DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES
 ID BE HERE OCT. s

State Chairman McGonigle of the Arizona democratic party has mo- tifed w. M. Hughes of Williams that several democratic state can , didates will be in Williams, Fri day, Oct. 6 for the purpose of ad- dressing Williams voters and to secure a suitable hall for them. This will probably be the only chance Williams voters will have to listen to the state candidates of 7 the democratic party. The oppor- tunity should not be missed. They are all earnest men of ability and they represent good cause. They are entitled to respectful hearing .and good house. They will all honor our noble president and our sturdy governor, both real demo- crats who carry out the principles of democracy in their respective administrations. Speakers have been in Williams who have filled the air with abuse of these pro- gressive executives. Let us hear from their friends.

CHILD WELFARE
A Strong Address By F. E.
 McFadden

The News is pleased to pre- sent it's readers with extracts from a strong address read be- fore the Educational Depart ment of the Woman's Club of Williams Tues lay p. m. Sept. 26. The News regrets that the address can not be presented in full, but lack of space this week forbids.
 Prof. McFadden said:
 We hear much about the inn portance of various crops but I want to call your attention to one super important crop, the boy and girl crop. It constitutes the hope of advancing civiliza- tion because only thru our boys and girls can continuity of social purposes be achieved.
 This generation of adults is responsible for the progress of the next generation, for the up- ward or downward tendency of the next generation will depend on how this generation fits the next one to solve it's unso,ved problems and to complete it's un- finished tasks. Childhood is the time of preparation for future social service.
 Biologically, the child is the oldest member of society. Each one of is a living testimonial to the development of man from the single celled protozoa thru all intermediary stages, piscian, amphibian, anthropoid, to his present ithnoid stage of biolog- ical attainment. The young child represents a stage in bio logical development ages remote. The child comes to us the most helpless of all young animals. But in his helplesspnss lies his possibility of future development.
 Bee ause the young child is the most helpless of all animals young, he is the richest in possi- bilities of development. At birth his nervous system is large ly unorganized, he is educable, he is capable of learning new modes of response to surround ings.
 Environmental influences affect both body and mind and thus determine physique and mental ity. Because the child is plastic of body and mind and because he is so initiative, environment is fundamental. A community in which disease was epidemic would not constitute a suitable environment for the rearing of children. So long as a single child in the community is infect ed with contagious disease, our own children are not safe. A prominent American citizen once said that, "Our country will not be a good place for any of us to live in until it becomes a reasonably good place for all of us to live in. We cannot build a barrier of exclusiveness about ourselves and exclude disease germs. We are each our brothers keeper, in matters of child welfare as we'll as commun- ity hygiene.
 Any child will be handicapped for the fullest and highest de- velopment so long as any other child with whom he may come in contact has not been properly reared. Hence we must cooper ate in every way to eradicate poverty, ignorance, immortality, crime in short all antisocial practices in order to perfect the environment for all children.
 The organization of a Parent Teachers Association would give all an opportunity to meet and discuss such vital subjects as,

She certainly made no converts and will make none, nor will any of the advocates of the policy of holding MT. Wilson or his party solely responsible for the failure of Congress to enact legis- lation leading to the adoption of the Susan B. Anthony Amend ment. The position of the Wom- ans Party advocates is too illogi- cal to commend itself to the women voters of the suffrage sta tes.

this crop, as they do not propagate
during the cool nights of September
and October.
If the following instructions are
carried out you can easily produce
from 100 to 200 bushels per acre on
good land. The proper way to plant
and cultivate them, for instance; after
grain crops have been harvested the
stubble land is ideal for growing these
potatoes. The ground should be first
roughly broken with a to 4-inch
scooter, narrowed thoroughly with
disk harrow, and few days after this
ground should be turned deep with
two-horse pillow; narrowed thoroughly
and either rolled or dragged. Every
5 and days weeder or peg-toothed
harrow should be run over the ground
to keep il open and moisture circulat-
ing in the seed and. Any time after
the 5th of July to the goth of August
for middle and south Georgia is the
proper time to plant as it requires
about 80 days for them to mature

DANIELS, THE SAILOR.

