has had to do with the lettering Of
farming in the South has been the
Farm Demonstration Work of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture, and
there is no state in the South where
this influence has been felt to a great
er degree than in Georgia.
The Farm Demonstration idea was
conceived by the late DR.. S. A Knapp,
perhaps the greatest friend that has
ever come to the aid of the South
ern farmer.
Dr. Knapp conceived the idea of 60
ing direct to the farms of the farm
ers and asking them to conduct GER
tain farm operations as the depart
ment, through the county demonstra-
ton agent, who is usually some good,
practical farmer, will direct
The results of this work have pro
ven of such untold benefit to the far
mers that today It is considered the
| greatest work that the Department o.
/ Agriculture has ever done for the far
mers.
After the death of DR.. Knapp last
year, Bradford Knapp, son of DR..
Knapp, was placed at the head of the
work and he has made a most wor-
thy successor.
Since the beginning of the work in
the state of Georgia, Mr.. f. Gentry
has had charge as state agent He
has labored tirelessly for the success
of the work and the results show that
his work has not been in vain.
Associated with Mr.. Gentry there
are three very efficient district agents.
These are Mr.. j. G. Oliver of Macon;
". o. Cornelius. of Cedartown, and
s. w. Gown of Union City.
There are now more than Is local
demonstration agents representing as
many counties i'll Georgia, while there

.ONCE AGAIN IS
FINE AND WELL
Former Patient of Electro-M edical Doc.
tors Gives Added Praise to
New Treatment.

Many months ago Mr.. John F. Rauch,
Of 7J3 Lichtcld street, Pittsburgh,
made public statement in praise Of
The modern treatment of the Electro
Medical Doctors, for these specialists
at that time gave him health after
years Of suffering.
Recently Mr.. Rauch became afflicted
again and returned to The Elecrro-Mcd-
ical Doctors for lrCatment and makes
the following statement, which IS self
explanatory.
Pittsburgh. Pa, NCv. LIST, 1916.
",ro Whom 1t May Concern.
Five years ago, rs in my former
statement 10 tho public, ! received a
blow on the head which left ME in a
srriOuS condition. Al that time ! went
to The Elcciro-MCdical Doctors and
took treatment and soon recovered.

so much that ! could hardly walk and

Those pains and aches are gone and
now Use my limbs good again and the

(SiGneW JOHN F. RAUCH.
The two ailments of Mr.. Rauch were
distinctly different ones. The first
cause of his trouble being the blow on

statement, treated with The Electro

ments gi"on in praise OF the modern
Scientific treatment of these specialists
and shows what is being daily accom-
plished by the Electro-Medical Doctors.

Consultation, advice and e1amlna-
ton, including the X-Ray, Cnemlcal
ANALYSIS and Blood Pressure Test at
one dollar. Such IS the oter maze oy
the Electro-Medical Doctors to the SICK
and ailing who call upon them durlng
the next seven days.
The Electro-Medical Doctors object
in making this. offer is to give every
sufferer a chance TO know what can De
done with the wonderful new Electro
Medical System of Treatment IN MS OF
her own particular case.
The examination Is the most import
ant part of the proceeding when a SICK
person calls upon the Electro-Meuca
Doctors. Whilst it costs but one dollar
to those calling at the Institute during
the next seven days, yet 1t is as accu-
rate as if the patient had paid the reg
ular $1,000 examination charges IN full.
The most delicate man. woman OF
child need have no fear either OF the
S-Ray or of the electrical treatments,
as they are harmless, painless and safe
in the hands of experts.
The diagnostic and treatment appa-
ratuses used by the Electro-Medical
Doctors are many. The machines-de-
licate and intricate medical devices
find the cause Of the trouble with
astounding accuracy. The Eleclro-Med-
ical Doctors daily prove the fact that
science has so modified and so tanned
electricity that. the weakest child or
invalid can stand its force without the
slightest fear or pain. The forces Of
electricity arc sent through the body
into every tissue and fibre without the
patient experiencing the slightest SEN
sation, except relief. One apparatus
sprays electricity through the body, abb
sorbing fibrous and decayed tissue,
there being thousands of volts going
through the body-yet the patient only
experiences sensation as of standing
in a ray Of sunshine. After the treat
ment the patient feels like a normal
healthy person on an ideal spring
morning. No garments need be re-

moved and no embarrassment is en-
gendered.
Modern electrical treatments, have
no comparison with the old crude cleo
trio batteries and shocking currents.
At the Electro-Medical Institute the
current that lights homes and runs
street cars is used and is harnessed to
the wonderful machines by which
every jar and jerk is removed and it is
then sent through the body as softly,
smoothly and pleasantly as ray of
sunshine. At this institute such treat
ments are given as the X-Ray, high
frequency, D'Arsonyal. Dia-lhermic,
Oudin, Tesla, Static, Induced, Morton
Wave Current, Positive and Negative
Breeze, Galvanic, Faradic, SinuSodal,
Combined Galvanic and Faradic, Auto
Induction, Auto Condensation and
other currents, also Migratory treat
ment. Ultra Violet Ray, Actinic light
treatment, Ozone Inhalation, medicatcd
inhalation, in addition TO many other
treatments, the cost Of which is so
moderate that it is no longer the priv
ilege of the rich only, but can readily
be afforded by the poor and those in
moderate circumstances as well.
While there is no sensation of The
high voltage current going through The
body, the patient may become aware
of the force in his system by the doc
tor touching him and drawing out a
string Of sparks from any parI of the
body or igniting Il sheet Of paper from
the body-or even illuminating an cleo
trio globe in his hand--all the time tine
patient feels nothing.
The effects of electrical treatments
are uarrclousIy rapid. Relief can be
given in one or more treatments whilst
often cure is accomplished in the
milder cases in the same time.
No force is SO uniformly potent in
relieving and eliminating human ills
as electricity in the hands of experts
who understand The use of the cur.
rents. 1t is the only remedy upon which
all human beings c@n rely. 1t is posi-
tive and cetain in action, If you value
