Acl Valorem Tax *
Rate For the State
Fixed at Five Mills
The state tax rate for 1923 was lixed
Saturday at five mills, or five dollars on
each’ thousand dob.irs wot tit of*prop
erty. by action of Gavert.or Walker ar.d
Comptroller General William A
Wright. Of the five mill assessment,
4.90 mills goes ;io general purposes, in
cluding the support of the common
schools, and .10 mills to the sinking
fund to retire matured" bonds of the
state.
The assessment is the maximum per
mitted by law, and applies to all prop
erty in the state subject to taxation,
ad valorem.
Comptroller General Wright stated
Saturday that the tax digests show a
decrease of $7,000,000, chiefly in Ihe
assessment of real estate, which made
it necessary to impose the maximum
rate. The railroads assessed their
property at $166,275,968, or an increase
of $1,259,687 in valuation.
The comptroller general denied the
recent statement in the legislature by
Representative Bussey, 0 f Crisp coun
ty, that the railroads in Georgia assess
their property at a valuation ofi only
22 per cent. He stated that an error
was made in computing the rate thru
overlooking the fact that some of the
most valuable railroad property in
Georgia, including the Western & At
lantic, Georgia Railroad, and Augusia
& Savannah, are exempt from state
taxes.

WINTER is fast APPROACHING
And, whether you desire it or not, the question of your COAL SUPPLY will soon
confront you, and the source from whence it comes should be and inevitably will
be, one ot paramount importance tp you.
There is a VAST DIFFERENCE in coals, and when the weather is bitter
cold, it is very important that you have the very best coals obtainable, as many
people die of Pneumonia and Influenza, contracted in a “cold home’’ simply be
cause they bought coal that would not keep them warm.
We offer you quality and real service 365 days in the year, and at the lowest
possible cost, consistent with legitimate business If we cannot merit your confi
dence and your patronage we cannot expect to gain and hold it.
Telephone 73 if you desire Quality Coal and thirty-six inches to the yard.
There are hundreds of JELLICO
COAL MINES as well as oth
er brands. Some of them are good
and some of them are rotten, and
because a coal may look good to
you, is no reason why it is what it
appears to be to you.
The proof of the pudding is
the eating thereof, and no living
man can satisfactorily judge
what a coal is, until he has had
proper opportunity to burn it
When the weather is sure enough
cold and he most needs a sure
enough good fire.
You may buy coal cheapei
from other sources than we can
sell it to you, for there are good
coals, better coals, and best coals,
and we handle only the “BEST"
-and it naturally costs more.
We value the integrity of our
business far above a few paltry
dollars, and the fact that we have

Poison Only Remedy
To Stop Ravages
Cotton Caterpillar
The boll weevil is a terrible enemy
to cotton, but for quirk action he isn't
in it with the caterpillar at the pres
ent stage of the crop.
And the caterpillar is working great
hjivoc in various sections of the state.
He has showed up in Bartow in va
rious localities, but the farmers affect
ed have been wise enough to get busy
with calcium arsenate, and
this is done promptly it is easily con
trolled.
Watch your fields closely for this
pest, for they can clean out a big field
In a few hours. Poison 13 the only
vh!ng that will stop them.
And it is necessary to remember that
calcium arsenate is POISON, and msut
te used according to directions.
The boll weevil and cateripllar to
gether ought to make cotton a good
price this fall, but high price won’t do
us any good if we let these two pests
get all of it.
Whatever you may think about cal-
| cium arsenate for the boll weevil, you
] know it is a necessary thing In fight
ing the caret-pillar. Be ready for it
the minute it makes its first appear
ance in your fields, for there is then
not a moment to be lost.
If you do not have the poison on hand
get a supply without fail—it means
money to you when you start gathering
your cotton.
