Exhibit at State Fair
Will Keep Products

Editor Mercer: Because of the
very short time given us to secure
products for an exhibit at the
State Fair, we have been unable
to get what I should call a first
class exhibit, and believing any
thing less than a first class exhibit
worse than none, l have determin'
ed to keep the products here at
League headquarters where the
people of the community are invit-
ed to see them. A sight of what
we have will inspire the people to
get busy for an exhibit next year.
And this is the burden of my
story that Ben Hill county must
have not only fine exhibit at the
State Fair next year, but she must
have fair of her own. "But, -"
some one says, 1--WE had fair here
once and it was not a success. +"
True, but that was long time ago
when Fitzgerald was small place.
She is now big enough to have a
good county fair and the people
will come here next year and put
on such an exhibit that this whole
country will be proud of Ben Hill
county. If Douglas can have a
successful fair surely Fitzgerald
can. In any case we can send ex-
cellent exhibit to the State Fair
next year and to do so, we must
begin right now to plant for it. [

put in pet patches of everything

men of Fitzgerald will double the
prizes to every man who has an
exhibit in it. John w. Greer.

County Bonds @. X.

The board of county commissioners publish,
today notice to the effect that the bond election
called for November 3rd has been called Off The
attorneys for the purchasing company who object
ed to certain technicaities have about arrived at
the conclusion that the bonds were regularly voted
There has never been any disposition to re-
ject the bonds except on the theory, that the cleo
ton was not regular. They want the bonds at the
nice premium bid for them, but they we've afraid
of a decision of the Supreme court that hand
ed down about the time or soon after bond
election.
The Enterprise has deplored the delay but
really we are not greatly hindered The work
will go on just the same The court house will
be built and the jail and the public road work will
be pushed with vigor aud is already making splen-
did progress.
The county commissioners called the election
On November 3rd to save the expense and hazard
of an election if it should become necessary later
on and after the last of the elections for the year
should be passed. 1t would be much more expen-
pensive for the people to turn out to the polls for
che purpose of voting bonds than it would have
80 to vote on the day of general election. 1t

Two Great Dangers To Eye
Sight.

In the November issue of the
WOman's Home Companion, DR..
Woods Hutchinson raises his lance
against the boyle of civilization
making the race blind.
"The dangers to which the mod
ern eye is exposed fall into great
classes-disease, and overuse from
near work. Here another great
consoling fact faces us, and that is
that while overwork and conse-
quent eye strain are by far the
commonest troubles that befall the
modern eye, discomfort and ineffi-
cheney are as far as they go in nine
ty-nine cases out Of one hundred.
NEVER YET WAS AN Eye LOST
SOLELY FROM EYE STRAIN. 1t is
d fact that ninety-nine and nine
tenths per cent of all blindness is
due to disease, and not to over
work.
"More significant yet, seven
tenths of the diseases which pro-
duce blindness are the acute infect
ions, against which civilization
wages an unceasiug and victorious
conflict.
Smallpox it has PRACTICABLE over
come, thanks to vaccination. The
others hold their own as FLINDERS
on account of our highly intelli-
gent amblyopia in DECLINING to reco
gnize them officially, or mention
them in public. Just SO long as
we continue to considerit immod-
est and impro per to discuss these
bliehts, so long they will continue
to put out the eyes of little child
rem by the thousands.
THE DANGER OF BLINDNESS Is d.
MINISHINd.
"No known disease which eaus
es blindness is increasing under
civilization. So that when we do
finally come to our sense and fight
all diseases alike, as we surely
viii, We have good right to conf
IDENTIFY expect that blindness will
be practically abolished, Gr Teduc
ed to less than five per cent of its
present frequency.
HEyen the risk of blindness
from accidental causes, such as
wounds, blows, scaldings and
burnings, is very much less than
it was before, and still diminishing
on account of the enormously in
creased power of curing wounds of
the eye given us by antisepsis and
asepSir. Where ten eyes we're
lost by ounds becoming infected
less than one eye suppurates now.n

