Weath erly, the proprietors of the new bottling industry which has re cently opened in Bainbridpehave commenced operation and hope to have their drink on sale in the city at all stands commenc ing with Friday and Saturday. I They have been delayed in get ting their new machinery, some of which is still on the road. These gentlemen are going to canvass the town of Bainbridge adjacent territory carefully in the exploitation of the new drink. Commenting on the new drink, Mr. Weatherly of the new plant said, “we are indeed glad that we are able to obtain the terri- I torial rights in this section for iLime Cola, as we are firmly con 'vinced that it is a very refresh ing Cola drink, besides being extemely healthful. Lime Cola is a result of the popular demand for a Cola drink with pure Lime Juice added; simply the old story, but new in bottles. In all towns in A’abama, Flori da, and Georgia, where it. is be ing bottled, it enjoys a wide jro;.- ularitv, due mostly to the fact that the preat (juantit of Lime •juice it contains makes it an ideal Cola for those who possess a weak stomach.

Mr. Keese comes very highly recommended and has the hacking of a Very strong element in the state that feel that the people are not getting right now what they should at the hands of the present com missioner. Mr. Speight is known as a citizen that would not ask the voters to support a man that is not qualified, his work coupled with the disatisfaction now ex isting makes it look very much like Mr. Keese will get the county. the farmers whenever matters affecting their interest are be ing considered. It was there fore no more than what was to have been expected that when he arose in the House on the 11th of July and asked for un animous consent to address the House, he addressed himself to the subject of rural credits and proceeded to explain how the rural credits bill which is now a law was expected to operate. The following extracts are made from Judge Park’s speech: “Since I have had the honor of representing my district in Con gress, I have advocated, and have desired to vote for some measure that would enable the farmer to borrow money at a low rate of interest. The lack of power to borrow money at a low rate of interest on long time has handicapped the develop ment of our rural sections. I be lieve that a proper rural credit system will do more for the de velopment and prosperity of our country than any other one measure before the American Congress. I introduced a bill providing for loans to be made direct to the farmer, without red tape, which was approved by the Farmers Union, The Grange and Alliance ot Farm ers. I believe that the tenant insuring himself against press ure to pay out large amounts and hereby deprive himself and family. No doubt Congress will amend this law from time to time as the needs of the fanners are shown. I trust it will not be long before we can add to this legislation and give to the farm ers who who do not own land a credit system that will enable them to easily purchase a home and finance their crops without paying the exorbitant rates of interest under the present sys tem.—Albany Herald.

VOTE FOR HIM farmer should be enabled to secure aid to make it possible for him to acquire his own farm and thereby independance for himself and family and so great is my belief in the rural credit system that I now feel that all friends of rural credits should join heartily in trying to make this system a success, in order that the best results to the farmers of our country may be secured. Greatest impetus ever given AGRICULTURE. I believe that this act will prove the greatest impetus ever given agriculture in this country inasmuch as it will encourage those who now rent their farms to save and become farmers in their own right, and will cause a great number of men now en gaged in other businesses that are less profitable to become farmers, and will make it posible for all farmers to obtain necess ary finances.” LOANS MAY BE SECURED FROM FIVE TO FORTY YEARS AT FIVE PER CENT AND LESS. "The law will permit loans to run for at least 40 years. I urge borrowers to accept a reasonably long period of repayment. The curse of farm-mortage debt un der present conditions has been the pressure to repay within a short period. If has entailed hardships on the family. It has prevented the taking of short vacations and trips of travel, i made debt an oppressor, and has given a mortage a destruct-1 ive influence over destinies of! the family of the debtor. Yet! under former conditions these in-j fluences could not be avoided. This law does away these evils. It provides a mortage contract that can not be recalled.
