How Ii It that Southern men can

aArak the whole truth, we feel, even
kI we exhort our fellow citizens to

there will be but few to give heed to

MR. FOX’S SCHEME.
One day when Mr. Kahhit was gath
ering the l»«t of hia late vegetable*
from hi* garden Mr. Fox looked over
hi* fence.
"Uood morning, friend Rabbit,” lie
Maid; "what fine vegetable* you have;
you certainly are a lucky fellow to
have a friend like ine to appreciate
them, and 1 will take the largeat of
them hotne with me, n* I am larger
than you and need more to eat.”
Mr. Rabbit picked out the largeet
and gave them to Mr Fox. "Ye*,
friendship i* a great thing,” lie re
marked; "I feel that I am greatly
MHkMK
nTjSrr *
yvt’* sro*i*
blessed to be able to mak my frtende
happy."
latter In the winter when It grew
colder Mr Kox said: "I really must
horroto ' i Rabbit's stovs. I know ho
will be abut to lend It to me."
He ran to Mr Rabbit's and knocked
at the door 'flood morning,” he said,
I have come to borrow your stove.
You can roll up In some straw tn n
comer."
"Yea, indeed," said Mr. Rabbit, for
he thought Mr. Kox the best friend he
ever had because he borrowed so
much "If he did not think so much
of me,” he said, "he would borrow
from someone else."
“Jones Always Knows”
They wore discussing Jones* excellent
btisine ability.
“Jones always knows where to buy
everything at the lowest price,” said his
friend.
“He always seems to do better than I
can in getting 100 cents worth for a dol
lar.”
Jones is merely the type of successful
man who believes in using his brains.
He is above all else a student of ad
vertising and he makes his newspajwr
pay for itself many times over bv the in
formation its advertisements give him.
INDOOR SPORTS
So Mr. Kox carried off Mr. Rab
bit's stove, and after a while be bor
rowed all his food, so that when the
spring came he hail left Mr. Rabbit
with hardly enough food to keep from
starving.
One morning Mr. Kox saw him sit
ting In front of his door, but he.did not
need anything so he did not stop. “Mr.
Rabbit looks so thin I am sure he'd
rather I would not stop. He surely
will take it as a kindness If I keep
away until he has grown fat again."
Mr. Rabbit wondered why liis friend
did not come to see him now that the
days were warm, and he re
marked to who lived in the
tree above his tuuhe that he had not
seen his friend Mr. Kox in a long time.
"You will see hint again next win
ter.” said the owl; "he will want
something then.”
"Yes. Mr. Kox Is s great friend of
mine," saiil Mr. Rabbit, “and I loamy!
him many things. He thought more of
me than anyone, and that was why he
came. Friendship is the greatest thing
in the world."
"You are right." said the owl. “hut
it strikes me that the friendship be
tween you two was one-sided; you
befriended Mr Kox, but how did he
show his friendship for you?”
"Ry allowing me to befriend him,"
replied Mr. Rabbit. “The joy of hav
ing a friend you can help and make
happy Is a great blessing, I can assure
you, Mr. Owl”
"l ipilte agree with you on that
point." replied Mr, Owl: "hut the
friend who takes all you have and
then leaves you to starve cannot ap
preciate such friendship ns you speak
of Think that over. Mr. Rabbit," said
the owl as he flew away.

and Tent Company, which began ope
rations In April, being therefore one
of the rfiost recently estalflished of

MORE CONCERNS BUY
COTTON IN THE SOUTH.
Atlanta, 6*.- Interesting develop
ments today In the “buy-a-bale-of
cotton” movement, included announce
ment of the purchase of approximate
ly 1,000 bales by the Maxwell Motor
Company, of Detroit. The company’s
local agent here received instructions
to buy one bale for cash, at 10 cents,
direct from a farmer, and the telegram
stated that similar Instructions had
been sent to every agent of the com
pany south of the Mason and Dixon
lines.
It is estimated there are about 1,000
of these agencies in the South, includ
ing Texas. Instructions have come
from the Bulck Motor Company, of
Flint, Mich., to their agency here to
buy four bales at 10 cents, and simi
lar Instructions have been sent to
each of the seventy-five agencies in
the cotton belt, indicating a purchase
of 300 bales. The Southern Life and
Trust Company, of Greensboro. N. C.,
has taken 325 hales and calls on each
of its 300 agents throughout the cot
ton states to buy one bale each, mak
ing a total purchase of 625 bales. The
Hamilton Brown Shoe Company, of
St. Louis, has taken 250 bales at the
same price.

