The Tax Burden.

We find in a New York paper the
following comment on the tax bur
den, especially as it is in Savannah,
here in our own state:
1T must be annoying to have
the tax burden applied as it is in
Savannah, Ca, and we can imagine
the distressed business man of that
ritr longing for the methods pur-
sued in Northern cities. A tax
dodger there should be able to
command good salary as
ground and lofty tumbler and con-
tortionist in any circus or yaude-
Vile circuit. In that city all prop
erty and every kind of business are
taxed. Auctioneers pay $500 an
nually per room; department
stores 500, bankers $50, retail ice
men $40, wholesale icemen 500,
coal dealers 500, tailors SO, bar
bers 81 for each chair, undertakers
$50. junk dealers $500, palmists
and astroIogers $500, and auto
mobiles from SO to $25."
The comment OF the Northern
newspaper is not applicable to Sa
vannah alone, as what it says /
true of every city and town in Geor
STA, Dawson included, No one Is
rapes the tax gatherer, not even tn
little pickaninny bootblack who gath
ers in a few nickels by shining tn
shoes of the village people.

INVENTORY TIME.

Have your moneyed citizens conf
dence enough in the community to
invest their money in it?
Are you yourself keeping up with
the procession? Or
Are your principal products cob
webs, wiregrass and tumbleweeds?
Are you allowing the opportunity
of your lifetime to go unheeded-
your town to become d prepay sta
tion''-your neighbors to lose conf
dence in the community and in you?
Perhaps a little ginger is what you
need. Next Christmas may be too
late. Why not take inventory right
a way?

Throughout the past few years
of progress fertilizers have not
been left behind.
While farm machinery makers
have been devising better ways of
reaping the crops we have been
finding better ways to produce
them.
We have made "a. A. c." Fer
tilizers in formulas TO supply the
demand of every soil and crop.
The need had long been urgent
for exactness in mixing fertilizers.
For if a single one of the several
elements that crops require is lack
ing in your soil the size of your
crop is reduced.
Fortunately for farmers, only
three of the elements are subject
to material loss.
Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and
Potash are all of the elements that
farmers usually need to buy.
When enough of these three ele-
ments are applied every need Of
the plant is supplied.
The law, therefore, demands that
the analysis be printed on the
bags. But this measure, helpful as
it is, can never fully indicate the
value of your Fertilizer.

The Extra Session.

The president appears to be hav-
ing some trouble in fixing the time
of converting the extra session OF con-
gress he is to call, and also in deter
mining the subjects which he will
recommend for consideration. When
it was first determined to call an eX-
ira session March 18th was thought
to be q good time for beginning the
session. Then it was given out that
for various reasons April list would
be a better date, and now it is said
that later date is being regarded
with favor.
And it seems safe to say that leg
islation will not be confined to one
subject. 1t was expected of course
that most of the session would be oc
cupied with the tariff, but it is nov
intimated that attention may be Civ
en- to banking and surrency reform

Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Hall Burt
celebrated their SEVENTEEN wedding
In February each cele-
brated a ninety-third birthday. They
are more remarkable for the anniVer-

age is not unusual while seventy
years of married life is. In these

Another source of Nitrogen that
could not be washed out of the
soil was one of our adoptions.
We emplyed forms of Phosphor-
ic Acid that would feed the plant
throughout the growth.
There were certain crops that
required an abundance of Potash.
Supplied in one form it would
largely increase the yield. In an
other form it's effects were highly
injurious.
So in each element that fertilizer
makers use We sought to make an
improvement. We sought to cor
rect every fault.
Practical men have brought to
the mixing of A. A. c. Fertilizers
a wealth of experience.
They have studied the needs of
every Southern crop-the peculiar
tiles of every type of soil. Wher-
ever A. A. G. Fertilizers are used
bigger yields of cotton, corn and
tobacco have been the telling effect
of their work.
Men of lesser experience could
never know all of the things these
men have discovered.
DRY MIXED OR HOME MIXED
FERTILIZERS LACK THE PROP
ERTIES OF THESE CHEMICAL
LY MIXED BRANDS. Mere anal
ysis does not show the superior
value of A. A. G. Fertilizer.
For analysis only shows the
amount of plant foods contained.
1t cannot show the forms in which
the plant foods exist.
Fertilizer with Nitrogen in only
a single form would seem the same
from analysis.

" business. The farmers inter-
ests are our interests. Our sales
are dependent upon his crops.
