SWAT THE FLY.

The season for swatting the fiiei
is here, and one swat now is better
than ten in August. Scientists al
over the world with one accord agree
that as a distributor of disease, as &
sower of epidemic and death, the fly
never has had an equal.
THE great plaques that swept
through Europe in the middle
ages, the monstrOus scourges that
still slay their thousands in China,
India and the fetid regions of the
orient, the galloping diseases that
have devoured their hundreds in
the United States have all been the
work of the fly or some of his cous-
ms among the insectivora.
AS destroyer of mankind the
cold statistics of science prove the
insignificant and harmless looking
little fly is worse than all the arm
les of Alexander, Hannibal, At
tilla, the Hun, julius Caesar and
Napoleon rolled into one. Where
they let out the blood of one the
fly has struck down one hundred.
Not with bludgeons, lyddite
shells or dynamite does General
Fly carry on his warfare against
the world. His weapons are his
legs. His arsenals are refuse
piles. He loads his weapons at his
arsenals and then he fits. And
unless he is stopped by screens,
poison, sticky paper, or the active
fly swatter he makes his way to
the kitchen. the dining table or
the sick room, and there leaves
behind typhoid, consumption, scar
let fever, diptheria, smallpox,
cholera infantum and scores of
other dangerous diseases"
There are scores of ways to swat
the fly. He may be swatted toilsome.
ly and deliberately by hand; he may
be swatted with fly paper, poison
ed or sticky; he may be swatteC
with netting and screens, but the
most effective way of swatting hin
is to go back to the beginning of hi.
campaign and swat him at his owl
arsenals, the refuse piles, the garb
age boxes, and the stagnant pools
Swat him there, and his fangs have
been drawn. The use of kerosene OF
or of chloride of lime kills the egg
and cuts down manifold the numbe

AVIATION FATALITIES.

The death harvest of the aeroplane
is nearing the half hundred mark. 1t
reached AZ when, a few days ago,
Henry Maurice Berteaux, minister of
war in the French government, was
killed by being struck by an aero
plane which had got beyond the con-
troll of the aviator. Most of the vic
tins of mans effort to master aerial
navigation have been skilled avia-
tors, and four of them were Ameri-
cans. The list also includes French
men, Englishmen, Italians, Dutch
men, Germans, Peruvians, Russians,
Hungarians and Spaniards.
This science, or sport, is only
about three years old and the death
roll, therefore, seems a heavy one.
That it is not heavier is due to the
limited number participating in it..
Wen aviation becomes as common
as automobiling the newspapers will
be crowded with accounts of disas-
tiers. Yet, air navigation is sure to
come as a common and approved
method of travel. The sacrifice will
be great, but perhaps the results will
be worth it,
Something of how far the science
of aviation has progressed in the
brief time since the fight of few
hundred feet was acclaimed as a sue
cess is indicated by the feat of Pierre
Vedine the day following the TRACE
dy at Paris. Vedine left the field at
All a. m. Monday, made one stop
80 miles out to fix his motor, and
landed at Angonleme, distance of
279 miles, in 3 hours and 43 min
utes, a speed considerably greater
than a mile minute.

HOT TIMES AHEAD.

Both the prohis and the ants con-
cede that there is going to be a fight
over the liquor question at the com
ing session of the legislature.
The local optionists of the state
are quietly organizing for a cam
paign before the general assem-
bly,, and the liquor men, it is
said, will introduce a local option
bill, while, on the other hand, the
anti-saloon people are preparing to
ask the legislature for the repeal OF
the near beer law, bill to regulate
locker clubs more rigidly and change
the word Intoxicating" to alcohol
ic' in the prohibition act.
1t is said that efforts are now
being made to reconcile the brew
cry and whiskey interests, the for
mer having hitherto been inactive.
A number of Georgia breweries,
however, which at one time had
heavy sales Of barrel beer. claim,
that the present law is hurting
thelr business, while the big bot
thing companies outside the state
are reaping richer harvests than
ever. That warm fight is to be
waged in the legislature all now
admit, and that the lines will be
closely drawn no one will deny,
During the last state campaign i
was quietly whispered around wher,
1t would do the most good that if tn,
election went certain way tn,
liquor interests would have NOTHING
TO lose. 1t went, and now if the,
get their measure through the legis
lature they feel that there will b.
no other obstacle in the way of win
ing the present prohibition law OF
the statutes.
We shall see what we shall see.

From the Nashville Tennesseean:

From the Nashville IenneSSeean:
From Terrell county, Georgia,
comes a brief bit of news that we
devoutly wish may be taken as the
slogan for every county in every
southern state.
mot a bushel of western corn has
been shipped into this county this
year, is the way The Dawson News
tells the tale, and it proudly adds
that this is a condition that has not
existed in many years.
Suppose the same were true OF
the whole south? What an immense
saving it would mean to every COM
munity. There is no part of this sec
ton where all the corn needed for
home consumption cannot be raised,
save perhaps in the lowlands of Lou
isiana And not only can the home
demand be supplied, but surplus
sufficient to feed thousands Of hogs
and cattle can be produced at no adj
ditional cost.
The time is coming when the ex-
ample of Terrell county, Georgia,
will be followed universally over the
south. Then the southern farmer
will wonder how it came about that
he did not do the sensible thing years
before.

