The Herald and Advertiser NEWNAN, FRIDAY, JULY 17. Attention, “Fans!” Do you want to continue baseball in Newnan? Do you want to win the pen nant'.' Are you satisfied with the record made by the team this year? If so, help along the cause by making a generous subscription to the baseball association. The directors must raise money at once, and every man in New- nan should willingly contribute to this fund. It takes a goodly sum to run a team, and the small attendance during the entire season has further embar rassed tho baseball association. The di rectors have made good their promise to put a winning team in the Held, and Newnan is now perched at the top of the ladder, where she will stay until the season ends if lovers of the game will furnish the money. Every contri bution will help the cause, and the di rectors will call on every man in New nan. Loosen up, boys; don’t be a "tightwad.” Remember, LaGrange comes Monday for a four-game series, and the old park should be packed during these games, as there will be a "hot time in the old town” when we take LaGrange into camp. President McWhorter Has a Word For Boys’ Corn Club. To the Members of the Coweta Coun ty Boys’ Corn Club: I received notice a" few days ago from Mr. H. G. Wiley, demonstration agent for Coweta coun ty, of my election to the presidency of the Coweta County Boys’ Corn Club. 1 wish to express, through the columns of The Herald and Advertiser, my ap preciation for the confidence and trust reposed in electing me to this important office, and promise, on my part, to use every effort to promote the interest of this great organization. I trust that we may not in the least become discouraged over the prospect of a small yield this year in some sec tions of the county, but that everyone will remain in the contest to the finish. You know, boys, success does not de pend on never failing, but on rising ev ery time you fail. Remember that you are in one of the biggest businesses in the State; for, verily, nothing has done more in the past few years to increase the material wealth of Georgia than the few thousand boys and girls enlist ed in the Boys’ Corn Clubs and Girls’ Canning Clubs; and the past is only the beginning of what this great movement means to Georgia and to the South. It is the ambition of your president and secretary, assisted by our efficient county demonstrator, Mr. H. G. Wiley, Boon to plan for the securing of prizes for the best yields. We trust by an other year more of the boys will enter the three-acre contest—corn, peas and cotton—in order that they may have a chance to win more of the prizes offered by the various organizations. We trust that each boy will keep an accurate account of the cost of produc tion on each acre. This, within itself, is a great factor in the boy’s education. Due notice will be given before the next meeting of the clubs, and when such notice is given we want to urge everyone to be present. Thanking you again for the honor conferred upon me, in my election to this office, 1 am Yours truly, T. N. McWhorter. Sharpsburg, Ga., July 15th. Sow Winter Cover Crops This Fall. There is not a thinking farmer in the county who does not know that the con tinuous cotton dropping which we have followed for many years has been detri mental to our farming lands. By this system the land has been robbed of its fertility, and much of it will no longer produce profitable crops until the fer tility is restored. The one element lacking in nearly all of our cotton-sick lands is humus. Restore this and we will see our farms grow profitable crops and our farmers prosper, hut continue to lessen the already small supply of humus and we will see our crops grow smaller and less profitable, and our farms abandoned. The progressive farmer wants to know how this can be done most rapidly and most economically. One method is to adopt a good system of crop rota tion, and adhere to it. This system Bhould include at least two leguminous crops to be turned under out of three years. This is a very sure and inex pensive method of renovating wornout lands, but naturally it is somewhat slow. Another method is to grow as much live stock on the farm as can be han dled, always putting the manure back on the land from which the hay supply was cut. This will cut the fertilizer bills in half and will leave the land in shape to make a better crop next year. This method will call for the outlay of some money in the beginning, but as the herd gradually increases the money invested will return, bearing a good rate of interest. A third method of supplying humus is by sowing winter cover crops of the legume family. This is a most excel lent method for the Southern farmer, because of our most excellent climate. We usually have enough rainfall in the fall to bring these crops up and make a fair growth before the winter freezes begin. September is the best time to sow these crops, but good results are occasionally obtained by sowing at oth er times. The Bureau of Plant Industry, through the agency of the farm demon stration work, expects to have as much as one million acres sown this fall in the three legumes—crimson clover, burr clover and vetch—in the Southeastern cotton States. Coweta county should contribute her full share of this acre age. No farmer should try more than a few acres this fall, but by all means make a start. If you can't do any bet ter, sow at least a quarter of an acre; then take seeds and inoculated soil from this and sow a greater area next year. Every farmer who has a demonstration plot of cotton should sow it in one of the legumes in September. Please do this. Seeds can be obtained from near ly any reliable seed house if ordered early, but the demand is going to be so great that you are liable not to get any seed if you delay ordering. No one should expect to make the ground rich by plowing under a single crop of green manure, for we must re member that we can’t build up in a year or two what it took 20 or 30 years to tear down. For years and years we have been literally mining our Boils, and it is now time we were making some deposits if we expect to continue our harvests. If the Northern farmer can enrich his soil by growing legumes on his land, which is covered with