OF government officials from the bu-

inspecting various sites i'll the south
western part of the state for the cree
ton of an experiment station to test
the making of sugar from sweet po-

The decision will be made here by

A very small sum is now available

CUT COTTON COST
BY MAKING FOOD
SOUTHERN FARM PROSPECT
TY DEPENDS ON PRODUC-
TON OF FOOD CROPS.

Atlanta, 9a.-(Special.)-"A right
about-faoe movement In 1921 is necee-
sary IL the farmers of the South are
to get on safe, firm ground again"
said H. g. Hastings, President OF the
great Southeastern Fair.
1T looks as If we all went cotton
crazy last spring, despite all the dan.
ger signals flying and the disregard
of plain facts as to costs OF cotton
production. We have repeated our fol
lies of 1911 and 1914 and piled up
debts based on costly food and grain
to be paid for by cotton that is now
below cost of production.
with few exceptions those items
of food and grain could and should
have been produced on home acres
at one-third to one-half what the sup
ply merchant charges for them.
Cotton is the one best money crop
for the South, and probably always
will be. The time of war prices Is
over and the problem from now on is
to lower cost of production and at the
same time afford the cotton grower a
fair profit.
Cost of making cotton is primarily
the COST OF 1000, gram anu Aol oSS
for the farmer, his family his labor
ers or tenants, and his work stock
Cutting food, grain and forage costs
by home production will reduce cot
ton costs from one-third to one-haf
PLANT for an abundance of food
grain and forage, thus cutting down
store bills, and the lower prices for
cotton will not hurt so much. We can
not, with European countries so thor
oughly disorganized, reasonably expect
high prices for cotton for several years
and we must make cotton at lower
cost, or else quit cotton growing.
Most of US cannot quit cotton,
hence the absolute necessity of food,
grain and forage planting in 1871
the making on home acres OF every
pound of food and grain needed to see
US through.

ATTEMPT TO ROB
PLAINS BANK FOILED
WATcHMAN'S RUSE TO CALL
CITIZENS. BELIEVE SAME
TRIO VISITED SASSER.

A trio of bandits who attempted to
rob the bank at Plains were foiled by
the presence of mind OF ]. c. AIRING
ton, policeman who was on duty
that night Upset in their plans by
his actions, the robbers remained
about the bank building for an hour
and half with the policeman inside,
and finally, when he summoned citi-
zens by telephone, they fled.
The police who are on duty at night
make the Plains bank their headquar-
tiers, keeping a fire there and having
KEYS to the outside, coming and going
during the night as they choose.
Mr.. Arlington, who went on duty
at midnight, was sitting by the FIRE
when he heard some one rattle the
blinds at the rear and then at the
side of the bank building next to the
Plains Mercantile company.
Three Men Wore Masks.
Soon three men in black masks APP
peared at the front of the building, two
of them at the window and one at
the door. AT once they covered Ar
rington with pistols, calling to him to
throw up his hdndS.
Instead OF raising his hands the of
fcer tipped his chair backwards and
fell into the entrance to the cashiers
box, out of their sight. He kept I'M
der cover and the robbers didn't at
tempt to break into Nthe building, but
hung around for an hour and half.
Finally the policeman crept to a
bucket OF water which sat near the
CRATE, and grabbing it quickly threw
it onto the fire, extingiushing the
blaze and putting out the light. Know
ing they could not then see him he
called the night telephone operator,
and asked him to arouse the town.
The men, hearing the telephone i'll
action, knew it was time to travel and
disappeared.
Strange Car Disappears.
In a few minutes cars were bring
ing citizens from various part Ot he
town. The first arrivals reported seeing
no other cars about the place, but it
developed later that car with lights
on was seen standing in front OF the
hotel about this time, facing the west,
and it disappeared during the excite
ment unobserved by anyone. That is
the only clue obtained as to the pos
sible method of flight employed by
the bandits
Next morning Sheriff Christian of
Webster county, who was notified OF
the attempted robbery, stated that he
had been told by a special agent of the
Seaboard railroad in the last day or
two that Seaboard detectives had been
trailing three men who were suspect
ed OF robbing the Bank OF Sasser a
few nights ago and they had been
Swallowed to Cordele, then to Savan-
nah and then back to Plains, where one
of them got off the train while the
two proceeded to Plains.
A strange man had been observed
about Plains for two or three days be-
fore, the attempted robbery.
