BLOCKER JOE HILL HALL FIGHTING STATE SCHOOLS Appropriations Chairman in Execu tive Session Seeks to Have Univer sity and Its Branches Elimi nated from Bill. Atlanta. August 5. —Out of the dis cussion which has resulted from dis covery that the appropriations com mittee of the Honse of Representatives has entirely cut the State military de partment out of al money for mainte nance, which if it goes through, would mean the elimination of a State Mili tary Department and the office of. Ad jutant-General. except an empty hon orary title, there has come to light some even more startling revelation of things, which transpired in the ex ecutive session of the committees. Chairman Joe Hill Hall, according to statements from a number of the committees, sought also to practically abolish the Universtity of Georgia, the State College of Agriculture, the Geor gia School of Technology, the Geor gia Normal and Industrial College at Milledgeville and Valdosta, the college at Dahlonega and the State Medical College at Augusta. That these insti tutions have been saved is said to be due entirely to Herman Swift, mem ber of the house from Muscoge county, who was hurriedly summoned to the executive session of the appropriations committee and fought Chairman Hall to a finish. It is stated that the elimination of the military department from the ap propriations committee’s reported bill is due entirely to Mr. Hall's position that there is no need for such a de partment, and his elimination of all military appropriations from the House bill. This, it is stated, came af ter the fight over all the higher insti tutions of education, which Mr. Hall sought to eliminate, in toto, from the bill. Mr. Hall took the position in the committee session, it is stated, that the State Constitution does not pro vide for appropriations for the univer sity or any of its branches, and, there fore, they should not be included in the bill. Representative Thomas Du- Bose was ruled off his feet by Chair man Hall when he made the motion to include these institutions and, that having been done, Mr. Dußose sought Mr. Swift, then attending another committe meeting, and appealed to him to come at once to the appropriations committee meeting and help save the university and its branches. Mr. Swift repsonded, made the mo tion to include the appropriation for those institutions enumerated, in the amounts asked for, and was ruled out of order by Chairman Hall. Mr. Swift promptly appealed from the ruling of the chairman, carried his appeal over whelmingly against the chairman and pressed his motion to a vote, which was carried.

BROWN, State Commissioner of Agriculture Discusses Topics of Interest to Georgia Farmers. Atlanta. Ga., August Bth. —If the Georgia legislature adjourns without enacting the pending market bereau bill, it is going to mean a serious sit uation for many Georgia farmers Who have loyally responded to their coun try’s call and grown more food crops and feedstuff's than ever before in the history of the state. It isn’t a question of consumption, for there will be need for every pound of food produced for man and be'ast. But it is an imperative problem of proper distribution —of getting sur plus food to the markets that most need them. Georgia faces the problem of prop erly marketing more than $200,000,000 worth of foods and feedstuffs. The department of agriculture has planned an efflcent system for bringing about the most satisfactory distribution. The successful operation of this sys tem will require both legislative au thority and funds to meet expenses. To meet these expenses the legislature has been asked to appropriate from the funds now paid into the state by Georgia farmers, less than one-for tieth of one per cent, or 25 cents on the SI,OOO of the value of the Geor gia produce to be handled. There is real danger that in the rush incident at the close of the ses sion, this bill may not come up for ac tion at all, which would mean it would have to go over to next year. If the farmers of Georgia want this bill passed now, so that they may be assured of efficient assistance in the marketing of their food crops, they should get busy at once and assist up on action on the part of their legisla tive members. It is their bill and their interests which are at stake, and there is not a day or even an hour to lose. While Georgia has fairly well solved her fall food problem thru the splendid efforts of her farmers, there is still the late fall and winter to be provided for. Every Georgia farmer in every sec tion of the state, should plant some wheat and oats this fall, and where possible, also some barley, - rye and oats. There are approximately 500,000 plows in Georgia. We ought to plant at least an average of two acres of wheat to each plow. Even with the low average of ten bushels to the acre, this would give us the grand total of 1,000,000 acres with a splendid aggre gate production of 10,000,000 bushels of wheat, or enough to feed the entire state. The Georgia Department of Agri culture urges every farmer to get busy now planning to put in his winter wheat and oats. Pick out the best ground for them and prepare it well. Don’t stop with two acres, but plant all you can properly take care of Available wheat should be saved for seed. Instead of grinding It, buy flour and plant the seed. The market bureau of this department will be glad to assist any farmer in disposing of any surplus seed wheat he may have, or in procuring seed for him for plant ing in October. But by all means plant wheat. Put it on your best acres and fertilize well. It will return you an abundance in the spring that will profit you well for the attention and labor given it. UGH! CALOMEL MAKES YOU DEATHLY’ SICK. Stop Using Dangerous Drug Before It Salivates You! It’s Horrible. Y’ou’re billious, sluggish, constipated and believe you need vile, dangerous calomel to ctart your liver and clean your bowels. Here’s my guarantee! Ask your druggist for a 50 cents bottle of Dod son’s Liver Tone and take a spoonful tonight. If it doesn’t start your liver and straighten you right up better than calomel and without griping or making you sick I want you to go back to the store and get your money. Take calomel today, tomorrow you will feel weak and sick and nauseated. Don’t lose a days’s work. Take a spoon ful of harmless, vegetable Dodson’s Liver Tone tonight and wake up feel ing great. It’s perfectly harmless, so give it to your children any time. It can’t salivate, so let them cat anything afterwards. — (adv’t.)

Atlanta, Ga., August 7. —Ex-Gover- nor John M. Slaton's prompt action in slapping the face and clouting the jaw r of Representative Seaborn Winn, of Hurt county, who viciously attacked the ex-governor for entering the hoiifce of representatives last week is still the subject of comment among mem bers of the legislature. Without regard to their political or personal relations with Mr. Slaton, either past or present, the legislators generally approved what he did. They put themselves in bis position and at once realized that their impulse would have been the same as his. The rules of the house and senate extend the privileges of the floor to ex-governors, among others. As soon as Mr. Slaton left the house of repre sentatives, Representative Winn arose to a question of personal privilege and declared that he desired to resent for every man and woman in Georgia the insult offered to the house by one who had exercised his privilege to desecrate the house by his contemptible pres ence. Instantly the house was in an up roar. His remarks were expunged from the record and he was given the most stinging rebuke administered to a legislator in the memory of any man in either branch of the ganeral assem bly. The resolution adopted unani mously by the house declared that his ill-advised and venemous remarks and conduct were an insult to the decen cy and intelligence of that body. Hearing of the incident, Ex-Gov ernor Slaton proceeded to the Kimball House and found Representative Winn and called him a contemptible coward and skunk, and mauled him until by standers interfered.
