Not strange for the Studebaker because the hubs are
of fine, close grain tough, strong and treated with a
secret sealing solution that is weather resisting.
Notice the hubs on the next Studebaker you pass on the
road you’ll find they are not split or checked like the
ordinary wagon.
And in these hubs are set the famous Studebaker slope
shoulder spokes.

We sell the Studebaker because we believe it is the big

GEORGIA IDEAL STATE
FOR POULTRY RAISING
More Poultry Will Help Solve Meat
Shortage
Georgia is an ideal state for poul
try, yet we are importing from 60 io
75 per cent of the poultry and poul
try products we consume. It is al
most impossible, at the present time,
to buy good fresh eggs in Georgia.
The reason for this deplorable condi
tion is simply because we have been
neglecting our chickens. In the past
it has been a simple matter to get
fresh eggs and good eating chickens
at reasonable prices. Therefore, it
was cheaper and easier for most per
sons to purchase what they wanted.
While the demand is constantly in
creasing, the supply is growing small
er. Many poultrymen have gone out
of business because of the high price
paid for grain compared with the low
price received for eggs. As chickens
have brought a good price on the mar
ket many farmers simply robbed their
own roosts and sold nearly all the
stock they had. Mr. Hoover has ask
ed you to eat more poultry and save
beef and pork for our soldiers. Yet
in order to eat more we must raise
more. It is the patriotic duty of ev
ery family that has room to raise a
few chickens. It is not necessary to
have an elaborate house for poultry
but if. must be airy and have an abun
dance of fresh air and sunlight.
There Is a great shortage in all
kinds of Ineat. The Food Adminis
tration realizes that one of the quick
est methods of improving this condi
tion is to raise poultry, as the time
taken to reproduce and mature is com
paratively short. Mr. Hoover has,
therefore, asked all farmers to in
crease their flocks and also asked
every individual that can to do his
bit and raise a few chickens. Chick
ens may be raised in the city and
town as well as in the country. If
the husband has not time to care
for the birds, then the wife or chil
dren will find pleasure as well as
profit In doing so. Many of the table
scraps that are thrown in the garb
age cans should be producing eggs
and meat if fed to chickens.
If you are willing to assist the Food
Administration, which will be helping
our soldiers and, at the same time,
assure yourself of fresh eggs and poul
try at cheaper prices, do it now. If
you have never kept chickens and do
not understand feeding, housing, etc.,
write to Prof. J. H. Wood, Georgia
State College of Agriculture, Athens,
Ga„ for "literature or assistance.
AMERICAN ARMY RIFLE SUPE
RIOR TO THAT USED BY HUNS
American troops are armed with a
faster firing and more accurate rifle
than used by the Germans, according
to our expert designers, manufactur
ers, and marksmen, says a statement
by the Bureau of Ordnance. One mil
itary critic and vsriter claims the Ger
man Mauser does not permit the most
skilled user to get more than 50 per
cent of the firing speed of the modi
fied Enfield adopted for the United
States service.
The superiority claimed for the
American weapon is based on three
counts: Quicker firing as a result of
bolt-handle design, easier and quicker
sighting as a result o f sight design,
greater accuracy of bullet flight re
sulting from bullet design and great
er mechanical accuracy of chamber
bore.

SECOND ATTEMPT
ROB FARMERS BANK
Jenkinsburg Bank Dam
aged by Explosion
NO MONEY WAS SECURED
The second attempt within five
weeks to rob the Farmers Bank
at Jenkinsburg was made Wed
nesday night. Like the first ef
fort, the burglars failed to ob
tain any money.
The vault door was blown open
but the burglars failed to force
the inside door to the vault in
which the money and securities
are kept. The powerful explo
sives used shattered (he brick in
one side of the building, it was
stated.
The explosion is said to have
been heard about 11 o’clock by a
negro man, but he took it to be
the report of a gun and did not
give the alarm.
Officer 0. If. Knowles was coll
ed to Jenkinsburg to make an
investigation. The safe crackers,
as in the previous attempt, trav
eled in an automobile. Officers
are working on a clue.
The first attempt to burglarize
the Jenkinsburp bank was made
on Wednesday night, March 6.
OUR COMMUNITY’S PART IN
THE WAR
(Mae Childs, Jenkinsburg Public
School)
Every community must take a part
in the war. Why not have our commu
nity take a leading part in the work?
There are many ways in which we
can help win the war. We can help
feed the soldiers, help in the Red
Cross movement, buy Thrift Stamps
and first of all we must boost it.
We all know this war is depending
on the farmers. The mild climate we
eujoy and the fertile lands which will
produce as nearly everything as can
be produced in one place places (us)
our community in the garden spot of
the world. She must exert all energy
to raise corn, wheat, oats and ather
foodstuffs, educating her sons and
daughters, and giving God the praise
of her very heart, to pay the debt of
gratitude she owes the vorld in this
great struggle for Freedom and De
mocracy.
We can help by buying Thrift
Stamps, but even more important
than his we should be willing to give
a few quarters to Uncle Sam. By be
ing a Red Cross member we can knit
sweaters and many useful things to
protect their bodies from the cold.
Above all things there is something j
we enjoy far greater than our soil j
and climate. It is the friendship of a
very highly cultured and Christian
people.
We should with all means and by
all ways possible strive to give our
boys and the Allies who are in the
trenches fighting our fight for Demo
cracy and decency, the most possible
enjoyment and furnish them with
the material to win the war.

Health
About
Gone
Many thousands of
women suffering from
womanly trouble, have
been benefited by the use
of Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, according to letters
we receive, similar to this
one from Mrs. Z. V. Spelt,
ofHayne, N.C. “I could
not stand on my feet, and
just suffered terribly,' *
she says. “As my suf
fering was so great, and
he had tried other reme
dies, Dr. had us
get Cardui. . . I began
improving, and it cured
me. 1 know, and my
doctor knows, what Car
dui did for me, for my
nerves and health were
about gone.”
TAKE
The Woman’s Tonic
She writes further: "I
am In splendid health ...
can do my work. I feel I
owe it to Cardul, for I was
In dreadful condition.”
If you are nervous, run
down and weak, or suffer
from headache, backache,
etc., every month, try
Cardui. Thousands of
women praise this medi
cine for the good it has
done them, and many
physicians who have used
Cardui successfully with
their women patients, for
years, endorse this medi
cine. Think what it means
to be in splendid health,
like Mrs. Spell. Give
Cardui a trial.
