The women of Colorado seem to be
progressing toward the level of the
men voters, says the New York Trib-
une. Through their central organi-
cation in Denver the president of the
United States has been informed that
as the organization has rendered
sterling service in the battles of the
Colorado democracy its members are
entitled to something more than
cIerkships, and that the women
should have more digniied' positions
in the federal service"
The Organization" referred to is
the Jane Jefferson Club, and is polit-
zeal in character and democratic in
affiliation. 1t is, perhaps, worth re-
marking that the notification TO the
president was sent by telegraph, the
mails being too slow and uncertain
/ It is doubtful whether the response
will be CORRESPONDENCE prompt.

Dawson Wants Them.

The South Georgia Conference will
meet in Macon today for its annual
session. 1t is almost certain that the
people of Dawson will have the honor
and pleasure of entertaining this
great body of christian workers and
leaders a year hence. They met here
twenty years ago, and remember yet
and often refer to the open-hearted
hospitality with which they were en-
tertained. A veteran minister who
serves a church in another section of
the state said to the editor of The
News last week that the conference
held in Dawson was one Of the best
and most pleasant in the history OF
South Georgia Methodism. and that
he and many others he knew would
vote to return here in 1914.
Dawson's invitation, which is eX-
tended by the church, the mayor and
council and our people generally, will
be presented and urged by Pastor E.
f. Morgan, and he feels assured of
its acceptance.

MORE REASON FOR OATS.
from the Oglethorpe Echo.

FROM the OSleLnOTpe ECHO.
Figures furnished us by the Farm
ers' Cooperative Demonstration
Work in Georgia are to the effect
that the corn crop of the United
States for last year is 661, 729, 900
! bushels, or p per cent, short of the
crop of last year, and that the oat
crop is 296,198, 200 bushels, or by
striking coincidence the same per-
cent short-21 per cent. The same
report says the Georgia crops of oats
and corn were good this year, yet
the supply is very much short of
what the demand will be to supply
the needs of the state for the next
year.
With the supply of these staple
food crops one-fifth less than last
year. to say nothing of the increased
amount a larger population will re-
quire, can mean nothing less than
that high prices will prevail, and it
may be that they will be difficult to
obtain at any price.
These are actual conditions and
not mere newspaper theories to be
sneered at by farmers. AS such con-
ditions they ought to be considered
and acted upon by farmers without
any urgency by newspapers or any
body else. We are simply laying
them before our farmer readers, feel
ing that they have the foresight to
do the rest.
We will not have profted much by
the good cotton crop and high prices
therefor this year if we have to pay it
out for feed stuffs with which to
make next years crops.

SAUSAGE.

From the Macon Telegraph.
The editor of The Dawson News
says there may be a thousand varie-
ties of sausage, but the Georgia vari-
ETY. is good enough for him, and he
values them so highly that he would
vary from his rule to. take nothing
but cash for subscriptions and accept
a few pounds of the ''all-pork' vari-
ETY. on delinquent accounts. All of
which shows that even newspaper
man has some appreciation of worth
and is willing to give his paper to
help encourage the raising of hogs.

According to the United States de-
partment of agriculture the farmer
receives only AZ cents out of every
dollar paid by the consumer for his
produce. This fact is meeting with
general recognition, and many cities
throughout the country are seeking
a method of minimizing the differ
ence so that the producer and con-
SINNER will each benefit. Too many
non-producers levy toll between the
kitchen and the garden.

WANTS sEAB TO STAY AWAY

From the Albany Herald.
Hon. Seab Wright, having stir

bany will perhaps be next, and
then thereIl be something doing

The Daughters of the COnfederacy,
at their recent session in New Or
leans. went on record as opposed to
any movement that would seek to
induce the United States congress to
provide for payment of pensions to
confederate soldiers. There are two
sides to that proposition, we admit
but it is our belief that the confed-
crate veterans themselves will en-
dorse the attitude of these Southern
women. The point to consider is
that all Southern states ought to
make more generous provision for
the veterans of the South.

Grows In Few Years.
AS most people know. cork is the
outer bark Of an oak. This tree. known
to the botanists as Quercus suber. Is
an evergreen. native to the Mediter-
ranean region. and Is cultivated m
France. Spain, Portugal, Italy. Moroc-
CO. Tunis and Algiers. Ii carefully
done removing the bark does not In
lure the tree, and new supply may
be obtained from the same specimen
after few years.
We are so familiar with the use OF
cork for the shoppers Of bottles that
We seldom realize its manifold other
uses. though its connection with bot
ties dates back only about 800 years.
We so commonly speak Of the stopper
of bottle as q cork that we see no
incongruity In the expression "a rub
Der cork"
Just as our word for stopper has
been derived from the word cork. SO
cork itself has probably been derived
from the Spanish corcho. which in
turn is derived from the Latin cortex,
meaning rind. Some authors. however.
would derive cork from quercus. the
generic name OF all oaks.
Cork Is present in the bark of ell
trees. though In quantities too small to
make 1t useful In the many ways In
which cork from the cork oak is en-
ployed. The cork barked elm. the
sweet gum and a few others have
strongly developed cork.
