Trained For The Job Efficiency! The twentieth century standard by which the world measures those selected to do big things. The MAN himself being satisfactory, the next thought is of his training and ability. Representing a great state like Georgia in the United States Senate Is a big thing—a full-grown ..ian’s job— if it is attended to properly. JOHN M. SLATON is a full-grown public man. His ability has never been questioned. Two decades of training in the service of YOU—the people—comprises an apprenticeship which should equip him for the office. SLATON served eight years in the Legislature—in the ranks. SLATON wag then twice chosen Speaker—unani mously—and served four years more. SLATON made a great Speaker—the best on record, •ay those who know—because he had trained for it. SLATON was then elected to the Senate, twice—and was elected President twice—unanimously both times —and he was a great President of the Senate —because he had trained for the job. SLATON was Acting Governor a short time. You remember how well he filled the office, temporarily. It was because he had been training for sixteen years. SLATON was then elected Governor, practically unanimously; not only because he was popular, but because his trained fitness had been proven. SLATON has carried out in full his legislate program in a year. He succeeded because he knew the job. He had trained for it seventeen years. Farmers and doctors are not made in a day. Neither are statesmen. They must learn. They must work up. They must train. SLATON has learned, he has worked up, he has trained. Efficient public service supplanted ephemeral bombast. Results have counted. Knowledge of duty well done has meant more to Slaton than public applause. YOU—the people—need a trained man for Senator. We offer you the best trained man in Georgia—JOHN M. SLATON. Examine the records. John M. Slaton State Campaign Committee ALFRBD C. NEWELL, Chairman J. A. MORROW, Secretary “SEND SLATON TO THE SENATE.” N. B.: Slaton has never been a candidate, real or prospective, for any place fbr wkich he had not prepared himself by long and earnest service, and for which he was not properly in line. Maybe that's the reason he has never had serious opposition. 1 HISTORY OF 6IRLS CANNING CLUB WORK IN GEORGIA The work of the girls’ Canning Club in Georgia was begun in 1911 when two counties were or ganized with a teacher in charge for two months. In Clarke county and Clayton about fifteen If Always Helps says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s tonic. She says further: “Before I began to use Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles of Cardui, 1 began to feel like anew woman. I soon gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework, as well as run a big water mill. 1 wish every suffering woman would give CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad, and it always does me good.” Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness, tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s tonic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing women for more than fifty years.

In 1912 eighteen counties were regularly organized with 2,200 girls enrolled. The average prof it was $24.88. The best field re corded in 1912 was made by Miss Fannie Wicker, Andersonville, Macon county, who made 3,000 pounds of tomatoes on her tenth acre, 750 number three cans and made a profit of $72. In 1913 Georgia had 28 canning clubs. The best field record was made this year by Miss Clyde Sullivan, Lowndes county, who made a profit on her tenth-acre 0f5132. This year 54 counties are organ ized. A larger part of these counties are in South Georgia. North Georgia has been asleep but she is waking up. In the organization of Clubs the county is the unit and work is carried on in direct co-opera tion with the county superinten dent of schools and his board of education, In counties regularly organized the teachers are instructed in plans of organization during their institutes. They organize the clubs in their various communi ties and help the members study the instruction sent out by Uni ted States Department of Agri culture and the State College of Agriculture. Since the plans of the work include help for the la dies as well, the community should have a committee of la dies to help the club members and lead in the work. During the canning season and at inter vals in the spring and summer a special teacher is in charge of the work and holds demonstra tions in different parts of the county. The county work must be fi nanced and this is done wholly or in part by local support. In va rious counties woniens clubs, chambers of commerce and pub lic spirited citizens have supple mented funds appropriated bv the county. From the first effort has been made to make all prizes represent library books, school equipment, canning equipment, etc. Among the individual prizes given in 1912 were scholarships to the Short Course at the Agri cultural College in Athens won by fifteen girls from twelve coun ties. Three of them were the gift of the Rome Womans Club, one of tho Bainbridge Federa tion of Clubs, another from the Association for the Education of of Georgia Mountaineers, of Sa vannah, and in Thomas county a scholarship was offered by the Boston Twentieth Century Club. The purpose of these clubs is not pierely to grow tomatoes, but to take care of all the fruit and vegetables on the farm. There is so much that goes to waste which if canned, would bring in quite a little profit. We only begin with tomatoes because they are easy to grow and can. We encourage the girls to can all other products that she can and and haye her' make a record of it in her record book. We also en courage the girls to use all these products that are needed, for the home table. We who live on the farm know that not every farm ers table is over ladened with good wholesome fruits and veg etables the year round. By can ning these products that would otherwise go to waste more va ried fruit is provided for the family. Girls now is the time to select your tenth-acre for next year and have it planted in cow peas or sorrfe other leguminous plant. If the barn yard manure is put on before spring and allowed to rot, there will be no danger of wilt from it. Do not use the same patch in tomatoes that you used this year because some of the diseases might be transfered to next years crop. And avoid using land where cotton has been affected by nomatode or root knot. One girl whose plot was near the house emptied all the w r ood ashes on her plot previous to planting.
