READY FOR HARD DRIVE
AGAINST CATTLE TICKS
Hope to Clean Up More Than Ninety
Counties This Year. Were 100000
Dippings in January.

March finds preparations well I'M
der way for the 1920 campaign
against the cattle fever tick. Pros
poets for effective work are so en-
couraging that federal officials in
charge of tick eradication expect that
at least ninety counties in the vari-
Gus tick-infested states will be made
ready for release from federal quar-
antine next Dec. 1. This will mean a
much larger amount of territory
cleaned up than was placed in the free
area last year.
Only 80 per cent of the total area
originally quarantined remains under
tick domination, and it should be ma
terially reduced this year. The end
of the long campaign which began
actively in 1906 is we'll in sight, and
with continued cooperation from the
state and county governments the Bu-
reau of Animal Industry, United
States Department of Agriculture,
hopes that in not more than three
years the South will be tick-free.
According to the latest report 49,
756 dipping watts are ready for use
this spring. They are divided among
the states as follows:
Alabama, 8,O08; Arkansas, 1928;
Florida, 1916; Georgia, 1884; Louisi-
ana, 1852; Mississippi, 1924; North
Carolina, $40; Oklahoma, 1,150; South

BREAKS FROM JAIL;
HIS l8OTH ESCAPE
RING LEADER OF GANG WHICH
LOOTED BANK AT GIRARD,
ALA, DEFIES PRISON BARS

LOS ANGELES, Cal.-Roy Dicker-
son, charged with aiding in the rob-
berry of a bank at Girard, Ala, made
what is said to have been his 18Oth
escape from Jail here, when he used
a crude key on his cell lock in the
city prison, climbed up a ventilator
shaft and fled.
Dickerson's wife, who is in jail here,
said her husband was a former vau-
deville performer, making a speciality
of freeing himself from handouts
and other restraints. She told the
police he had escaped 1870 times and
that he never had been imprisoned
longer than two months.
Dickerson's cell mate was found
asleep after the escape. He told the
guards he had not heard Dickerson's
movements.
Had Escaped From Georgia Pen.
Dickerson was the alleged leader of
a band of bandits who were involved
in the looting of the Phoenix Girard
bank of Girard, Ala, and obtaining
about $4,000 in cash. He had pre-
viously made his escape from the
Georgia penitentiary in Fulton county
along with three other inmates.
The gang, after making the raid
on the Girard bank, it is claimed,
scattered and met in St. Louis for a
division of the spoils. Subsequently
detectives shadowing the bandits ar
rested Dickerson here, who, with his
wife, was living in twenty four
apartment house that they had pur-
chased.
They were going under the name
of Mr.. and Mrs. George Lynch.
The sum of $4,000, supposed to
have been a part of the bank robbery
loot, was recovered by the detectives.
They had an equity of $4,000 in the
apartment house.
Detectives declare that Dickerson
had been in the penitentiary several
times before in Missouri, Oklahoma
and Kansas, and that he had made his
escape each time through the aid of
his wife. When Dickerson escaped
from the penitentiary in Atlanta his
wife was living in a hotel in that city.
After the meeting of the bandits in
st. Louis the various members of the
band were Swallowed and the appre
hension of many of them was effected.
Seven of the gang were taken at diff
ferent parts of the United States.
Evidence indicating that Dickerson
was one of the expert yeggmen who
blew open the safe at the Fifth street
store after his escape from jail here
and escaped with nearly $4,000 in
gold and currency was discovered by
police detectives today.
The detectives believe that DECKER
son remained in hiding in the city
after his escape and participated in
the big store robbery to get money
to take him out of the state.
Dickerson escaped from the city
jail by picking the lock of his cell
door and working his way to the roof
of the building through an air flue.

CALHOUN COUNTY FARMERS
EXPERIENCE WITH PEANUTS
On Less Acreage Realized Several
Thousand Dollars More Than
From Cotton.

Mr.. C. ]. Rambo has told the Fit.
Gaines Georgian that Mr.. B. L. Jen-
kins, of Edison, who operates a 25-
mule farm on good land, stated to
me a few days ago that in 1919 he
planted a few more acres in cotton
than in peanuts. He bought $4,000
worth of fertilizer for his cotton,
but used none on his peanuts. He
held his cotton for a while and sold
the round lot for 80 cents, yet his
peanuts brought him $4,000 more
money than his cotton crop. This 49,
600 together with the $4,000 of cot
ton money he was forced to pay for
guano made his peanut crop actually
net him $4,000 more than his cotton.
He says if he had planted all cotton
and no peanuts he would have lost
money on the years work. AS it is he
calculates that he actually lost on
his cotton.

The SWEET POTATO
IS GOOD CASH CROP
BETTER MARKETING METHODS
AND FACILITIES HAVE GREAT
LY STIMULATED PRODUCTION.

During the past few years Georgia
has been producing sweet potatoes at
rapidly increasing rate. In 1907 the
crop was estimated at 100000 BUSH
els. in 1917 it reached 100000 This
great increase has been due to the stlm-
ulation given to the production of food
crops by the low prices paid for cotton
in 1914; by the boil weeyil infestatlon
of many of the south Georgia counties;
and by the high prices paid for all
food products during and since the
war, writes George w. Frior IN the
Georgia Extension News issued by the
State College of Agriculture.
The sweet potato being one OF the
South s most important food crops, 1t
has naturally played an important part
in the feeding of our people during the
irving days of the war when food be-
came the first line of defense in the
stupendous conflict.
In looking for basic and staple food
crop the farmers of the southern
state can not find a better one than
the sweet potato, because it possesses
the two prime essentials of any food
crop.
Adapted to Soil
1t is excellently adapted to soil and
climatic conditions and can be produc-
ed in quantity cheaply without making
any radical change in organization and
equipment. Also it meets the natural
and scientific desires of the consumer
1t is tasty, when properly prepared, and
of very high food value, being better
than the Irish potato in this respect
Consequently, each year the sweet po-
tato has become a greater monetary as
set to the state than it was the year
before and there is no prospect, except
ing national economic or political ca
lamity, that it will not continue to hold
its well merited position
The value of the sweet potato crop OF
the southern states was $4,000 IN
1909: $6O,O0O 900 in 1916 and $l00,000,-
900 in 1918.
1t has been during recent years that
the sweet potato has become profit
able crop when grown in quantity by
any one grower 1t has only been re-
Gently that there were markets for this
crop other than those to be found To-
cally.
Marketing Facilities.
With the organization of companies
for the storing and marketing sweet po'
tatoes this natural product of the South
came into its own for the first time in
the history of the state.
/ These companies are, as rule, paying
cash price for this product as 1t Is
/ delivered a 1.-THE warehouses at havest
ing time and thereby putting it on the
basis with cotton. They are large
enough to justify a marketing organi
cation that can not only investigate anc
make connections with the markets OF
our own cities but they can go into the
markets of the north and west to sci
their holdings.
| This is momentous progressive step
/ as anything sold out of the state is
profit as a whole. Furthermore, it re
! lieves the local markets in the fall at
time when they used to be glutted, Civ
ing to the small producer an opportun
ity to sell his crop locally at harvesting
