Many Have Signed With Cotton
Co-operators—Peanuts, Cane
And Grain Being Planted
LUMPKIN, March 10.—The farm
ers of Stewart county appear to
realize that co-operative marketing
is the proper plan; and quite a
number of them have readily s.i.sjn
erf the five-year contract with the I
Cottbh Grower- association. They i
believe that selling through this as
sociation will be the best method
ev’er'put into practice in Georgia.
They have lost no time in prepa: -.’
irig their land and anticipate plant- ;
ingat the earliest date possible.
Most of the year so far having
been addiirable for outdoor work,
the farmers throughout the county
haVe practically ail their land in
readiness, and many of them are
now planting corn.
Itjis understood that acreage will
be' increased this year in planting
the once -‘lowly” peanut; as prices
have been so good for the past sea
son for this product.
More attention is being civen by
the farmers of Stewart county each
year r BOW .to the planting of cane;
from which the best syrup on the
market is made. One of our farmers
having- made as much as (>OOO gallons
of syrup last year, for which lx
is finding’ ready market, is a lesson
to others in showing them what they
can do along this line, even in small
acreage.-

during the early fall and the crop
not having been really damage by the
few cold spells we have had.
SMALL CANTALOUPE
ACREAGE FOR THOMAS
THOMASVILLE. .Mard-. 10. - It
is not probable that there will be a
very large acreage planted hi anta
loupes in part of South Georgia this
: year, as ihe crop lad season brought
a good deal of loss to many of those
who had planted.
! There were not many planted last
■season around Thomasville, but over
in the MLgs district there was quite
a good acreage, and adjoining, in
■ Mitchell county, there were thous
ands of acres. The rains that came
' on just as the crop was being ship
i ped ruined it practically and the
< s suffered very much in
consequence. With such a large
acreage the markets wer overstocked
- ven before the crop was damaged.
’The fact that the year before when
the acreage was comparatively small,
it had netted the planters of canta
loupes fine returns, led others to go
into the business and those who had
made money to increase theirs and the
consequences were disastrous to
■ both.
M atermelon planting has just be
gun and it is said that the acreage in
that crop will be reduced also.
WANT CONSOLIDATION
QI ITMAN, March 10.—The meet
: ing of the board of education today
' was one of much interest, the most
important matter being the appear
lance of the committee from the Cate;
j and River Hill districts asking for
consolidation of the schools. The
board was very enthusiastically be
hind this move and will locate a new
building and help materially .with the
building plan. The board also voted
to help with the equipment of the
new Barney school very materialy.
A number of details, were disposed of
and plans for the coming yea r were
made.
DECLARE FOR SUNDAY CLOSING
MACON, March 10.—Pastor yf
Macon will unite in a campaign to
enforce Macon’s Sunday closing laws
>y aiming a "conscience attack” at
persons whom the miinsters declare
to be circling the law. Memebers of
th< mini terial union here have de
cided to preach special sermons
March 18, urging observance c" the
closing law.
BRITISH WORLD
TRADE FALLS OFF

they are the only things that throw
a little (light on a subject.
On Jan. 1 the number of applicants
for jobs at the regular British gov
ernmental employment exchanges
was 1,542,000, of whoip 1,199,000
were men and 225,000 were women.
Contrast this with only 10,258 in
France, 42,593 in Germany, 26,450
in Belgium, 37,268 in Switzerland,
"2,7000 in Holland, 354,238 in Italy
and 91,237 in starving Austria.
But even that doesn’t give you the
whole picture. You have to visual
ize the conditions in the big cities
where there are often 50 applications
for every job advertised; where
men lounge in droves along the prin
cipal streets, either openly begging
or peddling matches and shoe
strings.
Os the nearly 12 millions of work
people insured against unemploy
ment, 12.2 per cent are out of work.

ing for the Old Vets’ in two of the
best pictures of the year.
In two years the workers of Britain
have had cuts aggregating 50 million
dollars a week or two and a half bil
lion dollars a year. And they have
stood this largely because work was
so scarce and business was so bad.
To help the workless, the state has
given “unemployment doles” which,
it is estimated, have taxed the treas
ury about halt' a billion dollars a
year. Trades unions have drained
their treasuries in payments to the
unemployed and the ‘workless them
selves have exhausted all their sav
ings..
Thousands of working class mes
I are .in a state of chronic destitution

areas co-operative societies, private
J traders and business ' men generally
are facing ruin.

MINSTREL MONDAY
‘AT RYLANDER
I They call themselves The Saxo-
I land Five, the quintet being and com
|po d of Carl Cameron, Rody Jor
dan, Harry Corley, John Bourke and
Garner Newton, aftd of all the musi
cal acts on the stage today perhaps
none succeed in arousing the enthu
siasm these saxophone "specialists”
enjoy when they appear in the course
of the Al. G. Field Ministrels.
Not only do these musicians dis
pense mighty fine harmony during
thei r act, but they afford Al G.
Field audiences a brand of comedy
distinct and unusual in its charac
ter. Four of the five work in white
jface, while Rody Jordan, in black
face, ‘shakes’ a ‘wicked’ basso saox
. phone and provides more laughs to
i the breath than any other comedian
of his kind on the stage today.
I The Saxoland act was originated
by Carl Cameron, and has proven to
be one of the biggest hits of the
| current season’s production.
Al G. Field Minstrels are booked
Ito appear Monday for matinee and
