Brandegee was one oi the . '.o ■ stalwart of the stalwarts in the Old Guard camp. Able and dependable, regular in word and deed, fol.o'v ir.g no political fads or fancies an 1 chasing no rainbows, Brandege ■ rose from the position of a trusted and respected member of the guard to a place of leadership in its af fairs. For the past half dozen yea s he has been on the very inside of all stand-pat political pow-wows and was looked upon as one of the three or four members in line for Old Guard leadership. While the more morbidly min led ponder the conditions that c>uld have moved a United States senator facing such a future to take the < nd A SPLENDID FEELING *■ That tired, half-sick, discouraged feel ing caused by a torpid liver and consti pated bowels can be gotten rid of with surprising promptness by using Herbinc.

Four years ago, when the Rc ‘ publicans resumed control of both, executive and legislative branches c.f the government, the chairman- I shin of this committee for an indefi i nite time seemed safely provided for. * Knute Nelson of Minnesota, tried and true par*; war-horse and a be liever in "the infallibility of the fathers," was chairman, William I’. Dillingham of Ver mont, a Ni.w Englander, safe and sane, conservative, stand-pat. Mor reassuring still, was Brandegec’s comparative vouth, his reasonable expectation of a long continued ser ! vice in the Senate. While both Nelson and Dillingham were old men . and might not last for long, Braude.

And at the top one the Renubli can membership of the committee, and by rules of seniority slated for its chairmanship, is none other than William Edgar Borah of Idaho, pro gressively minded individualist, who has steadfastly declined to play ball with the Old Guard and who has teen a thorn it its flesh for close to 20 years. Such a turnover in the lineup of EFFFICENCY EXPERTS —so called—are often deficiency experts in reality.

SOUTHERN PRINTERS, Phone 334 Americus and Dawson Meet in first Home Game By Albert Outler The 1924 football team of the Americus High school will make its j initial appearance on the Play i ground field on Friday, Oct. 24, at i which time they will stack arms against the strong eleven represent i ing the Dawson High school, (Game j ; will be called at 3 p. m.) This will be the fourth game of ; the season for the White and Blue. | Coach McKee, while making no I rash promises, reports that the i team is mai?.ng rapid progress, and lis developing into a gridiron ma i chine which is sure to bring results Dawson has an unusually strong team this year. Retaining quite a : few of its last year's men, it has ' developed some new stars of great i promise. One interesting bit of dope has j furnished food for much conjec ture.

Preparations for fighting this des tructive pest snoud be made now, advises Dr. F. H. Lathrop, Chief of the Entomology Division. The crib or bins should be cleaned out, and the left-over corn should be removed front bins in which new corn is to be stored. After the bins are thoroughly swept out, the sweepings should be burned. When the corn is harvested, it should be carefully examined. If the shucks are tight, especially about the tips of the ears, the corn will be protected from insect in jury to a large extent, and should be stored with the shucks on. If the shucks are loose, and the tips of the ears exposed, the com will probably be found infasted, with weevils. In this case the corn should be shucked at some distance from the storage bins, as this will get rid of many of the weevils be fore the corn is stored. The corn should be examined from time to time during the winter. If severe weevil infestation deve lops, the corn should be promptly fumigated with carbon bisulfide. Thjs is an inexpensive method of treatment and will prevent much of the weevil injury to corn in storage. Complete directions for the use of carbon bisulfide may be obtained by writing the Entomology Division Clemson College. STACK CORN WHERE THERE IS NO SILO ST? PAUL, Minn., Oct. 23.
