THE ATLANTA TRI WEEKLY JOURNAL.
SOUTHEASTERNFAIR
TO GIVE ® coo in
LIVE STOCK PRIZES
Smashing all its former records in
liberality of premiums offered, the
ntth annual premium list of the
Southeastern Fair will be mailed
broadcast throughout the country to
morrow.
Evidence of the desire of the of
ficers of the association to make the
fair from October 16 to October 26
pre-eminent as a mirror of the re
sources and opportunities of the
south, is given by the fact that the
list carries an announcement that in
the livestock department alone $57,-
000 is offered in premiums, while an
additional SII,OOO is to be given to
prize fat cattle and swine.
The same lavish spirit is shown
in the offers made in the scores of
other departments, and the fair this
year takes on national and interna
tional importance due to the fact
that the National Hog and Cattle
Show will be held in conjunction
with the fair, while the United States
department of agriculture has se
lected the Southeastern as the per
manent place for the International
Club Stock Judging Contest.
The Southeastern Fair was estab
lished at a time when the growing
importance of the pure bred livestock
in the south began to attract atten
tion and it at once gave an impetus
to the industry which has reflected
through each annual fair; a growth
and importance that explains why
the executive management of the
Southeastern Fair regard the live
stock department as one of its
greatest features and have each ad
ded a substantial amount to the pre
miums until this year the pure bred
cattle and fat stock show which will
be staged under the name of the Na
tional Hog and Cattle Show will be
the greatest livestock exhibit in
Dixie.
The total money awards to be com
peted for this yiar exceeds $85,000
and the total cost of thn fair will
reach $150,000 which is $15,000 in ex
cess of last year the greater part«*>t

The swine department, which will
be under the direction of Oscar Mills,
is offering increased premiums and
every breed recognized by the dif
ferent associations have a class. The
policy of the Southeastern fair in
matching dollars with all associa
tions has made the annual swine
show the most Important in the
united States. Last year there were
more than 2,000 entries and with the
co-operation of the members of the
Southern Swine Breeders’ association,
who are largely responsible for the
National Hog and Cattle show fea
ture, it will require extra facilities
for taking care of the entries. The
ooo mlums thls year aggre&ate s ls >-
Judging Contest
It was because of the importance
of these two departments and the
fact that the south as a section is
leading all other parts of the United
States in practical club extension
work, that decided the United States
department of agriculture to utilize
the Southeastern fair as the place
most desirable for holding the In
ternational Club stock judging con
test, for the purpose of encouraging
ever state to send a team of their
brightest boys to Atlanta, where the
education and experience they will
acquire through this judging will fit
them to become leaders in their state
and stimulate an interest that has
never been felt before in this impor
tant work of the department.
The Boys’ Fair school which has
been a big feature of the Southeast
ern fair blazed the way for this in
ternational school, which will wel
come boys from all nations which
are interested. The big prize to the
winners in this contest is a trip to
England to visit the Royal Cattle
show in London. Without doubt a
side trip to France will be arranged,
and it is possible that they may visit
Denmark, where they will get some
ideas about the intensive production
of dairy products of that wonderful
little country.
The departments of education,
woman’s work, including the fine-arts
and floriculture; library, patriotic
organizations, child welfare and Sun
day schools are again encouraged by
liberal premiums and under the able
management which has characterized
this department in the past, there
is assurance of greater accomplish
ments this year.
Every feature of club work which
the Southeastern Fair has in co
operation with the Georgia state col
lege Os agriculture, encouraged by
every means since its establishment,
will this year be marked by the
progress of the whole fair. The dis
tinction of being a winner in the
girls’ club work at the Southeastern
Fair is worth striving for and the
boys’ corn exhibit has no equal In
the nation so that it is Indeed an
honor to win the prize for the best
ten ears of corn. The annual girls’
canning club exhibit, mirrors the
great change which has taken place
in domestic farm home economy.
The annual saving through inde
pendence of the grocery shelf, has
not only provided needed healthful
food, but it has effected a saving
which is increasing annually to an
extent little dreamed of; the exhibit
this year will be better than ever,
and every county in Georgia ought
to take the opportunity to stimulate

ABBEVILLE, Ga., July 10.—The
Bank of Abbeville, after a 'careful
survey of the Georgia tobacco crop
estimates the/ probable yield at 12,-
000,000 pounds. Reports were re
ceived from national and state banks
in the tobacco section, as well as
from a number of merchants, ware
housemen, jobbers and farmers, all
reports from each county being com
pared and averages taken. Out of
nearly 200 reports, only four indi
cated a poor or inferior grade.
