THE PUBLIC WILL APPROVE

A train conductor alleges that he
was injured when he fell between
two cars because of exhaustion after
having worked three days and nights
with but nine hours rest has received
verdict of $4,000 damages in an
eastern court. Heavy damages, but
the verdict will be approved not only
because the revenge of the conductor
upon heartless employers will be
popular, but also because the public
is much concerned in the matter of
whether trainmen are overworked so
that they are exhausted and unfit for
their duties.
1t seems strange that a railroad
would allow-much less require, men
in important positions to work over
time. But it seems to be common
thing for engineers and other train
men to be required to work until
they are in no condition to pred
form safe service for the passengers
of the road. No punishment for
such practice can be be too heavy

THE TERMINATION OF
CRIMSON CLOVER SEED.

Since November 1, 1913, there have
been imported into the United States
3,329,883 pounds of crimson clover
seed. This seed comes mostly from
France and Australia, where the har-
vest season is practically the same as
in this country. The time for seeing
follows the harvest season so closely
that only a part of the imported seed
is received in time to be sown the
year it is raised If the conditions of
storage are not the best the seed may
lose materially in vitality between
the time of harvest and that of seed
ing the next year.
New seed of good quality is free
from any brownish color, but old
seed shows varying degrees of brown
according to age and conditions under
which it has been stored The
brownish color is an indication of
poor germination-the darker the col
or the poorer the termination. Seed
which shows a slight browninsh color
should be tested for termination be-
fore sowing, and no brown seed
should be used unless termination
! test shows it will grow we'll.
termination tests of the 119 lots Of
crimson clover seed imported in the
last eight months show an average
of 80 per cent. of live seeds. The ger
mination varied from 40 per cent. for
the poorest lot to 81 per cent. for the
best lot. AS crimson clover seed
loses its vitality rapidly, and as prac-
tically all the imported seed is 1
year old before seeding, an effort
should be made to save domestic seed
wherever possible. This is especially
true of seed for local home use,
where it can be seeded without
threShing or cleaning.

A MISTAKEN IDEA

There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This is mistaken idea, because Scott
Emulsion first strengthens the body before
making flesh. Its blood-forming proper
ties aid nature to throw off sickness by
building health from its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTS.

THE GYPsEY NUISANCE.

A band of Gypsies has been annoy
ing the people in some of the Central
Kentucky towns. One bunch, in
particular, is carrying with it herd
of about 60 horses and makes prac-
tice of allowing the animal sto forage
on the public highways. The Gypsies
themselves are pretty good at forag-
ing and are given to securing their
subsistence by ways that are dark
and tricks that are vain" Some day
when the pople in the country towns
get real tired of them a shotgun
quarantine will be established and
the Gypsies will find that there are
no more "good pickings' in certain
localities where they once reaped a
bountiful harvest.
These Gypsies, or members of an
other band, are held responsible for

STEMS AND STALKS

Should the demand of Europe for
American tobacco stems cease, these
stems, which contain large quaint
ties of plant food, especially potash,
may be used to good advantage by
the American grower of tobacco as
fertilizer. Soil fortified by these
stems secured from the cigar, and to-
bacco factories and Stemmeries, will
ing qualities and texture.
Tobacco stems as fertilizer should
be applied in smaller quantities than
manure, because they contain larger
quantities of the constituents which
feed the plant, according to the De-
partment's tobacco specialists. Two
tons per acre of ''seed stems"
(stems from cigar factories) or 21s
tons of Kentucky stems" (stems
from tobacco factories and stemmer-
ies) are known to give good results
in New England and, SO far as avail
able, these stems will undoubtedly
furnish very satisfactory source OF
potash, as we'll as other plant foods,
in other sections.
Considerable quantities of tobacco
stems have long been exported to
Germany and other parts Of Europe
where they are often used in the
manufacture of low grade smoking
tobacco and as a source of nicotine
Tobacco stalks which are not re-
moved from the farm under prevail
ing methods, are not always used to
the best advantage as a fertilizer
Like the stems, they contain consid
cradle quantities of valuable plant
food Though not so much) and may
be used freely as fertilizer for to-
bacco and other crops. They may be
proftably used to improve the hay
lot by simply spreading the stalks
over the land in the fall or they may
be plowed under the same season for
cultivated crops, such as cotton, corn
tobacco, etc. The practice of piling
tobacco stalks in heaps and leaving
them exposed to the weather means
a waste of valuable maternal that
might be returned to the SOIL The
practice of burning them is also
wasteful unless they are infected
by such serious disease as the
Granville wilt.