The Prohibition Law Again.
From the Dublin Times.

from the Dublin Times
The Fitzgerald Enterprise does n OF like the
way some of the daily papers have been throw
ing cold water on the prohibition law. 1t says
the esprit of opposition to the law as it exists
in Georgia. manifest in the columns of several
of the important dailies of the state, is deplor-
able. Every opportunity is embraced TO Gre
ate prejudice, and often a false impression,
anent the operation of the prohibition law"
The fact is, brother, none of the daily pa
pers, with the exception of the Atlanta Geor-
gian was foolish about the enactments of
prohibition law for the state. Those whichdid
not openly flight the bill when it was pending
in the Legislature had nothing to say in its
behalf.
The prohibition law is not the success which
it's advocates might wish That slug called
''near beer' offered loophole through which
a great d eal of genuine lager beer and even
stronger ardents have slipped In the towns
that were dry in 1907 it is easier to get bot
tie of beer or a drink of whiskey than it ever
was But, OH the other, it is not quite so con-
venient to get what you want in the formerly
wet towus as it was before prohibition law
went into effort.
The thing for us to do is to use our earnest
efforts to have the prohibition law enforced,
not only in Dublin, but also in Atlanta and
Savannah. 1t seems to be useless to hope for
a national law which will prevent the ship
ment of liquor by express from wet to dry
states but we can at least conine the con-
sumption to those who are willing to order it
that way at the additional expense Thous-
ands of dallarS are sent out of the state every
month for the express packages, but if there is
less whiskey drinking in Georgia by reason of
the operation of the prohibition law, we should
be willing to submit to little extra expense
and suffer the loss of few thousand dollars
sent to other states. $780,

THE COST OF BUILDING
A CREAMERY.

The Enterprise received Thurs
day from Washington, D. G. hure-
au of Animal Industry Dairy Divi-
sion the following information that
will be of great benefit to our read
ers who are interested in the new
creamery now in course of con-
struction here.
The information was furnished
by the department, no doubt, on
the information that went out thro
these columns last Saturday.
That is prompt work for the de-
partment. We regret that we
could not publish this in Thurs
days issue.
Washington, D. G. Oct. 20 1908
During the past few years there
have been built in the United States
several thousand creameries, many
Of which have been successful from
the start, while others have failed
after a few months operation, and
some were never even started.
An investigation of the creamery
business in several States by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture has shown that the cause
of many of the failures was due
to lack Insufficient number of COWS,
which should not be less than 400,
and that others failed because OF
Improper organization, in the case
of cooperative creameries, and ex-
cessive cost of building and equip
ment, Many creameries have cost
about twice their actual worth, and
were not of the type suited to the
locality in which they were built.
The cost of a building about rs
by 48 feet will vary from $500, to
81, 400, dependent upon the local
ity, the construction, and the cost
of material and labor. Such a
building usually consist of main
work room, engine and boiler room
(including space for refrigerator,
machine), coal room, refrigerator,
store1oom, and office.
Machinery for a handseparatol
plant, consisting of 15 horsepower
boiler, 10 horsepower engine com
bination churn with a capacity o.
900 pounds of butter, and other ne
cessary apparatus, will cost approx
imately 81, 100. Machinery for g
whole milk plant will cost about
I$1, $50. This equipment will han
die from 1000 to 1000 pounds Of
butter per day. If a refrigerator
machine is included the cost will
be from 5000 to 81, 900 more.
The total cost of a creamery
would therefore vary from $4,000
for a simple hand-separator plant
without artificial refrigeration,
where labor and material are cheap,
to 81, $50 for a whole-milk plant
including artificial refrigeration
and a higher cost of labor and
material.
The Department Of Agriculture
is prepared to furnish information
for the proper organization OF
creameries and cheese factories, and
upon request will supply plan OF
