HUBBS Fort Valley, Ga. 0 MORE CULTIVATION— OR MORE FERTILIZATION The harrowing season for peach orchards and the fertilization of the orchards are both close at hand. More growth means more hud-, which produces more peaches and larger returns. There are only two ways of getting new growth or in¬ creased yield, and that is by exten¬ sive cultivation or extensive fertil¬ ization. Fertilizer is higher than it has ever been in the history of the peach business of Fort Valley and there¬ fore the most expensive method of increasing the yield. While, on the other hand, a Fordson Tractor, with¬ out any question, is rar cheaper in the extensive cultivation of an or¬ chard than any other power or ma¬ chinery ever offered a grower. It is your desire to secure the best results at the least possible cost. Therefore, if you will pend one-third as much for Fordson Tractors as you will have to spend for fertilizer to get a normal growth, the results will be the same. adv. «• 1 HONEY BACK* 11 without yu<*! tioo if Hunt’s Sa/v 4 IS/ 11 fails in 1 he treatment of Eczmia Tettrr.Ringworm,Itch..-ic D< n J f i I b^comjtdisco;.raged because otl o 'J treatments failed Hunt'»S«l»< WR£ has relieved hundreds of cases.

(By The Stars and Stripes Service). WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special). —The French High Commission in Washington, in the name of the French Republic, will present a mem orial diploma to the nearest kin of Americans who died in the service of their country during the World War. The presentation will be made on Washington’s birthday, Feb. 22. It is planned tat the American Legion, in co-operation with Army recruit¬ ing officers will distribute the diplo¬ mas. The diploma, drawn by Franklin Booth, an American artist, to repre¬ sent one of the-bas-reliefs of the Arc de Triomphe. in Paris, will bear the name of the deceased soldier, with a recognition from the French people signed by President Poincare. The Inscription, Near the top of the engraving ap¬ pear two lines from Victor Hugo, which, translated, read: ‘‘Those who died piously for their country, Have the right that at their graves, the people come to pray.” The words belovv the open space, which will bear the soldiers name, in English, are: “To the memory of--, of the United States of America, who died for liberty during the Great War, the homage of France,’'' The group, which is the center of he engraving, is placed on a cen¬ otaph, and the whole is framed by a border of oak and laurel leaves, al¬ ways discerned to the victors. A LESSON FROM LINCOLN. (Springfield Journal) One of the fundamental maxims of Lincoln's life was the neccessity of obedience to the law. He preach¬ ed this on all occasions, and practiced it as well. He would not issue his emancipation proclamation until sat sfied that the president’s war pow¬ ers, under the Constitution, weie broad enough to cover such an action. Not even in that matter would he override the law. In one of the speeches* made at Springfield while he was still a young man, he set forth this doctrine, in part, as follows: “Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well-wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the revolution never to violate in the r You no doubt have heard this expression many times. It was uttered the first time by a tarmer standing on the side of the road in front of his house, w hen he saw his first automobile. The machine came so fast and was gone so soon that he couldn’t help but yell out as he did. It is equally true of BISSELL TRACTOR CONTROL HARROWS ..

As the patriots of seven-ty six did to the support of the Declara tion of Independence, so to the sup¬ port of the Constitution and law ; let every American pledge his life, his property, and his sacred honor—let every man remember that to violate the law is to tram pi on the blood of hia father, and to tear the charter of his own and his children's liberty. Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every Amer ma n mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap; let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in col¬ leges; let it be written in primers, spelling hooks, and in almanacs; let it be preached from the pulpit, pro¬ claimed in legislative halls, and en forced in courts of justice. In short, let it become the political religion of the nation. 0 USES OF NEWSPAPERS. 4 Some people who do not fully ap¬ preciate their home town paper from the standpoint of its literary or news value might do well to consider the following uses for it suggested by Mrs. S. Gilbert in the Des Moines Register, as quoted in The Publish¬ ers’ Auxiliary: We could not keep house without newspapers. Clean fish, chickens and meat on a newspaper. Empty the carpet sweeper on one. Use one on the tray when cleaning the table to catch the crumbs. On sweeping days dampen papers, tear into bits and sprinkle over the floor to catch the dust and brighten the floor covering. Lay several thicknesses of papers under the carpets and large rugs, Printers’ ink is a moth preventive and the papers also save much wear on the carpet as well as shutting out the cold. When ironing use a handful of VISITORS FROM NEAR-BY TOWNS arc finding it profitable buying high-class groceries at Piggly-Wiggly. The saving on a few dollars’ worth pays their gasoline bill.....

DALLAS, Tex.—Reports reading Dallas this week ndicate tiu-t the damage done -> peaches and toma¬ toes in East fa* j by the fre o a few days ago was fully as great as was at first report**!. It seems to be the consensus of opinion of fruit growers that pend es were hurt from 40 to 50 per jer.i Some mints re¬ port the fruit crop practically killed while others say some peaches are expected if further damage does not accrue. The weather continued , cold this week, holding the sap back in the trees, and it wilknot be until warmer weather comes and the real dormant buds begin to burst until the real damage can be ascertained. There seems to be no doubt about ad¬ vanced buds being killed.
