Fine weather for sowing wheat
still prevails.
Mr. A. G. Quinn,the “Little Ni¬
agara” blacksmith, has been on the
job since his return from Florida
under rapid fire orders, and he is
using every means known to mod¬
ern srnithery, even to gas shells and
sweat bandages, in his determined
elforts to catch up.
Mrs. A. L. Dorsey, who has
been in Downey’s Sanitarium for
the past two weeks, is said to be
improving, now being able to walk
without crutches, and will probab¬
ly be able to return home in about
a week.
Mr. and Mrs. R. T, Kenimer,
Mr. and Mrs. J. II. Telford and
family motored over to ToccoaSun
day where they spent a few hours
with relatives.
Miss Icie Clark, daughter ofMrs.
J. T, Clark, spent Monday night
at the home of Alex. Davidson,
leaviugTuesday morning forGaines
ville to accept a position in a mil
lin'ery store.
Mr. F. G. Jones has a very fine
lot of mules in his new place of
abode at Hunt’s wagonyard.
Mr. J. P.Davidson spent his first
night in an army camp Sunday
night when he spent the night with
his brother, Henry, inCamp Sevier,
S. C. While there he was “shown
around” the camps, visited the
trenches, etc., and had a really en¬
joyable time.
Mr. IlenryAIJison having recent¬
ly bought the house and lot at
Mossy Creek church was amazed
when his attention was called by
some of his neighbors to the publi¬
cation of a notice of sale by the
sheriff, lie had bought the prop¬
erty from Mrs. Vickery (Boggs)
and had paid for it, but there was
a judgment for costs in a divorce
suit against Mrs Vickery and the
property was levied on to be sold
to make this money. Rather than
be bothered about it further Henry
has settled the costs and taken over
the ii fas. When one buys any¬
thing il is best to know the title is
good.
Dr. Norton is having some ad¬
ditions made to his barn this week.
Rev. Homer Thompson has been
given a place to fight the devil at
Tallapoosa, in Rome district next
year. Of course the good people
of Cleveland charge regret to see
him go, but they must reconcile
themselves for it is more than likely
the folks about Tallapoosa need
hisjpresence worse than we do here
and we ought to be willing to let
him go that he may do even more
good than he has done here, and
hope that Rev. D. S. Cherry, who
has been’’assigned the Cleveland
charge, will be a wonderful power
in the destruction of ignorance,
whithout which there is no evil.
Mr. Charlie Skelton did not
like his position with the Southern
Express Co., and has returned
home.
Reports from the forests con¬
vince us that the Woodmen of
Walker Mountain Camp had a
glorious time at their big feast Sat¬
urday night. There was a good
crowd present with a sprinkling of
beautiful feminine faces to offset
the withered and weatherbeaten
mugs of the men, men who, in¬
wardly are possessed of clean
minds and noble hearts.
Mr. Paul Dorsey, after a stay of
several months with the “old folks
at home” has again turned his
face westward and is bound for the
cold regions of the northwest.
Mr. C. F. Saine made a rushiitg
trip to Atlanta Saturday.
Jones Hears Billy Sunday
Captures Crook and Loses $1000.
A pickpocket is glad that Billy
Sunday is in town making his
drive against the devil. The pick¬
pocket might feel kind of hard to¬
ward Billy because his nefarious
profession is under the evangelical
bat), and Billy might feel hard to¬
ward the pickpocket because of
that same profession of thieving,
but when each reads this story, the
other will be glad.
F. G. Jones, of Cleveland, Ga.,
made a pilgrimage to Atlanta for
purpose of kneeling at the shrine
of Hilly Sunday. On his way back
from the tabernacle last night lie
felt someone run a hand into his
pocket. It was on a crowded street
car. The thief ran and so did
Jones, After a short chase Jones
captured the “dip” and started to¬
ward the police station. Now, it is
related that the influence of Billy
Sunday worked two good deeds
last night. The pickpocket broke
down and cried, telling Jones that
lie had heard Sunday and that if he
would turn him loose he would
take the advice of the great evange¬
list and follow the straight and
narrow path. In other words, he
promised to “hit the sawdust
trail.” Jones, in his turn, had
heard the sermon of the great evan
galist, and into his heart entered a
spirit of mercy, of pity and of for¬
giveness toward his fellowinan.
He agreed to allow the crook, to
go withoug punishment. Hut it is
also related that the “dip” gave
back to Jones all of the latter’s
money, his watch and a good bit
of his own (the pickpocket’s)
change. Jones now wants to
know if there is a law of compen¬
sation that works in material fash¬
ion, or if Billy would censure him
for taking the pickpocket's jack,—
Atlanta Constitution.
We have from good authority
learned that what Mr. Jones re¬
ceived from the pickpocket for his
release has been sent to Hilly Sun¬
day, but what has had the greatest
tendency to pull Mr. Jones’ head
beneath his feet was the informa¬
tion from police headquarters in
Atlanta that the man he caught
was a professional crook, and that
$1000.00 is offered for his delivery
to the police officers. Thus Mr.
Jones made a $1000 mighty quick
and lost it in about the same length
of time.

APPLY PRINCIPLES OF
BUSINESS TO FARMING
Assists Operator In Organizing Farm
For Future Operations
A simple system of accounts or farm
book-keeping to determine the cost
of producing cotton, corn, hay, hogs,
cattle and other enterprises should be
helpful to any farmer that he may have
a more intimate knowledge of his busi¬
ness. Especially should it be desira¬
ble at this time because of reorganiz¬
ing the farm to meet weevil conditions.
Enterprises that have heretofore occu¬
pied major places in the business may
be decreased and others occupying
minor places increased.
When the operator has a record of
the cost and the time spent on each
enterprise, he is in much better posi¬
tion to bring about a proper distribu¬
tion of labor and a correlation of en
terprises that is profitable. It is not
enough that, one crop or enterprise be
profitable. The success of the farmer
is measured by the returns from the
whole farm.
The Division of Agronomy of the
State College of Agriculture has pre¬
pared a time hook and ledger to take
care of all the costs of labor and ma¬
terials as well as the receipts from the
different enterprises. At the begin¬
ning of the year an inventory is taken
of the real estate, live stock, feed and
supplies, and machinery and tools. At
the end of the year a similar inven¬
tory is taken. The days of man and
mule labor are recorded in the time
book for each enterprise and trans¬
ferred to the ledger at the end of the
year. All other items of expenditures
and receipts for each crop, or enter¬
prise, are entered directly in the ledg¬
er. It is a comparatively easy matter,
by the use of the inventories and the
accounts against the different, crops,
to determine the cost of growing cot¬
ton, corn, oats, cowpeas, hogs, cattle
and other enterprises of the farm.
These costs may, and generally do,
vary for each individual form.
With this information at hand the
business for the year may be summa¬
rized to show what returns the farm
is making. An analysis of the busi¬
ness made possible in this way often
shows up the defects to be corrected
and materially assists the operator in
formulating plans and better organiz¬
ing the farm for future operations.—
