« VISITORS ON BIG EXCURSION
EXPRESS SURPRISE AT
. VARIED CROPS.
ATLANTA, Ga.—The south Geor
gia farmer is coming into a better
era, in the opinion of agriculturists
who have jll\l visited that séction on
the big farmers’ excursion of the At
lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic rail
way. He is profiting by experience
some of it costly experience— and so
planning his crops that “all his eggs
are not in one basket” at harvest time.
It is coming to pass, as visitors on
the big cxcursion perceived, that har
vest time in south Georgia is pretty
much all the time. |
For farms in that section are ex
changing some sort of produce for |
gash from January to December. |
Fhere are three year-round money |
erops on which the farmer in that
section may count with reasonable
certainty—hogs, milk and poultry.
And all three are handled as “side
lines” without interference with the
growing of cotton, grain, hay, tobac
co, peanuts and other crops.
Hog Raising Profitable.
[+ has been demonstrated, and is
being made clear on more and more
farms, agriculturists say, that hog
raising is a profitable industry in south
Georgia, and that by selling his hogs
at different seasons the farmer not
only gets better prices for his porkers ,
but contributes to the improvement
of market conditions. The packing
houses, it is stated, do not want all
hogs in the winter months, but prefer |
to buy them in all months. !
And the small dairy herd, it is point
ed out, is proving a wonderful cash'
producer on the south Georgia farm.!
[t is claimed that it does not inter
fere with other farm operations, in-|
ereases the cost oi farming very slight
ly, and gives the farmer a check week
ly or bi-weekly in spring, summer,
autumn and winter. !
The farmers in south Georgia, it is
stated, have exchanged chickens and
eggs for more money this year lhzm;
ever before. Prices have held good the !
year round, and rarely has it not been
possible to buy {ryers, broilers and
hens from the farms. |
In all these things, state agricultural

BENTHALL PEANUT PICKERS and
1 A R ] S .
Many new improvements have been made in its construction, making 1t the most
economical peanut picker on the market. Costs little to operate and requires the
fewest repairs. The Benthall pays for itself on every 200 bags picked. With
the Benthall you and your boys can do the work of a hundred hands and do 1t
better. Pick your own peanuts and then make money by picking for others this
season. Repair parts are carried in stock and, should you need them, there 1s no
expensive and troublesome delays on account of having to order.

that a brighter day for the farmers
of south Georgia has dawned and that
“moneyless months” on the farms will
not again be known. The agricultural
department of the A. B. and A. rail

I perts at work all the year, assisting

'MOVING PICTURES
~ ARE 200 YEARS OLD
| A
' IDEA WAS CONCEIVED IN THE
| DaYS OF CONFUCIOUS,
i SAYS RECORD.
' LONDON.—The carliest idea of a
lmoving picture was recorded in the
time of Confucius, the Chinese phil
osopher who lived 500 vears before
Christ. At least this is the deduction
drawn from his studies into the ques
tion by Will Day, a well-known fig
are in the English film world, who
has exhibited in London a collection
of relics and machines tracing the
growth of the moving picture from the
first primitive idea to its present form.
The “shadow shows” of the time)
of Confucius are the first of all known!
endeavors to present animated pict- |
ures. From this early time, however, |
there was a long period of inactivit)"
in development, for the next record of
progressive achievement is found in|
1646, when Athanasins Kircher pnh-!
lished a book in Latin entitled ".'\rsl
Magnalycus et Umbrae,” in which a
‘description and illustration is given ofi
a moving picture which the writcrl
evolved with mirrors and a tallow
candle for illuminant. '
Included in the collection is the orig-l
inal disc which Eadweard Muybridge
used to settle the controversy I)ctwccn!
two American millionaires on the Alo |
Palto race course at to whether the
four feet of a trotting horse were off
the ground at the same time.
The experiment which Muybridge |
carried out is said to have cost the|
University of Pennsylvania 40,000
pounds, but the fact was proved that
a horse did actually lift all four feet
simultaneously.
To Gain a Good Reputation. ;
The way to gain a good reputation |
is to endeavor to be what you appear.
That is precisely the manner in which |
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has |
gained its reputation as a cure for|
coughs, colds, croup and whooping |
cough. Every bottle that has e\'"crl
been put out by the manufacturers
has becn fully up to the high standard
of excellence claimed for it. People
have found that it can be depended
upon for the relief and cure of these
ailments and that it is pleasant and
safe to take.—adv. ,‘

'HUNTERS ARE READY
’UNCLE SAM PREPARES SMALL
PAMPHLET GIVING PRO
VISIONS OF GAME LAWS.
The hunting season is approaching
and soon the open woods will be full
of the sportsmen, with dogs and guns.
i All states, including Georgia, have
{their game laws for the protection of
{game from ruthless destruction out of
iw:mln and in season, :gml in most
states licenses are required of those
l\\'hn would hunt.
As pointed out here, it is well for
[sportsmen to be on the safe side and
l])ruvidc themselves with the necessary
'infm‘matinn concerning the game laws
fand to secure the necessary permits
l‘)(‘ffl!'v going out for a day’s sport.
Al ])«-r\mh.cmnvmp]:ning hunting
|in Georgia or in any state or territory
'in the United States are advised to
‘obtain from the state game commis
'sioner of that state or territory the
full text of its game laws.
5 A summary of the provisions of
the federal, state and provincial stat
;mcs. and a list of officials from whom
copies of state game laws may be ob
tained, is contained in Farmers' Bul
letin 1288, game laws for 1922, by
George A. Lawyer, chief United States
‘game warden, and Frank L. Earn
shaw. The bulletin is available free
‘upon application to the United States
department of agriculture at Wash
ington, D. C.
The Object. |
The object of the bulletin is to aid
in the administration of the provisions
of the migratory bird treaty act and
the Leacy act, by presenting in con
venient form the provisions of gamql
legislation for the use of law-enforce
ing officials, sportsmen, conservation
ists and others. |
It is only by observing the open
season dates published in the bulletin
that hunters of migratory birds can
avoid violation either federal or state
laws, as the federal regulations oper
ate in many cases to shorten the seca
'sons fixed by the state courts.
' The bulletin is in pamphlet form
and is easily preserved for reference.
It is stated here that it is well worth
the while of sportsmen to get the bul
letin. |

and WagOnS ROYAL JUNIOR HAY PRESS
We carry a good stock of all wanted farm machinery and implements and call your attention
to these listed below:
The Fairbanks Z type gasoline engine has proven itself to be the most economical farm engine made. It is the engine
to use with your peanut picker; to pump water, to saw wood, to bale hay and to operate your ensilage cutter. Simple
in operation and requires the least amount of fuel.
The Royal, Jr. Hay Presses are the most substantial and satisfactory hay presses on the market. Combining sim
plicity, strength, large capacity and light draft. Baling the hay crop is a pleasure with such a machine.
We sell the Adriance Mowers and Rakes. These machines save time, horses and money in harvesting your crops:
They are the simplest in construction, most substantial, have lightest draft and are easiest to operate.
Wagons made especially for use in this section—The Sunny South. In our years in business we have found no bet
ter wagon to offer the farmers in this territory. The best thoroughly seasoned oak and hickory is used and the Iron
parts are thoroughly tested to stand the heaviest strain.
