Greet Farm Train

BY w. II. WATERS, JR
BAINBRIDGE, Ga. Feb. 1.-THE farm
ers OF Decatur county showed such cor
dial and intelligent interest In the edu-
cational train at Bainbridge Thursday
morning, that they unconsciously swapped
more for their course at the college-on-
wheels than thew knew they were giving.
They snapped encouragement, and gave
II so naturally that they themselves did
not know they were enthusing the work
ers aboard the train to even greater eff
fort and were sending them away singing
the praises of Decatur county's present
and the prophecies OF it's future.
Three years ago the first educational
train from the State college came to
Bainbridge. II was met by fair crowd.
No deep interest was shown. Indifference
prevailed. with a little actual antagonIsm
mixed I'm it, But on Thursday things
had changed completely. Farmers from
every part fthe county, with some
among them from Jackson and Gadsen
county, Florida. were there waiting when
the train came In. II was the first early
morning stop that the train had made.
which was every bit as good as IL might
have been later in the day. The train
came over from Thomasville, where II
had spent the night, arriving here at 8
o'clock. Before IL left at IL o'clock some
1000 bona fide farmers had gone through
the train and gathered bulletins and 9TH
er information. Three years ago. when
the train stopped here at noon, everybody
was accommodated in two day coaches.
Thirty-five automobiles were counted, all
parked within a stones throw of the
train. A nearby grove was crowded with
horses and mule conveyances. all In from
the country. Many others had ben left In
wagon yards uptown. The whole coun-
tryside in short came In to meet the
educational train in the early morning. II
showed nothing short OF a revolution in
sentiment.
Farmers in the crowd asked questions OF
the lecturers. One man wanted to know
If velvet beans will not do as we'll. for
leguminous crops to put nitrogen back In
the SOIL as cowpeas? He was told they
would probably do better in Decatur
county. Another wanted to know how
much IT had cost the state college to pro-
duce some of the wonderful intensive
crops they have made. DR.. Souie replied
that the crop OF 2 IL bales of cotton per
acre was produced at a net profit, all
costs deducted. OF $le0 per acre. Other
questions were asked and answered dur
in gthe general lectures, and the experts
Ia the exhibit coaches were kept busy
keeping the crowds there informed dur
ing more than two hours.
Five hundred school children from the
cambridge schools under charge Of Sup
erintendent James A. Caldwell and Prin-
cipal c. b. Quillian and the teachers. saw
the exhibits An almost equal number of
children from the ~ schools of the county
and many OF the county teachers we're
shown through the exhibits by J. s.
Bradweil, who has been county school
ascommissioner for Is years.

and have always had trouble with 1t
till got your Appliance. 1t is very
easy to wear, fits neat and snug, and
Y not in the way at any time, day or
night. In fact at times / did not know
1 had 1t on; 1t just adapted itself to
the shape OF the body and seemed to be
a part of the body. as it chung to the
spot, no matter what position / was in.
It would be a veritable God-send to
the unfortunate who suffer from rup-
ture il all could procure the Brooks
Rupture Appliance and wear It, They
would certainly never regret it.
My rupture Is now all healed up and
nothing ever did it but your Appliance.
Whenever the opportunity presents it
self 1 will say a good word for your
Appliance, and also the honorable way
In which you deal with ruptured peo-
pie. 1t Is a pleasure to recommend a
good thing among your friends or
strangers. am, 49,

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send For BrooAs
Rupture Appliance.

/. 1t is absolutely the only Appliance
of the kind on the market today, and in
it are embodied the principles That
inventors have sought after for years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the r,Ip-
ture cannot be thrown out Of position.
s. Being an air cushion of soft rib
Der it clings closely to the body. ret
never blis4ers or causes Irritation.
Unlike the ordinary so-called pssis,
used in other trusses. 1t is not cunbar-
some or ungainly.
5. 1t is small. soft and pliable, and
positively cannot be detected through the
clothing.
g. The soft. pIiable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleas-
ant sensation of wearing a harness.
Z There is nothing about it to aset
foul. and when it becomes soiled il
can be washed without injuring It In
the least.
8. There are no metal springs in the
Appliance to torture one by cutting ana
bruising the flesh.
2. All. the material of which the Ap-
pliances are made Is of q z very best
that money can buy. making it a DIR
able and safe Appliance to wear.
10 MY reputation for honesty and fair
dealing is so thoroughly established by
an experience of over thirty years OF
dealing with the public, and my prices
are so reasonable, my terms so faars
that there certainly should be no hasi-
fancy in sending free coupon today

ALBANY, Ca, Feb. IA hundred or
more of Dougherty county's best farmers

Moreover, this was the early morning

the Albany audience was keenly inter-
egted and attentive and was full Of APP

of that well revolutionized the possibili-
