Game Plentiful In Georgia
Atlanta.—With an unprecedented
Increase in game throughout the state,
as reported by the county game war
dens to the state game warden, S. J.
Slate, hunters may expect this fall
to enjoy greater sport than ever be
fore in the history of Georgia, accord
ing to a statement from Mr. Slate.
The season opens November 20 and
on that day the woods and the game
will be thrown open to all the peo
ple of the state. As the time is short
until the opening of the season, Mr.
Slate calls the attenion of all hunters
to the fact that licenses purchased last
year are out of date and new licenses
must be obtained for this season. The
department also announces that the
dove season expires on December 31

and private citizens. The gathering
was roundly representative^of the en

New Laws Before M. E. Conference
Atlanta.—The North Georgia Confer
ence is holding its fifty-second ses
sion at Wesley Memorial church, No
vember 13-18, and is of unusual inter
est to the people of Georgia and es
pecially to Methodism. Besides meet
ing at a critical time, it will by its
action give an interpretation of some
new laws passed by the last general
conference, the lawmaking body of
Methodism. One of these laws, in
which keen interest centers, is wheth
er the bishops will return any pas
tors for more than four years to the
same pastorate. Up until this con
ference the bishops had no choice, for
the law of the church limited the pas
torate to four years. But the last
general conference made a law provid
ing for the return of a pastor indefi
nitely, provided the quarterly confer
ence of the pastor’s own charge ask
ed for his return and a majority of
the presiding elders concurred.
will co-operate with them both in the
purchase of licenses and in the en
forcement of all the laws necessary
for the preservation of game.”
Clerical Help Bill Valid, Says Walker
Atlanta.—That there is nothing in
a mere number when the wrong num
ber is followed by the right wording
is shown by a statement of Attorney-
General Clifford Walker in regard to
the error in a figure that was made
by Joe Hill Hall, Bibb county repre
sentative in the state legislature, in
writing the constitutional amendment
providing for an increase in the year
ly appropriation for the clerical force
of the governor’s office. There has
been, much speculation in the capitol
as to whether the governor would re
ceive ten thousand dollars in 1919 to
be used in maintaining a cleric;;! force,
or $6,000, the amount that he received
in 191S; and this speculation was
brought to a sudden close when At
torney General Walker stated that the
bill is valid, even if the number of the
article under which the hill was re
cently ratified by the people of the
state in the general election is not
in the right number.
Grinding Sugar Cane Begins
Thomasville.—The sugar cane crop
of south Georgia is being ground now,
and while the acreage is smaller than
that pf last year the cane is well de
veloped, as a rule, and the yield of
syrup very good. Cairo reported five
hundred barrels received there and
also reported the syrup of very fi«e
quality. One car load shipment has
been made from there by F. A. Rich
ter. All of the seed cane has been
banked, which is unusually early, but
the growers didn’t care to run the
risks of having it injured by being
left out until frost damaged it, as was
the case last year. The price of syrup
had dropped a few cents, being 92 in
stead of 94 cents a gallon by the bar
rel.
Stamping Out Hog Cholera
Waycross.—What at one time seem
ed to be an outbreak of hog cholera
in the Waycross district that would
prove very disastrous, has been prac
tically stamped out by the timely
work of the county agent, L. C. Wal
ker, who had assisting him Doctor
Hyde, who is connected with the state
veterinarian department under the di
rection of Doctor Bahnsen.

Big Sweet Potato Yield
Waycross.—At a meeting of the
board of directors of the Farmers’ Co
operative Canning company, held at
the chamber of commerce, four farm
ers who are members of the board
were present and made reports on the
sweet potato prospects that indicate
the largest- yield that this section has
ever produced. There are farmers in
this section who will produce 300
bushels per acre and many of them
whose potatoes will average. 200 bush
els to the acre. It is estimated that
there will be more than one hundred
thousand bushels of sweet potatoes in

