FEED
When you buy a ton of hulls you pay for 500 lbs. of lint (which positively has no food value)
and is money wasted. Basing hulls at $16 per ton this feed is costing you $21.33 per ton. When
you add to this one-fifth meal at $35 per ton, your feed is costing $24.06 per ton.
We are selling delinted hulls (100 per cent, availably at $14 per ton, and meal at $30 per ton.
On above basis your feed will cost you $17.20 per ton. In addition to this we will allow you 80c
a ton for bags returned in good order. This will make a saving of $7.66 per ton from what it is
now costing you. Won’t this saving interest you enough to give it a trial?
If you have corn in shuck, oats in sheath, hay or stover, bring it in and have it ground. Grind
ing feedstuff adds 20 to 25 per cent, to its value. Give us a trial and convince yourself that our
claims are justified.
THE SOUTH’S AVAILABLE POTASH
You are to-day facing the problem of not only poor-grade but high-priced fertilizers. There is
practically no Potash for sale except at prohibitive prices.
We have for sale Buco Feed Meal which contains 1 1-2 per cent. Potash. If you will use 1,000
lbs. of 16 per cent. Acid and 1,000 lbs. of Buco Meal you will have a fertilizer that will run 8.2.3-4
which will cost you about $22 per ton. At this price you can afford to use your regular amount
of fertilizer and get good results. Would be pleased to have you take this up with us, as we feel it
will be money saved you. Yours truly,

Shedden Farms Growing Rapidly.
The Shorthorn herd of cattle owned
by Shedden Farms at Raymond is re
ported by Mr. Fowler to be in excel
lent condition. They have some fine
cows; also a grand lot of heifers, and a
dozen or more bulls ready for service.
There is not a good farmer in the
South who cannot afford to own a pure
bred Shorthorn bull when such an ani
mal can be had at the reasonable prices
quoted by Shedden Farms, They offej
bulls as low sb $125 each, and while
these are not the vCry best ones they
have, they are such animals as will be
of much value to stockmen of the
South. In the lot of bulls is one pure
white nearly 3 years old, and a beauti
ful animal. Such bulls sell in the
North many times at $200 to $300 each,
with high freight charges to pay, when
this animal can be purchased right here
in Coweta county for $176.
This only serves as an example of
what can be done by patronizing home
industry, where the cattle can be Been,
and each buyer can select just such
animals as are wanted.
Some roanB are to be seen, and they
can be purchased at about the same
figures; also several reds of the same
quality and at equally low prices.
This Shorthorn breeding farm was
established in order to bring the ani
mals right to the door of our people,
and afford an opportnnity for those
who so desire to visit the farm and do
their own selecting.
While it is thedesire of Mr. Shedden
that every farmer visit the farm and
see for himself that Shorthorns are the
cattle for the South, and while it will
be a pleasure to Mr. Fowler to show
visitors over the farms, those who are
not so for unate as to have an oppor
tunity to look thertt oVef cad order with
confidence, as the animals will be sold
as cheap on mail orders in every case,
.and such orders will receive prompt! at
tention. Every animal offered'for sale
has been approved by a represeritative
of the American Shorthorn Breeders’
Association, and since these Shorthorns
are kept as much for thd benefit of our
Southern farmers as for the pleasure
or profit tp be derived from them,
every customer will be given a square
deal and full value for his money. The
cattle are being kept under natural
conditions, and not pampered in the
least. For this reseon they are accli
mated. and in condition to go on mak
ing money for the farmers.
We are not boosting Shedden Farms
Shorthorns because they are located in
Coweta county, nor because they were
put in operation by R. F. Shedden. We
are not boosting because Mr. Chastain,
Southern representative of the Ameri
can Shorthorn Breeders' Association,
has inspected the animals and has set
his stamp of approval upon every ani
mal on the place, nor yet because C.
