FROM STATE DEPART
MENT OF AGRICULTURE
J. J. Brown, Commissioner.
Atlanta, January 20 (Special)
Commissioner of Agriculture J. J.
Brown strongly advises Georgia
farmers to plant; an abundance of
food crops this year and to hold
their cotton acreage down to an ab
solute minimum. Mr. Brown bases
this advice l>oth on the cotton situa
tion generally, which involves a
bear raid apparently well capitaliz
ed, and boll weevil conditions which
in the curtailment of the crop.
“Just at present," said Com
missioner Brown, “the short sell
ing element is in control. There
s no doubt alnjut this fact and there
is no need trying to minimize the
effect of it. It is a contest between
the speculative short sellers and the
spot holders.
“It is impossible for us to tell
just at present to what extent the
spot holding movement will prevail
against this short selling campaign.
The short sellers on the exchanges
are using the argument that a large
acreage will be planted to cotton.
Everybody admits that the world
will need more cotton next year
than the South can raise. And yet
at the present time, w r ith no sys
tematic organization as yet per
fected whereby the cotton produc
ers can protect themselves in the
market, the only safe course for
them to pursue is to reduce the
acreage to cotton and plant an
abundance of food and feed crops.
“Under these conditions we have
no means of knowing just what is
going to come of the pr esent con
test ; but we do know that if the
producers go ahead now and plant
a large eotton acreage, the im
mediate effect will be to encourage
the speculative short sellers who
have already put October cotton
down to 20 cents and less for a crop
that is not yet planted.
“We hope and believe that the
cotton producers of the South will
perfect some systematic organiza
ion to protect themselves before the
speculators and their associates
have taken the situation completely
out of their hands. In any event,
whether they do or not form such
an organization, it is Iheir present
duty to themselves to reduce their
acreage in cotton and grow the food
stuffs of which the world is in so
great need and for which they know
in advance they will get an ade
quate and a compensatory market
price. ’ ’
JAMES ERNEST ADAMS
WRITES FROM FRANCE
Dec. 14. 1918.
Dear Mother and Father:
1 will take the pleasure of writ
ing you a short letter to let you
hear from me.
Mother, lain well and have be
ever since I left home and trus:
will remain this way as long as i
am in France. Ido hope you are
all well and enjoying yourselves.
I hope Lillie is getting on fine.
You all do not know how good 1
feel since 1 have heard the last
shell fire. You just ought to see
this country. It is ruined in
places—towns torn up until they
don’t look like they can be re
built. I never saw anything like
it.
Mother, I will be back some
time in 1919, but can’t say what
time for I am in the 28th division.
I have a heap to tell you all when
1 get back home. We are about
25 miles from Metz and would
like to see the place.
Tell Loy and Dewey to write
me as I would like so much to
hear from them. Well, I will ring
off for this time. You all pray for
me that I may get home safe.
With much love to you all, I am.
Affectionately, your son,
JAS. ERNEST ADAMS.

About Advics.
The worst thing about advice, db
serves a writer, Is that those who are
qualified to give it never do, and those
who insist upon serving you with a
full, seven-course table d'hote meal at
it, always prove to be the worst at
elicit.
KNOW THYSELF.
Ericsson, the scientist, refused to
attend a concert of his fellow
countrymen, the eminent violinist,
Ole Bull, because he believed that
there was no sense of music in his
severely practical nature. But on
one occasion, under the guise of
seeking instruction, Bull beguiled
the builder of our monitors into
listening to the voice of his instru
ment. The spirit of the Father
land swept through the room. The
days of childhood floated like clouds
of memory before the man of prose.
He heard the roar of battle, the
tramp of armies, the silver trump
of peace. Untold emotions whelmed
about him like the billows of the
sea. And when at last the music
ceased, he cried out, “Go on, Ole;
I never knew it was in me."
Brothers, there are chords in you
capable of response to the music
that makes heaven glorious. There
are whole sets of faculties in you
of which you are utterly unaware
until the creative breath sweeps
them again. Would you realize
your fullest self? “Rise up and
stand forth," “Stretch forth thy
hand. ’ ’ —Selected.

“Hot-Spot” and “Ram’s-Horn”

is the softness of power, the controllability of
asemates.
It is anew kind of power to many, brought to public
attention through the famous “Hot-Spot” and “Ram’s-Horn”
Manifold of the Chalmers.
For here the gas is heated, and “cracked-up” at the
throat of the carburetor by the “Hot-Spot” and then rushed
quickly via the “Ram’s-Horn” Manifold into the combus
tion chambers.
It is “toasted” so nicely, “pulverized” so fine, that the
instant after sparking there is well-nigh no waste of gas.
Little of power comes out of the exhaust. All the power
comes out of the rear wheels —and such pleasing, well
harnessed power, that your enthusiasm for driving reaches
anew peak.
