Do you ike meat that you eat, clean
and wholesome? If you do, why not
buy it where they are prepared to
handle 1t right, where it Is handled in
a clean and sanitary way? 1 claim and
am able to prove that 1 ave the only
first class outfit for handling meat in
the city. Why buy meat out OF those
old sloppy ice boxes when ft costs no
more when it is handled right and by
one that knows howe? All / ask is a
trial and l will prove what l say is
true. 1 do not run my market with

Found He Was Not a Citizen After
Voting For Fifty-Two Years

Notwithstanding he has served on
the juries of Burke county and voted
and taken an active part in affairs
in the county Mr.. Louis Augustien
learned last week that he was not a
citizen of the United States.
Mr.. Augustien came to America
when a boy II years old. He fought
through the civil war, and has a con-
federate cross of honor He served
in the Army of Northern Virginia in
Georgia regiment. He has never
applied for naturalization papers be-
cause people told him that as he
came to this country when only a
boy he would not have to be natural
lied
He never paid any attention to the
matter until recently when he took
notion mat he would like to visit
his old home in Tuscana, Italy, and
found that in order to return to this

Nigh Beer Is Again Quenching the
Cuthbert Thirst.

The Leader reports that the nj
beer question has been settled in
Cuthbert.
After several animated speeches
pro and con the city council by a
vote of three to two rescinded it's
former action increasing the license
for the sale of the suds from $50 to
$4,000. The tax was again placed
at $50.
In order to avoid technicalities P.
E. Chandler & Co. again applied for
near beer license, which was granted.
The Leader says If any attended
the council meeting expecting to hear
heated discussion and lively verbal
scrapping they were probably disap-
pointed. While a good deal of gin
ger was injected into some of the
talks early in the meeting the dove
of peace was in evidence before the
close.

UNCLE SAM EXPLODES MYTH
THE GOVERNMENTS EXPERT
MENTS WITH MOONS IN
FLUENCE ON CROPS.

After exhaustive experiments in
potato planting the United States de-
partment of agriculture has to say
that, in season, one time is as good
as another to put potatoes in the
ground.
Almost everyone, even if he were
not reared in the country. has heard
of the idea of the moon. The field
workers Of the department of agri-
culture have been investigating the
matter, and have found that rs per
cent. of the farmers of this alleged
enlightened country put in their
crops and do a good many other
things about the farm governed
solely by the moons phases. Many
farmers will tell you that if you
plant potatoes in the dark Of the
moon they will run to tubers, and
II in the light of the moon they will
run to tops, and crops are planted
accordingly.
There is usually a basis in fact
for any superstitiOn and the moon
superstition is so deeply rooted that
number Of experts from the DEPART
ment OF agriculture, while going up
and down and across the land, have
made it their business to study the
question, and see whether there
might not be germ of truth, or at
least, some reason for the general
belief that the moons phases have
an effect on animal and vegetable
life. They have concluded after pa
ttent investigation that the moon
myth Is one of the comparatively
few myths that date back to pure
saVagery, and has absolutely not an
atom of scientific foundation on
which to stand. The agricultural ex-
pertinent stations all over the conn
try have been defying this supersti-
ton for several years and raising
Just as good crops when the moon
was one way as when it was the
other. Therefore, once and for all
IL IS conclusively decided that there
is nothing to the theory that pota-
toes should be planted in the dark
of the moon.
All of this may not seem very
serious investigation for a great gov
ernment to undertake, but the work
nevertheless has been interesting to
the scientists, and if they have suc-
ceeded IN weaving few from the old
about planting pota-
toes they have been well paid for
their work.

SPRING Is LATE IN CANADA.
On Account of Snow and Cold Little
Planting Has Been Done.

Crop prospects in the Canadian
northwest are not good. There was
some fine weather early in April, and
a little seeding was done, but cold
weather and snow have marked the
last several weeks, and the amount
of seeding done is only 10 to 80 per
cent. of what it should be. Wheat
sOWn after May 7th cannot mature
before the middle of September,
which leaves it exposed to early fall
frosts. There is but little hope of
even a fair crop in western Canada
this year.

country he would have to secure pa
pers showing him to be a citizen. 1t
was while investigating this that he
learned he was not citizen of the
United States.
Although he is 60 years old Mr..
Augustien is very active, and does
not look to be over 40 years of age.
1t is believed that the matter can
be arranged.
Mr.. Augustien has been a resi-
dent of Burke county for So years.
Mr.. Reynolds will take the matter
up at once in an effort to secure a
passport from the government for
Mr.. Augustien. Mr.. Augustien only
wishes to remain in Italy three
months.
