Mrs. R. L. Hudson, 521 Fletcher
St., says: “Several years ago my
back was weak and it was hard for
■e to do my housework. Sharp
twinges seized me through my back
when I stooped. I waa dizzy and
hlack spots jumped before my eyes
which blurred my sight. Nervous
spoils came over me and I went all to
pieces. I had tcrriblo headaches
which followed tho nervous spells.
My kidneys wero weak and I suffer
ed from their irrcgulnr action. I had
heard so much about Doan's Kidney
Pills that 1 got two boxes at Brad
ford’s Drug Store. These two boxes
were all I needed to make my kidneys
normal and to rid me of the aches
and pains in my back. I felt like a
different person after using Doan’s.”

While some people believe that a
farmer has "no business sense," Mr.
Brown is a sure-enough "dirt far-
mer’’ who has given his useful de
partment a business administration.
All the ridicule that his enemies are
pouring out on his State Bureau of

not prevent the farmers of Georgia—

The weather is too hot for us to
"get all het up” over politics this
year. We will not let that fact deter
us, of course, from expressing our
convictions and preferences.
Gov. Hardwick seems to be trying
to hog things —running for re-elec
tion himself and, in effect, running
for Commissioner of Agriculture, too.
Of course, no one could really have
expected a term in the Governor’s of
fice to change his nature.
Some over-zealous friends of the
State College of Agriculture arc try
ing to have the State Agricultural
Department abolished, and its func
tions —and revenues—turned over to
that institution. There should be
plenty of room in Georgia for both.
The Georgia State Committee on
Race Relations recommends the es
tablishment of a state constabulary
similar to the Texas Rangers,and that
tho Attorney General and Chief Jus
tice of tho state be empowered to
shift Judges and Solicitors in special
cases, as is done in Alabama.
The wholesale murder of coal min
ers by strikers in Illinois a few days
ago has finally aroused the national
administration to action. President
Harding has notified the conference
of coal operators and miners that un
less they speedily find a peaceful set
tlement of their troubles the Govern
ment will handle the matter.
In an effort to discredit the Obre-
gon administration, Mexican rebels
are again playing the old game of
attacking Americans. President Wil
son was bitterly criticized for not go
ing to war with Mexico under similar
circumstances, but we are inclined to
think President Harding will follow
Mr. Wilson’s level-headed example
Senator P. J. McCumber, another
of the nation’s lending Republicans,
was defeated for re-nomination in
the North Dakota primary last week
—and that, too, by ex-Gov. Lynn
Frazier, who was recalled by the
them on the head as fast as they come
McCumber was one of the Newberry
supporters, and the voters are hitting
people in a special election last year,
up. North Dakota’s action was also
due to disgust at the general inaction
of the Republican majority in both
houses of the present Congress.

Dr. C. W. Peek, of Antioch, one of
Polk’s beet and most deservedly pop
ular citizens, announces his candi
dacy for the Legislature, subject to
the primary Sept 13th — an an
nouncement that will be received with
much gratification by his hoat of
friends.
Freight rates throughout the Unit
ed States on practically all commo
dities were reduced Sunday by 10
per cent when the carriers of the
country put into effect the decision
rendered last month by the Inter
state Commerce Commission in the
general rate case.
We have never let Tom Watson
nor anyone else dictate our editorial
policy, and the fact that he is for Cliff
Walker for Governor this year is cer
tainly not going to make us vote a-
gainst him. There are some news
papers in Georgia who make fun of
Senator Watson's supporters for
sticking to him through thick and
thin, who go to the other extreme
and let his support of any men or
measures drive them the other wny.
Which is the worse?

The Georgia Legislature adjourned
for the 4th of July, and Hon. W. W.
Mundy was home for the holiday.
In conversation with The Standard
editor, he stated that one of the meas
ures he will introduce provides for
the opening of the ’possum season on
Oct. 1st. Several years ago it was
fixed for Nov. 16th, a time at which
no one cares much about hunting
them, while ’simmon time makes Oct.
1st a most desirable dnte.
Our farmers in particular will ap
preciate this change in the law, which
is also desired by the Polk County
Game & Fish Protective Association.
Over the protests of Democratic
Congressmen, the Republican major
ity in the House forced an adjourn
ment of that body until the middle of
August. The Old Guard defeats in
Indiana, Iowa and North Dakota have
thrown a scare" into the Republican
ranks, and the Congressmen insisted
on going home to "look after their
fences.” The Democrats pointed out
the do-nothing record of the present
Congress and great amount of busi
ness demanding attention, but the
business of the nation in made to
wait on their personal plans.

Ten peaches for every man, wom
an and child in the United States
were handled by the Central of
Georgia Railway last year, according
to a statement of President W. A.
Winbum, who tells in interesting
fashion of the methods of handling
perishable freight. In addition to the
peach crop the Central transports
much of the Georgia watermelon
crop, also Cuban pineapples. Perish
able freight must be handled in a
rapid and dependable manner, Mr.
Winbum says, otherwise consuming
centers would have to depend upon
limited areas nearby and trade would
be constricted.
The railway executive goes on to
discuss other features of freight ser
vice, some of which are little under
stood even by shippers, though the
details are very interesting. He out
lines the methods by which fast rail
and steamer service is maintained,
and says nineteen vessels can be loa
ded and unloaded at one time on the
Savannah waterfront of the company
In order to be ready for reviving
business the Central of Georgia has
added, since Federal Control, 19 lo
comotives, 500 ventilated box cars
and 100 flat cars. It owns 315 loco
motives and 8,716 freight cars.
The President says that all agents,
employes and officers of the road are
ready at all times to assist patrons
and give full information, and ho
urges the public to avail themselves
of this service.
