NEWS COUPONS ARE BEING
USED LIKE LEGAL TENDER
Follow Up the Plan and Give Away
Valuable Prizes to the Persons for Whom They
Redeem the Most Coupons In Next Six Months

The coupon proposition which
the News has recently launched, is
making good. The plan is gaining
in favor every day and already the
News advertisements are being
used as legal tender. Both adver-
tisers and Subscribers have declar.
ed that the plan is a good one and
everybody is taking to it as the
best proposition they know OF.
That the proposition is a good
one is proven by the fact that the
News is in receipt OF letters from
other papers who courteously ask
the permission OF the News to
launch the same kind OF a system
IN their own towns. These papers
say they can see the coupon plan
is a good one and that it is a great
benefit TO the subscribers and the
advertisers. The coupon plan is
original with the News and was
thought ont and prompted by the
interests that the News has in those
VINO support it.
The News coupon proposition is
Just a simple one where by News
subscribers are given five percent
Oft on all their cash purchases made
from any OF the merchants whose
names appear in the list below.
The merchants are benefited and
so is the News. This is not a plan
to give anything away. 1t is JUS,
an economical idea which was orig.
mated by the News Tor the purpose
OF helping those who help the
/ News.
Several OF the merchants have
gone a step further than the News
at first planned and they are utiliz.
ing the coupon plan and making i,
more popular. Following are the
separate propositions made by the
various merchants who have adopt.
cd the coupon system.

AN OCCASION OF INTEREST
TONIGHT AT THE THEATRE.
"St. Elmo. VIII Be the Attraction at
Opera House.

An Americas audience will, for the
first time, view tonight the drama
tized version of Mrs. Augusta Evans
Wilson's novel, st. Elmo, and cul-
tured and critical assemblage will
thus fill the theatre. 1t will of neces-
sity be judged by public keen to de-
tect any false note in word or in sit
uation, for the dramatist has set him
self the task of translating to the
stage the work of an author whose
life was spent in the South, whose
sympathies were Southern and whose
entire being was so saturated with
the life of the country south of Ma
son and Dixon's line that inevitably
her work breathed of the Southland
with that naturalness which rings
true and made its strong appeal which
resulted in lasting fame. On behalf
of the management it may be said
that special scenery has been built
for the production and a metropolitan
cast has been selected for its inter-
probation and they seem to be MAX
ing an honest effort to insure a fin
ished performance. The result will
be viewed with curiosity in this and
in other Southern cities, for critical
taste as more than one producing
manager has occasion to know to his
sorrow, is as highly developed in the
South as in the more important cities
of the North.

HUDSON WILL TOUR GEORGIA
IN INTEREST OF FARMERS,
Together With EntOmOIOgist WOrsham
aud President Lee.

Beginning October Is, Commissioner
of Agriculture T. G. Hudson, accom-
panied by E. L. Worsham, state ento-
mologist, and President J. L. Lee of
the Farmers Union, will make a tour
of the state lasting two months, or
until December Is, visiting forty-four
counties and giving lectures and prac-
tical demonstrations in connection
with the warfare which the depart
ment proposes to wage against the
cotton disease known as black root.
1t will be recalled that the legisla-
ture appropriated at it's last session
$4,000 for the purpose of enabling the
department of entomology to make
this fight against a disease which has
been playing havoc with cotton in
many sections of the state
In addition to the foregoing the ex-
periments which the department has
been conducting will be continued, and
arrangements will be made for more
extensive distribution of the particu-
lar varieties of seed which have been
found to resist this disease.
The counties to be visited are those
in which the disease has made it's ap-
pearance. In the order in which the
visits will be made they are as fol-
lows:
Dodge, Telfair, Jeff Davis, Appling,
Pierce, Ware, Lawndes, Brooks, Ber-
rien, Tiff, Ben Hill, Wilcox, Pulaski,
Laurens. Montgomery, Toombs, Eman-

THE WINDSOR TO SELL
AT AN EARY DATE
Several Bids for Property
Awaiting.

Sealed bids for the purchase of the
Hotel Windsor property will be open
ed here on Monday next by the re-
ceiyer, Mr.. Crawford Wheatley, and
the highest and best bid referred to
Judge z. A. Littlejohn of the superior
court for confirmation. 1t seems quite
certain now that the property will be
disposed of at private sale, as doubt
less several bids will be fled, one of
which will probably be accepted. A
report current is to the effect that
one of these bids will be at a figure
between $4,000 and $4,000 cash,
while another bid will be in the neigh
borhood of 100000, half cash and half
in deferred payments. There may be
other bids as WE'LL and even more ia
vorable, as it is intimated generally
that the hotel will thus be sold. The
price accepted will liquidate all in
debtedness against the property, and
perhaps leave a few dollars per share
for the stockholders.

