NOT PIONEERS.

■ method of electing superior
court judges good enough for thorn.
Brother Greer makes out a first class
etae, but he lows eight of the foot that
the Qober-Morria contest was a climax
and not an incident. Wo grant that at
least one of those gentlemen miglitho
easily able to contaminate the poll-
tloa of Florida or even Pennsylvania;
bat granting this, wo do not grant them
to be pioneer* in tho field of judicial po-
littoid filth. We, too, ore opposed to re
ferring the election of judge* back to
th*legislature, hot the supremo bench
•afar hold* it* reputation for purity.
Why not try them?

Qovornrpont Report Shows How
Much Rain wo Hava and How Cold
it is. Last September Highest Rain
fall Ever Recorded Here.
Strangeis have sometimes doubted
the word of» Thomaavillhui when he
told of how 11 inches of rain fell here
last September in 86 hours. ‘ The latest
issue of the Georgia climate report off
ers at least an aid to faith.
In tho report, for tho past three issues
has bot-n running an excellent, resume of
the climate and natural advantages of
TliomusviUc. A statistical table appear*
giving both the maximum, mini
mum an i avera; s uinfall for each month
for the past 57 years. Tills table shows
the avorn»fO precipitation f<Jr Septem
ber to be font* and tliree quarter incht s
and the greatest ruiufqll for any Sep
tember in the entire 27 to lw that or
1908, when a total of >1 78 inches
deposited. The next highest record to
this was September 1903, when only
9. 53inoheH wpro recorded.
The impmtnncG of this variation from
the not mal can be bettor appreciated
when one considers that iu these 3tf
hours Imir, full wo received almost ouo
fourth of the entire average annual
rain fall.

85 inches, Bays the report, t» slightly
abovo the average for tho southern sec
tion of the state. The wettest part of
tho year is from June to August,ami the
dryest is during tho autumn. Both the
wiutor*aud spring seasons afford but
little more rain than tho fall.
Under normal conditions, July furn
ishes the greatest monthly rainfall,
averaging 0.83 inches. The dryoat mouth
is Novoluber, which has, as a rule, less
than three inches of raiu. Tho smallest
monthly fail on record however, was in
Docombnr 1889, when not a sufficient
amount of rain foil during tho entire
31 day a for it to be measured.
The uverugo number of rainy days
per year is 103, distributed through the
several seasons as follows: Winter, 33;
spring 21; summer 41; autumn 20.
“Tho record shows that Thomas coun
ty snffeis little from sevoro and prolong-
drought," says Mr. Marbary. Private
observation will bear out tho state
meat too.
Wldle the present drought scorns hard
to boar, it is nothing compared with
what otjier sections of the state undergo
every summer
Taking up the matter of temperature
the ropo.-t gives tho following tempera
ture averages for the <yftoivut mouths.
Nature's Gift from the Sunny South
No matter how faithful and hon
est your cook may be, she is behind
tho times if she uses lard or cooking butter for frying and shortening.
The great medical and cooking authorities of tho country say so; they
endorse Cottolene as the most palatable, healthful and economical cook
ing fat on the market. Tho following names of Cottolene endorsers
are household words:
Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer, Mrs. Emma P. Ewing, Marion Harland,
Mrs. Eliza R. Parker, Lida Ames Willis, Mrs. Janet M. Hill, Dr. Mary E.
Greon, Miss Margaret Wister, Mrs. Elizabeth O. Hiller, Mrs. Helen Arm
strong, ChristineTcrhune Herrick, Mrs. F. A. Benson, R. Ogden Doremis,
M. D., LL. D., J. Hobart Egbert, A. M., M. D., Ph. D., and hundreds of
others, prominent in household economy and the medical profession.
USE $$ LESS. Cottolene being richer than either lard or cooking
butter, one-third less is required.
