;fhe county fair is the finest ever
opened here. Take our word for it--
this is a show worth attending.
Fort Bennings has been kind to the
people handling the fair here to per
mit a fine military band like they
have sent us to come to play at the
Jocal fair, It is a real attraction,
Crisp county has ginned up to Oc
fober 18th eleven thousand six hun
dred and twelve bales of cotton of
this season’s crop. That puts us out
mthe;%rpnnlng w:nh,,the figures (or:
Jast year. We are going to have tul.i
ly fifteen thousand bhales of cotton to{‘
our credit when the show is all ovcr.‘
It we could get something for it—!
it. » l
STILL THEY FIGHT US. '
The power company attorneys here
have reported to headquarters lh:\l,!
they are licked in Crisp county and
that the next move better bhe direct
ed to, defeat the Crisp county power
development over the state. So, ac
cordingly the work of defeating l::%l
has been shifted to the whole staw!
of Georgia more than likely with the
fdea that we have not sufficient mun-!
ey to keep ahead of their pmgrum‘
of misrepresentation before the 1)«)0-'
ple of Georgia. l
The first thing they did was to
say that Mr, John Pate was (‘lh\lll.‘
MAN OF THE COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONERS. "That isn't so by
any manner of means. John 8. Shep
pard ig chairman and is a strong ad
vocate of the Crisp county power de
velopment and for the bonds with
which to develop the power. Besides,l
the other two county commissioners,|
Dr. Loren Williams, and Captain J. A.
Sloan, are both for it and fighting
for it everywhere they can say a good
word or do a good turn for the cause,
Mr. Pate isn't chairman of the board
of county commissioners—never has
been,
The next false statement made was
that Mr. Pate represents the citizens
of Crisp county and the citizeng are
opposing the power development.
That isn't so. Mr. 'Pate represents
nobody but the power attorneys heve
and himself—that's all. Not all the
citizens of, Crisp county are for the
power development, but ninety per
‘é_e'gt of them are—and all the larger
property holders and tax payers are
for the power development, Mr, Pate
and the pnw'u} company officials are
responsible for the opposition which
has gone out over the state—and we
firmly believe that even Mr, Pate saw
none of that. We know he didn't!
write it and we know he didn't puy}
a cent of the costs of printing, ad- |
vertising, and postage. We turthex"
know that Stone and Webster's mon- |
ey went into that advertising. We
also know it is going into every Dbit
of the costs of the fight against us
over Georgia,
Stone and Webster own nearly all
the power used for @mmercial pur
poses in south Georgia. They own
that being distributed in Cordele and
Crisp county. They paid the bills fm'l
the opposition to the Crisp county
power development — and they will
pay all the other bills, They are
practically all the opposition— they
are all there ever will be. The reas
on for their opposition is that they
are carrying out of Cordele every
year nearly a hundred thousand dol
lars in cool profits on their invest.
ments here — nearly a cool hundred’
thousand dollars every twelve momhs_‘
Our opposition here and over the|
ptate will be Stone and Webster—
and the tight here will be made
through loeal attorneys who dare not
publish their names to any of the
stuff they are sending out, Stone
and Webster wil] not send their
names on anything they send out in
opposition to the Crigp county pow
er development, They have excell
ent reasons of their own—they do
not want the public to know they are
fighting the public development in
llhc interest of the public here in
Crisp county, They want to be in
position to dodge out of it when they
are confronted with that in legisla
tion and future measures taken at
the state capitol for progress in Geor.
gia.
The people of Crisp county ought
to understand what a fine chance
they have to grow-—grow rapidly and
in most substantial manner, This
’pnwcr supply will draw business of
4 large type. It will make wealth
for the whole county. And on its
:nwn earning power it will always pro
vide a fund for operating, for retir
ing its ‘'own bonds, and have left in
the public treasurp of the county a
handsome fund which may go to pay-‘
the public treasury of the county a
taxes of the people who own it. In
addition to all that—the most import
ant thing of all—in addition to that,
we will have an abundant power sup
ply at a cost which all industries
can afford to pay and grow. We
will control it. That forever fixes
our future destiny as a strong lmlus-‘
trial community. |

FIVE OF THE BEST POSSIBLE
HEALTH RULES |
The Progressie Farmer: i
A Forsyth County, N. C., woman
reader sends five of the very bvst‘
possible rules which have brought in-}
“creased health and happiiess to h(-r:
family. We wish every Progressive |
Farmer reader would adopt her
five wise policies as follows: ‘
«1, I made a special study of foods’
and to obtain the vitamines and min-‘
erals I needed I began ecach day to
drink @ quart of milk, eat vegetables
—Some of them raw and none of
them overcooked, because overcook
ing destroys the vitamines —and eat
fruit. T formed the habit of thor
ougly chewing my food and chewed
it slowly.
«9Another important habit to
which T attributed my good health is
that of drinking at least six glasses
of water a day, one before breakfast.
Thig gives my system an internal
bath, prevents constipation, and aids
the kidneys in throwing off the
wastes of the body, making kidney
diseases unlikely.
«3 1 do mot allow myself or any
member of my family to come to the
table with a gloomy face, and while
we eat, we chat and laugh pleasant~
ly. I have learned that this is onc]
of the surest preventives of too
rapid eating and an aid to digestion.
“4 Regularly every six months l 1
visit my dentist and once a year m.\';
Joctor and have a thorough physical
oxamination of myself and every
member of my family. |
«5 1 have trained every ember of
my family to see that once a day at
a regular hour the bowels are thor
oughly evacuated. This saves them
a multitude of ills. If any tendency
toward constipation is apparent, we
do not take medicine but increase
ihe amount of fruit, bulky foods andi
water.”
THIS MAN KNOWS
I'rom Elberton Star:
Charlie Brown down at Cordele is
making a desperate fight to have his
home people, as well as the voters
throughout the state, ratify the con
stitutional amendment which would
give Crisp county the authority to
sell bonds with which to build a big
rower dam across Flint river. Wo
know something of the handicaps
under which Cordele and Crisp coun-
t,:' get their eleetric powver, They
need and must have a cheaper power
rate if that section is to show any
substantial industrial growth, and‘
we sincerely hope that the people
of this and other sectiong of the
state, give them, with a favorable
vote on November 2, the right (o
work out this impprtant p'.,"oblcml
as seems best for themselves. |
FOR CHEAP POWER 1‘
John Greer in Douglas Efitcrprise:
Qur friends over in Crigp counly
are voting a million and a quarter
of dollars to build a big hydro-elec
tric dam to get cheap electricity for
the farmers to milk cows and Lulw‘
the place of other high price labor
on the farm, and to enable, and i«
enable the people of the county to
build cotton mills and spin the col
ton. There is more money milking
cows and spinning coiton than rais
ing cotton and letting New England
do the spinning and Minnesota do
the milking. In a few years Crisp
county can pave her roads, build her
schools and pay her taxes with that
dam, provided she can keep the pow
er companies from taking it away
from her.
Coffee County Voters should help
Crisp county secure her constitution
al aendment to build that hydro-elee
tric dam on the Flint river. If Cor
dele becomes an industrial center,
Coffee county farmers will be able
to sell much of their farm products
to the miil workers there, instead of
shipping it a thousand miles norti
and paying all the profit for trans
portation.

ONE can’t fecl well when there is
a retention of poisonous waste
in the blood. This is called a toxic
condition, and is apt to make one
tired, dull and languid. Other symp
toms are sometimes toxic backaches
and headaches. That the kidneys are
not functioning properly is often
shown by scanty or burning passage
of sccretions. Many pcople have
