AN UPLIFTING INFLUENCE

The state of Tennessee yesterday
by act OF the Legislature gave the
ballot to the women of that state. Dur
ing the same day the legislature of
the state Of Florida passed an act
sending the matter of votes for wO-
men to the people of the state to de-
eide in the next general election
Thus they go in one by one. Few
Georgians realize that the ballot for
woman is so nearly here to stay. 1t is
indeed now granted III practically
two-thirds of the country and the
widest field where women are pro
hibited from voting is in the south,
Slowly but surely the women Of the
nation are coming into the use Of the
ballot. When one comes to think
moment. the change is not so slow
Great gains have been made in the
past ten years. Within the next five
year there will be no state left in
the union where the women have no
right to exercise the power of the bal
lot.
Many man will chan his
mind about it in Georgia this
year and aext Some of our good
friends laugh at this predic-
ton now, but tomirrow they will
be wondering at the rapid spread of
the movement The woman through
out the civilized world will be using
the ballot as generally and as intelli-
gently as could be wished within the
ten years. That's prophecy, only
a prediction next but it is true.
There is hardly Il mark os cociai

effaced. If she were sent to the polls

SWEET POTATO DISTINCTION

SWEET POTATO DISTINCTION
The Dispatch has been watching
the revolution in the demand for
sweet potatoes. During the past three
years widening demand has helped
to make name for this important
southern food product and since the
army got hold of it last year, the
growers have had calls, repeated calls.
not wild, over anxious calls, but the
! kind that keep southern farmers well
TO the forefront if they but knew it.
The larger cities in the north have
| learned that the sweet potato is a
good food Here where we grow all
we want it is news 10 the grower that
the larger cities have heretofore
known very little Of the potato and
have used it in very limited way.
There has been no enlarged traffic in
potatoes and as a consequence, the
cities have lived without them.
Now there is an increasing call for
potatoes. New York offered $500 per
bHshel for them all last week. If New
York pays that much for them, old
Georgia ought to wake up and make
ltlnt Yankee money. There is such
thing as a potato market being deve-
Hoped in the larger cities and at
points in Georgia people are learning
about it.
Read the following from Fit2gerld:
Fitzgerald, Ga, April 16.-Eight
thousands bushels of Porto Rico
sweet potatoes were sold this
week to "A Pittsburg, Pa. company
/ ny llt tHlOH 'Wiou VII NOlh-
pany, of this city. The potatoes
were cured in the large curing
plant built last season by the To-
cal company, G. A. Newcomer,
manager for the Union Cotton Oil
company. states that his COM
rany is well pleased with the eX-
| pertinent and that the company
! will double its storage capacity
vert season The present plant
takes care of 10000 bushels.
That neighboring city, mind you,
de eloped this potato drying business
tWy years ago. Last year it was doubl-
ed. Note that the plant is going to
DIT BILE again. The drying plant saves
potatoes with less than five percent
decay, and the drying plant is no
mere than large warehouse, no
more carefully constructed than the
aN crage warehouse.
\ great money-makking opportunity
hi arrived in sweet potato grow
nc. We ought to get into il with

IL. alton. This is a business we know.
II IS one that will not require years
to know 1t is great advantage to
/ know that the world is demanding
sDMethmg we know how to make at
| the smallest cost. The sweet potato
will prove of cash value here the very
moment our farmers come into Cor
/ dee with a drying space that will
}ake care of them.
! locally we need the drying house
/ because the tables in the homes Of
. ou" own community cannot have good
sweet potatoes without it. We would
hu- many more if we could get them.
Note that the Fitzgerald lot went just
yc.;rrday. We could do as well
What we want is enough local inter-
csi in Iotato growing and preparing