300 BUSHELS OF EGYPTIAN
WHEAT ON EIGHT ACRES.
Grown By ■ Coffee County Former.
Douglas, Ga. Ex-Representative
.lames T Hatfield, of Coffee Countv.
living three miles west of Douglas,
has just gathered and had -thrashed
300 bushels of Egyptian wheat grown
on an eight-acre tract this vear. and
weighing 63 pounds to the huahet.
This amount was gathered after Mr
Hatfield had permitted 400 head of
chickens to run on the wheat for sev
eral weeks, as Mr. Hatfteld Is In the
poultry business, and gives sperlal
attention to his chickens.
The wheat weighs more per bushel
than any other grain product grown
in this section and Is one of the
best products for chickens, cows. hogs,
and stock. In this section, where the
seasons are long, two full crops a
year can easily be grown to maturity
on the same land, and ran he grown
cheaper than almost any other forage
crop. This la the second vear Mr
Hatfteld has grown Kgyptlan wheat
Ij»*t > ear he had only a small amount
to teat the soil. Kgyptlan wheat will
very likely play Its part in reducing
the cotton acreage In South Georgia
another year
Already the commercial agent of
By Tad
the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic
Railroad has begun advertising the
wheat as one of the Coming food
products of Georgia and has placed
a large quantity of it on exhibition in
Atlanta.
NAVAL STORES CARGO FROM
BRUNSWICK TO BRAZIL
First in'Years to Be Shipped to Rio
Janeiro.
Brunswick, Ga. —A steamship is to
arrive In Brunswick tomorrow to take
on a load of naval stores for Brazil,
which will be the first cargo to be
shipped from this, or probably any
other South Atlantic port to that
country in ten or twelve years, and
which probably means the beginning
of a new business which this section
is to enjoy.
Local naval stores men state that
naval stores trade with Brazil has
been at a complete standstill for sev
eral years, due to the fact that they
have been receiving their finished
product from other countries. This,
it is pointed out, has not been cut off
by the European war and it is their
purpose to buy the raw product and
manufacture their own goods.
The steamer which is due here to
morrow comes from New York part
ly loaded and after taking on a cargo
will sail for Rio. It is believed that
it is the first of a number of ships
which will arrive in the near future
for naval stores cargoes.
CANNING PRAWN BY
HUNDREDS OF BUSHELS
In Brunswick Canneries.
Brunswick, Ga. —Four large fishing
boats arrived ttf Brunswick yesterday
from the Gulf coast and will engage
in catching *>rawn for one of the local
factories which has Just opened for
business. These boats have been
erected especially for the purpose of
catching prawn and they are to be
manned by men experienced In the
business.
Brunswick’s third big shrimp fac
tory has Just started to work, and
the industry is proving more than was
ever expected by the Brunswick Board
of Trade, which was instrumental in
bringing the first factory to Bruns
wick. What was at first reckoned
only as a small industry has, after
the plants have been In operation for
only a few weeks, developed into one
of the largest and best paying indus
tires along the coast.
Brunswick's three factories are can
ning anywhere from 200 to 400 bushels
of prawn each day. The fishermen
are being paid 31.60 per bushel for
their shrimp, and that. too. when they
are delivered. Possibly seventy-five
boats, of various kinds and sizes, are
now' engaged in this work. Each of
the planta are giving employment to
a large number of hands, all of whom
are well paid, and the weekly pay rolls
are being easily felt by the merchants
of the city.
sl3l IS THE WORTH OF
EACH HORSE IN GEORGIA
Atlanta, Ga. —The Georgia horae ia
now worth 3131 a head, according to
James D. l’rice. Georgia commission
er of agriculture, while a year ago he
was selling for 5123.
The latest census figures show that
123.000 horses, valued at t13.<33.000.
'are on the farms of Georgia Four
years ago there were 120,000 horses on
the farms and their value was dtven
at 315,000,000.
The advance In price Is rather a
paradox in view of the steady en
croachment of the automobile. Every
year the motor truck Is replacing
more and more draft horses, every
year the ojd buggy Is retired In favor
of an automobile More trucks and
curs can be seen on the streets than
horses or mules—and yet the prices
of both animals keep going up. Prob
ably the Increased acreage under cul
tivation makes an increased demsnd
for live stock and that keeps up the
pries.
