PRICE OF FORDSON
TRACTOR REDUCED
Reduction in Price of Fordson Tractors
Made by Radio Message, Thursday
January 26th.
The first announcement of the big
cut in the price of the Fordson Trac
tor was made through Mr. Henry Ford’s
radio message Thursday evening, Jan.
26th, from the Dearborn Radio to Ford
dealers attending a Fordson Tractor
Industrial Show in Cleveland, Ohio. A
part of his talk, which was very plain
ly heard in Cleveland and surrounding
districts, is given below:
“It is certainly wonderful to sit here
in my office and say a few words of
greeting to you Ford dealers of the
Cleveland territory. The radio Is an
outstanding tribute to mail’s inventive
genius.
T “Manufacturing operations have un
dergone some wonderful revolutionary
changes duiing the past few years. We
are ail famliiar with the big improve
meiits in transportation methods, but
the oldest industry has been the most
backward in the acceptance or adoption
of the new and up-to-date methods of
doing things, and that is the farming
industry. Being a farmer. lam vitally
interested in all farm improvements,
and with this in mind, I have spent
years of time and millions in money
in the development of the Fordson trac
tor, which I really think is one of the
biggest possible helps to profitable farm
-1!1“As n general thing, the farmers have
bettered their financial condition dur
ing the past IK months, but the produc
tion costs of farm products are still too
close to selling prices to allow fair
margins of profit. What the farmer
must do to put his business on a pay
ing basis is to lower the cost of plant
ing. cultivating, and harvesting of his
crons. This alone will increase his
profits, and with this thought in mind
it has been our constant aim to lower
the price of the Fordson so that every
farmer in ttie land could afford to own
fin e Mi is a pleasure, therefore, to an
nounce through you Ford dealers that
we have today decided that the trac
tor price should again lie reduced, and
in considerating a reduction, natural
lv my thought has been to make it
possible for the largest number of far
mers to share in the benefits to he de
rive dthrough the tise of our tractor,
and consequently effective tomorrow,
January 27th. 1922, the new price of
the Fordson tractor will be $395, fob
Detroit. This is a cut of $230 off the
present price, and while in making
this big reduction we have taken upon
ourselves a gigantic task in the reduc
tion of manufacturing costs, still that
task, in my opinion, is not larger than
the farmer's pro idem of today, and I
am glad to do my part in bringing
about a period of increased prosperity
for tlie farmer. Your part is to car
ry this message to the farmer, thereby
enabling him to produce more with less
cst and shorter hours.
“I am glad to have had this opportu
nity of talking with you and you have
my best wishes.”

WINDER ATHLETICS
WIN FROM SOCIAL
CIRCLE A C, 38 TO 37
One of the best games of basket ball
staged on the local court was witness
ed by the Winder fans Tuesday night
when the Winder Athletic Club defeat
ed the strong Social Circle quintet by
the close score of 38 to 37. The fiist
quarter started in a rush with the
Winder boys shooting goals from all
angles hut were soon checked and the
first quarter ended with Minder eai
rying the big end of the score It to 8.
The usual light was maintainel through
out the second quarter and Winder
held the big end by 25 to 20. Social
Circle displayed sonic neat pass work
and checked the local boys and the
third quarter ended in a tie 33 to 33.
The fourth quarter started with more
fight than ever and Social Circle took
it back on the next tip off but were
overcome for the second and last time
bv the Social Circle five and at this
stage it looked as if another victory
was gone from here lint with tea sec
>nds to plav Harrison hooped one more
that gave Winder a one point margin
when the last whistle sunded.
The Winder Athletic Club has been
verv fortunate in winning a majority of
their games the High School hoys have
downed every team that they have met,
now the question is can the High school
down the Athletic club? If this game
could lie arranged we are sure that l
would be well attended by the fans of
Winder and something that they would
like to see. Here’s hoping that the
' U alingers can get together and arrange
i game in the near future.

