The Sumter Republican.

The fortieth anniversary of The
Americas es-Recorder brings to
mind the old Sumter Republican, the
predecessor Of The Times-Recorder,
which for a long time was the news
paper spokesman of that section. The
veteran Editor Hancock was a power
with the PENCIL. The story was told
Of him that only one printer lived
who could read his copy, for that was
before the days Of typewriters. That
printer like the editor, was getting
along in years but despite any con-
viyial habits, he had a cinch on his
job so long as Mr.. Hancock lived. The
Republican, like the Albany News and
Advertiser Of the same date, was as
big as a bed-sbeet, following the pre-
vailing custom OF eight-column pages
and few of them-Tifton Gazette.

TWO KINDS Or DOGS.

Sometime ago The Times-Recarder
published an editorial eulogizing the
dog-the friend of man. There are
cher kinds of dogs than the faith
full friend we wrote about on that oc-
casion. There is the valuable pointer
and the common eur the hound and
sheep killing cur. To the cur" man9
crimes are charged-and not without
reason
The Kentucky Experiment station,
located at Lexington, KY has recently
completed an analysis Of causes con
tributng to the decline Of the sheep
raising industry ii that state The
INVESTIGATION resulted in placing re-
sponsibility for the decipe on the
eur" dog. Many farmers frankly
told the Investigators they quit rais-
ing sheep because OF the rayages Of
stray dogs, and it developed that dur
ing recent years, this one factor has
done more not only to keep hundreds
Of men out of the sheep business in
that state, but also to cause many
others to sell out for good While
this problem is, undoubtedly, a very
real one, yet, on the other hand, it is
the easiest and quickest to remedy and
to control.
The solution of the "cur dog prob
lem" rests directly with the farmers
themselves. Let them cooperate by
communities and by counties and rid
their sections OF worthless "curs;"
let them elect only men to Office who
will enforce the laws already on the
statute books and require all dogs
not taxed to be killed, and the "dog
pest" will cease to be. There was a
time, in earlier days, when the dog
was a necessity upon every farm. Then
he had a place in hunting wild game
and animals and protecting his master.
At the present time there is a limited
use for the dog While it is not
necessary to pet - q II Ill, IL .-ss,
} o.4ly those for which a legitimate
tax is paid should be allowed to exist
It hardly seems fair that the sheep in
dustry in this and other states should
be limited for the greatest part by the
number Of worthless ours.

Sumter County Farms.

A news story from Americus(tells OF
the sale of 4 335-acre farm In Sumter
county for $40 an acre. and that the
same farm with the same buildings
sold at $40 an acre two years ago.
This is a good illustration of what
South Georgia land is worth when it
Is worked UP and put in real farming
condition. OF course, the high price
of cotton had something OF do with the
price the Sumter county farm sold
for, but it did not have any great
bearing IN the matter, because for
the last two years the cotton crop in
Sumter has been almost a failure In
1916 the heavy rains ruined the cot
ton crop, and last year the boil wee
vii reduced the production nearly so
per cent.
The real cause of the Sumter county
farm selling for $40 an acre is the
fact that the farmers OF South Georgia
have learned that there is more profit
in raising corn and feedstuffs and cat
tie and hogs than there ia in cotton.
ord 46a% NOD 1~oxa-1 vn& IN 10 xro-fI
more than $40 an acre as ons-crop
or cotton land, under new system of
farming has proven to be worth $40
an acre. and the price will gradually
increase as the South Georgia farmer
learns better crop liberalization and
stock raising.
The lands around Waycross are Just
es fertile as the lands around Amer
icus, and as this section is gradually
developed as the Sumter county lands
have been, land values will be iuRt as
high in Ware as in Sumter.
Ware county farmers are reading
and keeping posted on what is taking
place IN the agricultural world, and
the Journal Herald predicts that In
less than ten years this county will
be covered with well built and paint
ed farm houses and barns, and that
the fields and woods will be filed with
hogs and cattle.-Wsycros Journal
Herald.

ANOTHER NEW MONEY CROP.

The soy bean has recently been
recognized as q new and valuable
source of supply for paint oils. This
bean grows protitably in Georgia, re-
curing little cultivation but because
of the scarcity of linseed oil, soy bean
oil has been brought in IN much larger
quantities during the past few years
than formerly. During 1915 there
were imported las, 4OO,269 pounds of
soy beans into this country from Asia,
This amount Of oil represented 1885,
400 gallons.
1t is Of interest to know that the
production Of fax has not at all kept
pace with the demand for linseed oil
in the manufacture of paints. AS a
matter Of fact the acreage in 1915 was
but little more than half in this coun>
try what it was in 1913. Of course
the manufacturers Of paints have seen
this decline in the production of fax
seed and have been interested in the
development of other crops suitable
for production of oils which might be
used in the manufacture OF paints.
OF all the vegetables oils produced in
this country soy bean oil is the most
satisfactory in drying properties. It
comes next to lirseed oil, being about
midway in drying properties between
cotton seed oil and lineed oil.
Frank ChCesemsn the president Of
the National Association of Paint
Manufacturers, and also the head of
the national Paint Company, who is
Justly regarded as one Of the best in.
formed men in that lire OF business,
recently referred in a conversation
to the great and growing scarcity OF
linseed oil for making paint When
Mr.. Cheeseman was asked about the
merits OF soy bean oil for this pur-
pose he said it was equally As gooA as
linsead oil in all respects and even
Better in so emparticulars. He saw
OILY one drawback OF defect, this be-
ing that 1t does not dry as rapidly as
linseed oil in paint. The paint manu.
fucturers would be glad to use it, but
he says it is even scarcee than lin
seed oil and also higher in price. He
Urges the South, which is so admirably
adapted TO soy bean culture, to get
into this line Of agriculture on most
extensive scale.

friend
why do you in referring to the
Germans, use word which is go con-
trary to your nature, and to all the

The reply was this:
Forty years ago my wife and I
were married, and to US four sons
and a daughter we're born. They all
grew up, becoming strong and splen-
did characters, and our daughter was
the most beautiful woman ever seen,"
