THE NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN HERALD j Consolidated with Coweta Advertiser September, 1888.1 Established 1866. I Consolidated with Newnan News January, 1916. 1 NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1916. VoL 51—No. 22 ECONOMIZE ON VOUR 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.

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. Constipation.

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.
