Prosperity of the cotton farmer de
pends on whether he or the boll
weevil will collect on the Investment
3f time, labor and money In the rale
Ing of the cotton crop. The boll
weevil has done most of the collect
ing in the past several years, but
farmers now are preparing to put an
•nd to this by applying the govern
ment methods of control.
The boll weevil can be controlled
in any neighborhood by application
j of these methods, and all farmers
1 wbo have not already done so are
urged to mike their plans now to use
the control measures they have been
1 paying experts for thirty years to
1 work out. It Is not easy to control
the boll weevil. It takes work and
! ttudy, but It pays when It is done
right. It is a waste of time and
money when it is done wrong.
We used to think that mosquitoes
did no more than sting us. Now we
know they cause malaria, and by
•creening our houses we keep out
malaria. The scientists taught us
these things. They can’t tell us how
to destroy all the mosquitoes, but
they tell us how to conroi them and
to escape their damages. So the
•dentists ar e telling us how to con
trol the boll weevils. Their methods
•re not perfect, but they are practi
i cal; they have been tested by farm
ers who have tak tn pains to study,
to learn and to fight the pest day by
day and week by week.
An Important part of the general
plan of weevil control is good farm
ing. That may be practiced by every
farmer and will help very much. It
will pay even when there is no wee
vil damage or when the weather
makes poisoning too expensive for
profit. In brief, the best farmers be
gin fighting t' e boll weevil by:
L Putting the soil in fine condi
tion; a good seed bed is necessary
to obtain the best results.
2. Planting after danger of frost
Is past and the earth is warm enough
to cause quick sprouting and a good
stand.
3. Using selected soed of a variety
that matures early.
4. Fertilizing highly to make quick
growth and set bolls before the wee
vils multiply enough to destroy the
crop.
5. Narrow spacing, a hoe’s width,
•nd one to three stalks to the hill.
6 Putting cotton on well-drained
land that under average conditions
Will make at least a bale to three
acres and adopting the slogan, "More
cotton to the acre, not more acres to
cotton."

Seven Means of Influ
encing Her’ Daughter
I am prying to encourage my
daughter to select the right kind of
husband in seven different ways,
lhey are; —
1. By teaching her to value a man
not by his wealth, his looks, or
what his people have done, but by
his good character and what ne him
self has done.
2. By knowing all the boys and
men with whom she is friends and
encouraging her to look upon them
as friends rather than beaux until
she is at least 18.
3. By giving her an education.
She will therefore be more compe
tent to judge the kind of man suited
to her.
4. By keeping her employed 1 art
of the time during school vafcat.on
so that her mind will not run on
frivolous things only.
5. By giving her an interest in
her own home so she will not be
easily persuated to leave it for an
inferior one.
6. By teaching her to go regular
ly to Sunday school, church, club
meetings, and other places where
she will meet the right kind of peo
ple.
7. By being careful of the repu
tation of her girl associates. The
most upright characters are influ
enced by bad surroundings and it
would be easy to get entangled with
a man that would not make the
right kind of husband. —A Mother,
in The Progressive Farmer.

MRS. S. W. JOHNSON
Mrs. S. W. Johnson died at her
home in Summerville Wednesday
evening 8:55 o’clock, April 9th, after
an illness of 16 days.
Mrs. Johnson, who was Miss Mary
Elizabeth Woods, daughter of Sam
uel P. Woods, was born in Chattooga
county August 15, 1868. She was
about 16 years of age when married
to S. W. Johnson of this place, who
survives her. Surviving her are five
children, Mrs. G. W. Warsham, Mrs.
W. M. Denton, John S. Johnson,
Frank D. Joh r son, S. W. Johnson,
Jr., and several grandchildren, all
of this county. She was preceded by
two daughters several years ago,
Miss Mary E. Johnson, and Miss Al
lie G. Johnson.
She was a devoted Christian ard
a faithful mother. She united with
the church in her youth, being a
member for 43 years. She was 56
years of age at her death, and how
great it is that 43 of these years
were spent in God’s service. She
was ever willing to win somebody for
her Savior. She was a dear lover of
good meetings, in other words, she
was always about her Father’s busi
ness. trying to help some one out of
the awful sinful condition that they
were in. God always came first in
her l ! fe and then her home and fam
ily next. She is gone hut not for
<’otte”. Gone to rest from her la
bors. Gone to heaven. Gone +o
heaven because she said heaven ws
her destination, where there shall he

shall be no more pain, sick~ess and
death.

