TO OUR FARMER VOTERS

You will be told before election day
next Wednesday that Bill Harris is
a Roman Catholic and that this is
the reason why President Wilson is
asking you to vote for him for the
United States Senate Emmett Shaw
is covering his territory in south
Georgia now with that kind of state
ments. Emmett Shaw is also telling
our Farmers that the reason Hard
wick is not liked is because the bos-
SEES cannot control him., But you
know why Hardwick is not going
back to the United States Senate.
You know what his prclGerman
efforts have been. You know he tried
to keep our boys from going to France
and tried to keep us from passing a
law to punish German spies in this
country. The record is there and has
never been denied. He has tried to
keep this country from even support
ing it's big armies in Europe. Do you
want to treat your boy and country
in this banner?
President Wilson is a true Pre-
sbyterian from an old Georgia fami
ly. Bill Harris also is a true Presby-
terrain from an old Georgia family,
has member since he was years old.
There never been a Catholic curch in
Bill Harris community, just like
there is not one in your community.
This is the truth about it. Please do
not be misled.
Harwick, Howard, Shaw and their
supporters have runners going all
through south Georgia in automobiles
who claim to be travelling statesmen
and who tell you that the race is
between Howard and Hardwick. II
is all done to put you on their band

Will win. There is a reason why heul

AIRPLANEs AFTER WAR

AirDlanes will be widely used, after
the war, for purposes of exploration
and survey, said Harold Brighouse,
of the Royal Geographical Society,
commenting on the announcement that
Captain Amundsen's Arctic expedition
which has just sailed, has taken three
airplanes as part of its equipment.
Captain Amundsen will use these
airplanes for geographical and meteo-
said Mr.. Brighouse, "and they should
prove very useful in this connection.
With peace will come large eX-
tension of the use of the airplane in
exploration.
"There is no reason why the re-
hottest parts of Africa or the upper
waters of the Amazon should remain
unmapned Aerial photography has
reached stage when all that is ne
cessary for exact mandrawing is a
continuous series of air photographs.
Tracts of Portuguese East Africa,
which had never before been charted,
were, in fact mapped by means of
the air photography Of British avia-
tors.
1.-THE Undiscovered natural resour-
ce of new country can be observed
from airplanes. The eye of the OBJ
server reveals much; the air camera
even now is an excellent guide in
indicating the kind of wood growing
in Z forest, and will be of greater
utility still as the development of
serial color photography progresses.
Railway survey through savage
lands, which both in life and money
has been tremendously costly pre-
liminary to construction, will become
safe, and so cheap as to present no
financial obstacles whatever, to
survey which uses serial photography
mot only can the course of rivers
be Traced, but their navigable chan
nels can be ascertained, and the com
bined discovery made of valuable
natural products together with the best
means of transporting them by river.

EARLY BUYING is WISE

You have much to gain in making
your fall and winter purchases during
the present month, so far as is pos
sible. There will be a rush on for
many weeks,-indeed uH until the
holidays, as soon as the fall is we'll
opened, and it will be difficult,
generally speaking, for you to get
anything like what you desire.
The best way to keep from rushing
an already dead. sure-to be rushed
winter season is to buy what you can
take care of at this time. There are
many chances for paying higher
prices when you make your purchases
later and there are indeed few chances
for saving anything by the delay.
You will make sure of a supply of
what you need if you do your buying
early You will make it possible for
your merchant to supply everybody
and at the same time gauge his stock
so as not to run over with many more
of the winter goods than can be sold.
Time will mean something to the
merchant. He appreciates the early
buyer more because it gives him
more time in which to please every
dody
Many advantages will come to the
early buyer this season. Many dis
advantages will haunt the late buyer
His will develop into regular
scramble for winter supplies and the
chances are he will go without much
of what he will need.
Your fall and winter necessities are
already laid in by your merchants.
The new fall goods are already wait
ing for you and the time to start after
them now while you can get them.
Better buy now than to regret it
later.

