Only one more day in which to see the State Fair, but it would be time well spent. As grand factors in Georg l's good times we have hog-killing j time and Christmas still on Our; string. You will find the Montgomery county farmer who has not lost his head on cotton busy plowing in oats. On his trip through Georgia Mr. Wilson did not strike the garden spot. South Georgia is the hub of development and choice investments. It makes little difference with Huerta whether he is elected president of Mexico or not. He can chop off a few heads and reign until his own head falls in to the basket. Being a,close observer, Presi dent Wilson has probably noticed in his itinerary of the South that the old country is humping some since Democracy took charge of the government. Frank’s counsel are already looking towards Savannah to hold his second trial if one is granted. Frankly, we do not think Savannah will appreciate any such advertising. T' '* man, or boy, who follows >f rectitude and is not 1 by the every-day snares ,if, prevail, is peculiar in the full sense of the word. Verily he needs no badge to distinguish him from surrounding types and conditions of the present day, for he stands apart; he is in a class by himself, always at the head with but few struggling for his place. Since the passage of the new tax law last summer, many are rising up to commend it and ex press wonder at the act not hav ing been passed many years soon er. Tax Commissioner John C. Hart, who has been actively in vestigating conditions, find that only about one-seventh of the state’s taxable property is re turned for taxation. But the vi ta! question is. how to get the proper values on the tax books. I Montgomery citizens cannot ai ford to be lax in the matter of raising the necessary funds to ward the employment of the farm demonstrator, whose work has been mentioned in these columns for the past several weeks. It is a proposition be tween this and Toombs county, and Toombs county lias already responded to all demands made upon her. Only SIOO dollars re main to be raised by this county -—by the citizens. Who will give five dollars toward this work? Let it not bo said that tho plan has failed because the people of Montgomery count > failed to do their part. One hundred thousand dollars spent for flowers to decorate the grave of the world’s richest brewer, Adolphus Busch, whose death recently occurred in tier many. Based on the countless revenue from his beverage, thfsj is a small sum; it is well under-1 stood that this unlimited revenue has been contributed by every state and hamlet in the United States, and thousands of fami lies, destitute of bread, have been robUxi in the process of tribute. Yet hypocrites will rise | up tv the thousands and tell that * - ’’ sch was a groat benefac- j that the world is better i. lived and amassed un < millions, 1 fTTYTTYTYYYYYYYYYYYYVYYYY• t Gleanings From t 1 Wisdom’s Field. \ t < •AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA J Waycross Herald: —Cuba de termined that the Mexican situa tion shall not eliminate it from the first page position in the day’s news, has developed a military plot against the government. Macon Telegraph:—Let the na tions agree to stop building war ships for a year and then turn that money into the fund for in creasing agricultural facilities. Tattnall Journal: —Tattnall : county’s crops will surpass any thing she has ever had. Corn Club boys are getting ready for the annual displays and it is gratifying to see that a great many more will compete for pri zes this year than did last year, with better yields and greater profits. GraymontHustler:- Some folks look like green persimmons taste, says an exchange. Ah, brother, you must have some of those dead beats on your list. Perry Home Journal:—lt would be a political error of far-reach ing effect to displace next year a faithful and efficient democrat ic Congressman. Within the next several years a new man would be a mere “notch in a stick’’ in congress, compaied to the worth of a congressman who had gained political wisdom by experience. Monroe Advertiser: —With his asinine attacks on Underwood, “Hero Hobson” is going to sink himself far deeper in the sea of political oblivion than he ever sank the Merrimac in the en trance to Santiago harbor Pembroke Enterprise:—Sever al weekly papers over the state have raised their subscription price from SI.OO to $1.50 a year. Even at this price the newspaper would be a sure road to the poor house were it dependent alto gether upon its subscribers. Atlanta Constitution:—lf Sul zor is elected to the New York legislature among the things he will have to reminr bin. Tam many will be the wL.nu. wk up his sleeve. I Greensboro Herald-Journal: An exchange says that they are ,shearing sheep by electricity, that’s nothing. They are skin ning skunks in Atlanta by the use of newspapers. Savannah Press: —Felix Diaz says he isn’t very anxious to be President of Mexico. He knows too well the fate of the average gringo President. Valdosta Times: Dispatches from Atlanta declare that Mor monism is growing radidly in ] Georgia. This reminds us that Georgia is a big state and nearly everything grows fast in Geor gia—especially the isms. Darien Gazette:- Some of the i Georgia cities are finding it rath er difficult to prize the Republi cans out of the postoffices. How ever, it ought not to be difficult, if they go at it in the proper way. Hawkinsville Dispatch-News: Thirteen has always been look ed upon by some as an unlucky number but not so by the farmer who has been getting thirteen cents per pound for his cotton. He will think of it as his lucky number, and no doubt would be glad to see it come again when he is ready to market his next cotton crop. Sandersville Georgian There is no law against making persim mon beer, and as the crop is quite abundant no doubt quantities of this old-time Georgia beverage ’will be made. THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR-THURSDAY. OCT 30, 1918 College Students To Judge Stock At Fairs. Athens, Oct. 25.—A large 1 number of students of the State College of Agriculture will go to the fair at Commerce on Oct. 28 ,to judge stock under the direc tion of Prof. Goodwin. As many as fifteen requests have been re ceived recently by the college for trained men to judge live stock at fairs to be held in the state, most of which requests have had | to be denied on account of a lack of men and means. It is the purpose of the college to give j students special training in live 1 stock judging not only at the ; college, but at fairs so that they will he available for future de mands of Georgia fairs. A Square Deal. Give the people a square deal. We have done this the past two seasons, and as a result so far this season we have received more cotton than ever before. We give the correct weight, tell them the grade and show them the market price, and knowing what it cost to handle, they refuse any but a fair offer. We represent I the Southern States Cotton Cor poration. Bring your selling cer tificate. Vidalia Warehouse, ad Vidalia, Ga. Sheriff Sale. Georgia—Montgomery ('minty.
