Stop the Loss of Grain
Between Field and Thresher
To avoid loss of grain from shattering, many farmers have adopted grain-tight racks for hauling
to stack or thresher —a step in the right direction. But what about grain lost from shattering
while passing through the binder, or damaged while
“Champion”
Force Feed that automatically adjusts itself to
Elevator light or heavy grain in different
fields, or in different parts of the
same field. The flow of grain to the packers
is continuous and so gentle that there is no
shattering.

the inside end of the cutter bar.

ELLIS-SETZER COMPANY
HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH GEORGIA.
In operating most binders weeds catch on the inner
corner of cutter bar and retard the butts of the grain,
allowing the heads to be elevated first. Hence, instead
of having a smooth bundle with heads all at one end,
you have a BUNCH of grain. When such bundles
are shocked, some of the grain heads are in contact
with the ground, causing them to sprout or rot.
The relief rake on the Champion keeps trash cleaned
away, preventing grain being dragged through uncut.
The kicking motion of the rake straightens the grain
so it ascends the elevator in proper position.
A State Project
It is estimated that the cost of
constructing the Slone Mountain
Confederate Memorial will be two
and a half million dollars and that
some eight years will be required
in carving. One speaker at the i
recent banquet in Atlanta inti- j
mated that the North would don
ate doiiar for dollar if tile memo
rial should be so designed as to
commemoiate both sides, but the
Mayor of Atlanta suggested that
“it remain to the South, to the
sons and daughters of these heroes
to have the glory as well as the
responsibility of building it.” Of
course, if the proposed memorial
should fail to be brought into
existence by the Southern people
then there is nothing standing in
the way Northern organizations
purchasing a large enough strip
on the side of the mountain to set
up a memorial according to their
ideas.
Of the two and half million dol
lars to be raised, Georgia’s quota
is only $250,000. The rest would
be divided out among the various
Southern States, as we understand
it. Of the $250,000, Atlanta has
Already virtually agreed to supply
a substantial portion.
In view of the nation-wide in
terest manifest, as well as the un
usual opportunity presented to set
up in this State a great work of
art as a show of reverence to the
history of the South, The Tele
graph has suggested that the pro
posed memorial bt made a reco
gnized State project and that the
Legislature, bv way of identifying
the Stone Mountain achievement
with the whole people of Georgia,
makk an appropriation in its be
half, with various communities
following suit. Some five or more
years would be allowed for pay
ment.
It occurs also that a unique
and splendid educational and cul
turnl opportunity exi-ts for the
people of Georgia in connection
with the actual work of construct
ing the monument. At a compara
tively small expense, the Universi
of Georgia could maintain at Slone
Mountain, at least during the eight
years the memorial was in the
couiseof construction, a branch
school devoted to the advance
ment of ait and sculpture. It is
not improbable that all lhe other
Soniheartein States and even
Northern agencies, would deem it
fortunate to have a part in financ-

rhe high advantage of locating
such a branch department at Stone
Mountain during the eight year
period—and after—is plainly ob
vious. The vivid inspiration to
the young student in coming in
contact with thinkers, students
ami workers in the realm of scul
pture and art, would be invaluable,
I his suggestion might be given
serious consideration on part of
the educational factors and forces
of the State and the members of
the General Assembly who are in
terested in educational matters.
As much as our common school
are in need of better facilities, and
shoule not cease their efforts until
they get them, it is disastrous to
greatly neglect advanced educa
tion and training. It must be con
sidered that some ten thousand
students annua’ly attend the Uni
versity of Georgia and its branches
alone, and that these young men
and women come from every sec
of Georgia, the rural districts as
well as the towns.
By this time it should be very
plain that the most effective way
in which the common schools and
other agencies of education can
increase their financial allowances
is for them to go to work for a tax
system that will provide for greater
distribution of the tax burdens,
with a view to raising more rev
enue, although there can be an
actual lowering of taxes as result.
Even the common schools can ex
pect little more than they are re
ceiving until sucli wider distribu
tion is effected, as already practic
ally a'l the money received by the
State Treasury from all property
taxes goes to the public school sys
tem, as of course it should.
