WHY JACKSON BANKING COMPANY STOPS OVER-DRAFTS Our reasons for doing so are: It is a violation of sound principles of good banking. It is opposed by all banking departments, both State and National. The best and most progressive banks do not allow overdrafts. It is a fertile source of misunderstanding, abuse, an noyance and loss. It is beStfor YOU and best for US that this custom be STOPPED. In this State under certain conditions, to overdraw makes one a criminal and subjedt to prosecution. It is allowing the overdrawer to use money belonging to other customers and the bank has no right to ex tend this courtesy. The laws of Georgia hold that a cashier is personally responsible for all overdrafts. IF YOU NEED MONEY call and arrange for it by note, but not by overdraft. Please keep your balance with us in such condition that you will at all times know the amount to your credit, and do not give checks for more money than you have on deposit. This will save us the annoyance of having to refuse your check and save you the embarassment of having your checks dishonored.

The regular annual meeting of the stockholders of the Pepper ton Cotton Mills was held at the office of the Jackson National Bank Wednesday, the 22. More than three-fourths of the stock was represented and the statement submitted was very satisfactory. The same officers and directors were re-elected for the ensuing year, no change of any kind having taken place. The paying of a dividend was deferred until January. Those attending the meeting were very much encouraged over the pros pects, and in view of the fact that the mill has a very large stock of goods on hand, they think they will be able to secure a considerable advance, in view of the higher prices prevailing for cotton.

S. department of agricul ture is about to embark on a spectacular campaign throughout the tick-infested region of the South to arouse farmers to take the steps that will stop the annu al tribute of $50,000,000 now be ing paid to the tick. Attractive ly colored and illustrated litera ture will be used in this work. As the result of the anti-tick campaign one-third of the tick infested area of the South, a re gion as large as the German Em pire has been cleared since 1906 but it is now desired to push the work much more rapidly than in the past as the country needs the meat the South could profitably supplv if the tick were banished and the South needs the dollars that will roll in when the tick goes out. The department stands ready to co-operate with any county that wishes to engage in this work. Agents of the Southern Railway's agricuitural depart ment will also aid the farmers in warring on the tick wherever possible and will co-operate with all agencies engaging in this work. / To become a uni- I versal favoriteA I Chero-Cola had to be\ I the perfect drink that\ I it is.
