O The time to begin saving money is when you are young. Any man can accumulate a fortune during a life of seventy years, by saving a few hundred dol lars every year and wisely investing his savings. O An Ocllla man of an inquiring turn of miml the other day stood at the monument and counted seven ty-seven automobile* in sight at one* time. It was his conclusion that, people still have money to do what they want to do. —Ocilla Star. O Losing Money. Hie farmers are not the only ones that have lost money this year. We appreciate the fact that they are hard up against it during these depressing times, and believe that with proper management tiny will work out of their present, plight all right. But others have lost money, also. In discussing this question, the Moultrie Observer says: “Read the advertisements of newspapers. Take note of the announcements of merchants that they are offering their stocks of new fall and winter merchan dise at “half price.” What does that mean? It means that merchants got caught out. They looked for good business and bad business came in stead, Now they are trying to get from under. They ■will have to take a loss. They cannot sell at half price and come out. They will sell, in many cases, for less than they paid for merchandise. This loss follows other losses that came lust season. They have many accounts on their books. They ure mak ing slow progress in collecting these accounts. There are very few lines of business that do not register losses Instead of profits these days.” If the old saying is true that misery lores com pany, the farmers can know that they have plenty of company in these days of financial depression.

THE BEST IN GROCERIES & MEATS Watson-Glover Company ' 'RHONE 'BO/ ** ; - And Com Only 40c a Bushel The conflicting reports sent out from Atlanta about the sale and price of liquor has caused Bro. Mc- Whorter of the Winder News to get confused. Bro. Mercer, the king Bee of the prohibition cause, an nounced only a few days ago that Fulton was the wet test county in the state. Then a report was sent out from someone else in that city stating that the price of liquor had dropped from sls per gallon to $2.00, causing the blockaders of the mountains to quit the business an go to doing something else. These reports have caused the editor of the News to Insert the fol lowing notice of inquiry in his paper: “There Is said to be a slump in tlx* price of mountain dew. Will Bro. Townsend of Dablonega, please quote us the latest price?” Yes sir, with pleasure. Since the big corn crop has matured the price of pure liquor has ad vanced and now selling at from $2.50 to $.1.00 per gal lon, and no one, not even a preacher, can get it for a cent less. —Dahlonega Nugget. Money Is Becoming Valuable Two years ago money was very cheap. That was the time to save it. The time to get hold of all val uable things Ls when they are cheap. Those who saved their money two years ugo are realizing now that It has twice the purchasing power that it had at that time. In other words, every dollar that was laid away then is worth two dollars at the present time. Now is a good time to buy property if you have -the money. Dollars will buy twice as much property at the present time as they did two or three years ago. Tlie mistake that most of us made was In spending our dollars when they were cheap, and now, when they have become valuable and other property cheap, we have not the dollars to take advantage of the op portunities that present themselves for making good investments. The time of all times in which to save money Is when it is cheap and likewise the time to in vest money Is when it is valuable. Now is a good time to invest. 0 The Christmas trading has begun. It will not lie ns large this year as usual, yet our people always have some money to spend for Christmas. O Editor Rucker, of the Alpharetta Free Press, says he wants to cuss.
