NEWNAN HERALD NEW NAN, FIRDAY, FEB. 26. ONE DOLLAR A YEAR IH AnVANCK. OUR ATLANTA LETTER. Atlanta, Feb. 22. — The Georgia Anti- Saloon League is preparing for a vig orous campaign this year to restrict locker clubs to a legitimate Bpherc and prevent their violating the law by sell ing intoxicants, and also to put the "near beer" saloons out of business. Rev. G. W. Eichelbcrgcr, superintend ent of the league, sayB steps will be taken to prevent express companies transporting liquor into Georgia. The attitude of Senator Thomas W. Hard wick on the prohibition question has brought forth a great deal of criticism front prohibitionists, following his vote on the question of prohibiting the sale of liquor in the District of Columbia He voted with the opposition on a mo tion to suspend the rules to introduce an amendment providing for prohibition in Washington, despite the fact that he is not openly an anti-prohibitionist. Mr. Hardwick's defiant split with his fellow- Democrata on the Government ship purchase bill also cost him the confi dence of many friends, especially as he had made his campaign on the claim that he was closely in sympathy with the Administration und a friend of Wil- Bon and hiB policies. "Grow truck, if you want to make real money on the farm,” is the advice of the State Department of Agriculture. The department haB recently been making some careful investigations along these lines, and linds not only that Georgia truck sells readily and at good prices outside of tho State, but that Georgians themselves are spend ing something like $11,000,000 a year for vegetables and fruits grown in other States. Georgia is paying $2,- 000,000 a year for 2,000,000 bushels of Irish potatoes. An acre of ground will make anywhere from 100 to 200 bushels, at an average price of $1 a bushel. The same, or even better results, can be obtained in growing sweet potatoes, of which Georgia is buying 700,000 bush els every year outside of the State. Georgia is likewise importing approxi mately 400,000 bushels of onions. Geor gia growers can get $1 a bushel for these the year round, and make as high as 200 bushels on un acre. Eurly corn, always in demand, will bring at least $100 an acre, and leave the ground for the production of turnipB or Borne other crop the same year. Georgia is send ing ubroad for a million dollurs’ worth of tomatoes yearly, although this pro duct would bring $100 to $200 an acre, and is always in demand. There is equally good profit in growing spinach, beets, carrots, cauliflower, lettuce, and various other vegetables always in de- aiand. and the only place where these things will not grow in Georgia is where the seed are not put into the ground. Why spend the entire year in planting, cultivating und gathering cotton at $2f) to $50 per acre, when the same time, energy and outlay of labor and money will return anywhere from four to eght times this in come, if put into vegetable crops? Georgia can at least begin by growing enough of these crops to meet the home demand. This, at the start, would keep $11,000,000 a year in the pockets of the home people. s worth more to a community than any five men in it," said a speaker at a business men's luncheon here. He was speaking of the country weekly and its work. "Any business man gives some times to boost hiB town- anyone will do a little now and then for a public cause: but the local paper is doing it always, week in and week out, and the town takes it as a matter of course. The merchant who advertises thinks he iB doing the paper a great favor, when, as a matter of fact, he in merely mak ing his best investment.” The transparent skirl, which has so shocked conservatives for the past two years, has gone, say fashion forecas ters. The X-ray garments will be no more, for the modern full Bkirts will require a fairly heavy lining to hold their shape, and the streets will no more be filled with a free Bhow. The Fashion Art League of Chicago says the new skirts will be almost as full as in the old hoopBkirt days—a startling change from the hobble. Although there is a good deal of hog cholera in Georgia, Commissioner of Agriculture J. I). 'Price says excellent results are being secured with the serum treatment. The department has not been able to reach all localities as yet, but is working as rapidly as possi ble. It is stated that there iB no foot and mouth disease in the State, and horses and cattle generally are in ex cellent condition. Georgia retail merchants are greatly interested in the endeavor now being made to secure the passage of a bill by Congress making it necessary for mail order houses doing an interstate husi ness to be regulated or taxed by the Federal Government, for the benefit of each State. One local merchant says there are over one thousand muil order bouses in the United States, and they do 30 per cent, of the entire business of the country without paying taxes, ex cept in the States where their ware houses are located. "This places the local merchant at a disadvantage," he aaid, "for he not only pays for the privilege of doing business in a commu nity, but pays taxes upon hia propel ty and investment, and at the same time contributes to enterprises which build up his community." “Seeing Things P At Inn In Conntltution. It would be interesting to follow John I). Rockefeller, serenely chasing a golf ball around the linkB of his Tarrytown estate, and ask his real opinion of the interview given out by Frank P. Walsh on the foundation that beats Rockefel ler’s name. Walsh is chairman of the Federal Cemmission that is probing the foundations, and it still Beems we can not get enough probes to suit our jaded