Georgia Farmers Have More Money
II Than They Know What To Do With"

are fine. Business is good Money
is plentiful.
Listen to this for instance; it is an
from q, special dispatch published in
an Atltnta newspaper, Sept. 26 from
its news correspondent at cambridge,
Ga:
Money was never more plentiful
in Decatur County than at present.
Banks are running over with it and
farmers have more than they know
what to do with. There is less de-
mand for money than in some time,
as the farmers have too much much
of their own to want to borrow and
it is beginning to pile up in the banks.
This condition is typical Of all
paris of Georgia Tho bank clear
ings in the banks Of Atlanta in Sep
TENDER, 1916, were S 81, 998, 2O2.57;
in September, 1917,they had in
creased to 1929 1874, 455.76.
There will be more money in the
banks Of our people this fall than ever
BEFORE" says N. G. Bartlett, secre-
tary CT the Chamber of Commerce of
Dublin, Ga, in a published Statement.

Imagine, if you can, how much the
average big plantation owners, live
stock raisers and orchardists in Geor
gia must have added to their bank ac-
count this year.
One Of the secrets Of this prosper
ity is crop diversifcation. Southern
farmers are getting away from the
risk Of poor cotton crop and are
making much more money on other
crops and live stock. Last year Geor
gia was the fifth highest state in the
Union ON farm products, her output
bringing $29S $4,000.
But the Georgia people have other
sources of income besides farm prod

Dillon Warns Government That There

Fight.
ndon. March 21.-Protesting in

London. March 21.-Protesting in
the house Of commons last night
against the governments refusal to
publish the proceedings of the court
martial of the members of the Sim
Fein in Dublin, John Dillon, one of
the Nationalist leaders, said the Ma
tionalists would not injure the govern
'ment in the prosecution of the war.
But there were other ways, Mr.. Dill
Ion said, of Furnishing the government.
The Nationalists would welcome a
general election, and would oppose
the bill for a prolongation of the pres
ent parliament, in order to force an
election.
If. Mr.. Bonar Law raised anti-1rish
feeling in London he would find the
Irish could fight as we'll.
He further said the Nationalists
would ask what were the relations be-
tween the Ulster leaders and Baron
Kuhlmann, who was in Ulster before
the war, and what about the dispatch
sent by Kuhlmann to Berlin, on the re
ceipt of which the emperor deter
mined to go on with the war.

THREATENS ELECTION
Accuses Irist, Leaders With an Effort
to ParaIyze EngIand's Activity In
the War-Dillon Forces Issue.

London, March 16.-If the Irish par.
ty members continue their opposition
to the Lloyd George government, a
general election will be forced and
England's activity in the war will be
paralyzed, according to the chancellor
of eXchequer Andrew Bonar Law in q
statement made in the house of COM
mons today.
He appealed eloquently to all Irish
members to join in negotiations de.
signed to effect a settlement of the
Irish question.
He declared an appeal to the coun-
try might be forced on the ground that
the Nationalists were unwilling to per.
NIT the government to get on with the
war.
Replying to a question by John Dill
Ion as to wheather orders had been
given the people of Dublin to remain
indoors on St. Patrick's day, the chan
cellor said Henry T.. Duke, chief Sec
retary for Ireland, had gone to that
country. Bonar Law said that he per.
sOnally knew nothing about the mat
ter but would make inquiries.
