Mr. Paul M. Lang, who now
owns the celebrated Guest mill
pond, has been enjoined by parties
owning lands flooded by the water
of the pond, from cutting the dam
and letting off the water and hav
ing a fishery unless he shall enter
into a bond to repair the dam and
continue to operate the grist mill
as heretofore. There seems to be
in existence an old contract which
guarantees to them this right in
perpetuity. To permit the abro
gaiion of the contract at this time
would divest a needful right.
J. W. Morris Badly Hurt.
A party of Atkinson county peo
ple composed of Messrs. Joel W.
Brooker. John W. Morris, Daniel
Metts and son, Ilerschel, started
to Florida in a Ford car —Ilerschel
Metts driving. Mr. Brooker owns
a small orange grove near Geneva
and was returning there after sev
eral weeks spent at his old home in
Atkinson county. The others were
accompanying him on a sight see
ing expedition.
They left Pearson Wednesday
morning, going by Waycross and
the Central Dixie highway. On
the highway the driver was guilty
of speeding, and in an effort to
make a sharp curve at Gowen’s &
Vickery’s turpentine still the car
was driven into a heavy sand bed
and being suddenly checked the
momentum caused it to turn turtle.
All the men were caught under the
car but none seriously hurt except
Mr. Morris. He suffered a severe
cut around his head about ten in
ches in length. Just bow and what
caused the cut none of the party
could say.
After being released from the
car the party proceeded to Folks
ton where Mr, Morris received
surgical attention. Mr. Brooker
took the first train for his Florida
home. Mr. Metts and son returned
borne. Relatives of Mr. Morris
were notified and they went to
Folkston and brought him home
Friday* night. He is improving
rapidly and it is thought he will
be able to leave his room in a few
days. He was rendered very weak
by the loss of blood. He expresses
deep gratitude to the surgeon who
ministered to him and to the peo
pie of Folkston generally for many
kindnesses.

“We ought to reduce county ex
penses in most of our counties,”
says The Progressive Farmer, “but
it should be done by better busi
ness management, and not by do
ing away with constructive agen
cies such as the couuty demonstra
tion agent, home demonstration
agent and public welfare officer, or
by decreasing the efficiency of the
county superintendent of schools.
Better business methods in the
various county offices would often
reduce expenses.” There should
be a budget system in every conn
ty and every officer conduct his
finances to meet its provisions.

Preparing for the Fall Litters
Now is the time to prepare for
the proper care of the fall litters.
Fallfarrowed pigs can be made
profitable if properly handled, but
it is doubtful if the fall litters are
profitable if allowed to go through
the winter and ou the pastures next
summer to be fattened with the
spring Jitters the next fall. They
come at a season when there may
be an abundance of cheap feed for
the sows. They require but little
feed to keep them growing during
the winter, for the young pig
makes the best use of feed. But
they do not do well in mud and
dirty sleeping quarters during the
cold weather of winter.
If the pigs come in September
and October, by the time they are
weaned in November and Decem
ber there may bo ready for them
greeu feed, which while saving a
little feed will greatly increase the
growth during the winter. Of
course, there will be times during
the winter, especially in the north
ern parts of the Cotton Belt and
during severe winters, that the
pigs cannot do much grazing, but
during these short periods they
will do well on corn, peanuts, soy
beans, and tankage.
But fall litters require more at
tention to lots, feeding troughs, or
floors, sleeping quarters, and gen
eral care. Some protection from
worms and lice is also required as
well as from mud, dampness, and
cold. Now is the time to make
ready for giving the fall litters the
feed and care necessary to make
them profitable.—The Progressive
Farmer.
Community Fair.
Every neighborhood should have
a comm unity fair. This is one of
the greatest agencies for stimulat
ing friendly rivalry in all good
work. In this way the biggest
achievements of individuals are
brought to the atteution of all the
people. Moreover, the training in
cooperation and public service
that the people get in developing
a community fair prepares them
for progressive co-operation along
many other useful lines. Farmers
who have made a success of a
