VOLUME XII FARMERS’ OPPORTUNITY Southern Planters Should Take Advantage of High Food Prices. SOME 11 FIGURES Macon Telegraph Shows How It Would be Ad¬ vantageous To Plant Less Cotton and More Grain. Macon, Ga—The stock of money in this country today is approximately $3,180,000,000. 12,340,000,000. Ten years ago it was This is a gain of $790,000,000, or approximately 30 per per cent. Autlioritive statistics show that the 1909 wheat crop was 8.3 busheles per capita, against 8.63 bushels per capi¬ ta ten years ago; the corn crop dropped from 34.-9 to 30.9 bushels per eppita; the oats crop from 12.4 to 11.1 bushels per capita; the hay crop from 1 ton to 3-4 of a ton per capita; and the number of food animals, swine, cattle and sheep, fell from 2.5 to 1.9 per capita. In the matter-of meats the govern¬ ment returns issued on the 25th of January sivlne show, under the head of (hogs) that the total supplies in 1900, of 54,000,000 fell to 47,000, 000 in 1910, a decrease of nearly 15 per cent. Other cattle, in 1909, 49, 000,000, fell to 47,000,000 in 1910. The number of cattle killed under the inspection Taw in the United States in 19u7 was 7,621,717, in 1909 it had fallen to 7,325,337;- during the s#me period there was an increase in the number of calves killed from 1,763,574 to 2,046,713. The receipts of hogs at the markets fell 13.8 per cent from ISOS to 1909, In the matter of the production or fruits, the leader and standard (be cduse it keeps longer) apples, in the United States, have fallen from 68, 000,000 barrels in 1S66 to 21,000,0u> barrels m 1909! Here is money, per dollar, decreas ing in its purchasing power because of a 30 per cent increase in volume, Here is an increasing deficit in the field food crops per capita. Here is a marked decrease in hogs and cat & pies) BK-JKTJ! of approximately .v’sr,, 70 1 ; per cent, On the top of all this is an aver age tariff of 60 per cent on all for eign foodstuffs As result of all these things—the increased qfeased supply supply of of all money, food the de stuffs, and toe tariff—the prices of beef, pork abd its by-products, mutton, chickens, eggs, butter and milk, and all oilier Mod products —taken on an average L-nave never been as high as now, barring of course the war prices of the ’60’s. Is not this the southern farmer’s golden opportunity? The Telegraph has shown in previ pus articles that in 1860, when the o, ulation in Georgia wrns 1,057,286, . re were in this state 2,036,110 hogs. i,700,00 In 19<>7, with a population of 0 there were only 1,690,000 than bogs. With the population more doubled, the number of hogs ha- boon reduced nearly one-half! The Telegraph has shown that, in I860, there were 299,688 milch cows. : Iq 1907—308,000—an increase only of 8,312. That in I860, there were oven and other cattle, 706,194. In i 1907, 680,000—-decrease of 26,194! That in 1860, there were 512,618 sleep. In 1907, 269,000—a decrease 'Of 243,618! These figures are surprising, and yet they are based on actual statis¬ tical returns. The Telegraph has shown that in ilS90, when Georgia’s population was 1,837,353, Georgia’s farmers owned 1,527,008 swim In 1907, when the population had increased to 2,700,000, the swine owned by Georgia farmers decreased to 1,599,000—a loss of 28, , 00s. That In 1890, the sheep owned by Georgia farmers numbered 41t,8i0 IP 1907 they had decreased to 269,001; —a loss approximately of one-half! That in 1890, Georgia owned 354,611 milch cows. In 1907 the number fell to 308,000—a 1< of 46,6X8. All of these flgun are amazing but they are collected from the most reliable sources They call to the farmer with irre stible eloquence and fort They try aloud to them to plant less cotton nd more grain; to rail more cattle and hogs—not as a patriotic thing, but as a profit-mak¬ ing business. It is the farmer’s op¬ portunity. His day has come if he is wise enough to read the signs of the times and take advantage of it. Food is the first and the last of the natural man. All men must eat Everything else is secondary. We can go naked and live In the woods al> the heathens do, but we must eat. It takes a pound of cotton to buy a pound of meat. A pound of meat can be raised more cheaply than a pound of cotton, A farmer can eat his meat but he cannot eat his eot ton. has fas Th* money supply grown farm ter than the food supply The production for the last four years have been low in comparison with the Increase in other forms of value. Manufacturing enterprises, manufac¬ tured materials, stock and bond cor pOrations have more than tripled in the last ten years. The farmers have not kept pace.—Macon Tele graph.

