Macon. Ga.—“l feel like an en
tirely different man from what I did
six months ago, and the credit be
longs to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi
cal Discovery. I felt sick and mean i
all over, every bone in me ached. I
had a constant sharp pain in my
right side, my food soured on my
stomach and caused an unpleasant
coating on my tongue, a sick-head
ache and occasional giddy spells. I
had tried my best to get right but
failed, so felt quite discouraged when
I first began to take the ‘Discovery’
six months ago. I feel so confident
that nothing could have changed a
man in my sickly condition to a com
paratively well man, but the ‘Golden
Medical Discovery.’ I am still tak
ing it —more as a tonic now and to
cleanse mv system of every particle
of poison.”—J. H. Gassett, 749 Haw

WITH COUNTY AGENT BINGHAM
Testing Cows.
The farmers of Hart county will
ha,ve an opportunity to have their
cows tested for tuberculosis the first
week in June. Notice will be sent
out through the mails, giving the
places where cows may be assembled,
and the approximate hour and day,
so far as such a thing is possible.
Every farmer should have his
cows tested, and if they have tuber
culosis, of course they will be killed.
If they do not have tuberculosis, then
you will have great satisfaction in
knowing that the users of the milk
are not subject to chances of having
this disease.
Cows will be tested wherever 5 are
assembled, and there must be five
or more, not four or three. See your
neighbors, and be sure you have the
proper number at your place.
The cows will have to be assembled
on TWO occasions, one to make the
injections, and 72 hours later for
taking of temperatures, etc., to de
termine if the animal has tubercu
losis. The test cannot be made at
one assembly.
You do not have to have your cows
tested, but you do have to agree to
have the cow killed if she is infected
with tuberculosis. If the infection
is slight, then she may be sold for
beef. If the infection is too far
advanced, then the meat is unfit for
food, and the animal will be de
stroyed.
Poultry Sales.
The next regular poultry sale will
be Friday. The car will leave Hart
well at 10:40, load at Bowersville
until 3:00 P. M., and then go on to
Toccoa. No stop will be made at
Lavonia, because of opposition or
lack of support on the part of citi
zens there.
Prices will be announced in some
manner as far as possible, either
Wednesday or Thursday. You may
phone for prices Thursday night. On
deposit of 25c per person, we will
mail you a card each time giving any
necessary information regarding
sales from time to time. This mon
ey will pay for addressing, mimeo
graphing, postage, etc., so long as
it lasts.
We believe that the best way for a
farmer to receive better prices for
his products is through cooperative
marketing. This applies to poultry.
It is not a theory, but a fact of many
years standing. It is no longer an
experiment on most commodities.
The cooperative sale of poultry is
handled different from that of cot
ton, or grain, or peaches. The co
operative sales being staged now are
just a starter on what can be accom
plished when the people begin to
recognize cooperative marketing as
a sound principle. Cooperative mar
keting of poultry handles the pro
ducts with the least labor expense,
time, and the greatest efficiency. If
it does this, then it should receive the
support of all concerned. It will be
years before it receives this support,
even from farmers. Many farmers
are wafted from place to place by
the enticement of a few extra cents
occasionally offered by those inter
ested personally in buying and selling
the product, and in most cases ene
mies of the principle of cooperative
marketing because it cuts them out
of the pw>fits on a volume of business
done. Until the farmer learns that
his product is always going to sell
for LEAST it will bring, instead of
the most it will bring, under the old
system of selling, he is not going
to be permanently prosperous.
Burr Clover Seed.
We have the names of a few peo
ple who are willing to have you gath
er burr clover seed on halves. This
is a good chance for some to get
started with burr clover. Ask for
further information.
Chautauqua.
Hartwell has a chautauqua the
coming week. This is fine. It will
be a great benefit for the town. Ru
ral communities need something on
I the order of a chautauqua each year.
