Farm Demonstration Agt Had a
Very Busy Month During May
Dry weather has been experienced throughout county but are
in as good shape could be expected

getting the truckers of Terrell in
touch with good reliable purchasers
of their products with fairly good
results. Tie efforts Of these truck
ers to diversity and thereby prepare
for any crisis that might occur is to
be greatly admired. 1t is hoped
that we will have more another in
Lee and Terrell as we'll. If we had
as many as so acres in each coun-
ty, we would have no trouble in
getting buyers to come and pay cash
for all the products.
A great deal of time has, also,
been given to purchasers Of the pear
crop of Lee. / fear that we are
going to be handicapped by not hay
ing the pear growers organized, it
being hard to come to any agree
ment when several individaalswork
separately. However, we can get
busy and do this yet. / want to
make an urgent request that every
pear grower in Lee county send me
his name, address, amount Of XIII
fer and LeConte pears he will have
this year, what he will consider in
the way of price for each, and he
sure to state if he will prepare for
shipping as the purchaser directs.
Now, if every man will do this at
once, we are more than likely toget
a buyer he.e, but if he does not, our
efforts will be partially in vain. 81,
hope to hear from all at once.
This members Of the Pig and Corn
clubs are getting on as nicely ascan
be expected. Not one las lost in
terest and | sincerely hope | can
to say this at the end of
each month. 1t seems that they
have resolved not to be gutter, but
to stay till the work is complete with
an exhibit at the county fair this
fall. Respectfully submitted,

Electric Current Promised For
Leesburg By July the Fourth
Insurance inspectors and contractors tor wiring houses busy here
Many houses already wired-TranmissOn lire
half constructed.

Manager Killebrew of the Albany
Power Company has promised that
electric current will be available in
Leesburg over the tranmission line
of the company of which he is
manager, unless unforeseen delays
occur, by the Fourth of July. The
announcement made by the power
company has created the liveliest
interest here, and insurance inspec-
tors have heen busy for some time
looking over the wiring already
placed in houses, az well as confer
ring with the electrical contractors
concerning the requirements Of wiz
ing that is to be done.
Though the power company un-
der the franchise that has besn sign
ed has an entire year to complete
the construction of the tranmission
line and to get a distributing station
here in shape for the supplying OF
power to the city and people of
Leesburg, nevertheless, so promptly
has the company entered upon the
fulfiIlment of it's part of the contract
that it seems likely that electric po-
wer will be available here within 3
months after the franchise was
agreed upon.
The most sanguine expectations
of the people Of Leesburg are being
realized with reference to the prom
ptness and courtesy with which the
power company is proceeding to car
ry out its part of the contract. 1t
had been hoped here at first thai
the tranmission line would be COM
pleted and power be ready for dis
tribution here by the beginning +
September, but the indications are
nov that the people of Lees urg
will be enjoying electric lights be-
fore that time. 1t would seem that
the patronage that will be given the
Albany plant will be exceptionally
good, as the people Of Leesburg,
with very few exceptions, are pre-
1ari lg to use electric lights or po-
wer, or both. 4
Two of The Journal advertisers,
Blackwell & Snider and Sligo Far
kas, are prepared to do modern wiz
ing, thoroughly and carefully in
sulated and guaranteed to conform
to the requirements of the South

ierred to these gentlemen, who will

Start. Movement For
Six O'clock Closing
HOped that merchants will grant favor to en-
ployees.

A movement has been started here
to get all the merchants in Lees
burg to sign an agreement to close
their stores at 6 O'Clock during the
summer season. The Journal hea-
rtily favors this plan, as it is OF
great benefit to the employees and
does not work injury to patrons OF
the various stores. There Is no
need for keeping open after 8 o.
clock now, especially when the
trading public is notified in advance
Of the hours.

A Message to Thin,
Weak, Scrawny Folks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80
lbs. of Solid, Healthy, Per-
manent Flesh.

