MORE CAPITAL NEEDED
BY POWER CONCERNS
-
Ten Millions of Dollars is Required for
Development Program of Atlanta
Plant, Declares Official.
Atlanta, Ga., November 16—The vi¬
tal importance of ample power supply
for the development of Atlanta anil
surrounding territory, the difficulty in
securing capital to make necessary
extensions in power facilities and the
injury done by insufficient rates,
the principal points stressed by H. M.
Atkinson, chairman of the
of the Georgia Railway and Power
Company in an address before the At¬
lanta real estate board.
Mr. Atkinson declared that his com¬
pany needs more than $10,000,000 for
its development program during the
next two yars, saying that unlss these
extensions are carried out it will be im¬
possible to meet the demands for elec¬
tric power.
Mr. Atkinson outlined the changes
due to .war conditions, and declared
that the costs of various items had in
creased in far larger proportions than
! the increases in public utility rates.
He called for “an understanding of the
simple truth that it is impossible to
make two and two five, or to make for¬
ty, fifty or sixty ' cents equal one bun
dred cents.”
He told how operations under war
conditions resulted in a floating debt
for the power company of around $5,
000,000, slating that the company dur¬
ing the period from 1917 to 1920 furnish¬
ed service out of borrowed money be¬
cause rates were insufficient to pay the
cost of the service. “That” he said,
“is the reason Tugalo dam has not
been finished.”
“Rates that square with the consti
stution of the state, with the law creat
ing the railroad commission and with
the decisions of the supreme court of
the United States will amply provide
the requirements of the money market.
The only cure for present conditions
is a- permanent rule whereby rates that
will pay a fair rate of return on invest¬
ment can be relied on. This is fair,
honest, just rule.”
( H VRITIES ARE AIDED
BY NEEDLE WORK GUILD
Atlanta, Ga., November 16—Mrs. W.
A. Allbright, in a speech to the Bus»r
ness Women’s Club of the A . AN . C. A.
in the Peachtree Arcade, on the wirk
of the Needle Work Guild, described
the great work done by the Guild
which proved a revelation to Atlantians.
Mrs. Allbright told the purpose of the
Guild—procuring new garments for or¬
phans, for hospitals, and homes, and
also household linens for these institu¬
tions, and the stress that is put upon
the newness of those garments. The
members of the Guild contribute these
garments and household linens and
they are distributed to the different
homes and orphanages and hospitals
according to the needs of each.
Mrs. Allbright said all kinds of peo¬
ple are helped—men, women and chil¬
dren, white and colored, regardless of
religious sect or nationality.

ROOT KNOT NEMATODE
Peach trees are readily attacked
Hie root-knot nematode, a small
sitic worm which causes
damage to a large number of
plants. This parasite is present
many southern soils, but is most
ous in the lighter soils of the
plain.
Growers are probably most
with this worm through the knot
which it produces on cotton,
, melons and garden vegetables.
With annual crops the grower
1 able to rotate and thes reduce
tode infestation of the soil, but
peach trees are planted on infested
they generally remain there for a
ber of years and thus serve as
plaoes to increase the number
nematodes from year to year.
It is difficult to determine the loss
due to nematode infesting peach roots,
but from the slow growth of infested
trees as compared with healthy trees
it is certain that maximum yields can
not be expected from the former,
I There are infestation twp possible sources of
nematode of the young
peach orchard; one, infested trees, the
other, infested soil. In some cases trees
are infested in nurseries planted on
nematode soil, hut in such cases the
trees are supposed to be destroyed.
\ According to the nursery inspection
I laws of Georgia, peach trees having
root knots on them must be destroyed
therefore, Georgia growers will do well
to buy their trees from nurseries with¬
in the State which have been inspect¬
ed by State Entomologists. At the
present time it is optional with the
grower where he shall plant his peach
orchard, but for his own good it is ad¬
visable for him to learn whether or not
his soil is infested before setting out an
orchard. As nematodes attack a large
number of both wild and cultivated
plants, it is possible to determine then
j presence in a piece of land by digging
up ing plants the roots. here^and If knots or swellings oth¬
er than those produced by nitrogen
bacteria on the roots of legumes, are
found then the soil is infested with
root-knot nematodes, and should not be
set to peaeh trees. In case all plant
roots are free from knots it is
ble to suppose that the soil is not in¬
fested with roo-knot nematodes.
Where groovers are in doubt as to the of
presenee of nematode infestation
plant roots they may send samples of
such roots to the Georgia Experiment
Station where they will be examined
and reports sent to the grower as to
the presenee or absence of root-knot.

HTHIS is a better roof coating made of preservative oils,
X genuine asphalt and real asbestos rock fibre. It pene¬
trates old dried-out roofs, resaturates the old felts, fills all
pores and softens dry scales.
The asbestos fibre cannot rot, bum or evaporate. It
acts like hair in plaster.
Fibre Coating is equally effective on old wood, metal,
or composition roofs. Apply it with a- brush, just as it
comes from the can or barrel.
Adds years of life to any roof at very small cost.
