IN THE SPRING
YOUR BLOOD
NEEDSjV TONIC
Winter Weakens Blood, Makes Faces
Pale. Take Glide’s Pepto-
Mangan
THE BEST KNOWN BLOOD TONIC
Drowsy Spring-Fever Feeling That
Conies From Sluggish Blood W ill
Soon Leave You.
As all growing things on earth shoot
into new life in Springtime, so ilo the
billions of cells that make up each part
of the body renew their vigor.
As you open the windows, breathe
the Spring air, and let in the sunshine,
the red corpuscles in your blood should
carry more oxygen to the tiny cells.
The red corpuscles are tiny disc
shaped particles, swimming in enor
mous numbers in the blood. They carry
oxygen to cells in all parts of the body,
and they carry away worn-out waste
matter. Sometimes, especially in the
Spring, after the winter indoors and
more or less sickness, the red corpus
cles themselves need rebuilding. Gude’s
Pepto-Mangan contains just the ingre
dients to give them greater power to
'absorb oxygen and to distribute it
throughout the body.
That is why it is such a good Spring
tonic. It. helps so much to bring back
color to cheeks made pale and wan by
the necessary indoor winter life. It
adds to the number of red corpuscles.
With tine Spring days and Gude’s
Pepto-Mangan you gain in vigor and
attain good health.
Don’t go around drowsy this Spring.
Take that good tonic, Gude’s Pepto-
Mangan. You can get it in tablet form
or in liquid form at your druggist’s.
Both forms have the same medicinal
Pepto-Mangan. Advertisement,

“SQUARE DEALWRITES
ABOUT LOW PRICE FARM
PRODUCTS—PLACES BLAME
Editor News:
If the Hon. J. J. Brown, Thos J.
Shackelford, J. S. Wanuamaker and
T. S. Johnson have been the cause of
all of our calamities, earthquakes, cy
clones, bankruptcies, suicides, etc.,
guess they are the cause of the selling
price of a beef hide not being equal to
the purchasing price of a pair of leath
er shoe strings, as a farmer, who re
cently tried it, was asked nine cents
difference between the strings and hide.
And because we were advised to hold
our cotton, twm hundred pounds of
wool, grown by the western farmer,
will not purchase a sweater, the said
sweater containing about two pounds
of wool. And because they advised us
to hold our cotton, Georgia cane syr
up is selling for thirty-five cents per
gallon, peanuts for two and a half cts
per pound, eggs for twenty cents per
dozen, cotton seed, corn and most farm
products have slumped, exceeding the
speed of a ton of fresh water eels slid
ing down a greased pole. And while
our farm products took the toboggan
slide downward, taxes of all . kinds,
freight and passenger rates, telephones,
gas, tobacco, hardware, fertilizer, all
either held their own or took a slide
upward with equal speed.
It is true that Brown, Johnson, and
associates advised us to hold our cot
ton until the cost of production was
reached. It is equally true that about
a year ago, we received a few car
loads of advice from another source.
Said advice, was for us to “buckle up
ourselves, secure a hoe and spade and
work, work, and WORK, and produce,
which we did. The invisible advisers,
who lived somewhere, would attend to
the rest. And we are told through the
ress, by no less authority than Mr. Wil
liams, the supposed controller of our
national currency, that a steady stream
of money has been discriminately pour
ed into the hands of the gamblers of
New York, and that he has been una
ble to get an equal amount turned into
the legitimate channels, such as mer
cantile and agriculture. And to sub
stantiate his statement, you have only
to observe the appearance of the few
one-dollar bills that you may chance
to seeAliey having a ragged and dirty
appearance. We are also informed
that while Brown, Johnson and Cos,
advised us to “hold till we could get
cost of production, our silver dollars
were called in and melted, to the amount
of one hundred million dollars and ship
ped to our new cousins across the wa
ter. And to substantiate this conten
tion, that of late, a silver dollar is near
ly as scarce as an open advocate of the
league ,of nations. Oh you Brown,
Shackelford and Wanuamaker, if you
had known a trap was being set you
could have turned the trick and advis
ed the Dixie farmer to sell their boll
weevil nines for six cents, the price
that is l>eing offered today.
