Blinding
Headaches
“For about twenty years,"
says Mr. P. A. Walker, a well
known citizen of Newburg,
Ky., “one of our family reme
dies has been Black-Draught,
the old reliable. . . I use it
for colds, biliousness, sour
stomach and indigestion. I
was subject to headaches
when my liver would get out
of order. I would have
blinding headaches and
couldn’t stoop about my work,
just couldn’t go. I used
Thedford’s
BLACK-DRAUGHT
and it relieved me.
“About eight years ago my
wife got down with liver and
stomach trouble... We tried
all week to help her,.. . but
she. didn’t get any better.
One day I said to the doctor,
‘I believe I will try Black-
Draught, it helps my liver.'
He said that I might try it
and to follow directions.
She was nauseated and
couldn’t eat or rest. She be
gan taking Black-Draught
and in two days she was
greatly improved and in a
week she was up."

only one cent a dose. Sold

TO THE FARMERS
OF LAMAR COUNTY
I don t think I have ever seen the
time during my business erperience
that there was need for more thought
to be given the agricultural condi
tions and just what crops to grow
and how to grow them on our farms
as at the present time. Necessity will
force us to produce cotton at a lower
price than 30 or 35c per lb., and in
my opinion the only way to do this
is to grow more cotton on fewer
acres. From present indications the
over-wintered crop of weevil is 150
to 200 times greater than the spring
of 1924, therefore, it is very neces
sary that we reduce our cotton acre
age in order to be in position to com
bat the boll weevil and as you know
the prosperity of the cotton pro
ducer and cotton manufacturer must
work hand in hand if both are to
survive the present economic changes
coming over the country.
From the manner in which the
available supply of cotton is being
exhausted it is quite apparent that
the manufacturers of the world as
well as the consumers can use our
cotton at 25c per lb., and will not
look to other countries to find a way
to grow cotton, but at 35 to 40c per
lb. they cannot use the South’s cot
ton profitably which will, of course,
cause the other sections of the world
to find a way to grow cotton in order
to supply their home spindles.
At the present time we have ex
ported around six and one-half mil
lion bales of cotton and by the end
of the cotton season our export will
perhaps reach eight million or great
er and after our home spindles have
been supplied with their usual intake
of approximately six million bales of
cotton at the end of the season the
off-take would be around fourteen
million bales if not greater to be de
ducted from the visible supply that
existed some time ago of around fif
teen million bales exclusive of lin
ters.
For the textile industry a very
large crop grown on a large acreage
will be favorable with very low
prices. This would necessarily place
the cotton grower in a much woi’se
condition than he is today, although
I admit I don’t think he can get in
much worse condition than he is at
present. In my opinion the only so
lution lies in intensive cultivation of
a small acreage thereby creating a
large yield which will give a minimum
crop at a lower cost than we had in
1924, or, in other words, enable us
to market our cotton at around 25c
per lb. a good profit. The cotton
growers, tenants and bankers should
give, for the present season, cotton
seeding a great deal of thought along
the above lines. Doubtless all of
you know I have reduced the cotton
acreage on my own farms from 1150
acres in 1924 to about 150 acres for
1925. Very respectfully,
J. C. COLLIER.

