MANY THOUSANDS
FOR GOOD ROMS
NUMBERS OF HIGHWAY PROJECTS
HAVE BEEN APPROVED AND
OTHERS ARE PENDING
GOVERNMENT WILL GIVE AID
Two Hundred And Seventy Thousand
Dollars To Be Spent Therefor
Before Spring
Atlanta—
Before spring $270,000 worth of im¬
provements, half of the money to
come from the United States govern¬
ment and the other half from state
sources, will have been put on ap¬
proximately 115 miles of roadway in
Georgia.
Between this date and the end of
this month a meeting will be held
by the state highway department, and
all plans will be laid and projects per¬
fected for the 1918 improvement
schedule, in which there will be ex¬
pended $540,000 on the same equal
division.
Insofar as the part to be played by
the counties is concerned, the federal
government will decide that the use of
convict labor being acceptable to the
department of agriculture, the pay for
such labor shall be on the per diem
basis and not on a maintenance ba¬
sis.
Under the law all projects for one
year’s program must be approved be¬
fore the federal money is available,
j j Three of this year’s projects are now
pending in Washington, and Judge Pat¬
terson of the state commission expects
approval at. any time. So soon as he
has received that notice he will go to
Washington.
The projects already approved are
the Macon-Atfenta highway of 70 miles
and the Bacon county project of 15
miles. Those pending and which
Judge Patterson believes will be ap¬
proved in a few days are the Hail
Lumpkin project of ten miles; the
Walton-Oconee project, etc., ten miles,
and the Brooks county project of ten
miles. In these the figures on mile¬
age is approximate.
Will Urge Exemption Of Farmers
Commissioner of Agriculture J- J.
Brown plans to go to Washington in
the interest of the exemption of farm¬
ers, subject to draft, who are essen¬
tial to the operation of farms in
Georgia.
A number of cases have been called
to the attention of the commissioner.
He is particularly apprehensive lest
the failure to exempt farmers may
handicap the pianling of next year’s
crops.
Maj. Joel B. Mallett of the adjutant
general’s office stated that the exten¬
sion of time until December 1, which
has been granted to farmers where
the district hoard deemed their cases
warranted, is practically upon this
call, since by the time their extension
expires practically the entire quota
for (he first call will have been made
up.
Farmer Gets $20,000 For Cotton
Judge J. W. Quineey of Douglas
cold from his present cotton crop 18T
bales of short staple, cotton at a round
price of 25 cents a. pound, and his
check amounted to a few hundred dol¬
lars over twenty thousand dollars.
The farmers generally are prosperous
in Coffee. Even the one-and-t wo-horse
negro share croppers will pay all their
debts and have left from $500 to 2,
000. A negro share cropper of two
plows tame into Douglas a few days
ago and paid $1,150 cash for an auto¬
mobile and had money left in the
bank.
To Confer On Highway Projects
Judge T. E. Patterson, chairman of
ihe state high commission, will go to
Washington t 0 make another effort to
get Georgia state highway projects
into shape where federal funds may
be used for the improvement of the
several projects which are now pend¬
ing before the United States secretary
of agriculture. The principal object
of this trip to Washington will be to
arrive at a basis upon which Geor
I gja convict labor may be counted as
! a pari of the state’s contribution to
! meet federal funds.
Grazing Texas Cattle In Georgia
I One way of disposing of surplus
1 food crops raised this year in south
j west Georgia and southeast Alabama
1 which is meeting with much favor, is
| fattening Texas cattle thereon. hauled 'I from rain
j loads of cattle are being
i Texas and turned into the velvet bean
j I fields. and fed on other surplus feed
crops .which are so abundant here this
j j year. The extent to which this prac
tice is being followed throughout the
j | section is sufficient money-making to make ventures it one
of the leading
j in the agricultural industry.
Asserts Jury Exemptions Are Valid
Attorney General Clifford Walker
has handed down an opinion holding
that the National Guard of Georgia is
still in existence and the jump exemp¬
tion purchased from the militia is val¬
id. His opinion as to the existence
of the state militia is corroborated by
a federal opinion.
There are now in the hands of citi¬
zens who are subject to call for jury
flnty a large number of such jury* ex¬
emption certificates, which, in several
recent instances, the Fulton courts
have declined to recognize.
DECISION IS ASKED
ON DRAFT APPEALS
General Daniel And Major Mallet Hold
Conference And Submit
Matter
Atlanta—
The tangle which has arisen over
the wholesale appeal to the north
Georgia district board by the govern¬
ment of exemption claims which have
been granted by local boards will be
referred to Provost Marshal General
Crowder for a ruling for the guidance
of the board an dthe county attor¬
neys representing the government in
handling (he cases.
Upon receipt of a letter from the
district board, setting forth that coun¬
ty attorneys have appealed to the
board approximately ten thousand
cases, without in a single instance fil¬
ing with the appeal the duplicate af¬
fidavits required by the provost mar¬
shal in cases where additional evi¬
dence is submitted, Acting Adjutant
General M. J. Daniel and Major Mal¬
let held a conference and it was de¬
