Alfalfa In Sumter.
That alfalfa will do well in
Sumter is proven by the success
attending the efforts of Mr. R.
W. Buchanan, upon his dairy
farm near Americus, and Mr.
Hogshead, residing near Plains.
Each has a fine field of alfalfa,
planted in the late fall and now
growing off well.
Alfalfa is one of the best crops
that can be planted for cutting
and grazing. It is said that four
or five cuttings of hay in a sea
son is about the average, and
each crop is a most valuable one.
Mr. Buchanan, who conducts a
large and model dairy farm, is
especially pleased with the re
sults attained in the planting of
his first crop of alfalfa. A very
fine stand on two acres is report
ed.
Mr. J. C. Carter, who gives
considerable attention to raising
fine livestock, is succeeding well
with burr clover and vetch. On
his model farm hear Americus he
has four or five acres in burr
clover that is growing luxuriant
ly and gives promise of several
cuttings next summer. It is said
that Mr. Carter and other Sum
ter farmers have, collectively,
about sixty acres planted in burr
clover.--Americus Times-Recor

Night Pictures Souhgt
of the Panama Animals.
New York, Jan. 24.—Night
pictures of the animals that prowl
in Panama's jungles are prizes
sought by George Shiras, a for
mer Pennsylvania congressman,
who will leave here for the canal
zone next w r eek, equipped with a
flash light outfit. With Mr. Shi
ras will go A. C. Anthony, an ex
plorer on the staff of the Ameri
can Museum of Natural History.
Gatur Lake will be made the
basis of opei’ations. Mr. Antho
ny explained today that the lake
had a great deal of water in it as
a result of being dammed and
this would permit exploration of
regions heretofore impossible to
reach.
Mr. Anthony yesterday sub
jected himself to typhoid immun
ity treatment.
The explorers plan to procure
for the museum the animals
caught in traps set by Mr. Shiras
to take their pictures by flash
light. Jaguars, panthers, tapir,
deer and monkeys abound in the
region to be explored.

Poor, Innocent Husband.
We are reminded of an inc : -
dent that occurred in court a day
or two ago, says the Cleveland
Plaindealer. It w'as told us by a
man who had noticed that when
wives have abusive husbands ar
rested they always repent a little
later.
“You have had your husband
arrested for ill treating you, and
now you are trying to have him
discharges,” said the court, im
patiently. “Did he not attack
you?”
“No, your honor.”
“But you say he bit your nose
off. And you have the bandage
on. Didn.t your husband bite
your nose off?”
“N-n-o, your honor. I—l did it
myself!”

A Note to You:
Jan. I, 1914.
Stop your automobiles and other
vehicles in front of our place.
Why go further? We are head
quarters for the up-to-the-minute
people and for everything up-to
the-minute in the Drug line.
We have had no kicks register

and do not believe you will have

To Monitor Subscribers:
Eleven years ago The Montgomery Monitor was re-established
and put on a business basis, and since that time it has been recog
nized as one of the best weekly publications in Georgia.
To put the business in its present excellent condition, it has
meant the outlay of both money and hard and trying labor—plenty
of it--and the merit of the paper is fully recognized by the public.
But in supposing that the paper should be printed and sent out
FREE, many of our patrons are in error—in fact, hundreds of them
refuse to pay the debts they contract with the paper, and, as a
common result, we have, during the past few years, thrown away
several thousand dollars in a vain effort to please an ungrateful and
eVer-grasping element. This plan is very unsatisfactory.
Therefore, in order to put a check on the constant drain on our
pocket-book, and withdraw the unwarranted and unappreciated
outlay on our part, we have decided to put the subscription on a
CASH BASIS, TO ALL alike. This rule effective Jan. 1, 1914. In
order to save annoyance, make settlement before January Ist.
Before this date our books will be revised, and all names in
arrears will be dropped from the roll, and no new names placed on
the books except upon payment in advance, whether it be 25 cents,
50 cents or SI.OO. Under this plan those who are benefited by our
money and labor will be contributing toward the support of the
paper, from which they will receive full value.
If you owe the paper, send in the money at once. If you want
it sent to you regularly—and every family in the county should
have it—send in the price AT ONCE. v It shall no longer be sent
out onjthe credit or graft plan. To those of our patrons who ap
preciate and pay for our efforts, we offer our thanks; to those who
are indebted to us, we respectfully ask a settlement—AT ONCE.
Trusting that all will understand the above rule, and lend their
co-operation toward the further upbuilding of the paper, we are
Very truly,
The Montgomery Monitor,
Dec. 15, 1913. Mt. Vernon, Ga.
