$400, 100000, and 200 officers, 80,-
600 men, and 10000 women have

THE HEN LATER

Washington, D. C.,-Appreciation
of this fact, the poultry specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture say, will add 150,000,000
eggs to our food supply this year
without reducing our supply of
chicken meat. Investigators have
found that because poultry brings 2
cents a pound more in winter than in
late spring, many farmers in the
South have been throwing away val
liable egg profits just to get cents
more per hen. They believe that if
farmers will keep their laying hens
and sell their eggs and then market
the birds in the late spring, they will
not only add to the food supply, but
actually increase their profits so
cents per hen.

AUTO DEALERS
To HAVE BANNER
WEEK IN ATLANTA
March 1917 to Be Dealers Week
In nAtlanta-Dealers From All Over
State to Drive Out Cars During
This Period In the Interest of Bet
ter Business.

Every automobile dealer in Geor-
oia is interested in the fact that
March 10 to 18th will be Dealers
Week" in Atlanta.
During this week the Atlanta Au-
tomobile distributors will make
suecial effort to give Georgia dealers
the necessary cars for large drive
outs.
More automobiles are being sold
in the south today than ever before
in it's history and the prospects for
the coming spring and summer are
more than gratifying.
In this general wave Of prosperity
the automobile dealer is one of the
big factors. Prosperity always means
the greater buying and selling OF
automobiles, and in these particular
times the national necessity of keep
ing money in circulation.
The old business truth of having
YOUR stock ready holds good in the
automobile industry, and the Geor-
gia dealers who take advantage of
this Dealers Week" and drive out
cars are going to reap the benefits
in the greater sales period that is
upon them.
Automobile dealers all over the
state have expressed themselves as
willing and ready to visit Atlanta
during the week of March 10-17 and
the Atlanta distributors are making
plans to take care of them in every
way.
Many large dive-outs are expected
during this week and many smaller
affairs will be staged. Every distri-
butor in Atlanta expects to have a
large number of Georgia dealers as
visitors during the week of March
10-17.