THE RISE OLE THE FARMER.

1t is interesting to get among a
group of farmers and hear them tell
about their fine crops and exchange
ideas and methods of feTtilizing and
cultivating. Terrell county has, per-
haps, as many good farmers as any
county in Georgia, and there are
numbers of them who produce nota-
BILE yields of corn, cotton and oats.
Farming is rapidly becoming one
of the professions. We have agri-
cultural schools just as we have our
law and medical schools. 1t is get
ting to be a business as well. Farm
ers have their organizations like 9TH
er manufacturers.
The comic paper does not laugh
at the granger" as frequently as it
once did. The capitalist does not
foreclose mortgages on the farm now.
He often borrows money of it's own
er. And what is vastly more import
ant the entire country looks with
respect upon this new class of citi-
zen, who has decided views on rail-
roads, trusts and in fact on every
subject from destructive farm pests
10 the chautauqua lecturer.
The rise of the farmer into nation
al significance is welcome, especially
in view of the inundation of our
great cities by a mass of immigrants.

DAwsoNs GREATEST NEED.

The organization of live board
of trade is something that ought to
commend itself to every citizen of
Dawson. There is not a man living
here who would not be bene-
flied by movements that would bene-
fit the town. The Valdosta Times
states it strongly and in nut shell
when, in urging the need of more
active board of trade in that city, it
says:
Every advance step the city
takes adds to the value of prop
erty, and therefore helps the prop
erty owner. Every Improvement
adds to the work of the day la
borer, and therefore helps him.
Every improvement helps the
trade of the town, and it therefore
benefits every merchant in the
city.
IF the merchant prospers the
clerk prospers. If the tenant
prospers the landlord prospers in
like proportion. There must be
constant improvement in the COM
munity or there will be a back
ward movement"
What is needed in Dawson more
than anything else is a union of
forces for the benefit of the town
as a whole. There should be an
which would voice the
sentiment of the leading men, and
that sentiment should always be in
he interest of advance movements.
The people of the town need to get
.ogether in earnest and pull for
Kings. 1t would be a force that
would be almost inestimable in it's
'esults.

From the Athens Banner.

During the past year not bushel
of western corn has been shipped in
to Terrell county, Georgia The far
mers of that county have not only
made enough corn for home con-
sumption, but plenty to supply all the
people in the cities and towns of
Terrell county.
That is record of which Terrell
county is justly proud. Barring
those counties in which the larger
cities are located there is not coun-
ty in the state that could not do
what Terrell county has done, if the
farmers get down to business, and
even the, larger cities could be sup
piled by those counties making
large surplus crop of corn.
The south has too long been we'd
ded to the idea of sending to the west
1or large part of the corn consumed
annually in this section. There is
no reason why single bushel of corn
should be shipped into this section.
With careful selection of seed, prop
er preparation and attention to the
soil, improved methods of cultivation
and harvesting the corn crop of the
south can be brought up to figures
that would be astounding.
Year by year the farmers of the
south are doing better and better
work on their farms and steadily the
farm output has been increasing. The
time is coming, and coming rapidly.
too, when the various counties in the
several southern states will duplicate
the record of Terrell county for the
past year.

MORE STRINGENT LAW NEEDED.

From the Dublin Courier-Disoatch
There should be very stringent
law against the destruction of birds.
Even hawks have their uses. A gem
tleman was telling us the other day
of the experiences in PENNSYLVANIA.
A bounty on hawks was paid, and
many thousands were killed. The
rats then took the wheat, oats, bar
ley, rye and other small grain fields
and the supply of chickens did not
increase with the destruction Of the
hawks. Birds were put here for a
good purpose, and they should not
be molested. Particularly should
the pot hunters be put out of bust
ness.

ATLANTA TAKES NOTICE.

A circular entitled "a Few Facts
on Macon's Senseless Capital Associa-
ton Agitation" and containing spite
full and unwarranted filings at the
Central City has been scattered over
the state from Atlanta Such tactics
will not hurt the movement to bring
the state capital within easy reach
of all the people, and will react upon
those who employ them. If Atlanta
hasn't already found it out that city
will yet realize that the campaign to
locate the capital in the central part
of Georgia is not so much a Macon
affair as it is a movement on the
part of the people, who see the wis
dom and justice of it. Ridicule and
misrepresentation of the city that
happens to be so located as to be
the logical site for the states official
headquarters will not deter them in
the least. They are in earnest about
the matter, and are going to make a
winning fight.
