RAISE MORE CORN TO FEED
MORE HOGS
RAISE

There is an old saying in the mid
dlewest that farmer Raises more
corn to feed more hogs to buy more
land TO raise more corn to feed more
hogs" The hog up here is frequently
called the mortgage litter" Here in
Georgia he is fast becoming the dis
turber Of the old time credit system.
In 1910 the census showed 80 coun-
ties in Georgia raising a sufficiency
CT home-raised meht with some to
sell The counties were: Bryan, Bull
loch. Charlton, Clynch, Coffee, Col
quit, Decatur. Echols, Effngham,
Grady, Irwin, Liberty, Lowndes, Mont
gomery, Pierce, Pulaski, Raburn,
Screyen, Tattnall Thomas, Tiff,
Toombs, Towns, Turner, Union, Way
ne and Wilkinson.
1t will be observed that only two of
these counties are in North Georgia;
Raburn and Towns All of the others
are in a warm climate; some of them
in a temperature where butchering
without ice is a gamble on the wealth
er.
What a change has taken place
since then. Today there are Is coun-
ties that are producing one hundred
or more cars of hogs year. In these
counties are large pig club enroll
ments AS a rule, a dollar, under nor
NAL conditions in the United States,
changes hands % times during year,
but in an all-cotton county, only about
two times. They say money talks,
but all a cotton dollars says is good
bye"
Denmark has a few more people
than Georgia and onefourth as much
land, much of it poor, rough and rocky
Denmark in 1912 bought 97,590,174
pounds of cottonseed meal for her
dairy cows. That year she sold Eng
land 100000 worth of butter and
$25,O00,00 worth of bacon. Raising
more corn to feed more hogs is put
ting Georgia on a better basis.
The counties raising 100 cars of
hogs a year are: Apling, Bacon, Bak
er, Ben Hill, Berrien, Bib, Bleckley,
Brooks, Bryan, Bulloch Burke, Cal
houn, Camden, Gambler. Charlton,
Clinch, Coffee, Colquitt. Columbia,

OUITMAN STORE IS Quilted

Quitman, Aug. 18,-A serious fire
quilted the store of L. S. Price in the
business district yesterday morning.
A. C. Powell discovered the flames
and turned in the alarm. The fire
started under one of the counters.
The flames were extinguished but the
entire stock was ruined by water and
smoke. Mr. Price has not estimated
his loss, but he thinks probably the
insurance will cover all damages

Crisp county, but will have much
better chance if Shaw is left Off and
the strength thrown whore il ought
to be to defeat Senator Hardwick.
We know of no other method of
appeal than to you'd sense of pride.
We know you would not like to tell
anybody that Emmett Shaw carried
Crisp county. II you we're to go fish
Ing and meet your neighbor from
across in Wilcox county, you would
be very slow to tell him that Shaw
carried your county. You would not
be proud of it, because you know it
isn't a thing for men Of strong 10y
atty to do at this time.
Chapters could be written on the
utter folly Of turning to man Of
Shaw's capacity to fill the office he
is asking. 1t would be the greatest
political prodigy the American con
tinent has ever afforded were you to
see Emmett Shaw wearing the Sen
atorial toga from Georgia and sitting
in the high councils of the nation at
Washington That is thing no
more reasonable than to expect that
President Wilson would spend the
remainder of his days digging pota-
toes,
There is in this county a strong
determination on the part Of GER
tain dislayal element that used to
follow the advice of Tom Watson on
all questions to vote for Shaw be-
cause they always love to throw their
vote away Shaw carried this coun-
ty once against your present con-
gresham and nobody in Crisp coun-
ty has ever been proud of it. Crisp
county once bolted the regular dem
ocratic ticket at the regular election
and nobody in Crisp county has ev-
er been proud of it to this day. Can
lidly there is not good citizen in the
county who would be proud of it were
this unheard Of thing to occur to-
occur again.
If you are against the war your
country is prosecuting with its great
est vigor, vote for Hardwick, If you
are for your president and believe
he is wise and able to steer through
1T all as he has been in the past do
as he has requested you to do--vote
for William j. Harris. He has Civ
en- you ample reason for the choice.
He knows Please do not throw
Crisp county away by giving serious
thought to the candidacy of Emmett
Shaw. The matter is of far too great
Importance for that.

Bankers Vigorously Assai|
Comptroller of Currency

Chicago, Sept. 25.-John Shelton
Williams, comptroller of the cur
rency, was vigorously assailed by
state bankers at today's sessions OF
the American Bankers association
convention.
Speaker after speaker in the state
bank section referred to a recent
statement of the comptroller, which
for a brief period compared failures
in state and national banks to the
disparagement of the former. This
eliminated in a resolution adopted
by the section with only one dis
senting vote, which regarded as
unfortunate" this statement.
Charles H. Sabin of New York
showed that state bank and trust
company failures affected only w
per cent of the resources of state in
stitutions and that there were no
state bank failures in a. states dur
ing the first seven months Of 1918.
E. D. Huxford of Cherokee, Ia,
president of the state bank section,
described the comptroller as the
advertising manager in Washington
of the national banks"
Mr. Huxford also assailed the
farm loan banks.

sertion may, however, result in this

HUNGER STRIKE
PRISONER FEEDS
ON AIRY NOTHING
Water and a Stubborn Dispo.
sition Has Kept 0Isenorge
Alive Since Pershing's
Birthday.

Edward E. Olsenorge, aged fed.
eral prisoner held in the county jail
for the last IL weeks, following his
arrest on sedition charge, Wed.
nesday entered upon the 18th day Of
his self-imposed hunger strike.
Olsenorge, who is about 90 years
old. and a German, hurled defiance
at the jailers on September IS, de.
claring that he was through eating
until he was released. Since that
day he has eaten nothing. He
drinks a generous amount of water
however.
Wednesday morning. when asked
If he would not like something to
eat, the old man declared: mo,
will not eat until / have my
freedom"
He sits on the side of his cot in
the hospital ward throughout the
entire day without conversing with
other prisoners in the same ward
He appears to be getting weaker
daily, but his stubborn disposition
has not been vanquished by the void
in his stomach. Federal authorities
are inclined to let him chose his
own time to break the fast.
One reason given by Olsenorge
for his refusal to eat is that he once
was poisoned while eating in Jail
He, however, ate freely from the Jail
menu until September IS. when the
whole country was celebrating Gen.
eral Pershing's birthday.

English home army in the theater
of war; to the employment of col
ored troops and to the interven-
ton of American divisions.
Referring to the entente allied
attack on the Marine salient, Gen
eral Won Wrisberg said the with
drawal of the German troops was
necessary "for strategical reasons
and was completely successful
Thus the first offensive of the
enemy" he added, brought him a
tactical success, but considered in
the light of his great strateglcal
aims it can be regarded as not hav-
ing succeeded"
General Won Wrisberg described
the British victory between the
Ancre and the Avre rivers as a
great success due to the massed
employment of tanks and surprise
under the protection of their fire. -
The withdrawal to the linden
burg line, the general said, was due
to a lack OF we'll consolidated po-
sitions."
To Settle with" Americans.
Speaking of the American victory
in the St. Mihiel sector. General Won
Wrisberg said:
1T lies in the nature of the case
that we as the defenders lost a con-
siderable number of guns and pris-
oners. We can, however, with as
surance, calculate that the enemy
obtained his successes on the first
days of the attack by surprise and
with small losses, but for the rest he
suffered the heaviest losses.
The American armies should not
terrify us. We shall also settle with
them"
