Finding it more profitable than the short staple variety, farmers of the lower part of Toombs county are preparing to plant something like half their crop this year in long staple sea island cotton. According to re ports received by the Progress several thousand acres of long staple are to be planted this year in the county. Long staple is now quoted on the market at al most 30 cents per pound and the farmers of the lower part of the county say they can make as much per acre as the short sta ple. To take care of the cotton, arrangements are being made to put in a long staple gin at Cedar Crossing. — Lyons Progress. Americanism Vindicated. There could be no surer evi dence of loyal Americanism than the towering vote by which Con gress reinforces the President in his stand for the nation’s sovere ignty and honor. Following the example of the Senate, the House has repudiated the proposal that the United States cringe to Ger man lawlessness. It has rebuked the hyphens and the marplots. It has dispelled Berlin’s illusion that the President’s demands in the submarine issue were op posed by the representatives of our people. It has unfettered the State Department for confi dent procedure in a just and righteous cause. Tni3 clearing of the atmosphere and unmistak able emphasis of how Americans feel and where they stand should go far toward averting a crisis with the German Government. In any event, it places the free dom and integrity of cur own Government beyond question. The people of Georgia are deeply gratified that their repre sentatives at Washington, both in the House and Senate, voted unanimously in support of the President and in support of true Americanism.—Atlanta Journal. Some Prosperity. Sometime ago there was a prominent Georgia citizen in the city of New York on a business mission, and at a big banquet he was called upon to make a PROS PERITY SPEECH. The follow ing is what he said: “Did it ever occur to you, Mr. Chairman, that if the COTTON raised in Georgia annually was woven into cloth, it would make! a sheet large enough to cover the entire face of America and Europe and lap'over the toes of Asia? Or that the poultry we raise each year were one HEN, it would take the largest county in the state for her to make a nest, and that the shell from her egg, “if in the proper shape,” would be large enough to build a hotel twenty stories high with one hun dred rooms to each floor? Or that the COWS we raise annually, were one cow. her milk , would float a cargo of her cheese j and butter from Savannah to | New York, while she grazed on j the vegetation along the Equator, : her tail would swith icicles oft the j : north pole? Or the MULES we raise annu ally were one mule, it would con sume the entire corn crop of South Carolina at one meal with-j out. swelling its sides, and could i kick the spots off the sun, with-1 ■ out wagging its tail? Or that the HOGS we raise annually were one hog, that ani- [ mal could dig the Panama Canal! at three roots without grunting, j and its squeal would jar the i cocoanuts off the trees along thej Cana! Zone?” —Swiped. I i' Planters for Sale. I have on hand a limited num ber of the Famous Cole Plain ! View Planters, which can be had by calling at once.
