THE NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN HERALD ' Consolidated with Coweta Advertiser September, Established 1800. Consolidated with Newnan News January, 1915, ' . NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1915. Vol. 50—No. 26 TO OUR PATRONS: On account of the European War we find that the advance in potash is so great it is impossible for us to maintain the high quality of our Georgia Belle brands of fertilizers without charging a price which we consider excessive. In addition to this, we find many of our customers have deci ded to use meal and acid and greatly reduce the cost of their fertilizer for this season. For these reasons we have concluded it was advisable for us not to undertake to put out any substitute for our well-established brands, and we are therefore not going to manufacture fertilizer this season. We wish to thank every one of our customers who have given us their business in the past. Being farmers ourselves, we are in a position to sympathize with our farmer friends, who no doubt feel that their year’s work was a loss on account of the low price of cotton. We hope it will teach each one of us a lesson, that we should make our living at home and use cotton as a surplus crop. We hope for an early cessation of war in Europe, and then in the early fall potash will be avail able at a reasonable price and we will be in a position to continue to manufacture our well-known brands of fertilizers.

Last year Coweta county secured a farm demonstration agent who did some splendid work for the farmers gen erally. 1 refer to Mr. II. G. Wiley, who iB now engaged in the same work in Stephens county. The people of Coweta were pleased with the demon stration work last year and have decid ed to carry it on this year by placing me here as their agent. I want to say through The Herald that 1 am here for business. I am here to serve the far mers, and ready and williug to do so at any and all times. I want, to help make the people of the county self-sustaining. Coweta’s land is good, its climate is good, its people are good, arid there is no reason why it should he backward along agricultural lines. On the contra ry, there are reasons why it should lead all other counties. Let everybody work for the betterment of rural conditions, and see if we can’t make Coweta the banner county of the State. Most of us already know that farm demonstra tion work is purely co operative, so that is one of the reasons why we make an appeal for help and co-operation. We must co-operate if we ever hope to make a success of this or any other line of work. The demonstration work will he of benefit only to those who want it, and who will not only carry it on on their own farms, hut who will help to spread the gospel of better farming and rural improvement. Let’s talk it over with our neighbors wherever we meet them, determined to study our fuim and its needs, and see if we can’t make some improvement each year that will mean something to us in the future. Why not he real farmers instead of be ing soil robbers? Farming vitally con cerns us all —men and women, boy» and girls. Farmers feed the world, and when they make a failure we all suffer; so let us all manifest greater interest, in real farming this year. Let's see it we can’t grow our home supplies for both man and beast, and then grow all the cotton we can. Hut first be sure that we grow everything we want for food. The demonstration work belongs to us all. It belongs to the good women and girls as well as to the men and boys. Much good can be done by the ladies if the men will only give them a chance. Husbands and parents, won’t you give your good wives and girls a chance to help you pay, or keep down, the grocery bill? If so, let them have a good-sized home garden, and they will show you what they can do. Let your girl join the Girls’ Canning Club, and see what she can make on just one- tenth of an acre of ground. Help her to grow these tomatoes andean them for winter use. Let her help you feed the family in this wuy; and then, too, she will have a nice dish for her “best fellow” when he comes. This may seern a small part of the demon stration work, but it is not. It is a very important part of it. Just think how many good vegetables can be grown on a small plot of ground!—how much a good garden is worth to a home! Think of the good vegetables that can be canned and pickled. Think how much fruit can be saved in the same way. This is what the canning club work stands for. Now, don’t think that your girl is not interested in this work, for she is. I already have the names of about forty girls who wish to join the dub, and who want to make the beHt out of it. So, you see, it is up to the fathers and mothers to give them a small plot of ground to help them to help you feed the entire family, and at the same time give the girl a chance to be a winner of a prize ora free scholar ship at the State College of Agriculture. Her expenses will be paid from the time she leaves home until she gets back She will see something, and learn something, that will beof benefit to her in after life Give her a cnance this year and see what she will do for you and for herself. I urn going to ask thr fathers to help me in one other way, viz: Let your boy join the Corn Club. Let him have just one acre of ground and help him to make the biggest yield of corn you ever heard of. Give him a chance to be a real farmer. Give him a chance to place before other boys, other fathers, and the community generally, an ex ample of crop production under modern scientific methods. Give him a chance to meet with the future leaders of Georgia at the State College of Agri culture next January. 1 not only want to ask the fathers for help with the hoys’ and girls’ work, but I also ask the teachers over the county to help in this way. They can see the boys and girls more than I, so I ask them to please lend me their hearty co-operation in this work. Just one other thing I want to men tion. One very important thing that the demonstration work seeks to do is to get the farmers to practice a system of crop rotation. This is the only way we can hope to maintain the fertility of our soils, and at the same time increase the crop yields. I want forty or fifty farmers to start this system in a small way this year, just to see what good a change of crops on a given piece of land will do. Let me help you on three acres, if no more, and let’s see what we can do for that piece of ground in three years without additional fertilization. Just let me know that you have the three acres and I will come and see you and help you arrange it. Now, let about fifty farmers do this and wo will show what can be done. I would like to see every farmer in the county on his farm right away, hut that is impossible. I can’t get around as fast as I would like to with a horse and buggy. But remember that I am here for service. Call when you want me and I will do my best to reach you. Yours for service, J. H. Blackwell, Farm Demonstration Agent. To the Housewife. Madam, if your husband is like most men he expects you to look after the health of yourself and children. Coughs and colds are the moBt common of the minor ailments most likely to lead to serious diseases. A child is much more likely to contract diphtheria or scarlet fever when it has a cold. If you will inquire into the merits of the va rious remedies that are recommended for coughs and colds, you will find th it Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy standB high in the estimation of the people who use it. It is prompt and effectual, pleasant and safe to take, which are qualities especially to he desired when a medicine is intended for children.

It comes before the weather’s hot, and hits around and plies its legs, and lays at least ten million eggs, and every egg will bring a fly to drive us crazy by and by. Oh, every fl« that 'scapes our swat ters will have five million sons and daughters, and countless first and sec ond cousins, and aunts and uncles, scores of dozens, and fifty-seven billion nieces; so knock the blamed thing all to pieces. And every niece and every aunt—unless we swat them so they can’t—will lay enough dodgasted eggs to fill up ten live-gallon kegs, and all theso eggs, ere summer (ties, will bring forth twenty trillion dies. And thus it June. So men and brothers, let us rise, goes, an endless chain, bo all our swat ting is in vain unless we do that swat ting soon, in May-time and in early gird up our loina and swat the flies! And, sisters, leave your cozy bowers where you have wasted golden hours, and, with ardor in your souls, roll up your sleeves and swat the Mies. IT IS SERIOUS.

Baker, 14 Carmichael St., Newnan, Ga., says: "Riding over rough roads brought a severe strain on my kidneys and off and on for four years I suffered from a dull, weary ache across my back. Thu kidney secretions became highly colored and I realized that my kidneys needed treatment. A short time ago I heard about Doan’s Kidney Bills and procured a box from the Lee Drug Co. They quickly re lieved me and acted beneficially in every v/ay. I shall always be grate ful for what this remedy has done for me.” Price 6(Jc. at all dealers.
