Six Counties Are Added
To List of Men Classed
Technically as Deserter,

Six counties have been added to the
list of men technically classed as de-
serters by Major Joel B. Mallet, officer
in charge of the selective service law
in Georgia.
These six counties are Heard, with Is
deserters; Hart, with four; Clayton
with two; Emanuel, with one; Harris
with AZ; Johnson, with 60
When a man fails to return his ques-
tionnaire. or fails to report for medical
examination when ordered. his name is
reported by the local board to Major
Mallet. The latter then notifies the
man to report to him in person or by
letter within five days. If the man fails
he automatically goes on the list as
a deserter.
Penalty for desertion in time of wal
is death, but this extreme penalty has
not yet been applied. Many men class
ed as deserters have gone into vOlun-
teer branches of the service, or have
some satisfactory excuse for failing to
report.

CURE FOR RHEUMATISM.

Dear Mrs. Thomas: 1t seems that
must write a few lines of appreciation,
and add my mite to the column that
is such a pleasure to so many. All of
us are not gifted in the same way,
which is a good thing, since there are
so many lines of duty. But l know we
can all do our best in whatever we I'M
dertake. l have seven children and
am doing the very best that lies in my
power to bring them up to be good and
true men and women.
Mrs. Thomas, I noticed in last week s
paper where someone wanted a cure
for rheumatism. I have a prescription
that, if she will follow it. l am almost
sure il will effect a cure. My husband
has used il and il cured him. and few
others that we told Of it have been
cured. IT is very simple and easy to
take. and doesn't cost very much:
One pound of good sulphur; one quart
OF honey. On going to bed mix one
tablespoonful of sulphur with two ia
blespoonfuls of honey and take. Con-
tinue this for seven nights, then omit
seven and take another seven, omit for
seven. Continue this until twenty-one
doses are taken.
With loving wishes to Mrs. Thomas
and the Household.

If Eudora will watch carefully. I am
sure she will find that her turkeys are
being devoured by worthless half starry

in our country, and they are just now
a great drawback to our food question
When l found that it was dogs eating

CONCERNING TURKEYS


tell Florida Lady our experience with
the two breeds of turkeys she men
toned
First. we tried the Bronze and sue
ceedcd we'll, but they are great ramblers
and we were always afraid something
would catch them or that they would
go and bother some neighbor, as they
would be gone several days at a time.
So we sold out at Thanksgiving and
bought Bourbon Reds. They are of a
gentler disposition and always came
home in the middle OF the day with
their young ones to be fed and at
night to roost. They didn't go far
to make their nests and some times
would lay with the chickens I've
seen them pull the hens off their nests
to get on themselves. When they be-
came broody we always took them to
the house and made nests for them
where We could keep them confined
tor few days. Sometimes when they
came off the nests for the first few
times they would go back TO the old
ness where they laid. but If YOU got
hem and put them back on the eggs
hey would stay.
when they are Matched we keep them
20 lot FOR several days and never
ct them out while tho grass and the
weeds are vet with dew. The first
year we raised seventeen and then lost
twelve of these by a Negroes dos
The next year we didn't. have very
good luck as there came a wet spell
-Ist when they were young and tender
30 We sold 1out these. But I like the
Hourbons best as they are so much
easier to manage and they stay at
home better.

Orpington chickens give their expert
ence through these columns We raise
them.
