DOUBLED IN SIZE
Combined Newspaper In
creased to Fourteen Pages
■'and an Appreciable Amount
of Advertisement.
New York, Sept. 25.—Despite the
fact that New York newspaper pub
lishers refused to take hack their
striking pressmen unless full terms
of an agreement signed with the In
ternational Printing Pressmen and
Assistants Union were met, the com
bined morning newspapers issued
since the strike began a week ago,
were, doubled in size today.
Each paper had 14 pages and for
the first time since the walkout dis
played advertising appeared to an
extent. Editorials, how
ever, still were absent.
The offer of the pressmen to re
turn to work was conditional. Fore
men visited the publishers it was
stated and said they would bring
their crews back under the provision
of the agreement with the Interna
tional, providing they would not be
compelled to recognize George Berry,
of the organization. They also said
they would not recognize David Si-
I mons, head of Local Web Pressmen s
Union No. 25 which had its charter
revoked by Mr. Berry. The publish
ers however refused, tellirj the men
they must recognize the internation
al union and obtain cards from it.

Judge Hardeman Suggests
Two Fields of Work For
Kiwanis Ladies Night
Great Success.
Judge R. N. Hardeman was the
principal speaker at the Kiwanis
Club Tuesday night. "Sir. R. S. Farm
er, who had charge of the ingenious
and splendidly developed program,
introduced this distinguished speaker
• and suggested that the topic be “The
Heritage of Louisville.” After a
few well told, witty tales, Judge
Htrdeman quoted from White’s
Georgia History the few words des
criptive of Louisville. “Louisville is
famous for her hospitality and her
splendid citizenry”. This, the speak
er stated, was the finest heritage any
people could enjoy and would em
brace the ideals, the tradition, the
godliness and the liberal mindedness
hjihat are the chief attributes of a
vgreat people.
Judge Hardeman said* a tribute to
P the U. D. C. Who have beautified
the old market House. He suggest
f ed t)ic* the Kiwanis club promote a
r >o erect a market on the site
of the burning of the Yazoo Fraud
papers, and (he cleaning of the old
ceidetery just back of the stoies
that is fast falling into utter ruin.
He made mention of distinguished
Georgians whose graves should be
preserved, and of the ancient mon
uments that would be of interest to
all tourists. These two suggestions
met with hearty response as senti
ment along this line has been grow
ing for many weeks.
Rev. Paul Pressly of Chester, S.
C. was enthusiastically received and
was accorded the respectful attention
and active interest that his presence
• always inspires.
Mr. Tommie Rivers was called
upon for a short talk and was wel
comed into the club by the toast
master.
Considerable fun was derived from
the showing of original lantern
shades with jokes on the Kiwan
ians. The program was a great suc
t cess and the singing of Till we
f Meet Again closed a most enjoya
ble and versatile program for Ladies
Night.

THE NEWS AND FARMER
SENATOR HARRIS
i
To the Eidtors of Georgia:
When Senator Wm. J. Harris en
tered the Senate of the United States
after his wonderfully rapid rise from
private life, I wrote for one of the
current magazines a prediction that
when his term was ended, he would
be written in the records as per
haps not the most eloquent, but cer
tainly as one of the most practical
and useful men who had served
Georgia in that great assembly.
The results of Senator Harris’ first
term, now two-thirds completed, have
abundantly vindicated my predic
tion.
He has had four years in the sen
ate. During this time he has had
four different colleagues and today
he is the Senior Senator from Geor
gia. He can soberly challenge the
record that, within these years he
has secured as much or more for
Georgia—for Georgia men and wo
men—for Georgia interests, as any
previous Senator has done since Joe
Brown utilized his “judgment ’ and
his tact in the service of the stae.
I congratulate myself that I am not
a bad judge of men.
Senator Harris has won the honor
of a membership on the great Ap
propriations Committee of the Sen
ate which handles all bills to pro
vide tnopey for the government un
der the budget system. He is the.
one Senator on that committee from
the entire southeast, and, excepting
Senator Owen of Oklahoma, he is the
only Southern member of the eom
mitte from North Carolina to New
Mexico.
He is a member, and in several
cases the ranking member of six
sub-committees which actually draft
the bills—the War Department, Post
Office Department, including Federal
aid for good roads, the Department
of Agriculture, the Department of
Commerce Department of the Inte
rior and the legislative establish
ments. The committees of Immigra
tion and Territories complete his im
portant assignments.
Though alert and active service
the Senator has been largely instru
mental in assisting the various mili
tary 7 activities in Georgia with ade
quate appropriations particularly at
Fort Benning. The rivers and har
bors of Georgia have received large
allotments from the government.
Such important work as the develop
ment of pecans; the subjugation of
the peach pest; the stations for boll
weevil experiment work; telegraphic
reports on market and crop condi
tions for live stock, watermelons,
peaches and other fruits and vege
tables. have been assisted through
Senator Harris’ efforts.
He is the author of valuable legis
lation written in the statutes of the
67th congress, and several of his bills
passed the senate but failed of final
action in the house. Among the laws
which he introduced are the limita
tion of cost to $250,000 for the con
struction of Federal Reserve Bank
buildings without consent of con
gress; the amendment to permit
small state banks to enter the Fede
ral Reserve system; the amendments
to the Federal Warehouse Act to
broaden the scope of products which
might be stored, and to strengthen
the warehouse receipts.
Sumimng up the achievements and
usefulness of the first term in the
United State Senate, our Senior Sen
ator from Georgia may well rest up
on that record for a practical en
dorsement in 1924, as a public ser
vant who has fulfilled the scruptural
standard, “Diligent in business, fer
vent in Spirit”—serving the state.
Signed.
JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES.

