Senator Watson Confirms
Charwe That Tariff Has
Not Helped Farmer.
Insolvency, bankruptcy, and hard
ships-,, among Amoriean farmers after
two 'years of Republican administra
tion and two yonrs of Republican tariff
legislation are admitted by Senator
Watson (Rep. Ind.) in interviews
which he has given to the 'Washington
correspondents of soveral newspapers
following his return to tho - national
capitol from a tour of hie own State.
Senator Watson, it is understood, in
formed President Harding of agricul
and recommended that the administTa
ttonftry to do something'to aRsy-the
dAtpisfactidn which he fouit/l rife
aiding; the farmers in that sootjdn, lie
(joi^irfiis all that Detpoeratsifiiyo'^iey'ti
eharging in those respects.
“The farmers of Indiana are not sat
isfied with their lot,” Senator Wotson
told tho correspondents. “They find
that they can not make farming pay
and arc unable to get sufficient help
at any proper wages, since tho indus
trial centers pay so lunch mofe and at
tract the young men from the farms.
“I consider .that the bonditions
among the farmers is tho biggest prob
lem facing this country. Statistics
show that 2,000,000 farmers liavo left
the fields in tho last year. This, condi
tion can not continue and tho country
remain prosperous. In my trips in In
diana I found many farms deserted
and hundreds of good, ones advertised
for sale. ’ ’
The prospect for improvement is not
bright, Senator Watson indicates.
“Before Congress meets I do not
doubt that this economic question will
be on us in greater force,’’ he said.
The farmers of the country have not
been helped pud 1 they haven’t been
liebdwinked by the Republican tariffs.
They know that far from benefiting
them, tliq Ford-ney-MeCwnpo^r law and
its predecessor, tho “agricultural tar
iff,’’ have simply exploited them for
the enrichment of Trusts and Com
bines. Tho farmer has got little or
nothing from tho tariff, but* the tariff
has got a good deal from the farmer.

. Old Tom Smith, the t
\ Lodger |
| Ey JOHN PALMER j I
(,©, 1922, Western Newspaper Union.)
Ma, .d’you know what folks Is say
ing?" demanded Augustus, | aged ten,
as lie came in from sphool. "That old
Mr, Smith's been in the .penltentlni'y."
“Shucks, child, don’t you paif no at
tention to that talk," answered Marian
Weaver. “Run along and clean up for
Slipper now."
Elsie, the otlief ctilld, eftmd home
with the same story. “Ma, Mr. Smith’s
been In the penitentiary. Somebody
recognized him.”
“So long as Mr. Smith pays his
rent 1 don’t care where lie’s been,”
answered Mrs. Weaver. "Go and tell
him supper’s rendy.”
It was three months since Mrs. Wea
ver had taken old Tom Smith ns a
lodger. The old nmn was very quiet.
He was n newcomer to Bridgeport.
Ho had drifted In one dny, made In
quiries about boarding, and Marian
Weaver had agreed to take him. He
had a job In the grist mill.
It was really a good thing for
Marian Weaver. Her liUBband had
died ten years before and she had
moved to Bridgeport from another
part of the state. She had had a hard
struggle at first, but she had opened,
a little shop next door to the house,
which now supported them coinfprt-
ably. Hence there was really mo necd
to take In old Mr. Smith.
He was all right, very fond of the
children, and used to take them out
sometimes anil spent a good' deal of
money on them. But lie was also arbi
trary and interfering, and they re
sented that.
Augustus was always at his mother
to get rid of the old man, but she re
fused. “It’s a home for him," she
said, “and I won’t have him turned
out. lie’s very kind to you children,
and you ought to appreciate him.”
"Aw, It’s like having a stepfather!"
muttered Augustus.
Marian Weaver colored. She was
not Ignorant of the malicious gossip
that was flying around. But then
tongues wagged everywhere. Neverthe
less, even those who were best dis
posed toward lier opined that she was
foolish to permit herself to be talked
about, and that It would be better If
old Mr. Smith did seek other quarters.
The old man came in to supper and
sat down In his place. The food was
served. . ,,
“Augustus, why don’t you keep your
elbows 1 In? What sort of boy d’you
think you’re going to turn out If you
cat like a tramp?"
Augustus muttered sulkily, and wotit
on with his dinner.
"Elsie, child, enn’t you eat wit'jfifut
smacking your lips every mouthfql you
take?’*-. ti ■
“Aw, what’s it got to do with' you?*’
demanded Elsie. i - ,
^.ugfistus v flared up. “Yes, guess
wejve had about enough of you,” he
shopted. “If you don't like the way
we eat, yotl can just get out of here.
Nobody asked you into our home, any
way.”
Old Mr. Smith rose , up treipbllng.
"When I was a ! boy, your age,” lip
stammered, “my father ’d have taken
me. Into the woodshed for less than,
half what you said.t*’me.”

