BIG INDUSTRY NEAR AMER1CUs.
FIGURING Mills That Do a Large
Business.

An enterprise near Americas deserv.
ing of special mention is the large
Touring mills of the Messrs. Croxton
at Friendship, twelve miles west of
Americas, which is now in full opera
ton and has been for many weeks.
Postmaster Smith returned yesterday
from a business trip out there, and
talks Interestingly of the thrift and en-
terprise in that vicinity.
And particularly of the big Croxton
Touring mills.
Mr.. Smith told the Times Recorder
that he counted fourteen large farm
wagons, every one loaded with wheat,
which was brought to be made into
-four. These wagons came from six
surrounding counties.
Sumter, Macon, Sohley, Marion,
Webster and Chattahoochee.
The mills, Mr.. Smith says, are
splendidIy equipped and turn out a
beautiful sample of -four. The scene
depicted yesterday is an every day one,
as the fame of Croxton's Mills and
Croxton's -four is general here.
The Times Recorder is glad to know
of such an enterprise in Sumter coun-
ty, and only wishes that we had more
Oroxtons here.

.SOLONS TO NAME A
HEAD TO THAT BODY
Mayor Fielder and Mayor Protein
Glover From City.
CHAIRMAN MUST BE SELECTED.
To Preside at Meetings During Alb
sence of Oficials-Meeting to This
End Will Be Held Today-Other
Affairs of Municipality.

For few days Americus is to be
without a chief executive, or official
head, save chairman to be chosen to-
day by members of the City Council,
who will act in that capacity at regu-
lar meetings and discharge other du-
ties IN his jurisdiction.
The absence from the city for a few
days of Mayor Fielder and Mayor Pro-
tenn Glover makes the naming of chair
man necessary.
Mayor Fielder is at White Springs,
Fla. for two weeks for his health.
Mayor Protein Glover, with his family,
leaves today for North Georgia, to be
absent for several days.
Hence the necessity for electing a
temporary chairman.
A meeting for this purpose was
called yesterday morning, but an act
ing quorum not being present the
matter went over until today. No
important business Is likely to come
up, but as precautionary measure it
was deemed best to thus elect chair
man.
The collection of taxes was lnfor-
mally discussed among the members
present, and in the opinion of some
the returns are far short.
In other words, property is given in
under it's true value.
One instance was cited where a stock
of goods was returned for taxation at
less than one fourth of its value, as
stated by one of the aldermen, while
another large stock was returned at
about 80 per cent.
It is going to require fine ability to
keep the municipal machinery moving
with the present assessed tax rate,
and every dollar due the city will be
needed badly. The attention of the
Board of Assessors will doubtless be
called to the two instances cited here.
The present tax rate is ST.. 25 per 300.
1t may be higher next time,

A YOUNG LADY's LIFE SAVED.
At Panama, Colombia, by Chamber

DR.. Chas. Fl. Utter, prominent
physician, of Panama, Columbia, in 3
recent letter states; ''Last March I
had as patient a young lady sixteen
years of age, who had very bad attack
of dysenterY. Everything prescribed
for her proved Intellectual and she was
growing worse every hour. Her par
ents were sure she would die. She had
become so weak that she could not
turn over in bed. What to do at this
critical moment was study for me,
but I thought of Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and as
last resort prescribed it. The most
wonderful result was effected. Within
eight hours she was feeling much bet

Why could not a large Touring mill
be operated in Americas. Our farmers

tack of fever.
Recently an Americus firm shipped

The heat yesterday was not as severe
as on the day before. Lowering

duced the temperature.
There was some improvement yes
terday in the condition of Miss Hattie
Tondee, and stronger hopes for her

A statement need not be expected

A party of eight people from Ameri-