Sparta, Ga., Sept. 25.—Senator
Wm. J. Harris, Georgia’ senior sena
tor, spoke before a large gathering
here today. Senator Harris in his
address to the large gathering told
of his “stewardship while a senator
from Georgia.” His record was un
animously endorsed at the meeting

BARTOW CLUB ENJOYS
FIDDLERS CONVENTION
A fiddlers’ convention was held
at the opera house under the aus
pices of the Bartow Woman’s Club
last Wednesday night, Sept. 12.
There were ten to play: three of
whom did some buck dancing at dif
ferent intervals. We are pretty sure
every one enjoyed the music, be
cause we heard from dear old “Dixie”
to the beautiful trains of Hawaiian
melodies.
While the fiddlers rested two cakes
were autioned off. Mr. T. J. Smith
bid in the pound cake while Dr. W.
L. Harvey got the Lady Baltimore.
It was then proposed by Mr. Smith
that he give half his cake to the
girl in the house who received the
greatest number of votes for being
the prettiest and that the doctor
divide his with the ugliest man. The
votes were ten cents each. While
Dr. Harvey was a nominee for the
ugliest man, it seems too bad he had
to cut his cake too.
Mr. Thigpen of Wrightsville, won
the first prize of ten dollars; Mr.
Jim Cooper and Mr. J. C. Cooper
both of Bartow, won second and
third prizes, which were 83 and 82
dollars, respectively.
The door receipts were between
850 and 860.
The club heartily thanks every
one who in any way co-operated.
YELLOW VS. WHITE CORN
FOR PIGS
A superstitious belief which has
long been held by farmers is that
yellow corn is “stronger” or more
effective as a feed than is white
corn. As has been the base with
many superstitions of the kind, re
cent investigations have shown that
there is a scientific basis for this
belief- The explanation now given is
that white corn is poor (along with
oats, rye, wheat and barley") in the
fat-soluble vitamines, -while yellow
corn is rich in these accessory fool!
factors-
Pasture crops are rich in fat
soluble vitamines and when pigs
have access to plenty of green feed
there is not much difference be
tween the gains obtained on white
corn and on yellow corn. It is when
the green plants are not available
to the animals that the advantages
of yellow corn feeding are greatest.
For late fall and winter feeding,
even with such excellent supple
mentary feeds as tankage, the white
corn rations have given decidedly
lower gains than the yellow corn
combination. At the Wisconsin sta
tion it has recently been found that
it requi.cd 424 pounds of yellow
.corn and 45 pounds of tankage to
produce 100 pounds gain (at a daily
rate of 1.04 pounds a head), start
ing with 65-pound pigs. It required
473 pounds white corn and 48
pounds of tankage to produce a 100-
pound gain (and at the rate of 0.77
pound daily).
The superiority of yellow corn
has been shown in trials with skim
milk similar to those with tankage.
In the case of skim milk the white
corn ration not only gave poorer
gains but the pigs were more sus
ceptible to rheumatism, pneumonia,
etc. Yellow corn and skim milk
gave satisfactory gains and the
animals remained healthy. Yellow
corn may be deficient in mineral
matter, as some experiments have
indicated, and this should he sup
plied in the form of a salt mixture.
Legume hay (chopped alfalfa) fed
with white corn supplied tile defi
cient food factor and the combina
tion proved about as satisfactory as
when yellow corn was fed. The ani
mals were healthy and gave good
gains. By feeding with a small
amount of alfalfa (chopped in the
silage cutter) the feeder having no
yellow corn will increase his gains
from his white corn. While there
arc no experiments yet to report,
it reasons that chopped peavine,
peanut vine, or clover, etc., would
serve to improve the ration which
contains the white corn.

