VOLUME XXV VIDALIA EXPECTS LARGEST TOBACCO SEASON TO HAVE TWO SETS OF BUYERS HERE INDIAN SPRINGS CAMP MEETING TO BE AUGUST 11-21 | THIS GREATEST OF SOUTHERN CAMP MEETINGS WILL HOLD IT’S THIRTY-FIFTH SESSION, AUGUST 11-21. ! At a recent meeting of the Execu tive Committee, final plans were per fected to care for the thousands of visitors who annually attend this no table religious gathering from the Southeastern States. During the thirty-five years of its history, some of the greatest preach- America and of Europe have ii.™Ped the pulpit of this famous Camp and this year will see no let-down in the high standard of its ministry. Rev. H. C. Morrison, D. D., Louis ville, Ky., Dean of the Holiness pul pit, and one of the outstanding preach ers in America, will be present this year. Perhaps no living man is wielding a mightier influence against the destructive forces of the day, or building more gloriously on the one foundation, Jesus Christ, than this mighty prophet of the Lord. Hun dreds erf ministers will doubtless avail themselves of this opportunity to hear him again. Rev. J. L. Brasher, D. D., University Park, lowa, another of the preachers at the Camp this year, is one of the greatest preachers of the Jj* E- Church. Rev. C. W. Butler, IX, Cleveland, Ohio, Dean gs the Cleveland Bible Institute and one of the strong men of the Holiness pul pit, will be at the Camp this year for the first time. He comes with high- ( est recommendation and will receive a hearty welcome. Mrs. Jere M. Glenn, Young Harris, Ga., a gifted and trained worker with young peo ple, will have charge of this phase of if r ork again and will be assisted by jfc'iss Clarice Morford, of Portland, , and a trained corps of teachers and workers in the Holiness move ment. Hundreds of the choicest young people in Georgia, South Caro lina and other states will be present for these studies in “Holiness.” Hamp Sewell, of Atlanta, Ga., one of the South’s leading eomposers and pub lishers of sacred music, will have charge of the music again this year, i He will be assisted by a full orchestra and a choir of some 200 voices, aug mented by the wonderful congrega tional singing for which this camp is so justly noted. Thomas Eden and Bistir, Ethle, favorites at all the great camps in the country, will render special music. The object of these meetings is to spread Scriptural Holiness through out the earth; that Christ’s Kingdom may come and His Will be done in all the earth as it is in Heavn. In dian Springs Camp Ground is not a disturber of the peace of Zion but a promoter of peace. It does not stand for “Cranktification,” but for that blessed Bible doctrine of entire “Sanctification.” In the work of this Camp, there is no “Come-Outism” but a blessed union of any and all evangelical denominations who feel the need of a clean heart, a holy life .tJU a larger enduement for service. Board of Trustees, composed of leading ministers and laymen, extend to the people generally, a most cordial invitation to come and spend ten days at this “Feast of Souls.” Leader & Rosansky Building Three Brick Store Buildings Here Among the construction work now going on in this city is three brick buildings on Thompson street. The has already started and will be rushed to completion. These build ings are being erected by Leader & Rosansky and will add much to that section of the city.

They are wait ing. Waiting, waiting for the new machine to begin its work, to see its first moves—to hear its real policies announced. So believing that your readers would be interested in some observations that I have made in the last few weeks as a native citizen of the State, I am writing to you hoping that you will see fit to publish my article. If so shall continue my ob servations during the entire sesson. Each time we elect a new*Governor, an a new Senate and House convenes we learn what a various creature is the Typical American. A great variety of governors we have had in my lifetime—some gay, boisterous, full of the joy of living, expansive spirits that echo frontier days, a picaresque twentieth century Cavalier. These hit' the nail hard and did not flinch. And, as some one said of Roosevelt, “his laughter shook the skies.” Then w r e have had another type— the Typical American that was troub led about his soul. Rooted firmly in the church-going past he carried the banner of the Lord and Democracy in his right hand—yet he let not his right hand know what his left was do ing. ! And now we have, or so it is said, the perfectly Typical American for overnor of the great State of Georgia. One who has faith in Georgia, who knows her worth—for he has made his millions right within her boundaries, who is for liberty, virtue, happiness, prosperity, law and order and all the standard generalities and holds them a perfect creed. He has been a banker, a farmer, a manufacturer, a small town doctor who has seen suf fering, a native from the hills of Georgia who should know the prob lems of his people, and last, but not least he is a success, i This man from Commerce, Dr. La martne Hardman, has conquered the American idol —Success —roped and “heg-tied” it as far as his personal and business life is concerned. It re mains to be seen whether his “busi ness administration” is as great a suc cess as his other ventures. But con ditions bid fair fair for his crowd and fai r for the state at large. It has been said—that the Governor has conquered all his ambitions save that of being a good Governor of his native state. Here is his opportunity to competely fill his highest of ambi tions —we need a good Governor. The Senate Chamber is far from being beautiful —it is very old, very dingy, and very poorly vntilated, as several Senators’ wives discovered as sat glorying, of course, in their hus band’s achiements, at the same time sweltering. But in spite of the bad air and closed quarters, one misses a great deal if one does not go to the State Senate, for history is made fast nowdays. One can learn more of practical politics and civil government there in one week than one can learn .in years of study from any books written. It is a solemn and impressive cere mony—the “swearing in” of Geor gia’s Senators. That is, it Would have been if the Judge had not run his words together in such a manner that I doubt seriously if a single man un derstood the solemn oath he was tak ing. Then the fun began—the election of president for the Senate. A seri ous matter when one considers that he has the same chance of being Governor as the Vice-President of 6Ur country has of being President. I use the expression “fun” advisedly from it as a game of corporations, or , so I have been told, and the way the j (Continued on Back Page) large building of brick construction with modern front.

