the most effective results in tick eradi-
cation are obtained. During March
approximately half million cattle
splashed through the dipping watts in
the state. The April reports show
that S33,434 cattle were dipped under
federal, state and county supervision.
This Is a very good record, say spe-
cialists Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, when 1t is con
sldered that. Georgia Is essentially a
cOtton-g growing state and that the cat
tie industry has .beep neglected OH
account Of the handicaps presented by
the presence of ticks.
= Now all cattle that have been
dipped In Georgia are marked with
paint, and this plan has given very
satisfactory results in. getting to the
dipping watts animals pastured on the
open range that might otherwise miss
regular dipping. The use of range
riders. whose duty it is to search for
and dip cattle that are not marked
vas considerably Increased during
April.
In Georgia, as; in all other southern
states where the fight against cattle
ticks has been waged, there Is always
more or less opposition To the tick
eradication movement. Recently n
meeting was held In one Georgia town
for the purpose of protesting against
the further dipping of cattle in the
county. A progressive farmer who had
experienced unsatisfactory results In
raising cattle under tick conditions
read notice of this meeting of pro
test and Immediately wrote letter
to the president of the bank In the
town in which the meeting was held.
| In this letter he said:
Noticing In the newspapers that
your people meet opposition in tick
eradication, I desire to express my
actual experience on this line. Before

"While the treated cattle did not sub

development of the animal whose life
was saved When the history of the
deadly tick became fully known, tick

results that followed all emphasized

desires to raise cattle.

needed his moral support, can now be
found who does not fully approve the

weight than the full Endorsement and
approval of opponents when they see
the whole truth, and change from OPP

Tor he is by no means the serious,

for an American citizen, though he,
no doubt, will never be anything but a
Spaniard as long as he lives; but he
possesses the same physical and mental
activity that he so much admires in
Americans, keen sense Of humor, q

Northampton. Mass.-James Lucey,
member of shoes, is pegging away in
his shop here with one eye on the
newspapers for word of how the ma
tional capital treats Calvin Coolidge,
his one-time associate in local politics,
and now vice president.
When Vice Pr, lent Coolidge, just

What the vice president meant was

ton folk. The story goes back to the
days when Calvin Coolidge was soph-
omore at Amherst college. With shoes
to be repaired he sought Lucey's shop
on Gothic street in this city, and then
remained to listen to the cobbler's
homely comments on the topics of the
day.
Helped to Shape Career.
: The student found the shoemaker'l
philosophy so engaging that during the
remainder of his college course he
went frequently to see him. AS a
lawyer later young Coolidge opened
offices here, and while he waited for
clients, continued his acquaintance
with the cObbler. Throughout his ca
reer in the politics of the city and
state, Mr.. Coolidge dropped in at the
shoe shop from time to time to ex.
change ideas with his friend and have
the benefit of the latter's pointed po'
litical observations.
The youthful Coolidge took away
lessons from the cobbler, counsellor
Coolidge, the candidate, received the
benefit of his influence, which was
considerable in city politics, and wher
he rose to position OF state and
national prominence he still received
the loyal support of the shoe man.
Mr.. Lucey, modestly explaining tina
Mr.. Coolidge long since passed GU;
of his range of influence, admits tina
he may have been of some help wher
the vice president was on the frs
rungs of the political ladder.
Cement Closer Friendship.
The cobbler says that the only time
he ever crossed Calvin Coolidge seemed
to make tirmer the friendship between
them. Mr.. Coolidge had sought thu
