiting rapidly in South-j
ern Georgia and squares forming ini
the northern part of the state. Very)
few weevils are found in northern
Georgia, and the number in the
southern part of the Mate is very
much smaller than last year.
“Reports from Alabama
a stand on June 25 abjut
cent mid a poisoning rtf
about 13.5 per cent of rhe acreage
an an attempt the weevil.
The number of Weevils reported on
June 25 was 2& per cent lower than
last year. Notwithstanding a de
crease of 35 per cent in the acreage
planted in Florida, prospects are re
ported good for a crop in that state.
“Reports and statistics from .Ala
bama indicate increased production
this year over last of the principal
crops excepting sweet potatoes and
oats. The corn crop is estimated at
neary six million bushels larger
than last year, while a considerable
increase is also indicated in cotton,
peanuts, white potatoes and sorgh
um syrup. The acreage planted to
corn in Georgia is reported to bo
4,115,000, an increase of two per
cent over last year, and the produc
tion is estimated at nearly 63,000,-
000 bushels, compared with 49,215.-
000 bushels last year.
, “Financial: Declines in loans and
discounts and continued increases in
time and savings deposits are indi
cated in reports received from mem
ber banks in selected cities for June
land early July. The total of loans
and discounts by 36 member banks
which report weekly reached on
July 9 a new low point for this
year, although still a little higher
thort on the corresponding reporting
date last year.
“Employment: The month of
June brought some increase in un
employment in the sixth district.
Idleness is probably most pronounc
ed among textile mills where quite
a number have closed down and
others are on part time or ere oper
ating with reduced forces. Building
and construction in the cities, how
ever, and highway road work have
continued to employ large number
of workers.
“A surplus of common ?abor is
apparent in some sections of Geor
gia. Fair sized building progress
in the larger cities afford employ
ment to the resident tradesman.
Most industrial plants are operating
and skilled labor is very well em
ployed. The supply of and demand
for farm labor are about evenly
balanced. A surplus of labor in At
lanta is particularly noticeable
among textile and cotton oil work
ers. Most plants are operating
though some are on part time sche
dules. Cotton mills at other points
in the state are on part time but
with this exception most industrial
plants are running full time.
