would in the end be charity so far as
the hospital was concerned.
You will notice gentlemen, that the
cost Of our per capita maintenance
this year is much above former years.
The hospital management has b:<n as
economical, as reasonable as pc. e5lt
in it's expenditures. but the cost OF all
our food and supplies of every kind
has so advanced that the higher per
capita cost is due wholly to that cause
and not because Of any extravaganza
in the management.
Our greatest hindrance now, in the
carrying on our work is the lack of
sufficient room to accommodate the
patients who need and wish to avail
themselves of our facilities. A serious
need is a maternity ward and an isola-
ton ward, Or means by which we
would be able to care for patients u no
develop contagious or infectious dis
eases after being admitted to the
hospital.
Work Grows.
With a better understanding Of the
hospital and it's advantages by our
citizens generally. our work has grown
year by year until it has outgrown our
facilities and the most urgent need for
lne future IN our WOTk Is enlarged
room to accommodate all our people
who need hospital care.
We feel it proper to express to you
gentlemen who represent all our citi
zers in your official capacity, the
obligation and appreciation we feel
for the kindly interest of our citizens
generally, in the institution manifested
in many ways

It is also deemed proper that you
should know and be advised of the
splendid work being done year by
year by the good ladies of the CITY who
constitute our valued and efficient
Ladies Aid society. These good ladies
supply us' with linens and household
supplies literally. the last year their
expenditures for such supplies amount
ed to s1,942.47.
These expenditures do not enter into
our receipts and expenditures in our
hospital accounts or reports.

The baby bill' passed the senate
a few weeks ago. There is very ac-

AND
ORDER TO KEEP
ASSEMBLY BUSY
Session Opens Wednes-
day; Dorsey and Hard~
wick Have Programs

ATLANTA, June 20.-Legislation
on finance and law enforcement, with
the latter again bringing to the fore
discussion of treatment of negroes
in Georgia, is expected to occupy
much of the time of the general as
sembly of Georgia which convenes
in annual session, Wednesday, June
22.
Hugh NJ. Dorsey, retiring COVER
nor, has indicated that in his final
message to the legislature he will pro-
pose various measures designed to
prevent mob violence and to change
the methods of trying persons ac-
cused of taking part in lynchlngs.
Former United States Senator Thorn
as w hardwick, who takes office as
governor Saturday, June rs, declar-
ed in recent address that while
standing for law enforcement, he be-
lieved Governor Dorsey's recent
pamphlet on "The Negro in Geor-
gia" as Islander on the state" and
that soon af ter taking office as
governor he would issue an official
reply to it.
One member Of the legislature has
publicly announced that ne intends to
offer resolutions providing for an in
vestigation with a view to remedy
ing conditions if found as Governor
Dorsey charges, or impeachment of
the governor if not borne out.
Governor Dorsey has discussed pro-
posals for changing the state law so
that state trial court could be con-
vened by the governor to investigate
violence and try the accused. One
plan, he suggested and which he Is
said to have been studying, would
provide for such a court to be COM
posed of three to five Superior court
judges with the courts grand and
petit juries drawn from the state at
large so as to avoid any possible local
prejudice in dealing with mob cases.
1t also has been indicated that in
his farewell message he will propose
establishment of a state -constabulary.
Demands that the state pass laws
covering peonage, now solely feder-
al offense, have been made in some Of
the various lettrs and cards published
in the Georgia press during the state
wide discussion Of Gov. Dorsey's
pamphlet on the negro, which various
state officials have attacked and de-
Tended. The governor has not public
ly indicated his attitude on the sub
ject.
Legislation under consideration by
the incoming governor is understood
to include the raising of the deficit
of the state through provisions for a
state income tax or registration tax.
Numerous ways have been proposed
and Governor Hardwick will select
one or several for recommendation.

Cooling Shower Is
Of No Aid To Crops

A cooling shower, but too seant to
do any good to crops, fell in Ameri-
Gus and surrounding territory Sun
day afternoon, relieving sweltering
population's- feelings and permitting
OF a good nights rest at minimum
temperature of &C degrees, the low
est in two weeks. The weather fore
cast for Monday was probable show
ers, and the farmers and fruit grow
ers, longing for moisture, took hope,
following the break Sunday in the
long dry period.
Ihe maximum temperature Sunday
was SO degrees, which was two de-
grees under Saturday, when I01 was
registered, equalling the record for
tde season. Saturday night the min
imum was 76 degrees, equal to the
highest minimum for the year.
The shower Sunday was preceded
by severe dust storm ana high wind,
which, however, was not as strong
as elsewhere. At Columbus and

the most terrific blow that has been
experienced there in eight years. Six
hundred telephones were rendered
out of commission, swhile the tele-
phone communication out of Column

U.S.. SENDS BOIL
WEEVIL POISON
EXPERT HERE
Americus Headquarters
For Man Direct From
Coad's Laboratory

Americus has been designated as
one of two headquarters in Georgia
for a government expert on boil Wee
vii poisoning by the calcium arsenate
method, who is to be at the service
of farmers without cost at all times
for the next several months in di-
recting, advising or demonstrating
the use of the poison. The Americus
headquarters will be in charge Of Geo
B. Ray, young man connected with
the bureau of entomology, U. 5. De
partment of Agriculture. Mr.. Ray
has recently spent several months at
the Delta laboratory of the depart
ment at Tallulah, La, under Director
Coad, the originator of the calcium
arsenate method of weevil controland
is thoroughly equipped with informa-
ton and experience to advise the
farmers of Georgia he will have
charge of the western half of the
state, and the eastern half will be
in charge of another expert to be
lOCdItu dC w Sly HCSpOIO-
Mr.. Rays services will be free to
anyone desiring them. He will not
only be available to farmers of this
immediate section, but answer calls
anywhere in the western half of the
state. In cooperation with George
o. Marshall, county agent here, Mr..
Ray will start his activities in Sum-
ter county with a talk before call
ed meeting of the advisory board of
the Sumter county farm bureau at
the Carnegie Library at 9:30 o'clock
Tuesday morning. Thereafter it is
expected he will make several talks
to farmers in various parts of the
county.
Mr.. Ray, in an interview. this
morning, asserted that. despite the
knocks given to the calcium aPsenate
method of boil weevil control, it is
a positive success when used accord
ing to directions.
eve have investigated 100 report
ed failures" said he, "and in every
case-not in most, but in every case
have we found that the fault was
not with the method but with its ap-
plication, either through careiessness
in observing the rules laid down or in
misinformatiOn given out by persons
selling dusting machines or others in
competent to give advice. Calcium
arsenate method is positive success in
weevii control, and every instance Of
failure the trouble will be found 10
be something other than the method.
That is why the government has sent
cut men into each of the cotton
growing states; it is important that
cotton growers know exactly how to
administer the poison to get results. "
Mr.. Ray will make his headquar-
ters at the Windsor hotel, where
farmers and cotton growers general
ly are invited to get in touch with
him.
In view of the fact that some Of
the large farmers of this communi-
ty reported failure from calcium ar
senate application to cotton last year,
the coming of this expert direct from
the Tallulah laboratory is regarded
as an event of importance to this
community.
