A natural intra-party schism in the ranks of Democrats of fieorgia resulted in the development of the “iirogres- sive” wing, composed of public men who wore determined not. to he shackled any longer by machine politics and hy the fetters of tradition and purposeless precedent. The progressives let the light of publicity illuminate public af fairs. They enacted legislation which ended corporation rule in Georgia. They took the government bark to the peo ple, Those who opposed these policies became known, and are still known, as reactionaries. They nrc the ultra-con servatives, the standpatters, who live in the past, who believe that because somebody else did something a half a century ago the same thing should be done to-day. As the Chinese worship ancestors, they revere the past. The progressives, on the other hand, are inarching on, abreast with the times. Rut these reactionaries do not like the inherent stigma of their name. They say that they, too, are progressives. Didn’t Gov. Slaton declare to the con vention, “I am a progressive," while a snicker went around the hall?—Macon News. The above is a fair specimen of the tommyrot which some of the Iioke Smith organs are accustomed to indulge from time to time when they try to he nasty. The sneering reference to Gov. Slaton is a case in point; yet if there is a man in public life to-day who deserves to he classed ns a real progressive it is Gov. Slaton -not in the puling and meaningless sense that the term is employed by those who would claim for the Smith faction all that is pure in purpose and valuable in achieve ment, hut in constructive statesmanship and results accomplished. Under the latter head Mr. Sluton lias to the credit of his administration as Governor some uf the best and moat useful measures that have been enacted into law during the oast twenty-live years—measures that were unanimously indorsed by the late State Convention. Why the same body of Democrats indorsed Gov. Sla ton’s policies while refusing him the nomination for the Senatorship can be best explained, perhaps, l>v the late Mr. Keldur, who is said to have "also ran," snoru) nu noruLAit nlocan FOR "WAR TIMER." The advice to "trade at home" is al ways good, and particularly so at. this time. If everybody in Rome and Floyd county would trade at home we would have a prosperity that even a European war could not shake. Ruying away from home is always an expensive proposition. The mon ey that, goes into railroad fare, ex press charges. etc., might as well be saved, and the profit go to the people who help make you a living. Atlanta is never going to do anything to help Rome, and no Rome woman, in the present emergency, ought to spend a dollar inlying goods in Atlanta, or any place else, except at home. If the war could get our people into the buy-at- home habit it would lie worth thousands of dollars to them and to their home merchants. — Rome Tribune-Herald. The policy advocated by our Rome contemporary is the same doctrine The Herald and Advertiser has been preach ing for yenrs. If the many thousands of dollars that llow annually into the colters of Atlanta merchants from Newnan buyers were kept at home this town and community would be infin itely better etf. The lure of Atlanta is a funny thing, anyway. Article hy article and dollar for dollar, the aver age Newnan shopper can save money every day in the year hy trading with the home merchant, and obtain at the same time goods of equal quality. The serious point to be considered is (hat when a dollar is sent away for any article that may be purchased at home the community is that much poorer. There is no finer spirit of patriotism than that which encourages and patron- ices home enterprises. Senoia Enterprise-Gazette: "Before the election Senator Smith said he would see to it that the Government would come to the aid of Georgia far mers and that they would get 12 or 15 cents per pound for this cotton crop. Now he says about the only remedy is in diversifying the crop next year. Di versification is mighty good doctrine and we would like to see the farmers follow the suggestion, like the politi cians followed him at Macon; hut the first thing they need is something to relieve the situation for the present crop. We hope those Washington offi- ciuls will do something, and do it quick. The crop is on hand, and many poor pie must dispose of what they peo| nuvt lave." According to a recent report of the II. S. Census Bureau there are 236,271 farms in Georgia, and the annual cost of fertilizers used on these farms amounts to S16.S60.149. The report further shows that. Georgia uses more commercial fertilisers than any State in the Union, and also shows the lar gest gain in purchases during the past ten years, the total cost for fertilizers ten years ago being $11,121,620 less than in 1914. During the same period the cost of fertilizers for the entire na tion increased from Sod.OOo.IWO to $115,- 000,000. Express Company Makes Low Rate on Meat Shipments. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. K.—The markets of Atlanta are open to the farmers of Georgia who wish to ship fresh meats to Atlanta. This has been made pos sible hy an ordinance adopted hy the city of Atlanta which permits any such fresh meats, when bearing proper cer tificate signed by the shipper, to be sent to Atlanta, without the inspection and approval of an authorized State meat inspector. It is provided, how ever, that before being offered for sale fresh meats shall he inspected and ap proved by one of the meat inspectors for the city of Atlanta, who will visit each depot in Atlanta in the morning and afternoon of each day for the pur pose of making this inspection. With the city markets and the city homes of Atlanta open to such ship ments and the Southern Express Co. offering low rates and prompt delivery in Atlanta, the farmers are afforded a wonderful market for their meats. What is true of Atlanta will probably he true of other cities of the State in a short while. Atlanta has long been an open market for fruits, vegetables and other country produce, hut it is only since the adoption of the ordinance re ferred to above that it lias been pos sible to express meats to this city with satisfaction. Wear Cotton Goods Made in Griffin. Griffin News and Sun. Tailors in Gridin are busy making Griffin men Griffin clothes of cotton grown in the vicinity of Gridin and manufactured in Gridin. One mill superintendent reports that he has every available loom in his im mense mill running on one class of suiting for men’s clothes. Local peo ple are doing their part towards keep ing money at home. The women of Griffin are getting ready to turn out their clothing made of Griffin products. Terry cloth, the material from which the famous Griffin Turkish towels are made, will be worn by Griffin women this fall and bids fair to become a very fashionable fabric. This goods makes up beautifully in Russian blouse suits. In this connection it may he stated that M. J. Daniel is among the first to carry out the suggestion of wearing clothes of cotton grown at home and manufactured in the city. He is wear ing to-day a neat and nobby suit made of Daytona suiting which was manu factured by the Griffin Mills and tail ored by a Griffin tailor. Dizzy? Bilious? Constipated? I)r.

