NO END DFB DEADLOCK SEEN ( ( Turk Envoys Present Maximum Proposal. Differing Far From Demands. i LoN'DirN, Dev. 28. The deadlock in , the Turko-Balkan peace conference re mains unbroken. After a session of an , hour and 4a minutes in St. James pal ace today the envoys adjourned until Monday without any progress having , been made. A dark outlook prevalle when lite delegates resumed their session after a four-day recess. Reehld Pasha, of the ottoman delegation, who presided at the meeting, submitted Turkey's maxi mum proposals to offset the maximum demands of the allies The margin of difference between the two notes was so great as to cause much doubt whether the deadlock would be broken soon. Allies Stand Firm. The allies are standing firm upon their contention tli.it Tuikrj shall not be allowed to retain more than a foot hold on Europe, whereas the ottoman plenipotentiaries ridicule this proposi tion, saying "that Turkey should not be deprived of territory site was valiant ly defending when tin armistlc. put an end to hostilities." Representatives oft! . allies se. . to feel assured that the powers will sup port them in their demands Hut while this view lends hope to tin Balkan envoys, they do not minimize the stiff ness of the struggh ahead. One of the Balkan envois is quoted as saving that "it may be three weeks before a compromise is i cached." So far as can be learned, the Ottoman en voj s had not reached an agi cement upon any point at issue up to the hour of tin- meeting al noon Imlay Austria Arising Again. Interest was divided hen between the pi|o' conference and the present attitude of the Austrian government. According to Vienna initios. the ten sion between Austria and Servin is again tightening ami Austria has ceased demobilizing. Austria is still maintain ing a big armed force on the Servian frontier and has gin n assurances to 'tic other powers that site will continue •<> keep an arm) there until guarantees are given by Senia that the \driatlc port of Duiazzo w ill be relinquished.

In a modest ami entirely non-.'pec- 1 taeular suit of way, E. Lee Worsham, i the state entomologist, is doing a great | f. - work for Georgia. Mr. Worsham. , besides being an expert bugologist —which is near- English for the other word—is a genuine Luther Burbank in his own peculiar way. ami moves niys teriously now and then his wonders to perform. The state ento mologist's latest achievement is ot great importance to Georgia, anil is : I suie to be far J reaching in eon- . st qttence. He has succeeded in devel • I oping a strain of cotton that will meet I the ra.pidly approaching boll weevil conditions by comparatively early ma turity and immunity from black root and tin wilt disease. This strain of cotton, developed suc [|cessfully after months of patient ex periment by Mr. Worsham, promises to be the most valuable stiain in the world. In undertaking to prepare Georgia for the coming of the boll weevil, sev - era! varieties of early maturing cotton i might have been advised, were it not , ; for the fact that practically every i known vatiety is subject to attacks of the wilt disease. In seeking to over- ( come this objection. M , Worsham un | dertook to cross long staple Egyptian i cotton with an early "Dixie," and the I experiment was a complete success. The engaging thing about the new , cotton, too, is that it may be grown j anywhere in the South, has a very long staple', and ought to sell around twenty cents pet pound. i The department has only < ultivated one acre of the new cotton this year, . and the seed for distribution will be limited. However, .Mr. Worsham has arranged to try it out in 25 south Geor- | gia counties next season, among the . I more progressive iarme: s. The Georgia legislature builded wiser . than it knew when it set up the state t department of entomology. It is esti . | mated conservatively that the depart 'ment is saving the farmers of the state ■ I j now from $25,000,000 to $30,000,000 each ' j year, and it will make an even liner . I record as time runs on. It has been i able to show the farmers of the state many ways- to destroy and eradicate | destructive insects, and no.w it has , | found one way. at least, to combat the boll weevil successfully. One most commendable thing about the department of entomology is the fact that it has been kept out of poll |tiis i’nder the wise and cot'- . s rvativc direction oi M Worsham it Alton Biiiiiiigni tiii'i'. itthielic young sou of Mr. anti Mrs. JI.

Dr. Rudici was, besides being a wise and able legislator, a physician of the old school, and possessed of all those arts of gentleness and refinement char acterizing that class of citizens. He generally was sent to the legislature w ithout opp isitfcm, whenever he could be preVai.cd upon to run, and on more than one occasion was the compro mis ■ candidate upon whom warring factions united in order to keep the peace of the community intact. He was in many ways Chattooga county's "grand old man," and his death, after many years of conspicu ous usefulness, will occasion much sor row throughout Georgia. Dr. Rudicil was the father-in-law of former Judge W. M. Henry, of the Rome circuit. gam< la« s of Geoigia glorify the old-time fishermen, content to sit upon the bank, at the right seasons of the year, and practice the noble art pisca torial in truly due and ancient Torm. outside of a few restrictions as to netting, keeping off prescribed terri tory. and retn* inhering the Sabbath day to keep il holy, there are few “don'ts" attaching to the fish laws. i'nder the present order of tilings, the fish liar, therefore, seems to have an advantage over the limit liar.