Thin. nervous. undeyeoped men and women
everywhere are heard to say. Il can't under
stand why | do not get fat. | eat plenty Of good
nourishing food" The is Just this: You
can not get fat, matter how much you eat
unless your digestive organs assimilate the fat
making elements Of your food instead of passing
them out through the body as waste
What is needed is means Of gently urging the
assmilstive functions of the stomach and intes-
tines to absorb the oils and fats and hand them
over to the blood, where they may reach the
starved shrunken. rundown tissues and build
them up. The thin PERSONS body is like drv
sponge-eager and hungry for the fatty materials
of which it is being deprived by the failure OF the
ahmentary canal to take them from the food The
best way to overcome this sinful waste of flesh
building elements and to stop the leakage OF fats
Is to use Sargol. the recently discovered regenera
tive force that Is recommended so highly lly nhysi-
with every meal and notice how quickly yolIr
cheeks NIL out and rolls Of firm. healthy flesh are
deposited over your body covering each bonv
angle and projecting point. Jacobs Pharmacy and
ouher good druggists have Sargo can get #

MAKES YOUR BACKACHE VANISH,
DRIVES ALL RHEUMATIC PAINS AWAY
New Discovery Eases Stiff Sore Joints and Muscles
Relieving Backache and Bladder Disorders
After Few Doses Taken.

No matter how badly you suffer,
how chronic your case may be, or
what has failed to cure you, your
pains will leave, your aches vanish
and the torturous killing backache or
rheumatism will bother you no more.
This is what Croxone, the new sci
entific discovery, does for sufferers of
such troubles. 1t cures these diseases
because it reaches the cause and re-
moves it. 1t soaks right into the
walls and Innings of the kidneys
and cleans out the stopped up mac
tive organs like water does a sponge
-neutralizes and dissolves every par
ticle of uric acid and makes the kid
neys sift from the blood all the waste
matter and poisons that lodge in the
joints and muscles to scratch and ir-
rltate and cause rheumatism. 1t
soothes and heals the delicate Innings
of the bladder and leaves the kidneys
in clean, strong, healthy condition,

MRS. CRAWL ORD
CLEARED; CIVIL
CASE To co ON
Grand Jury Returns "No Bill"
Against Widow Charged With
Poisoning Her Husband.

The action of the Fulton County
Grand Jury in returning mo bill'
against Mrs. Mary Belle Crawford
will have no bearing on the civil case,
involving the property rights of the AS
plaintiff heirs, according to state
ments made Thursday by the lawyers
Of the prosecution.
We have no doubt that justice
Will be meted out to Mrs. Crawford
and to the heirs of j. B. Crawford"
said Col. Joseph S. James. Mrs.
Crawford is in possession of the
property of ]. B. Crawford, and part
~ of Nancy f. Crawford, illegally
and fraudulently, and when the case
finally is submitted to the courts, we
have no doubt of the triumph of our
cause"
The criminal proceedings, it is I'M
derstood, practically will stop with
the action of the Grand Jury Wednes-
day in finding mo bill' against Mrs
Crawford on the charge of murder
ing her husband four years ago by
poison. Another Grand Jury must
pass on the case before Mrs. Craw-
ford finally is freed of the $4,000
bond on which she has her liberty,
but 1t is unlikely that another probe
Of the death of Joshua Crawford will
be- made.
The criminal charge of poisoning
was not made against Mrs Crawford
until July, 1913, when Dr. II. F. Har-
ris exhumed the body and made an
examination. The civil case pressed
by As heirs, already had been in
progress for two years, and it will be
resumed with arguments before the
auditor as soon as Reuben R. Ar

so they can filter the blood and keep
you well.
If you suffer with backache-hav4
pains in the neck or sides-nervous
or dizzy spells--a few doses Of Crox-
one will relieve the congestion and
you will be surprised how quickly all
kidney bladder and rheumatic trou-
bles will disappear.
CrOxone is different from all other
remedies. 1t is not like anything else
on earth ever used for the purpose
1t starts to work the minute you take
it and relieves your suffering the yerg
first time you use it. 1t is 50 prepared
that it Is practically impossible to
take 1t into the human system with
out results. You can secure an orig
inal package of Croxone at trifing
cost from any first-class druggist, All
druggists are authorized to personally
return the purchase price if Croxone
should fail in a single case.-Advt
