ton. Second, they found that hog
killed directly off of peanuts will NOT
bring as high price as when finished
on corn or meal for about one
month. Mr.. Greer took special pains
IN comparing both kinds of meat. He
says they ordinarily make a differ
ence OF one-half cent a pound. Third.
they saw the need of small cold stor-
age plant on their farms. The time
meat has to be kept cool if properly
cured has not been given as much
consideration as it should. They saw
that they should be fixed up to cure
the meat properly any time the hogs
are ready to kill, and in this warm
climate they know that small cold
storage is absolutely necessary. These
may be built at small cost of from
$40 to $50, owing to the size. Fourth,
they were convinced that to raise
hogs it is very necessary to have past
ure crops Systematically arranged
and have something growing the year
round that the hogs can eat. This
they saw on the Battle farm in the
form Of burr, crimson and sweet clo-
vers, alfalfa, barley and rye The
farmers all saw that we can make a
success OF all these crops here as we'll
as farther north. Fifth, they believe
that the care which the stock on this
farm received is the care that Terrell
county stock should receive to make
a success with it. Their quarters are
kept clean, their drinking water is
pure and their lice are killed.
Several men have gone to work al
ready to fix up their places to take
better care of their stock. Others
are already planning to have more
clovers, alfalfa, ETC., to feed hogs on.
Still others are putting in concrete
wallows to keep them free of lice
and to get better breeding animals,
especially sires. If this trip did not
help to do something like this it
would be one day thrown away, but
such is not the case. The interest
that all took in the whole trip from
beginning to end would not indicate
that they went for mere idle curiOs-
ity, but on the other hand it was
very evident that they went to see
how best they could better their in
dividual conditions as we'll as that of
the entire county. Of course, all can
not have Joe Battle farms, neither
do they need them, but they do need
to put in practice a few things seen
there, and we firmly believe that
much good will be the result of the
trip

PAINFUL ACCIDENT.
Little Alvin Perrin Severely Burned
Friday.


Little Alvin Perrin was the unfor-
tunate victim of painful accident
Friday, while selling bread for the
Dawson bakery. In crossing on a
plank, over the smouldering cotton
seed at the oil mill, the result of the
recent fire, he made misstep, los
ing his balance and falling into the
burning debris. He had presence of
mind to grasp the plank, or he prob
ably would have been burned to
death.
A negro, to whom he was selling
his wares, became frightened when
he saw the boy fall, and ran away
in his excitement Mr.. Jim Murdoch
heard his cries and ran to his as
sistance. Alvin was badly blistered,
from the soles of his feet to his knees,
but after receiving medical atten-
ton is doing as well as could be ex-
pected.

The Dawson correspondent who
was so eager to be first to get the af-
fair of Walter and ElmOre Jolley in
the dailies had kindly waited until
they learned the true facts, | don't
think they could have conscientiously
made it so sensational. Gilmore
though seriously wounded, as the cor
respondent stated, left the next day
for Atlanta and stood the physical
examination for the navy, where l
hope he will learn to govern his I'M
comfortable temper.

LOCAL WOODMEN
HOME FROM ATHENS
They Took a Prominent Part in the
Head Camp, and Landed Some
of the Offices.