snow all winter, surely we can enrich ours more rapidly by growing the same crops dur ing our mild winters. H, G. Wiley, Demonstration Agent. Mexican Dictator Abdicates. Mexico City, July 15. — Gen. Vic- toriano Huerta resigned t'rum the pro visional presidency of the Mexican re public to-night and his resignation was accepted by the Senate and Chamber of Deputies by a vote of 121 to 17. Francisco Carbajal then was appoint ed President and took the oath of office at the joint session of the Deputies and Senators. Huerta’s resignation was submitted through the department of foreign re lations. It was read in the House and was greeted with cries of "Viva Huerta.” It then was referred to the joint committees of gobernacion. After brief consideration, the com mittees reported, accepting the resig nation, in the following terms: "Article I. We accept the resigna tion presented by Gen. Victoriano Huerta as President of the Mexican United States. "Article 2. We call Licentiate Fran cisco Carbajal, minister of foreign re lations, to assume the Presidency.” A ballot was taken and the joint ses sion approved the report. Mexico City, July 15.—Gen. Huerta and Gen. Blanquet left the capital to night. They noarded a train on the Mexican railway a few miles beyond the city. It is thought they are going to Puerto Mexico. Before his departure Huerta went to the national palace to pay his respects to President Carbajal. There was complete lack of disorder in the capital to-night and the theaters and cafes were crowded. The populace now is hopeful that peace is in sight. Huerta’s popularity apparently in creased greatly after his resignation, as Mexicans now look on him as a good loser. Resolutions on the Death of Mrs. Dallas Moore Summers. In Isaiah, 53:10 we find: “Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him;” and so it pleased the divine Father to re lieve our sister of the sufferings of this world and take her unto Himself on June 25, 1914. For nearly a year Mrs. Summers had been unable to leave her bed, and at times suffered intense pain. Yet she bore all the enforced suffering and ill ness with a fortitude and bravery born only of an unfaltering trust in Him “who doeth all things well.” Never a complaint at her lot was uttered, but only the hope that she might have strength to endure the physical suffer ing, if the end were long delayed. She was deeply appreciative of every kind ness shown her by her friends and neighbors, and but a few days before she passed away she said, “Everybody is good to me, and if I had a million dollars my wants could not be more fully supplied.” A good neighbor, a faithful companion, and a patient Buf- ferer, she accepted whatever came to her as the very best; and quietly, away from the noise and strife of profession alism, she practiced the gentle arts of womanhood, making a home cheerful and happy for her husband and children. Mrs. Summers was born April 22, 1850, and early in girlhood united with New Hope Baptist church and was bap tized by Rev. R. W. Hamrick. She was married to Mr. E. E. Sum mers in 1871 and moved to Newnan, placing her church membership in the First Baptist church here. Four chil dren were born into her home, two of whom died in childhood. The other two, Mr. Percy Summers and Mrs. Iva S. Massey, and her husband, survive her. Whereas, our sister has left this earthly tabernacle and entered the “house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens;” therefore, be it re solved— 1. That the church has lost a helpful and useful member. 2. That she will be greatly missed by the Woman’s Missionary Society, of which she was a faithful member. 3. That we, as a society, extend to the bereaved family our deepest sym pathy, and pray God’s blessings on them. 4. That these resolutions be spread on the minutes of this society, that a copy be furnished the family, and also published in the city papers. Mrs. T. B. Davis, Mrs. R. F.

Branch, who, in spite of physical weakness, preached an excellent ser mon. The relatives and many friends of Mrs. Robert Powledge were pained to hear last Friday that she had suffered a paralytic stroke at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Henry Hunt, near Allie. Her son, Mr. Leander Powledge, with his sister, Mrs. Parks Sewell, left immediately to visit her. Miss Addie Sewell, after a visit of several weeks to relatives in Talbot county, returned home last week. On Friday last a jolly company, com prising men, women, children and babies, left Lone Oak for an outing on White Oak. Wagons, buggies and auto mobiles were in demand, and tents, fishing apparatus, provisions and cook ing utensils were provided. A happy day was spent by all, and only a few returned home for the night, those re maining enjoying the novel experience of a night in the woods. Mesdames J. T. Latimer and G. G. Culpepper spent Saturday in the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Culpepper, near Lutherville, where Mrs. Feriby Cul pepper has been in feeble health for some weeks. Little Miss Ruth Ponder returned to her home in Gratitvillc last Sunday, af ter a visit to her cousins in Lone Oak. Miss Nellie i’onder, of Grantvillo, attended services at Prospect last Sun day. Mrs. Jim' Spradlin and little son, of Wilcox county, are visiting the family of Mr. Tillman Truitt and other Lone Oak relatives. Everybody in Lone Oak is delighted to learn of an improvement in tho con dition <*f Mr. E. C. Culpeper, who is still under treatment in Greenville. After a serious battle of some weeks against an attack of typhoid fever, Mrs. Warren Culpepper is reported on the road to recovery, the trained nurse having been dismissed early in the present week. Mrs. W. P. Lee, we regret to learn, is suffering intensely from a carbuncle between her neck and shoulder. Little Miss Virginia Culpepper is visiting the little daughter of Dr. Archer, in Lutherville. Mr. Will Freeman, of South Georgia, who has a number of relatives in and around Lone Oak, was a guest in the homo of Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Lee last Sunday. Although it has been forty years since they had met, ho was so little changed as to bo instantly recog nized by his cousin, Mrs. John T. Bar- row. July 15th.
