Cos. ing a telegram received fom Mr. J. H. Carmichael, in which he advises against the planting of long staple cotton. Last year there was a consid erable acreage planed to long staple. It is Mr. Carmichael’s opinion that the difference in price will not justi fy the planting of the long staple va riety of cotton. The wire was sent from Boston, where Mr. Carmichael is spending a few days on business, and is as follows: “Frank S. Carmichael, Jackson Ga. “Quantities long staple stored and consigned here for sale. Very little demand, due to mills changing from fine goods to coarse for government purposes. If war should end soon de mand would possibly increase next season, but aarry over might be suffic ient for demand. Under circumstan ces cannot advise planting long staple. At present difference in price wouldn’t be over five to six cents and possibly slow sale. „ “J. H. CARMICHAEL.

REPORT SHOWS HEALTH CON DITIONS GOOD IN ARMY CAMPS The health of troops in the United States continues very good, according to a recent report to the Surgeon General of the army by the Division of Field Sanitation. Admission, non effective and death rates are some what higher than last report, due chiefly to prevalence of influenza and bronchitis with complicating pneumo nia, in many of our northern camps. National guard camps, as a group, continue with remarkably low rates. Verv few new cases of measles and | meningitis have occurred.

Who travels the bridge of his nose? Can he use when shingling the roof of his mouth, The nails in the end of his toes? Can the crook of his elbow be sent to jail? And if so, what did he do? How does he sharpen his shoulder blades? I’ll be hanged if I know; do you? —Exchange.

TRAL GEORGIA POWER COM PANY ON CALENDER FOR HEARING THIS WEEK The case of Jasper county against Butts county, in which Jasper county seeks to secure a larger portion of the taxes arising from the Central Geor gia Power Company, was scheduled for a hearing in Henry county supe rior court at McDonough Wednesday. Various phases of the legislation has been pending for several years and has aroused much interest among the citizens of the counties at issue. Last April, it will be remembered, the case was taken up in Henry county superior court, and on account of cer tain evidence was non-suited by Judge Searcy. The case was then carried to the state supreme court, which over ruled Judge Searcy. This time the case will be tried on the facts, all le gal questions having been passed on, it is stated. Jasper county sets out that it is entitled to 46.6 per cent of the dam of the power company, and conse quently taxes on that proportion of the dam. At present Jasper county receives taxes on S3 1-3 per cent of the dam. The contention of Butts county is that the power house and all the val uable machinery is located on the west side of the dam and is, therefore, more valuable than the mere concrete dam on the Jasper county side of the line. Judge E. J. Reagan and Col. E. M. Smith, of McDonough, Col. W. E. Watkins, of Jackson, and Col. John R. L. Smith, of Macon, represent Butts county. Jasper county is rep resented by Col. G. F. Johnson, of Monticello. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DID NOT HAVE MEETING 13 Call For Later Date Will Be Issued By Chairman J. M.
