McDonough, Ga., April 10, 1915
It Depends on You.
Do you remember how a new
depot was secured for McDon
ough? Doyou«not recall that it
was a matter in which every ci i
zen oi McDonough became active
ly interested?
A id when the time came for
the hearing before the State Rail
road Commission in Atlanta, Me
Donough—or most of it —went to
Atlanta and attended the hearing.
We succeeded. And no man
can with reason say that it is im
possible for McDonough to secure
anything she really wants, when
he recalls how admirably we
managed the depot matter.
This same interest in the heart
of t very citizen can secure for
McDonough anything it seeks.
How much broader the work,
however, and how much larger
force of co laborers can we have
when our cause is a county cause
as well as a city cause.
And such a cause is the project
to secure the Dixie Highway
through Henry county.
This is a case in which several
counties are intesely interested,
Butts county is as much concerned
as Henry, for the route which
would traverse Henry county must
also traverse Butts.
The purpose is for the route t >
enter Henry county on the noith
side, come through McDonough,
e via Wbite House or Flat
Rock, then through Locust Grove,
and so into Butts county, through
JeriKinsburg, Jackson, and Indian
Springs, thence through Monroe
county to Forsyth, and thence to
Macon.
This is Ihe shortest possible dis
taiice over a highway between
Atlanta and Maeon.
All citizens of the towns named
and of the counties as well are in
terested in this project. Let us
all but put this interest to work
and we can’t avoid success.
Come to the meeting at McDon
ough to-morrow morning.
LOST.—On Feb. 22nd between
the depot and Judge Reagan’s a

Automobile Tax Must Be Paid.
It has been reported that there
-are still many automobile owners
in Henry county who have not
yet paid the 1915 automobile tax.
Therefore all sheriffs, bailiffs,
ar.d marshals are requested to.ar
rest all such persons for violation
of the law.

ABERDEEN=ANGUS CROSSES ARE
MAKING GOOD.
About a year ago we put in service an Aberdeen-
Angus bull with our native cows. If there are any
doubting “Thomases” around we would be glad they
would take a good look at some of these crosses [al
though quite youngl and note how thick, low-set,
round, compact, fine in bone, soft hair, mellow skin,
rich color, and fine head.
Keep a close watch on these young calves and watch how rapidly they
grow and fatten. The sire of these calves gained as high as eighty-eight (88)
pounds in thirty days—and I was not trying to fatten him. 1 say watt n these
•rosses when they tret old enough to put on the grass and sc 2 them shed their
>ahy coats and put on a fine glossy “dress suit” and round up into the ‘ideal”
attle.
I have in service now one of the very best voting bulls that can be found,
le is right closely related to the best the breed has ever produced—and “blood
vill teli ”
•*
It will more than pay any man to breed his cows to this animal and have
oming along a ‘ Black Brigade” that will turn dollars and pleasure your way
v hen the price of cotton is low.
