Listen Farmers
Here's something I hope you won't overlook. It's about our Premium List at the Great Georgia State Fair in Macon
from October 27 to November 7. I know that some of our farmers have not a full List, so I want to calLyour attention to
a few of the special premiums, not to mention here the liberal premiums we offer for individual and county agricultural
exhibits.
Look over these I reproduce here.
See if you cannot enter for this class of premiums.
You probably can do if without much trouble and at the same time it may be profitable to you.
Besides, it will show just what good farmers Georgia farmers are.
This List contains the Special Agricultural Exhibits. Study it. Get enthusiastic about it and let us hear from you.

ths perennial dispute over prohibition,
relates to th* disposition of an Initia
tive and referendum constitutional
amendment. Th* news comes that
probably It has been adopted. The
optional referendum has been adopted
by South Dakota, Utah. Oregon, Ne
vada, Montana an! Oklahoma, and
th* initiative by Oregon, Oklahoma
and South Dakota Main* Is thus the
first Kaatem State to adopt the new
fangled acvhrme by which an attempt
Is made to substitute direct Demo
cratic government for the representa
tive Democratic government, which
our forefathers adopted after mature
Brat with th* referendum, as other
States have done, goes th* whols
length at one step and alao'votes In
tha Initiative. The amendment pro
vides that laws passed by the Legis
lature shall not go Into affect until
ninety days after thetr passage. If
within the ninety days not laaa 10,000
electors Mlgn a petition tha law la held
up. and doe* not go Into effect unless
approved by th* voters at the next
general election As to th* Initiative,
it » provided that 12,000 electors may
petition for a law xnd tf It la Qbt
adopted by the legislature without
change It must by submitted In Its
original form and with any chcngcs
that the Legislature may suggest at