SOME FACTS ;
ABOUT THE ELLIS
HEALTH LAW
AND THE NEED OF COUNTY
HEALTH WORK,
1. The adoption of the Ellis Health
Law in our county means tho employ
ment of a specially trained medical
bedlth officer who devotes his entire
time to. the business of looking after
health and sanitation. The law also pro
vides for the employment of public
health nurses and sanitary inspectors as
assistants to the health officer, where
desired. The nurses assist with the
school medical Inspection, help to ar
range for the correction of dofects, and,
with tho health officer, reach mothers
and infants, especially among the
poorer classes, through the medium of
child health centers, mothers’ classes
and home visits.
2. About 60,000 school children re
ceive medical inspection each year
through the operation of this law. About
6,000 with handicapping defects receive
corrective treatment.
3. The commissioners of health, op
erating under the Ellis Health Law,
gave free of charge 77,000 doses of anti
typhoid vaccine in 1922.
4. In 1921 and 1922, 8,600 sanitary
privies were installed by the commis
sioners of health. Dysentery, hook
worm and summer diarrhoea of infants
will not be controlled by any other
method 1n tho rural districts.
6. There is annually in Georgia a
great sacrifice of human life on the
altar of indifference. During 1922, 715
deaths were caused by typhoid fever,
411 by diphtheria and 584 by malaria.
In 1921, 1,230 infants under two years
of ngo died of dysentery and diarrhoea.
During their hours of heroic effort to
establish new life in this world, more
than 500 would-bo mothers made the
supreme sacrifice.
6. These and many other lives might
have been saved if well organized
health departments, well manned by a
well equipped personnel, had been es
tablished in each county of the state.
7. COST, This in dollars and cents
is about one-tenth of the actual amount
it saves the people.
8. If our county will adopt the Kills
Health Law and put it into operation
promptly, it is possible for the State
Board of Health to give financial as
sistance toward the maintenance of a
public health nurse, over a period ol
two years. Visit the State Board of
Health, 131 Capitol Square, and talk It
over, or write
GEORGIA STATE
BOARD OF HEALTH.

were alive. You're becoming the-worst

Augustus went out sblkily. ' Elsie
went on with her dinner in delight.
Old Mr. Smith said very little there
after.
Marian had to do some shopping.
When she came back she saw the
three sitting contentedly together on
the stoop. They were eating nuts and
raisins, which old Mr. Smith .lmd
bought for them.
“Say, Ala, he ain’t such a bad old
guy, after all,” Augustus said that
night. "An’ lie’s promised not to in
terfere at meals no more. Gee, I’m
sorry I threw that soup at him. Say,
Ma, you’re not in love with him, are
you?”
"Why, what an Idea, child!” ex

huskily. “I guessed It would be after

So many people in Georgia have
•hook ; worm and do not know It. So
many people have their health impair
ed from, this blood sucker and are ill,
due to being below par, owing to in
festation of hook w6rm that our State
,,Boarid’-of Health makes diagnosis of this
condition free of charge for the phy
sicians of tho State; not only this, but
they have just announced a new rem
edy for the eradication of this parasite.
It'' is 1 technically known as Carbon
Tetrachloride. It Is very much like
chloroform;' it is poetically harmless
where It lg chemically pure and'.given
as directed; by the State Board 1 . ,oi
Health. It. ig- as nearly a specific as
if . is possible for a remedy to be; no
preparation of the patient is neces
sary, no purgative necessary to be
given after the dose, as the remedy
itself Is a purgative. It does not taste
bad, and Is given In a little water; il
does no harm even if you have no hook
worm. The remedy is now in stock
and is furnished the physicians free oi
charge. If your child is pale, lifeless,
complains of pain in the bowels, is
restless at night and has other symp
toms of worms, have your family doc
tor see it and give it this reYnedy. Ii
he is not sure of the presence ol
worms, got him to send the State
Board of Health a small piece of the
child’s stool and you will get a report
right back telling you if the child has
worms. This is possible because the
worms are constantly laying eggs, and
by taking a small portion of the ac
tion of the bowels and preparing it
properly, like It is done by the State
Board of Health, It is easy to see the
eggs. Eggs of different kinds oi
worms are not alike, and the micro
scope tells the expert trained eye ol
the worker what kind of worms the
individual has. This examination, as
well as the remedy, Carbon Tetrachlo
ride, Is free.
Manufactured Goods Not
Always the Most Expensive
One of the experiment stations re
cently sent out a bulletin condemning
the boll weevil spray mixtures from
standpoint of price. From this same
station severay years ngo I obtained
formulas for orchard spray and a stock
tonic. In both cases I found tho mate
rials at wholesale in Atlanta cost two
or three times the prices quoted in tho
bulletins. Alhnufactitrers can buy and
mix cheaper than the individual, and
are in position to know when material
is good and to protect their purchasers
in this way. Recently several weevil-
poison concerns turned flown soveral
cars of calcium nfsehinte in Atlanta be
cause it was not up to standard in
quality.
Wo recently visited tho newest of
these plants, that of tho Woo-Vo Manu
facturing Co., in Atlanta. They have
a plant at 298 Marietta street, recoop-
oring barrels which they furnish with
out extra cost to consumers. They can
mix in large or small amounts most eco
nomically, can unload tank cars directly
into their own tanks by gravity, so they
can sell in small or largo quantities
economically. The same is probably
true of other mixing plants. So wo
say, buy your own materials or buy
ready-mixed, as you find most suitable
to your requirements. We do not seem
to see $90.00 worth of iron in a riding
cultivator, nor $5.00 worth of loather in
shoes; but in this day of specialization
We cannot do everything for ourselves.
