THE PRIMARY ELECTION

The coming election stands out
among the many heated contests
for Office in the county as one of
dignity and decorum far in excess
of any ever held in the confines of
wire grass Georgia. 1t is to the
credit of the men aspiring to
political preferment that the
entire election from the begin
ming of the contest has been
pitched upon a high plane, free
from personalities and solely up
on the merits of the candidates
seeking the Offices. The wise
ones predict the reelection of
some of the old officers with an
increased majority. On account
of the very quiet methods of
electioneering it is difficult to
discern any lineup, but the fact
that the character of the caudi-
dates is an open book to all the
voters will make it certain that
Ben Hill county will have as good
a set Of officers as the citizenship
of the county demand

we'll as a considerable strip of
grass were about to be sacrificed

out the state militia and have some

days on the peculiar mission of
selling hay, bringing Goals to

son is a grower and dealer of

no reason why alfalfa or any
other hay crop should not grow
to perfection in this soil and eli
mate and expresses himself with
surprise at the conservatism of
our farmers, who with all their
natural advantages of soil, sun
shine and long seasons, still de-
pend upon the West for their
feed stuff. This is Mr.. Watson's

has been shipping nay into the
State for years.
While in the city Mr.. Watson
was entertained by Mr.. J. ].
Terry, a former townsman OF his,
but who has made his residence
in the colony for the past IS
years. Mr.. Watson is so well
impressed with the possibilities
of our soil and climatic conditions
that he may return to enter the
hay making business on a large
scale.
