REPEAL Of TAX
LAW SOUGHT
JOINT COMMITTEE TO MAKE A
THOROUGH EXAMINATION AND
PROBE OF LAW.

Atlanta, July 1S-With a view OF
modifying the tax equalization law OF
1918, Senators Lawrence, of the First
district, Stovall of the Thirtieth and
Walker of the Twentieth, were ap-
pointed from the Senate today to act
with four members from the House as
a Joint committee to make a thorough
investigation and examination OF the
tax law.
The appointment of the committee
followed Senator Walkers resolution
TO that effect. The resolution was
introduced for the purpose OF saving
the law. Supporters of the bill to
repeal the tax equalization law again
postponed their attempt to take the
bill out of it's regular place in the
House calendar and have it made a
special order.
The Ways and Means committee
has already made an adverse report
on one bill to repeal this tax equal
zation law, and so it's supporters are
evidently trying to get the bill before
a committee which they think will give
a favorable report, in which case the
repeal bill will take it's usual course
on the House calendar.

opportunities that are constantly
knocking at our doors, in few years
we will not only be self-sustaining, but
we will lead all other Southern states
in the production of cattle and hogs
by crossing our native stock with bet
ter and larger blooded stock. Georgia
has the cotton mania, let Florida in
oculate herself with the stock mania,
even if we have to take the serum by
compulsion; we will not catch the
germ, the prevalent epidemic in Geor
gia. Several caught it at Moultrie
that attended from Florida. Let it
spread to every farmer in the whole
state, and our future is assured.
From Moultrie we motored to the
thriving little town of Ashburn, and
thence to Cordele the magic city

knew when it was owned by Gov. JOS
eph E. Brown of war fame, now a
handsome city, great railroad center,

Through pleasant scenes and stormy

T'is hard to part from loved ones

Say not good-night-give little warn

But in brighter cline, bid each

Preventing Forest Fires
J. B. BERRY, Prof. Forestry, State
College OF Agriculture.)

J. Is. BERRY, 1TOI. roIeStIy, OIoCo
College OF Agriculture.)
The exceedingly dry spring, togeth-
er with the ignorance and careless
ness of people in the forest, is respon-
sible for the great fire damage this
year. Everywhere throughout south
and central Georgia, the air IS hazy
with the smoke from many small for
est fires. Thousands of acres of tur-
pentine orchards have been burned
over with corresponding loss in trees,
cups and equipment. In the swamps
the fire has eaten down through the
humus often times many feet to the
mineral soil, destroying in few days
the slow accumulation of many years
of fertility.
Forest fires are not necessary evil!
They may be prevented even during
such an extremely dry season as this
Many fires originate from live clnders
from a railroad or logging locomotive
or from a steam skidder A good spark
arrester will take care of the situation;
only it is necessary that it be properly
fitted to the smoke stack and that the
engineer be held responsible for any
holes punched in it. Many other fires
originate from deserted camp-fires,
cigarette and cigar stubs, live Goals
from a pipe and matches which are
thrown away without being fully extin-
guished. Surely a hunter or fisherman
should have enough gratitude for the
privilege of using another mans land
To do all he can to prevent fires on
the property Still other fires orig
mate in the neighborhood of farms,
esnecially where fire is used in clear
ing land. Naturally, this work should
he deferred until a safer season.
All forest fires have small begin
oinps. In the history of every fire,
there was time when it might nave
heen controlled with one pail OF
water or one shovel Of sand. If ev-
ery one did his duty at such time
there would be no forest fires. There
are. however, reasonable precautions
which every forest owner should take.
fire line consisting of three or four
burrows may be ploWed about wood
LOT or. in the case of larger tract,
a number of lines may be run through
the forest at right angles to each 9th
er. Even a double furrow cutting
down to mineral soil will effectively
check a ground fire. After fire has
started it is often possible to get out
with a small pillow and prevent its
further extension. In the case OF tur-
pentine orchard the needles and other
inf1ammable material should be kept
raked away from the trees at all sea
sons of the year. Along railroads there
should be a double fire lane on each
side of the right of way, the first at a
distance of. so to so feet from the
track, the second at distince of 100
to $50 feet. If such simple preventa-
tive measures are taken, and every
one extinguishes the small fires, there
will be no great loss through the agen-
CIV of fire in the forest.

BY JUDGE A. j. CONE, Raleigh, Fla.
1t was myself and frau, me son and
his'en and grandson who motore1
from Gainesville Fla, to Moultrie, Ca,
to see the country, roads, crops and
have a general joy-ride of which we
have read and heard so much lately.
The exit from Florida was anything
but joy ride, the recent workings OF
Their roads together with the rains
and the passings of autos gone be-
fore us, would have taxed the engin-
ering skill of black snake to keep
in the ruts; and we came near mental
and automobile prostration ere we
reached the Georgia line.
In our distress and perplexities,
slowly we neared habitation, the
proprietor sitting at ease in the YER
anda, his Rachel" standing by with
a sun bonnet in her hands trying to
lower the thermometer in his organ
ism. With our faithful Cadillac at a
snairs pace, quite up to the axle in
mud and water, putting and splitting,
l, thinking we were gearing the Geor-
gia line, essayed amidst the tumult to
gain some information, and asked the
weary one, what states is this?'
Getting his answer, remarked, "ev-
identity in Florida"
"Why SOP" said one of the party,
what answer did he maker"
He said he did not know.
Soon we crossed river and then
we had good hard roads to Quitman,
which me made in good time. We
spent the first night in that fine little
city, and early went on to Moultrie,
where we saw the sights; truly it was
a revelation of hogs weighing 800
pounds, bulls 2400, and it made us
think of home "Swee Home" with a
nervous tremor up and down The spin

we remembered that it was our native
heath; but it was an eye-open to all
Floridistas and will adown to the up
building of similar enterprises in our
state.
Already Gainesville has taken the
initial step to organize packing house
there. We have natural advantages
here that Georgia has not, and if our
people will only awake and seize the

nANURICl"
I; THE NEWEST ~
DISCOVERY in CHEMISTRY

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For those
easily recognized symptoms of infam-
nation - as backache, scalding urine
and frequent urination, as well as sedi-
ment in the urine, or: if uric acid in the
blood has caused rheumatism, it is
simply wonderful how surely vAnuric"
acts The best of results are always
obtained in cases of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and govt, and
invariably the pains and stiffness which
so frequently and persistently accom-
pany the disease rapidly disappear.
I Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for 3 5O-cent package of
HAnuric," manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write Doctor Pierce for a free
sample. If you suspect kidney or blad-
der trouble, send him sample of your
water and describe symptoms. Doctor
Piefce's chemist will examine it, then
Dr.. Pierce will report to you, without
fee or charge. = >: r.
sNoTE: French scientists affirm that
sAnuric" is thirty seven times more
active than lithia in eliminating uric
acid, and is q harmless but reliable
chemical compound that may be safely,
given to children, but should be used
only by grown-ups who actually wish to
restore their kidneys to perfect health,
by conscientiously using one box-or
more in extreme cases-as "Anuric"
(thanks to Doctor Pierce's achievement)
is by far the most perfect kidney and
bladder corrector obtainable.
