Corn Alone is
a Little Lame
Let Pig Chow Help
Minerals, needed for the hones of unborn, sucking and growing
pigs! Proteins needed for muscles,: hide, hair, nerves, and blood!
Not enough of either in corn.
Pig Chow supplies them. Result: bigger litters and bigger, faster
growing pigs that go to the market fully thirty days sooner than
corn-fed pigs.
Right around Hartwell are droves of hogs that have been raised
at a lower cost per pound of grain, because Purina Pig Chow was
fed. Phone or call.

THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., AUGUST 29, 1924
Our Weekly Smile
(By C.J.T.,Phila,Pa.)
The officers of Sears, Roebuck &
Co., of Chicago, are terribly wor
ried. They only did $118,334,218.-
00 gross business during the first
seven months of 1924 as compared
with $121,738,196.00 in the corres
ponding period of 1923. A decrease
of 10 per cent. Montgomery Ward
and Co., also of Chicago, showed an
increase of 15.50 per cent; their
gross sales for the same period be
ing $84,378,840.00 as compared with
$71,928,928.00 for the first seven
months of 1923.
Let’s do a little figuring. At this
rate, Sears-Roebuck and Co., will do
gross business in
1924. Divide this by 48 states and
it gives us $4,226,222.00 for each
.state. Divide this latter amount by
148, the number of counties in Geor
gia, and we find that each county's
part is $28,555.55. Is Hart county
sending this much money to Sears,
Roebuck and Co., each year, when
it could be used to such a good ad
vantage in the county? If that
money is spent here in the county, a
portion of it, at least, remains here.
When you spend a dollar with a
home merchant, 75c of that dollar
goes to pay for the goods to the
wholesaler or manufacturer. 15c of
the dollar pays for the merchant’s
store rent, light, heat, taxes, etc. The
remainder, 10 cents, is the mer
chant’s net profit. This is also spent
in the county for food and clothing
for the merchant’s family. Every
dollar you send away to a mail order
house is gone for good and goes into
the pockets of millionaires who are
able to spend millions to keep their
sons, some of whom are murderers,
from being hung. Here’s some food
for thought. Think it over.
Ten years ago, in August, former
Kaiser Wilhelm appeared at a win
dow of his palace to acknowledge a
demonstration by a gathering of 50,-
000 German people. Addressing
them, he said:
“A fateful hour has fallen on Ger
many. Envious people on all sides
are compelling us to our just defense.
The sword is being forced into our
hand. I hope that if at the hour
my efforts do not succeed in bring
ing our opponents to see eye to eye
with us and in maintaining peace, I
hope that with God’s help we shall
so wield the sword that when all is
over we shall again sheathe it with
honor.
“War would demand of us enor
mous sacrifices in property and life,
but we should show our foes what
it means to provoke Germany, and
now' I commend you all to God. Go
to church, kneel before God and pray
to him to help our gallant army.”
Sometime ago, I was sitting at the
table eating string beans, beets and
other vegetables, topped off with
corn-bread and buttermilk [and some
buttermilk contains as much as two
per cent alcohol, so a Philadelphia
chemist informs us, if it is allowed to
stand in the sun for a few hours.
Now, don’t everybody try this at
once] and the thought came to my
mind, “you can get a fellow out of
the country but you can’t get the
country out of the fellow.” Oh,
how true that is. Corn-bread in
Philadelphia! I wonder if there was
another person, anywhere in the
city, eating corn-bread that day. I
simply can’t go back on my “rais
ing.”’ I like corn-bread because it
scratches my throat when it goes
down. Last fall I decided that I
wanted some black-eyed peas and I
went to a nearby grocery store and
called for some and the grocer said
that he had never heard of them.
I went to several other grocery stores
and finally one man said, “you’ll
have to go to South street if you
want black-eyed peas. You’ll find
them there.” South street is the
Decatur street of Philadelphia. I
went to South street. There I found
black-eyed peas, hog jowl, sow bel
ly, chitterlings, mullets and, in fact,
everything that sells well to negroes.
I bought my black-eyed peas and a
piece of sow belly and brought them
home and cooked them. Did I en
joy them? I hope to tell you I did.
Ben Turpin ays that he is done
with the whole cock-eyed world.
Ordinarily, a Republican would
say, “the Republicans will win.”
Now they have changed it to “Cool
idge and the Republicans will win.”
Prithee, tell me what flag does Cool
idge sail under?
A noted matrimonologist says that
marriage is five times more successful
than business. This is, indeed, en
couraging to a beginner.
Clark Howell offers some excellent
advice to Georgia voters when he
says:
“The responsibility is up to the
voter to send only serious-minded
men of ability and unselfish motives
to legislate for the state and the
people, and to keep freaks, petty
politicians and careless, indifferent,
reckless irresponsibles at home.”
That public school issue of The
Sun was what I would term a
“humdinger.”