COTTON PLANTS BEING
PICKED VERY CLEAN
Reports Show Thorough.
ness in Gathering.

The cotton fields of Sumter county
that have been picked have been
gone over so thoroughly that it would
not be possible to get any more cot
ton from them if a fine tooth comb
were used.
Never before in many years, if ever,
has there apparently been such care
exercised in the picking to get every
bit of the cotton from every patch.
Many fields that have been picked
look somewhat like they do in the
early part of the year, like lot of
old weeds, with nothing to indicate
to the unskilled eye of the traveller
that the plants growing in them have
ever borne cotton.
Il have been over considerable
country of late" said visitor yes
terday, land everywhere 1 have noted
the fact that there is nothing more to
come from the fields over which the
pickers have gone. They have made
aclean job of it while they have been
at work. Thirteen cents a pound has
induced them to take every shred of
cotton they could get their fingers on.
And there isn't any reason to believe
that any top crop is coming along.
This accounts for the heavy receipts
and indicates that there will be a
sudden slump in receipts.
"At the rate cotton is pouring in
Americas will have received nearly
If not quite 10000 bales by Novem-
ber," he continued after that the
receipts will peter out. 1t is case
of rapid picking and thorough pick
ing and forced marketing induced
by the fine values of the staple. 1t
is an open question as to whether
Americas will not receive almost as
much cotton as usual. OF course
there is talk of a short crop on this
plantation and short crop on that
one, but there are still good many
thousands of bales out in the fields
and this market is pretty sure to sus-
tain it's past record as to local re-
ceipts."

Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers Of health and strength;
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles of the men stand out like
cords.
AS a matter of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker 0ats--that would win in any
contest with the old Roman or Greek
champions. 16
It's matter of food. The finest food
for making strength of bone, muscle
and nerve is fine oatmeal. Quaker
Oats is the best because 1t is pure, no
husks or stems or black specks. Farm
ers' wives are finding that by feeding
the farm hands plentifully on Quaker
Oats they get the best results in work
and economy. If you live in a hot eli
mate buy Quaker Oats in Theoretically
sealed tins. 1t keeps sweet and fresh.

THE PRICE OF SEED BULGES
THE PRICE OF LARI
Higher Price of Cotton Seed Means
Higher Lard.

An Americas merchant attributes
the recent upheaval in the price OF
lard and cottolene to the rapid in
crease in the price of cotton seed,
which are higher this fall than ever
before known in the history of cotton
production. Lard" made of cotton
seed oil is far preferable among
many housekeepers to hog lard, owing
to its purity, but just now hog lard
and cottonseed lard are practically
together in price, owing to the big
demand for cotton seed. Here in
Sumter county, as elsewhere, bushel
of cotton seed is worth more than a
bushel of corn in worth in the west.
An acre of Sumter county land will
produce thirty bushels cotton seed,
worth probably $40 to $12, to say
of the bale of lint, worth SOS
more, at present high prices.

WATSON'S TRIBUTE

Georgia Should Be Crate
tuI TO Americas Author.

In the current issue of the Jeffer-
sonian, Tom Watson's monthly maya
zine, appears the following tribute to
Hon. j. E. D. Ships recent publica-
ton, THE Life and Times of William
H. Crawford
Every public-spirited citizen of the
Empire state should feel grateful to
the author for bringing out this ex-
tremely interesting volume. 1t rep
resents years of research. the examin-
alton of ancient records, the study of
many out-of-print books, the sitting
or many a mouldy private paper and
letter.
The average historian of the United
states deserves killing on general
principles, but he is peculiarly mean
when dealing with such characters as
Crawford. Not finding anything much
about him in the histories" which
precede his own, the said average Gull
prit, indolent and no glutton for new
facts, classes Crawford as a sort of
ancient whose eminence must have
been due to "nigger luck"

Yet the most casual examination Of

Yet the most casual examination of
Benton's Arrangement and of the Con-
gressional report of debates, would
convince any one that in soundness,
strength, breadth and depth of mind,
Crawford was head and shoulders
above Benton, more than a match for
Clay and but a trifle inferior to Web
ster, if unequal to him at all. In
fact, Crawford was what we call
solid man, with a great big natural
capacity that fitted him for almost any
task requiring good judgment, sagac-
ity, power of initiative, and resource
full in advocacy. When he argued
great question, he exhausted it. In
the debate on the National Bank, he
made Giles of Virginia seem sur
face man, and Henry Clay a mere bril-
liant declaimer.
We are earnestly thankful to Mr.
Shipp for his valuable contribution to-
American history, and we hope that
the state-pride of Georgia will start
many a three-dollar cheque to Ameri-
Gus.
The copy which come to the Jeffer-
sonian was accompanied by a note
that reminds us of old legislative
comradeship in 1923:
Americas, Ga, Sept. 2, 1909.