ARGENTIAN'S POLICY

Argentian's policy toward the
belligerents in the world war was in
voved in the decision of the Chamber
Of Deputies on July 3 to make July IA
France national holiday also and
again a day for national celebration
in Argentia. Friends of the Entente
nations consider the action of the
Chamber of Depties in adopting this
measure to indicate that the MAORI
ty of the members of the Chamber
are pro-Entente,
President Irigoyen is placed in a
difficult position by the passage of
this measure During the debate in
The Chamber of Deputies there was
sharp alignment of pro-Entente
sentiment in sport of the proposal
to make Bastille Day a National holi-
lday in Argentia No one but Germans
and their sympathisers opposed mea-
sure. These latter contended that the
Germans would be offended if July IA
was made an Argentia Holiday and
that they would regard it as a breach
rof neutrality
1t was generally admitted in the
Hobbies of the Chamber of Deputies
\ that the July Ia holiday proposal was
L designed by the enemies of the Presi-
dent to force his hand. He must either
vote or sign the bill. If he signs the
llbill friends of the Allies will claim
| it as friendly action toward the
| Entente nations. If he refuses to sign
it his enemies declare his veto will
/ e considered as a definite stand in
favor of Germany.
There was hot contest over the
measure. 1t caused a split in the Radi.
cal party which has supported the
President and there are now two
distanct groups in that party. 1t it
believed tina each group will have its
own candidate for presidency when
the next elections are held.
The first group contains the cleri-
Gals and the conservative Radicals.
Pincluding those two who are to Ger
many, Spain and Mexico. The. other
group, called the Extremists is COM
posed of the Radicals whose sym
pathjes are with the Entente cause
IN the war.
The clerical or conservative wing
favor strict neutrality by Argentina
in the war and is antagonistic toward
the British and American trade in
vasion of South America; while the
wing is friendly toward both British
and Americans. The latter demands a
frank expression of sympathy toward
the Entente allies.

The Crown Prince has changed his
mind. 1t used to be that he believed
Germany was destined to rule the
world and he went forth to conquer
He wants now to hold what he has,
but that is not going to be permitted,
Germany has i'll gotten gains and has
been committing wrongs that must
be recompensed. But then We are on
the way to better times among the
German junkers, for here is sort
of evolution in the right direction.
Next time he Crown Prince speaks
it viii be his claim that he is fight
ing to save Germany, for that's what
it is coming to right fast.

IMPROVING THE BAD SPOTS
Certain Small Ruts That Are Usually
Wet and Soft Determine Load
Farmer Can Garry.

The worst holes in the road always
determine the load the farmer can
market. No stretch of roadway is uni
formly good, because every road has
certain small spots that are usually
soft and wet. These spots cause more
trouble than the rest of the road COM
bined. How these spots are to be i'm
proved depends on the character of
the soil, and the nature of the coun-
try. Many such spots owe their char
acter to Il soft subsOil, due to springs.
Before these roads can be permanent
ly improved they must be under
drained. If q tile is laid in these
places there will usually be no trouble
In the future. The surface of the road
should then be filled with dirt and
crowned SO any surface water may
run off. If this is done there will be
no trouble from subsurface water.
Many roadways that are closed in
with shade trees are bad. If goodly
portion of the scrub timber along these
roads be removed, the ground will dry
out and no trouble result. If the char
acter of the soil is soft and pliable, so
that it will not pack and remain firm,
new material should be applied to the
surface. The best and cheapest mate
rial for improving roads is gravel.
Where gravel beds are accessible a
days work with team and wagon
will improve any roadbed permanent
ly. If the soil Is very sandy an S-inch
application of clay to the surface will
effect wonders. The road patrol should
spend a considerable portion Of its
time in remcdying the bad spots in the
road.

WIDE TIRES IMPROVE ROADS
They Have Same Effect on Country
Highway as Roller on Field
Also Pull Easier.


Wide tires build up reads and save
horse labor. They have the same eff
feet upon a country road as a roller on
q plowed field. On the other hand, the
narrow tire cuts up a road like a disk.
1t has been found by actual test in this
matter that the wide-tired wagon
pulls easier in nearly all cases than
the narrOwtired wagon. In deep mud
on a country road the wide-tired wag-
on pulls 60 per cent easier. On the
country road with thin surface of
mud or deep dust, however, the mar.
row tires pull 40 per cent easier. In
cornfield the wide tires pull 800 per
cent easier, ia a dry alfalfa field III
per cent easier, and on dry country
road 1O.2 per cent easier.
