Tire Hartwell Sun says that if you don’t know the
game you had bett-r stay out of the newspaper bus
iness. We’ll say he knows what he's talking about.
Rditor Rucker of Alpharetta, continues to talk
tAiout sliort skirts. Here is his latest: “(hie thing
about these short skirts we like- the girls can kneel
at church without* soiling them.”
O
Business along c rtain lines seem to be getting dull
in Hartwell. Hear the wall of Editor Morris: “Not
much doing in the liquor line in Hartwell here of late.
The local funnel club has lost its funnel, maybe.
O
Editor Bacon says he has a crib containing 11,36i
feet tilled with corn, and wants to know what it's
worth. It's not worth much in Madison, hut if Ed
itor Townsend had it up at Dahloncga it would be
very valuable.
O-
Women are required to pay {Kill tax this year the
same as the men. We all have to pay one dollar for
the privilege of being a tax-paying, jury-serving, of
fice-running, voting citizen of the old commonwealth.
Come on, Indies, it may not be worth it, but you’ll
have to pay it.
O
Editor Harbor, of Commerce Observer, takes a
rather pessimistic view of the human male. Hear him:
“Women are fast appropriating everything that be
longs to man. It is an easy task. Men are afraid
of women. Rather than oppose them the men give
iu. Perfectly simple.’’
O
Editor John Shannon thinks that because Judge
l.andls resigned a judgship to accept the place of base
ball commissioner that he is evoluting downward.
It depends upon the angle from which you view the
proposition. Which is the better proposition: A
judgship at $7,500 per year or a baseball job at $5O,
000 per year. Honest now, John, which would you
take.
O
We have known for sometime that John Shannon
over at Commerce hud his eyes on the ministry. He
went over to Lavonia not long since and tried tiis
hand on Rush Burton, exhorting Rush from the Bap
tist pulpit. Now, wo understand why this inkling to
get Into the pulpit on the part of our Commerce
toother. Here it is: “Billy Sunday has just closed
a six weeks revival, or series of meetings, as the case
may he, at Spartanburg. At the last service, the
thousands present presented the evangelist with
twenty-two thousand six hundred and fifty-four doll
lars ml eighty cents.

A Year of Beginnings
Says the Moultrie Observer:
‘1922 will he a year of beginnings.
This is worth repeating many times.
Business will begin to move this year.
Men will lie looking for new locations.
Manufacturing enterprises will lie starting up
again."
Barrow county’s Chamber of Commerce has been
started in good time to take advantage of every
opportunity to bring new enterprises to this city and
county. This is going to lie a year of rejuvenation.
Things are going to lie re adjusted this year prepara
tory to doing tilings. Just as the Observer says,
many moves will lie made. We ought to put Win
der and Barrow county thoroughly before the public
so that we may get our share of those who may de
sire to change their locations.
O
The Georgia Editors.
According to tho Quitman Free Press, Quitman and
Brooks county are making elaborate preparation for
the mid-summer meeting of the Georgia Press Asso
ciation. (Hie day he set aside as Quitman Day
and one day will lie known as Brooks county Day.
Tills will in* fine. We have always wanted to see
something of Brooks county’s farms and her famous
hams. Quitman never does things by halves. She
always goes the whole hog, and she can count on a
fine attendance from tLis neck of the woods. Editor
Daniel and his talented wife who by the way, is u
f
north Georgia product, are preparing to give the
press gang the time of their lives.
O
The Quitman Free Press suggests that instead of
“saying it with flowers,” you say it with brickbats.
That seems to lie the style these days.
O
Every father and husband should carry a good life
insurance policy. We know neither the day nor the
hour when we will lie taken away. A wise man will
provide for his loved ones. This is not an adver
tisement hut the honest expression of the editor of
this paper.
‘ O
Editor George Rucker’s attention is called to the
following words taken from the Crawfordville Demo
crat. We’ve been trying to make an optimist out of
George these many months. Now read and lie con
verted: Our idea of a real optimist is a fellow with
a seed catalogue and a garden hoe.”
O
Editor Shackelford, of Lexington, thinks turn
about would lie fair play and that the government
ought to pay us taxes on our losses, if we are to pay
taxes on our profits. Old style things, like “turning
about being fair play,” has gone out of style, Shack.
Don’t you know the Bible says that when you are
smitten on one cheek turn the other, also.
O
The (Meveland Courier is coming “purty night” tell
ing the truth when it says: “Say what you like, but
Senator William J. Harris is making a mighty strong
senator. He deserves your praise even though you
didn’t support him last time. He is the common
man's friend. We wish there were more like him in
the senate.
O
Miss Helen Pettigrew an auhurn-liaired, slender,
pretty miss, of 21 years of age, who loves jazz music,
who believes that women should have the right to
dress as little or as much as they please, who tielieves
in dancing, who believes that people should have the
right to drink beer and light wines, and who lielieves
that women should use as much paint and powder as
they please, lias announced her candidacy for governor
of Kansas on the above platform. We are expecting
Jack Patterson and John Howell to emigrate to Kan
sas and take charge of her campaign.