LARRY GANTT RAPS
HOLLOMAN ON BOLL
WEEVIL ARTICLES
Says Washington Correspondent Is
Leading Farmers to Believe They
Can Raise Another Huniper
, Crop.
Larry Gantt, writing in the Athens
Banner, has the following to say regard
ing the Holloman letters on the boll
weevil.
I have recently talked with a large
number of our leading and representa
tive farmers from all over this section
and they ask me, through tlie Banner-
Herald, which papers these farmers
know are their friends, to reply for
them to the letters written by Mr. Hol
loman in the Atlanta Constitution
which they claim, are not only keeping
down the price of cotton but are en
couraging the planting of another bum
per cotton crop this year.
To read Mr. Holloman’s articles one
will be led to believe that flu* boll wee
vil does not really prevent the growing
of cotton and they will encourage thou
sands of farmers to plant the staple
who would turn to other crops did they
know the fallacy of the reasoning of
this writer.
I am told that Mr. Holloman is a cit
izen of Washington, D. C., and bis line
of work is to collect political news. All
he knows about cotton raising is what
he can imbibe from street talk. Until
he left the National Capital I doubt if
the gentleintn could tell the difference
between a cotton stalk ami a Jimson
weed or a boll weevil from an elephant
or rhinoceros.
To send such a man out to report on
crop conditions is like sending a plain
one-gallows Georgia farmer to report
a ball given tty the Four Hundred of
New York City.
Mr. Holloman’s letters lead the far
mer to the belief that he can continue
to grow cotton successfully under boll
weevil conditions and to read his ar
ticles the farmer who lias only a short
and speaking with the pest will be
guiled into the belief that he can con
tinue to raise bumper cotton crops by
certain incantations and hoodoo prac
tices.
Now I do not set myself up an ex
pert farmer, but I have lived a number
of years among the boll weevil infested
farms in Mississippi and owned farms
in that state. Without egotism, I as
sert that as to knowledge of both farm
ing and the boll weevil. I have forgot
ten more than this gentleman from
Washington can learn in a century by
viewing crops from the windows of a
parlor car or stopping at some palatial
hotel and interviewing kid glove tillers
of the soil, who earn their daily bread
by the sweat of the honest farmers’
brow.
1 say to our farmers to pay no heed
to the Holloman articles on the boll
weevil, unless you have made np your
mind to make a sure break for ruin and
bankruptcy. Every third year we have
a wet spring, and it is a waste of labor
and your hard-earned money to plant
cotton unless you have assurance of a
dry spring and summer.
After some thirty years’ work by
scientists no preventative has been
found for the pest, for you just can’t
poison or get rid of something that is
hid in a punctured boll or a square.
The weevil is here to stay, and to that
'fact make up your mind,
i I)o not plant over four acres of cot
! ton to the plow, for you can afford to
lose that. But if you are beguiled into
planting another bumper crop you had
os well turn over your farm to the sher
iff and pack for the poor house.
STATHAM HAS HOT
MAYORALTY RACE.
Statham had one of the hottest po
litical contests which ended Tuesday
in her history. Tiiere were two can
didates for mayor, and both men had
strong support. Messrs. C. B. Cham
bers and A. N. Porter were the con
testants. Both had many friends in
the town who worked early and late
for their favorite. When the votes
were counted Tuesday afternoon it was
found that C. B. Chambers received
101 votes and A. N. Porter received 70
votes, Mr. Chambers being elected by
■a majority of 31 votes.
Two councilman were elected at the
same time without opposition, Mr. B.
H. Grant and Mr. Perry. Statham’s af
fairs will lie well managed by these gen
tlemen.

able entertainments that has been giv
en in Winder in some time was the
musical one given by the Dixie Melody
Boys, made up of local talent A splen
did audience greeted their first appear
ance and everyone present enjoyed the
occasion thoroughly. The boys know
how to make melody and they know bow
o entertain an audience.
Col. George M. Napier
Makes Fine Address.
Col. George M. Napier, attorney-gen
eral of the state, made a fine and pa
triotic address at the school auditorium
last Friday afternoon. The occasion
was the celebration of Georgia Day bv
the public school, back by the D. A. R

LEXINGTON HIT
BY $20,000 FIRE
A fire, starting in a barn belonging
to 8. W. Avery burned the barn, three
stores and threatened to destroy the en
tire business section of Lexington, enr-
Ijy Friday, before it was finally gotten
under control by the volunteer lire
fighters.
Moore than $20,000 worth of proper
ty was destroyed, and much of tne
property destroyed carried no insur
ance. This is one of the worst fires in
the history of the town.
In the Avery barn there were about
five bales of cotton, a horse, mule, cow
and calf, all of which were burned.
The Reynolds store had insurance
on the building but carried none on
the stock of goods in the building. Th©

The tire is supposed to have started
in some hay that was stored in the loft
