ENTIRE FAMILY “SENT UP"
FROM LOWNDES COUNTY
VALDOSTA, Ga.—With the de
parture of Mrs. R. C. Smith for the
state farm to serve a year’s sentence,
an entire family living on the out
skirts of Valdosta for some time be
came wards of the state.
R. C. Smith went about two weeks
ago on a charge of having whisky
in his possession, his wife has now
followed and along with her went
their 13 year old boy, who goes to a
state reform school from the juven
ile court charged with having stolen
a bicycle. It is a rather unusual oc
currence that a whole family gets
under sentence at one time.
NOTICE
J. M. Cox wishes to announce to
his Monroe county friends that he is
still with Ellis Motor Co., Macon,
Ga., and is selling Chevrolet cars, the
best car on the market. When in the
city drop by, call for him, and trade
in your old car or buy a new one.
THE MONROE ADVERTISER
WAR BUDDIES MEET
AFTER EIGHT YEARS
THOMASVILLE, Ga., Aug. 7.—As
a young engineer employed in the
construction of the Perry Extension
of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad,
who was here for the day, entered
the dining room of a local hotel here,
he seemed at once attracted by the
appearance of Joe Bush, centerfield
er of the Thotnasville Rose Buds. Joe
in turn seemed equally struck by his
appearance and the two kept gazing
at each other as if trying to recall
where they had met before.
They happened to be placed at the
same table and soon the other diners
hearing a commotion turned to see
the two men embracing each other.
It developed that when Joe Bush
was in France during the World War,
he was left alone in No Man’s Land
during the St. Mihiel drive. He had
a piece of shrapnel through one .hand
and a bayonet wound in his shoul
der.
His comrades had all gone back to
the trenches and a barrage was swept
over that territory. He had given
himself up for lost when a young
soldier came along and seeing Bush’s
plight, he picked him up and carried
him on his back behind the lines to
safety. That young soldier was the
young engineer of whom Bush had
lost sight for a long time.

NEEDLE IN BODY TWENTY
YEARS WORKS IT WAY FROM
MAN’S ARM TO HIS TOE
SPARTA, Ga.—John Cheely, well
known farmer of this county, has
just returned from a stay in an Au
gusta hospital, where he has been
under treatment.
While there he experienced paip
in one of the toes of his right foot
and called his physician’s attention
to it. Upon examination he found
that the toe contained a hypodermic
needle which was embedded in the
skin. The needle was cut out and
Mr. Cheely recalled that a physician
over 20 years ago had broken the
needle off in his arm while giving
him a “shot” of morphine.
The needle had worked its way
through the entire length of his body
and had never been felt during the
20 years until it reached his toe. Ac
cording to Cheely, the needle was
broken off in his left arm, so the
needle crossed his body in making
the trip down.
EXPERT TELLS HOW
_ TO GROW TURNIPS
Choice turnips for autumn and
winter use. Want ’em? August is
a good i^onth for sowing turnip seed,
according to Martin V. Calvin, spe
cialist in agriculture and economics.
Mr. Calvin says that a well drained
deep mellow soil is best for turnips
and that seed should be worked into
a seed-bed with a plow and a har
row.
He specifies the kind and quantity
of fertilizer to be used as follows:
A mixture of 1,000 pounds 16 per
cent acid phosphate, 500 pounds of
nitrate of soda, and 400 pounds of
muriate of potash. To round out a
ton, add 100 pounds of filler, though
this is not necessary.
It should be applied, Mr. Calvin
says, in quantities of 500 pounds to
an acre, in drills 20 inches apart.
“Sow two pounds of seed to an
acre to furnish protection against a
fly which attacks and destroys thou
sands of young plants,” said Mr. Cal
vin. “When it is in the rough leaf,
thin to a stand, four to six inches
apart in drill. At that stage it is im
mune to the fly. #As soon as the
young plants are up begin to dust
them with land plaster frequently.
This protects them against the fly.
Keep the soil loose, three inches deep
between the rows.”
Among the varieties recommended
by Mr. Calvin for planting are red
or white strap-leaf and red top, white
globe and yellow globe.