The announcement states that on the opening day a quart of clean, clear Texas motor oil will be given to everyone that purchases as much as five gallons of gasoline. This station : is to handle Texas products. Mr. Cochran’s many friends here wish for him, in his new field, much success. ELECTRIC POWER NOT PRIME NECESSITY FOR FERTILIZER MAKING EXPERT SAYS MUSCLE SHOALS FERTILIZER EQUIPMENT IS OBSOLETE. I have read the last issue of “THE WEEK”, dealing with Muscle Shoals as a fertilizer manufactory with much ! interest. I have had occasion to write a great deal on the same sub ject. Not only is the cynimid process in ‘use at Muscle Shoals obsolete, but electricity as a prime necessity for fixing air nitrogen is obsolete. Syn thetic nitrogen is essentially a chemi cal and not an electrical product The market for cynomid is already saturated with only the small output of cynamid that comes from Canada. Fertilizer manufacturers can not safely use more than 50 to 70 pounds of the material in a ton of fertilizers. The question is, what will they do with cynimid if they produce it at Muscle Shoals? It is generally rec ognized by agricultural authorities that the material could, at best, find only a very limited use, and that limit is not far from being reached already. All agricultural tests show that cynimid is inferior in plant nu trition and when used as the sole source of nitrogen is quantities cal culated to supply the nitrogen need of crops, proves toxic sometimes to the extent of destroying the crops. There is room for the use of some cynmid in fertilizers, particularly for the good mechanical effect it gives to the goods, but this is not an impor tant consideration and the market, as previously stated, is already well supplied. Another point: already the Allied Chemical orporation has started the construction of a $27,000,000 syn thetic plant at Houewell, Virginia. German interests also have incorpo rated in Louisiana apparently to co operate with Standard Oil Company to engage in the producton of syn thetc products, ncludng armona. Du ponts have acqured the Lazote pat ients and are also plannng large pro duction of methanol with synthetic nitrogen as an important by-product. Germany has already been selling and is prepared to sell synthetic ammoni aes and even synthetic complete fer tilizers in this country at a price that is alarming domestic producers of fertilizers. THREE LARGE WAREHOUSES NOW READY FOR BUSS €SS POWER COMPANY TO PROVIDE INSURANCE FOR ALL EMPLOYERS IT IS THE DESIRE OF THE GEOR GIA POWER COMPANY THAT EACH EMPLOYEE HAVE LIFE POLICY. Atlanta, Ga., July 14.—Plans for completing the biggest insurance deal in the history of Atlanta have been set under way by the Georgia Power Company, which has just announced an offer to provide every employe of the company with life policies at ex ceedingly low rates, j It is expected that the total amount I of insurance written under the Geor | gia Power Company plan will exceed ; $7,500,000. Out of a desire to make a life in surance policy possible for every em j ployee of the company, the Georgia ; Power ompany has arranged with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com pany through E. G. Richmond, South ‘ ern Sales Representative, for mdivi | dual policies for all company em -1 ployes, th power company to pay the | difference in the rate given employers i and the cost of purchasing the insur i ance from the Metropolitan Company. The amount of insurance to which employes are eligible is based on their earnings; policies ranging from SI,OOO to $3,000. The premium to I be paid by employes is only 60 cents a month for SI,OOO of insurance, pro vided 75 per cent of the employes purchase insurance. Every employe of the power company is eligible for the insurance without a medical ex amination. I It is expected that practically every one of the thousands of em ployes of the power company in every part of Georgia will take advantage of this offer of the power company to pay the difference between the small ; premium offered them and the regu ! lar rate of the insurance company. j - Big Tent Meeting To Visit Vidalia i A part of the Greensboro Bible ! School Band from Greensboro, N. C., will hold a tent meeting in this city, begirfhing Thursday the 14th, and continuing over the 31st. The band consists of eight pieces. It will play each night before the services and the mixed quartette will sing during each service at least once. The evangelists are