WOMAN’S CLUB MEETING
At the executive session in Febru
ary the Woman’s Club changed the
time of regular meetings from 2:30
to 3 P. M., the change to become ef
fective at the March meeting and
continue through mid-summer and
early fall. So the club met at 3
o’clock P. M. on the historical 4th
of March, 1925, and much interest
ing comment was made on the
inauguration of President Coolidge,
to which all the world had listened in.
The minutes recorded no unfinished
business and Mrs. Collier was grati
fied that we keep squarely up with
the work planned for the club to do.
The standing committees could pre
sent no official report, the chairman
being absent, but all things were
working together for good. The
committee appointed to purchase sil
verware for the club house made a
satisfactory report and was advised
to stand for home patronage.
A report from the grade mothers
proved how dear the Gordon gram
mar school is to the heart of the
club. Among other improvements
they had lights scientifically adjusted
and the surface of the play ground
filled in to a perfect drainage.
Mrs. Maxwell stated that clean-up
week would be agitated immediately
and the city would put on extra good
looks for the convention.
Mrs. Tyus gave assurance that the
cemetery would be well cared for. A
sexton would be employed and the
committee would give all the atten
tion needed to keep the “silent city”
beautiful.
The problem of paying dues at a
fixed date came up for discussion.
The subject was spoken to by Mrs.
A. O. Murphey and Mrs. A. H. Eng
lish. Hereafter a person joining the
club during he year will pay dues
each month until January Ist, when
all members on that date will pay
dues in full for the new year.
The club is to entertain the dele
gates to the State Federation of Mu
sic Clubs at luncheon Thursday at
noon, 26th inst., at the Baptist
church annex. The entire member
ship of the Woman’s club is invited
to be present as guests at the lunch
eon.
At the conclusion of business the
hostesses served refreshments. The
hostesses of the afternoon were:
Miss Priscilla Stroud, Mrs. T. O. Gal
loway, Mrs. Frank Sims, Mrs. Nellie

The Central of Georgia Tells How Co-operation Between
The Public and The Railroads Benefits Both.
Much has been said during recent years about co-operation between carrier and shipper as a
means of improving the service that transportation renders to business. “Co-operation” is more
than a catch-word. It has become an actual fact in marking relations between the railroads and
their patrons.
It is both interesting and important for the public to understand the means by which this
satisfactory situation has been brought about. It did not just happen, but is the result primarily
of a better understanding of certain general principles and the carrying of those principles into
practice.
It may fairly be said that railway management has displayed an increasing recognition of its
obligation to render service that is efficient, to supply that service at reasonable rates and to take
the people into its confidence by furnishing accurate information about transportation affairs. The
public, with a better knowledge of railroad matters, has come to realize that transportation is not
something apart, but something intimately connected with the prosperity of each individual and of
the country as a whole. Understanding that as the railroads prosper they prosper, the people are
no longer regarding the roads with hostility and distrust, but are according transportation the
same square deal and fair treatment that is given other industries.
An interesting illustration of the operation of the principle of co-operation is found in the
Shippers Regional Advisory Boards. There are eight of these iri different sections of the country.
That for the Southeast is in session today in Savannah, Georgia, The purpose of these Boards is
stated as follows:
“To form a common meeting ground between Shippers and Railroads for the
better understanding of transportation questions, to adjust informally car
difficulties which may arise between carrier and shipper and to give the ship
ping public a direct voice in the activities of the Car Service Division on
all matters of mutual concern.”
To carry out this purpose, representatives of shipper and carrier meet, at regular intervals,
around the conference table on a basis of mutual confidence and good will. They hear reports, dis
cuss problems and make plans for handling business. Attendance is voluntary, the proceedings are
informal, but largely as a result of the information presented and the contact established it has
been possible for the railroads to handle a record-breaking volume of traffic without car shortages,
delay or interruption to business.
There is no question that business suffers when transportation is slow, uncertain or inadequate.
Shippers who have wisely furthered the purpose of the Regional Advisory Boards bear witness to
the saving in interest charges, the speeding-up of business, and the benefits to individual enter
prises and to industry in general because of more dependable transportation.
Indication of the necessity for the best efforts of all connected with transportation is found in
the fact that in 1890 the railroads rendered a service of 1,836 ton miles per capita, while in 1923
this had increased io 4,160 ton miles; or, putting it another way, while population increased 70 per
cent the demand for transportation increased 239 per cent.
It is reasonable to assume that the demands upon the railroads will continue to increase. It
is a fair question to ask what the carriers are doing to meet this demand. They are spending this
year one billion one hundred million dollars in expanding and increasing their facilities. The pub
lic will benefit from the increased efficiency that will result.
The Central of Georgia Railway appreciates the assistance of such agencies as the Shippers
Regional Advisory Boards. The Central of Georgia is always glad to avail itself of helpful ideas
advanced by the traveling and shipping public.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.

President, Central of Georgia Railway Company.
