LET'S EcoNoMlzE VOLUNTARILY

The grower of food products this
year must play safe No risks can be
shared 1t is never too late to begin
to do the right thing. Last year
American boys and girls raised and
canned millions of packages OF food

The L. S. government has ready for
free distribution some three hundred
bulletins on subjects relating to plant
ing. tending, gathering, grading. ana
marketing crops Information about
Florida crops and conditions can be
had from the State Experiment stat
ion at Gainesville
There IS food shortage in this
country due in part to unusual climat-
ic conditions. the past winter was the
most severe in many years. large
quantities OF products were frozen
in the north and gardens and crops in
the Gulf region seriously injured. be-
sides there is shortage Of labor and
then since the war started our eX-
ports Of food have nearly doubled. A
fundamental cause too of our national
weakness in the matter cf failing food
supplies is the transition OF this coun-
try from an agricultural people to d
manufacturing and Office inhabiting
one. Our national defense have been
weakened by the withdrawal OF peo-
pie from the land to the city and be,
coming consumers instead of produc-
ers. II
Even before the va our production

HARRIS AND DEAN HAVE
WARM TILT At TOCCQA
Dean Appears Suddenly and
Launches Attack on Har-
riS, Who Replies

TOCCOA. Ga, June 22.-William j.
Harris and II. H. Dean, candidates Tor
the United States senate, INDUCED In an
impromptu joint debate here this after
noon before an audience of stephens
county citizens.
Mr. Harris, who was scheduled 70 de-
liver a campaign address. at the court
house, had finished his speech, when Mr.
Dean, who had arrived shortly after Mr..
Harris began speaking, mounted the
platform and launched into an attack on
Mr.. Harris.
Charging that Mr.. Harris knew all
about Thomas w. Hardwicks opposition
to certain policies when he Endorsed
the Sandersville man for the senate az
the Macon convention, Mr.. Dean fur
Their declared that Mr.. Harris had Sc
cured from President Wilson a letter
urging Georgians to send Hsr1wick 10
the senate. He also asserted that Har-
ris knew Hardwick's anti-prohibitioa
sentiments in 1914 and that Harris was
responsible for Hardwicks election.
Continuing, Mr.. Dean declared that
Mr.. Harris had advised the people or
Georgia not to buy coal and thereby
caused them much financial loss and
physical suffering Another charge
charge against Harris was that he had
received $25. 900 from corporation man
and that Edward Hurley, of the shipping
board, had contributed to his campaign.
Mr.. Harris, in making his reply I,
these charges, denied that he was cog
infant of Hardwicks attitude when ne
supported him in 1914 and declared that
Hardwick fooled President Wilson as
we'll as himself. He also denied any
responsibility for Hardwicks actions,
saying that Dean, as floor manager for
John NJ Slaton in the Macon convention
could jus. as well be held responsible
for the latter's actions.
Replying to the charges regarding q
coal situation, Mr.. Harris declared that
the federal trade commission had done
everything possible to keep coal prices
down, but that il was an investigating,
not d price-fixing body.
Denying absolutely having received
any $4,000 check for his campaign fund,
Mr.. Harris charged his opponent with
using the methods of a character assas-
sin. He also denied having received con-
tributions from Mr.. Hurley.
You are ten years behind the time,
Mr.. Dean" said Mr.. Harris, in concluding
his reply.
You are a millionaire who wants to
go to the senate, but the people are de-
tcImined that the United states senate
shall not be made into a millionaires'
club. You represent the millionaire
class, while l represent the people"
There was considerable applause a.
various points of Mr.. Harris reply,
while scattering applause greeted Mr..
Dean at junctUres in his speech. Mr..
Harris was introduced by j. d. Pra-
Their, state senator from this district.
Mr.. Dean walked down to the railroad
station alone Mr. Harris was accom-
panied by number of friends,