Central of Georgia Railway Points Out Opportun
ities to Develop South’s Natural Resources
Wonderful progress has been made during recent years in developing the na
tural resources of Georgia and Alabama. There is no reason for discouragements
or pessimism about the future of this section; Such feelings cannot exist when
the people understand the situation, but it is doubtful if Georgians and Alabamians
are awake to the wonderful possibilities of this territory.
Development of natural resources depends upon 1 technical knowledge or re
search, co-operation, and publicity. Prosperity may best be maintained and in
creased by development of both industry and agriculture in equal measure. Cot
ton seed grew into a great business, sharing with the staple itself in financial and
commercial importance. The peanut industry affords a like illustration. Georgia
will produce a billion peaches this year, bringing to the state $10,000,000. The
pecan crop of Georgia and Alabama last year was valued at more than $2,000,000.
But these values are only the primary crops and opportunity exists to utilize the.o
by-products of peaches and pecans, just as was dore with cotton and peanuts. This
section offers exceptional opportunities for the stock raiser to produce milk, pork
and beef, at low cost, through permanent pastures that afford grazing at least 50
per cent better than is considered excellent in other sections.
Industry is stimulated as the streams are harne.sed and hydro-electric power
is distributed. Southern textile mills consumed only 118,000 bales of cotton in 1860,
3,733,000 bales in 1922. This was 1,500,000 bales more than all the rest of the
United States. Spindles and looms have nearly doubled in Georgia and Alabama
in 15 years. Phenomenal progress has marked coal and iron development in Ala
bama and in the Chattanooga district, but the possibilities in other lines are bound
less and have scarcely been touched. Too many raw materials, especially minerals,
are being shipped elsewhere for manufacture instead of being manufactured at home.
One Georgia county, Wilkinson, it is estimated, has 4,500,000,000 tons of Kaolin
and refractory resources, worth, at currei t market prices, enough to pay the ex
penses of the World war, sufficient to supply present consumption of the United
States for 000 years. Wilkinson is only one of 15 counties forming a great clay
belt from Augusta to the Chattahoochee River. »
These Kaolins are highly refractory, standing tests superior to fire clay for
fire brick, yet there are manufactured only about ten or twelve thousand tons of
clay in Georgia and Alabama for refractory purposes, as against approximately
six million tons consumed in the United States.
There is iota light colored face brick manufactured in Georgia or Alabama,
yet our Georgia clays with other materials will make an excellent face brick.
'i i.re are mr-.utactured elsewhere in the United States approximately a bill’.-n
face brick annually.
In 1921 Georgia produced 116,000 tons of Kaolin clay which went into the
manufacture of paper, oil cloth, rubber and to a limited extent in whiteware.
About 150,000 tons were imported. None of this was manufactured in Georgia or
Alabama, - * — ~
The South produces 100 per cent of the Bauxite mined in the United States,
and manufactures none of it. The South produces 92 per cent of the Barytes: Geor
gia more than one-thiid of this; but Georgia manufactures not one pound of this
material. The South produces 60 per cent of the Graphite used in the United
States. Alabama ranks second in production, but recent reports of the United
States Bureau of Mines showed Alabama Graphite superior to imported Graphite
and equal to domestic material in the manufacture of crucibles. Vast deposits of
Fuller’s earfh a: d Mica await development. There are 52 commercial minerals and
44 of these are found on the lines of the Central of Georgia.
These are a few of the undeveloped resources and possibilities. The list might
be multiplied almost indefinitely.
The Central of Georgia Railway Company recognizes that its primary obliga
tion is to supply safe, adequate and depe.dable transportation to the territory de
pendent upon it. Moreover, it realizes a further obligation to do whatever it can
for the development of its territory, and to aid in advancing the prosperity of its
patrons. It mai: tains agricultural and industrial departments at its Savannah
headquarters, which will cheerfully answer and render service in the development
of the natuial resources of this section.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.
