JUDGE W. E. THOMAS
VISITING IN APPLING
Judge W. E. Thomas, of Valdosta,
who is making the race for Congress
from the Eleventh District, has been
spending several days in Baxley and
Appling county this week in the in
terest of his candidacy.
In speaking of his race Judge
Thomas said that he was waging a
campaign on issues. That if elected
to congress he expected to make a
vigorous effort to aid his section. He
said that he favored a system of
federal market bureaus which would
disseminate among the producers full
information as to prevailing prices
for various commodities, details of
supply and dmeand and market in
formation n general. This he says
will enable the producers to dispose
of produce more ntelligently and thus
protect cotton and other crops from
the peril of speculation.
As a result of our revenue tariff
policy the people of this section are
forced to buy dear and sell cheap.
While this government is run under
a revenue tariff policy, the only tar
iffs levied, which in their nature are

protective, are for protection of the
manufacturers of the country, prin
cipally located in the north and east.
As a result the southern producers
have to pay tariff-protected prices
for what they buy of manufactured
articles, and are forced to sell their
own products in an open market,
practically at the cost of production.
Since the civil war the north has
been highly protected, while the south
has been consistently neglected.
Though this the north and east have
prospered and have been able to
forge ahead of the south in wealth.
If the producer is given the protec
tion he deserves and of a right be
longs to him, then he would and should
receive his just portion of the wealth.
Judge Thomas says the people of
the Eleventh District are becoming
awakened to these conditions and he
believes they stand ready to begin a
fight for these rights, and if he is
elected Jo congress it will be his aim
and purpose to contend for these prin
ciples until some relief is gained.—

TOM STRINGFELLOW
GAINS 22 POUNDS
RAILROAD MAN SAYS TANLAC
IS THE ONLY THING THAT
EVER HELPED HIM.
“If the people of this town only
knew what Tanlac had done for me
you would sell a thousand bottles to
morrow,” said Tom Stringfellow, a
well-known employee of the South
ern Railway, who lives at 126 East
Ninth Street, Anniston, Ala. Mr.
Stringfellow is well known in railway
circles and is on the Atlanta and Bir
mingham division. His many friends
will be glad to hear of his complete
restoration to health.
“I .suffered from stomach trouble
and indigestion for four years,” con
tinued Mr. Stringfellow, “and got so
I couldn’t eat hardly anything. I fell
off until I only weighed 119 pounds
and finally got so weak and run-down
I was on the point of having my po
sition. To tell you the truth I just
felt like life was not wroth living be
cause I just seemed to be getting
worse ail the time and nothing seem
ed to do me any good.
“I would have awful pains in my
back and kidneys and could hardly
sleep. Two hours each night would
be about all the sleep I would get.
Most always after eating I would
have gas on my stomach and my
heart would palpitate. I would get
weak in my limbs and have dizzy
spells and would have spots in front
of my eyes.
“About a month ago I began read
ing about Tanlac, and heard the rail
road men talking about it. Several
of my friends had taken the medicine
and said it was a fine thing for stom
ach trouble, so I decided to give it a
trial. The first bottle helped me so
much I kept on taking it and have
just finished my fifth bottle. When I
weighed the other day I kicked the
beam at 141 pounds, and was so sur
prised I turned around to see if some
one was not standing on the scales.
Yes, sir, that’s a fact, I, had actually
gained 22 pounds and feel like a well
man again for the first time in four
years.
“Tanlac helped me right from the
start, and before I had finished tak
ing the second bottle I got so I would
eat and sleep and work as good as
anybody. That’s what the medicine
did for me any everybody who knows
me will tell you the same thing.
Why, I can just eat anything now
and indigestion never bothers me a
particle any more. I can sleep good,
too, and feel just fine in every way.
Speaking of eating, my grocery bills
have gone up to almost double.
“Just to show you what I think of
the medicine I bought a dozen obt
tles today in order to always have a
supply on hand. I wouldn’t be with
out it for anything in the world.”
Tanlac is sold exclusively in Doug
las by the Union Pharmacy; in Willa
eoochee by Quillian’s Pharmacy; in
Nicholls by the Johnson Pharmacy;
in Pearson by Drs. Joe and C. W. Cor
bett; and in Broxton by J. H. Rod