Josephus Daniels, the Tar Heel edi-
tor, has been the most prominent tar
get in President Wilson's cabinet for
criticism. Newspapers have lombard
ed him severely, mainly those of the
anti-administration stripe.
1t can usually be said that when a
man is doing something, he is more
likely to be "cussed." Thus it seems
with Daniels, the Southern secretary
OF the navy.
And in this connection few saviors
of the country living in the South, like
the complexion of Teddy Roosevelt's
candidacy. Deliver us from them--and
Teddy.
A striking defense of Secretary Dan
lels was made in Atlanta Saturday
night by Judge Francis Winston, ex-
governor of North Carolina, when he
spoke at the annual banquet of the
North Carolina society. Judge Win
ston said:
"Josephus Daniels may not know
whether the sailor sleeps in the span
ker room, topping oft or not, or where
to locate the mizzen top brace, but
Joe Daniels don't scare and Joe Dan
iels stands for the fair minded Ameri-
cans and for the protection of their
pocketbooks against unwarranted ia
vor and the exorbitant bids of the ar
NOR plate people"

HOW TO PREPARE,
PLANT AND CULTI-
VATE IRISH POTATOES

Fall potatoes: One of the most prof
liable crops, and one of the most use
full that can be possibly be planted on
cur Southern farms, is the fall crop
of Irish Potatoes.
Many people who have tried plant
ing this crop continue to do so, and
the interest is increasing. This crop is
different from the spring crop, will
keep almost indefinitely as they can be
housed in barrels; in an ordinary cell
lar, barn or any other dry cool place,
and are convenient for use throughout
the entire winter, and will keep per-
fectly until June and July, when they
are ready for seed that a perfect stand
can be secured from. Therefore, this,
the Lookout Mountain Potato has been
grown year after year strictly for fall
planting, and the seed harvested in
October and November are best for
fall planting.
A perfect stand can be secured from
this seed as they are sprouted by June,
ready to terminate Immediately after
being painted in the ground. They
will not make in the spring, as their
habits have been completely changed
owing to the continued fall planting
for more than 22O years.
The Lookout Mountain Potato is
sound and firm, there never being any
black hearts among them; also free
from scab. They are the best to keep,
heavy yielders, are mealy and the
very best of table potatoes.
One of the principal reasons why
people should plant this potato ex-
tensively is because they can be cul-
tiyated at time when labor is usually
plentiful, and not much else to do on
the farm. Furthermore, their keeping
quality is another reason why you
should plant them and you are never
bothered with the dreaded bugs with

THE FOURTH ENTRANT.

The sleepy-eyed Georgian who anti
cipated a quiet year in politics for the
state had best rub, and turn over, for
the campaign is on.
The announcement of Joseph E. Pot
tie, of Milledgeville, as candidate,
carried in the Sunday morning papers
of the state, did not create much sur
prise, as many people confidently ex-
pected the announcement. Mr.. Pot
ties entrance brings the list to four,
these being Governor Harris, Dr. L. G.
Hardman and Hugh NJ. Dorsey.
Mr.. Politics. announcement certain
ly adds interest and zest to the cam
paign. He is strong and virile man,
exceptionally magnetic in his speech
and thoroughly at home on the
stump" His first challenge came in
the form of an invitation to each of
the other candidates to enter the de-
batting arena.
The voice of the candidate and poll
tician will ring from one end of the
state to the other, and before Septem-
Der 18th, it is likely that vast ma
jurity of the citizens of Georgia will
have seen personally each of the four
candidates.
The new situation may be commend
allie and to the best interests of the
state. In any event, it is a condition
which the people seem to enjoy.

