This vs;cgk is marked in Dawson by
the opening of the public school,
which took place on Monday morning.
A large number of visitors was pres

the service was held by Rev. S. F.

Judge M. C. Edwards, president of
the board, and by Judge J. G. Parks,

and the friends of the school.
A count of the students revealed
that the school began with the biggest
enrollment ever, the number present
being three hundred and eighty-six.
There is being made a movement of
desks to care for some of the over
flowing classes. The enrollment of the
high school is one hundred and thir

4,002 BALES OF
STAPLE COMING TO DAWSON
MARKET WITH A RUSH.
GOOD MIDDLING 2lc.
Perhaps never before were Daw
son’s cotton receipts as heavy this ear
lv_in the secason as they are now.
Up to last night the warchouses had
weighed 4,002 bales. Receipts were un
usually heavy the past week, 1,000
bales being brought in from the farms.
If the weather remains open this will
be another big week in cotton circles.
Good middling was quoted at 21
cents this morning. Until today there
had been no market quotations since
closed Saturday and Monday on ac
count of Labor day, a holiday that is
nationally obscrvuf. The several buy
ers at Dawson are paying the highest
price for cotton, and the farmers who
have patronized the market here this
season are well pleased. Practically
all the cotton is being sold as it lis
brought in.
968,000 Bales Estimate for State.
Georgia’s cotton crop for 1922 is
estimated at 968,000 bales, which is
44 per cent of normal for August, in
the report of the Atlanta office of the
United States department of agricul
ture. The number of bales will vary
from this figure as conditions force it
up er down, however, the trend was
downward on September Ist.
This low estimate, which is second
only to the disastrous fall of last year,
is principally due to the boll weevil,
but weather conditions and lack of
fertilizer are contributing causes.
The deterioration was greatest in
the eastern edge of the state, the
three districts along the eastern bor
der averaging a decline of over 15
points. In the western ‘portion of the
state the average decline was about
O points.
A fair "understanding of the pres
ent status of the Georgia cotton crop
may be obtained by drawing a line
from West Point to Waycross. South
west of this line the crop is generally
better than last year, and in some cas
es very good for a crop made under
weevil condiions. Northwest of the
line the crop s “poor to fair.”
There is, however, a band along the
west of the state, and a fringe of
mountain territory on the northern
edge of the state where the condiion is
still quite hopeful. The crop is the
most spotted ever recorded in this
state, due to the variation in the use
of fertilizer, calcium arsenate, distri
bution of rainfall and date of plantings
VM CHANGES RESIDENCE.
Mr. R. G. Keniday and family and
Mr. *and Mrs. Dennis Bridges have

Sixth avenue. The W. H. Cobb resi
dence they vacated on Orange street

No one in Dawson who suffers back
ache, headaches, or distressing urinary
ills can afford to ignore this Dawson
man’s twice-told story. It is confirmed
testimony that no Dawson resident
can doubt.
G. M. Roberts, 523 E. College Ave.,
Dawson, says: .“I have taken Doan's
Kidney Pills several times in the past
and they have never failed to give me
the desired results. I had a dull ach
ing through my kidneys and it caused
quite a lot of trouble. I am glad to
recommend Doan’s, for my personal
experience proves they are a fine
remedy for any one suffering from
weak kidneys. It only takes a few
to give good relief.” (Statement given
July 4, 1914.)
On April 14, 1922, Mr. Roberts said:
“I have every bit as much faith in
Doan’s Kidney Pills now as when I
endorsed them before. They greatly
relieved me of backache and I al
whys recommend them.” :
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
