ELECTION RESULTS DEMOCRATS MADE SWEEPING GAINS The election passed off Tuesday. Bar row county cast 447 votes, the regulai nominees being elected in the county as well as all over the state. In H arrow county, the new county of Peach received 335 votes and 84 against it. It 1 seems that Peach county has been defeated in the state. Returns are coming in. Only 52 counties had made returns up to the hour of going to press. In these counties Peach county received 14,045, and against it 17,107. If this ratio is kept np over the state the new county will lose out by about 9,000 votes. In the national elections over the country, the democratic party has made sweeping gains. While the Unit ed. States Senate and House are still republican, the majorities are greatly decreased. Williams Cafe Served Belgian Hare Supper A representative of the News was invited to supper at the WillifTnis Cafe to a Belgian Hare feast and inciden tally to pass judgment on whether or notnot it was the best and most pal atable dish in the world, it being fig ured that hd was an epicurean of note Our opinion was that it was equal in toothesomeness if not in elegance with ithe best ever elaborated by a celebrated caterer. That’s our decision. A' friend of the Williams brothers had sent this Beginan rabbit on up from Griffin, Spalding county, the home of Prophet Snider, saying as how it was one of the finest dishes ever pre pared. The City Cafe has a reputa tion of serving good food, this fact is known to all tourists—this being the only cafe between Atlanta and Athens on the Bankhead Highway-and in ,his instance we think they lived up to their reputation. A number of oth er guests were present and all thor oughly enjoyed the feast. JUSTICE COURT JURY.

North Georgia is far behind last year in ginnings while the southern part of the state is way ahead. We give below some of the counties; County 1922 1921 Barrow 2,314 8,890 Banks 1,855 5,029 Clarke 1,765 6,163 DeKalb 206 1,657 Elbert 5,458 10,007 Forsyth 4,588 8,672 Franklin 7,797 18,159 Greene 103 683 Gwinnett 2,855 8,951 Hall 4,638 ,168 Hancock 437 1,184 Jackson 5,972 16,902 Madison 3,765 13,667 Morgan 38 5,855 Newton 655 4.280 Oconee 899 5,935 Oglethorpe 1,336 7,640 Walton 4,837 16,780 Randolph 13.1*74 9.861 Toombs 7.659 4,427 FROM THE JACKSON HERALD Mrs. Henry Fite and children spent the week end in Statham recently, the guests of Mrs. W. M. Fite. Mrs. Doss Wilhite arid children were recent guests of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Shields, in Winder. The farmers of this section arc sow ing a large ucreage this fall to oats and wheat, and this is the proper thing to do. With a short cotton crop, that is almost all picked, there was never a better opportunity for preparing to harvest a bumper grain crop next spring. The land is in good condition for plowing, and an early sowing will guarantee a greater yield. And a large grnin crop will mean much to the fi nancial condition of the people. If corn is scarce the* oats will come just at the opportune time, and if the peo ple of this county will raise enough wheat to supply bread, they can not rfealize how many dollars will be sav ed. Winder, Barrow County, Georgia, Thursday, November 9, 1922.
