Villa is caught ?
The old Biennial joke about a I
South Georgia candidate for
governor is about ready to be
laid on the shell lor this season.
As soon as Uncle Ham catches
Villa he may as well get ready

other bandits that will be ready
to make trouble.
Some agricultural writers are
urging the planting of good cot

of it, be planted.
A South (Jeorgia man who has
had lagrippe for two weeks is
not til for anything on earth hut
to be sent to Mexico to help plug
up some mountain pass ahead of
Villa.
Much is being written about
the proper time to plant a garden.
In these parts we are waiting
until we can rise in the morning
and not lind the spot covered
with frost.
The several patriot a* (ieorgians

one of President Wilson’s notes.

success.
l ittle as you may think of it, j
two grand causes m Georgia are I
moving on the up grade. Prohi
bition and the Sunday school
work arc marching on to greater
achievements. The state Sunday
school convention in \ugusta on
May - I will show that our as
sertions are true as to the latter.
It is safe to say that there is
not one single farm in Montgom

proved wonderfully by fitting up
power that would eliminate much
hard work now performed by
mere brute force, to say nothing
of hundreds of things that would
make the ow ners more comfort

The more the sale of the state
road is discussed the more appar
ent it becomes that the people
have been kept in ignorance of
the real status of the matter.
Instead of a huge gwse that con
tinually dropped golden eggs it is
about to be shown that it tins
s inply been furnishing a hobby
for politicians to rule on.
We respectfu !y suggest to the
Montgomery v, .. '\ Livestock

begin to ih got ate for a few
