FARM PROSPERITY
IN GRAVE DANGER
Hastings Declares Greater Food Pro-
. ductlon Essential To The Main
tenance OF Agricultural
Prosperity

Atlanta, Ga-(SpeCial.)- THAT there
is large element of danger for
Southern farm prosperity in the pres
ent situation, is the firm belief of H.
G. Hastings, President of both the
Georgia State Chamber of Commerce
and the Southeastern Fair Associa-
ton.
Mr.. Hastings repeated substantially
his statement of a year ago when he
said: "Unthinking people are apt to
attribute the present measure of farm
prosperity in the South to the high
price of cotton rather than to its real
cause.
Just as soon as peace began to ap-
pear probable last fall, there was a
distinct let-up in the planting of wheat,
oats and other small grains. One
Georgia cotton farmer said to me, If
we are going to have peace, we are
not going to plant any wheat in my
neighbOrhood'
"Of course the high price of cot
ton has helped, but if it had not been
for the increased supply of bread,
meat, vegetables, grain and forage
made on the farms, there would have
been little prosperity for any one but
the supply merchant. Cotton was and
is relatively lower in price than food
stuffs, and will continue to be for
years to come.
"An extra two or three million
bales in the 1919 cotton crop will
smash present attractive prices. while
the worldwide demand for bread and
meat and the disorganization of food
production in Europe incident to the
war means high food prices every
where for years to come.
High food prices are certainty
and low cotton prices are an equal
certainty if the food and grain acres
of 1916, 1917 and 1918 are thrown back
into cotton in 1919. Herein lies the
danger to our present farm prosper
iN If we go back to our old before
the-war system of growing all cotton
and buying all food and grain, we Will
get another jolt like 1914 with rea-
sonable certainty,
present Southern farm prosperity
can be maintained in one way only
Produce on home acres, so far as pos
sible. every pound of food, vegetables.
grain hay and forage needed by fam
lily and livestock, then put every other
available acre in cotton or other cash
crop. This method means cash crops
made with little or no debt-the crop
owned by the producer at the end of
the season instead Of owed to the
supply merchant
Food and grain production suffi'
cient for home needs, insures contin'
ued farm prosperity. Dropping back
to the old way means debt like mill.

Lemons Beautify!
Make Quarter Pint
of Lotion, Cheap

Here is told how to prepare an mex
pensive lemon lotion which can be used
to bring back to any skin the sweet
freshness, softness, whiteness and beauty
The juice of two fresh lemons strained
into bottle containing three ounces of
orchard white makes whole quarter
pint of the most remarkable lemon skin
beautifier at about the cost one must pay
for small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to strain
the lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan, and is the
ideal skin softener, smoothener and beau
tifer
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and two
lemons from the grocer and make up
quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands, and see
for yourself.

GEORGIANS WILL ATTEND
NEW ORLEANS CONFRNCE

Atlanta, Ga, Jan 3l-Two pro
minent citizens. one farmer and one
a banker, are now being appointed in
each congressional district of Geor.
gia to attend conference to be held
in New Orleans on February 4 for
the purpose of formulating plans for
Il general reduction of cotton acreage
throughout the south.
The conference was called by GOV.
crnor Cooper Of South Carolina who
requested the governors of all the cot
ton states to name two delegates
from each cotton growing congression
al district in their states. and further
requested them to give their whole
hearted support to the movement for
curtailed acreage
II becomes increasingly veident
that the farmers of the south are de-
termined to make a finish fight with
the speculative interests which are
now engaged in a desperate attempt
to force down the price of cotton. Be
fore they will produce a cotton crop
at high wages and with all other
items of cost exceptionally hight. the
farmers will buy some of the cotton
which the spectators are Offering to
deliver next October and November
for II cents Il pound. which is IA good
deal less than the cost of production

PHNOE COMPANY
TO SHOW CAUSE
GEORGIA RAILROAD COMMISSION
SET HEARING FEB IL

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 31,-That the act
authorizing the President to take over
the railroads as war emergency
gave him power to increase railroads
rates, but that the act authorizing the
President to take over the telephone
and telegraph lines did not give him
power to increase intrastate telephone
rates, or otherwise labrogate or set
aside the rates fixed by state utility
commissions, is in substance the OPT
Mon rendered to the Railroad Com
mission Of Georgia by Judge James
X. Hines, their legal adviser, and act
ing on this opinion the commission
has ordered the Southern Bell Tele
phone company and two Independent
companies in south Georgia to show
cause on February II why they should
not restore the rates they have recent
ly increased in accordance with au
thority of the Postmaster-General.
The commissions order applies to
the long distance rates Of the South
ern Bell Company and to the local ex
change rates of the TWO Independent
companies, the latter being the Fruit
Belt Telephone Company at Fort Val
ley and the Consolidated Telephone
G. Telegraph Company at Moultrie On
January / the two Independent com
panies increased their local exchange
rates on permission of the Postmas-
ter-General, after having been denied
an increase by the Railroad Commits.
sion, On January II the Southern Bell
put into effect a revised schedule of
long distance rates prescribed by the
termaster-General This revision
was announced in Washington as
reduction of long distance rates, but
in actual application it prove dto be
general increase in rates.
When the case comes OF for a hear
ing before the Railroad Commission,
the telephone companies will of course
show the observation-disclosures or
ders as their authority for putting in
effects the new rates. The Railroad
Commission will then in all probabili-
ty order the companies to disregard
the Postermaster General and restore
the rates. If they refuse the Railroad
Commission will probably prosecute
the companies under its penalty pro
ceCdure
