A large number were present at the
Mothers meeting last Friday at the
home of Mrs. ]. F. Stout. The care
fully prepared program was carried
out under the leadership of Mrs.
Tracy, and the discussion brought
out many helpful thoughts and duties
of mothers. The Union entered upon
a point contest under the leadership
of Mrs. McNair and Mrs. Turner.
These points cover all the principal
work of the union and the contest will
be continued throughout the year,
lwhen the winning side will be given a
IbanQuer.

work she needs but to think of our
sainted leader, Frances Willard, and
her enthusiasm will come with a

her, neither regarding God above or
his children below. She believed the
crusade was a joint attack of all the
spiritual forces in Heaven and on the
earth against the devil and all his
works. She believed the water wagon
was the coming band wagon. She

ANOTHER LETTER FROM
TEXAS FRIEND.

Dear Sir: I herewith send you
$1.00 for Watson's Magazine one
year, beginning with January 21st,
1912.
Be sure to send me January and
February numbers, as they will con-
meet me on to last year. In many
respects I think yours the finest
Magazine published. I like the
way you go after the Roman Catho-
lie Hierarchy, the Socialists and the
trusts. Then your high regard for
the old Confederate, your tender
words to him and the accounts you
give Of his heroic deeds stirs my
heart as nothing else can. Isn't it
most gratifying to you that the peo-
pie of these States, especially in the
South, are adopting the Initiative,
Referendum and Recall? Your
party went down in defeat, but it
must be pleasing to you that it's prin-
ciples still live and are live issues
today. Success to you and yours.
Yours truly,
r. LINDSEY.

AM GIVING SOME OF MY CRANKY
VIEWS ON WOMAN'S SUI
FRAGE, IN THIS ISSUE.

Dear Tom: Once in long while,
l differ with you. l notice you
object to women voting. Why are
they not competent to vote as much
SO as men? They surely bear the
burden of bad laws as much as any
one; then the very life of men that
make our laws places this burden on
the mothers, wives and daughters. II
the woman is competent to keep
house and train and raise the child,
she should have the right to vote,
and if it will make matters better,
I say let us have law that will
allow them to vote, for God knows
we need a change, and I am in for
it.
am opposed to Rome in any form,
and 1 hope that God will give you
the power of a two-edge sword to
press the battle hard against the
Roman Catholic so-called worship.
I don't believe there is one bit of
Christ in it. I admire your boldness
in the stand for right and wrong. I
am opposed to foreign missions. We
need home mission and need it bad;
our home preachers need more
AGdES 10 pISSS ChS use ACI 10
get busy in our home country and
clear up, then we will be in a posi-
ton to face the battlefield for Christ
in the faraway lands, for we are told
that whose turneth deaf ear unto
the cry of the poor shall also cry and
not be heard; also he that provideth
not, especially for those of his own
household has already denied the
faith and is worse than an Infidel.
We have the cry Of the poor and
plenty Of it. and the failure to pro-
vide, has been much. The cry of
the poor and distressed is great, and
their voice reaches up to heaven,
but we, as the prodigal son, have
wasted our substance in a foreign
country.
Tom, may God help you, and make
you a mighty power in America.
Your friend,
DR.. A. T. MCLAUGHLIN.

SOUTHERN FARMERS MUST
PLANT MORE CORN.

Dear Sir: Having some time since
placed with you advertisement of the
Whatley red cob prolific corn, the
the varities tested at the State
College of Agriculture, Athens, Ca,
I am convinced that there is no bet
ter medium through which to reach
the farmers of the South than
through The Jeffersonian.
Inquiries and orders have been
coming in from almost every South
ern state; we are fearful our supply
Of seed will be exhausted before
the season is over. 1t is now the
last week in February and no pros
pect in northeast Georgia for time
to prepare to plant corn in March.
Much of it will be planted in May.
We Southern farmers must make our
farms self-sustaining We must stop
sending millions of dollars annually
out of the South for something to
eat and feed on. We can grow more
corn on an acre in Georgia than can
be grown on an acre in the West.
Why will reasonable men continue
longer such a suicidal course? South
ern civilization is builded upon
agriculture. Our hope for the
future is in the intelligence and pro-
gressiveness of the Southern agricul-
turist. 1t is true in the years gone
by we received little recognition or
practical encouragement; it was
once said, "any fool could farm"
but a change is coming.
The merchant, the banker, the
teacher, all are learning that, upon
the prosperity and success in the far
mer depends the prosperity and sue
cess of our Southland.
Many inquiries come, asking: is
Whatley's red cob corn a late or
early variety? A hard, flinty, or soft
corn? How close to plant? How,
and when to fertilize, etc. We
could not possibly answer all the
inquiries personally, and take this
means to answer part of them in this
issue and in subsequent issues.
1t is neither late nor early
medium.
1t is neither hard flint nor soft
corn.
1t is the deepest grained prolific
corn we know.
AS to distance on medium uplands
we would plant in rows four feet
apart. One grain in place, about
IA to 18 inches in row. AS to fer
tiliZers, we would use 1925 by
mixing 200 pounds. 16 per cent acid
