The Ludowici Celadon Co.,
which has large factory located
at Ludowici, Liberty county, is
one of the many industries that
has developed that section of the
state. For a number of years the
manufactures had wanted to
locate a branch factory somewhere
in the south, but could not find a
clay deposit suitable for the
product they manufactured. Acct
IDENTIFY they heard of the clay beds
along the Altamaha river in Lib
erty county and sent for samples.
Upon testing the clay they dis
covered that it was what they
needed and forthwith purchased a
large tract of land there and built
a factory. .
The factory and the Offices and
Headquarters are all model ones.
The ground around them have
been beautifully laid out and are
kept up in fashion worthy of a
great city park.
Even the negro quarters, which
are furnished for employees, are
built on 81 carefully laid architect
ural plan and the tenants are
compelled to keep them in a clean,
sanitary condition.
The company turns out many
cnrlnldS u month of roofing tile
from it's Ludowici plant having
taxed that branch with making
the tile to ill the contract which
they have with the government
for the Panama Canal buildings.
The tile is made in many artis
tic patterns Is practically indis
tructahle and impervious to eli
matte charges. At Ludowici near
ly every building is covered with
this tileing and the effect is most
pleasing to the eye, besides adding
tone of durability.

the biggest crop OF pears this year

He has the finest orchard In the val

year his orchard netted him $500 an
acre. The love and care Of his or
chard is the keynote of Captain
Shawhan's success. From May UNI
til last week Mr.. Shawhan and two
men have been continually at work
cutting out blight. The Rartells were
the only variety attacked by blight
this year. He has the Anjow, Clair
gean, Flemish Beauty and Barttletts.
He will ship four or five carloads Of
pears this year of of Is acres and on
four of these Is, apple trees alter
nate with pear trees. Last year he
netted $500 an acre for his Barttletts.
He says If he were going to plant an
other orchard 1t would be d pear or

Johnathan apples. They are planted
90 trees to the acre and last year
ne packed eleven boxes to the tree
making $50 boxes to the acre. The
1rst ones shipped to Chicago brought
$500 a box. The entire crop aver
aged more than $3.50 d box which
amounts to the sum Of $3.50 an acre

between Japan and the United States.
II would commercially bankrupt the
Ky Va. N
empire to have war with this nation. 4
Japan depends upon the United
States for the sale of its silks, rice
and tea the three greatest exports
OF the empire. On the other hand the
Japanese are big importers Of cotton |
and other materials from this coun-
try. So war would strike at the vitals
Of the exporters and importers and |
manufacturers. There is not the least
talk Of war over there" continued
Mr.. Huebt "The only time we saw
anything about 1t was when we read
It In the yellow English papers"

FLY TIME RULES

The Merchants Association of Ne,
York is sending out set of fly tim
rules that are worthy of attention
They are as follows:
| Keep the flies away from the sick
especially those i'll with contagiou
diseases. Kill every fly that stray
into the sick room. His body is GOV
cred with disease germs.
Do not allow decaying material O
any sort to accumulate on or nea
your premises.
: All refuse which tends in any way
to fermentation, such as bedding
straw; paper, waste and vegetable
matter should be disposed of or GOV.
cred with lime or kerosene oil.
Screen all food.
Keep all receptacles for garbage
carefully covered and the cans sprin-
killed. with kerosene or lime.
Keep all stable manure in vault
or pit, screened or sprinkled with
lime, oil, or other cheap prepare
ton.
See that your sewerage system is
in good order; that it does not leak,
is up to date and not exposed to flies.
Pour kerosene into the drains.
Cover food after a meal; burn or
bury all table refuse.
Screen all food for sale.
Screen all windows and doors, es-
pecially the kitchen and dining room.
Burn pyrethrum powder in the
house to kill the flies.
Don't forget if you see flies, their
breeding place is in nearby filth.
1t may be behind the door, under
the table or in the cuspidor.
If there is not dirt and filth there
will be no flies.
Flies are by no menas necessary
evil; neither are they the merely
trifling annoyance that many people
believe them to be. Scientific inves-
tigation has proved what common
sense and moment of reflection
will make apparent to anyone, that
flies carry disease germs and all
manner of foulness Measures for
their repression cannot be too thor
ough, and we know OF none more
thorough than those recommended
tons in the above rules.
