The climate is such that far

stock during the winter, there
being good grazingtheentir

stock Georgia offers greater
inducements than can be
found elsewhere.
The soil is suited for almost
anything that grows and can
be utilized the entire year.
The prices at which good
farm land can be purchased
at present in Georgia are so
low that it is a matter Of

that the land is not so good

few FARMERS AT
MORNING SESSION
Snow and Bad Roads Keep
Down Early Attendance at
Coal Valley Institute.

The first session Of the second Rock
Island County Farmers institute was
held at Coal Valley this morning.
Snow and the resultant difficulty in
reaching the town, made the farmers
late in arriving and as a result the
morning session was lightly attended.
The meeting was resolved into an
informal affair at which George Buck
presided Lindsey Reese was to have
lectured on Soil Fertility" but in
view of the few people present he
saved the lecture for the afternoon
and spoke instead on the "Old Time
Farmer" The morning program in
cluded an invocation by Rev. S. F.
Clark, plano solo by Miss Nina Miller
and songs by the Trevor Trio of
Moline.
The poultry and colt exhibits have
a considerable number of entries and
all seem to be unusually good. In
addition there are displays of cora,
baking and fancy work of various
kinds. The institute gives promise of
being a great success.

BUILD A BRIDGE
Petition for Mandamus Filed by
Henry's Attorney Is Held
Faulty.
DEMURRER IS SUSTAINED
Judge Olmsted Rules on Matter After
conslderation-Ben Taxman
Case Up Now.

The petition Of Henry county for
mandamus from the circuit court com
polling Rock Island county to pay
half Of the cost of a proposed bridge
over Rock river at Colona ferry, was
refused this afternoon when Judge r.
W. Olmsted sustained the demurrer
filed by States Attorney F. E. Thomp-
son Of Rock Island county. The OBJ
jections were technical, it being held
that the petition did not sufficiently
show the right Of Henry county to
demand that this county appropriate
money II does not have for bridge
building purposes. The mandamus had
been under advisement nearly two
weeks. The petition on behalf Of Hen.
~ county was drawn by c. Z. Sturtz,
former states attorney there. Nels
Anderson, at present incumbent Of that
office, spoke in behalf OF the petition
and Mr. Thompson in support of the
demurrer.

question Of benefits being taken before

term of court at which time the as

jections to the paving were based on
the grounds that the benefits to be
derived from the paving of the street
are unequal while the assessments
are made out according to the front

esta ablished tho well.known Bender
Brewery which he kept In operation
until few years ago. He took .
keen interest 10 all questions of the
day, had advanced ideas along social

There is no reason why we Shoulo
not. If everyone would take he
right Interest In the matter and
show enthusiasm in all the Sports
we could have teams winning cham
pionships in every branch OF ath-
letics instead of only in one.
The athletic possibilities are m
limited. One thing that gives US
decided advantage over other
schools around here is that we can
have our boys attend the gymnasttc'
classes given In our town, from the
time the boy is six years old to tho
time he enters high school. II this
opportunity were taken advantage OF
properly there would be no end Of
possibilities.
Possibilities in basketball are es.

keep 1t DOWN. Decidedly not. For
the good !, OF the team. everything
else should be forgotten. School
spirit ought to tell anybody that
much. SO let US get together to
see IL all this can not be done away
with. Baseball and track are etin
ahead of US, and should be dealt
with, with as much enthusiasm a.
basketball.
The prospects in baseball seem
to be brighter than that of track:
Last fall baseball team vas formed
to see what we could do. With 3
vast number (?) Of followers OF
high school fans this team went
up to show our friends on the hill
how to play the national game. Al
though baseball seems the stronger
of the two. track also should be
given a chance. There Is no reason
why track ought not to be encour-
aged; it gives the same chance to
every boy IN school; there is no rea-
son why any boy with q pair Of.
healthy legs ought not to go -
for this sport. 49,. q
From this it can be seen that
athletics should at least be encour-
aged, and II encouraged in the right
way. interest will be shown; interest
will beget competition. and comre.
