MORE CORN PLANTED.
The Increased Acreage Will Make Up
for Meat Shor’age.
Macon, Ga—President fl U Lee of
the Farmers' Union a sorted that
there is more corn plain 1 in Georgia
this spring than has cv been put in
the ground in this si v a single
crop. He is happy a t promised
results. His campaig through the
spring was a eontinuou- iiurney from
one place to another, re he never
IpBt time in urging farmers to
get the grain crops in used.
"We are sure to g.iiu as much in
the corn crop as w< to lose in
meat-raising," he de< i "I know
there will be large uses in the
corn and other grains J is true that
the seasons now proi very little
advantages to the fain.or who has
conscientiously tried to take a heavy
oat crop.' Things have ; en dry all
over the state, and rain has fallen
so seldom during the p «;t few weeks
that the oat crops generally are sui
fering.
"As to meat, 1 am sm we are to
pass the pinch this year in this re¬
spect, Last year prices caused every
farmer that could sell to market his
hogs or fatten them so that this year
the prospect for home-re sed meat is
generally a poor one Tie.-re are very
few hogs to be fattened. The man
with business acumen, however, has
seen his folly, and now nogs are in
demand. More are being raised, and
next year will give us a greater sup¬
ply than we have heretofore had."

LATE NEWS NOTES.
General.
Former President Theodore Roose¬
velt has accepted an invitation to
make an address in Atlanta sometime
in October. He will speak under the
auspices of the Uncle Remus Memori¬
al association In a letter to the as¬
sociation from Paris Colonel Roose¬
velt says he will be accompanied
here by Mrs. Roosevelt and daugh¬
ter, Miss Ethel.
The police force of Indianapolis
has been ordered to enforce to the
letter the new ordinance providing
that no hat shall be tolerated with a
pin protruding more than half an Inch
beyond the brim unless the end be
protected.
An act of incredible brutality is re¬
ported from the Village of Hassen,
in Germany. A baker's wife, wishing
to free herself from the incumbrance
of her husband, who is somewhat
weak in intellect, drenched him with
petroleum, and with the assistance
of one of the workmen, shut him up
in one of the ovens, with the inten¬
tion of burning him to death. The
wretched man’s despairing screams
fortunately brought rescuers to his
help before the wonihn could com¬
plete her infamous scheme.
A needle that Lillian YValther, a
five-year-old girl of the Sandeval com*
inunity at Taylor, Texas, swallowed
two years ago, was recently extracted
by surgeons from her spinal column.
The needle gave the girl no pain un¬
til last week. She fell from the
porch at her home. Later sue com¬
plained of severe pains in her back
and it was thought she had fractur¬
ed her spinal column. Examination
showed the needle sticking in her
spine.
Jerry D. Smith, a Southern Express
messenger, was arrested in Jackson¬
ville, Fla., charged with the theft ot
diamonds valued at $4,000, while in
transit between New York and Jack¬
sonville, and subsequently made a full
confession, surrendering a greater
part of the jewelry to the detectives
making the arrest
An address in favor of the initia¬
tive and referendum by William J.
Bryan, which was to have been made
at Nebraska City, Neb was postpon¬
ed because the county commissioners
of Otee county refuses to allow Mr.
Bryan to speak on that subject in
the court house. Two or three com¬
missioners are democrats, but they
disagree with Mr. Bryan on the re¬
ferendum idea.
Washington,
Regardless of the verdict ot the
special committee of congress which
Is investigating the general land of¬
fice and forestry service, the expecta¬
tion of men in close touch with the
administration is that Secretary Bal¬
linger will retire from the cabinet
soon after the inquiry is concluded.
The court of claims rendered a de¬
cision, holding that a certain line ot
tax collections on legacies made as a
result of legislation enacted to carry
on the Spanlah-Amerlcan war should
be refunded. The decision means the
return to tax payers of about $5,000,
000 .
The house passed a bill providing
for appropriation ot $2 ,500 for the
erection of statues to General S. Dan¬
iel Stewart and James Screven at
Midway church, in Liberty county,
Georgia.
The report of the bureau of labor
upon the conditions at the Bethlehem
steel works of South Bethlehem, Fa,,
submitted to the senate says that
2,322 men worked twelve hours u
day for several days a week, a large
percentage of these laborers earning
only 12 1-2 cents an hour.
The rural delivery service and the
star route department are to be con¬
solidated and the combined service
is to be known as the division of ru¬
ral mails. The order for the change
was signed by Postmaster General
Hitchcock, and will take effect on
July 1. The change is the result of
a recent investigation which showed
that the rural delivery system was
costing about $28,000,000 more than
the revenues derived from It. Plans
were set on foot immediately to re¬
organize this service and place it on
a more businesslike basis. It is be¬
lieved that the change will have the
effect of cutting down the expense*
of operations by several millions of
dollars without any loss of efficiency.
Another strong effort is being marie
to bring about peace between the two
warring factions in Nicaraugua A
dispatch has been received at th»
state department from United States
Consul Moffett, at Bluefields, stating
that the Central American court of
justice at Cartago, Costa Rica, hail
unanimously passed a resolution
which had been sent to Dr. Madriz
at Managua, and General Sstrada at
Bluefields strongly urging that an
armistice for eight days be agreed to
with a view to an agreement through
the mediation of the Cartago court,
looking to the establishment of peace
in Nicaragua. Secretary Knox has in¬
dorsed the action of the court.
The king was always a great trav¬
eler and was nearly as well known
on the boulevards of Paris and in
the casinos of Biarritz and llomburg
as he was along Piccadilly. He al¬
ways exhibited a marked preference
for the society of Americans.
George Frederick Ernest Albert,
Prince of Wales, who now becomes
kiDg, is the second son of King Ed¬
ward and Queen Alexandra, and was
born June 3, 1865.
The new king Is less democratic
than his father and does not have
such an ardent love for sports, it
has been predicted, therefore, that af¬
ter his accession to the throne the
_
court gayety which was always a
feature of King Edward's reign, will
be less marked.
Before the American Climatological
association, Dr. R. G. Curtin of Phil¬
adelphia took issue with those who
contend that cancer is caused by eat¬
ing fish, patricularly trout. He urged
that statistics showed that cancer
was more common in centers of pop¬
ulation where not one person in fifty
ate trout, It was more common in
temperate regions, Black and dark
skinned people seemed somewhat im¬
mune. and it was more common
among the better fed. Dr. Curtin
said during hard times, when the
poor had to live on a scant amount
of food, cancer among them decreas

Says the St. .Louis Republic: Oil
promotes economy of room, absence
of smoke, reduction of the non-fight
lng force, ability almost instantly to
attain high speed efficiency and uni
formity of feed, The absence ot
smoke Is of inestimable import, a
both because it permits a war ship
to approach the enemy unheralded
by a black banner in disguise and be¬
cause lt helps a weaker vessel to
speed away. Of all nations ranking
among powers of the first rank this is
best equipped by nature to supply for
its fighting fleets oil in quantity un¬
limited and at minimum cost. From
the Alleghauies to the Gulf and west
ward to the Pacific coast there exist

ment already is enormous and whose
possibilities scarcely have been fath¬
omed.

Pure iron is only a laboratory pre

five per cent of impurities, and the
curious thing is that it owes its spe