Fulton Paving Work To Cost $3,000,000
Atlanta.—An estimate has been
made on the new program for 1919 in
the roadbuilding and paving work by
the public works committee of Ful-
on county. The seventeen road jobs
on which they will ask government pri
ority orders alone will cost about $2,-
500,000. In these jobs there are 5314
miles of paving, or about 843,900
square yards, Adding the cost of the
rest of the work outlined on the pro
gram, the entire expenditure will
amount to over three million dollars,
that is, if done by contract. For this
work the county commission will make
a request of the government for 250
tons of asphalt.
WILSON ANNOUNCES TERMS
Evacation, Reparation And Restitution
Are Keynotes Of The
Armistice
Washington.—Signing of the armis
tice with Germany was proclaimed by
President Wilson, who also announced
its terms at a joint session of con
gress.
Just before he went to the capitol
the president in a proclamation ad
dressed to his fellow-countrymen, said:
“The armistice was signed this
morning. Everything for which the
United States fought has been accom
plished; it will now be our fortunate
duty to assist by example, by sober,
friendly counsel and by material aid
in the establishment of just democra
cy throughout the world.”
Here are the principal things Ger
many must do, or, powerless before
the victorious allied armies, will have
done for her:
Immediate evacuation of Alsace-Lor
raine, Belgium, Luxemburg, Russia and
Roumania, without further destruction
or harm to inhabitants.
Then occupation by American and
allied troops of all the countries on the
west bank of the Rhine.
Then, further, creation of a neu
tral zone in a strip of territory on
the east bank of the Rhine, thirty
kilometers (about twenty miles) wide,
extending from Holand half way down
to the Swiss border, and twenty kilo
meters wide for the remainder.
Meanwhile, as a guaranty of good
faith, the occupation by American
and allied troops of Mayence, Coblenz
and Cologne, the principal crossings of
the Rhine, with a thirty-kilometer ra
dius about the bx-idgeheads.
On the eastern front, all German
troops are to be withdrawn from ter
ritory which, before the war, belonged
to Russia, Roumania or Turkey.
Then the German machine must dis
arm. The principal portions of its
navy must be handed over; arms, mu-

ZIRON Did This Kentucky Gentleman More
Good Than Any Other Medicine.
"Eight years ago I was down with '
rheumatism,” writes M. J. Hutcherson,
of Tomkinsville, Ky. “I was helpless
for three months, unable to even feed
myself. Doctors doctored me and I got
up, but have had bad health ever since,
with soreness and weakness across my
hack and in my arms and legs. I final
ly took Ziron, and it has done me
more good than any medicine I have
ever taken, and I intend to take more
of it, for it is the best medicine 1 ever
used. I have found it just what it is
recommended to be, and I am ready to
tell other suffering people that Ziron
helped me, and anxious to speak a
word of praise for it.”
Ziron acts on the blood and has been
found of great value in Rheumatism,
Indigestion, Anemia and General
Weakness. Ziron puts iron into the
blood, and iron is needed by your sys
tem to make you strong and healthy.

As a' step to restoring the map

Mrs. Burns’ Letter.
Here is a letter othat is certain t
prove of interest to people in this
vicinity, as cases of this sort occur in
almost every neighorhood, and people
should know what to do in like cir
cumstances:
Savannah, Mo., Oct. 12,1916.
"I used a bottle of Chamberlain’s
Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy about
line years ago and it cure me of flux
(dysentery) I had another attack of
the same complaint some three o
four yeai-s ago and a few doses of thi
remedy cured me. I have recom-
n.ended Chamberlain’s Colic and Diar
rhoea Remedy to dozens of people
since 1 first used it.”
Royse City, Tex.—Mrs. Mary Kil-
man, of this place, says; "After the
birth of my little girl...my side com
menced to hurt me. I had to go back
to bed. We called the doctor. He
treated me...but I got no better. I
got worse and worse until the misery
was unbearable.. .1 was In bed for
three months and suffered such agony
that I was just drawn up in a knot...
I told my husband if he would get
me a bottle of Cardui I would try It...
I commenced taking it, however, that
evening I called my family about
me... for I knew I could not last
many days unless I had a change for
the better. That was six years ago
and I am still here and am a well,
strong woman, and I owe my life to
Cardui. I had only taken half tha
bottle when I began to fed better.
The misery in my side got less... 1
continued right on taking the Cardui
xintll I had taken three bottles and 1
did not need any more for I was well
and never felt better in my life... I
have never had any trouble from that
day to this.”
Do you suffer from headache, back
ache, pain3 in sides, or other discom
forts, each month? Or do you feel
weak, nervous and fagged-out? If so,
give Cardui, the woman’s tonic, m
trial. J. 71
