WEEK In STOCK

Line Between Demareation and Spec

(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Jan. 29-The line of
demarcation between speculation and
Investment phases of the securities
market became more clearly defined
this week. Stocks az n whole showed
Increasing dullness and irregularity,
while new capital offerings in large
volume were readily absorbed.
These contrary conditions found
their NOSE tangible expression in the
heavy over SUBSCRIPTIONS to the Bel
CLAN government loan. the Pennsyl-
vania railroad bond issue and various
other undertakings of scarcely less
importance.
1t was shown that investors meas
ured their commitments in terms con-
forming TO higher living costs, all the
new offerings yielding interest rates
OF IL per cent or better.
The money market firmed by 1t for
mer trends, recent forecasts of con-
servative banking interests who open
ly discouraged the hope of easier rates
during the first quarter or the critical
period of the current year.
Movements of stocks were governed
TO an unwonted degree by the day to-
day operations of professionals. Eff
forts OF the bulls to convert paper
profits into cash frequently failed,
while the small available supply of
certain of the more speculative issues
rendered short selling somewhat haz-
ardous.
latest financial statements of such
representative organizations as the u.
S. Steel and Bethlehem Steel corpora
tiors offered additional proof of the
transitory state OF the industrial sit

road shares indicated that transpor-

Follow The Right
Prescription.

Atlanta, Ca, Jan. 13.-An At
lanta banker, John X. 0ttley, pre-
lsident of the Fourth National Bank
, OF Atlanta--has recommended a
prescription in connection with the
business outlook which the average
man can well afford to paste in his
hat. 1t is this;
THE general situation is better.
In the phrase of the doctors, patient
isn't nearly so sick as he was, his
pulse is stronger and his will-power
is on the mend. lie never was i'll
actual danger that the ever-anxlous
ones feared and his prospects for
recovery are frightening. II every
body would help in the process OF
restoration, the entire community
would feel the good effects. The
general commercial health would be
improved. The way to do this is
simple and practical. The pre-
scription is adapted to every type of
individual and business. 1t is about
this:
Work hard, harder than ever.
Spend less. Save money, more
money than ever. Don't expose
yoSrself to pessimistic influences.
Keep cheerful in walkland CONVEX
sation. Don't get excited. Sit
steady and cultivate patience.
IF this prescription be followed
with determination and regularity
by the people, it will my opinion
prove a cure for most Of the COM
mercial distempers Of the day.

Albany Man Sucks
Rattlesnake Poison
From Dogs Veins
Quick Action Of 0. E. MOnfOrd
Saves Life Of His Bird Dog,
Says Veterinarian Who Later
Treated Bitten Animal.

How much do you love your dog
Or, how much do you love any
dog?
Would you suck the poison OF a
rattlesnake's bite from a dogs head
if he were bitten?
That is what an Albany man did
recently.
Many stories have been written OF
the faithfulness of dogs to their
masters, of how they will endure
the most terrible suffering, will re-
main faithful through the most try
ing circumstances, will even give
their lives for the human beings
they love, but rarely does one hear
Of a man loving his dog enough to
extract the poison of a snakebite
with his own lips.
Mr.. o. e. Monford, of the
Monford Menget firm OF cotton
brokers, was hunting recently with
Mr.. H. F. Manget, when the two
came suddenly on rattlesnake in
the grass. Mr.. Manget shot the
snake, and the bird dog ran in to
retrive it. The snake struck at the
dog and buried its fangs in the dogs
head above the left eye.
Mr.. Monford without moments
hesitation called the dog, and, by
sucking extracted the poison from
the wound. The two hunters then
hurried to the city and turned the
dog over to veterinary surgeon tor
treatment.
There was considerable swelling
in the animals head, and the sur
geon said the dog would undoubted-
|ly have died had it not been for the
thoughtfulness Of Mr.. Monford. -

HALF YOUR LIVING

Cotton Production Costs Can 30 Cut
in Half BY Food And Grain
Making And Saving ~

Atlanta, Georgia. Especial -"High
priceS for cotton, such as we had
year ago cannot reasonably be. expect
ed for long time to come. European
countries that normally use half our
crop are so thoroughly, disOrgant4ed
and paraIyzed In a business, way that
they will not be able. to take the
usual quantities and pay high@ prices
for many years to come" said II. q.
Hastings, President Of the great
Southeastern Fair.
"This situation which we cannot
control, calls for lower costs Of max

and most effective way to reduce cot

"The situation requires chickens,
hogs, milk cows and acres OF corn

Last, but not least, in importance, Is

take the home garden seriously and
thereby make great mistake. There

Buy Georgia
Manufactured Goods.

|
Atlanta, Ga. Jan. 13.-"If every
Georgia consumer during this yeai
were 10 follow The habit of calling
for Georgia made goods who can
estimate the enormous encourage
ment and benefit to those manu-
! factuler who have cast their lot in
the state"?
The foregoing question which has
just been propounded by a business
man, not manufacturer, is calcu-
lated to start the average Georgian,
who loves bis home state, along a
new line of thought.
The question might be put diff
ferently with good effect.
Why should Georgia people pur-
chase elsewhere the same kind Of
goods as are manufactured in Geor-
gia when they can be bought just as
cheaply in the state, and this, when
the state needs the work and also
the business?
And if every merchant selling
goods in the THE Empire State .of
the South" were to cooperate with
manufacturers of the state IN ex-
hibiting their goods, not only, but
in informing their clientele that
that they handle Georgia-made
goods, who could say how great
would be the stimulation to ether
manufacturers in distant and nearby
states toSc0me and grow and prosper
in Gsorgia2
1t is a popular and pleasing thing
to hear a newspaper or citizen
boosting his city and state. But
unless that faith and. loving kind
ness and lip-loyalty BE converted
into concrete support what shall it
profit the state?
Georgia coi,not live unto herself
alone. There must always be a
great interchange with outside ma
nufacturers. But~it is amazing that
any merchant should be constrained
for all instant to go to distant mark
cts for goods, such as dry goods,
boots, shoes, hats, meats, feeds and
grains, corn meal, macaroni when
the same can be bought Of the near
est wholesaler at prices as cheap,
and probably cheaper.
Why not begin now to form the
habit OF asking for Georgia made
goods, or goods handled sby those
who are doing business in Georgia?

Apologies.

Through the mails Monday
received letter from Mr.. E. B.
Lee, retiring Chairman of the Com,
missioners OF Lee County in regard
to the little news item headed
New Commissioners in Session

in this article and in second para

of Lee County can now rest assured
with these gentlemen in charge Of
the County's affairs that their inter.
ests will be taken care Of. " Ii i

late petition asking them to
resign-which every citizen il the
county l am sure would have been
in favor, ot-but knowing these
gentlemen as / do Il can still say |
am sure our interests will be taken
care Of"
Now as to Mr.. Lett is not
my intentions to cast reflections on
any one, and if Mr.. Lee feels that