They need something which will
bring several communities together,
in order that the people may know
each other all over the county. The
i county fair has been the institution
■ which has heretofore done this. So
far it is the nearest solution that
| has ever been devised. Sometimes
j fairs do not fill the need, but if prop
i erly worked out, and supported by
I community leaders, it can meet the
I need. New ideas need to be incor-
I porated, however, from time to time.
Peaches.
Mr. Ralph Brown sent us a fine
j bunch of peaches last Sunday. You
bet they looked good! And tasted
i better. These peaches have been
sprayed. The extreme coloring of
, the fruit would indicate that arsenic
j had been on them. There were no
I worms. While we have not been in
j the orchard, yet we are satisfied that
| there are very few worms in the
■ whole orchard. That cannot be said
lof an orchard that is not sprayed.
So many people buy fruit trees from
I year to year, and never spend an
i other cent on caring for them. They
soon die. Peaches should be sprayed
I now for the control of brown rot
' canker, even though you care nothing
I for the fruit this year. If you have
I been spraying for two years, then
’ your trees are all dark and brown
• about body and limbs, with bark
| about dead. Take a chance to see
what your neighbor has done in
j spraying this year. Then make up
i your mind to do the job right an
other year.
Bean Beetles.
Bean beetles can be controlled by
I mixing one yound of calcium arsen
ate with nine pounds of lime, and
dusting the underside of the leaves.
Repeat in ten days to two weeks, ev
en though you do net see the beetles.
Get it in your head that the poison
will do more good PREVENTING
the appearance of beetles than it will

The Boy* Agricultural Club.
The Boys’ Agricultural Club of Al
fords school and Cokesbury have iield
a charge entertainment at each place
and made some money for local use
of the clubs. They propose.to use
this money for picnics, prizes, etc. It
is a good idea, and every boy should
have the encouragement of his par
ent to join a club. Nothing in Hart
county should oppose this, or attempt
to nullify it.
Bond Issues.
Congress, through the Bureau of
Roads, United States Department of
Agriculture, appropriates . large
amounts of money each year toward
the building of better roads and
highways. In addition quite a sum
of money is spent in educational road
work, through the county agents,
road specialists, publications, demon
stration trains, etc. Roads are pri
marily an agricultural problem. Good
roads should be the consideration of
every thoughtful farmer.
The question is before the farm
ers of Georgia today. It concerns
the whole state, but the attitude of
the farmers will largely govern what
will be done. Therefore the farm
leaders should think seriously here.
And the leaders are the influential
farmers of the communities. Other
states are building good roads. It
is less an agricultural problem than
heretofore, because the life of busi
ness in many small towns depends
on good roads. And yet since the
outcome of a road building program
in Georgia depends largely on what
its farmers do', it is possible that we
may have a road building system that
will overlook many of our agricul
tural communities. In fact the ten
dency has already started that way.
It has been generally considered that
the farmers of Georgia are opposed
to a bond issue for roads, on one
ground or another. The business of
the state which depends on good
roads are going to do all they can to
get for themselves good roads, even
though the farmer cares not a hang,
nor puts out any effort to get them.
The road question is a cooperative
one. It is not an individual propo
sition at all. Even though a man
never rides on a road, yet it is his
business to hety build roads. The
prosperity of Georgia largely depends
on our transportation system, and
the user or nonuser of roads is
equally concerned. The road system
of Georgia should be built on a
statewide plan. The interests of ev
ery section should be considered in
the program. Yet, because of op
position from the farmers in many
places, there is coming about a
grouping of districts in Georgia, in
which systems of roads will be built,
without relation to other sections.
These districts are being formed
around business centers, not agricul
tural centers, because agricultural
centers are opposed to road build
ing programs.
The result is going to be that the
more thickly populated sections of
the state will issue bonds and build
roads, and outlying counties will be
left. These outlying counties will
be unable to issue enough bonds later
to build roads, and they can never
get the support from those places
which have already built roads.
It appears that farmers of Georgia
should support a well planned bond
issue for a road building program.
