parents, relatives or acquaintances owe anything for subscriptions to
The Georgian and American t an coMect the money themselves, bring it
in and be credited with votes.

newals. po even if they know that acquaintances have been taking The
Georgian and American they may profit by seeing them and canvassing
for votes.

the races promise to grow more exciting daily. Names and standing ot

obtained its cotton from visible and in
visible supply Says If July prices are
forced to extreme there Is enough "en
durable low grade cotton to liquidate
that position. He refers to present large
excess of Interior stocks, and says crop
has improved since rains fell. Think
people expect Bureau of 83.5. Believe
acreage will he increased about 5 per
cent."

Wholesome Advice by an Expert
Who Has Tried It From
Every Angle.
Judge Marshall: I want to ask you
a number of questions. If you will not
think I am too greedy for Informa
tion.
I live on a farm about two miles
from town and am trying to raise
chick 111s enough to make a living
from.
1 do very well with those I suc
ceeded in 'iiising. but 1 loose about
half of my chicks before they are two
weeks old.
As soon as the chicks ate hatched
I give them a good feed of mash,
composed of equal parts of corn meal
and wheat bran mixed with hot wa
ter. allowing it to cool a little before
feeding. 1 feed this once si day and
cracked corn three times a day; but
J ha\* much trouble with spar
rows eating up the feed.
.1 also have much trouble with the
red mites bothering my sitting hens,
which 1 seem unable to control.
Then, again. 1 have trouble every
summer by having great, big. fat hens
drop dead without any warning. They
will be apparently well one day and
the next they will be dead. They
are very fat and fine and 1 see no rea
son why they should die thus.
I always feed a little good con
dition powder of some kind three
times a week.
If it is not asking too much of you
I should appreciate an answer to
these troubles. 1 am yours very
truly. MRS. E. E. SPEER.
Tifton Ga.
Cut Out Wet Mash.
ANSWER -We have texts enough
for a number of good sermons but
will have to do like the boy said he
did in bunting for the cows: Gd to
the end of the lane and scatter.
First, in regard to the little chicks,
I would say cut out the wet math
entirely, or, at least, until they are
two months old and then if you want
to use some of your feed in that
way it will be all right, but not for
the newly hatched ones. Feed rolled
oats dry, and the cracked corn fine
enough so they can eat it well, pro
viding you can not get the ready
mixed chick feed at your grocers in
Tifton. But there is no question
that the rolled oats is good, and so
is the corn, but feed them absolutely
dry.
Another place where you have erred
seriously is in feeding as* soon as
hatched, if that is what you intended
to say.
There is nothing that will so <
quickly get the digestive organs out
of order, or, for that matter, prevent
them from ever getting in order, as
feeding newly hatched chicks at
once. Give them a chance to season
out a little, as one old poultryman
used to say. When they first hatch
they are a jelly, as it were, and it
takes a day or two for them to tough
en up, ready to digest what is given
them. So, the way to do Is to wait
forty-eight hours before any feed is
given. They will not starve, but be
all the better for the little fast. They
may have a good supply of sharp
sand to peck at. Then feed the
rolled oats or prepared dry chick
feed. This can be continued until
they can handle charter cracked corn
and wheat.
Green Feed Necessary.
All the while they must have good
green stuff of some kind and a little
dried beef scrap after they are three
weeks old, and I think you will have
no trouble if everything is kept clean
and free from mites. The sparrows
can be controlled by feeding under
wire netting runs.
When you set your hens, move
them out of the lien house into some
clean shed, nr, for that matter, out
of doors, using barrels for the nest.
But you should not have them in tin
houses. Take a pint of oil of tar, a
pint of gasoline, three quarts of ker
osene; mix thoroughly and spray ot
pour over the roosts and the sides of
the house where the roost poles rest.
If this is attended to an hour before
roosting time, it will usually about
finish the job. both on the poles and
the hens. If any are left on the
hens, dust them thoroughly with some
good lice powder. After they have
been really cleaned out. it will pay
to grease the poles with hot lard and
a brush.
As to your loosing your fat hens
by sudden deaths. I would say that
I think you have been using too much
condition powders. In my estimation
even a little is too much when hens
are in health and laying. You have
weakened their digestive organs by
overstimulation, coupled with too
much fat in hens that are, no doubt,
over two years old. When hens get
a little old and fat. heavy behind, it is
the best policy to send them to the
butchers.
Such hens have passed their use
ful time. They have slowed up on
laying and with no drain upon their
systems they fill up with fat inside,
where It presses on the heart and is
the cause of the sudden deaths you
speak of. It is no trouble to detect
such hens L. ‘he yard, and it is a
good plan to ns«- them while they
are In good health, rather than wait
for them to come to the sudden death
referred to,

NEW ORLEANS, May 28. Hayward
A ('lark: The weather map is very fa
vorable; shows cloudy in the Atlantic's;
fair elsewhere. General rains in North
Georgia and Carolina?. Some good
rains in Carolines, where they will lie
of great benefit. Indications are for
fair and warmer over the entire belt,
except possibly some showers on the
Atlantic, coast.
Memphis wir'es: "Generally fair and
warmer weather is indicated for all cot
ton States. Heavy rains fell yesterday
in North Carolina Little or none else
where. Very favorable conditions.”
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "Tuesday’s weather was good
enough, hut the day’* quota of crop re
ports lacked the favorable tone enthu
siastic short sellers of Monday expected.
The trade continued to buy contracts,
and the underlying strength generated
thereby and by covering by small •
shorts was made acute by the change
of position by one or more extensive
operators who had been working on the 1
short side of the account. The result J
was an advance which just about wiped
not Monday’s decline. Business is in
very small volume, fluctuations are nar
row and constitutional partisans adhere
to the old belief with the simplicity of
ingrained faith.
"Consumption is running on a heavier
«cale than is absorption of the raw ma
terial by spinners, consequently, re
serves are being reduced. Bulls believe
an average of about 15.000.000 bales a
year Is needed, and that the probability
Is against average crops of 15.000.000
yet a while For this reason friends of
‘he market can see no reason to fear
»h«- possibility of serious declines in the
value of the raw material. On the other
hand, low price people know that the
weather is good, that the demand is
limited and the world’s visible supply of
:U kinds of cotton is larger than it was
>»t this time last year. Consequently
they can not understand how anybody
can anticipate any other than a down
ward price movement."
