THE FARM BUREAU.
Thn campaign for fnrm bureau mem
.benihip in Coweta county will be car
ried on Nov. 1 to 0. Evory farmer nnd
bnalness man in tho county is urged
to give tills movomont liis support. Tho
organization is not lighting any person
or any organisation, but is being pushed
owing to tlie pntent.fnct tlint there nrc
many pressing questions of common in
terest to nil fnrmorn that can bo best
bandied by a nation-wide organisation of
farmers.
Tlic fnrm bureau is being successfully
•organised now In a number of Georgia
.counties, nnd if tho good work goes on
•should ho able to accomplish a groat
deni for tho farmers of Georgia, ns it
has already done for tho farmers of other
Slates where it has linen organized. About
a million farmers are already identified
with it, and are doing buslhoss through
it,
It is time for thn farmers of Coweta
county to eonto In and carry their pare
county to come in and carry their part
boncllt. B. M. Drake, County Agent,
NOW IS THE TIME TO SOW OATS.
In spllo of tho fnet that sevornl years
ngo wo lost several crops of oats in sue-
cession by cold wnnthcr, it remains truo
tlint. tills is a fairly safe crop. Previous
to that time properly sown oats had not
been winter-killed in ton yonra. Those
who aowod oats lust winter got ft good
crop, and nro encouraged to plant again.
Tt 1b noodless to m\y that u good acreage
■of oats would bo one of tho most safe
■nnd anno stops in tho direction of diver-
allocation, nnd svoilhl have a beneficial
•effect upon tlio pflco of cotton, ns boing
tho best guarantee wo o.nn now give of
a decreased aeroago In.cotton.
The .point of tho prosont nrtlclo is to
emphasize tho importance of oarly sow
ing. It hnB boon repeatedly demonstra
ted by careful experiment tlint Octobor
sown oats nro enfor from winter-killing
then tlioso sown Inter, and tlint tlio crop
is on the average much Inrgor.
If you want to find oxousos for put-
'ting off tlio sowing of oats or for.fniluro
to sow thorn, you can no doubt do so.
But exeusoB nro absolutely iisoIobb, An
excuse don’t nrnko any more food 111 the
barn or any more money lu your pocket.
Do not, tlidn, entertain tlio idea of let
ting anything provont -your sowing a
good aeroago of oats this fall. Make
up your mind tlint It is one of the things
tlint must bo douo, and do It.
1 bollovo that wo should sow not less
than live ncroH of oats to tho plow, ns
•this is one of tho cropB that wo can
consume at homo to a groat extent, and
whatever surplus there is above our own
needs can bo sold. I sponk from expert-
■enco when 1 recommend oats ns a crop
tlint will bring na moiioy,
flat good seed and treat thorn with
formalin to provont smut, plant them
in good ground nnd in a furrow, to insure
■ngniiiBt winter-killing. Cotton land that
lias been well worked during the summer
Is well adapted to tlio production of oats,
junl the practice of sowing in tlio cot
ton mhldlos, if done early oriough, ia
« good ono. 1 boliovo it will pny to fov-
tillzo oats at planting tlmo, nnd cortnin-
lly on most of our land a good dressing
■of nltrntirof soda will pay.
{But by all moans plant early and give
thorn a eluinee. B. M. Drake,

DESTROY WEEVILS WITH CAR-
■ BON BI-SULPHIDE.
I have received many complaints of
-tlaiiuigo to com, both old and now, by
weevils, which scorn to bo more than
Usually uumorous this fall. Undor tho
present distressing circumstances waste
is oven more Inoxousablo than at ordinary
times, and we should uho .ovory moans
to provont tho datnngo that is threatened.
Carbon bt-sulphldo Is n poisonous gas
, that lms boon successfully used to de
stroy woovila in grain. It can bo gotten
from local druggists, and has no inju-
ilous effect on tlio grain treated, which
can bo used for food or Bood without fenr
•of any bud effects. Ono caution, how-
ever, should bo given: This gas la very
explosive when brought in contact with
tiro, and evory precaution slioiild bo taken
io prevent the bringing of any kind of
-fire about the room whore It is used.
' Directions for Treatment.—Put tho
Krain to be treated in as close a room or
bln or box ns possiblp. Place the carbon
M-sulphido in shallow vessels on top of
tho grain and shut, up tight, for 24 to 4S
hours, using one pound of carbon bl-sul-
phido to 40 bushels of grain, or from 6 to
10 lbs to every 1,000 cubic space in tho
■crib. It. is advised not to uso carbon hi-
jiulphido la cold weather.

