Sank Centre

Complete returns Of the federal
census of Stearns county for l9zo
have been made public. The returns
give Sank Centre population Of
2699, making Sank Centre the Sec
ond largest city in the county, an
increase over ten years Of 545.
Sank Centre citizens generally are
not at all pleased with the report as
it is a moral certainty that all of
the people were not counted. The
result is not surprising to the Her
aid when it is considered that the
district enumerator selected young
man, stranger, living in another part
of the county, to take the census OF
this city.
The most enthusiastic of our citi-
zens insisted that the returns would
give Sank Centre population OF
$500. The Herald's estimate has
been in the neighborhood of 1850, in-
Guiding that portion of the Home
School for Girls in the corporate

ABUSE WILL NEVER HELP

AMERICUS TINES RECORDER-~
1t is deplorable that the Georgia
campaign, as respects the preSiden-
tial preference primary of April
20, has degenerated in some quar-
tiers to campaign of mud-Slinging,
villification and abuse of a personal
nature. Which is about as certain
to result in good for the people of
Georgia as is an appeal to a Chi
nese idol to swat the. boil Weevil.
So much of heated passion is be-
ing dragged into the campaign that
the people are becoming bewildered
and befuddled, and are having less
and less chance to understand the
real issues involved. Passion and
prejudice never aided in clear, level
headed thinking. and this is a time
when the. problems of our country

This being the case, Senator Hoke
Smith should be given not only a
courteous hearing, but as general
hearing as possible when he
speaks in Americus on Wednesday

pected visit here, should be given
a respectful and conscientious hear
ing. These leaders in the contest

voters know in what respects they
differ, unless they analyze the po-
sitions Of each thoroughly and hon.
estly with themselves, they will be
dependent for their views in a
large measure upon the prejudiced
utterances of partisan commentators
er camps in many parts of the

POLITICIANS ARE

SUFFRAGE MEANS

WASHINGTON. April 6.-Bal-
lots cast by women in the coming
presidential election will fall short
of the potential mems ote by over
100000, provided the suffrage
amendment is ratified and state reg
istration laws enacted in time to per-
nit all women all over the country
to participate, according to estimates
by the National Woman's party.
With the 1910 census as a basis,
the woman's party estimates the
number of men eligible to vote at
29,577690, and the possible woman
voters at 26,SS3,566. In 1916, how
ever. the actual vote cast for all va
rious pres idential candidates was 49,
52S,743, emitting ballots thrown out
for cause, which leaves over 11,0O0.-
600 possible otes unregistered If as
large a proportion of the men voters
remain Indifferent inc the coming
election, women political leaders
here say that the eagerness of wom-

Georgia Fruit Crop Is
Apparently Safe as
Cold Wave Vanishes

1t apepars that the Georgia peach
crop is safe again.
The report from the weather bu-
reau Tuesday morning was encour-
aging.
"The temperature reached only
down to 80 degrees" said c. F. Won
Hermann. ut was about the same
rs Monday morning at 10 o'clock. OF
course this temperature is bit
warmer than it was right at the
ground level, where there was ice in
Atlanta and plenty of frost. Reports
of frost were turned in by Jackson
vile, Savannah, Macon and Augusta,
the last two reporting heavy frost.
But it did not get as cold as we
feared. and 1 am inclined to believe
the peach crop is not damaged to
any extent"
At the Offices Of the Georgia Fruit
Exchange, this view was shared by
e. w. Williams, chief clerk, based on
scattering returns just beginning to
trickle in from the peach belt.
Nothing like complete reports
yet" he said, "but 1 think the tenn
peratures were not severe enough to
do any great amount of harm"
The weather man said, prospects
were now for fair and warmer
weather; about 40 degrees Wednes-
day morning, and continuing to mod
crate during the day.

COTTON INDUSTRY
THREATENED BY
PINK BOIL WORM

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Reap-
pearance of the pink boil worm in
Texas and discovery of the insect in
Louisiana present the most serious
situation which has ever confronted
the cotton industry of the United
States, according to experts of the
department of agriculture. Unless
preventive measures be imm ediately
taken, a review of the situation is-
sued today said, the boil worm will
become a permanent and serious
limiting factor in the production of
cotton.
The drastic quarantine now being
enforced in Louisiana gives hope of
an eradication of the pest in that
section, the review said, but the
unfortunate result of the resump-
ton of cotton growing in Texas dis
tricts where the boil worm has be-
come entrenched threatens to undo
the work of stamping out the de-
Stroyer.
"As a result Of the failure of the
state Of Texas to carry out the pro-
gram of control which had been
promised, if the insect should re-
appear" the review stated, "a new
and very serious phase~6f the situa-
ton developed early in 1920. The
one drawback to success now is the
delay in Texas in establishing non
cotton zones for the infected areas,
a delay which already has resulted
in the planting of considerable areas
in cotton. Destruction of this cot
ton later on, if authorized by the
state, will simply mean that much
greater cost"
The statement added the depart
ment HAS urged from the beginning
that in view of the Sacrifices made
by the planters of the invaded dis
trict in the interests of the state as
a whole, steps should be taken by
the state to reimburse them for their
net losses.
"The strongest emphasis" it said,
has been placed upon the fact that
the determination of the insect in
Texas and Louisiana is absolutely
contingent on the prohibition of the
growth of cotton in infected areas.
The growth of cotton under restric-
ton or other methods of control will
simply mean the perhaps slower, but
no less certain, ultimate spread of
the pest"
