Within the past jour years Bartow county has done some 'excellent work in road building, ail ojt which is attracting favorable attention jand meeting with popular favor. But the roads are not completed im provements. They need surfacing to !Insure longer durability. We are sure that this suggestion will meet with the approval of the members of the board .themselves, as it does with a large j number of large tax payers, who have ,no word of criticism to offer but that • which is to really help the board un i derstand that the people are behind it Hin its efforts to furnish lasting high ! ways. j In many respects the roads of this .county are a model, a perfect pattern to go by, when it comes to directness, width, and grade. The only thing need ed is that treatment which will insure a long life of enjoyment for those who are to use the roads. Is it not then possible to make more permanent the work that has been done? The pleasure, and the really useful purpose which such roads as the Taylorsville, Euharlee and Cass- j ville roads are now furnishing, ought to be extended as Tong as possible. Having given the people a taste of a ; good road please, Mr. Commissioners, i apply that treatment now to each of these roads, and such others as may j he undertaken, that will keep them j smooth, free of ruts, and durable for ! a maximum of time. We do not wish to tell how to do It. The members of the board know, much better than those who of us whb have not had road building experience, what to do to keep our roads in good condition. But nearly all of know that 'if the roads when they are laid out, graded and made of proper width can be covered over with a suitable material, evenly distributed, and by the use of a drag after rains and show ers can be maintained at a high state cf efficiency for aq indefinite length of time. For the board to do this will but add to the many complimentary expres sions which have gone forth concern ing the board and their work in be half of the county and we sincerely hope that it will thus give us reason to furnish this additional cause for gratitude. The Railways In War. Under the above caption the News Scimitar of Memphis has the follow- j ing to say editorially: “While the railways of the United States are preparing to perform a very important part in the war, it is high time to consider legislation which will free the transportation lines of this ration from some of the impediments which bar the way to a complete co ordination of effort. “The News Scimitar considers as first and foremost the multiplicity of Tegulatory bodies, which hamper com mon action, and interfere with that larger understanding, which is neces sary to complete efficiency. “That an interstate railroad should bo subjected to the orders of two, four or six different commissions—orders which frequently conflict in intent and ■create endless confusion—is a condi tion undesirable at any time, and es pecially so now that any conflict may become a national menace. “The railway managements have Remember THE OSMENT CO.

H. McCauley, a well-known and highly respected farmer of Dade county, Geor gia, in talking to the Tanlac represen tative at the Live & Let Live Drug Company, Chattanooga. ' Just think of a farmer having to live on rav/ eggs and the like. Farm ing is hard work, and a man ought to have plenty of good, substantial food tc keep going. But raw eggs was just about ail I could eat, for my stomach was in such a bad shape it couldn’t stand much of anything. If I did eat much 1 would have to pay for it after ward. The pit of my stomach was as sore as a boil and at times I would al most choke with gas on my stomach. I got so weak I could hardly stand on my feet —much less work. 1 was con stipated most of the time and had dreadful dizzy spells. I’ve always said farm life was the happiest life of all but I tell you, a man in the shape I was in couldn’t get much enjoyment out of it. "I tried one kind of medicine after another, but none of it did me any good until I got hold of Tanlac. Y be gan taking it and felt better from the first three or four doses. My appetite picked up and I began to eat things I hadn’t touched in months, and every thing tasted good and agreed with me. “When I began taking Tanlac I weighed 137 pounds, but I've been gain ing steadily ever since and now I weigh 152 pounds, which is a ghin of fifteen pounds. I am not bothered with pains in my stomach any longer and I feel good in every w r ay—just like I had been made all over again. I’m_ not constipated like I was, am no longer nervous, and feel stronger tlian 1 have in years. I am now able to work in the field from sunrise to sunset, I go to beef early and sleep good all night, and wake up next morning feeling like a sixteen-year-old. I’ve taken four bdt iles of the medicine. “Tanlac has made a real farmer of me again, and you don't know how happy I am. I just feel like telling ev eryone I see what a wonderful thing 11 is.” Tanlac is sold by Young Bros, in Cartersville, Bowdoin Drug Cos. in Adairsville, Dr. T. L.

