What's Wrong With
The Fire Department

Friday night the machine shop
of l.. Parnin on N. Grant street
was fatally destroyed by a fire
starting presumably near the
bailer. The departure INT was called
out and though a fire plug is To-
Gated within 200 feet of the build
ing, the firemen attached their
hose some &wo blocks away. on
corner of Central Ave. and Grant
street greatly reducing their eff
cheney and loosing time in getting
water to the fire. Mr.. Parnin
stated that the fire could have
been extinguished with small loss
had the department used the near
er plug. By attaching the hose
at the Central Ave. plug they had
to cross the railroad tracks with
the hose and stop traffic on the
road, when by using gthe plug on
Oconee street they would have
been right at the fire and left the
road free for traffic. 1t would
seem to US that there was lack of
judgement somewhere in the
management of this fire.
A small blaze at the residence
of Mr.. j. L. Pittman brought the
department out to Central Ave.
Saturday soon enough to put out
the fire. before much damage was
done.

Col. W. I. Anderson
Accepts Invitation

Col. w. 7. Anderson of the
Dixie Highway commission has &C.
copied an invitation extended tohim
by the "Short Rouse'' association
to meet with the association in
Fitzgerald July 5th. to dedicate
the Ben Hill County link of the
"short route" through Georgia.
Delegations from Hawkinsville,
Abbeville, Ocilla, Douglas, Nlch-
OILS, Nashville, Waycross and
Folkston have already sent assur-
ances of cooperation and the largest
gathering of ''good roads" boosters
of S. Georgia will be here to greet
the Dixie Highway commissioner
from Macon. Mr.. Anderson will
arrive via Hawkinsville and miles
of Automobiles will escort him
from his home town (HawkinsviIle)
to the Colony city. AS a boy Mr..
Anderson used to travel the old
trails through these woods and the
picture that will unfold itself be-
fore his eyes, as he travels the
we'll known routes of his childhood
days, will seem like page from
the Arabian nights, so marvellous
are the changes that have taken
place along the entire route in the
past twenty five years. Mr.. An
derson will be the guest of the
Fitzgerald Chamber of Commerce
while in the city.

The Secret of II

Germany alone Of the great powers
now at war, is sufficient within her
self. No other nation of those en-
gagged could so well have withstood the
commercial isolation enforced upon
that empire. She alone has been able
to supply all her own needs. Natural
ly, she has desired opportunity to buy
food and ammunition from the outside
world, but since it is denied her she
is getting along without them. Sim
ilarly situated in a measure, but not
cut off to such a degree, Russia is
crumbling before her advance, largely
it is admitted, for lack of military
supplies.
Why is it that Germany is so much
better able to Withstand this isolation,
to depend upon herself? The answer
is found in a few words: Her Protec-
tive tariff For near two generations
Germany has had policy of Protec-
ton, sufficient and continuous. Under
that Protection she has fostered and
developed to a high degree the manu-
facture of everything she needs, either
in peace or war. Meanwhile, under the
same policy. she forged ahead indus
trially and commercially as no other
European nation has. In many re-
spects she surpassed the United
States.
II there had been yet needed any
argument to prove the wisdom of the
Protective policy, it is found in the
wonderful ability shown by Germany
in the present war to supply her own
needs, and supply them with an abun-
dance far beyond the reach of her enc
mics, who have had the markets of all
the world open to them.-Cuba IN.

Do you recognize this fragrance

There are baskets heaped with apples,

And neatly written labels soon their
contents will disclose.

BIG BARNES CIRCUS COMING
900 Educated Animals! Program of
Instructive, Laughing, Amazing,
Thrilling Acts, All Done by
Animals