W. Fowler is manager of the farms,
but because we believe Shorthorns are
excellent cattle for the farmers of the
cotton belt, and because we believe
they can get as good value for the
money from Shedden Farms, Raymond,
Ga., as from any place in the United
States.
Spanked Them.
New York World.
Small politics and smaller politicians
received a castigation long to be re
membered when in the United States
Senate Thursday John Sharp Williams,
of Mississippi, addressed himself to
them for a few minutes. Evidence of
Mr. Williams’ ability has not been
wanting in the past, but on this occa
sion he asserted commanding leadership
in a body that has not been notable for
a high average of statesmanship.
In his masterlAarraignment of these
who for political' reasons or personal
ends are nagging the President Into
war with Great Britain, Germany or
Mexico Mr. Williams waB as unsparing
of Democrats as of Republicans, With
courage equal to his candor he rebuked
demagogues on both sjdes of the cham
ber by asserting that ire would not shed
a drop of blood in a quarrel over busi
ness or property, even cotton, and as
to the graver disputes over human life
wahtonly sacrificed he insisted that the
matter must rest in the President, who
is entirely competent to deal with them.
We believe that Mr. Williams speaks
not only for the better part of the
South, bdt tor the better part of the
country. Me is as bold as trflth and
circumspect as justice. Formerly it was
not unusual for a Senator of the United
States to rise above partisanship and
address himself to the Welfare of the
whole people. In his revival of stand
ards long forgotten by th ose Who play
E olitics and ignore duty Mr. Williams
onors his country, bis State and 1 him
self.

About Paying Honest Debts.
We believe that the fellow who re
fuses to pay his honest debtB is com
mitting as great a crime as the fellow
who robs a bank— in fact, we have
more respect for the bank robber. Of
course, there are hundreds of thous
ands of honest people who can’t pay
what they owe. We refer to the
dead beat — the fellow who makes
it a profession to buy stuff on credit
and use every method possible to keep
from paying what he owes. The credit
system is the greatest evil of its kind
in existence, and the sooner the people
learn to pay cash the better off our
country will be. Since the great war
began, many people have had to de
pend almost entirely on the credit sys
tem to pull through, and many firmB
were forced to quit the credit business
because they could not obtain credit
themselves. And there are many peo
ple who took advantage of this condi
tion, and because the merchants could
not credit them when they needed it
most, have refused to pay what they
owed before the war. They forget that
the merchants could not buy goods on
credit, and the wholesalers were de
manding cash of the merchants. If
you owe anything and can pay it, go do
so; don’t grumble and make excuses to
keep from paying it. If you are finan.
cially embarrassed go to your creditor
and have the manhood to tell him you
will pay him just as soon as you can,
snd you can rest aBBured any sensible
man will do the right thing about the
matter.
Jack,” said the young wife after
she bad just danced with her husband,
"you’ve certainly improved wonder
fully in your dancing. Don’t you re
member how frightfully you used to
tear my dress?”
"Yes,’’ replied Jack. “I wasn’t buy
ing them then.”
About Water.
Most of us realize the importance of
pure water when we can’t get any.
But ordinarily we never give it a
thought.
Do you know, for instance, that sev
enty-five per cent, of the carcass you
carry around when you put on your
clothes in the morning in water? That,
assuming the scaleB register you at 150
pounds, 113-of those pounds will go up
in steam if you should happen to get to
a certain very hot place7
Well, that’s a fact.. A man is al
most as well watered as some railroads.
And here’s another fact: Just to keep
the mixture in you at the right degree
of fluidity, just to make up for the
body’s evaporation and leakage through
discharges, you need every day to take
into you, through food and drink, an
ounce of water for every pound and
seven-tenths that you weigh.
Say you weigh 150 pounds. This
means that you need a daily water
doB.ge of more than half a gallon sim
ply to keep you from becoming dusty
and crusty.
But there’B one fine thing about
water as a beverage; you don’t need to
be afraid of an overdose. It cleanses
the innards as a rainfull flushes a
sewer—so don’t be afraid to go to it
heartily and often.
