K. S A LITTLE REPAIR WORK NECESSARY We left the office the oth- r night a little after dusk and started down Cotton avenue. We were in a hurry at this particular time (This in here for the boss to see) and as we stepped down off the sidewalk into the street our foot managed to hit the spot where a portion of the sewer had once teen and we stumbled almost directly in to the path of an automobile. Re gaining ou requilibrium we con tinued our journey and as we x were about to step up on the sidewalk from the street—lo and behold we found our foot on the edge of an other broken sewer. Fortunately we alighted on the sidewalk intact. As far as we are concerned the sewers need never be fixed because we know they are broken and hereafter we will watch our step. Some one sooner or larer is going to hurt themselves on the broken sewer tops and the city t o prevent this should have the sew ,, !‘s fixed. « sir » CONTRIBUTION FROM OUR CITIZENS (note: Each day we are going to run a stpry from a citizen which is supposed to be his pet humorous yarn) Mr Davenport, the postmanster tells us this one: An old gentleman who operated big farm, fell sick and was removed to the hospital. He had been in lhe institution only a short while whi n one of his negro workman dec 1 led to call on him. The negro came to the city and found his way to th< hospital; knocking at the door he inquired of the nurse if he could see his boss. “Well I tell you,’' said the nurse, “your boss is conva lesing and you can’t see him now.’’ “That’s all right,” said the darkey, “I’ll wait till he’s through.” * * * TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY Jonny bought some cotton Held it a little while, Thought held play the market And make a little pile.

This game has al ready become popular with a bevy of the young people of the town Hardly a night passes that the cr >wd doesn’t gather for a game at one or thg other house. We are told that the game in many respects res m bles poker, but is much faster, chips are used in the game. A husband of one of the “Michigan” addicts said he brough home home friends srid he brought home some friends wife had the chips over at a neigh bors, so they had to play 50 cents a game set back. If the ladies ever start playing for a little on the side many husbands will have to increase his wife’s allowance. r » * *, A REAL GOOD OLD FELLOW Had a long talk last night with Mr. Keith, the gentleman who is the Boss Fiddler of the North Geor gia Fiddlers Association. The old boy is just as interesting a talker as he is a fiddler. We asked him if he depended upon his fiddling for a livlihood. “No Sir,” he said, “I am a farmer and so are the rest of the troupe, but we have gathered cur fodder and as it is a little to early to sow wheat we thought we would get out the old fiddle and tour south i Georgia, and we have had a great FISH, OYSTERS, SHRIMP Fresh Water Trout Dressed Channel Catfish Red Snapper Fresh Water Bream and Perch Mullet Bottom Fish Fresh Apalachicola Oysters, Cooked Headless and Cooked Peeled Shrimp PHONE US YOUR ORDERS FOR SEA FOODS, WHICH WE WILL DRESS AND DELIVER WITHOUT ANY EXTRA CHARGE. ; Americus Fishand.Oyster Co.

Forsyth St. Liver Trouble Now a Known Cause of Premature Old Age Medical science knows that poi sonous waste in our bodies would actually cause death in a few days if not eliminated by Nature's proc esses. Because it destroys these deadly poisons, the liver is our most important organ—the body s wonder ful purifier. The liver prevents the formation of body poisons that cause diseases of the heart, kidneys, blood vessels and are chiefly responsible for prema ture old age.' When the liver becomes weak., the poisons are sucked up by the blood and hearth is broken down. Physi cians know that the liver cannot be regulated by drugs, but a safe Na ture substance has been discovered which will at once increase the vital THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER ~ HOW TO TIGHT SAN JOSE SCALE Directions for Using Lubricating Oil Emulsions From Federal Bureau FORT VALLEY, Oct. 22.—(8y The Associated Press) —In a cir cular issued today by the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture, co-operating with the Georgia State Board of Entomology directions for the use of lubricat ing oils emulsions in fighting the San Jose scale on peach trees, are explainci by the local laboratory ex perts. “Lubricating oil emulsions, whe ther made from the boiled or cold pumped formulas, or purchased from manufacturers,” says the cir cular, ‘‘have proven effective for the control of the San Jose scale on peach trees when used at a 2 per cent strength during the dormant season. The Bureau of Entomology has had two years experience in the use of these emulsions on the same peach trees, and there has been excellent control of the scale and no discernible injury to the buds, twigs, or collars. Lubricat ing oil emulsion is prepared from one of the following formulas: The boiled -formula: Small Quantity: Red engine oil, or oil of similar j grade . one gallon. * Water 1 .1-2 gallon Potash fishoil soap 1 pound Large Quantity: Red engine oil, or oil of similar grade, ». 30 gallons Water 15 gallons Potash fishoil soap .30 pounds. “When a small quanity is lo be prepared the ingredients are placed in a kettle and boiled for a few n iuntes until the brown scum which forms on the top, has disappear e-1. Then the kettle should be removed from the fire and the contents pump ed twice under at least 60 pounds pressure while still hot. The emul sion prepared in Chis manner should be used shortly after it is made. “To make the boiled emulsion on a large scale the folliwing equip ment is necessary—2 fifty gallon barrels, one 300 gallon storage tank, one 4 h. p. engine, one boiler, and necessary connections. This equip ment would be of use only to grow ers with a large acreage or a group of growers with small acreages. “When made on a large scale an'd pumped four times under high pceas sure, the emulsion will hold up sci several months. The method given for preparing large quantities of the emulsion is similar to that em ployed by large scale {Manufacturers Emulsions prepared in this manner will hold up during the entire spray ing season as long as the tempra ture remains above 15 f. success.” We inquired if hi? fid dlers read notes. “No Sir, the only notes we read are those that the bank send us notices about. Whan a player learns to read music notes he passes out of the fiddle class and becomes a violinist.” * * * ONE OF OUR SUBSCRIBERS SAYS “Se where a German doctor sav lip stick causes indigestion.