THE PROBABLE EFFECT OF WO
MAN SUFRAGE.
Progressive Farmer.
Seeing, thon, that wo ought to change
up to tho rneo problem the faults of the
race problem, lot us see whnt will bo
the probable effects of woman suffrage
itself. Of course, wo are going to hnvo
Homo trouble from selfishly Ambitious wo
men in polities, just us we have always
hail from Hellishly ambitious men. But
from tlio rank ami file of women voters,
if we limy use tlio term, wlmt may wo
expectf
'1, Women ns tlio mothers of tlio rneo
are naturally interested in childhood and
all tlmt affects It. Is it not likely, there
fore, that women will bo especially in
forested in bettor schools, better health
conditions, tlio prevention of injurious
child labor, ami all, other measures to
give childhood a hotter chnneof
2. Tho majority of women have higher
moral standards than most men. Even
a wolfish interest would mnko women in
torostod in suppressing drunkonness and
immorality, because tlio wives of 'America
have suffered most from dissipated hus
bands and sons. Is it not natural to
expect, therefore, that prohibition and
other laws looking to the elevation of
our moral standards will bo bettor sup
ported as a result of woman’s votof
3. Womon hate war and love poaco,
May they not bo oxpocted to throw their
influonco In favor of somo Supremo Court
of Nations as a aubBtltilto for wart
4. Womon lovo beauty. Honco may wo
not oxpoct thorn , to uso their power to
encourage beautification of public build
ings and grounds, school houses, parks,
stroots nnd roadways to an oxtent un
known heretofore!
To sum it up, wlmt does woman suf
frage inoniif It simply moaiiB more
powor for women. If a woman is of
tlio wrong sort, it menus more power for
lior wrong tendencies. If sho is of the
right sort, it moans more powor for her
right tondonolos. Ami sineo everybody
believes that, there nro more women with
right tendencies than with wnong, it is
onsy to hope tlint the not results will bo
good. Anyhow, since woman suffrage is
hero, oven former nntilsuffragists ought
to try to boliovo this.
When n bnd innti in n Virginia neigh
borhood died, nn old negro woidfiin said,
“Well, I hopes he’s gone where I ’speets
ho ilia't 1 ” We commend tlio philoso
phy of tho old nogro woman to tlioso who
still fenr tho effects of womnn suffrngo.
Let thorn hopo for the best, ovon if they
really expect tlio worst—nnd wait nnd boo
thn thing tried out.
IN MEMORY OF MRS. W. T. SIBLEY.
On tho 18th of August, 1920, our
lionrts wore saddened by the sudden death
of our sister, Mrs. W. T. Sibloy. For
twonty-ono yonra she bad boon a loyal
and beloved mombor of Botliol Bnptist
church, nnd was ovor roady to lend a
helping hand to tho causo of Christ. Sho
was nlwnyB faithful to hor duties, sin
cere in hor friendships, and charitable
to tho faults of others. None knew hor
but to lovo hor. Sho possessed a cheer
ful disposition, and in its proudest sense
sho was a Christian, illustrating in hor
daily walk those pure principles of
Christ which ovor guidod hor footsteps.
Mrs. Sibloy was born Oct. 27, 1867.'
Sho leaves a husband, and a host of rela
tives tuid frionds to mourn hor death. In
our shurch, in her homo, and in tho com
munity in which sho lived, sho will be
sadly missotl. To tho boroaved ones wo
oxtond our heartfelt sympntiiy.
Wo would not call hor bnck, O, Dontli,
For her Ufo’s work was noble and
good;
But tho sweetest remembrance to us is
loft
Of a soul that hath dono what sho
could.
After funeral sorvlcos, conducted by
Rev. R. M. Stevens, her body was laid
to rest in the Lutherville cemetery,

OIL MILLS CLOSE DOWN.
Albany, On., Oct. 10.—Cotton seed oil
mills in Albany, in common with others
throughout the Southeast, nro facing the
necessity of lmving to shut down or run
only n portion of their time, due to in
ability to get cotton seed at a price which
will enable them to operate without ac
tual loss. The condition hero, however,
is in no way different from that through
out the cotton bolt, managers of the two
large crushing concerns here stated this
morning.
Tho Albany Oil Mill was closed all of
last week, and lias about completed the
crushing of such seed it had on hand this
week, probably necessitating closing down
again next week.
The Planters Oil Co., which ordiimrily
runs 24 hours a day during the netivo
season, is running only ju daytime now,
and not regularly then. This company
usually crushes from 15,000 to 17,000
tons of seed a year. Thus far this sea
son it has crushed only about one-fifth
of its normal output to'this date.
Should Have Cured Her.
At a moving picture theater a wom
an was reading aloud the announce
ments that accompanied tho pictures,
dblivloi" to the annoyance of thoae
In her vicinity. Suddenly her voice
slowly died away, and the crowd
about her was convulsed with laugh
ter as sho read this aloud, from the
screen: "We hate to put ashes in any
body’s ice cream, but deliver us from
the woman who reads the moving pic
ture titles aloud."
OLD SHOES.
How much a man is like old shoes! /
For instance, both a, soul may lose;
Botli hnvo beon tanned; both nro made
tight
By cobblers; both get left and right;
Both need a mate to be complete,
And both are made to go on" feet.
They both need heoling; oft are sold,
And both in time ail turn to. mold;
With shoes tho laBt is first; with men _
Tho first shall be Inst; nnd wlmn
The bIiocs wear out they’re mended new;
When men wear out they are nien-dead,
too.
They both aro trod upon, and both
Will tread on others, nothing loath;
Both have their ties, arid both incline,
When polished, in the world to sliino;
And both peg out. Now would you choose
To lie a man, or bo his Bhoes!