cided to ask the provost marshal for
a ruling.
The request, upon the provost mar¬
shal will go forward by letter, and it
is expected that information upon the
situation will probably be forthcoming
before the end of the week.
The situation is ihal county attor¬
neys, zeing designated to represent
the government before the local
boards, have automatically appealed a
tremendous number of claims granted
by the local boards without submit¬
ting to the. district board" any fur¬
ther information than the name, se¬
rial number and order number of the
registrant whose claim is appealed,
in cases where additional information
has been submitted it has been only
in the form of notifications of infor
ination brought to the county attor¬
ney, rarely with the name of the in¬
formant given and in no instance lias
the information rims submitted been
in the form of sworn testimony.
The rules of the provost marshal
general governing appeals from local
boards on behalf of the government,
provide that where additional evidence
is submitted it shall be in the form
of affidavits, made out in duplicate,
one of which shall be filed with the
district board and the other to be for¬
warded, together with a notice of the
appeal, to the registrant whose grant¬
ed claim is under fire. The regis¬
trant then lias five days in which to
file counter affidavits wtih the board.
Selectmen Pouring In To Camp
Selectmen of both races continued
.to arrive at camps throughout the
state in large numbers, the colored
contingent coming entirely from Geor¬
gia, while the white selectmen came
from ail the three states in the Eigh¬
ty-second division.
The work of registering the men
into service is .lushed with every pos¬
sible strength, and so expert have
the mustering officers become that
several hundred an hour is the sched¬
ule I hat now prevails.
The negro selectmen are all assign¬
ed to the first provisional regiment,
under Colonel Nelson, regardless of
their past experience or qualifications,
and ale rad.i a large number of the
men are in uniform, and hard at work
in squad drills and the other many
rudimentary instructions in whipping
them into soldiers.
Dorsey Urges Buying Liberty Bonds
Pointing out. that Georgia lias con¬
tributed her quota of men to the fight
ing farces of the nation in its war
against Germany for liberty, Governor
Hugh M. Dorsey issued a statement
to the bankers of Georgia calling upon
them and all citizens of Georgia to
subscribe to the extent of their abil¬
ity to the second issue of the Liberty
bonds, “in order that our men may
be properly equipped and maintained
in their tight for our country.”
Governor Dorsey is lending his full
co-operation to the campaign for the
sale of Liberty bonds in Georgia.
“Every dollar subscribed now,” says
the governor in his statement, "will
tend to bring the war to an early ter¬
mination and may, therefore, be the
means of saving the lives of a great
many of our men.”
Preparing To Collect War Tax
A, O. Blalock, collector of internal
revenues for Georgia has forwarded to
tobacco dealers throughout the state
forms for taking inventories of all to¬
bacco now' on hand in accordance writh
the new federal bill increasing reve¬
nue tax rates, which became law with
the affixing of President. Wilson’s sig¬
nature.
Georgia tobacco dealers are instruct¬
ed by Collector Blalock to hold a rec¬
ord of their tobacco stocks until reg¬
ular inventory forms are reseived. On
receipt of the regular forms, the in¬
ventory must be copied on it. There
are some 8,000 dealers in tobac¬
co in this state.
The new revenue bill provides for a
decided increase in taxes on tobacco,
snuff, cigars and cigarettes.
Campaign Opened To Prevent Waste
Plans for the United States govern¬
ment’s whirlwind campaign to secure

Girls! Use Lemons!
Make a Bleaching, f
Beautifying Cream
The juice of two fresh lemons strain¬
ed into a bottle containing three ounces
of orchard white makes a whole quar¬
ter pint of the most remarkable lemon
skin beautlfier at about the cost one
must pay for a small jar of the ordi¬
nary cold creams. Care-should be tak¬
en to strain the lemon Juice through a
fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in,
then this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that lem
on juice is used to bleach and remove
such blemishes ns freckles, sallownoss
and tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoofhener and beautlfier.
Just try it! Get three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra¬
grant lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and hands. It
naturally should help to soften, fresh¬
en, bleach and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin. It; is simply mar¬
velous to smoot hen rough, red hands.

f No foolishness! Lift your corns

t It's like magic!
Sore corns, bard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corn, can harmlessly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
apply upon the corn a few drops of
freezone, says a Cincinnati authority.
For little- cost one can get a small
bottle of freezone at any drug store,
which will positively rid one's feet of
every corn or cnllus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
it is applied and does not even irri¬
tate the surrounding skin while ap¬
plying it or afterwards.
This announcement will interest
many of our readers. If your druggist
hasn’t any freezone tell him to surely
get a small bottle for you from his
