So many pinched faces, dulled eyes

LAYING LAW FOR
SISTER SKEETER
MORE CLEANUP ADVICE FOR
THOSE WHO HAVE TO SUFFER
FROM MOSQUITOES is GIVEN BY
SANITARY DEPARTMENT.

The mosquito we have with us much
ly. Their presence is a topic of gen.
eral conversation. The continual rains
have caused them to multiply with
great rapidity, and the worries of the
sufferers from this pest have increas-
ed.
The advice of Sanitary Inspector
Bussey is to get rid of old tin cans
about the yards, by driving a hole
through the bottom after the cans are
used to prevent their holding water.
There is entirely too much standing
water everywhere. That makes mos
quitoes.
To have a general cleaning, remove
the weeds from the premises, rake
them up and place them where the
sanitary wagons can get them would
help wonderfully, according to SAM
tary Inspector Bussey.
He is making a city-wide campaign
in order to have the work of removing
the weeds accomplished with eXpedi-
ency, as the longer the weeks remain
for shelter and breeding placs for the
mosquitoes, the less possible it will
be to cope with them.

FALL TRADE FOR coRDELE

P. B. Gleaton returned last week
from Baltimore and other markets in

stock of fall and winter merchandise,
shipments of which have already be-
gun arriving
81 am expecting prosperous fall
and winter" Mr.. Gleaton said" and
have purchased my stock for these
seasons accordingly. Notwithstanding
the heavy damage done to the crop by
the recent rains, there will be a fair
crop of cotton produced in Crisp and
surrounding section this year, and ev-
cry indication points to good prices for
the staple. 1t is evident that the price
will hardly fall below twelve or thir-
teen cents and it appears probable
that even better prices will be secured
for a portion of the crop. l believe
that the merchants of Cordele will ex-
perience the best trade this fall they
have ever had"
Mr.. Gleaton purchased a splendid
stock and bought for cash at figures
that will allow him to place the goods
on the market at very reasonable
prices.