HOSPITABLE SAVANNAH ENTERTAINS EDITORS
GUESTS MADE HONORARY DIRECTORS OF FAIR
Boatrides, Banquets, Auto Rides and Theater Party Fill
Delightful Day.
Editors of Georgia, after Monday
so delightfully spent in Savannah,
arc inclined to belijpve that this sea
port city leads the world in hos
pitality and dispensing of good
cheer as well as in its sugar re
fineries, naval stores, and other in
dustries, for the day was crowded
with pleasant events and the genial
hosts left no act of kindness or
thought fulness undone.
Through the courtesy and co-op
eration of a committee from the
Savannah Motor Club, the visiting
newspaper folk were met at the
railway stations and conveyed to
the DeSoto in automobiles. The
crowd assembled on the Bull Street
balcony and at 10:45 o’clock went
into the reception hall of the hotel,
where an address of welcome was
made by Judge Paul E. Scabrook,
the mayor, in behalf of the city.
P. A. Stovall presided as chairman
of the meeting.
Mr. Stovall said he, in common
with all Savannahians, was happy
to have the editors, but that Mayor
Seabrook would tell the visitors
how glad.
Judge Seabrook said it was a
great, prviilegc to extend a welcome
to the newspaper editors. “You come
to a ctiy which is renowned for its
honorable traditions, for its culture
and its refinement,” said Judge Sea
brook, “particularly for the high
commercial integrity of her busi
ness.
“Savannah welcomes you today
and has a great many things io say
of which we are proud and which
we never fail to mention when the
opportuntiy offers.”
In regular order the mayor out
lined the commercial importance of
Savannah and her location as a
gateway to the sea- He touched upon
the fact Savannah is the largest cot
ton port on the Atlantic; the im
portance of the sugar refinery, and
the oil refinery; the naval stores
business; the fertilizer industry, the
second largest plant in the United
States being located here; the stor
age plants, the match factory, the
compresses, the importance of the
banks and their relationship to the
movement of commerce to and from
the port-
Judge Seabrook, after enumerat
ing the natural resources of the
city and her importance to the en
tire interior, asked the editors when
they returned home to K brag about
us,” because the matters to which
he referred are subjects in which all
Georgia should be interested.
Judge Seabrook said it is impera
tive necessary to get away from
the idea of producing cotton as a
single revenue crop. The people are

Hoyt says that new house of his

already doing so, he said, and it is
necessary to pay more attention to
the production of other products.
In the development of agricultural
activities it is very necessary to
have a point of distribution and the
mayor expressed the hope that the
time is not far distaut when some
plan will be developed by which
the facilities of Savannah as a dis
tributing center may be broadened.
He particularly stressed the neces
sity of some central point where
commodities may he assembled and
(list ributed.
The mayor touched upon the state
port plan and said he hoped the
people would rally to the idea, hut
he particularly emphasized the fact
this is not merely a Savannah, hut
is rather a Georgia project. He
briefly sketched the activities of
Savannah as a port, referring to the
numerous sailings on regular sched
ules from this gateway to the sea
to various centers on the Atlantic
and Pacific coast and voiced the
opinion that Savannah, already
great as a commercial center, will
steadily increase in importance as
a seaport.
The visitors were taken to the
Bull Street docks shortly before 11
o’clock and boarded the tug Cynthia
for the trip to Fort Screven. There
guard mount, a parade, and drill,
band concert and machine gun drill
illustrative of methods employed in
the late war were included in the
entertainment. Following the inspec
tion the party went to the Hotel
Tybce, where a shore dinner was
served. Music was furnished by the
Eighth Infantry band.
At 3:30 o’clock the party left Ty
bee for Savannah by automobile.
The trip was made via Isle of Hope,
White Bluff. Victory Drive, Daffin
Park and through Bull Street to
the DeSoto
At 6 o’clock the editors were
guests at a banquet at Hotel DeSoto!
A few charming and interesting
speakers were introduced whose
words of encouragement and praise
were in line with the many acts of
kindness shown throughout the day.
Later the party was entertained at
Lucas Theatre.

