full livestock raising in the state.
The time designated for this place
is 100 to 500 p. m. Every farmer
in this section should turn out and
see the purebred and registered beef
and dairy cattle, several breeds of
hogs, Predecessor horses. They will
also see very interesting exhibits of
feedstuffs that is profitable to grow
in Georgia. What the speakers will
say will be right to the point 1t is
not to be an occasion for flowery or
atory, political hastings nor exchange
of compliments, but straight-from-
the-shoulder talk about live stock and
nothing else.
1t is also announced that literature
will be distributed free and all the
time that the experts have at place
will be gladly given to answering
questions and giving information of
various kinds.
Wherever a sufficient number of
farmers in any section express a de-
sire to have some purebred live stock,
a movement will be set afoot to or
ganize the farmers for cooperative
buying, SO as to save cost. This has
already been done in several com
in Georgia with satisfaction.
Those who did not get out to the
State Fair will have one of the most
instructive and interesting parts of
the exhibits brought to them, if they
will only turn out to see the live
stock and feedstuff display.
This section should not fail to
profit by this meeting and make use
of the information to be obtained, to
get into the live stock business on
bigger scale. Where live stock plays
a prominent part in farming, there
will be found the most fertile lands
and the most successful farmers.

Prohibition Discussed
By Judge George
Says Better Classes Cause
of Non Enforcement

Cordele, November 16 SD
perior court of Crisp county con-
vened in regular session Monday,
Judge W. F. George presiding.
The greater part of Judge
Georges charge to the grand
jury dealt with the prohibition
law and its enforcement.
Nor ATTEMPT To CRITICIZE.
Though he declared from his
observation of four years on the
bench, that there was not the
same wholesome disposition on
the part of juries and officers to
enforce the laws designed to con-
troll the liquor traffic as there
was when the local option law
was in force, ne asserted that
his remarks were not an attempt
to criticize the present prohibit
ton law, nor the more drastic
laws now before the legislature.
INDIFFERENCE OF BETTER CLASS
He attributed as the cause of
lax enforcement of the law a
prevalent luke-warmness on the
part of the better class of citizens
toward bringing about such law
enforcement, and a growing
sentiment among the less law
fully inclined element to bring
disrespect upon such laws.
In view of such condition,
declared Judge George it would
require the continued and CON-
bined efforts of the lawful
element of the people of the
state to cause the success of the
more drastic laws touching pro-
hibition that have just recently
been enacted. A man who would
oppose the enforcement of the
prohibition law should not be al
to sit in a trial jury, virtually
said Judge George, and in effect
he added that except in very un-
usual cases all violators Of the
prohibition law should be on the
changing.

A hundred dollars worth of paint
would greatly improve many of the
small buildings around the city and
those who are idle should be given
the opportunity of using it. 1t isn't
necessary always TO have an artist to
do this work. A clean and neat look
ing city is better city in which to
live and every one should be inter
ested in presenting the best front. 1t
is individual effort that counts. Ev-
cry man and every woman should
make it a special duty to see that
his house is put in the best appear
ing condition that is possible and that
both back and front yards are thor
oughly cleaned of all rubbish. Clean
ing up is not only duty but it should
he pleasure. One filthy yard can
produce millions of disease breeding
flies that will soon be infesting the
city. 1t is little use for one man to
clean his yard and his neighbor 70
permit things to pile up. To this end
the Herald trusts that every Duran
goite will lose no time, if they have
not already done so, in putting their
premises in shipshape. 1t is not alone
for the tourists and prospective set
tiers that we should do this, but To-
cal pride and desire to keep away
disease. Should there be any who are
lacking in this respect, then it is the
duty of the city officials to enforce
the ordinances to the letter.

lie c.a nsver get enough. The men
in the manufactures in Great Br-
tian refuse to be stirred by the ap-
peals of Lord Kitchner or anybody
else. When they are told that their
kindred are in the trenches, and that
the movements of the army are delay
ed for lack of ammunition, they turn
deaf ear to the cry; then demand
more wages and shorter hours; and
then demand more liquors to drink.
There is no longer any conceal
ment in regard to conditions in Great
Britain. The men who work on the
docks at Liverpool permit ships to re-
main anchored with cargoes unlaoded.
They do this when they are told from
all sources that the country is in
danger and that the contents of the
ships are needed for the carrying on

Settling for old Scores.
1t seems that the forkers are try
ing to settle up for old scores, and
that they are striking at their coun-
try when it Is in danger. Some of
the workers demand higher wages
for the last two days of the week be
cause of the week end habit of the
British. The London newspapers make
known the fact that that British work
ers waste thirty to forty per cent
of their time because of drink.
Schedules have been printed fur
nished by the factories showing how
the men are absent from their work
onr account of Intoxicating liquors.
Those in charge of the government
freely admit that drink is prolong-
ing the war. They say that if every
man would go to work to supply the
armies with ammunition the war wauld
be brought to a speedy conclusion.

To set an example to the work
ers in the shops, King George of
England has intimated that he will
Danish alcoholic liquors from his
household.
Lord Kitchner has followed suit
and has not only intimated but pro-
claimed his purpose. The ministers of
the gospel are once again threat
ening to quit drinking Intoxicating
liquors. To an American this sounds
strange, but the people of our coun-
try did not realize how many clergy
men of Great Britain used intoxicat-
ing liquors. But the preachers are
threatening to quit.
1t is also suggested that heads of
big establishments Danish liquor en-
tirely from their tables until after
the war. The working man is not
satisfied with this because he knows
liquors might be continued in the
fashionable clubs. But the clubs are
promising to quit Still the shop work

Oh, that the people of Colorado

are the only ones elected to office;
that misgovernment is ther uling pas
