COTTON WAREHOUSE
FOR BAINBRIDGE
Special to The Georgian.
Balnbrldge, Ga., Aug. 29.—Farmers In
this county are actively engaged in
gathering the cotton crop. Several
bales have been marketed here and
have brought from 9 1-2 to 10 l-2c per
pound. The crop while short will be
larger than estimated a month ago.
The Balnbrldge board of trade has
taken up the matter of a cotton market
for Balnbrldge and the highest market
S rlce will be paid at all times. Baln-
rlde In years past was the largest
cotton market In this section of the
state, but In recent years the receipts
have been small, owing to the fact
that the prices paid here were lower
than In surrounding towns.
The Balnbrldge Warehouse Company,
composed of several of the most prom
inent business men of the town, has
Just completed a commodious ware
house building of flre-proof brick. Sev
eral buyers are already in the Held and
the receipts this year promise'to be
much larger than heretofore.

FOR COUNTY CHAIRMAN.
Special to The Georgian.
Columbus, Ga., Aug. 29.—J. B. Key,
who Is a member of the police commis
sion, and a prominent young merchant,
has announced himself a candidate for
chairman of the county executive com
mittee, and will heartily support the
Australian, ballot system If elected. The
consensus of opinion here seems to
bo that a business map should have
the place this time, as It has been
held for years by lawyers, and the peo
ple apparently desire a change.

Geqrgla has sent to the markets of

age of cars, and loss was sustained by
some growers.

How Much “Dead Wood”
Have You in Your
Advertising?
The"dead wood"—unprofitable mediums—in lists used by ad
vertisers who have transferred their accounts to LordSc Thomas
in the past year, has proved to be as high as 33 percent in the
light of the Lord & Thomas Record of Results.
T HIS 33 per cent of “dead wood"
was counter-acting or oRsetting
profitable results from another
33 per cent of the list, leaving the cam
paign limping along on the remaining
34 per cent of publications.
£ven so, in many cases, the advertising
had been considered successful.
But WE do not consider an advertising
campaign successful until it has
reached the greatest possible measure
of success.
We do not consider a list of advertis
ing mediums safe to use for our clients
until each publication has been
“MEASURED” by the actual results
tabulated in the Lord & Thomas
Record of Results.
This Record of Results is a compilation
of weekly confidential reports on returns
from all good newspapers and other
media sent us by those of our clients
who have a direct check on their
advertising.

So you see we have practically elimi
nated the element of chance in adver

experiment (with consequent waste) la
questionable copy and mediums.
We ask an opportunity to explain to
you, personally, and in detail, what the

GOOD NIGHT'S 8LEEP.
Medicine so Btntficisl to Brain
and Nerves. 1
TRY A WANT AD
IN TEj GEORGIAN
Lying awake nights makes It hard to
keep awake and do things In day time.
To take "tonics and stimulants" under
such circumstances Is like setting the
house on fire to see If you can put It
out.
The right kind of food promotes
refreshing sleep at night and a wide
awake individual during the day.
A lady changed from her old way of
eating, to Grape-Nuts, and says:
For about three years I hod been a
great sufferer from Indigestion. After
trying several kinds of medicine, the
doctor would ask me to drop off pota
toes, then meat, and so on, but In a few
days that craving, gnawing feeling
would atart up. and 1 would vomit
everything I ate and drank.
"When I started on Grape-Nuts,
vomiting atopped, and the bloating
feeling which waa so distressing dis
appeared entirely,
"My mother was very much bothered
with diarrhea before commencing the
Grape-Nuts, because her stomach was
so weak she could not digest her food.
Since using Grape-Nuts she le well,
and eaya she don’t think she could live
without It.
"It Is a great brain restorer and
nerve builder, for I can sleep as sound
and undisturbed after a supper of
Grape-Nuts as in the old days when (
could not realise what they meant by
a 'bad stomach.’ Thera Is no medi
cine so beneficial to nerves end brain
as a good night's sleep, such ae you
can enjoy after eating Grape-Nuts."
