Georgia, as general thing, will
make a good pecan crop this year. All
the older trees are loaded with nuts
and the season will be very satisfac-
tory one. Groves from Is to 30 years
old are expected to bear a large crop.
A conservative estimate of the South
Georgia crop this season is given at
100000 pounds by some correspon-
dents. Because of the short crop in
Georgia last year and the total failure
of the Texas crop, there are practi-
cally no hold over nuts. reporters say,
and the growers will find all the mar
kets clean this fail. High prices are
anticipated for the new crop.
Disease control and sanitation are
among the most important things in
poultry management. Lack of know
ledge of. the presence of disease and
the method of combating it or the
non application Of this knowledge has
caused many flocks to be destroyed
in a very short time. The annual loss
is large. and yet it is preventable.

The average price of a motorcycle at
present in Australian cities is 1926.
In 1911 it was 1915, and in 1914, 1866.

HER LIFE AN INSPIRATION
Difficulties Overcome by Helen Keller
Should Shame Any One From
Dlseourasement

Mark Twain once said, The two
most interesting characters Of the
Nineteenth century are Napoleon and
Helen Keller" Helen Keller, the De
,rOlt News recalls, was q normal child
until l9 months old. At that time a
serious illness left her blind. deaf
and dumb. Even during these early
years In the dark she learned many
things through the sense OF touch Her
chief playmates were little colored
girl and an old setter dog.
She was nearly seven years old
when a teacher was found to under
take what seemed an impossible task
This teacher, Miss Anne Sullivan, be-
gan at once to talk into her little
pupils hand with her fingers. The
first word Miss Sullivan spelled into
her hand was doll; the next word
was cake" The words were quickly
spelled back, even before the little girl
knew what they meant. Very soon
however, the spelled words with the
hand language were connected with
a real doll and real cake. Within q
month she knew thirty words and
could talk them back with her fingers.
AS soon as she grasped the thought
that all objects have names she
learned very fast. Within three month;
her vocabulary had increased to about
800 words, and within year to sO'
words. She Is now q noted writer
and lecturer.

When One Mentions "Fish," the Sylla'

.All Is not fish that swims" reflected
the sapient philosopher as he beheld

that conclusion.
The whale. for instance. although II

The seal Is closer kin to the dog than
to the fluke.

only the verb form, ITO fish," Catch

Little Rock, July 9.-R. C. Limerick, state highway engineer, is in Miller county inspecting district work. It Is announced by State Highway Commis- sioner Wilson that it will be the policy of the commission to keep Mr. Liner ick in the field at least one half of his time. This is radical departure from the custom followed heretofore Another change proposed is to divide the state into four or five districts, with resident engineer in each. The road improvement district engineers would then report to the district en- gineers, instead of directly to the state engineer. This is the system that is used by the government. Mr. Wilson says that he hopes there vii be a very considerable resumption of highway construction within the next thirty days.

FRANCE TO AUGMENT
 AVIATION SERVICE
(By the Associated Press) ]

Paris, July 9.-A fleet of 1000 air planes, suitable for war, is proposed in a bill now before the chamber of deputies. It is planned to establish and operate these warcraft commeu cially so that the cost to the govern ment would be little if any more than under it's present policy.
 The author of the measure, Deputy Paul Benazet, called attention to the large and expensive aviation person. nel of the government (which con- sumes but does not produce".
 Strongly advocating the creation -- a great, protecting aerial force, M. Benazet, urged that the government create a corporation to operate com mercially, transporting passengers and freight and establishing air postal routes, thus training aviators, devel- oping aviation, cementing relations with the colonies and meantime keep ing the fleet ready for immediate con version to war purposes.

HOT, DIZZY FEELING
Atlanta Lady's Uncomfortable and Annoying Condition Relieved,
 She Says, by Cardui.

Atlanta, Ga-Miss Alice Frances Young, of 28 East Alexander Street. this city, says After entering wo- manhood, 1 suffered so much with womanly weakness. My back ached would have, at certain times, a hot feeling that seemed to go to my head. Even my shoulders would hurt, and 1t made me very dizzy and unco4nfort- able. When the blood would flow to my head-I suppose that was what it was--I would faint and feel so weak.
 T couldn't do my work. l had a good position, and this was surely annoying as well as embarrassing. would nsnallv have to go home and go ro ped. l certainly suffered greatly.
 "I heard of Cardui, and my mother bought 1t for me. IL was the first and only medicine that ever did me any good for this trouble
 Dizziness, headache, sideache. back ache. tired-out feeling and other dis agreeable symptoms are often signs of womanly troubles Thousands of wo- men who formerly suffered from these and similar ailments have found Car dui very valuable remedy.
 Cardui Is composed only of pure, vegetable ingredients which have long been recognized as of medicinal value in the treatment of many diseases and disorders peculiar to women.