General. The thief who stole $173,000 from the Chicago subtreasury February IS, 1907, Is now immune from criminal prosecution, the statute of limita¬ tions having expired. The only re¬ course of the government now is to positively locate the thief and in¬ stitute civil action to recover the money. Secret service men continue to run down every clew. The case, which long ago came to be known as the “Chicago subtreasury case, is one of the most baffling with which the United States government has had to contend. “Tiie sloppiness of women is re¬ sponsible for most of the divorce cases,” said the Rev. Joachim, during a lecture in Pittsburg, Pa., Catholic church. Before marriage many of them are neat and tidy at all times, but after the wedding ceremony they are careful about their looks only on the streets. Many homes are wreck¬ ed because of the nagging and fault¬ finding by both man and wife and a disposition on the part of both not to bear with each other’s failings.” The toy pistol, the torpedo crack¬ er and other “instruments of car i nage” will he in little demand next | Fourth of July, jf the intentions of the promoters of a safe and sane cel¬ ebration of Independence day are carried out. Plans for this year's cel¬ ebration in Chicago were announced by the Chicago Sane Fourth associa¬ tion. The plans are for a house fes¬ tival to be participated in by persons of all nations who have made this their home. The American Geographical society at a meeting in New York presented a gold medal to Colonel Charles Chaille-Long for his work in ascer taining the source of the Nile thtrty j j six years ago. Exactly what he did was ( 0 connect the discoveries made , 1 by two British explorers, j Washington. j The officers comprising the joint j ! arwy ant j !lav y board have gone to „ ' . determine , , , ... the site .. for . ow¬ : * fortifications, the paity will ) lla probably return to Washington about April 1.

The hills all hear tne same number, 413,601 B. Imports of the principal articles of merchandise into the United States during the seven months of the new tariff bill ending with January, 1910, aggregated in value, $891,800,000, as compared with $697,500,000 for the corresponding period of the previous year, an increase of $193,SOO,OO0, ac¬ cording to official reports of tho bu ! reau of statistics of the department of commerce and labor. “A hen is a bird,” but Its eggs are dutiable at 5 cents per dozen as the product not of a bird, but of a hen. This is the decision of the United States treasury department. The con¬ tention was laid before the depart¬ ment that hens' eggs should be ad¬ mitted as birds’ eggs, which arc duty free. 'The department ruled that they could claim the sprightly title of “bird,” but that under a clause of the Payne tariff law specifically levy, ing a duty on hens’ eggs It will con¬ tinue to cost nearly half a cent a piece to import the product of this particular kind of bird. The senate committee on military affairs has favorably reported Sena¬ tor Bankhead's bill continuing In force until December 31 the act pro¬ viding for the marking of the graves of the Confederatee who 'died in northern prisons. The work has been in progress for three years and Commissioner Oates, who has charge of it, believes it can be finished by the end of the year. Members of the senate are wondering whether Sen¬ ator Hyburn of Idaho, who was Sb effectually squelched on the Bank head bill authorizing the loan of tents to the Confederate reunion, will oppose this measure. Should ho do so It is expected that he will again be found voting alone. Counterfeit 25-eent pieces, so skill¬ fully made as to defy detection by anyone not an expert, are being cir¬ culated in Washington. Despite the efforts of a picked band of secret service men, headed by Chief Wilkie in person, the circulation of the mon ey continues. Not a trace has been found of the gang. According to those who have handled the counterfeit money the coiuB well nigh defy de tetcion. They have the ring of mint¬ ed money. Hence the work of the secret service in locating the gang is exceedingly difficult. It is believ¬ ed that the gang is doing business in other cities so ft would be well to be on the lookout for new quar¬ ters. Assistant Secretary of the Treas¬ ury Norton has recommended to con¬ gress the dicontinuance of the prac¬ tice of the government of paying for the transportation of the fractional silver and minor coins distributed throughout the country. He says that if this practice is stopped on June 30 next it will save the govern¬ ment $100,000 for shipment expense, besides reducing clerical work in the subtreasuries. Senator Bankhead offered an amendment intended to be proposed to the postoffice appropriation bill, dividing rural delivery carriers into ten classes running from those who have twenty-four-mile routes to re¬ ceive $990 per annum to those who have