WHFP BIC RECORD!
BfGOBW cor
In 12 Months She Produces 9,--
419 Pounds Milk Contain
ing 584 Pounds Butter
SANDERSVILLE. Dec. 15. -Ac
cording to figures jusi released by
W. H. Howell, Manner cf F rn
Crest Guernsey Farm ez tWs place,
Pauline Ranter a registered Guern
sey cow has completed a very re
markable record which makes her
(he highest producing Guernsey cew
cf her age in all the southern
States. Pauline was only one year,
five months and eighteen days old
when this record started and she
gave in twelve months 9,419.7
pounds of milk, containing 49t>.65
pounds of butter fat which is equi
alent to 584 pounds of butter. .
The early age at which this rec
ord was made shows the early ma-|
turity of the Guernsey breed. The
persistency of the breed is evidenc
ed by the fact that during the last
month of her test Pauline produced
10 pounds more butter fat than she
produced in the first month of her
test. Pauline Ranter is sired by ,
Imp. Itchen Ranter and has nine
half sisters in the herd that have
been heard from and w: i continue
tomake history for the Guernsey
breed at Fern Crest. Dr. Raw
lings believes there is just as much
difference in the ability of cows to
jnake a profit as there i. in men to
succeed in any profession.

HAVE DARK HAIR |i
■ AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You I
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
With Sage Tea
i
Grandmother kept her hair beauti
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
ple mixture was applied with wonder
ful effect. By asking at any drug store
for ‘‘Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com
pound,” you will get a large bottle of
this old-time recipe, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, all ready
to use, at very little cost. This sim
ple mixture can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Well-known druggists say everybody
uses Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com
pound now because it darkens so natur
ally and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied—it’s so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears; af
ter another application or two, it is re
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and beautiful.
Salts Fine for
Aching Kidneys
When Back Hurts Flush Your
Kidneys as You Clean
Your Bowels
Most folk? forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, sometimes get sluggish
and clogged and need a flushing occa
sionally, else we have backache and dull
misery in the kidney region, severe
headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region begin drinking lots of water.
Also get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any good drug store here, take
a tablespbonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is intended to flush clogged kid
neys and help stimulate them to activ
ity. It also helps neutralize the acids
in the urine so they no longer irritate,
thus helping to relieve bladder dis
orders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia water drink
which even-body should take now and
then to help keep their kidrfeys clean.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be
lieve in trying to correct kidney trouble
while it is only trouble. By all means
have your physician examine your kid
neys at least twice a year.

Few Blacks Are Now Emigrat
ing To Northern Cities Rail
road Men Say
Al LANTA, Dec. 15.—Fcv/ South
ern negroes are now emigrating to
Northern cities, according ts rail
road transportation agents. The
movement that as- so pronounced
two years ago, cheifly through e
activities of Northern labor agents
working in Southern communi
ties has apparently ceased, it was
stated. Those negroes who had
gone North have either returned to
Southern homes and communities
or have given, up hope of returning
and are making the meat of a bad
move, it was shown. They are not
being joined by others.
There is an impressive lesson for
the Southern negro in the passing
of the craze to go North, agricultur
al leaders state. They have learned
through those who tried it. the agri
cultural leaders point out, that there
is no easv money for, toe negro in
North. They have learned also, it
was said, that the promise of social
equality, of political equality and
of equality in other ways was a
false promise.
“There is no more equality in the
North for tjie negro than there is
in the South,’’ said a prominent
negro leader here recently.” Ti:e
cnly difference is that in the South
the negro is among white friends
who understand him and help him,
while in the North he is among
strangers who do .not understand
him, have no real sympathy for
him and will not help him.”
Southern Negroes M'aice Progress',
That the negro in the S. uth can
and does make progress an i is mov
ing ahead to independence ’n a fi
nancial way where he is industrious
and frugal, was pointed out here
today by both white and black lead
ers of the negro race.
The steady clitfab of the negro ir
the South as a home owning ant
land-owning citizen coupled Wit!
his marked decrease in illitericj
constitute an impressive proof thai
the negro race is on t’ e ascendinp
scale of racial improvement anc
progress, it was shown. In Atlnnts
and in many other southern cities
and farming community. are mane
negroes who own their homos, soim
of whom have prosperous 'business
enterprises and man.,' .’.lio werl
daily and earn good pay. and wh<
rre finding life pleasant and th<
future not discouraging in Dixie.

Central Linei
The backing of prosperity is con
fidence. When there is confidence
people are prepared to do business
and if underlying conditions are
right, gcod times will follow. Con
ditions in this country are sound
the people are confident and we
are entitled to look forward to a
period of healthy expansion and
prosperity.
The railroads are prepared to do
their part. Never before have great
er facilities for transportation been
at the service of shippers. For
years these facilities have been in
process of growth and improvement
and, speaking generally, the rail
roads are now in a high state of
efficiency.
This process of development must
be a continuing one. There is no
reason why it should not keep
abreast of the requirements of com
merce if unsound economic theories
are avoided in dealing with rail-
