BIG MONEY MAY BE REALIZED
CULTIVATING SWEET POTATOES

been stimulated by the practicable
dry kiln storage houses and by the
successful experiments in marketing
them on the northern and middle
western markets. We need not worry
about a market, for we do not as
yet supply half the demand for our
local home markets.
Railroads. business men and pro-
duce brokers are interested in the
storing of potatoes for the purpose
of supplying home and other markets.
1t has been proven that this is pos
sible by the use of the storage house.
Therefore, the building of storage
houses and the growing of more po-
tatoes is an important and profitable
business, and will also be so on ac-
count of the high food value of the
sweet potato and the demand for
them.
The sweet potato is we'll adapted
to Georgia, especially to the coastal
plain. In adaptability they rank next
to cotton. A sandy loan with a clay
subsoil is about the best kind of soil

Kill Malaria Germs
With DR.. Williams
No. 1O1 Tonic.

Mosquito bites cause malaria. And
DR.. Williams 1O1 Tonic kills malarial
germs. These two scientific facts have
been proved over and over again.
People in the malarial sections look
upon this Tonic as the finest medi-
cine in the world. One of its ingre-
dents is Quinine, which is deadly to
the malarial germ, destroying it as
soon as the Tonic impregnates the
system and relieving the patient of
all disagreeable features of disease.
Another ingredient is iron, which
strengthens and invigorates and helps
the body to repel attacks of any all
ment. Another ingredient is magne-
STA, which keeps the bowels regular
and assists in throwing off the accu-
mutations of waste. Billions of mos
quitoes are Matching now for the sum-
mer campaign and if they infest your
section you should have DR.. Williams
101 Tonic. 1t is a good medicine for
any one in poor health.

for the potato and the largest yields
are obtained there. A very heavy
soil or deep sand are poor soils for
the sweet potato. The potato can be
raised easily and cheaply, and a good
yield can be obtained per acre. 1t is
the most staple of the horticultural
crops of the state.
There are big opportunities for
business men and others in the hand
ling and storing Of sweet potatoes.
There are cotton warehouses and
places where the farmer can sell or
store his cotton, then why can't there
be the same for sweet potatoes?
The most popular varieties are the
Nancy Hall, Porto Rico and Triumph.
This year the prices for potatoes
have ranged from $3.50 to $3.50 per
bushel for Kindred stock. For those
banked in the ordinary way from ST
to $3.50, and there has been trouble
in selling the banked potato at that,
while the Kindred potato has read
lily brought almost double per bushel
+. o. b. and the supply has not nearly
begun to meet the demand. This
shows that there is money in the po-
tat0 crop handled in the right way.
Potatoes should be graded, put IN
neat packages, such as one-bushel
crates or one-bushel hampers. They
should be harvested very carefully
so as to avoid bruising, for it is the
bruised potato that rots quickly and
IS attacked by storage diseases.
The following fertilizer is a splen-
did one for sweet potatoes: 1000
pounds 16 per cent. acid phosphate,
600 pounds cotton seed meal, 400
pounds of muriate potash. Use about
400 to 600 pounds of this fertilizer
to the acre. Potash not being avail
able substitute a mixture of cotton
seed meal and acid phosphate (half
and half, and use the same amount
per acre.
If we wish to get the best results
from your sweet potatoes we should
handle them with care, grade them,
place them in neat bushel containers
and store them in a storage house,
and put them on the market from
the middle of December through
March. You can then get the best
prices for them.
Plttsburg had two buyers in the
state all last season shipping about
20 cars per week to that city. The
middles west has also been a good
market. The South Georgia Products
Warehouse Co has sold about 1OO,-
600 bushels this year at an average
price of 50 per SO pound crate. They
could have sold ten times as many
potatoes if they had had them. They
have a number of houses of 10000
bushels each and the cost of one of
these houses is approximately $4,000

AN AGED VETERAN
TAKES ELEVENTH WIFE
WAS NOT DISCOURAGED BY HIS
FAILURES. LOST FIVE BY
FRENCH LEAVE"

Samuel j. Killow, IA years old, an
eX-Confederate soldier of Walnut
Ridge, Ark, has taken his eleventh
brides WHerNo. II was Mrs. Agnes
O'Neal. Following are extracts from
the log of Mr.. Killow's voyage on
the turbulentS matrimonial seas:
Welded FIRST in 1868.
On Dec. &c, 1868, he was married
to Miss Mary Jane Patterson. She
died in 1873, leaving two children.
In 1874 he married Lucretia San
ders, who, as he expressed it, "soon
cut loose from me-"
In 1882 he was married to Nancy
Jane Ellison, who died in 1892.
In 1894 he was married to Sarah
Ann HolcOmb, who lived about four
years.
Some time later Mr.. Killow married
Elizabeth Haws. Elizabeth left him
with the sack to hold" as he ex-
plains it.
Spouse Left for Parts Unknown.
Soon afterward he married Mary
Jane Robertson, who lived with him
short time and then left for parts
unknown.
Mr. Killow then united with Mary
Acres, a widow with six children, but
they soon disagreed and quit.
The next marriage was with Aman-
da McCritchen, who had five children.
She died.
The ninth marriage was to Winnie
Melton. Mr.. Killow says they did not
live together long enough to get we'll
acquainted.
Killow's marital log book makes no
mention of his tenth plunge into the
matrimonial sea, but he admits that
something like that occurred.

WHY UNITED STATES ROYAL
CORD TIRES ARE POPULAR
Meet All of the Requirements of
Beauty and Dependability.

Meet All of the Requirements of
Beauty and Dependability.
There was time when a motorist
in laying in a supply of tires gave
thought only to the subject of their
durability. In those days tire-build-
ing had not reached its present state
of perfection, and most of the high
ways were so bad that the driver was
constantly filled with anxiety as to
whether he could finish his journey
without tire trouble.
But tire construction has improved
to such a degree and good roads have
become so common everywhere in
the country that an automobilist
whose car is equipped with good tires
seldom worries today about blow-outs
or punctures. With the question of
dependability satisfactorily adjusted
the owner of a handsome car now is
becoming particular about the looks
OF his tires. He wants tire that in
gracefulness of line harmonizes with
the beauty Of his car and has in its
appearance that clear-cut look of
quality which stamps it as a tire of
the highest grade.
To the fact that it meets these re-
qulrements of beauty and dependa-
bility the United States Tire Com
pany attributes the tremendous pop
ularlty of its royal cord tires.

RAYMOND W. GLASS FAILS TO

automobile stealing, is still unable to
make the $4,000 bond assessed by
the court, but his attorneys are hope
full that he will succeed and will be
free within a few days. Application
was made to Judge HUMPHREYS for

The arrest of Harper, who is pro-
prietOr of an Ivy st. garage, followed
the alleged discovery in his shop of
a touring car stolen from R. S.
Dutton, a bailiff, in front of the ter
minal station some time ago Accord
ing to information coming from the
office R. C. Grimes, who
testified last week that he had been
engaged by Glass in making automo-
bile thefts, and who is now under in
dictment, stole the car and turned it
over to Glass.
It is claimed that Glass had it con-
verified into truck, and painted on it
the name of the monograph company

according to the police, with the
Identification marks removed.
Glass was in court to testify for
