RACE FOR SPEAKERSHIP
GROWS INTERESTING
ATLANTA, Ga., May 31.—With the
opening of the legislature less than a
month away, the three candidates for
speaker of the house are entering the
last lap of their campaign, and the
race is by far the most interesting
topic of conversation among members
of the senate as well as the house.
N. F. Culpepper, of Meriewther
county, a leader in the house for sev
eral years and one of the steering
committee that put through the prohi
bition bills in the famous fight of
1915, claims he will lead the ticket oh
the first ballot, and his supporters
among the hold-over members of the
house express confidence in his elec
tion.
W. H. Burwell, of Hancock, who
served as speaker in the last two
Imuses, is admittedly Mr. Culpepper’s
strongest contender, although the gen
eral belief is that a majority of the
house oppose the re-election of Mr.
Burwell, and are divided between Mr
Culpepper and John N. Holder of
Jacksen, a former who is
coming back to the legislature and
entered the race for speaker after the
Culp. jcr-Burwell race was well un
derway.

“Never will use old style hulls again"
Mr. W. J. Smith, Cruger, Miss., is using Buckeye Hulls in the
daily business. He says “Buckeye Hulls are good enough for me.

■ Buckeye Hulls”. There are so many advantages in feeding

I that you will wonder hew you ev :r get •.viUi th:c4 style hulls.
They are all roughage- no lint —you ky.v exactly how much rough
age you are feeding. They do not clog cr flux the digestive tract.
They come in s. .•■ .y to ’’.and!?. Th./ take half as much
space in the born. They go .much farther. They cost several
, dollars less per ton. Try Buckeye ILy's and you will continue
1 to use them.
, To secure the best results and to ccve!; ? the ensilage odor, wet the hulh
thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is easy to do this by
1 wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any lima
• this cannot be done, v.’et down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
, feed the hulls dry, use only half cs much by bulk as of old style hulls.