six miles at $435 per annum. A New Orleans orchestra figured at a hearing before the house com¬ mittee on immigration, in connection with the Hays bill for the regulation of immigration. Kepresentative Kus termann (republican) of Wisconsin, pleaded for tha free admission ot foreign musicians to “protect us from some of the discords of our Ameri can bands.” He mentioned particu iariy the Italians and the Mexicans. Arthur Holder, representing the mu¬ sicians’ organization, protested against the importation of foreign bands and orchestras who work cheaper than the local musicians. Major Charles E. Woodruff of the army medical corps, has taken sharp issue with some college authorities who think the regular army soldier is overfed. Some years ago a squad of soldiers was fed on a greatly re¬ duced diet under the supervision of a college professor, to demons'rate his point that people in general could live on much less food than they con¬ sumed Apparently a satisfactory ex¬ periment was made. Major Woodruff wants even more food for the army, declaring that the United States army is behind European armies in that matter, and favors an allowance of 50 cents per month for each sol¬ dier to buy extra food.

MANY PROPOSED CHANGES The President Says That Under Present Con¬ ditions the Promotion ol Officers of Lower Grades Is Stagnated. Washington, D. C.—Young blood in the command of the navy was tin 1 keynote of a special message which President Taft sent to congress, urg¬ ing legislation for improving the per sonr.el of the lighting force and ti remedy what the president termed “an abnormal condition, the result ol past legislation.” Under conditions now existing the president declared the promotion of officers of the lower grades was stagnated lo the great detriment 01 ’lie service and the country, and be¬ cause nearly every officer who re¬ tained his health was allowed to pass through the various grades and be retired as rear admiral, the greater number of commanding offlvers had had inadequate experience. Some of the most important cluing es which the president recotnmendea were. To create higher ranking flag oft cers. Tiie size of the fleet now de¬ mands two grades above rear admir al. In tho Atlantic fleet, there should be an admiral in command, a vice ad miral for the second sqnadrom and rear admirals for each of the other two divisions. The personnel of officers and men should be based on tho tonnage of effective ships and increases or de creases of ships would increase or de crease the personnel iii a fixed pro¬ portion. Provisions should be made against sudden fluctuations in the personnel, however. hundred With one million two thousand tons of ships as now author¬ ized, the ultimate personnel would reach three thousand line officers and midshipmen and sixty thousand en¬ listed men. The officers as now would be drawn from the naval acad emy with additions from the ranks. A reorganization of the retirement scheme would fix the rate of pay of retired officers on their time of ser¬ vice. The president believes that, too many officers reach tie rank of st nior rear admirals and retire without adequate returns to the government A sliding scale of retirement pay ac¬ cording to the years of service would be arranged. During the next eleven years, if the proposed measure becomes a law, there will be about one hundred and thirty-eight retirements from ordi¬ nary causes against three Hundred and four during the last eleven years, with a cost of one-fourth of the lat ter. In urging the need of the proposed legislation that the younger officers may be eligible for promotion and be come qualified to command the fleet and squadron, the president pointed to the fact that under the present ar¬ rangement one hundred and sixty ol fleers would enter the junior lieuten¬ ant’s grade each year, and that only forty a year would be promoted out of it. “I am strongly of the opinion that the future of our navy will be seri¬ ously compromised unless the ages oi our senior officers are materiaaly re¬ duced and opportunity given for ex¬ perience and training for battleship and fleet commands,” the president said. Deadly Toll Taken by Water. New Yerk City,—The loss of life by drowning among summer bathers of New Y’ork, New Jersey and Penn¬ sylvania amounted in 1909 to 1,650 deaths, according to figures made public here by officers of the United States Life Saving Corps. New York is shown to have paid the heaviest toll, with a total of 836 lives lost, of which 284 were children. Will Appeal World Case. Washington, D. C.—As a result of the cabinet meeting, Attorney Gene¬ ral Wickersham telegraphed to Dis¬ trict Attorney Wise, at New York, to note an appeal from the decision of Judge Hough dismissing for want of jurisdiction the indictment of the Press Publishing Company (the New York World) on the charge of libel in connection with the Panama canal cases.