Poor comfort to have the products
of your toil set at starvation prices by
a bunch of gamblers one thousand
miles away and according to Mr. Wil
liams, this bunch being singled out
and bosnteously supplied with the peo
ple’s money, those trusted officials high
up playing to their hands, coldly re
fusing to aid or encourage honest toil.
Queer proposition that the willing crit
ics are color blind to this.
Square Deal.
The Pneumonia Month.
March is a typical pneumonia month
and usually gives a high rate of mor
tality for the disease. After a long
and hard winter, the system loses
much of its resistance and people grow
careless. When every cold, no matter
how slight, is given prompt and intel
ligent attention, there is such less dan
ger of pneumonia. It should be borne
in mind that pneumonia is a germ dis
ease and breeds in the throat. Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy is an expecto
rant and cleans out the germ ladened
mucus and not only cures a cold hut
prevents its resulting in pneumonia. It
is pleasant to take. Children take it
willingly.

Facts of Vital Interest to
Everybody in Georgia
Trying to Repeat Seattle
Fiasco at the Expense
of Tax Payers
Just about one year ago the City of
Seattle bought the Electric Street
Railway operating on its streets, be
cause the Street Railway Company
could not continue operating its cars
at 6 cent fares, and were prevented
from increasing fares to meet in
creased expenses, and because the ad
vocates of Municipal Ownership as
sured the public that the Company
was making enormous profits and
were exaggerating the expense of
operation. The City chose the ac-i
countants that the advocates of Muni
cipal Ownership selected to appraise
the value of the property.
$15,000,600 for Car Lines
Their accountants found that the
street car lines in the City of Seattle
had cost in money, actually cost—
-515,000,000.00
The City paid for the Street Rail
way by an issue of bonds amounting
to $15,000,000.00, bearing 5% per an
num interest.
The City commenced operating the
Street Railway without any taxes to
pay; with no legal expenses to pay,
because the City Attorney’s Office
handled the legal business; with
practically no damage suits to pay,
as nobody could successfully collect
damages from the City.
Car Fares Advanced
After a short experience in operat
ing the street cars at 5 cents the
fare was ad\ anced to 10c cash with
tickets at 6y 4 c, but still the deficit
continued to pile up, and the service
continued to become worse.
The Mayor and Council are now
considering an advance in the street
car fare to 10 cents cash with
tickets at 8 l-3c. This increase is
pending and probably will be adopted,
but even it will only postpone the
final complete breaking of the system,
because of incompetent political man
agement. The Municipal Street Rail
ways are now $500,000.00 behind, and
after December 10th, 1920, their em
ployees are to be paid by the issuance
cf City warrants; there will be an
additional deficit January Ist, 1922,
of $1,610,452.00.
Sick of Their Bargain
The City of Seattle, represented by
its Mayor and Council, have recently
been trying to get the original owners
to take back the street railway sys
tem and return the bonds which the
City paid them. Suggestions that
legal proceedings be instituted to
force the original owners to do so are
discouraged by the City Attorney,
only because such an effort is in his
opinion illegal.
In the meantime the street car ser
vice is curtailed, and the public is
inconvenienced.
The irresponsible agitators who ad
vocated the purchase of the street
railway by the City of Seattle have
lost nothing, and they cannot be
prosecuted or punished, or sued for
damages, for misleading the public
by their false statements as to the
results of Municipal operation, but
the citizens of Seattle have before
them years of heavy taxation to take
care of interest and the constantly
increasing deficit caused by giving
street car service at less than cost,
and it will each day, each month and
each year, continue to cost more and
the service will continue to get worse.
