Editor Marietta Journal,
Dear Sir:
It is very good and encouraging
news indeed that the Marietta pro
gressive business men have taken one
very important step in the right di-l
rection toward relieving the present
depressing situation by creating bct-!
ter marketing conditions through the |
grain elevator that we are assured
will be erected here soon. Now that
the good work is started I hope your |
paper will kindly allow space for the
outlining of an idea that if taken
wp by our able business men, possi
bly in connection With the proposcd
grain elevator company, would, I be
lieve, do more toward reviving and
restoring general prosperity than any
other one thing along this line.
There are many small farmers who
have not the necessary acreage on|
which to grow grain, not the ma
chinery for harvesting it, but who
could profit by the plan outlined be
low. There has been much said
about cotton, boll weevils, diversified
crops and so on; but I think that
practically everyone will agree that
one of the msot important present
need is better marketing facilities for
crops that can, under the present
general condition of the average cot
ton lands of the county, most easily
and profitably, take the place of'
King Cotton as a money crop on ev-‘
ery farm with proper storage, curingl
and marketing facilities. That crop |
is Porto Rican Yam sweet potatoes. |
Any of the average cotton lands of |
the county will easily produce one |
hundred bushels of marketable po-g
tatoes and better lands proportionally |
more per acre. Now we have the!
worn out cotton land which in its‘
present state will produce good vields
of potatoes and hundred of farmers
who would be anxious to enter con
tract to grow an acre or two to the
plow at a moderate price, say $l.OO
per bushel delivered in bulk at a
wqring housze in Marietta. ‘
Now what the farmers need is to |
enlist the sympathy of the local busi- |
ness men who are wiiling to take care
Wt hat part of the problem which
the farmers cainot. The farmers
heed to interest men who can and
will build and establish a proper po
ta'o curing house of large capacity,
and who will secure a man who is ex
pert and experienced in the process
of storage and curing sweet potatoes
and the pvrover grading and crating of
tkem in presentable form for advan
tageous marketing—men who know
how to put the potatoes on Northern
markets where thev will demand a
good price, men who will see that
Marietta bas, immediately, a much
needed ‘Potato Growers Co-opera
tive Curing and Marketing Associa
tion” and give the farmers the priv
jlege of selling through the Assorcia-|
tion on a commission basis any po-.
tatoes they might grow and cture in
individual curing houses on the farm. |
Let's get tozether and co-operate
for the general good of all, let con
tracts to the farmers, which should
be evenly distributed among them
according to their farming capacity,
one or more acres to the plow: what
ever is required to fill the house of
the size you wish to build, let the
farmers go ahead with the prepara
tion and growing of the potatoes and
there will be ample time for the com
pletion of the curing plant while the
crops are growing and all be in read
iness to receive the crops by digging
time next fall.
Potatoes are a great food ~rop not
onlv for folks but also for livestock
on the farm. With the production of
thousands of bushels of salable nota
tees there would raturally be hund
reds of bushels of culls which could
be utilized to great advantace as
food for manv additional porkers on
the farms of the county.
Sweet nntatoes are also excellent
food for mileh cows,
Let’s pull together and nrosner and
_'(‘“'"(f VY “)cgrw-h‘ti”n.—‘-" \Vith {‘],l

many wise things bearing upon the
standard of the true soldier, and, said
Dr. Patton, “we have three express
rions that coordinate with our thoughts
on this occasion. In first Timothy,
1-18, ‘A good Warfare’; In second
‘Timothy 4-7, ‘A good fight’; in sec
ond Timothy 2-3, ‘A good Soldier.’
~ Paul was a Roman citizen, but was
perfectly familiar with the military
usages and vicissitudes of soldiery
of the great Roman Empire. Where
ever he went he found Roman sold
iers. He had every opportunity of
familiarizing himself with all the de
tails of military life, from the squad
drill in the camp to the fierce com
bats on the fields of Mars. He had
these details in mind when he said
to voung Timothy “Endwre hardness
as a good soldier.”
What is a good soldier? Here Dr.
Patton enumerated five points in the
standard suggested by Paul, viz: “En
listment, (Enrollment, joining the
army), second, Disentanglement, 3rd,
Endurance; 4th, Obedience; sth,
Self-sacrifice. Dr. Patton here show
ed in detail that Horace Orr met all
of the requirements stated. We were
made to visualize mentally him and
his companions leaving their homes
and bidding good-bye to mother and
sweet Heart—fair-haired and brigh*-
eyed youths full of hope and enthusi
asm. We see them hattling, leaping
bravely into the leaden storms from
the enemy’s guns—now in victory,
rarely in defeat—but always per-l
forming matchless valor. We hear
again the lone bugle calling theml
from their tired sleep to take up agai
the grim serial of battle. We seo{
them battered and wounded and hun-‘
gry,responding to the call of valor
and duty. We see them overwhelm
ed by numbers, yet remaining daunt
less until victorious.
But this was not the only warfre in
which this soldier boy was engaged,
said Dr. Patton, He had enlisted and
been mustered into the “Army of
the Lord"—he put on the armor of
God and went from th¢ House of
Cod equipped for the fight against
an enemy greater than Germany;
—namely, the “Prince of the Power
of the Air”
We thus have a comfortable as
surance that God said of this young
man what He said of voung Timothy:
“Thou are a Good Solider of Jesus
Christ.”
At the conclusion of the sermon,
‘Col. J. Colton Lynes, former Adju
tant General of Georgia, U. C. V.
irepresentingx the Confederate Vete
rars, read a poem which was a veri
\mble paean of the love of a nation
for “Heroes immortal, who died for
the right.”
The funeral was very largely at
tended. The interment was in Mars
Hill cemetery near Acworth, Ga.
After the three salutes of Honor
were fired by the escort from Ft.
' McPherson, Captain Lindley Camp in
touching and beautiful language,
presented the flag to the mother of
‘the Honored Hero.
. The solemn, yet tuneful ‘“taps”
sounded and we left, rejoicing in ghe
fact that—
‘ “Character survives,
| To live in hearts we leave behind,
| Is not o die.”
. —J. COLTON LYNES.

One of the things that every woman
knows is the adaptability of the sepa
rate skirt of plain black satin. With
one of these and with blouses for dress
or semi-dress affairs, to be worn with
it, the average woman can look the
coming winter in the face with a mind
at rest, The skirt pictured is
adroned with a long row of small
satin-covered buttons and loops.

Reasons
Every battery has
two kinds of wear—the
natural slow wear due
to use, and the more
rapid wear that comes
from abuse.
Keep the proper
amount of water in
your battery by putt
ing in a little every two
weeks. Test with the
hydrometer to make
sure there’s enough
charge. Come in to
Battery Headquarters
at the first faint sign
of trouble. '
Then your battery will
wear out slowly and grad

rupted service at lowest
cost per month and per mile,
