Negro Farmers Study Boil Weevil
Conditions.

A party Of about thirty-fve ne
gro farmers from Laurens, Chat
ham, Burke and several other coun
ties Of eastern Georgia spent same
time in Albany this morning while
en- route from Townsville to Cor
dele, whence they will return their
homes.
Accompanied by several negro
farm demonstrators who work un-
der direction Of the State College
Of agriculture, aud are supported
by both state and federal funds,
these colored farmers have been
studying boil weevil conditions il
this part Of the state. The pest is
reaching their section this year, land
the crops Of 1913 and tile succeed
ing wears must re made under boil
weevil conditions.
These colored farmers were en-
couraged TO make this trip of in
spection that they might see how
white and colored farmers in South
west Georgia have met the new con-
ditions with crop diversi6cation.
They have observed how cotton
fields, still green and growing, have
not A single cotton bloom and abso-
lutely no prospect of top crop.
And they have also found that as
the result of agricultural prepared
ness made possible through an ex-
tensive campaign Of education the
new conditions have brought great
er prosperity instead of the disaster
which was so greatly feared.
The negro farmers are expected
to 90 back to their communities and
tell their neighbors what they have
seen and learned. They will be in
a sense missionaries, and will have
splendid opportunities for ueful-
ness.
The boil weevil had reached Lau-
rens county several weeks ago, mem
bers of the party report, and is ex-
pected to spread to counties much
nearer the South Carolina line be-
fore cold weather drives his numer-
Gus tribe into Information.

LETTER POSTAGE WILL
BE THREE CENTS

After more than a fortnight OF
work, the conferees upon the war
revenue bill made their report upon
the measure Saturday
The bill has been increased to
nearly 50. 700. 100000.
The eliief changes made are in
the war excess profits taxes and the
increased postal rates on first and
second class matter,
AS agreed to the excess profits
tax is a modification of the senate
bill. The maximum and minimum
exemptions were changed from 6'to
10 per cent to Z TO 8 per cent. The
graduated rate was altered from
percentage Of the deduction to per-
centage Of the profits upon the in
vested capital.
Exemptions from the tax are
compensation of fees received by
state or federal officers or employees
Of corporations and individuals al
ready exempted under the act OF
September 3, 1916, and income de-
rived from the business of life,
health and accident insurance, COM
bined in one policy issued on the
weekly payment premium plan.
Corporations, partnerships and
individuals without capital or only
Il nominal capital are charged, in
the case Of individuals and partner
ships, fat rate Of 8 per cent on
net profits above $4,000, and in the
case of a, corporation the same tax
on net profits above $4,000.
One cent was added to ordinary
letter postage, SO that letters other
than those sent from or to Ameri.
can soldiers would cost three cents
This is supposed to 6 into effect g
days after the passage Of the act.
The second-class postal rate ha
been changed to a zone system
which begins July, 1918. Readins
matter will be charged between tina
date and July 1, 1919, ID cents
per pound or fraction. After July
1, 1919, the rate will be 1 10 cents
per pound. II the space devoted
to advertising matter does not ex-
exceed 5 per cent Of the total space
of a magazine, the rate will be the
same as if Oh reading matter. But
otherwise the zone system comes
into effect. This is a complicated
scale, which eventually goes to 10
cents in the eighth zone after July
II, 1921

By Southern Girls

The Pittsburgh Leader carries the
following chat from a soldier at
Camp Hancock at Augusta, that in
large head Tires announces South
ern Girls Attract Boys, and is re-
produced because of the excellence
of the viewpoint.
There are no Southern bellies
who will make al acquaintance
with the soldiers at sight, attracted
by the glamour Of the uniform here
unless they are properly introduced.
After the formaiity has been COM
piled with, there are no girls any
where who are. willing to do so
much for the Liberty boys as these
Southern beauties.
Crowds Of Pittsburgh boys who
commenced getting familiar"
have been cleverly rebuffed by tho
subtle tactics Of these Georgia las
sizes Many acc uaintances have
not been formed yet, but agencies
are at work which will result in the
Keystone soldiers knowing the
pride Of Augusta. It is not as
common as it was in Sehenley
Park, even though 5000 soldiers
are quartered here and the supply
Of girls much less, 10 see, girls ac-
companying the boys in Khaki.
The fact is that the sight Of
soldier with girl is very rare.
The girls do not shun the men.

to men in uniforms, The card
pinned on the soldiers blouse en-

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot B
Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused
by an infalned condition of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafnessis the result. I'm
less the inflammation can he reduced and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases of defaness are caused by
catarrh, which is is an inffamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces. Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on
the mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that
