EPOCHAL STRIDES
IN EDUCATION BY
GA. LEGISLATURE

ATLANTA, Aug. 13.-The Geor-
ola Legislature made more progress
IN education Tuesday than it has
since the Civil War when it passed
ond sent to the Governor two of
tbo vital school measures which have
heen before them for the past two
months, first being the local school
tax law and the other ocdnfieation
and amendment of all existing school
statutes. among which is the provi-
sion that every child shall go through
the seventh grade.
The local school tax is compulsory
and provided for six months school
ing each year, the additional ex-
Dense to be borne by local taxation.
Advocates of both measures figure
that in ten or twelve years litter
acy will be thing unknown among
tbe Younger generation of Georgians.

WAYS TO CONTROL HOG LICE
Complete Eradication Is Best Secured
by Use Of Dipping Vats-Some
Other Methods.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture}
Lice on hogs can be controlled in va
rious ways, but complete eradication is
best secured by the use Of dipping
vats, experiments conducted by the
United States department of agricul-
ture show.
Medicated hog wallows and rubbing
posts, the experiments showed, kept
the number Of parasites reduced so
that they caused little or no damage,
but neither of these methods destroyed
all the lice. Crude petroleum was
used on the rubbing posts and the wal
lows were medicated with coal.tar creo-
sote dips, pine tar, crude petroleum,
and bland oils. Crude petroleum and
coal-tar creosote dips proved to be
more effective when applied from an
ordinary sprinkling can than when
used In wallOws or on rubbing posts.

Of large sities-a congestion that has
Increased during the past several
years, and that, If 1t continues, will
tend to run up the cost Of living.
Those are few Of the main reasons
why, from the standpoint Of self-inter.
st, the city automobile owner should
vote for road-bond issues.
Good Roads as Military Measure.
From the standpoint Of duty, the
military element probably takes first
place. When it became necessary two
years ago to concentrate great num-
bers Of men in cantonments, It was
found that the rOadways connecting
the cantonments with the surrounding
cities were in no sense adequate. For
the most part new roads had to be
constructed. There Is always the pos
sibility Of another such emergency,
and the only means Of insuring facile
communication is by the construction
of surfaced roads over which motor
trucks can operate.
While the security Of the nation in
such an emergency might depend upon
good roads for military uses, their serv-
ice to the nation would not be con-
fined to military matters. For a great
portion of the time during the past two
years 80 per cent Of the railroad ca
pacity Of the country was required for
military purposes. The transportation
of food, fuel and the like had to- be
accomplished largely by means other
than rail. Some hardshlps were en-
tailed. The motortruck, however, over
such roads as were passable, rendered
excellent service. When the present
bodybuilding program is carried out
and the total of improved roads is
several times larger than at present,
the service possibilities Of the motor
truck will be correspondingly in
creased and the safety Of the nation
and the comfort of the people more
fully insured.

Start fight against the weeds early
in the season.
A young weed is easier to over
come than an old, tough one.
Sweet clover must be regarded
largely as a substitute for red clover.
Sweet clover Is best cut for hay
early in June, before any buds ap'
pear.
Sweet corn and peas are products
that should be grown for canning and
drying.
Tomatoes are Of high food value be-
cause they can be canned and pre-
served so readily.
. .
Pumpkins and sQuashes can be
grown with SO little effort that they
may be considered In the calculations
A&
Beans may be considered the best
Of the garden products from a food
standpoint. These should be planted
early and late.
Do your transplanting after a rain
rather than before it. The soil works
much easier when moist and the
plants will grow better and quicker.
Peas improve the land the same as
clover and other legumes. If tht
straw is secured in good shape, it /:
almost equal to clover hay for feed

lumber Firm Buys Business Lots

The F. P. Drew Lumber company, through it's local manager, Cecil Drew, has recently made extensive purchases of business lots on Main street. One purchase was the 100x110 feet, fronting on Main and Center streets, just south of the telephone company building, s5,- 900 being paid for this lot to Mrs. P. Gettins and o. F. Teschner, the former owners.
 The Drew company also secured the lots west of them lying east of the ReXall hotel and running to Center street, a frontage of nearly half a block.
 While the intentions of the new own CTS are not made public, rumor has it that the office and yards will be moved to the last named location, while much needed store room will occupy the pres ent site of the main office and yard. This is a bold bid by a progressive firm for the extension of the business district on east of Mcdonald street to Center.