appetites. Mr. Walsh, after several days’ grilling of the attaches of the commission, comes to the conclusion that such huge foundations may become a gentle menace to free American government. There is nothing new in all of this stuff. It has been trotted forth time after time, at Congressional and other investigations. It formed the chief basis of the hearings when the Rocke feller foundation was seeking Federal incorporation, and it has time and ngain been applied to the Sage and to other foundations. This is not to for get our good friend, Dr. Washington Gladden, und hia scornful refusal of "tainted money." The Constitution holds no brief for any of these foundations or their founders, but it declines to “view with alarm" the possibility of their absorb ing the American government or un duly influencing its people. There are too many watchful eyes in this country, too many keen brains to permit any thing of the sort. If men of great weulth with to redistribute that wealth scientifically for the benefit of the peo ple from whom it was drawn, let us put only such obstacles in their pathway as will insure equity and fairness. It iB already of record that these founds lions have done much good in their respective fields, and are scheduled to do more. They will bear watching, of course, but bo will Congress, with its pork barrel, its pension scandal, its demagogy and its other abuses. It should be remembered, incidental ly, that some of Mr. WalBh’s critics have suspected him of cherishing poli tical ; ambitions. If that is true it would explain much. In spite of our partial recuperation from the era of baiting of wealth, it is still popular in some quarters to "swat" the helpless multi millionaire. Judge Adamson's New Suit Wanhinirton Cor. 8t. Louis Globe-Democrat. William Charles Adamson, Represen tative from Georgia for the past six teen years and chairman of the House Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, has a new suit of clothes. This announcement would not be made but for the reason that Judge Adamson seemed a bit hurt the other day when he strode into the midst of his colleagues attired in the new purchase and nobody noticed it. Adamson has been careleBS of his clothing, save that he has shown a particular fondness for bright red neckties and red vests, and his suit usually fits him about as gracefully as a shirt on a beanpole. He does not care bo long as he is comfortable, but so much comment had been made on his apparel, both verbal and published, that the Judge, as he is familiarly known, decided to tone up a bit. Accordingly he bought this new suit and wandered in where the crowd was thickest, in the House lobby, to show it off. He strutted up and down the lobby several times, and finally blurted out: "Well, 1 don’t see any use in buying a new suit if nobody is going to say anything about it.” Whereupon conversation ceased and Adamson was “given the once over” by about thirty pairs of eyes, and instead of compliments the remarks were: “Where did you get it?” "How did it happen?” et cetera. The suit is a dark black and white check, somber, and verging on a gray, and matches the Judge’s hair. To the query of his colleague, Tribble of Geor gia, AdamBon explained how he came to buy his new togs. “You Bee, they wanted to charge me $14 for this same suit before ChriBtmas, but I thought that was too much, so I waited until they had a marked-down sale and got it for $10.” In summer Adamson is one of the tirBt to don an all white costume, in cluding white canvas shoes and white socks, and the suit usually has the ap pearance of having been used alBO as pajamas at night. It is, therefore, an event when Adamson puts on a new suit, and he really appeared hurt when his colleagues failed to take notice. Hence, as the national legislators are fond of saying, "in order that the country may know," this information is imparted.

Thou Bhalt have no other food than at meal time. 2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any pies or put into pastry the likeness of anything that is in the heavens above or in the waters under the earth. Thou shalt not fall to eating it or trying to digest it. For the dyspepsia will be visited upon the children to the third and fourth generation of them that eat pie, and long life and vigor upon those that live prudently and keep the laws of health. 3. Remember thy bread to bake it well, for he will not be kept well that eateth his bread as dough. 4. Thou shalt not indulge sorrow or borrow anxiety in vain. 5. Six days thou shalt wash and keep thyself clean, and the seventh day thou shalt take a great bath, thou, and thou son, and thy maid servant, and the stranger that is within thy gates. For in Bix days man sweats and gathers filth and bacteria enough for disease; wherefore the Lord has blessed the bath tub and hallowed it. 6. Remember thy sitting-room and bed chamber to keep them ventilated, that thy days may be long in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. 7. Thou shalt not eat hot biscuits. 8. Thou shalt not eat thy meat fried. 9. Thou shalt not swallow thy food unchewed or highly spiced, or just be fore hard work or just after it. 10.

If the four hundred New York min isters who have invited Billy Sunday to go to New York and conduct one of his religious campaigns would get down to real religious work themselves and preach the same simple gospel that the evangelist preaches they might have a revival without calling in help from the outside. Somehow, the spectacle of four hundred preachers appealing to an evangelist to come and save their city from the devil does't speak very well for the four hundred preachers.—Alba ny Herald.
