it will be serviceable in clarifying
situation which, to say the least, has
been very cloudy and uncertain. For
it absolutely establishes, beyond all
dispute, that the people Of this state
do not want Hardwick at any cost,
and that they will support w. J. Har-
ris as the candidate most likely to
bring victory to the banners OF those
who exalt patriotism above politics.

The Danger OF Cotton Expansion
In 1918.

In 1918.
The Albany Herald says:
viii Georgia farmers plant too much
cotton in 1918?
We are mindful of the fact that a
great many farmers know more about
their business than newspapers can
hope to tell them and we know also
that a farmer not infrequently gets
heartily tired of having so many peo-
pie tell him how to run his farm,
manage his household, make his hens
lay and keep his stock in contented
frame of bind. But everybody seems
to regard it as the inalienable right
OF all who do not farm to give coun-
sci to all who do, and those who till
the fields must realize by this time
that advice for the horny handed son
OF toll, like salvation and fresh air,
is free.
And those who advise the farmers
including those who are really com
petent to give advice-are pretty we'll
agreed that to plant for big cotton
crog in 1918 would be to court dis
aster
In SO far as the cotton crop was
concerned, 1917 was a remarkable
year in the history of this section.
Owing to very dry season which
greatly handicapped the boil weevil,
that pest was unable to infict the
damage upon. cotton which had been
regarded by government entomol-
ogists as inevitable. The production
was therefore unexpectedly large
But 1t is worth considering that
cotton is not the only thing that is
going to be in great demand next year.
The fact is that everything produced
on the farms of this section will for
a long time to come be bringing pri-
ces which will insure a period Of I'M
precedented prosperity for farmers.
Hogs and beef cattle will sell for
record prices in 1918, for the govern
ment experts who have weighed pos
sible supply against certain demand
point out that the yorld's supply of
meat is sure to fall short of world
requirements. Corn, wheat, oats and
other grain, peas, potatoes, hay, syrup
and peanuts will throughout next year
for prices quite as high and possibly
averaging higher than those prevail
ing in 1917
And the important thing to con-
slider is that these products can be
made without fear of boil weevil
molestation.
No matter what presents itself thus:
Cotton and cotton seed will sell for
high prices in 1918, but it is prob
ably going to be exceedingly difficult
to make profitable cotton crop.
But other crops which can be rails
ed on the farms of this section will
also bring high prices, and they are
not subject to Interference by diseases
or pests whi@h cannot be controlled.

and a big peanut acreage. the latter

over the former, and some of the best

Newspapers in all Of the 152 coun
ties were wired for their unbiase
opinions on these three phases of tn
pending senatorial election
First: Who is the most logical
man to oppose Hardwick!
Second: What man is strongest
now against HardWick!
Third: What is Hardwick's re-
latiVe strength!
Replies were received from abou
one hundred and ten counties, rang
ing from the seacoast to the mountain
GUS districts of north Georgia.
Summarized, these replies indicat
quite conclusively:
That w. j. Harris is the choice
of the majority of the people of
the state for the United States
Senate;
That there is deep and general
anti-Hardwick sentiment through
out the state;
That Hardwick is strong only in
certain sections, and that he is
losing strength everywhere;
That Murphy Gambler has no fol.
lowing about the state, being
favored only in few localities;
That other prospective candi.
dates are not and will not be.

tivation be delayed until the surface
soil begins to bake and crack, roots

Small corn plants do not require a
large moisture supply. Early irriga-
tions stimulate an excessive growth

ally do not produce as much grain as
those normally developed and are less
likely to reach maturity before fall
frosts occur
On land that is. we'll cultivated and

Of much benefit to- the plants in pro-

rigations should bA thorough and fol-

Irrigation in burrows or shallow
bitches between the corn rows is bet
ter than flooding the whole surface
and allowing the water to come in

The number Of irrigations necessary

amount of moisture supplied by rain.
On average loan soils two or three

Senator Kane Wants to Know As
scsscd Valuation and Tax Paid
by Different Concerns.

Helena, Mont Jan. 11.-For the
first time during the present assembly
the senate broke into discussion yes
terday when Senator Kane of Rivalli
county introduced a resolution pro-
viding for a committee to ascertain
the assessed valuation and tax paid
by all mining companies. the assessed
valuation of hydro electric power and
lighting companies; the assessed valu-
alton of all Improvements OF railroad
companies; the assessed valuation of
telephone and telegraph companies
and express companies and ANY other
information which the committee may
deem essential for the Information
of the senate"
committee on committees. Of which
Senator Larson is chairman, should
appoint committee for this purpose.
Action is promised today.
OF the money received from this
source, the Flathead county legislator
would apportion one-half to a special
school fund which would be distrbut-
ed by the state to the various school
districts in Montana; one-quarter of
while the other quarter would go to
the county from which the metals
are mined
The proposed bill likewise provides
that those engaged in mining must
deliver sworn statements to the audi
tor on or before April l of each year,
showing the amount of proceeds as
we'll as the cost OF production.
The state board of equalization is
given authority to- examine into the
accounts of such mining companies.
If the mining company fails to give
a true account of its annual profits,
the bill provides that the state board
of equalization may determine the
amount omitted and it must then add
a penalty of so per cent Of the amount
thus omitted to the total tax against
the company.
II the person, company or corpora
ton fails to pay this license tax on
or before July of each year, the bill
specifies that a penalty of 10 per cent
shall be added. The state treasurer
must then commence suit to enforce
payment Of the tax and the state CIV

Pershing will have his tonsila removed
