COUNTRY'S CROPS
ARE VERY SHORT
Wheat Yield Will Be the Smallest ir
Many Years. Corn Is Also Be-
low the Average.


Heavy damage to the country's
cereal crop during August has forced
the production of wheat for 1916 to
Gil 100000 bushels, or 100000
bushels less than is calculated to be
necessary for domestic use. A carry
over of approximately 100000 bush
els of old wheat from last years
record crop, however, will make up
the deficiency and leave something
like 10O,000,00O bushels available to
supply the heavy demands of foreign
nations for American wheat.
Drouth has caused heavy shrink
age in the corn crop in Kansas and
Oklahoma, where many fields have
been cut for ensilage. The forecast
is for 2,710,000,000 bushels, or 22,-
100000 bushels less than last year.
Winter potatoes will be $4,000, 900
bushels short of last year and the
smallest crop since 1911. Oats, bar
ley, buckwheat, cotton, peaches and
apples also show a decrease because
of unfavorable season.
Hay and tobacco, together with
rice, are the only three crops which
are showing gain in 1916. The
tobacco yield will reach 1924 ,OO0,4
900 pounds, a gain of 27,OOO,0OO.
Hay has reached 86,200,000 tons, a
gain of 100000. Rice promises a
crop of 32,800,OOO bushels, gain of
100000 bushels on the record crop
harvested last year.

RICHMOND ELECTS
BLIND LEGISLATOR
WALTER MCDONALD WILL BE
YOUNGEST IN THE HOUSE.
ELECTION WAS SURPRISE.

Walter R. Mcdonald, who led the
ticket for the legislature in Richmond
county, probably will be the youngest
member in the next legislature, being
"a years of age. He will also be the
only blind legislator.
Young Mcdonald is a lawyer.
When he was a lad he was caught
taking watermelons from a farmers
field and somebody fired on him. The
farmer, dying some time later, de-
clared he did not fire the shot. How
ever, he was convicted of the act and
his case was pending in the supreme
court when death overlook him.
Young Mcdonald lost his eyesight
from the shot. He was then eight
years of age.
Friends became concerned as to
how the boy was to earn livelihood.
But Walter Mcdonald did not worry.
He astonished his family by announc-
ing that he intended to enter the law.
He did. He was first in the blind
academy at Macon; three years later
H6 WAS az ONSLGIOOhs d. HCAI az
Brown preparatory college in
Pennsylvania; then at the Georgia
state university, graduating in 1914.
Glow did | manage it at Athens?
Why, I arranged it with my room
mate to study aloud. / learned my
lessons while he was studying his,
Mr.. Mcdonald told an inquirer the
other day.
Walter Mcdonald began his law
practice in 1914 and was married in
1916. His wife, a bright little
woman, is going to Atlanta with him
when the legislature meets. She is
to study law there and seek admission
to the bar. She will be admitted, for
she is already well versed in the law
and is the greatest kind of help to her
husband in the practie of his profess
sion.
In the last primary ten men an
nounced for the legislature from
Richmond county. Mcdonald tied
up with no faction and got on no
ticket, but he and his wife went cam
paigning together fractional politics
were running high. Nobody thought
seriously of Mcdonald being factor
except Mr.. and Mrs. Mcdonald. When
the. votes were counted Mcdonald
was shown to have led the ticket. The
politicians marveled at the result, but
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcdonald merely look
ed upon it as reward for their energy

HERMAN'S
TAG JAP BABIES
AND SEND THEM HOME

Five to Fifteen a Month Born Here
and Carried Back to Native Land.
TOXIC, Japan.-Attention is be-
ing called here to the growing sue
cess of what is known as the "baby
carrier" business between the United
States and Japan. The essence of
the idea is the bringing to Japan of
japanese babies born in the United
States in order that they may be
brought up in this country and re-
ceive their education here.
Over 300 babies, it is estimated,
are born every year to Japanese fam
lies in California. Many families
are anxious to have their children
reared in Japan, but are financially
unable to bring the babies homer
Consequently hundreds of babies are
brought here by carriers.
On each trip the carrier-a Japan
csc man or Japanese man with his
wife-brings from five to fifteen
babies and distributes them in all
parts of the empire, usually at the
homes of the grandparents. Masumi
Yoshimi, one of those who conceived
the carrier project, says he does not
find the work troublesome.
"The only DANGER" he said, sis
mixing up the babies, but have
solved that by keeping an identified
ton card constantly tied around the
neck of each child"

The summer gum, being lighter, keeps

this light gum won't do in cold

Winter Weights Being Made.
All of which works out very well in
Chicago, where Ben and George are
in such great demand that the post
office officials have to send to Wash

fresh supply. The government bu-

along toward the end of September,
when the local Office calls for more,
it will get it's Bens and Georges with
their new heavyweight gum coats on.
But out in the rural districts the
law of supply and demand works less
smoothly and there is intense suffer
ing for Ben and George when the cold
snap comes. In these places supplies
of Bens and Georges are ordered at
longer intervals to last
three or four months sometimes-and
it frequently happens that October /
finds the supply still going strong.
Thus Ben and George are obliged to
enter upon their winter labors wear
ing their last summers garments,
which is tough on Ben and George, to
say nothing of the home folks who
have to do the licking.

quet and smoker to be held in Masonic
hall on Thursday evening.
The menu for the feast was put into
the hands of the Presbyterian ladies',
and then some tall husting was done
by both men and women in the two
days allowed for preparation.
At seven o'clock on Thursday eve
ming as the guests entered the hall, all
eyes were greeted with sight which
showed at once that everything was
complete. Long tables stretched the
length of the room, connecting at the
farther end. Candles adorned them
with pink shades, and the electric
chandeliers were shaded in pink.

banquet with Mayor Mcintyre, w. A

many and delicious viands served in
good order by the ladies, while Hutton's
orchestra dispensed sweet music, and
when all were in that comfortable
frame of mind derived from good
dinner, cigars and speakers were intro
duced.
Toastmaster Drouyor made things
lively by jokes and jolly speeches.

with set Of gold cuff links, and In

pathy and honors shown him during
his fourteen years residence here, not
overlooking the elaborate spread and
kind expressions of good will towards
