each year. Wherever they have been
held the attendance is always great
er the next time, proving conclusively
that the lecturers have hit the mark
and have told the farmers things that
have PANIED out. One South Geor-
gia farmer told one of the speakers on
the occasion of his second visit that
he had saved him $500 by his speech
the year before. Such words of ap-
probation of the practical information
given, are being frequently received.
If any farmer thinks that what
these lecturers are giving to the far
mers is theoretical and not practical,
he is urged to go to the meetings and
prove it. While not infallible, the
staff members of the College of Agri-
culture do know a good many things
for certain that have been proven with
painstaking care and by unquestionable
methods. 1t is these facts that they
are seeking to take to the farmer.
Nothing that has not been thoroughly
proven have they the right to advo-
cate.
Go out to the farmers institute and
get further information. No one has
too much. 1t may mean the saving or
the making of many dollars where
none is being made or saved by you

vision caught by the citizens of a
distant state, but which some of our
people have been wise enough to ap-
propriate and utilize Gentlemen of
the Board of Trustees, urge the legis-
lature to give him every dollar that
he asks. 1t will pay the state from
every standpoint. Georgia has been
tardy in paying the debt that she owes
her sons of the soil For generations
they have paid to the state the lar.
ger portion of the taxes that have
flowed into her treasury. Georgia is
but discharging a debt that she owes
these men when she makes large ap-
preparations for the advancement of
agriculture. Georgia is an agricultural
state. If she is ever rich and truly
prosperous, she must become so be-
cause of the scientific development of
her farming interests; Georgia has
many charitable and educational in
situations to support and advance. 1t
is the candid opinion of the Board of
Visitors that the best, yea, the only
way to maintain these institutions is
by encouraging the work of the Agri-
cultural College to such an extent that
there shall be no farmer throughout
our state who does not come within
the sphere of its influence, and who
fails to realize that his vocation is as
honorable, as greatly respected and as
remunerative as are those of pro-
fessional and commercial life.

One cotton manufacturer who took
a course in cotton grading at the Col
lege of Agriculture claims that it
has saved him $4,000 year. Eleven
students have been placed in ware
houses and one in cotton breeding
work.
Sunbeam cotton which has been
bred at the College to become resis-
tant to anthracnose, is now distribut-
ed in II counties with about 5000
acres planted in 1918. 1t is already
saving about $4,000 annually to the
farmers. It's merits are resistance
to anthracnose, grades high in lint in

HAVE YOU SOMETHING
TO SELL! -. -. 50 80

If so, do you tell the public
about it? II you do, how do
you do it?
And what sort of reputation
is back of the merchandise you
are offering?
The answers to these ques-
tions may spell success or fail
IRE to many a merchant.
From an intimate association
with a wide circle of concerns,
merchandising all the neces-
saries of life, we Venture to say:
The quickest and surest way
to reach the public is through
the columns of dependable
daily newspaper like The Times
Recorder-one that has high
standing in the community it
serves, and has the confidence
or lJS T6dueFS.
The most dependable articles
sold today are those to which
the manufacturer is not afraid
to attach his label--that is to
say, his reputation.
Retail merchants are now
joining hands with the manu-
facturer, and the public is thus
doubly guaranteed against in
feriority.

facturer and retailer plus good,
clean newspaper advertising,
means success to them both,

ton to the purchaser"

GLOBE JUNkET
MAY HURT MEN
NEXT SEASON
Fans Fear That Trip Around Globe
May Impair Playing Form
aA-of the Teams.
BY Damon Runyon.

n EW YORK, Nov. st will be
" interesting to note what effect,
if any, continuous ball playing
will have on the men who are taking
the world tour with McGraw and
Comiskey. Some people believe that
the long journey will prove harmful
to the players, and that it will Sc
riously Impair their playing form next
season.
If the Giants make a poor showing
in 1914 it will undoubtedly be traced
back to the tour, and the same is
true OF the White SoX, regardless of
the fact that there are almost as
many men from other teams playing
with the combination as there are
from the Giants and the SoX.
However, when the Giants went to
Cuba and played most of the winter
it did not prevent them from winning
the pennant in their league the fol-
lowing season, and cases where d man
was affected by his off season playing
seem to be comparatively rare.
The members of the touring teams
will have to get in their training ticks
for 1914 on the road, as they do not
get back to this country until the
clubs are about ready to break camp
in the South. McGraw will not land
at Marlin with his men until about
March 10, and by then the Giant crew
is usually preparing for the long jaunt
home.
Arthur Devlin, former Giant, and
once accounted the greatest third
baseman in the game, viii be in there
welcoming his former bunkies on the
New York club when the world tour
ers strike California. Arthur Is now
manager of the Oakland club, of the
Pacific Coast League, and has made
quite a hit although he took hold too
late in the season to show anything.
With Bill Dahlen over in BROOKLYN.
Handsome Harold Mccormick in the
Southern League and Devlin on the
coast the association of McGraw
graduates has extended far and wide.

In Getting Started

NEW YORK, Nov. S-Ritchie's friends
who saw him at work yesterday said
that the lightweight champion was a

ten-round distance. They explained
that Richie was slow in getting started
and that he had shown this defect in
bouts with Wolgast, Rivers and Mandot.
Richie is training more for speed than
anything else. He admits that Cross il
better equipped for a ten-round bout
inasmuch as he has been travelling thai
