WHY NOT

I The people in and around Ame>i
i cus who have pecan orchards a? e
I now harvesting their crops and
everything bids fair to them re
| ceiving a handsome price for their
! product.
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.
Each year the demand increeses
for pecans and as soon as the pec
ple in the East and North are edu
cated to eating the wholesome mor
sels like we do down here the de
mand should exceed the supply Set
out some trees now and get on the
band wagon “of big prices for pe
cans” in the next few years.

a little afraid. Fatal mistake. 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