Indications are, the b&nk officials
say, that the farmers are taking
great interest in their tobacco. Many
experienced men from the Carolinas
and Virginia are being employed, and
special attention will.be given the
weed during the curing season. The
growers are unanimous in their ex

Thee ounty and single farm exhib

LIQUID SPRAY
FOR ARMY WORM,
EXPERT’S ADVICE
A liquid spray for fighting the in
quitous army worm and his pesti
ferous ally, the cornsilk worm, is
recommended to city gardeners by
William Deckner, The Journal’s ag
ricultural expert in charge of At
lanta’s co-operative public school
gardens, in lieu of the powder sug
gested by County Demonstration
Agent Brown as best adapted for use
by farmers.
The arrrfy worm, whose tactics
German frightfulness in leaving
a trail oi devastation, has not yet
opened an offensive against the
school gardens, Mr. Deckner says.
The cornsilk worm, however, is ac
tively in the field with young corn
as his objective and stunted stands
in many places mark his arrival.
This foe to garden success first
attacks the stalk and later bores
into the ripening ear with disastrous
results to the crop. The little tun
nels that often mar tomatoes are due
also to his inroads.
"While dusting the crops with
powdered arsenate of lead is unques
tionably the best way for farmers to
fight the pests, a city gardener can
usually use a liquid solution 'in a
sprinkling-pot with greater con
venience,” said Mr.'.Deckner, Sat
urday. "Three ounces of arsenate of
lead to a gallon of water is the right
proportion and is usually an efficient
defense.
“It should be sprayed on the
plants, and in the case of corn,
should be applied at the top of the
stalk. The poison does not kill on
contact. A cornstalk worm could
swim in it safely if he didn’t swal
low any of it. It is necessary for
the worm to get it in his system, and
by using the liquid, the liquod
spreads more easily and automatical
ly causes the worm to eat It.”
Dry weather has curtailed school
garden crops materially during the
past week or two and Mr. Deckner
was consequently jubilent at Satur
day afternoon’s drenching downpour,
It meant that planting of fall crops
could start this week, whereas if
no rain had fallen a postponement
would have been because
nothing would grow, he said. The
Journal’s agriculturalist will begin
immediately to plant collards, car
rots, beets, Irish potatoes, and more
beans, butter beans and corn, al
though he says it is a little late for
corn.
All the school gardens are in
splendid shape, Mr. Deckner reports,
and sales to neighborhood patrons
continues. Squash, cucumbers, beets,
cabbage, and in some instances,
beans, have been the principal prod
ucts offered recently.

Republicans Open
Tennessee Campaign
KNOXVILLE, TENN., July 10.—
Governor William L. Harding, of
lowa, spoke at an East Tennessee
Republican rally here this afternoon,
which leaders announced opened the
campaign in the south. He asserted
that the Democratic platform has
declared for the "ancient doctrine of
tariff for revenue only, ’ and th it
“the Republican party still maintains
the position that the tariff should
exist for protection.”
The Democratic party, he said, pro
poses to run the government from
.finances derived from ice cream cones
‘ang pop bottles. Discussing foreign
relations, he asserted that “the Re
publican party stands for America
first, last and all the time,” and
that “the Democratic party stands
for everything else except America.”
Cats Are Offered in
Anti-Rat Campaign
MONTGOMERY, July 10
Rembert C. Houser, special agent ot
the war department, offers ordinary
every-day cats for the extermination
of rats in the capital city of Ala
bama. The offer came after the
state board had started a rat-killing
campaign to prevent the spreading
of bubonic plague in Mobile to other
points. Citizens may get the cats bv
applying to the camp supply office,
where a large number of cats were
“left over” from the recent soldiers’
training camp.
SHORTAGE OF CARS
INSDUTHDESCRIBED
IS I SERIOUS ONE
WASHINGTON, July 10.—Railroad
car shortage was described as par
ticularly serious in the south by
witnesses who appeared at today’s
hearing of the interstate commerce
commission on the order requiring
railroads to give preference to coal
mines in the assignment of open
top cars.
Supporting the claims of southern
witnesses, representatives of more
than a score of steel manufacturers
informed the commission that a shut
down of the steel industry was immi
nent unless better car service was
afforded. Belief that aqy general
suspension of industry would be
averted, however, was expressed by
Daniel Willard, ehairman of the ad
visory committee of the Association
of railway executives.
Industries in Georgia were said by
C. F. Cotterill, of ‘Atlanta, repre
senting'the Georgia Manufacturers’
association, to be receiving not more
than 15 per cent of the required num
ber of cars. Mr. Cotterill further
declared that unless improved car
service was afforded soon, many
families throughout the south would
suffer through the suspension of
work. _ , „ .
