GA., MARCH 2, 1922 112 Candler Street Telephone No. 73 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.

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.

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- FRANK P. HOLI £DMONDS “FOOT-FITTER” Harry No. - 3 is made on an English last.

Subscription Price: $1.50 Per Year. 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. >ER, Jefferson, Ga.
