There are comparatively few pe can orchards in Sumter county It has been shown that the climate and I soil is adapted to the raising of pe cans and the people should lean more to this enterprise We were told yesterday of a farmer who brought a truck load of pecans into Americus recently and received S9OO cash for them. This farmer said, that it was the only product outside of cotton ti-at he could bring to mamet and get cash for.

Al most every possible disaster can be! averted by a bicycle rder if she* only remembers to “keep on going,”- to sit up straight and to use the handle bars with calmen 'ss and dis cretion. It is folly to attempt to ride a bicycle without having taken a few lessons from a capable teach er. Then mounting and dismount ing, riding and turning arc easy and falls'will not occur.” Substitue the word “stopV for the words, “to keep on going” and this advice would be well ‘ woitn heeding by automobde drivers of both sex. • • • MORE COMPETITION The students of the Plains high school have started paper wince is called the Dixie Be l ' The Dixie | Pee is a monthly summary if th? activities by a busy bunch of boys and girls.