Peanuts For Oil
And For Swine
' -John R. Fain, Professor Of Agronomy,
Georgia State College Of Agriculture.
That there Is now at least a limited
opportunity in the production, of pea
nuts for oil for those who are not In
a position to graze the peanuts oft
with hogs, is unquestioned. This will
certain last as long as present mar
ket conditions in oil prevail.
It the producer of peanuts can con
tract ahead for 75 cents per bushel or
above, he can figure a profit of some
thing like 15 cents per bushel based
on 40 bushels per acre at average
cost of production. If contracts can
not be made ahead for a definite price,
wherever possible, the farmer should
be in a position to graze the nuts off
with hose, in case the price of nuts
at harvest time, does not make it prof
itable to put them on the market.
Estimates for the profitable produc
tion of pork can be based on 200
pounds of pork per acre. There are a
good many reports of as much as 1,-
000 pounds of pork per acre on pea
nuts, but 200 pounds can safely be
taken as the minimum. If 600 to 800
pounds of pork can he obtained it will
give a larger profit than peanuts at
75 cents sold to the oil mill.
One of the main differences between
grazing hogs and selling nuts to the
mill is the maintenance of the fertil
ity of the land. This is a most im
portant factor and it should be clear
ly kept in mind that where hay and
nuts are all removed the land will de
preciate in crop-producing power.
Where the hogs graze the peanuts the
land should increase in crop-producing
power.
Livestock Campaign
Quite Successful
Milton P. Jarnagin, Professor Of Ani
mat Husbandry, Georgia State
College Of Agriculture.
The campaign for more and bet
ter livestock which has been conduct
ed in Georgia by the College of Agri
culture in co-operation with the rail
roads, proved as great a success as
could be hoped for. Practically the
whole state was included in the itin
erary, every line of railroad being
used. About 175 stops were made by
the exhibit cars, the arrangement be
ing to make two stops a day. About
175,000 people visited the exhibits and
heard the speeches made by the ex
perts accompanying the exhibits.
All those who saw the exhibits know
more today about what pure-bred live
stock is, what different breeds are
and their adaptability to local condi
tions than they ever knew before. Un
questionably many have been led to
desire pure-bred animals and many
have already determined to have such
types of animals as their foundation
for breeding. The ultimate outcome
of the campaign, therefore, will be a
large contribution to the improve
ment of livestock, the influence of
w hich will continue indefinitely as the
effect of better breeds develops from
year to year.
This campaign would have been im
possible without the assistance of the
railroads. They joined most heartily
in the undertaking.
The exhibits of home-grown feeds
added conclusive arguments in favor
of the livestock industry in Georgia.
In fact, the conclusion which the cam
paign enforced with no room left for
doubt, is that Georgia affords splen
did opportunities for livestock grow
ing.
Farmers Cautioned About
Phosphate-Lime Fertilizers
W. A. Worsham, Jr., Professor Of Ag
ricultural Chemistry, Georg,a
State College Of Agriculture.
Requests have come to the College
of Agriculture for information about
the value of phosphate-lime which is
being advertised under attractive
trade names, and, in a way, to indi
cate that the soil requirements for
phosphorus and lime can be obtained
very cheaply in this way.
The Department of Agricultural
; Chemistry of the College makes the
following statement: “Prom their ad
! vertisement the reader would be led
to believe that the material is differ
ent from the finely ground phosphate
I rock, commonly known as ‘floats.’ The
1 descriptions are such as would easily
lead the farmer to believe that the
lime in the phosphate material is oa
' pable of correcting the acidity of the
i soil—the purpose for which lime is
used. There are only three forms of
1 lime which can be used for correct
ing the acidity of the soil, burnt lime,
slaked lime and ground limestone. No
other form of lime should be consid
ered by the farmer for this purpose.
The particular material which is be
ing advertised to supply both phos
phoric acid and lime is a low grade
: phosphate rock finely ground. It con
tains a relatively high percentage of
, iron and aluminum which is objec
tionable. The lime contained in phos
: phate rock and acid phosphate is of
no value for correcting soil acidity.
“Any one contemplating using rock
: phosphate should write the College for
, a circular recently Issued on the us*
* of ground rock phosphate."
