I Consolidated with Newnan News January. 1915. * NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY, ^ 1915 Vol. 50—No. 21 FARMER. CONSIDER YOUR FEED DILL! Why throw away 30 per cent, of your feed when you can bring your corn to us in the shuck, and after all expenses are paid (you furnishing bags) you will have 21 per cent, more and better feed. This feed will contain molasses, to make it dustless and well-balanced for heavy-worked stock. If you will stop and consider what your feed is now costing you, basing corn at $1 per bushel, you will find that it is costing you $35.72 per ton. By having it ground it will reduce the price $6.54 per ton, and, in addition, give you a better feed. Won’t this saving of $6.54 be good pay for bringing 25 bushels of corn to us for grinding into feed? This is also a very superior feed for dairy cows. For your information we give the analysis of cobs and shucks when ground: Cob - Shucks Protein. 2.4 2.5 Fat. .5 .7 Carbohydrates 54.9 28.3 All we ask is a trial.

Oh, the Hills of Faith in their g-owna of Rreen That smile at an April sun. Are the hills of life, when the imps of strife Are dead to their deeds undone:— They rise from the j?ray of yesterdays. And, living: the dreams of Youth, They tfive to the soul in quest of a goal Hope, and the courage of Truth. Oh. the Hills of Faith, in their robes of brown, That croon with the close of day. Are the hills that thrill through every ill in trust of an endless May; — For the Hills of Faith are boundless in scope— They live, and with strength sublime To guide hearts that stand in each dreary lane. And shuli through the years of time. Oh. the Hills of Faith in their shawls of white That look on a sensate sky. Are the hills that call, e'en through Fate’s dark pall. To the heights that never die; For the Hills of Faith are Temples of God, Built high on this cold earth's breast. ”'here the weary may, at the end of day. Find love and eternal rest. —John Scott. If You Were Your Mother And were in her shoes would you like to wear them 366 days in the year? If you are always considerate of your mother you will not need this array of ques tions ;--but many families might pin them in a conspicuous place and read them regularly. If you were your mother— Would you like to have your atten tion called to your double chin, always a sensitive topic with the woman who takes on flesh with years? Would you feel merry at heart when your daughter bade you stand up straight? Perhaps the slight stoop of the shoulders has come from carrying many domestic burdens in the days be fore "father” wa3 as prosperous as he is to day. Would you like to wash dishes three times a day 30 that “daughter” might keep up her piano practice, and then have rag-time and popular songs come floating out to the kitchen instead of scales and exercises?

Would you like the daughter who for gets to send her collars to the laundry, her gloves to be cleaned or her ribbons to be pressed, borrow these little ac cessories from ■your own stock of care fully hoarded and neatly kept raiment? Would you like to be held responsible for sending Mary’ suit to the tailor's, Bess’ gloves to the dyer and father’s boots to the shoemaker, when each and every one of these individuals pass the aforementioned shops on their way to store or office? Would you like to hear at regular in tervals how beautifully Mrs. Jones sets her table and serves her meals—always with an air of individioua comparison? Perh>ps you know that Mrs. Jones ha° a servant while you have none, or the Jones girls make pretty centre-pieces and look after the fern di3h for their mother. Would you like to act as an alarm clock for the whole family of grown and half-grown children, and receive groans and grunts instead of cheerful, “Yes, mother,” or "Thank you, dear,” in return for performing this office? Perhaps you would sometimes feel that your own day would start better if you might lie in bed until breakfast was ready, or that if only Minnie would get up ten or fifteen minutes sooner she could flit about the kitchen with you. You see so little of her since she works downtown. Would you like to have the photo graphs of your old-time friends picked away in the secretary drawer to make room for the latest stage favorites on the parlor mantel, and the few old- fashioned oil paintings and water-colors you prize tucked into the attic? Would you not feel more than ever that you wanted to keep green the memory of friends who were not captious, whose photographs and handiwork bring back the happy days of your own girlhood? Would you like to be told, when young folks are coming, that you need not bother to dress and put in an appear ance? Would you not detect the truth behind the excuse—that your daugh ters were perhaps a bit ashamed of you, or feared that their friends might be bored by the presence of a chaperon? Would it not make you very happy if some day the daughter who wonders why your hands look so ill would bring in her manicuring set and gently manip ulate your work-worn fingers? Would it not make you look—and feel—young er if the pretty daughter whose daintily waved hair you secretly envy should spend half an hour dressing your hair, in which the white is beginning to show? And would you not feel younger and happier and stronger if your daughters and sons introduce you to their friends as a comrade rather than a household drudge? Look into your dear old mother’s face some day, when she is leaning back in her favorite chair, and read the answer to these questions in her care- lined face and drooping shoulders!

A true tonic. l s ot adults aud children. Sue Fast-Vanishing Ranks of Gray. Savannah News. It brings sadness merely to suggest that the twenty-fifth annual reunion of Confederate veterans, to be held this year at Richmond, may be their last great gathering. It will soon be a half century since the last shot of the War Between the States was fired. April 9th of this year will be the fiftieth an niversary of the surrender of General Lee. Fifty years is more than the average lifetime, it is but twenty years less than the proverbial threescore years and ten, and since most of the soldiers of the Confederate armies were at least within two or three years of their twentieth birthday when they went to the war, it is plain that the veterrns soon will be very few. And yet the South does not like to look forward to the time when they will be so few that the great annual reunion cannot be held, when the pa rade of the old men in gray will be par ticipated in by but a handful. The veterans themselves face the future as gamely as they faced the armies of the North. They were ready to die for the South fifty years ago, and are glad of the added half-ceniury of life that haB been theirs. Their steps may be slow er, their carriage leBS erect, but the Bame old fire is in the eyes of the sur vivors as one by one their comrades drop out of the ranks. The last great reunion! Whether it be this year or next year, or ten years hence, it will be a sad aB well as a pleasant meeting. The armies of the sixties melted into carps, the corps shrunk into divisions, the divisions gave place to brigades, and now the brigades are reduced to the size of regiments. Soon there will be but companies left, and as the ranks thin and are closed up the once great armed strength of the Confederacy will be but a short line of men, all old, all still brave, all ready for the call that will leave behind them not one comrade, but only the memory of them, which their Bons and daugh ters will keep ever green.

There is a wide difference in the views expressed by leading farmers as to the best method to be employed this year, as related to the cotton acreage and the use of fertilizers. Some farmers open ly advocate the policy of using no com mercial fertilizers under the cotton crop for this year. They believe this is the shortest and surest route to a re duction in the acreage. Another class, equally as intelligent and honest in conviction, favor a slight reduction in the acreage, and the yse of something like half the amount of fer tilizers formerly used. They contend that, owing to the drouth of last sum mer, the plant did not take up the plant food in the soil, and that much of this will be available this year. It seems to be the policy of this class to make a slight reduction in acreage, and an ap preciable reduction in the use of com mercial fertilizers. Another class advocates cutting the acreage fully fifty per cent, and using an ample supply of commercial fertili zers. This plan, they say, offers the best solution of the problem. In the meantime, while no price has been fixed on fertilizers for the present year, it is stated by some who are in position to know that the price will be increased over the ruling price that has existed for several years. The manu facturers claim that since the quantity used will certainly be curtailed, it wilt cost them more to keep their plant and force going than it would if sales were normal. If it develops that the price is increased, this fact would result in a further decrease in the use of fertili zers, and a reduction in acreage. Thus it will be seen that there are numbers of angles to the present situa tion. as related to the cotton acreage for the incoming crop.
