''The Girl Of the Underworld"

No better story than that which con-
Germs life in big city has been told
than that portrayed in 1.-THE Girl of the
Underworld" by Jack German, and
which will be presented in this city at
the Lyceum Theatre Monday night, De-
cember goth, by company of well
known actors and actresses, with see
mic equipment that is adequate in every
detail. The story of the play has to
deal with girls experiences in big
city and viYidly shows the trials and
temptations to be met with when seek
ing to gain laurels for which she is en-
tirely untitled This must not be con-
strued to mean that the play is at any
time offensive, because on the contrary,
the story is one of real heart interest
and is told in manner and style clean
and distinctive from all others of its ilk.

Mr.. J. F. Ames is going extensively
into stock-raising. He is one of the
largest, if not the largest individual
land holder in the county, and owns land
beginning at the western corporation
line of the city of Macon and extending
westward seven or eight miles. This
land he will fence in. The fence will
take in about six thousand acres. With
in this area about two thousand acres,
which will be cultivated, will be fenced
off in smaller areas and about four
thousand will be in woodland and pas
turage. There are now about three
hundred head of cattle on this land and
by the end of 1914 it is expected that
the herds will be increased to double
that number. Much of this land is cane
brake which affords excellent winter
pasturage.
Barns and silos will be built and a
thorough trial of growing beef cattle on
a large scale win he sasd-. Mr.. TfRest
Lucas is the field manages and win fook
after the building of the fences and af-
ter the cattle.
This venture will be watched with
great interest by our people. Little
doubt is entertained of its success.

Charles Richardson, ESQ.,, after prac-
ticing here for year or more in the
law office of his father, Hon. Geo.
Richardson, has moved to Louisville
and opened law Office there. After
the holidays he will go to Louisville
permanently.
Mr.. Richardson will be greatly missed
in Macon where he has many, many
friends whose good wishes accompany
him to his new home. After passing
the bar examination with great credit
he was winning success in Macon at the
bar, and will doubtless win distinction
at the bar of Winston county. Careful,
energetic and loyal to his clients. Mr..
Richardson has the elements in him to
make his mark and his friends will
watch his career with confident interest.
Never in the history of the town has
there been as many turkeys shipped
from, this point as this season. One
day this week eight wagon loads were
seen in front of the EXPIRE Office at one
time. The increased shipments of pro-

What the Farmers Need.

Mr.. Howard HI. Gross, president
of the National Soil Fertility
League, Chicago, has sent out the
following circular:
The American farmer needs
scientific aid. Man for man the
American farmer produces twice
as much as the farmer of Europe,
but he requires four or five times
the area to do it. His methods
are poorer, but his operations are
larger.
In European farming there is
more hand and less machine work
than with us. There often the
whole family is in the field for
long hours of gruelling labor.
This means peasant farmer, and
this we certainly do not want.
Our need is the best farm meth
DDS that can be carried on by
machinery, cultivating smaller
areas in a better manner. 1t is
better to raise 80 bushels yield,
say, of corn, on 30 acres than 80
bushels yield on so acres. Too of
ten farming large areas means two
crops on the same land-grain and
weeds.
An hour cutting weeds in Aug
ust before seeding, saves days
fighting their offspring next year.
THE LEVER AGRICULTURAL Elk
TENSION BILL.
This bill provides for trained
farm demonstration or "countN
agent" to carry to the farmer il
the field the best known methods
and show him how to apply them.
In other words, how to increase
his yield, how to bold up his soil,
how to decrease the cost of pro
duction, how to increase profits
and how to shorten his hours OF
labor by an increase of brain pow,
er. The farm demonstration will
quicken interest in farming among
tn the ypEuadlu SpBBj5lrltds'h show them
ge ana sure reward scienI
farming opens to them; that
it is big business, an interesting
business, a dignified business, and
when coupled with brains, indus
try and patience, the best and
safest business In the world.
WHAT THE FARM DEMONSTRATORS
WILL DO.
The farm demonstration or stcoun-
ty agent' will connect the farm
with the source of scientific knowl-
edge. He will aid in building up
a community spirit, will aid in CO.
operative movements and educa.
tional and social development, out
of which will grow a higher type
of citizen-the worlds most valu.
able and necessary man-THE
SCIENTIFIC, EFFICIENT AND PROS.
Porous FARMER
The passage of the Lever bill
will in due time double the eff
cheney of the average American
farmer by raising the poorer farm
er up to the present average farm.
er and raising the latter to the
standard OF the present best farm
er. 1t is the opinion of nearly ev.
cry authority upon the subject,
both at home and abroad, that
the Lever bill or ''show me" plan
is the only one that will effective
ly reach the great inert mass that
most needs help but who do not
realize it. Our best farmers of
today are able to take care of
themselves.

BIBB GRAND JURY
STARTS PROBE OF
ELECTION FRAUDS

MACON, GA, Jan. 9-The grand
jury is investigating the allegations as
to fraud in the primary held in Bibb
county last August, having secured, as
an initial step. possession Of the ballot
boxes which have been in the custody
Of the clerk Of the superior court since
the election. The clerk refused to sur
render the boxes until ordered to do so
in writing by Judge Mathews.
The sealing up of the duplicate, as
we'll as the original, voting and regis
t.ation lists in the boxes. the discovery
by recount Of a serious discrepancy
in one of the boxes the day after the
primary and the various charges that
were made by defeated candidates as
to fraud, all prompted the grand jury in
deciding on a probe.
The grand jury is deferred by the
judges order from examining any of
the ballots until discrepancies are de-
tected on the voters and registration
lists.
