A U lEflRSI GERMAN Many College Girls Flock to the Newest Course REEVES ESN BE ‘Dry’ Calculus Gives Way to Culinary Study RAISED TO FEED ENTIRE STATE Peter F. Bahnsen Says Sections Free of Cattle Tick Are Thriv ing—Newton County Cited. LEIPZIG EMIT Special Edition Published in Washington Urging U. S. to Participate. MAY AID BIG ’FRISCO FAIR Appropriation Likely To Be Recip rocated by Germans at the Exposition. NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—The New York German Journal, which pub- shed a special edition in Berlin to interest Germans in tile forthcoming .San Francisco Exposition, to-morrow " ill publish a special Washington edi tion to interest the American Gov ernment and leading publishers and advertisers in the United States in the International Exposition of Graphic Arts, which will be held at Leipzig next year. The special edi tion includes a section printed in both English and German, containing il lustrations of the city of Leipzig, the exposition grounds and characteristic exhibits. Leaders Indorse Move. The German Journal already has secured Ihe indorsement of. Speaker i'lark. Leader Underwood, prominent Senators and Congressmen, and Rep resentative publishers and advertis ing men, urging an American exhibit under the Government auspices. While Germany discovered the art of printing, America has perfected the urt of making the public think by editorials, and merchants how to sell by advertising. The Hearst papers and magazines have volunteered a large exhibit, and advices received in New York to-day indicate that the great bureau of printing at Washington will have an , 'tractive exhibit at Leipzig. May Be Reciprocated. The question of an appropriation of 5.10,000 by the American Government to house the American exhibits is now before President Wilson, and it is confidently expected that the Govern ment will officially recognize the call from Leipzig, which, if done prompt ly. will possibly be reciprocated by an educational exhibit at San Francisco.

Pierce’s 0 Popular- Priced Practical Presents According ot Dr. Peter F. Bali sen, State Veterinarian, in charge of tick eradication work for the State De partment of Agriculture, the interest in raising high-grade beef stock for the market is increasing steadily in those counties which are free from cattle tick. “Newton Countv was released from the cattle tick quarantine in Septem ber of this year,” said Dr. Bahson, d“an immediately after the ban was lifted the live stock owners in that county bought a carload of registered Hereford cattle for breeding purposes. These will be distributed and soon fine beeves will be shipped into the markets from that county, command ing top prices. “With high-grade beef stock being brought into Georgia for breeding purposes and with Georgia producing annually thousands of tons of cot ton seed meal and hulls, accepted as the most fattening and least expen sive form of cattle feed, there is no reason why Georgia should not soon produce more beef than this State can use.” 5 Wives in 5 Cities Charged Up to Him CLEVELAND, Dec. 20.—Caught V/ a decoy message, a man, said to be David R.