New York City__Six great packing companies and twenty-one packers, several of them multi-millionaires, so¬ cially and industrially prominent, were indicted by a grand jury in Hudson county, Now Jersey, charged with conspiracy in limiting the sup¬ ply of moat and poultry. The indictment is drawn up under the iaw of New Jersey, which pro¬ vides, upon conviction, a maximum penalty of three years in the peni¬ tentiary, or a $1,000 fine, or both. The offense is extraditable, which means that practically the meat bar¬ ons of tills country must cither suc¬ cessfully escape extradition or come to Jersey Oitl for trial. Pierro Garven, the public prosecu¬ tor of Hudson county, announces ha will forthwith notify tlio defendants of tiie indictment and will he ready to force extradition in every case None, he says, will bo spared. The defendants ns named are as follows: Corporations: The National Pack¬ ing Company, Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Morris & Co., Hammond Pack¬ ing Company, G. H. Hammond & Co. Individuals: J. Ogden Armour, A. Watson Armour, Louis F. Swift, Ed¬ ward F. Swift, Charles H. Swift, Ed¬ ward Morris, Ira N. Morris, Arthur Meeker, Edward Tilden, L. A. Carton, Thomas E. Wilson, Thomas J. Con¬ ners, F. A. Fowler, L. H. Heyman, Janies E. Bathgate, Jr., George J. Edwards, Frederick B. Cooper, I). E. Hartwell, Henry B. Darlington, A. A. Fuller, Lemuel C. Patterson. Tiie indictment, which bristles in its arraignment of the men named, also refers to "divers others” as be¬ ing responsible. Thoso latter, how¬ ever, are not specified. The foregoing list of names, it will bo seen, represents the very back¬ bone of the great packing Industry, containing, as it does, two Armours, three Swifts and two Morrises, all for the most part residents of Chicago, together with less important figures in tho packing world, Their Indict ment brings to a climax the first con¬ certed action in the east to fix re spOBsibility for the prevailing abnor mally high prices of commodities. The indictment states that mere driblets of the supply were put on the market at stated intervals, small quantities agreed upon by the defend ants, thus to curtail and restrict the supply for the purpose of fictitiously, arbitrarily and unlawfully increasing prices to the public.” No attempt is made to recite the loss alleged to have been sustained by the public by this alleged crea¬ tion of artificial prices, but ware houses are held specifically to blame. By this means, it is charged, the de fendants were successful in keeping off the markets large quantities of meat and poultry which, if put upon the markets, t ’ould have been suffi¬ cient to meet reasonable demand. TO FIGHT PEACH DISEASES. Government Experts to Be Stationed at Barnesvifle, Ga. Barneaville, Ga.—Large peach grow¬ ers of this city have induced the bu¬ reau of plant industry and entomol¬ ogy at Washington to establish here an experimental and demonstration station for the purpose of showing the fruit growers how to control the two deadly enemies of the peach in¬ dustry, namely, curcullo and brown rot. For some time they have corre¬ sponded with the authorities at Wash¬ ington and succeeded in getting the department to send representatives here to look into the situation. Dur¬ ing the coming season each of these departments will have a representa¬ tive in the peach belt of this vicinity. A building rented by the govern¬ ment and the necessary apparatus will be installed at once. Mr. W. M. Scott of the bureau of plant industry and Mr. A L. Qualntance of the bu¬ reau of entomology will be In charge of the station. No Arbitration to Stop Strike. Philadelphia, Pa.—In eplte of the constantly increasing demands by re¬ ligious bodies and others that arbitra¬ tion be resorted to, to settle the strike against the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company, officials of that company declared that no proposi¬ tion looking toward arbitration in any form is being considered by the board of directors.
