A Franklin county contest for
better babies was recently held in
Carnesvllle. Dr. Jerdlne of Athens,
who helped to judge the babies,
lectured on “diet for pre-school
age.” The Franklin papers pay a
high tribute to Dr. Jfardlne, as .a
baby specialist and tie ladies of
that county recommend him to any
mother who needs a specialist for
her baby. The federation, that fur
this winter. Farmers say the dry
weather since August has mare
patches utterly failures. To add to
the toruble a bug has appeared
that eats the tops from turnip*,
preventing their growth. Every
season, new insect pects are ap
pearing to depredate on crops and
vegetables.
Mr. Frank Holden will set out
about 35 acres in pecans on his
farm in Taliaferro county. Mr. Ed
Johnson near Athens has an acre
in pecans from which he last year
sold $300 worth of nuts, and says
he would not take that sum for
his crop this y^ar. A ‘number of
pecan orchards are being set out
arund Athens. The tree? will live
thered* this contest, requests that I century or more and every year
the mothers start a savings ac-1 bear a larger crop of fruit,
count with the pme money so that* - ..
the babies will have their first
earned money for a “school nest
egg.”
The local papers of Georgia are
objecting to the policy of the bales
contracted by the Cotton Co-Op
erative Association being shipped
to Che large cities, presumably
most of the cotton In this state go
lag to Atlanta. The press argues
that this is fattening the large
corporations in the large cities at
the expense of the warehouses in
the country town. The point is
well taken. Trade follows the cot
ton bales and this policy harms lo
cal merchants who helped the
farmers to grow that cotton. The
association should store cotton In
the sections where the members
reside. ,
We notice that twenty farmer*
In Wilkes county have organized
on a co-operativo basis, and will
establish a hatdhery. Plans are
I that the hatchery will be realy for
I business about the middle of No
yember. The hatchery will hove a
capacity of 10,000 eggs. It vould
be well for chicken raisers in oth-
er counties to adopt this plan, for
It would be a eavlng and greatly
aid and encourage the chicken
business.

Mr. Will Knox of Lexington was
In the city Wednesday and says he
heard eeveral parties report frost
In low places. A party from Madi
son county also reports frost thia
week. Cotton is now aboyt matured
and fro*t would not do much harm
but we would like it to stay off
as long as possible.
The Messrs. Dozier are exca
vating in one of the unfinished
rooms on Washington 3treet, ad
joining their gas station, for the
purpose of Installing a heating
plant to warm the offices located
on their property.
Mr. Peto Rowland, of Crawford,
ono ot the leading merchants of
his county, was in the city this
week. He says that very small cot
ton crops were planted In Ogle
thorpe, as the lumber business
promised* to pay better. Mr. Row
land says many people are In debt
and whllo the outlook is brighter
than ibis time last year, farmers
are not as yet out of the wilder

DIARRHEA
Infantile diarrhea if a danger signal
which should be heeded at once. Extra
precaution, and proper care on the
part of the mother, especially during
the warm summer months, will do
much to carry baby safely through
this dangerous period.
Diarrhea should be carefully guard
ed against at all timet, lor even a
■light attack may, unless promptly
and correctly treated, lead to severe
complications. A doctor should be
consulted for even slight attack,. If,
however, a doctor is not obtainable or
is unavoidably delayed, it would be
advisable to discontinue all food for
twenty-four hours, giving only plain
led water or barley water. After
twenty-four hours, it baby baa ins.

The problem of obtaining the utmost
satisfaction and economy in a motor car
resolves itself into a very simple formula

Diarrhea U far more frequent in
summer than in winter because the

only enough water at one time to last
through the day.
It is not advisable to change baby's
food during the summer. It is better
to be certain that the food is satisfac
tory before the warm weather sets in.
Breast milk is the safest milk at ail
times. If this is not available^ how
ever, the food selected must be a
clean, wholesome milk which must be
properly diluted according to the
baby’s age and weight. When you are
not sure of your local dairy supply*
condensed milk offers an ideal food
for infants because it is dean, uniform
in composition, nutritious, most easily
digested of any artificial food, and
ilways ready for instant use by merely
diluting with plain boiled water. If
orange juice and cereals are given (as
recommended with any milk formula),
condensed milk when properly fed
tupplies all the nourishment necessary
for baby’s growth.
Bowel troubles can be prevented.
Clean food, ckan cooking and feeding
utensils, pure drinking water, proper
amount of food at regular intervals,
with plenty of fresh air and sun-
»htne will do a great deal toward pro-
renting diarrhea. Flies are germ car
riers, and very often art the source
)f food contamination. /Therefore, it
is most important to keep these dan-
i away from baby and Us
can best be done by keep
ing the dies out of the house.

The following reasons explain why I believe the BUICK
ia the beat car of its class and why I would purchase it in
preference to the other makes of cars listed in the con
test:
Four-wheel brakes are sn outstanding feature. They
and distribute the strain of braking oyer a larger area.

The Buick uses an overhead valve engine. Thia type
of engine design gives more power per cubic inch dis-
The engineer! on the
i of engine because It
, , , is cleaner in opera
tion and more economical than other designa. With the
improved valve mechanism the BUICK uaea this year, it
is practically noiseleas and has ample lubrication.
The intake gasses an automatically heated by the j
exhaust.
The bodies are exceptionally attractive in design and
finish in both open and closed types. They compare
favorably with the high priced cars.
The above outstanding fedtnres—no other car of which
I know has all of them—the further fact that the BUICK
is ninety-eight per cent made in the BUICK factory and
the superior reputation of the local dealer, would decide
me in the purchase of a BUICK.
