¢OO T 0 IMPROVE
S
CENTRAL RAILROAD WILL GIVE
THAT AMOUNT FOR BETTER
GRAZING FOR CATTLE.
The management of the Central
of Georgia railway believes p..solu
tion of the pasture problem will be
ot inculculable penefit to our stock
raisers, and because of the crying
need for more good pastures as soon
as possible, if we are ?o make th'e
success with cattle raising which is
possible ; and being firmly convince.d
ihat the lack of better pastures is
the greatest flaw in our agricultural
system today the Central of Geor
gia pelieves it worth while to invest
omething in an effort to promote
petter pastures, apd wants to spend
s hundred dollars in Terrell and each
of the other couptn_es it serves to en
courage the puilding of some real
pastures.
To prove the value of good pas
tures there must be some practical,
visible demonstrations of what a
good pasture is. These will cost
omething in time and money, but
the agricultural depa_rtment.of the
Central of Georgia railway will glad-
Iy share in the expense, and will pay
half of the cost of the pioneer efforts
toward making some permanent pas
tures, the total amount so paid in
each county not to exceed $lOO. This
is not a donation oxt gift, but an in
vestment, the purpose of which is
io hasten the bringing about of con
jitions which will mean greater pros
perity aoriculturally for the coun
ties in which the work is conducted,
and eventually for the railroad which
serves those counties.
The Central of Georgia simply
sants to co-operate with the men
who will take the lead in establish
ine a real pasture as an object les
on in each county, and thus prove
he value of good pastures. The first
dep is to find a man who has some
cattle, needs a pasture, and is willing
tp spend some money to get one.
Such a man can greatly benefit his
community at the same time he is
helping himself. Every farmer who
has ten or more head of cattle should
be sinterested in making a better
pasture, and it is hoped they will
wsk J. F. Jagkson, agricultural agent,
C. of Ga., Savannah, Ga., for a cir
cular which outlines _the require
ments for a test pasture, and a copy
of the form of agreement ' under
which the €entral of Georgia will
pay its share of the cost.
This section must raise more cat
fle. That we shall do so is a certain
ty, Better pastures is the only thing
we lack. The cattle tick is going—
will soon be gone, Better cattle are
coming. There has been a great in
crease in pure-bred cattle during the
past five years—and we want more.
But to compete with other cattle
raising sections we must have cheap
feed—an abundant supply which cat
ile can get every hour in the day,
and without labor cost for putting
it before them. The answer is pas
tures.
We have an abundant rainfall. We
have a long growing and grazing
season. And we have a great variety
of prasses and forage plants. But we
have never really tried to build per
manent pastures.
If northern cattle raisers can
show a profit from pastures on land
worth two or three hundred dollars
or more, and find it profitable to
manure, fertilize and devote consid
aable time and labor to keeping
these Dastures in good condition
srely we can afford to spend some
money in buliding permanent pas
fires on our cheaper land.
The experiment stations arve try
ing out different grasses, and the
soricultural colleges are testing
f.“"‘:b'.”]‘;‘ of preparation, seeding,
iwnlmng_ ete., but final test must
be made by the cattle themselves.
If we had real pastures no other
section of the country cquld beat us
in raising' cattle profitab(‘_v. In value

JUDGE LAING WILL
ARBITRATE FOR COUNTY
He and Representative of State Will
Select Third Man.
Judge J. A. Laing has been ap
pointed by the county board of tax
equalizers as the representative of
that body in arbitrating the tax val
ues of Terrell county, which has be
come necessary because of the de
mand of the state tax commissioner
that the returns of the county be in
creased 40 per cent, or $2,000,000,
and the refusal of the equalizers to
comply with the request,
Mr. J. L. Tillman, of Quitman, has
been appointed to represent the
state tax officer and he has suggested
as the third arbitrator Mr. J. T.
Grantham, of Thomasville. Judge
Laing has submitted to Mr. Tillinan
the names of several well-known cit
izens of Randolph, Lee and Sumter
counties, either one of whom would
be satisfactory to him. If he and Mr,
Tillman cannot agree the third man
will be named by W. A. Wright, the
controller general of the state.
