VETERANS REQUEST STATE PAY PENSION Tifton, Ga.—Georgia’s Confeder ate Veterans, at the concluding ses sion of their 44th reunion, adopted a resolution requesting their pen sions be paid with state funds only. Federal funds, they said, should be used to pay pensions to veterans’ widows included in recent extension of qualifications. They asked an increase in their pensions from S3O to SSO a month, and urged Governor Rivers to main tain a separate state department to deal with affairs of the Confederate soldiers. The veterans voted to accept an invitation to reunion next year at Gettysburg with the Grand Army of the Republic, but only if they are allowed to carry the Stars and Bars. The Union veterans, at a recent convention, voted that “such reunion have in view only the flag of the United States.” GA. 7-MONTH EXPORTS RISE Exports during July from the Georgia Customs District totaled $2,- 071,541, as compared to $2,136,626 for the same period last year, re cords of the Atlanta office of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce revealed Saturday.

THE JACKSON HERALD, JEFFERSON, GEORGIA BRIEF NEWS ITEMS To Finish Grant'* Tombj Work Stopped 40 Year* New York.—They’re finally going to put the finishing touches on Grant’s Tomb. For forty years—since work was suspended “temporarily” in June, 1897—the huge domed sacophagus looming over Riverside Drive has been the mecca of tourists and ad mirers of the former President. During those four decades, the tomb has lacked the landscaping and surface carving envisioned in the original design to soften the effect of the severe, classic structure. tt t t Florida I* Harvesting Largest Orange Crop Washington.—Florida,, which had a bumper grapefruit crop last year, was reported picking its largest orange crop in history this season. The crop reporting board placed the state’s orange crop at 24,000,000 boxes, exceeding last year’s record by 1,500,000. Grapefruit production in all states this year will be 25,455,000 boxes compared with 30,281,000 a year ago, it was predicted. Florida’s indicated grapefruit production was 13,000,000 boxes. Arrival of Triplets Too Much For Father New York.— Thomas Kelly, a motorman and expectant father, dashed into the Lenox Hill Hospital. “What is it?” asked the first nurse he met. i “Triplets,” she smiled. “Wow,” shouted Kelly. He col lapsed into the nearest chair. The infants, two girls and boy, weighed a total of 16 pounds. They were the first triplets born in the hospital since it was founded in 1863. tt t t Experiment Station Is Making 23 Kinds of Muscadine Wine Griffin, Ga.—The Georgia Experi ment Station is experimenting with 23 varieties of muscadine grapes to determine their wine-making quali ties. The experiments began with 56 varieties in the station’s breeding vineyard, but 23 varieties were dis carded and 11 placed on the doubt ful list. The report states the discarded varieties were eliminated because of low sugar content, low yields and susceptibility to dry rot. At six months the wine was an alyzed for percentages of alcohol, sugar, total and volatile acids, and tannin. This will be followed by further aging with a two-year mini mum, the report states. 10 BKlhb YOU RELIEF IN MINUTES The Reason BAYER ASPIRIN WORKS SO FAST Drop a Bayer Aspirin tablet into a tum bler of water. By the time it hits the bottom of the glass it is disintegrating. This speed of disintegration enables genuine BAYER Aspirin tablets to start "taking hold" of headache and simi lar pain a few minutes after taking. YOU can pay as high as you want for remedies claimed to relieve the pain of Headache, Rheumatism, Neuritis, Sciatica, etc. But the medicine so many doctors generally approve the one used by thousands of families daily is Bayer Aspirin 15* a dozen tablets — about 1* apiece. Simply take 2 Bayer Aspirin tablets with a half glass of water. Repeat, if necessary, according to directions. Usually this will ease such pain in a remarkably short time. For quick relief from such pain which exhausts you and keeps you awake at night ask for genuine Bayer Aspirin. ■ V TABLETS / Virtually 1 cent a tablet Put a few pieces of charcoal into glass in whjch hyacinth bulb is planted. It will keep the water sweet. EXCHANGE NOTES News Items Of Interest Among Our Neighbors And Friend* Sells Quail to North Carolina (From Lavonia Times) Mr. A. B. Vickery of Lavonia, who has been raising quail for two years, sold this week a flock of seventy quail to a party in Charlotte, N. C. This is the largest sale of birds Mr. Vickery has had since he began the business. He has sold this year a lot to a party in Wash ington, Pennsylvania, a lot to a party in Atlanta and a lot to a party near Lavonia. Mr. Vickery became interested in this work some time ago. He finds the work interesting and also finds that quail require a lot of attention to raise in coops. The first hazard is in hatching. They are hatched in incubators. The next hazard is the mortality rate. But he has done well in the business despite the hazards. Quail raised in this manner will become rather tame but not like chickens. They will come near you and some will eat from your hands but they do not like to be handled. The wild instinct con tinues despite the domestic atmos phere. Rat Bed In Irish Potato (From Hartwell Sun) The Sun’s freak department (and don’t be so unkind as to say it ought to inclu4e the editors) got a-hold of one entry last week-end that we didn’t relish so much. Lee A. Fort son came down with a mammoth Irish potato he found hidden away in his grocery store that had been eaten out and made into a nice, warm bed by a man rat who pro ceeded to propagate—or, in other words, to rear a splendid family. And Bro. Fortson brought the potato down to prove it, full of little rats that had not yet opened their eyes to the glamor of the world. More Frills And Furbelows Should Be Added (From Moultrie Observer) We had “public schools” with a weak state subsidy for a time. But the public school was just a teaser to induce the patrons to put out money for tuition, for books, for school taxes and for box suppers. Now we have the free schools. All the money you want, all the books you want, all the school buses you want, and terms of as many months as you like. How things have been coming to pass. There is always something that can be done. Free lunches have not been provided. There are no cushions for the seats. If we had to go to school again, this would be one fly in the ointment. There will be equipment needed for the playgrounds, and swimming pools will have to be put in. They may introduce showers and thereby reduce the amount of home work. A radio will be needed and moving pictures will have to be installed.
