HEARD & GRACE
VIENNA, GEORGIA
TO THE PUBLIC
From this date I will quit haying
cotton from the board as I' will be-
in future a Warehouseman only. The
cause is namely: It cost too much
money to carry a bale of cotton away
from the railroad, then have to haul
it back. Thcp resent cost is as fol
lows:
Sample at present price 50
Hauling to Warehouse 10
From warehouse back to railroad .15
Warehouse charges 55
Total .....$1.30
Kind friends who pays this! Lis
ten! you pay it. If this was all I
would stop and say no more, but it
cost 3 days time on account of poor
service to get your bale of cotton out
of the warehouse on account of the
scarcity of labor, as on account of the
warehouses being full it takes four
men to get a bale picked up and out
of a piel. I say cut it out.
I will weigh, class and put your
cotton f. o. b. the G. S. & F. Railroad
for sixty cents per bale against $1.30
it is now costing you. A saving of
one-eight of a cent per pound, not
only this, hut I will save you three
day’s interest as well as loss in weight
for this time to the buyer.
Friends: I know the cotton busi
ness and am telling you facts this you
cantoot deny, and more, I will not
koep you waiting all day to sell your
cotton. I will operate a free automo
bile tp carry you and the buyers
twice a^ay at 9:30 a. m. and 3 p. m.,
these will hem y principle sales hours
as it is after the opening and close of
the contract markets.
Remember I will not buy your cot
ton unless you so desire then I will
resell it to the first buyer that comes
unless the marketc hanges, at the
samep rice paid for it. I will make
sixty centsT. bale without ever samp
ling and underweighing and save you
time and Interest.
This is the time to cut out all ex-
trq expenses and handle your crops
to the best advantage to your coun
try, and yourself.
> Do not expose this the South’s
greatest crop to the rain to rot I
will house and protect every bale of
cotton I weigh.

ways of being very firm about it. As
a part ef the follow-up work of the
Children's Year campaign to save
l$$,l$$ babies, Cleveland haa a big
aimy motor truck fitted up as a Baby
Saving Special. 1$ has two side tents
; which when in position, make of the
affair a three-room clinic. Hero the
children are weighed and measured,
aad given a thorough examination. If
Ifcty are found to be entirely healthy
_,ver one-third are reported not to
bs they are sent to a Keep Well
Baslth Center. If they are ailing,
thay are immediately sent to the Ba
bies’ Dispensary and Hospital. The
big truck is a health policeman with
a regular beat, and- goes arouhd from
one ward to another, driven by a mem
ber of the Woman’s mdtor corps, and
la charge of a doctor and none. Con
necticut has a similar motor truck
Baby Special; in Michigan they are
using regular interban car. _
“Spare the brush and spoil the
teeth” is the way they are saying it
at the Children’s Honse op-the Boston
Common. About 1,200 people a
week wend their way through the
three rooms of thee ottage which are
devoted respectively to Hygiene, Food
and Play, in the Hygiene Room a
trained nurse shows the proper way
to bathe the baby, whose bath, by the
.way, takes place in a homemade tub.
The baby is then dried on the home-
mnde bath table, and put.to sleep in
the model baby carriage. In the sec
ond room there is an exhibit of the