MARRIAGE OF MISS MORRIS
and Mr.. JOHN FIELDS
Former AmeriCuS Couple Mar.
Fied at DOthaB

The marriage at Dothan, Ala, a day
or two ago of Miss Mayme Morris, OF
Florala, and Mr.. John F. Fields, of
Eatonton, is of interest to their
friends in Americus, where both the
bride and groom formerly resided. The
marriage was an occasion of interest
in the little Alabama city and at
tended by large company. The mar
riage ceremony took place at the
home of Mr.. r. L. Morris, and
was very pretty occasion.
Miss Morris attendants were her
sister, Miss Emma Morris, of Cuth-
bert, Ga, maid of honor, and her cou-
sin, Miss Maydee Crawford, who were
lovely in dainty white lingerie cos
tunes with fluffy pink sashes and
white lace hats prettily trimmed in
pink roses and carried arm boquets of
white Killarney roses tied, with pink
tulle.
Mr.. Fields was attended by Mr..
yann Boyett, of Cuthbert, as best
man. Miss Morris was given in mar
riage by her uncle, Mr.. R. L. Morris
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. H. H. Mcneil, of the FIRST Meth
odist church. AS the strains of Men
delssohns wedding march, played by
Miss Louella Fields, of Americus, sis
ter of the groom, sounded, the bridal
party entered the reception room and
stood around the altar. During the
ceremony Miss Fields softly played
Hearts and Flowers"
Miss Morris wore becoming tailor
ed suit of Copenhagen faille and with
it a modish hat of gold braid She
carried an arm boquet of brides roses
and valley lilies.
The guests at the wedding were
limited to the relatives and a few
friends of the family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fields left for visit to
the mountains of Tennessee and at
the conclusion of their bridal trio
they will be at home in Eatontor,
where Mr.. Fields is agent for the
Southern Express Company at that
place.

ELECTION NEARS
YET CANDIDATES
REMAIN DORMANT
ONLY TWENTY SIX DAYS
Before Primary For LGgis-
ldtiVe Members

Sumter county is going to have
close shave for representation in the
next legislature" said prominent
Americus man yesterday in discussing
the political outlook. "Of course" he
continued, there is abundant legisIa-
tive timber here, but it seems that no
one is hankering for the honors, or, if
so, they are flirting with the job, as
the time is being whitfield to a fine
point, and as yet there is but one as
pirant for Sumter's two seats"
If there are any dark horses thoir
whereabouts in the bushes is not
known to the average voter, and the
arena is well nigh deserted
Doubtless there will be other an
nouncements ere long, but under the
rules of the executive committee the
list of entries must be closed in few
days, the assessments paid in, and tn
yard-long ballots printed. This viii
require time, and the man who as
pires to Office must make the fact
known ere the list closes, and the
band wagon starts.
August 18th is the general primary
date, when the voters will name the
next governor of Georgia, statehouse
officers, two United States senators,
Judges, state senator's and membe ers of
the lower house. Greatest interest at.
taches to this important primary, and
Sumters voters will rally strong at
the polls on that date. Interest here
centers chilly in the senatorial contest
between Messrs. Slaton, Fielder, Hard
wick and Cooper, the two first named
easily leading.
Schley county names the state SEN
ator for this, the Thirteenth district,
this time, but Sumter has two seats
in the lower house, and is very anx-
ious now as to who will occupy them.
Let the candidates bestir themselves
and get into the game.

Atlanta, July 23-A smooth attempt
to beat a restaurant out of 500 but

Armstrong, young Atlanta man, was
bound over for cheating and cwindl-

him.
Armstrong, it was alleged, went

per. There they apparently became
violently i'll and sent for physician
Next day lawyer appeared in the
cafe and threatened suit and publicity
unless his client was handed some
thing. The cafe proprietor, frighten-
ed gave up 800. After a while he
learned that Armstrong had laughed
over his own smoothness, and sent for
detectives.
In the course of the evidence it was
learned that the young woman in tn
coce was not married to Armstrong
though they were registered together
at hotel. She had already left tn,

SUMTER LEADING
OTHER COUNTIES
splendid CROPS
The BEST EVER IN JULY
Visitors 4re Pleased At Crop
Prospect

I'VE thought we had good crops
in Terrell county, and are still O.
that opinion, but crops there will not
compare with what was shown US IN
Sumter this morning" said Mr.. Rob
ert McLain, we'll known Terrell far
mer, residing near Dawson. And this
candid expression of opinion was re-
iterated by his friend, Mr.. Andrew
Hill, of Terrell, who also made tie
trip of forty or fifty miles amid the
fields of Sumter.
Accompanied by Mr.. M. B. Council
in his comfortable car, the Dawson
visitors were given spin out to Flint
river, through the 9th and 2Sth dis
tricts of Sumter, returning via Les
lie and Desoto, trip of perhaps fifty
miles.
The fields of cotton and corn along
the route taken are truly magnificent
and readily evoked the admiration of
the visitors. Many of the fields of
cotton are good for bale per acre,
while at every point the condition was
better than usual at this season. In
fact Sumter's crop rospect-cotton,
corn and hay-was never before quite
so good as now, and an abundant fa'I
harvest is fully assured already.
There are many fields of corn in
Sumter that are good for fifty bushels
per acre, while the yield Of others is
estimated at seventy-fve bushels. A
bumper corn crop is made already and
is past the danger point.
Terrell, the home county Of Messrs.
Hill and McLain, is a strong rival of
Sumter agriculturally, and one Of
the very best farming counties i'll
Georgia. Unfortunately, however, rain
was not as abundant there this sum-
mer, as here, and the crops of Ter
rell, while far above the average, are
hardly as good as they otherwise
would have been under conditions
more favorable. In fact, Sumter and
Terrell lead all counties in southern
Georgia.
With continued favorable seasons
an era of unexampled prosperity will
dawn for both counties in the harvest
season.
