Senatorship— HERE ARE THE RECORDS 1. Thomas W. Hardwick** first conspicuous act was to vote In Congress to raise his own salary 33 1.3 per cent. 2. Mr. Hardwick fought the Parcel Post the greatest boon the farmers have had In a gen eration. He boasts that he still opposes It. 3. Mr. Hardwick fought Pres ident Wilson’s new currency plan which the Wall 6treet bankers opposed. This new law will enable the farmers of the United States to borrow $500.- 000.000.00. The proportion to Georgia will be $10,000,000.00. The farmers will be able to bor row on cotton, corn, live-stock and produce. 4. Mr. Hardwick turned the facilities of the Government Printing Office In Washington over to a paid lobbyist. He has been using the Government franks to send his speeches broadcast to promote his can didacy for Senator. 5. Mr. Hardwick has not an swered a dozen roll-calls In “three months. He Is drawing down $'8.40 a day from the Na. tlonal Treasury as a Represen tative of ti.e Teath District. 6. Mr. Hardwick while pro claiming bombastically through out the State that he cut the duty from sugar, the record Is against him. He was Chairman of Committee to Investigate the Sugar Trust. In his report of thirty-two pages not one word can he found about reduc ing or taking the tax off sugar. (See report 331, Sixty-second Congress. Second Session.) 7. During his twelve years In Congress. Mr. Hardwick has not been the author or the chief promoter of any one nota ble act. Mr. Slaton put over the Inheritance Tax Law which many others had recommended but not produced. Put over the Revised Registration Law which others had failed to get through. Reduced the State's expenditures for the first time in forty years. Protected the State’s credit and financial standing by borrowing money for Georgia at 3 per cent when neigh boring States were paying 7 per cent. Fought for and put over the Tax Equalization Law, which has put millions of formerly unreturned property on the tax books. He saved the State's credit and made it possible at the same time to lower the tax rate. Redeemed in a year his pledges as Governor, and accomplished more constructive work during that pe riod than had been done in ten years before. HE IS THE BEST TRAINED PVBLIC MAN IN GEORGIA. John M. Slaton State Campaign Committee ALFRED C. NEWELL, Quirmac J. A. MORROW, Secretary N. B.—Don’t forget that Hardwick boasts that he fought the Parcel Post. Advertisement 1. John M. Slaton left the chair In the State Senate and saved the Income Tax amend ment which puts the burden of taxation on the rich. 2. Mr. Slaton would, If made Senator, maintain and extend the present Parcel Post Sys tem. 3. Mr. Slston Is for the new Currency Law, because It will prevent panlo conditions and high money rates. He Is for a system of national rural credits. 4. Mr. Slaton Is going down In his own pocket for his cam. palgn expenses. If elected he will not be under obligation to any man or set of men. 5. Mr. Slaton has remained continually on the Job as Gov ernor of the State. His candi dacy Is a consultation with the people. 6. Mr. Slaton has been a consistent advocate of low tariff and of all acts which would re duce the high cost of living. 7. Here are some of the acts which characterize the record of John M.

The milk should be drawn slowly and steadily. • • s A good cow Is naturally impatient With constant irritation, any cow will fail In quantity of milk. • • • That is a good reason why every sheep ought to have her own stall and be fed separately from the rest. • • • There Is not much gain in breeding a heifer before she Is eighteen months old. but there Is considerhble risk • • • Which do you prefer, to pay $2,500 to a stallion peddler for a SI,OOO horse, or keep the $1,500 In your own pocket? • • • Some cows have very tender teats, and If you want a well disposed cow, be gentle In your treatment towards her. • • • The man with five cows und a cream separator Is better off than his neighbor who has eight cows and no machine • • • The actual cost to keep added to the service fee of the sire, represents the amount at which horses you raise stand you. • * • Especially In summer.

Give the mixture in n drench • • • It Is poor economy to feed the poul try on one kind of grain. It Is more profitable in every way to give vari ety, of which corn, wheat and oats should be tho leading feeds • • • If there is any protection at all for the poultry from the high winds, they should be let out for a few hours at least, every day. when the weather Is not so cold as to freeze the combs. • • • The manure spreader and the silo are two things that point the farmer towards a better bank account, and It Is not going to be so very long be fore we will add to this the milking machine • • * The only certain way to find out what sort of cows we have is to test them. Sometimes the results are very disappointing and we may wish we had not done it, but in the end it is greatly to our advantage * • • To omit the first and second spray ing from an apple orchard which is bearing a partial crop, practically means the loss of the crop for that season, no matter how thoroughly la ter applications of poison are made. • • Dear blight is an infectious disease which affects pears, apples and quinces. It Is caused by a bacterium, an organism which is similar in habit to tvphoid fever, and can be con trolled only by cutting out the af fected branches • • • The pure bred bull has done a great deal to Improve the dairy herds of the middle west.
