HIS MAJESTY, The HOG, is
OBJECT OF MUCH ATTENTION
Marked Progress Has Been Made in
Georgia Against Cholera. Losses
Are Greatly Reduced.

Splendid results have been attained
this year in the suppression of hog
cholera. AS a result of the persistent
and thorough field work directed to-
ward the suppression of hog cholera,
the losses for 1917 will not exceed
IS per cent. of the total production
in Georgia. In 1914 these losses went
as high as 80 per cent, in 1915 they
exceeded 25 per cent. while in 1916
they were about Is per cent. These
figures will indicate the splendid pro-
gress that is being made in the sup
preston of this serious disease in
the state.
The unusually high commercial
value of hogs at this time has de-
manded a more thorough and more
active campaign against hog cholera
than has ever before been waged.
The United States department of ag-
riculture is now furnishing seven vet
erinarians while the state depart
ment, under DR.. Peter F. Bahnsen,
has four veterinarians in the field,
making a total of eleven who are en-
gagged wholly in the work of hog chol-
era control.

u. S. is OVERRUN
With WOMEN SPIES
80 FAR SKIRTS HAVE GIVEN
THEM THEIR FREEDOM. CON.
GRESS EXPECTED TO ACT.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-That the
united States is overrun with women
spies IN the employ of Germany. and
that they are enjoying privileges not
accorded to men spies. is the belief
Oh inner circles here, and it is anti
clpated that congress will be asked
70 enact a law that will throw about
Vhem the same restrictions that are
oelng applied to those of the sterner
sex.
Today, under the laws of the Unit
ed States, enemy aliens of the mas
cullne sex past IA years old are for
bldden to enter certain important re-
strlcted areas. This affects the activ-
ltles of many spies, although, of
course, not all spies are enemy aliens.
Some of them are naturalized citi-
zens and some, the government has
reason to believe, are native born.
But alien enemies of the feminine
sex are not affected by the prohibi-
Clons concerning restricted areas,
and such of them as may be spies
are free to come and go where men
and not permitted.
Women Spies Dangerous.
The experience of the present war
has shown that many of the most
dangerous spies have been women

situations where men would newt.
ably have been suspected. Germany
IN particular, has an extremely large
staff of women spies in all walks Of
life, and they have contributed much
to the success of the Wilhelmstrasst
intelligence bureau.
The fact that women may be en-
ployed extensively in the United
States was illustrated only few DAYS
ago, when a young woman employe
of New York firm confessed thai
she had been hired to give informa
ton to the Germans and was prompt
! ly interned for the period of the war
Yet women alien enemies, as the

VALUE OF FARM PRODUCTS
RUN WELL UP INTO BILLIONS
Cotton Staple Fell OF More Than a
Million Bales. Other Products
Show an Increase.

Food crops generally, with the ex-
ception of wheat, established records
in production this year, and their val
ue far exceeds that of other years,
according to final estimates made by
the department of agriculture. Cot
ton, however, caught by an early
frost, suffered a sensational loss of
approximately 100000 bales from
early estimates. Lateness of plant
ing, because of dry weather, and the
shortness of season, due to early
frosts, curtailed production of many
crops. Reports show the great corn
crop to have been damaged to the
extent of about 100000 bushels
by frost. Nevertheless corn produc-
ton established a record this year
with 3,159, 494,000 bushels, while its
value, also a record, is $4,053, 672,-
600. The wheat crop shows a de-
crease of about 100000 bushels
from previous forecasts. This years
crop is estimated at 650,828,000
bushels, and its value at S848,372,-
600.
Oats is a record crop with 1887
2S6,000 bushels, and a value of ST.
061, 427,O00. The potato crop is the
largest ever grown with total Of
1885, 900 bushels, valued at $685.
$500 Other crops whose produc-
ton establishes records are rye,
sweet potatoes, beans, onions, cab
bage and tobacco.

NOTICE,

GEORGIA, Terrell County-No-
tlce is hereby given that after four
weeks publication as required by
law, to wit: On December 81, 1917,
pursuant to paragraph 1905 of the
code of Georgia, as guardian for Sa-
rah Lewis Jones, a minor Is years of
age, | will present petition to Hon.
orable VIM. C. Worrill, judge of the
superior court, of Terrell county, at
chambers, at Cuthbert, Ca, at nine
o'clock a. M, asking for an order to
sell at private sale, for the purpose of
reinvestment, a remainder interest in
a one-seventh undivided interest, be-
longing to my said ward, in the fol-
lowing lands situated in Jenkins and
Burke counties, Ca, and described as
follows:
"All that tract and parcel of land,
bounded on the north by lands be-
longing to C. l. Belt, by lands be-
longing to the estate of j. B. Jones;
on the east by lands belonging to
the estate of H. W. Jones, the Wig
gins lands and George Law Jones
lands now belonging to the estate of
John R. Sharpe; on the south by the
Ogeechee river, and on the west by
lands belonging to the Bunns, by the
Inman lands, by the lands of C. C.
Farrar, and by the lands of C. I.
Belt, containing in all 1864 acres,
more or less, located partly in the
1884 G. M. district of Jenkins coun-
ty, and partly in the 73rd G. M. dis
trict of Burke county, and comprising
all the original J. B. Jones lands
north of Ogeechee river known as
the Herndon plantation in possession
Of John R. Sharpe at the time of his
DEATH" for the reason that my
wards interest in said land is I'M
productive and brings no income,
that there is expense attached to
keeping it and that it can now be
sold and the proceeds invested to ad-
vantage, according to law.

ticipate War Needs, Then Ordnance
Bureau Wouldn't Give Orders.
In their evidence the manufact-
urers said that efforts to get the ord
nance bureau to give its orders for
guns on the certainty that war was
coming were futile, and after the
war was started delaying changes IN
specifications were made.
Vice President Stoddard, OF the
Marlin Arms corporation, declared
that when he offered to begin work
on guns on the certainty that war
was coming Colonel Rice, of the ord
nance bureau, told him: "We're not
interested" -,
at was utterly impossible to make
the ordnance department realize the
possibilities of war;" said Mr.. Stod-
dard. "and we simply folded our tents
and went home"
After the manufacture Of rifles be-
gan. it was testified, Colonel Thomp-
SON wanted to delay production sew
eral months by insisting on new
standards. but the manufacturers ap..
nealed to General Crozier, chief OF
the bureau, and went ahead with the
work.
