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 Used Cars R Cars of standard make and dependable quality when in good repair give better service than new cars of uncertain per formances.

Distributor Cadillac Cars “Ik House of Perfected Service” 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.— Baxley Banner.

GEORGIA, JULY 15, 1916 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 denberry; in McDonald, Loehridge & Lawton; in West Green, Mack’s Drug Store.

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."