While southern railroads, Mr. Cot
terill said, were better supplied with
cars than the northern carriers, the
excess of the southern roads had
been diverted to the north.
Assertion Challenged
The Louisville and Nashville rail
road, said Mr. Cotterill. had only one
half of its cars on its lines. Mr.
Willard challenged this assertion,
saying the Louisville and Nashville
had about 66 per cent of its cars in
its own custody. Mr. Willard added
that arrangements had been made to
increase the Louisville and Nashville
car supply.
Suggests Co-operation
Addressing the shippers, the chair
man declared the commission realiz
ed the “utter impossibility” of pleas
ing all of them, but he urged that
they follow the suggestion of Mr.
Willard to attempt solution of car
service through co-operation between
them and the railroad officials.
Through such eo-operatlon, Mr. Wil
lard had predicted that “half the
trouble” could be eliminated.
By shippers and railroads acting
through local car service committees
Mr. Willard expected it would not be
necessary to prevent all movement
of building materials and that mate
rials could be moved for highway
repairs, maintenance and construc
tion of essential connecting road
links. Such transportation, he anti
cipated, could be had on the return
of the open top equipment to the
mines. . ,
“TheVe has been no harmonizing
effort between the carriers and ship
pers to get the best out of the sit
uation.” declared Mr. Willard, adding
that the forthcoming wage award
was expected to bring improvement
in the transportation situation. With
labor difficulties ended. Mr. Willard
asserted the “roads will move as
much as in the past—l9l7, 1918 or
1919.”
Extension of the commission order
for thirty days beyond July 21, its
original expiration date, was favor
ed by Mr. Willard, while the steel
men at the hearing - did not commit
themselves but asked the order be so
interpreted as to permit them to re
ceive a part of the open top equip
ment.
Other witnesses in their testimony
pointed to the necessity of rushing
coal to’northern Michigan. Wiscon
sin, Minnesota, North and South Da
kota while lake transportation was
available.
Plans for the movement of coal to
this territory will be considered at
a meeting of coal operators her<-
Monday and Tuesday and bv the rail
way executives at New York Wed
nesday.
Steel Shutdown Feared z
A shutdown of steel mills is
threatened because of car shortage,
representatives of more than a
core of steel manufacturers today
informed the commission. Daniel I

CUPID’S ARROWS
HIT FORTY IN ONE
NEW YORK OFFICE
BY FAY STEVENSON
NEW YORK. —Just as Santa Claus
finds his way down narrow chimneys
and visits tall, forbidding tenements,
so Dan Cupid flutters about New
Yorfk’s skysetaps and makes him
self known in hustling, bustling of
fices. In fact this little god of love
has been working overtime in one
particular office building in the down
town section, and during one year
forty girls have succumbed to his ar
rows.
Last Saturday afternoon Miss Isa
bel Duthie, a pretty little typist for
the , London Guarantee & Accident
company at No. 55 John street, was
given a merry celebration and party
by her fellow workers in honor of
being the fortieth bride-to-be of that
office.
Forty brides in one year means
almost an average of one bride per
week, so I made my way to the John
street address wondering just what
thta edfice had about it which in
spired matrimony.
As I alighted from the elevator a
grafonola spinning out jazz met my
ears and I beheld a number of happy
young men and women dancing to the
future happiness of the fortieth
bride. Confetti, a large papier-mache
wedding bell, the usual display of
silver wedding presents and a bowl
of punch told the story at once.
Desks and typewriter stands had
been moved to one side, and I real
ized at a glance that romance no
longer confines itself to parlor set
tings, vine-screened verandas, steam
er decks, motor rides or shady dells.
Romance has learned to adopt itself
to the tap-tap of the typewriter, the
roll-ton desk, the swivel chair and on
Saturday afternoons it pushes all
these aside, starts up some jazz
and forgets it is in the'heart of the
qity.
Dancing with her fiance, George
Cregan, whom she will wed June 30
at the Sacred Heart Church, Staten
Island, I found the fortieth bride
to-be all dimples and laughter. But
whisper—her fiance is with the U. S.
NjtVy and NOT a member of the of
fice force. Nor have any of the
other thirty-nine brides of the office
married members of the office force.
“Which proves that young men and
women in business can have awfully
good times and not fall in love with
each other,” laughed Miss Duthie.
“We make this office like a second
home, dance here nearly every Sat-'
urday afternoon and have our friends
from other offices in with us.”
Is it any wonder the office boasts
of forty brides!