The Al C. Barnes big Three Ring
wild animal circus will exhibit in La
mar on Wednesday, October 10, giving
performances at 2 and 8 P. NJ.
Much can be claimed for the origi-
nality and genuine merit of this big
circus. There is all the pomp and
splendor of the circuses we have
known in the past. All the glittering
tinsel, sawdust rings, inspiring mu-
sic and grand entrance of stately
horses, ponies, elephants, performers
and clowns. Peanut and pink lemon
ade vendors cry their wares and add
to the general good spirit: yet, when
the performance starts, one instantly
recognizes a wide departure from the
conventional, stereotyped routine that
has prevailed since the earliest days
of tented entertainment.
Instead of the usual, one sees the
very unusual in the Barnes program.
The principal acts are done by edu-
Gated wild and domestic animals in
two rings and a big steel barred
arena. These animal actors number
600 and are trained to an amazing
degree of proficiency. Such vim and
dash do they put into their work that
not dull moment is experienced from
the grand cavalcade entry until the
final group of man-eating lions are
to their cages.
There are acrobats, jugglers, aerial
performers, high divers, bare back
riders and all other forms of circus
entertainment, but, instead Of people
appearing in the acts, wild and do
nestle animals take their places.
Lions, leopards, pumas and bears ride
galloping horses; sea lions juggle balls
and other articles, dogs and monkeys
jump from the top of the tent into
nets; elephants act as clowns and do
many other comical things; high school
horses and beautiful ponies appear in
brilliant dances and military drills, in
fact almost every species Of animal is
shown as an actor.
Twenty-four man-eating African
lions are introduced in one act, the
most sensational wild animal act ever
shown. Sixty tigers, leopards, pu-
mas, jaguars and bears are presented
by coterie of young women trainers.
A great array Of clean, clever COM
edy permeates the entire program pro-
vided by fifty comedy elephants, dogs,
kigs, goats, monkeys, ponies, zebus,
and Danger, Dynamite
A glittering mile-long street parade
in which six bands take part is pre-
scented to the public at 1920.

USE SWEET CLOVER
TO IMPROVE SOILS
Kansas Agricultural College
Shows Where Newly Recog-
nized Crop Is Profitable.

Sweet clover excels alfalfa as a
cattle pasture and is superior to all
other crops for improving soils de-
ficient in organic matter, though 1t
has been lately overrated as a crop
to grow under all circumstances.
These conclusions are reached as a
result of investigations by the agron-
omy department of the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
"In the past two years." says c. c.
Cunningham. assistant In co-opera-
tive experiments, there has taken
place in the popular mind a radical
change in opinion regarding sweet
clover Once considered a noxious
weed, 1t is now recognized as valu-
able crop. To large extent sweet
clover Is deserving OF this change of
opinion regarding it, but, like any
new crop that suddenly comes into
favor, 1t has been overrated for grow
ing under all conditions. 1t has
proved valuable, however. under GER
tain conditions and for special pur-
poses.
Sweet clover can be grown to ad-
vantage for hay on some soils not
adapted to alfalfa or red clover. 1t
is, however, a substitute for these
crops and is useful for hay when the
more valuable kinds cannot be sue
cessfully grown.
Sweet clover is Of value as pas
ture and soil improvement crop and
will undoubtedly be extensively util-
ICED for these purposes. Properly
handled. sweet clover will furnish
more pasture than most other pas
ture crops, especially on the poorer
types of soils. 1t excels alfalfa as a
pasture for cattle, In that it rarely
causes bloat Sweet clover Is SUI
perior to all other crops for use In
improving soils deficient In organic
matter"
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1915-07-01

The far-reaching influences Of the
present war are illustrated by the eff
feet it is having on the Indian and
half-breed trappers Of Labrador and
Hudson bay, says an exchange. The
various companies which carry on the
traffic in pelts in this northern re-
gion are curtaiing their operations
and although steamers Of the New
foundland sealing fleet will go north
in the coming summer, as in previous
years, to take supplies for the fur
trading posts and to embark the
stocks of furs and fish collected dur
ing the past twelve months, they will
carry much smaller quantities Of trad
ing goods and provisions than hereto
fore. This policy Is dictated by the
fact that since the war began valuable
furs have been drug in the worlds
markets, and little prospect OF any
betterment Is foreshadowed until aft
err hostilities terminate and old time
conditions Of prosperity revive.

TENT CATERPILLAR
DOES MUCH DAMAGE
Insects Will Soon Strip Tree Of
Its FoIiage-Spraying Will .
Destroy Them.

A few colonies Of the tent caterpil-
lars, which you can Identify by the un-
slightly web nests. or tents, that they
make in trees. will soon strip tree Of
its foliage The nests may be either
cut out and destroyed, or burned with
a torch, taking care not to seriously
injure the tree. The masses Of eggs
from which these nests of caterpillars
hatch are laid on the trees in early
midsummer and may be seen and de-
stroyed when the leaves fall
Spraying the trees with paris green
(one-half pound to fifty gallons Of wa
teri or arsenate of lead 1.-TWO pounds to
fifty gallons of water) while the cater
pillars are small will dispose Of them.
On the stone fruits. such as cherries,
peaches and plums, these poisons must
be used with caution. or they will in
jure the foliage. Arsenate Of lead is
safest and sticks better.
Either arsenate Of lead or paris
green should have the milk from two
or three pounds of lime added to each
so gallons of mixture to neutralize
their caustic action.
