The Georgia Editor says he is going to keep
plugging away day after day and month after
month to let the whole country know Georgia's
attractions Plugging is a good word, brother
for your argument in which you lug in the
California comparison is so full of holes it needs
plugging. Come West, squire Come to Cali
fornia. Come to Sonoma county. Let us show
you our golden grain fields, our orchards and
Vineyards our contented cattle in verdant fields
olives and orange trees testimonials enough
of tropiC fruitfulness and climate of all year
charm, Then and only then will you realize
how ridiculous you must appear when you take
flier Pegasus while there are sons of Cali
fornia in your aviation camps or otherwise
marooned within the border lines of your long
since famous state

Neither have many other states but they beginning
to hear of them, and that have found method
of curing and keeping them, the whole world will soon
be clamoring for them.
Perhaps you never know it, but Georgias apples
have taken world prizes and the finest apple
land in America still be bought among the North
Georgia Hills for from So to $40 per acre.
We haven't mentioned the Georgia pecan You
grow the English walnut and tell the world of it. 1t

but after that Good Night, California Walnut! Our

but the day far distant when the great magazines
of the country will be printing page advertisements in
coors inviting that the whole nation which now knows
little of the pecan will be familiar with
and eager the Sunkist fruit from the Golden
Gate.
Yes California is great state but there are others
Georgia knows what she has, and is well on the way to
making the best of it. Laugh at Georgia if you will but
the whole nation will be paying tribute to her pro-
ducers in the of fancy prices many of her pro-
ducts which cannot be equaled by the best in California

STANDING UP FOR GEORGIA.

Under the caption "a Georgia Editor Gets Gay With
California (spelled that way, the Sonoma Calf, In
dex-Tribune attempts take the hide off the Times
Recorder because of recent comparisons in these
columns between Georgia and especially Sumter county
and California.
We might well let you know right here what the
Californian has to say-not about Georgia. for he evil
IDENTIFY KNOWS nothing about Georgia, but about the
seeming audacity of who would venture the asser
ton that there is another state the union outside of
California. Here is what he says
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1919-04-18

A YOUNG CALIFORNIA soldier who has
been located at an aviation Camp in Georgia
since he enlisted in the army from Sonoma is all
riled up because a newspaper there has burst in
to flowery song extolling the merits of Georgia
and comparing it to California, of course to our
disadvantage. The California boy who has
lived in real state is glad the Georgia Editor
has got off his chest all the hot air about
the Sunny South, but he writes to US and encloses
the rawlings of the Americas Times Record ad-
monishng us to let its Editor know few things
about California. Well first of all we admire
the spirit of the Georgia fellow, the spirit of
being good booster. In fact we didn't think
the southern states had it in 'em. Our impress
sion has always been that the enervating climate
of that section precluded all the real pep that we
Westerners know. The ozone of California
particularly that section about San Francisco
bay and the breezy Pacific ocean and that sec
ton where rugged mountains loom and the smell
of pine or redwood is swept down the canyons is
the real natural booster climate. The individual
who can rise above Georgia's climate and burst
into paeon of praise has the makings of good
promotionist but he should not linger in Georgia
He should come West that his spirit may soar,
despite the advice of the St Paul man who wrote
to the commercial secretary of Georgia to stay
Where he was because Georgia was coming into
its own. 1t may be coming but it won't get
far in race with California In fact it never
can catch up although the scribe that riled the
California soldier boy says, California cannot
hold candle to Sumter county" That fellows
bump of conceit is only exceeded by his ignorance
of California. California has outgrown the
candle stage long, long ago. We shine with
an effulgence now that is limited to no candle
power and it would make the average Georgia
man, black or white, blink with confusion and
CONSERVATION to gaze upon our richness, produc-
tivity and natural beauties
The Georgia paper says, California soil
demands irrigation We respectfully invite
the author to visit Sonoma county and particu-
larry Sonoma Galley whose verdant fields and
productive OrcndruS yleld DounteouS crops with
out drop of water other than the gentle rains
from heaven and when it comes to crops that
will interest Georgia perhaps it won't be digress-