Big South Georgia Farmer Will Abandon Cotton. Dawson, Sept. H.—J. W. Tilley, one of the largest planters in Southwest Georgia, is making a proposition to his tenants and renters that will not only help them tide over the present situa tion, but make them and the county more prosperous when the war crisis ends. Helms proposed to his renters to sur render their lease notes if they will agree to remain with him and plant on'y five acres of cotton to the plow, he agreeing to furnish them the actual necessities and take for his rent a part of the crops they grow, such as hay, corn, oats, potatoes, hogs and cattle. The same proposition is being made by Mr. Tilley to his croppers or share ten ants. J. E. Wilkes, who haB marketed sev eral hundred bales of cotton every sea son in the past, has stated that he will net plant a stalk of cotton next season. He will devote his land to the produc tion of foodstuffs for man and beast. Po-Do-Lax Banishes Pimples.

As regards the new project to finance probably 4,600,000 to 5,000,000 hales of the new crop by emergency currency to approximately the amount of $200,000,- 000 based on warehouse receipts, it is believed to be an admirable thing which will go far to restore the equilibrium in the cotton business and prevent the marketing of large quantities of cotton at unprolitably low prices. It will very probably lessen the pressure of hedges on the ma'ket. It will be conducive to the farmer’s holding his cotton until he can sell it, or most, of it, to advantage. Of course, there is bound to ho some selling at once in order to pay debts, but probably there will he a spirit of accommodation at the South to meet the extraordinary demand for the time, and this will go a long way toward eas ing any natural pressure that might otherwise exist.

Big Farm Leased on Condition That No Cotton Be Planted. Griffin Nows and Sua. Mr. J. W. Gresham has just leased a 312-acre farm on condition that the les sor shall plant no cotton, the crops to be restricted to food and forage. Mr. Gresham plans to make this a stock and dairy farm of the first mag nitude. This is the first instance known of a lease being made on these terms, and it is understood that the necessity for a movemei t of this kind was con templated even before the war broke out. To many progressive landowners the war has only emphasized the necessity of having other crops than cotton to fall back upon, to supply food for man and beast.
