To have ! these eggs taken from the market j now, to tne enhancement of present prices, is bad enough, but to have | them come hack eight or nine months hence doubled in cost with a stale I musVtnesB that renders them scarcely unsable Is a double affliction. The M ass Meeting Here Toworrow The Farmers Union is not a political bo ly. It is essentially different from any organization of its kind that has ever been launched. However, like all organizations that tend toward the public good as they see it they unite in striving to cany their point. The organization has passed its opin- I ion on the bill before the (icncial Assembly of Georgth looking toward the I abolition ol the county court of Baldwin and establishing the city court. There arc two sides to every question There is no doubt but that all .courts arc expensive, but still we have that as an argument against the est ablishment of the new tribunal. Then again there are actually lots of folk ! who have an idea that the city court will be Milledgeville's court and not 1 Baldwin county’s court, They are of the opinion that the citizens only of J Miiledgeville will be eligible to serve on the jury and others even think that only purely municipal cases will be tried. It is to be expected that we should err. Most of us entertain opinions that are d'ecidedly averse to truth, if the new court is established it will be J essentially a court ol the people of Baidwin county and for the people of Baldwin county. Every man will have a band in operation just as they Will : paying for it. As a matter of fact we are against courts. II only t'ne mills of the gods Icjuld grind out justice and we could hive use for no other courts then we would indeed be pleased, But this sphere is a vale ot tears and we are ac tors in the great drama which sooner or later is paraded before the bar of justice and held up to the world. But the potent factor in tomorrow's meeting will show that the folk of Baldwin county have the interests of the public at heart as they see it. There is no doubt but that many will come out and give experession to their views. This is perfectly right and just. It makes us proud to think that we live in a community where people are standing together for common good as they recognize it to be. It shows that we are still living in a democratic age in a democratic section where the will ol the people will some day triumph over corporate power. As tor ourselves we disclaim any knowledge of the bill so much discuss ed. We didn’t even know it was going to be introduced, didn’t know when it was introduced, didn’t know the reason for it, but we are here to live and learn, but in doing this we want to say consider both sides of the question even in the matter of laws and courts. And back ol it all we see and know that the farmer is coming into his own and with pardonable pride we look back over the race we've run and say, thank goodness, we were, are and will be farmers just as long as they keep on clamoring for their own rights, no matter if they do get the wrong impression sometimes. me Miiiedoeviiie BanKino company Has received a letter of congratulation from “The Financier’’ of New York, the largest banking newspaper in the world.

Take the knife in \ .tho right hand, the back of the blade toward your body. Insert tne blade in the mouth, keeping the point to the right side of the bird's neck and na near the outer skin as possible until f it is well past the neck bone. Then press the edge toward the bone and slowly draw the knife from the mouth, the hand moving from your body, so that the knife appears to pass across the neck. Repeat me ! process in the left side of the neck. 1 This saould came the bird to bleed freely hut by holding the beak up the blood will remain in the neck, gtv- i Ing you plenty of time to pierce the ; b ain. The latter Is located Just . above the eye and can be easily reached through the neper part of the | mouth by using a stilt steel blade, in serted in the mouth with blade edge up and pointing slightly over the eye. With young birds little trouble Is experienced in piercing the brain, blit with older birds a very stiff blade is required, as the bones are much harder. When the point of the blade enters the brain, give the knife a quick twist to right or left to widen 'he aperture. It the brain has been reached, the bird will attempt to squawk or will give a nervous jerk as the blade touches the spot, and this touching the brain or nerves not only loosens the feathers of the bird for dry plucking, but will greatly Im prove the appearance of scalded stock." \ weight, which may consist of nn old tomato can half tilled with stones and cement, is Immediately attached by means of a w ire hook to the lower inaudible of the bird. "Then by grasping tlie wings close to the back, the bird will not be able to flutter, and can be easily and rapidly pluck ed. This, of course, should always be dene while the bird is bleeding. • * * The can catches the biood, and by hanging the bird over a barrel the feathers may easily be saved." Since there is considerable difH- culty in scalding birds properly aud it is often improperly done, dea'ers usually pav a little more for dry- plucked birds. "The breast should be plucked fir»r. starting near the crop. Aft vz the breast the thighs, then the bac-v rear the,base of the tail, and las ’he wings. As soon as the featheis have j been removed the wings should be ' twisted over the bnck and ihe bird taken from the hooks and the feet washed after which the thighs and legs should be pressed to th" body j either by placing a bre c on the ' bird's breast or by tying the body, the object of this being to give the bird a plump or blocky appearance."