SCHOOL RALLY BARTOW
A School Rally was held in the
Bartow School Auditorium Monday
night September 24, 1923, for the
purpose of arousing interest in Bar
tow and the surrounding communi
ty towards erecting anew school
building.
Supt. C. E. Anthony was in charge
of the program and in his-opening
remarks told the people of the pres
ent crowded condition of the school.
He said he had enrolled up to the
present time 258 and would have
about 325 children enrolled by the
first of October.
The present building can only ac
commodate six grades, which nec
essitates the renting of four rooms
in a private* home across the cam
pus.
Senator John R. Phillips made the
opening address on “School and Tax
Problems”. Mr. Phillips gave an
outline of the present work of the
Tax Commission of which he is a
member appointed by the Governor.
He stated that the present tax sys
tem of Geojgia goes back to 1868
when the treasury of the state of
Georgia was locked and the key
thrown away aid it is the purpose
of the incoming legislature to pass a
graduated income tax that will un
lock our present treasury and start
a stream of gold that will flow over
the entire state.”
Roy V. Harris representative from
Jefferson County waxed eloquent in
his talk on the “Value of Education
to the Community”. Mr. Harris prov
ed beyond a shadow of a doubt that
he was an orator of no mean abil
ity and stated in very clear tones
what anew school building would
mean to Bartow and the surround
ing community. The people from
the country around Bartow are lit
erally forcing the trustees to take
some action, so that their children
will be given the advantages of an
education that they were unable
to get in their youth.
The meeting was brought to a
close with a general discussion along
school bonds and anew building.
County School Supt. Little gave a
short talk on the need of a new
building to relieve the present
crowded condition.
Short talks were given by Messrs.
T. Y. Smith, Wiley Evans, G. P.
Whigham, and Mark Hall.

LOUISVILLE FARMERS
ARE SELLING COTTON
• Recently the fanners of this coun
ty have been very busy gathering
cotton and have marketed it more
or less rapidly. For the last several
days the price has been most at
tractive and the spirit an encour
agement thus furnished to the fcl-'
low who has made this quota of
cotton this year is very noticeable
at this time. Many of the farmers
will pay up their expenses for the
year and in some cases where the
debts of former years arc not too
heavy will clear some money. Al
together tlie condition of the farmer
in this county is believed to be much
better than it has been in any time
within the last three years.
TEAM IS ORGANIZED
The Louisville school’s football
team has been organized and, under
the direction of Professor Royston.
is under going vigorous practice.
They hope to be ready for some en
gagement with other high school
teams in the state and carry off
some football victories this sea
son.
ADVANTAGES TO TEACHERS OF
CONSOLIDATION
.1 Close supervision by trained
and experienced principal.
2. Fewer grades to teach, larger
classes and more interest, there
fore, work can he done with more
| satisfaction to all concerned.
3. Lessons may be prepared
3. Lessons may be planned and
prepared in advance. This is almost
I impossible in the one-room school
! where the teacher has from 26 to 40
recitations to hear each day.
4. Teacher is assigned to grade
to which she is adapted by nature,
training and experience.
5. Inexperienced or weak teacher
has the support of the principal and
other teachers in the school.
6. Teachers can confer frequent
ly, hold faculty meetings and pro-
I mote efficiency of the school
' through co-operation that fol Tows
organized effort, team work and
close association.
7. Social advantages are similar
to town environment and teachers
are more contented.
8. The problem of discipline is
made easier, longer tenure on the
part of teachers.
ADVANTAGES TO PARENTS
1. Do not have to move to town
to educate their children, and leave
their farms to depreciate in the
hands of tenants.
2. It is not necessary to break up
the home circle by having the
mother and children move to town
to secure school advantages, while
the father remains on the farm to
earn e living for the family.
3. Through the practical teaching
of agriculture and domestic science
pupils become more intelligent and
interested helpers on the farm and
around the house.
4. Saves the annoyance and in
convenience of transporting their
out/children tc -Jjool during the
bac weather or spafing a team for
the children during the busy sea
son. Know their children are under
supervision from the time they leave
home in the morning until they re
turn at night.
ADVANTAGES TO COMMUNITY
1. Consolidation leads to better
roads and better homes, increased
land values, pride in community and
civic improvement.
2. Prosperity through improved
methods in agriculture.
3. Provides high school oppor
tunities for the children whose pa
rents cannot afford to send them to
a town school and pay tuition for
them, thus making, the community
a desirable place in which to live.
4. School library is available for
entire district. It enlarges the unit
of taxation and thus distributes the
cost of the schools more equitably.
5. The consolidated school goes a
long way toward the solution of the
problem “How To Keep the Boys On
the Farm.”

in this exhibit. If you intend to
have an exhibit, I should be glad
for you to write immediately to me
