pense OF $500 per year per student,
the state would lose $i.s2o,ooo per
annum from $500 students. As the
actual expense per student probably
would average far In excess Of $500
a year, counting railroad fare to and
from outside institutions II Is certain
that the direct annual economic loss
to the state would be at least the
amount stated above.

pie are IN q position TO Judge the real
worth of MIR. Sinnott like Mr.. Nc
Arthur Is. and his unsolicited letter
speaks for itself. The Herald, Mr..
Sinnott's close friends. most OF his
constituents. do not fear about his
election, but they do not want any
considerable number OF voters to
forge, themselves and cast even
complimentary vote for the gentle
man who is running against him.
Let the people Of the second con
selfish for once ard consider and
vote for their own interests. No
man In either branch Of congress can
do a. much for the district as Con-
gressman sinnott. He Is the biggest
man in the house OF representatives,
30 far rs the west Is concerned. Let
US show him by our votes that We
want him TO stay there; TO keep his
eye on our interests; to work for the
district in general. and klamath
county In particular. There should
not be . single vote cast against Mr..
sinnott in Klamath county. nor In
the district. for that matter.

Dear Wesley:
Although ! am not a resident OF

the liberty Of addressing you in be-
half OF the candidacy OF my col
league n. J. Sinnott for renomina-
tion for Representative In Congress.
have known sinnott since my In
fancy and have served with him here
for nearly five years and am in a po-
sition TO testify as to his high char
acter and splendid ability.
Sinnott has an excellent record In
Congress and enjoys the respect and
confidence OF his colleagues. He Is
able. industrious and patriotic. and
devotes himself whole heartedIy TO
his constituents. He has risen TO
the chairmsnship OF the Committee
on Public Lands and is doing splen-
did work for the west on legislative
matters before that committee Ore
gon and the west can i'll afford TO
lose his services. and the country
needs men OF his caiiber In Congress-.
I certainly hope that the Republi.
cans OF the Second District will re-
nominate Sinnott and that he will be
reelected in November.
am glad to count myself as
personal friend OF sinnott. but am
not writing this letter on that ac-
count. have a larger interest In
the matter-that Of one who feels
that the best interests OF the state
and nation demand sinnotts re-elec-

plete, DR.. Ramsay
Tells Stocknen

MONTGOMERY. Ala, Jan. 28.-
Cattle tick eradication in Southern
states is now in a somewhat critical
condition, DR.. R. A. Ramsey, chief of
tick eradication of the Department of
Agriculture's bureau of animal in
dustry, told the Southern Cattlemen's
Association today and an energetic
drive, he said, should be made, espec-
tally in states where tick eradication
is nearly completed, to speedily fin
ish the job. The possibility of politics
interfering with the work was pointed
out by DR.. Ramsay.
''There is imminent DANGER" he
said when any state becomes care
less about discontinuing tick eradi-
cation when there are still a few
counties or localities or small centers
where tick infestation exists. The
infestation in these centers, if not
completely eradicated, is going to
spread. Furthermore, these small
centers are liable to be used by poll
ticians for purpose of barter. This
has been demonstrated in Virginia,
where these tick infested counties still
remain in quarantine because certain
state officials and livestock sanitary
officials saw proper to trade off tick
eradication for a few votes on some
other legislation"
DR.. Ramsay said southern cattle
men could relieve men directly en-
gagged in the actual work of tick Grad
ication of the responsibility of OBJ
tanning appropriations and enlisting
the moral support Of the state legisla-
tors and executives. He suggested
two members of the association should
personally visit each state legislature
and discuss with the various commit
tees and the governor the needs of
tick eradication.
The work of the cattlemen's asso-
citation, he said, had been of great as
sistance in the past and the cattle
tick had been eradicated from $685.

was sold today by j. H. Purvis to j.
W, Howard for $46,6S7 cash, or at

Sumter county in long time gives
Mr.. Howard 1,700 acres in one tract,
the Huntington tract adjoining land
already owned by him. The land ac-
Quired by him is among the finest
farming soil in this section.
The deal also puts Mr.. Howard in
the front rank of South Georgia

has been forging rapidly for several
years. Starting few years ago with
small resources other than energy and
ability, he has acquired this large
tract of valuable land, all of which he
is forming by modern methods. AT
