CHECKING THE FLIES.

County Demonstration Agent j. A.
Johnson has been stressing of late the
importance of killing flies while killing
means most. In early spring it is
easy to make the work of destruc-
ton count, for a fly destroyed then
means millions of, them out OF the
way. 1t is not just the proper thing
to laugh and say that there will al
ways be as many flies as there is
room.
Only few flies are left after a
hard winter like that just passing.
The severe cold gets large number
of them. If we take the trouble to
destroy those left in the house in
warm, places where they escape the
cola, II makes WOIluS VI ullCiOiNO
in the spring.
Mir. Johnson is sending out three
page letter to two hundred citizens
of his county stressing early destruc-
ton of the flies that have come
through the winter His work must
be worth while, for who is it that
does not now appreciate the impor-
lance of controlling this disease
spreading creature? Get the fly ear
ly and save millions of them few
weeks hence when the warmth per-
mits rapid breeding.
The health of the household is safe
guarded by the care exercised in the
destruction Of flies and their breed
ing places This is matter of such
importance as to require more than
passing note.

MORE FOOD CROPS.

We can never say it too often that
thCie is a worlds scarcity of food pro-
Cucts that is going to increase through
another year. The fact that food por-
Ducts gamblers have seized upon the
scarcity already as an excuse for rob
ling and plundering the pockets OF
lard working people is a warning the
Georgia farmer ought to note with
lated breath
T. we have any sort of correct idea
as % the real condition of affairs, we
s&Culd advise now about the vast i'm
roc .ance of raising food products this
year. Last year The Dispatch told
ihc farmer to make all the cotton pos
sihle. Our output was over thousand
Lalcs more than that of the previous
ycac in spite sof adverse weather con-
ttitionss~-~ ou'@ae
This year there is a difference which
sic Id be noted Cotton is no crop
Of value as compared with the food
re iucts. When a porker brings Is
cents a pound on foot, it is time to
abandon cotton, even at twenty cents
a pound. No farmer can make cotton
al lis very highest price and get away
with his "clean up" when it has to go
back into food products at the pre-
yaiiing prices.
The worlds scarcity of food sup
Plies is increasing every day and we
ar to face higher prices and more
of the gamblers robbery before the
cl lax is reached If we were to
fail to make an abundance of the food
ser this year, it would mean almost
ste walton in our own country. 1t
is certainly time to weigh carefully
evccy move that is made, for no farm
er in Georgia is able to stake his all
or cotton and then wake up late in the
summer to find that the weevil has
ruiGCd his prospects. To think Of go
ing ont and buying food supplies from
the jump then at the prevailing prices
weld be almost as much as doing the
inn ossible.

More tales of suffering by the ne

more of them are finding pauper's