Wyiiard, chairman of the advisory
committee of the Association of
Railway executives, who also ap
peared before the commission, was
equally insistent, however, that any
general suspension of industry
would be averted, and that Improve
ment was possible in the steel
trade.
“The steel mills are 'blocked with
products, many closed and others
will be before July 20 unless some
relief can be had,” declared J. F.
Townsend, spokesman for the steel
men, who explained that 28,300 cars
would be required to move 1,500,-
000 tons of steel products, which
are piled up awaiting shipment.
Coal Order
Mr. Williard conceded that prac
tically all space available for stor
ing steel was in use, but predicted
that the mills “can be kept going'’
by the shippers and the local car
service committees co-operating in
the daily assignment of available
cars.
"I believe there will not be any
general shut down of industry,” de
clared Mr. Willard, in this connec
tion. "The situation, I believe, will
not get any worse, and I believe we
can make it better.”
Mr. Townsend and Mr. Willard
were among the half score witnesses
appearing at the closing Session of
the commission’s hearing on possi
ble modification of its order requir
ing preference to be given coal
mines, east of ' the Mississippi, in
■ the assignment of open top cars. No
indication of the commission’s prob
able action was given at adjournrhent.
Chairman Clark announcing that the
question would be taken under ad
visement.
TUESDAY, JULY 13. 1920.
KILLED WIFE AS
EASIEST WAY OUT,
SAYS WANDERER
CHICAGO, , July 10.—Carl Wan
derer, former army lieutenant, self
confessed slayer of two persons, one
of whom was his wife, a pretty choir
singer, and the other a man with
whom he had plotted to take her life,
today was ordered held without bail
on a charge of murder by a coroner’s
jury.
At the same time the ragged
stranger, whose body has been un
claimed at the county morgue since
the night of the crime, nearly three
weeks ago, was declared to be that
of Al Watson, former Canadian sol
dier, who was said to have told ac
quaintances he was the only son of
a millionaire turfman living in New
York.
The idenification was made by Mrs.
Catherine Vaners, of Chicago, who
said she met Watson in Folkestone,
Eng., while he was a patient at the
Manor House hospital. New York
dispatches said the police recalled
that last May an Alexander E. Wat
son had been reported missing by
his wife. The man later was report
ed to have been found in Paterson,
N. J., but the police were ignorant
of his whereabouts.
Wanderer today placed blame for
the tragedy on his familiarity with
firearms in the army, his roving tem
perament and his association with
his father’s butcher shop. »
Planned Deliberately
“I planned the whole thing in cold
blood, because I decided that was
the only way I could do it and get
away with it,” he said. “The thought
of killing a person was not so re
pugnant to me as it might be to most
persons because of my experience in
my father’s butcher shop. A man in
a butcher shop gets so closely ac
quainted with blood that he loses his
1 aversion to it.
“Then, in the army I had practiced
a great deal with firearms, and I
learned to love the army life above
everything else in the world.
“In addition to these things, my
name sets me forth correctly—l am
a Wanderer and a rover by nature.
I hate to be tied down. I -was not
intended for married life. With these
influences working in my veins the
step from discontent to what I did
was a short one. Os course, I am
sorry for what I did; any>sane man
would be, and I am sane, but that
doesn’t help matters now.
“I loved my wife in spite of what I
have done; I loved her too well to
desert her and leave her with mem
ories of a ruined romance to keep
her company during the rest of her
life ’ Murder Easiest Way Out
“I decided the easiest way out was
to kill her. Most men after doing
that would have been sleepless and
haunted by visions at night. I was
not. I slept like a top and didn t
have a single drdh.m that I can re
m’‘rmr sorry I had to kill the other
chap, but I was afraid he would
squeal. Killing him did not do any
good, for I did not have presence
of mind enough to remember that
those army automatics were num
bered.’*
The proceedings at the inquest were
brief only two witnesses testifying.
These werh a detective and a police
man. The latter told of going to
the scene of the crime the night of
the murders. The two pistols, ten
empty shells and five bullets which
were found in the hallway, where
the shooting occurred, were produced.
Wanderer probably will be taken
before the grand jury on Monday.
State’s Attorney Hoyne said he
would ask a speedy trial. Wanderer
did not repeat his confession to the
coroner’s jury, though he was present
at the Inquest. Instead the coroner
read the original typed confession
after Wanderer had said he had noth
ing to add.
Carl Johnson, brother-in-law of
Wanderer, was the only member of
the family present at the inquest.
Both kept their eyes averted from
the othei* and no sign of recogni
tion passed between them.
Wanderer was booked on two
charges - of murder late today after
he had been ordered held to the
grand jury by a coroner’s jury. He
will be assigned in a ploice court
Monday.