NO SUBSTITUTE FOR COTTON
THE MONEY CROP OF DIXIE.
A few years ago, iu conversation
with Mr. J. C. M a ness, Field Agent
of the State Board of Entomology, he
said, “You ought to begin to fortify
against the boll weevil, which is sure
to come. We have made extensive ex
periments, and tested out many varie
ties of eotton. and we have found Wau
namaker Big 801 lis surest cotton to
grow under t>oll weevil condition.”
I secured 10 bushels of the best
selected seed from Board of Entomolo
gy, which I planted and made iy 2 bales
per acre. I find what he said to lie
true; the weevil did come, and the
Wannamaker Big 801 l is a superior
variety of cotton. Others are trying
it, and the following quotations speak
for themselves:
“Mr. F. P. Holder: I raised over
tOO bales cotton last year; about ono
thiril of my crop Wanamaker Big
8011. I believe it~i* the best of all va
i-ii ties to grow under weevil conditions.
Will plant all my crop in your Wanna
inak-'r Big 801 l this year.—C .F. Por
ter.’’
“I made 40 bales Wannamaker Cotton
last year. I have been making cotton
over 40 years, and have tried many va
rieties, hut nothing 1 have ever tried
will come within ‘hollering’ distance
to Wannamaker Big 8011. After know-
ing it ns I do, I positively would not
plant any other variety.—T. X. Wright.’
“Planted part crop in your Wanna
maker Big 8011. I lost heavily by not
having the whole crop iu this variety.
Will plant all Wannamaker Big 801 l
this year. I have some parties living
with me, and the first condition in the
contract was, for me to furnish them
vith your Wanamaker Big 801 l Cot
ton Seed to plant their full crops,
which was mutual. —Claud Hancock.”
“I made 56 bales with four mules on
■ry thin laud last year. With com
mon cotton, would have made 35 to 40
bales. I had rather pay $5.00 per
bushel for Wanamaker than to have
some good friend to give me the aver
age planting seed. It would pay me
well to buy your cotton seed.—B. L.
Wright.”
“The Wanamaker Big 801 l Cotton
Seed I obtained from you to finish the
planting of my crop last year, made by
far the best cotton on the place. I
have been losing big money by not
planting this cotton heretofore. Will
plant entire crop in your Wanamaker
Big 801 l this year.—J. C. Hanson.
“I made 30 bales your Wanamaker
Cotton last year, with two mules. Could
not have done it without Wanamaker.
Surest variety I ever planted. Will
have no other. —Ed Wright.”
‘I can make 1-3 more of your Wan
n maker Big 801 l per acre than any
thing else I have ever planted.—J. S.
Echols.”
“I have been superintending farms
and looking after tenants, and my ob-

servation is that the average tenant
produces more cotton to the plow
where Wanamaker is planted by him
than any other variety, especially since
we have had weevils. I recommend
Wanamaker over all other varieties as
tly? best and surest cotton.—J. P. Ben
ton.”
“I made 20 bales your Wanamaker
n24 acres thin land. Wanamaker is
‘gona-maker,’ bound-to-maker’ and ‘will
maker.’ You cannot beat her for it is
the best of all. —H. J. Wright.’’
“Your Wanamaker Big 801 l Cotton
best variety ever grown on my farms.
—J. B. Patrick.”
“Wanamaker gives big turn-out. More
satisfaction gijnning for customers
where use Wanamaker. Rather gin
Wanamaker than any other variety.—
Paul Bluekstock.”
“The staple of your cotton is strong
and full inch in length.—H. I. Mobley,
Bonded Warehouse.”
Messrs. J. F. Harrison, Walter Chap
man, W A. L. Blackstock, C. M. Black
stock, J. W. Wright, C. M. Porter, G.
E Waddell, J M. Garner, 11. H. Tur
ner, C. L. Bailey, W M. Jenkins, J. C.
Blackstock, and many others are plant
ing exclusively Wanamaker Big 801 l
Cotton on account of producing most
to land. Early to open, big bolls, easy
pick, big ‘turn out’ at the gin, good
long strong staple at the warehouse;
therefore, making big gains over other
varieties at every point all the way
from the cotton patch to the cotton
mills.
The above is sufficient to show there
is no humbug in this variety cotton.
I have culled and cleaned these seed
with care, and with a good machine,
and it lias been great trouble to keep
them up anil ahead of the regular cot
ton.
You will find most of the early varie
ties of cotton have a very short staple
and will not measure up to the stand
ard ; but this is one good feature about
this cotton. I have grown it several
years, and it has stood the test every
year.
I have an offer from one firm to buy
my entire stock of planting seed. I
must let them know soon how many
bushels they may expect from me.
Therefore, if you wish to get some of
these seed, be sure to write me at
once the number of bushels you desire,
so I may hold them for you.
Don’t wait. Write today. A little
procrastination may cause you a big
loss.
PRICES—
-1 to 19 bushels, SI.BO per bushel.
10 to 25 bushels, $1.70 per bushel.
25 to 50 bushels, $1.60 per bushel.
50 to 100 bushels, $1 50 per bushel.
N. B.—Several parties have spoken
to me for planting seed. It is the
surest plan to make your request in
writing, so it will not be overlooked.
Write—write—write —write.