Experiment a Failure
Seattle’s experiment in Municipal
Ownership is a miserable failure.
The people were first embittered
against the Street Car Company by
falsehoods and then the advocates of
Municipal Ownership were able to ac
complish their design, which was and
always will be to, “Exploit the Pub
lic”. The ultimate and secret creed
of these people is to destroy the
American system of Government and
substitute socialism, and in Seattle
they w.re cunning enough to induce
the people to furnish them the money
to work with.
J Spend State’s Money Instead
i of Their Own
The same brand of cunning so
cialists are preaching the same doc
trine in Georgia, and they are plan
ning to get ten times as much cf the
Eublic money as their brethren got in
eattle. They call it State and Muni
cipal Ownership. They tell you of
the water power development they
would undertake with the State’s
money, but they don’t tell you of any
water power that they are going to
develop with their own money.
Their maps show many thousand*
of horse power in Georgia yet unde
veloped. Why do they come begging
the State to allow them to raid the
Treasury and use the money of the
tax payers for theij experiment in
socialism?

To the Man who Took my
Advice, Sold His Cotton and
Paid me when his Obliga
tion Came Due La& Fall.
Is the man I will divide the last
Pea in the dish for his promise
to pay I can depend on until fall.
Yes! He values his obligations
More than the chance for
cotton to rise when it can fall.
He’s the man the world is looking to
Today, for he can be depended on to help
You when you are about to fall.
It’s dangerous to finance a crop
And then be told that you will be
Paid after you fall.
Where there is a will there is a way,
And the way is to respect your
Obligations by paying them in the fall.
Then you will have friends that
Will stake their all and stand by
You until another fall.
To the man that paid, it’s unfair to
Suffer on account of the fellow that
Ignored his debts last fall.
Even if it’s only part you can pay,
It’s appreciated and helpful to
both if paid early in the fall.
If all had paid a part the - •
Merchant could have been able to
Furnish supplies till another fall.
Well, we all made mistakes
And together in a hole we have <
Gone, to suffer untill another fall.
But it’s never too late to do right,
So pay part now on the promise to be
Cared for untill another fall.
Bea Prodical Son. Come back
With your cash if we have got to
wait on you ’till another fall.
Honesty is the best policy after all, ■ ,•
So listen to the fellow that furnishes ’M
Your supplies untill another fall.
Others may try to lead you another way,
But often times they are gone
When you need them in the fall.
It’s risky to gambol on a stranger’s
Advice at the expence of your
Friend who earned you until fall.
For the stranger you cannot find
After you and your friends are
Both in a hole later in the fall. 1 * ■
Help your neighbor to lay down
His strife and rally to the right V*.
as we will all suffer till fall.
Spend your cash with the fellow you
Are riding now on the promise, ,
He will carry you ’till fall. * L
For when the merchant is broke the
Big talker that tells you how to do
Will not sell you supplies untill fall. ..j.. &,
Then realize who vour best friend is V
And has been and take care of him
So he can carry you ’till fall.
Farmers need the merchant in the
Spring and the merchants need i f.
The farmers in the fall.
To the fellow who says ignore your
obligations to your friends is dangerous
For he won’t sell you supplies till tall.
Now it’s all come back to the man
Who has stood to you, he is the man
To get a consideration m the tail.
Now, all being in the hole together
Let us quit talking and go to
Work for the better next fall.
The government is not going to
Feed us. We have got to work
For it or get it until next fall.
To the few that paid me last fall, J
My plows and hoes are
Yours until next fall.
To those who have not paid me anything
I will divide so long as my creditors
Will allow me until next fall.
To those who have not paid me naything.
Why not spend your cash with me, you are
Ahead of the game already until next fall.
Now after all there is a meaning iC *
To every verse of this rhyme, j
And it’s no time to joke until tall.
But excuse these verses, .
We just want to tell our friends
How we feel until fall.
