Carrollton, Ga., March 9 1911
Had you noticed how much clean"
er Carrollton appears, thanks to our
City Fathers.
The orderly and sober conduct of
Carroll County’s First Tuesday
crowd is commendable. We have
the best county in the state anyhow.
Owing to the sessions of the
Southern Commercial Congress this
week, Atlanta and Georgia are large
ly in the public eye and mind. This
Congress is a very important and
influential body and calculi, tad to
exert a most salutary influence.
President Taft and ex-President
Roosevelt will be among the distin
guished speakers. Many of our
citizens are purposing to attend the
Congress.
Every enterprising citizen of the
county should be in Carrollton on
Friday, March 17th, by 8 o’clock
a. m. The Agricultural Train will
reach our city at that time and will
remain several hours. This train is
a veritable college on wheels, and
everywhere in the state is being en
thusiastically welcomed and great
good is being derived from ,the ex
hibits of live-stock, poultry, machin
ery, etc., and from the addresses of
the distinguished experts on lines of
especial interest to the farmers.
Carrollton will doubtless witness the
presence of the largest crowd for
years in her borders. The oppor
tunity to see and to hear, that the
occasion presents, should certainly
be seized upon by all.

petitioners are their successors in office,
which fact is shown on the minute book of
Carroll Superior Court of the July Special

Atlanta pluck has again triumph
ed. The i $600,000 needed for the
Y.M.C.A. Building has been raised
with several thousand dollars to
spare. This shows what can be
accomplished by persistance and
united effort. This example of what
pluck and energy and determina
tion can do should stimulate the
enterprising people of Carrollton to
unite their efforts to realize enter
prises that have been mentioned
repeatedly in our columns as neces
sary for the best growth and the
future prosperity of our city. Let
us unite and pull together for them
and keep at it until we get them.
That is the Atlanta way.

somewhat shocked that good man

he announced his fitness to di6

ularly upon the question of forgive
ness to his enemies, he said he for

him, “except Johnny Smith.”
John had played him such a trick
nbout the sale of a rertaioicow that
the farmer declared nothing should
make him forgive hhn. Impressed
by the exhortations of the clergy
man and moved by fear of the eon-
sequences of dying unforgiving and
unforgiven, he turned to the minis

the difficulty: “All right. Jest as
you say. If 1 die 1 forgive him,

look out!”

Tailevrnntl was. I lie greatest di
plomatist of hi.- day. Ilis father
was a military officer,: and the boy
would no doubt have been educated
to the same profession hut for an
accident which befell him m child
hood. Afler the fashion of the
time, lie was intrusted to the care
of a woman pomp miles awav from
home. Whi.le in her charge his
foot was dislocated hv a fall. It
was not properly cared l’or, and his
parents did not become aware of
the fact until it was too late to cor
rect the error. The abnormal
strain brought upon the other foot
soon induced a lameness in that
also, and the boy thus became a
cripple for life. This seeming mis
fortune determined a change in the
plans of his parents for him, and
ss a result the name of Talleyrand
lias become one of the most fa
miliar among the great; ones of
modern history.
The Quick Hog.
In these days the American pig
makes a speedy journey from farrow
ing lied to scalding tub. and the aim of
‘lie Judicious feeder is to add constant
ly to the flesh acquired while suckling,
bringing the hog up to 250 to 460
pounds as early and on as Inexpensive
feed as possible. The young animal
will naturally put on weight; iflore
cheaply than an older one. and gains
after ten months cost considerably
more per pound than those made ear
lier. A pig which is being fattened
should gain from one to two pounds a
day and weigh alive 250 to 350 pounds
when ulne to twelve months old.

BLOOD, BONE
and TANKAGE
FERTILIZERS
A cheap fertilizer is the most expensive item a farmer uses on his farm.
It is a tax that he levies upon himself and that requires no bailiff to collect.
He pays tribute to it in wasteful sums with every leaching rain, and when the
drouths strike his crops and the critical fruiting season begins, he finds too late
that he has submitted to “taxation without representation.”
Our “Supreme” and “Southern Big” Brands are not taxes, but invest
ments that yield big returns in crops and enhanced values of land. They are
made of the highest class of Blood, Bone and Tankage, especially prepared for
quick, constant and continuous crop feeders. They do not leach out in the soil, but become
available for plant food so gradually that the plant is fed plentifully and systematically just
as it needs it. There is no waste.
Don’t consider the price. Our goods are as good as a guaranteed bond, and
promise just as safe returns. Read the experience of good farmers who used
them last year and found them to be the best they ever used. Call on your
nearest dealer for our 1911 Year Book and learn more about it.
“Supreme” and “Southern Big” Brands always make bigger crops.
