BROWN GOES To
MAKE A PROTEST
GEORGIA COMMISSIONER OF AG'
RICULTURE TAKES HAND IN
COTTON SEED FIGHT.

Atlanta, Oct. ID. J. Brown, com
missioner of agriculture Of Georgia
accompanied by l.. 3. Jackson, dlfec
for of the market bureau OF the de'
partment, and by j. IL. Hills, presl
dent of the Georgia Farmers Union
are in Washington today to proteS'
against the reulation of the price o
cotton seed by the government. Ihe!
left Saturday night and Will stay IL
Washington several days.
Cotton seed, like every other Pre-
duct of the farm, should have a free
and omen market" declared Commits
sioner Brown or the eve of his de
parture. 1.-THE market for hog lard
has always been the basis for determ-
inin the price of cotton seed oil. l.
the status of the products of cotto1
seed won't warrant a price Of $40 o
$50 a ton for cotton seed, when cot
ton seed is bringing that price in the
open market, then why not put tho
products of cotton seed on q parity
with lard?'
Commissioner Brown will also Ia!
especial emphasis on the fact that the
government did nothing, in the earl
days of the war, to save the SoutheI-
cotton farmers from threatened BAN
ruptcy, when cotton was down to 81
cents a pound and cotton seed were
selling for $14 ton.

TESTIMONY
That's What John Sunyon johnson,
the Weil-Known Automobile
Salesman, Says Of Martins
Liver Medicine

One of the latest to add his I'M
qualified endorsement t. Martins
Liver Medicine is John Bunyon
Johnson, OF Macon. Ga. In letter
dated August Is, 1917, he says:
1t affords ME pleasure to report
that have taken Martins Liver
Medicine and obtained most desir-
able results. Martins Liver Mcdi
cine is pleasant to the taste, does
not grippe nor inconvenience the
takcr in any way. It acts positively
and yet gently upon the liver and it
is my opinion that it is superior to
any liver medicine sold"
Martins Liver Medicine is strictly
vegetable in ingredients, contains
no poisonous calomel, is pleasant to
take and is sold with the standing
guarantee that if it does not give
the effect desired, the empty bottle
can be returned to the drug store
ard the SOC paid for it will be re-
funded. AS medicine for consti-
patton, sick headache or other liver
and stomach troubles, Martins
Liver Medicine is without a peer.

Atlanta, oct. 15.-Did you know
that the government is saving an ave-
ae Of perhaps 10 per cent in freight
charges, on the transportation of wa1
supplies, by virtue OF an obscure pro
vision in old land cranes 10 railroads
whereby the railroads agreed to trans.
port troops and government property
at reduced rates or in some cases
free? 1t is fact, to which attentio,
is just called by railroad officials here
From 1856 to 1870 The government
granted many lands for transconti-
mental lines, and they contained these
provisos. Nobody thought at The time
of such vast movements OF troops and

PHONE CAPACITY
SEVERELY TRIED
WAR CONDITIONS MAKE HEAVY
DEMAND ON so. BELL CO.
ALL OVER DIXIE.

Atlanta, Oct. 15-Unprecedented
conditions confronting every business
on account of the war have been felt
by the telephone business TO an even
greater degree than perhaps any 9th
er industry, and especially is this true
in the Southern states.
In the Southern states for which At
ianta is headquarters, thirteen army
environments have been established.
In each Of these camps telephone
system has been installed, connecting
the various buildings Of the camps
with one another and connecting the
camps with the towns or cities near
them. The task of installing these
telephone systems was gigantic, and
the equipment was altered from the
four corners of the United States.
Meanwhile, an unprecedented de-
mand for telephone service has come
rom the general public. Business
calls have increased by leaps ant
bounds Government calls have null
tjplied by thousands. Long distance
calls have jumped to new records.
Even social calls have increased. II
some localities the calling rate hae
increased so per cent.
1t is quite natural, accordin to local
telephone officials, that this sudden
and vast increase OF calls should slow
down service. The telephone com
pany must serve the government first
and must also keep the wheels o.
commerce and industry moving by the
most rapid and efficient telephone SCI
vice that science and money are able
to secure. If people find that service
| is not as prompt as it was a fey
months ago, let them remember tina
the nation is at war. and take the de
lays cheerfullyas they are doing.