The Terrell county WoOdmen who
attended the Head Camp convention
Jurisdiction of Georgia, which was
in session at Athens Tuesday, We'd
nesday and Thursday of last week,
have returned to their homes in Daw-
son, Sasser, BrOnwood and Parrot.
The delegates were Judge L. C. Hoyl,
Col. R. R. Marlin, DR.. R. NJ Stewart
and MessrS. w. j. Lewis and B. G..
Perry of Dawson, D. J. Sessions and
w. R. Martin of Brentwood, M. S.
Jordan of SasSer, and Hollis Ken
yon of PARROT, and Mrs. r. NJ. Stew
art, who represented the WOodmcn
Circle of Dawson, besides the Bron-
wood Woodmen Band, consisting of
twenty pieces, which won the heart
of Athens and all delegates.
The Terrell county bunch, under
the leadership of Bill" Lewis, as he
is known to Georgia WOOdmen, took
a prominent part in the deliberations
of the convention, and succeeded in
securing all they desired in the mat
ter of offices. They put their united
strength behind Judge l.. c. Hoyl for
delegate to the Sovereign Camp,
which meets in st. Paul, Mimi, and
r. A. Jo1ley, a former Dawson boy,
for head clerk. Judge HOyl led the
ticket against eleven candidates for
the three places, securing two-thirds
of the entire vote on the first ballot,
and Mr. Jolley more than doubled
his opponent. Besides these two Of
fees they succeeded in landing some
of their friends in other parts of the
state to win, including Mr.. c. 0. Mar
lin. a former Dawsonian, who was
elected head sentry, and are more
than pleased by the outcome of the
convention.
The local Woodmen express them
selves in glowing terms about the
hospitality and entertainment given
them by the entire population OF the
Classic City. The mayor delivered
the choppers the keys of the city and
gave them entire possession without
the slightest restraint.
There were about 500 delegates in
attendance upon the Head Camp and
the ladies' auxiliary, the Head Grove
of the Woodmen Circle, and while
the hotels of the city were crowded
everyone was cared for nicely.

Lieutenant crittenden, Division
Commands, Would Drydock
Them Three Times a Year

The first submarine division Of the
Pacific fleet Is about the busiest or
ganization in the navy at the present
time. The three boats Of the class,
stationed at Honolulu. are being over
hauled and tuned up for the annual
engineering competition runs. which
VIII probably be held late in August,
and every officer and man on subma.
rine duty is working to full capacity
TO have everything run smoothly
when the Ena1 test comes.
The three F boats will probably be
put in drydock next month and when
they come out, free from fouling and
marine growth, they win go into the
competitions which are held annually
throughout the submarine service and
which determine the winner OF the spe-
cial engineering trophy for the year.
Officers CT the submarines face a
serious handicap here in the difficulty
OF keeping the boats clean. They be-
come foul in very short time in these
waters and this seriously affects their
maneuvers both o. the surface and
submerged.
Il have asked the navy department
for authority 10 put the submarines

tel yipidly some Of the incidents OF
their battling. A copy of q Canadian
paper, the Gananoque Reporter, OF Ga.
nanoque, Ontario. has reached the
Star-Bulletin. In it Is the following
letter from Maj. Russell H. Britton:
We are at last out of action, after a
steady fight of Is days duration, tn
which time we were constantly at 1t "a
hours per day. did not have my
boots off or get Q nights sleep or a
decent meal during the entire time,
nor did anyone else; and for 36 hours
We got absolutely nothing to eat or
drink Every avenue of comnnunica-
ton with the world was entirely shut
Off by shell fire. We did indeed have
3 warm time; i never thought anyone
could ever live through the hail OF
lead, and when these Huns turned on
the gas ] was thoroughly convinced
the end had come. We went into
action on the 22d Of April, and it so
happened that the Canadian artillery
division were changing position. or In
other words, the list Brigade had been
in reserve and the % and Sd were In
action. The 1st Brigade was coming
en- to relieve part of the I'd and 80
and we were doing it BY sections. The
Sd Battery had sent its left section up
to relieve the right section of the 9Th
Battery and we just got into position
when the game started. Taylor was
to leave the next afternoon, the eSd,
and relieve the other section of the
Sth, which would have brought my bat
terry together but he didn't get there
Through no fault of his, I can assure
you, as he usually gets where he sets

us quite Unexpectedly, and had half
Of my battery in the salient beyond
Ypres and the other half on the way
up, but on the opposite side OF Ypres.
The battle opened up in right royal
style. The Germans put a terrific shell
fire into the trenches, and knowing
that every shell was landing into our
Canadian boys, you can easily realize
that the Canadian artillery replied
with a determination that was at least
comforting. Both sides shot for ali
they were worth, and this continued
INCREASINGLY fer hours. and, great good
ness, it is hard on the nerves. We
have all had pleasanter things to as

plague.
But to get back. Howard Taylor's
section was en- the way coming up to
join Gillies section when the battle
started, and of course he was halted,
and four hours he waited on the side
of the road watching the inhabitants
Frenchmen, Belgians, etc.-beating 1t
to the rear; but finally orders came for
him to go into action at certain
place and he get there in short order.