It used to be, “nigger read and
run,” in certain sections of South
Georgia, we are told. Now, things
are changing and we find that the
chief of police of a northern city,
Trenton, N. J., has instructed his
men to shoot all negroes who cause
trouble. Read the article below,
taken from the Philadelphia Bulletin,
sent in from Trenton:
“For some months the race prob
lem has been growing more acute,
and a few days ago Mr. Labarre
found it advisable to issue orders to
the police not to hesitate to shoot
to kill if their own lives or those
of law-abiding residents were men
aced by Southern negroes who have
recently come to Trenton in large
numbers. These newcomers have
caused trouble. Mr. Labarre has
doubled the police patrol in the
Saue Tour Pure Seed To
Plant During Next Year
There are several kinds of seed
which are wasted in Hart county
every summer that could be saved
for next year's planting. The seed
that can be saved at home can be
selected from the best specimens
of fruits and vegetables, and there
will be no experimenting to ascer
tain what kind they are.* There is
always a demand for choice water
melon seed of the various varieties,
but there are comparatively few who
will take the trouble to save melon
seed. There is one farmer in a
nearby county who has been raising
rattlesnake melons for a long period
of years, anti permits no other va
riety to become mixed with them.
For this reason there is always an
active demand for the seed which he
has to sell, and quite often his stock
is exhausted before the planting sea
son ends. The melons produced
from seed are as fine and large as
they ever grow, and the flavor is un
excelled. The same thing can be
done right here. Select the variety
of your choice, and then permit no
other kind to be planted near enough
to become pollenized by the busy
bees. There are also several kinds
of vegetable seed that can be saved
in sufficient quantities to supply the
home demand, although very few
people will take the time to provide
supplies for the next year’s planting.
One leading Hart county farmer
down near Nuberg has his whole sec
tion beat on producing watermelons
because he takes care of the seed
from the largest and best melons
each year. Neighbors fail, but he
always has a good crop.
o
Coles Have Annual Reunion
Over In Fork Township, S. C.
We have read of the many family
reunions and the fine times they
would have and such good dinners,
but we think ours was the very best
ever. This was the annual Cole re
union held at Double Springs church,
Fork Township, Anderson county,
August 16 th.
The Coles and their kin and their
children and babies came from ev
ery direction and came early, too,
bringing the well filled basket. Geor
gia was well represented, also Ab
beville and Oconee counties, and last
but not least, Anderson county.
All present were sorry indeed that
old Uncle Tom Cole and his only
sister, Mrs. John Hembree, or Aunt
Em, as we all call her, could not be
with us. Everybody laughed and
talked and nursed the sweet babies
till dinner was announced ready to
carry to the famous Double Springs.
Table cloths were soon spread and
the good things were piled upon
them. A long, good blessing was
asked by Mr. Henry Cole, of Oconee
county. Then the good old time, to
eat your entire satisfaction and lots
left.
Most of the older people went back
to the church to rest and talk. So
music and singing was called for,
which all enjoyed.
Now, our next meeting will be
Friday before the 3rd Sunday in
August, 1925, at Double Springs
again.
Please make a note of this date
all who are concerned, Triends as
well as relatives, and paste in your
Bibles. We, the committee, are
planning for a big time next year.
Let everybody come with a light
heart and a happy smile and say it
sure was good to have been there.
So, here’s to the Cole reunion for
1925.

KELLY’S DREAM
About a week ago I was invited by
an old-time friend of mine
To come up to his residence and test
his beer and wine;
We ate a lobster salad and a lot of
other truck,
And drank each others health until
the hour of three had struck.
Well we drunk until we didn’t know
which was wine or beer.
Till our heads felt rather heavy and
our brains not very clear.
I got home; I don’t know how; my
prayers I think I said.
But anyhow, I was paralyzed when I
got into bed.
[The narrator then dreams that
he is at the gate to Heaven, where a
certain Paddy is arguing with St.
Peter about getting in. After this
argument the poem ends:]
“Hold,” cried Peter, “your case like
all the rest must first be tried,
You will have to show a passport be
fore you get inside.”
“But hurry up,” said Paddy, “or for
supper I’ll be late,”
And purposely he took his old slouch
hat and threw it inside the gate.
“Get your hat,” said Peter, “thou
sacrilegious lout.”
So Paddy went in and slammed the
gate and locked St. Peter out;
Then through the keyhole loud he
cried, “I’m master now ye see,
But I’ll give up Heaven’s gate and
crown if you set ould Ireland
free.”
I then awoke and found my head be
tween the bed and wall.
The sheets got tangled around my
feet —’twas that lobster did it all.

Because of this the modern paved g
