Mosquito Leaves
Trail Of Disease

Scientists Show Danger In It's Bite
The whole country is infested with
Mosquitoes. The Government Health
Service and every other agency
known to man is being used to ex-
terminate them. Once they were
looked upon as an annoyance only;
scientists now know that they leave
in their wake deadly disease germs,
especially Malaria. Those who are
in a position to know, vouch for the
fact that they have been the cause
of more diseases and death than all
the wars from the beginning of time.
Mosquitoes will probably never be
exterminated. We can, however, by
proper screening and spraying of our
homes daily with TORMENT rid our
household of them.
TORMENT is a gaseous vapor in
which no insect can live. Sold by
druggists everywhere.
Manufactured by G. B. Williams
Company, Quitman, Ga, exclusively.

AN OBJECT LESSON
IN ADVERTISING

when the Chamber of Commerce
authorized the purchase of $4,000
worth of registered pigs to give to
the pig club boys of the county, no
special instructions were given to the
purchasing committee and no restric-
tons made as to the breeds which
should be bought. Since two breeds
are prominently known in the county
the committee elected to use both in
the club work.
Spotted Poland China's only recent
ly introduced into the county by the
Hon. Wright T. Paulk and widely
advertised in the papers of the county
for the past several months, and the
older established breed of Hamp-
shires, largely bred by the Hon. M.
Dickson and formerly by the Hamp-
shire stock farm of the late E. K. Far
mer, but of which very little has
been said of late in the press. When
the boys, eighteen of them, gathered
at the courthouse, Saturday to partici
pate in the distribution of the Cham
Der OF Commerce pigs, County Agent
I. L. Owen wishing to be entirely
impartial in the distribution of the
two breeds was confronted with a real
dilema, sixteen of the eighteen boys,
present, announcing what amounted
to an ultlmatum, that they would not
accept anything except a Spotted Po-
land China. Since there were only
twelve of this breed to be had and
eighteen boys present to get pigs, Mr..
Owen held a preliminary drawing to
decide who shall get the Hampshires
and who would have Spotted Pol
and China with the following result:

After the drawing for the pigs.
Prof. Westbrok of the State College
OF agriculture made a brief address
on the use of Calcium Arsenate for
Boil weevils and the care of tobacco.
IN which latter Prof. Westbrook is a
specialist of wide reputation. The
pigs were on exhibition in hog pens
at the Fair grounds during the dav
and were brought to the corner of
Pine and Grant streets by the bows

was taken.

LILLY ARRIVES AT Fl. CIBBON
 ON SNOWSH0ES

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 16.-Grim. Uncle Sam Robert A. Lilly, army in. structor, has triumphed over ice and snow, rulers of the Arctic, and has brought education to doughboys sta toned at Fort Gibbon far in the froz- en interior
 A few words in a telegram from Lilly to the Ninth Corps headquarters here tell of his victory in the unique battle with the elements in bringing the printed book to the men in the land of the midnight sun. It is a thrilling story of pluck and undaunted determination on the part of the man who has just completed the harrow ing trip by foot and dog sled over sev- eral miles of ice-logged trail from the coast to Fort Gibbon.
 Lilly's trip north was the result of a promise made by Uncle Sam to give an education to the men at the fort.
 He missed connections with the boat at Seattle for his objective point, and without waiting for further or ders decided to make the trip over- land through the interior. Taking a boat for Anchorage, he went by steel and trail to Fairbanks, where he out fitted himself with dog team, furs and supplies for an overland trip to the fort that must be made if the word of Uncle Sam was to be un- broken.
 With his books and papers and pro- visions on the sled, Lilly began the march northward, over drifts and gla- ciers, along precipitous trails. For thirty days he plowed his way, aver aging eighteen miles day. He con- quered the cold, the snow, the 1oneli- ness, and last of all he downed the terrors ond obstacles of the Yukon trail, which proved such a stumbling block to the gold hunters. Victory is his-and the word of Uncle Sam to his men at Fort Gibbon is kept
