It sounds like a popular plunk. —Dublin Courier Herald. Candidate Talmadge says he will help the farmer. We can’t suppoi tany more “farmer help ers.” The farmer has been helped out of about all he had. The soon er the farmer wakes up to the fact that his “relievers” are us ing him for a stalking horse, the sooner will be his recovery. Greensboro Herald Journal.

An unusually importantembez element case of more than a qua ter of a century ago was recallei by the recent death of Frank G Bigelow, once president of the First National Bank of Milwai kee. Bigelow began his career as a bank runner, rose to presiden cy ,and lost a million and a half ol its funds in wheat speculation Convicted in 19C5, he served six years in Laayinworth prison, and since [ived in retirement, dying at the age of 84. It sounded a little singular foi a big bunch of financiers of oui state to wire congratulation t< Congressman Crisp on his open ing radio address the other day. They feel confident thay know where their candidate stands Yau never hear of this bunch wiring Governor Russell on his opening speech. The thing has resolved itself, in the opinion ol the little fellows, such as are claimed compose the Russell supporters, that when a man if fed from the public trough for twenty years, and pleases the rich and mighty, that little may be expected of him for the masses. Duley Glass in Georgian says: We Atlanta folks are ac customed to think of Middle and South Georgia as a land of gooc farms and big crops and of Wie northern counties as producing more scenery than foodstuffs But Editor Edge, of The Pickens County Progress—that’s up around Tate and Jasper—com ments on the numerous tax sales advertised in a Middle Georgia county says: "It has been so long since a farm was sold for taxes in Pick ens County that we don’t know when it occurred, Here is the reason: Pickens County farmers grow a large portion of their own supplies, while those in the other counties perfer to plant nearly all their land in cotton. We never knew a farm sold for taxes on which was a crib full of corn. It was found on analysis of 10,000 consecutive labors report ed from Johns Hopkins Hospital that 32 percent of the total num ber of deaths up to 14 day s after birth were due to syphilis.— Wylie. When Doctors Scare Us. In recent years the idea that everyone should have a rigid medical examination at least once a year,whether he feels any symp toms of disease or not, has been advocated by leading insurance companies. Tnere is no doubt that such ex aminations frequently disclose incipient stages of diseases which may be checked or cured by early treatment. The practice of periodical examination is attended by one element of danger, however, ac cording to Dr. Charles Hunter of Winnipeg, who warns physicans against suggesting the presence of diseases unless they are quite certain of their diagnosis. He states that he has seen healthy people develop actual symptoms only after a medical examination in which the examiner had sug gested the possibility of organic trouble, and he declares that ii is“bigh time to protest against tfie physicans instilling doubt and fear in a healthy person.” It would seem incredible that any reputable physician,. know ing as he does the power of sug gestion, should intimate that a person examined may be diseas ed unless he is positive that such is actually the case. But if Dr Hunter is correct in his state ment, it appears that they some times do make such mistakes. It is all right and proper to told memorial services for the lead, but how much better if we neld a few meetings on healtl mil sanitation and prevented : few funerals. —Georgia’s Health A man who almost became ; bridegroom in Minneapolis ap peared before the county clerl with the pieces of a license am said: "We quarried and she ton up the license.

Reconstruction Finance Corpor ation anil in the interest of big busi ness I did not vote tor the sales tax and in the interest of the wealthy at the expense of the common people. I did not vote for the cash payment to ax-service men of the balance due them on their adjusted service certifi cates for the reason that the payment to this one group of our citizens of 82 , 400,000,0c0.00 would cost each nan, Woman and child in America >20.00 in additonal taxes. There are ess than four million people in the United States who pay a Federal ln •ome Tax.

May 25, 1932. Eschol Graham. For Congress To the people of the First Congress ional District of Georgia: 1 am a candidate for Congress from the First Congressional District of Georgia, subject to the rules of the Democratic primary to be held Sep tember 14th. 1932. Having been born and reard on the farm, my knowledge of the problems and burdens of our farmers is first hand and practical rather than theor etical and supetficlal. Believing that the basic wealth of this country comes from the soil, and that the whole country prospers only in proportion to the prosperity of our farmers and laborers, who produce this wealth, and knowing that the farmers cannot much longer exist upon prsent prices of farm products, I pledge myself to the support of legislation which will force an increase in the price of farm products so the farmer may be placed upon a basis of equality with other business and industry. The issue upon which I ask the support of the voters of this district will be discussed by me in every coun ty of the distrietduring the campaign, and if you agree with the democratic principles of government that I stand for, your support will be highly ap preciated . Respectfully yours, ALBERT L. COBB.

A Palm Leaf 11 Feet Long and 16 Feet Wide It is known as the Tailpat Palm and grows luxuriantly in the Moun tains of Ceylon. It bears leaves which are of great use to the inhabitants. During sudden showers from fifteen to twenty natives find shelter under a single leaf. Rev. H. Caventer says that he has seen specimens which were 11 feet in length and 16 feet in breadth. The inhabitants of Ceylon find them useful in many ways. Oue single leaf is utilized as a complete cover for a Ceylon river raft. This palm is de scribed by Robert Knox in his book entitled "Curiosities of the Vegetable Kingdom." I “Some Punkin’” Over 100 Lbs. in Weight—6 54 Feet in Circumference The "King” of all Pumpkins. Mr. Albert Clayburgh, who grew this mar vel is a New York City business man, but he has given the farmer some thing hard to match. His home and garden is in Mt. Kisco, N Y. While exceptional growth of this kind is unusual, growers should take notice that laige yields are possible through the proper application of nitrogen, which all agricultural spe cialists recognize as the growth ele ment in fertilizers. Quality products bring best prices in the market and high yield means low labor cost. And nitrogen in quick ly available form is best fed to grow ing crops by top-dressing and side dressing with Arcadian Nitrate of Soda. This American-made prodifbt contains an exceptionally high per centage of nitrogen: the growth ele ment for all farm products.

Kt Here's a Real Head of Cabbage How happy "Jiggs” would be to see this head of cabbage. Cooked I with good corned beef, this one cab , bage would make a meal for all : "Dinty Moore’s" friends. The picture of the boy' standing i beside it gives you a good idea of ' its enormous size. The photograph , from which this drawing was made was taken at Chertsey Agricultural i Show, Lyne, England. As success in truck farming de pends upon high yield and quality products, truck farmers everywhere are heavy users of fertilizers. It is interesting to note that many American farmers are now not I only growing superior products but I also getting greater yields than our European neighbors. Corn Stalk Grows 2154 Ft. High Mr. C. G. Atwater, a New York Agricul tural expert reports a corn stalk 21 feet | high which grew in North Carolina. Other growers have claimed the world's record for height at thirteen and . a half feet but Mr. At i water's corn dwarfs I this. However, many ex traordinary yields I from corn fields throughout the south are being reported by farmers who are using modern scien tific methods of fer tilization, —o — They find that ni trogen in quickly available form, such as the Nitrate of Soda made in the United States, produces high- er per acre yields thus reducing labor costs, improves quality and, in turn, brings market prices greatly above the average.
