will be a solid Georgia vote for Wilson

he knew as a young lawyer. H* la a
Southern-born and bred man who ha*

should rally to hia oaus* la this-race

sible support.
AJtho tha plana decided upon Tues

tain that a big Wilson rally wlU be

th. Mr. McAdoo and probably John

of their business that aeetn of more prac

by tbe owner of a large Eucalyptus grove
planted mar* than 2$ year* ago. He aara
that-be harvests annually timber of the
value of ff$0 from each acre, and that
the timber remaining becomes cf. greater
value each year* tbe natural growth of
what la left more than compensating for
what la cut. Groves of this kind win con
tinue productive forever, with no diminu