Mrs. W. L. Duncan of Lyons, Ga., and Mr. Bi»ell E. Bingham of Mebane, N. C., who is also a member of the band and quar tette. There will also be visiting friends, who will assist in the meet ing. i The outstanding feature of this meeting will be old-fashioned gospel preaching and good music. A hearty welcome awaits each one. i Before giving advice a wise man prepares to dodge the consequences. The immediate prospect therefore, is that the farmer is in for much cheaper nitrogenous fertilizer. In fact, the synthetic production affords the only prospect of cheaper nitro gen. Yet, there is still serious considera tion given in Washington to using Muscle Shoals’ electric power to pro duce fertilizers. Any one who leases Muscle Shoals and obligates himself to produce nitrogen for fertilizers, will assuredly not obligate himself to use the electricity of the power plant to produce it, for he cannot do it and compete with the synthetic producers. He can produce economically only chemically and not electrically. He will in fact, have power that can find economical use only in its distribu tion for power and lighting purposes. BARNS ARE BEING FILLED WITH THE WEED; SEVERAI. BARNS HAVE BEEN CURED IT IS SAID. On August 2, the Vida'.ia Tobacco Market, as well as those all over the state, will open for the sale of bright leaf tobacco, the local market offer ing three large warehouses, covering six acres of floor space and managed jby energetic and efficient tobacco salesmen and patronized by the best tobacco growers in th state of Geor gia. According to the best forward ad vices that can be obtained the market here should sell at the smallest esti mated figures, eight million pounds of tobacco this season, and it is possi ble for this tonnage to go as high as ten million pounds, which is evidenc ed by the fact that several hundred acres of the weed is growing and be ing cropped almost at the doors of the warehouse, this being grown in a radius of three miles of the city; the estimated crop for the county being : around four thousand acres, j The large warehouse on the Jeff Davis Highway, which is the third warehouse for this market, and which is being built by Messrs. Bernard and Vann, experienced tobacco men who come to our city from Greenville, Tenn., as stated last week, is almost completed, and will be ready when the sale of the weed starts on August 2nd. Messrs. Varlri and Morrows, the sales managers for this new house, have been in the city for several days making preliminary plans for the opening of this new building and they also state that they will remain here until the end of the season. With the good grade and amount of tobacco raised in this section and with the increase in sales each year, Vidalia’s market this year will be sup plied with two sets of buyers, and all indications are that in the very near future we will have the largest tobac co market in the state, and with three of the largest warehouses in the state and two sets of buyers, and extra j ncrease in sales is expected this sea son. It is learned that Messrs. Bowland and Kuttrell will be the managers of the Vidalia Tobacco Warehouse and Hester, Winstead and Hester will be at the Georgia Tobacco Warehouse. All of these gentlemen are well known in this city and section as capable and efficient tobacco men. It is also learned that the same auctioneers as last year will be at these two houses. BILL STOPS POSTING MARRIAGE LICENSES i After leading a vigorous fight on the floor of the Senate for the pas sage of his bill to allow contracting couples over 21 years old to marry without posting notices Senator Ralph Rosser, of LaFayette, saw the passage cf the bill by an overwhelming vote yestrday. i The vote was 41 to sin favor of its passage. The bill now will be presented to the House of Representatives and if given approval there and is signed by the governor, it will beconi? 9 iaw. j The present law requires that a five ' day notice be posted of application 1 for license to marry, regardless of age. This, Senator Rosser claimed, worked a hardship on many couples who are “old enough to know their own minds.” In defending the measure, he de j elared that in many cases couples are ! leaving the state to b married, and i the law sometimes r' jits in mar i riages being called of, i A vigorous opposit n to the bill was led by Senator H. H. Elders and a small minoritv. I Senator Rosser, the author of the bill, is the youngr-- 1 member of the State. Senate. H 26 years old.
