J. h GROSS, Propretor. Ent< at the Post Office at slnmo, Georgia, as second class ■■ail matter, May 16th, 1913, under And now Parks Rusk of the Atlanta life says that John Hold edr made $40,000.00 during the past two years. If John could make that much money in 1930 and in 1931 he is a wizzard and Georgia needs a governor with that capacity. —Claxton Enter prise. When Georgia goes at the job of electing a governor, just any old thing may happen, but when it comes to electing a senator she always does the right thing. That is one of many good reasons why Dick Russell will be nomi nated September 14th.—-Thomas ville Press. The old question of whether one is justified in putting a hopf less invalid out of his misery was again raised recently in Den matk, when Mrs. Els Bmgad mitted poisoning her mother. Baroness von Du'ben, wiho ulf sered from an incurable malady, at the mother’s request. Mrs. Bang was given a jail sentence of only three months, and after serving half of that time King Christian X pardoned her. The race for Governor is at present only a matter of forma tion in the minds of the people of this county. Most of the candi dates are strangers here and very little is known of them 01 their qualifications and platform. In the'ccuntry districts Mr. Tai madge lias a small following bul nothing stable. In the city John Holder seems to be the choice with Mr. Hardwick a few scat tering supporters. It is known that Holder’s friends are going to make a strong bid for the county vote and as matters seem to stand now will getit. —Thomas- ville press. What is Evidence? Every once in a while some tbing occurs to upset our idea concerning the kind of evidenct that is worthy of credence. Such an occurrence is seen in the ca-o of Conda Dabney, once convicted in Kentucky and given life im prisonment for the murder of a young woman. At the trial another woma swore that she was an eye witness to the crime, and a considerabh array of circumstantial evidenct was presented to corroborate her testimony. At the time •of Dab ney’s conviction, practically everyone felt that the verdict was just. Yet, a few weeks later the woman who was supposed to have been murdered showed up alive and well. Dabney was re leased, but think of what he and his family suffered through the diabolical attempt to swear his life away. Suppose he had been executed for the alleged crime? Many’ cases are of record in which it was proved later that innocent persons have actually been put to death through per- Fared testimony. In some in stances in which the condemned men have confessed murder the supposed victims have turned up alive. All this illustrates how unre iable the most convincing evi dence may be, and while it is doubtless true that for every in nocent person punished a dozen guilty ones escape, it shows that a great responsibility rests up on a jury, particularly when a human life is at stake. Mr. Crisp was caught with the goods on him while fixing the utility power charges on the con sumer instead of the producer, j where it belonged. A Georgia Power Company representative was found sitting at his elbow — paying a social call —at that c r u c i c al hour.—Thomasville Press. The religious issue will hardly be brought into the presidential campaign, although a third party might raise it. Hoover was placed in nomination at Chicago by a Catholic, and the new chairman of the Democratic national com mittee is also of that faith. “Stoo bad Arlie Tucker had to go and break up Gene Tai madge’s baseball nine. Gene will have to play himself now or else lose one of his campaign argu ments. Present indications, how ever, point to the fact that Tal madge is probaoly the manager of the greater part of the nine he was whooping up. —Claxton Enterprise. Sticking to his dry guns, Sena' tor Cameron Morrison of North Carolina declared during the re cent primary campaign: “lam willing to die politically for pro hibition.’’ An hed did —his wet opponent winning by a vote of nearly two tofone. For forcibly kissing a blonde in his office in Berlin, Karl Zecbtem had to pay her 50 marks, while a brunette whom he simi larly saluted was given only 20 marks damages. ELECTION NOTICE.

I did not vote for the cash payment to ex-service men of the balata e due them on their adjusted service certifi cates for the reason that the payment to this one group of our citizens of $2, 400,000,060.00 would cost each man, woman and child in America $20.00 in additonal taxes. There are less than four million people in the United States who pay a Federal In come Tax.

May 25, 1932. Eschol Graham. For Congress To the people of the First Congress ional District of Georgia: I am a candidate for Congress from the First Congressional District of Georgia, subject to the rules of the Democratic primal y to be held Sep tember 14th, 1932. Having been born and reard on the farm, my knowledge of the problems and burdens of our fat mers is first hand and practical rather than theor etical and superficial. 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 supportof legislation which will force an increase iu the pi ice 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.

A Palm Leaf 11 Feet Long and 16 Feet Wide It in known as the Talipat 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. One 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.” ''' '• “Some Punkin!” Over 100 Lbs. in 0 Weight—GVj 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 large 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 product contains an exceptionally high per centage of nitrogen; the growth ele ment for all farm products. O i»S2 ■ » a IM ® I I . .

Here’s a Real Head of Cabbage How happy “Jiggs” would be to see this head of cabbage. Cooked with good corned beef, this one cab bage would make a meal for all "Dinty Moores" friends. The picture of the boy standing beside it gives you a good idea of its enormous size. The photograph from which this drawing was made was taken at Chertsey Agricultural 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 only growing superior products but also getting greater yields than our European neighbors. ( Corn Stalk Grows 21^ Ft. High Mr. C. G.
