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. t'opyrlght 1914 by the McClure News paper Syndicate. New Y’ork City. Tomorrow's story—" Julia's Dream.” DARDANELLES CLOSED. London, 5:22 s-m.

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. QUITMAN PUTS ON BIG FAIR AND CARNIVAL.

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. DEIMEL LINEN-MESH UNDERWEAR HAS ARRIVED The ideal undergar ments for winter.