Phone 122 Cartersville, :: Georgia WHAT SOME GEOR GIA AND ALABAMA LANDS DID IN 1916 By Andrew M. Soule, Pres. Ga. State College Of Agriculture Reference has been made to the work cf the test farms conducted jjo-oper atively by the Central of Georgia Rail* way and the State Colleges of Agri culture at Athens, Ga., and Auburn, Alabama. This work has now been in progress five years, and in 1916 the area embraced was 992 acres. The ob ject of these test farms, briefly stated, is to show that the application of sci entific. principles to the cultivation of the land in Georgia and Alabama would increase the yields ordinarily obtained by the average farmer, and that it is possible through a rotation of crops to increase the fertility of these lands, secure a larger return per acre, reduce the amount of man labor and increase the horse labor. It appears that a net profit of $21.30 per acre was made on the total area cultivated last year. Man labor, horse labor, fertilizers, rent of land, cost of seed and all costs of making the crop were charged against it. It is noteworthy that the longer these farms have been operated the greater has become the average in come and the less the average cost of the crop per acre, showing that by following the system of farming out lined by the Colleges, the lands have been built up. Some of the test farms in 1916 show a loss, but every one is familiar with the conditions which ob tained during that season. The exces sive floods were responsible. Credit for the large profit obtained last year is due in part to the abnor mal price V>f cotton, which sold on an average for 17.7 cents per pound, and the seed for $56.00 per ton. However, even if cotton had been selling at prices which have ruled for several years past, the profit per acre cn the best managed test farms would still have been very substantial. Farmers who desire to study in detail the re sults here briefly summarized .can easi ly secure a copy of the test farm report on application to the Agricultural De partment of the Central of Georgia Railway, at Savannah. SPECIAL DAY IN THE BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOLS. The Baptist Sunday schools of the slate, more than eighteen hundred in number, will have a special day on *:he first Sunday in Jung, at whi<!h time there will be a special offering for the charity work of the Georgia Baptist Hospital. This day is observed every year. The superintendents and teachers of all the Baptist Sunday schools of this county are putting forth unusual ef fort to make this offering the largest they have ever had. What This Money Is For. The Georgia Baptist Hospital re ceives the sick from every section of the state. There is scarcely a county in the state that has not sometime dur ing the past four years sent some of their sick poor and dependent ones to this hospital, where they have been treated free. More than fifty crippled and deform ed children have had their little limbs straightened and many of them made to walk. The most of these were from the homes of the poor, who were un able to furnish hospital care for these little ones. More than five hundred people have received' medical and hos pital treatment free, and more than a thousand have received free medical treatment, paying only a small part of the actual cost of their boqrd while in the hospital. It is for this work the Sunday schools are asked to make a special offering on June 3. This Is True Christianity. A Christian is Christ-like, and Chris tianity is doing the things which Christ did. One of the things which He devoted more of His time and thought to was in treating the sick and relieving the suffering, causing the lame to walk and the blind to see. This is the work to which the Georgia Bap tist Hospital is devoting its efforts, and while its aims are primarily to care for the poor, yet Its efforts are limited only by the gifts-of the church es and Sunday schools. None are ever turned from its doors except for a lack of rooms and funds. Here every class, condition, and creed are welcomed. Her© all can find op portunity to express the spirit of j Jesus in their gifts. To fail here is to fail in the fundamentals of Christian ity, for here we are providing for those of our own land and country. “He that provideth not for his own hath denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.’’ $20,000 will be needed this year from the Sunday schools to care for all the sick poor who are coming to the Geor gia Baptist Hospital. every super intendent work the plan which he has received, and this sum will be raised. Jesus will say to all who give, “As oft as ye have done it unto one of the least of these sick ones, ye have'-done it unto Me.” OBITUARY MRS. J. M. THORNTON. Mrs, J. M.
