THE PRODUCERS AGENTS.
ONE FIRMS PROFIT $4,000
Charged More For Feed Than They
Paid For lt-Forced To Refund
Money-More Charges Against
the Packers.

Washington. Numbers of live
agents for cattle producers at stock
yards have been found by department
Of agricultural agents to be taking IL
legal profits in furnishing hay and
feed for cattle belonging to their
clients. William F. Williams, solicit
tor for the department, told the Sen
ate's agriculture committee.
1--WE found one firm on the Chi
cago yards during 1918 that charged
its customers $4,000 more for feed
furnished the stock Of the customers
than they paid for it," said he. THE
firm agreed to refund"
Proceedings have since been in
stituted, Williams said, to force re-
fund of smaller amounts by firms at
Chicago ST. Paul and Kansas City.
Approval of the Kenyon and Ken
drick bills, for regulation of the pack
ing industry, and of the federal trade
commission report on the subject
was voiced by Edward G. Burke of
Omaha, Neb., OF the market commit
tee Of the American Live Stock As
ISOLATION.
1.-The issue of whether or not the
federal government shall maintain its
power to control the supply of essen
tial foodstuffs," Burke said. cor
whether the Ave large packers with
their ever growing wealth and power
shall go on perfecting their monopo-
~, until they stand between the pro-
Queer and consumer and dictate the
terms on which they shall live"
The packers, he charged, had en-
barked upon tremendous campaign
''of dust throwing and camouflage,"
to disguise the true situation.

Simon Wolf, the Jewish leader, is
eightytwo years old, and he is a
great friend of Chauncey Depew, who
has just turned eighty-five. On the
day that Depew was eighty-fve Wolf
sent him telegram saying: "You are
three years my senior in years and
fifty years my senior in intellect"
Which is rather neat compliment.

Charlie st. John Announces for the
Legislature

Mr. Charles J. St. John announces
as a candidate for the House of RIP
resentatiye to fill the place made va
cant by the death of Hon. L. D.
Cavett.
Mr. st. John is a Noxubce born and
bred product. He was principal of,
and successfully conducted the Nox-
ubee County Agricultural High School
and is now principal of the Rankin
County Agricultural High School.
His war service was voluntary and he
he won promotion by service and ca
pacity. His friends think he has the
character and capacity toworthily and
Iusefully serve the county and state in
the Legislature.
They also urge that as Macon has
the senator and the other two repre-
Isentatives, Dinsmore and Williams, the
other portion of the county should be
given one place, not have all the del
egatlon from one precinct
Write the name Charles J. st. John

Red Cross Man at Methodist Church.

On last Sunday Lieut.. J. R. Fitze,
who for eight years has served in thhe
U. S. Navy, spoke to a large congre-
cation Of Macon people at the Metho-
dist church, At present Mr.. Fitze is
director in the department of Military
Relief in the Red Cross, for the Gulf
Division, and gave the program laid
out by the Red Cross for times of
peace, He is a forceful speaker, and
is thoroughly familiar with the work
to which he has been assigned. While
the Red Cross has functioned largely
in times of war up to the present time,
it has shown that it must now become
which the general welfare of the ma
ton will be considered.
The work Of the Red Cross in time
of peace is in the care of the soldiers,
giving help and information, and in
health of the community. 1t proposes
to help in the health Of the community
by placing a trained nurse in ech
county, or as nearly so as possible for
giving instruction, and assistance in
every way possible to decrease fatal
In aorder to provide funds to carry
ties and increase efficiency.
on this great work that has already
been begun, third Roll Call is sche-
duled for November 2-11, during which
time it is hoped that every member
of the organization shall renew his
membership, and pay his dollar. For
the individual this is not much, but
for twenty million individuals indivi-
duals it amounts to quite a sum.
Did you say the war is over, and
why this drive? The war against ig-
norance, and disease will never be
over, and the Red Cross is one Of the
greatest armies in this battle. When
we realize that one man out Of every
three who was examined for the army
an dnavy was found physically unfit
and the great number Of deaths each
year through ignorance, we are con
WINGED that something should be done
Here is your chance to help. Re
new Jour membership to the Red Cross

WRITE 1T DOWN

When you are tempted to worry
about something, write down the
cause of the worry on paper and that
night or at the end of the week, you'll
find it has faded away. Most of us
worry over objects that never ap-
pear or events that never take place.
And worry is the greatest enemy of
sucdess, health and happiness. SO
after this, when you are inclined to