Unless it is done, many of our rural
counties will be left outside, with
never any chance to get inside. Some
counties will be like school districts
which refuse to consolidate. Con
solidation will take place all around
them, and later they will be left
where they can get in as they would
like. We may find our road situa
tion in the same shape. The farmers
of Georgia, .who will benefit mostly,
should give this road building pro
gram serious considerafion.
Dry Weather and Roughage.
It may rain some day. If it does
rain enough to make a good corn
crop this summer, we may have a bad
cotton year. The ground is depleted
of moisture, and much rain is neces
sary to make a crop from now on.
Every farmer should see that he has
plenty of acreage planted to corn,
beans, peas, sorghum, etc. A good
cotton crop is worth little by itself.
It just helps us out of a hole which
we voluntarily got into this spring,
and year in our lives have simply
been wasted. What we need is more
supplies. Cotton will do well to car
ry itself, without making it carry the
corn and hay crop on the farm.
John D. Rockefeller.
Mr. Rockefeller, in a recent maga
zine article, states that people profit
little from having things done for
them. He says that it is what people
do for hemselves that profits them.
Refering to agricultural leadership,
he states that too often farmers
want to have things done for them,
and are not disposed to take hold
and do for themselves.
There is danger in that. A com
munity which gets to where it does
not want to do for itself, but wants
to sit by which ceitain individuals
do all the planning and scheming
will not profit in the end. It may
for the moment boost the standing
of the individuals who assume the
entire responsibility, but jt is not
community development. It may
look like such for a while, but it is
political tactics in analysis, and the
people follow because of political in
fluence. Character has not been de
veloped in the people.
Too often farmers want the coun
ty agent to do for them, instead of
giving assistance to the leaders of

“Blue Hole” in Ohio
Has Odd Properties
Castalia springs, or "the Blue Hole,"
is at the westerly edge of the village
of Castalia, alrout nine miles south
west of Sandusky, the Cleveland Plain
Dealer reports. A good-sized subter
ranean stream suddenly bobs up to the
surface, through deep orifices in the
limestone rock which underlies the re
gion. As Cold creek it flows swiftly
across three miles of Erie county and
into Sandusky bay.
The phenomenon Is said not to be an
unusual one in limestone countries.
The “Blue Hole,” the spring Itself, Is
a beautiful, crystal-clear, very nearly
circular pool, some thirty feet across
and quite deep. Constituents of the
water are lime, soda, magnesia and
Iron, and though the pool is extreme
ly cold It never freezes. The stream
is not much affected by floods and
droughts, and the first grist mill in
northwestern Ohio was -operated by
the creek, close to the spring, in 1810.
Several small coins, dated in the
fifties, and the remains of an old
flintlock musket were all that remain
ed with the bones of a pioneer found
in a hollow tree on the Missouri Val
ley River bottom near Hamburg,
lowa. It is believed he hid in the
crevice to escape Indians and was
unable to climb up to the entrance
hole from the inside of the tree.
the community who will do the work.
We have never minded work, and
keep at work at all times, yet there
is nothing permanently good for you
if you try to shun responsibility and
expect paid leadership to do for you.
Regular Income*.
Have you a regular income from
cows, hogs, or hens, or some other
source? If you have not then the
chances are that you are in poor
shape. You can never get anywhere
by a one crop system. A few out
standing fellows may do it but not
every ball player can be a Ty Cobb
or Babe Ruth. You may think you
can, but you cannot just the same.
Just because you have a neighbor
who has done good on cotton alone,
and just because he stands around
and blows off all sorts of theories
about how you ought to do, does not
mean that you can do it. Sometimes
the greatest drawbacks to a commu
nity are the few fellows who have
made good on a cotton alone pro
gram. They cause their friends and
neighbors to try the same schedule,
and it fails. It has failed. It has
failed here in Hart county on 2,000
farms out of 2,500. You can hard
ly find a home now that has a nickel
to spare, and this fall the same homes
will have little to spare above the
debts. Now this may sound harsh.
It may not be the proper way to
say it, and the way it is said may
cut too much, but folks, it is the
truth. If you are looking for facts,
you are obliged to admit it. What
Hart county needs is a regular in
come.