Board Tells How To Kill
Truck Crop Pests Cheaply

Atlanta, Ga.-Truck farming and
home gardening in Georgia are re-
ceiving more attention each year and
steadily growing in Importance. Mel
ons, cabbages, peas, onions and succu-
lent homegrown vegetables will add
to the prosperity of thousands of Geor-
gia families, both in country and town,
this spring and summer. But inciden-
tally these crops also will be the
means OF supporting several million
bugs, spiders, worms, beetles and 9th
er pests, in a life Of sinful ease at the
expense of the truck farmer, unless
he declares war on them in time and
applies the preventive measures recon-
mended by the State Board of Ento-
mology.
State EntOmologist E. Lee Worsham
has had prepared by his department
a bulletin in the form of an illustrated
booklet on truck crop pests in Geor-
gia, which the board will be glad to
send to any Georgia farmer or gar
dener on request.
He also offers the following prac-
teal directions for use this spring,
which show that while insect pests
are an important factor to contend
with in truck farming, they can be
controlled with few exceptions at COM
paratively little expense.
Root knot, which affects melons,
celery, beans, beets, cucumbers, pota-
toes and similar crops, may be con-
trolled by fumigating the seed beds
with carbon bisulphide, the process be-
ing to punch nine or ten holes per
square yard, about a foot deep, and
pour into each about tablespoonful
of carbon bfsulphide, filling the open
ing quickly and tramping under foot.
Another method is to sterilize the
earth with formalin, saturating the
soil thoroughly with one part of for
malin to 100 gallons of water, as deep
as the roots will penetrate.
The harlequin cabbage bug, so call
ed. because of his black, orange and
yellow markings, can be controlled
only by contact poisons. Thoroughly
cleaning and burning up all trash dur
ing the winter will destroy many hi
bernating adults Early planted mus
tard makes a good trap plant. Pure
kerosene should be used when the
trap plants become thoroughly infect
ed, and a fifteen per cent kerosene
emulsion can be applied with success
on growing crops, especially in the
immature stages of the insect
The squash bug, which is a little
over half an inch long, dark brown
above and yellowish beneath, passes
the winter under rubbish and comes
forth in the spring to deposit con
spicuous brown colored eggs. All rub

THE TOLL OF SUMTER.

The toll of Americas and Sumter
county since the new prohibition law
became effective is one drunk and
enc raid. The latter episode proved 4
blank haul.
The grand jury is in session, and
they will investigate conditions in the
city and county. If they find instances
of violations of the law, the people
may rest assured that this body will
perform their duty And after indict-
ments are returned, the people expect
the courts to perform their legal
duty.
The courts over Georgia are making
examples of violations of the new pro-
hibition law by giving straight-out
changing sentences. This punish
ment has its commendable features,
with direct tendency to break up the
traffic.
A blind tiger" is one of the most
contemplate forms in which the law is
violated. With generalization and am
pie deliberation, the blind tiger" sets
out to violate the law.

bish should be burned in the winter.
Young newly Matched bugs may be
killed with a spray of ten per cent
kerosene emulsion or BLACK Leaf
40"
Plant lice, or aphids, a group of in
sects which attack great variety Of
crops, including melons and cabbages,
may be generally controlled effectively
by spraying with BLACK Leaf 49,"
nicotine tobacco product, using one
part to from 300 to 500 gallons Of
water Soap solution at the rate of
one pound to three or four gallons of
water is also a reliable remedy. The
spray should be applied as mist and
with considerable force.
The mole cricket, one Of the most
serious truck farm pests, is best han
died in a given area by blowing up
the breeding areas two or three times
during the months of April, May and
June Banding individual plants with
paper or tin cylinder affords absolute
protection Poisoned bats made Of
cotton seed meal with arsenate Of lead
or Paris green have proven beneficial.
The cut worm is nocturnal marau
der which few gardens have escaped.
| Preventive measures are best, and as
grass is their natural food, garden and
sod land to be planted in truck
should be plowed and thoroughly pull
verified during the winter before plant
ing. Trapping them may be accom-
plished by boards under which they
crawl, or by punching holes in the
soil near each plant with stick. Poi
soned bats may also be used with
success. Full directions will be CIV
en- by the State Board Of Entomology
on request.
The web worm, comparatively
new pest in Georgia, feeds on the
crown or at the base Of the leaves
of turnips, cabbages and beets. Spray
ing with arsenate of lead is effective,
with two pounds to fifty gallons Of
water.
Cabbage worms and loopers should
be fought by busting cabbage plants
with arsenate of lead or Paris green
mixed with air slaked lime. The arse
nate of lead should be used at the rate
Of one pound to five pounds Of air
slaked lime and Paris green at the
rate of one ounce to one pound Of
lime. 1t is best applied by shaking
thin cloth sack directly over the
plants, coating the leaves uniformly
with poison dust.
Arsenical sprays are also effective
against cucumber beetles and flea bee
ties which affect a great variety of
plants. The State Board Of Entomol-
ogy will furnish full free additional
formulas and instructions to any one
who will write for them.