AFTER THE SUMMER MONTHS
STONE CASTLE CHAPTER HAS
INTERESTING SESSION.
The first fall meeting of Stone
Castle chapter, D. A. R., was held
Wednesday with Mrs. J. G. Dean as
hostess. Each one present enjoyed
taking up another year’s work after
the summer vacation. The house was
cheery with bright yellow! flowers
and growing plants, Every one miss
ed the beloved regent, who, though
in a sanitarium in Atlanta, thought
of her chapter and sent a telegram
of greeting and regret at her ab
sence. Mrs. Weaver, as vice regent,
presided over the meeting with much
ease and grace and dispatched bus
iness in a very efficient manner.
After the usual patriotic and de
votional opening exercises the min
utes of the May meeting were read
and adopted. Mrs. W. A. Davidson
tendered, her resignation as treasur
er, being unable on account of ill
health to hold the office longer. It
was not acted upon. The registrar
reported four application papers
passed by the national board.
The vice regent announced that
vear books would be dispensed with
this year, and the program of each
meeting would be read to the chap
ter a month in advance. A history
of France will be studied this year,
and Miss Louise McNulty’s literary
paper for the afternoon, “Founders
of France,” was very entertaining.
After this the Frénch national an
them “The Marseillaise,” was ren
dered on the Sonora. Being request
ed by the state regent to observe
LaFayette’s birthday, the 6th of
September, Mrs. R. E. Bell read a
selection, “The Noble Ally of Ameri
.ca,” which made all feel very proud
and grateful that we had in a meas
ure repaid that country the debt we
owed. -
The meeting was then turned over
to the hostesses of the afternoon,
who served a delightful ice course.

' NEW YORK.—Harry M. Stevens,
ifamed the country over as caterer to!
|sport lovers at baseball parks, race
’tracks, six-day bicycle races andi
other popular pastimes was named as
deftendant in a $200,000 alienation!
suit. :
Stevens, who parlayed a peanut in-l
to a fortune of several million dol-‘
lars, is accused, in a suit in the su
ipreme court, with having stolen the
affections of Mrs, Minnie Jacobs
Krakauer, wife of Aronld Krakauer,
formerly secretary to the peanut and
“hot dog” magnate.
In addition to seeking $200,000
from Stevens, Krakauer also started
suit for divorce. He was married in
1892,
In the papers filed in the dliena
|'cion action Krakauer alleges that on
May 16 this year Stevens proceeded‘
to win the affections of Mrs. Kra
kauer. . ‘
Loss and Sorrow Alleged. |
“His efforts in this line,” the com
'plaint read, “eventuated in the loss
by plaintiff of his wife’s society and
comfort, and the plaintiff’s sorrow
and chagrin.”
Stevens, who was served with the
i summons and complaint at the Savoy
Hotel, his home when in this city, in-
Idignantly denied last night that he
won the affections of Mrs. Krakauer,
iHe characterized the suit against him
as an outrage and declared that he
Iwould bitterly contest it on trial.
! Stevens is undoubtedly known to
imore partons of baseball parks, race
itracks and divers other rendezvous of
[sport lovers than any other man in
{the country. Migrating from Niles,
| Ohio, where he still maintains a
| beautiful home and holds several
!bank directorships, he made his de
lbut at the polo grounds twenty-seven
| years ago. He started on the prover
' bial shoestring, and was soon turn
ling 5-cent bags of peanuts into big
!money. §io :
i The polo grounds was his f;rst big
| concession, and today he s _the
| greatest concessionaire in America,
| with the catering privileges at Eb
| bets fields, both Boston clubs, Madi
{son Square Garden, the auto shows
|at the auditorium in Chicago, the
' Grand Cgntral Palace, the Belmont,
!Aqueduct, Saratoga and Laurel race
[tracks and numerous other amuse
{ment centers.
| Three of his four sons have been
| associated with him in the dispensing
‘of peanuts, soda pop, score cards,
i’and the like.
