OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O THOMAS

congratulating your friend on her
success, or telling how you make
your prize product, is well spent.
Don't try to have all sorts of nick
hacks put on the table. Agree among
yourselves what you will take and
let your dinner mean true hospital
ity, not the spirit of rivalry.
When I was a child my idea of a
land of plenty was always mental
picture of a certain neighborhood.
The people from that section came
to Madison in good clothes, drove fat
horses and had big barbecue every
year. When I grew older I found
other communities had as much to
be proud of, but the people had not
the same community spirit, and the
world didn't know them. Good
schools, good homes, and good bank
accounts are some Of the results of
the community cooperation. Every
body doesn't have to be a leader,
but the team with some contrary
critter, or enVious mind, has hard
pulling. I hope that every one of
you will make a start right away, If
you have not already done so, and
get the big day started. Don't ex-
pect the people away off to bring
dinner. Let them know that they
will be welcome. There are ten
pieces to every of chicken that is big
enough to bake or weighs over two
pounds Let that be your measure,
if there are two in family, and your
cake, bread, salad and pies will feed
at least six. Boiled ham, croquettes
and stuffed eggs will make one
chicken go long way. unless a
glutton happens to fall upon the
dish. And the committee can take
an oil stove along and sell coffee
at five cents a cup. There will be
more nickles than you need for ex-
penses, give the surplus to the
school, or community club. Get the
best coffee and make it strong, it's
easier for hot water or cream to
weaken it than for those in the habit
of drinking good coffee to swallow
sloppy stuff.
And when you decide on the day,
be sure to see If the people who
have not been in the habit of ming
ling with you are invited. If you
can't get the older ones, ask the
children to go. Tell them you will
have their dinners. Get the com
munity spirit.

HOUSE VOTES DOWN
ADJOURNMENT MOVE

BY vote of 112 to 80. the house
of representatives Tuesday morning
killed a resolution by Mr.. Culpep-
per, of Fayette, and Mr.. Hamilton,
of Floyd, providing for sine die
adjournment of the house on Wed
neSday.
Representative Culpepper. in sup
port Of the resolution, made the
point that the action of the house
and the senate in declaring last
Saturday a dies non and in extend
ing the session, of the legislature
through Thursday to make up for
the loss Of Saturday was unconsti-
tutional and unauthorized.
"The constitution Of Georgia"
said Mr.. Culpepper, who is a law
yer, provides that the sessions of
the legislature shall begin on the
fourth Wednesday in June and run
for fifty days. The 1922 session Of
the legislature will expire by con-
stitutional limitation, Wednesday
night at IL o'clock. The legislature
has no more authority to extend
the session for one day than to ex-
tend it for one hundred days. The
only extension authorized by the
constitution is in the case of an in
completed Impeachment proceed
ings, in which event the constitu-
ton authorizes the legislature to
extend the session beyond fifty days
orthe purpose of completing an
Impeachment proceeding. That ex-
ception is the sole and exclusive
exception authorized by the consti-
tuition.
I'm my opinion as, a lawyer any
act passed on Thursday will be null
and void, for the reason that the
legislature has no authority to re.
main in session longer than Wednes-
day. If we have authority to de-
clare one day a dies non, then we
have authority to declare any num-
Der of days to be dies non, and
thereby prolong the session indfi-
nitely."
Mr.. Hamilton, who is a lawyer
and a former judge, supported the
opinion Of Mr.. Culpepper. Mr.. Mum
dy, of Polk, vice chairman of the
rules committee of the house, op-
that there is a great deal of urgent
business to be transacted, and that
the loss of Thursday would neces
sarily preclude consideration of a
number Of important bills.
After the house had voted down
the resolution, Mr.. Lewis, of Col
quit, introduced a resolution to re-
quest the attorney general for an
opinion on the point raised by Mr..
Culpepper. This resolution was
tabled.
The house then proceeded with a
calendar of bills fixed by the rules
committee, the first of which was
a bill appropriating $4,000 to pay
for the installation Of a waterworks
system at the Georgia Training
School for Girls, near Atlanta. The
bill was passed after an extended
debate.
The house of representatives Tues
day afternoon voted down a bill pro
viding for county policemen the
same fees as for sheriffs, and passed
bill to pay certain counties in north
Georgia their pro-rata share. Of the
government purchase price for the
forest reserve in that section.
The house passed a bill defining
cruelty to animals"
1t passed a bill regulating the
practice of optometry, and another
bill to pay the expenses Of the joint
committee of the two branches of
the legislature which was appointed
to investigate the question Of con-
solfdating the University Of Georgia
and it's branches under one board of
trustees

Preacher Who Killed
Tennessee Man Goes
To Chair in Silence

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. Is
James McElroy, white, who shot and
killed a Roane county commissary
keeper who had refused him credit
and then prayed over the body as 1t
lay where it had fallen, went to the
chair here today in silence. He was
a "Holy Roller" q preacher, and
since being brought to the main
prison had said but little. For two
months he peered through the bars
with manical eyes that prison Of
ficials said supported the contention
that he was demented. Early last
night, touched by the singing of a
negro from his home county, the
minister broke down and wept and
prayed. 1t was the only emotion that
he displayed during his long con-
f1nement here.
Austin Harris, a negro, who had
slept soundly until an early hour
this morning, summoned religious
workers, guards and others of the
small coterie who had kept vigil at
the prison all night and made a short
statement just before he entered the
death house.
1.-THE warden and prison officials
and some residents of Nashville have
interceded for me-" he said. "Most
of these were Democrats. Governor
Taylor, a Republican, has even re
fused to come to the prison to hear
my statement. 1 want you all to
vote the Democratic. ticket in No
vember."
Harris, who killed another negro,
claimed that he did SO in self-de-
Tense and that he was without
money with which to secure counsel
to present his case when placed on
trial.
The two executions today brought
the total in Tennessee to eleven
witt the past six months.

GET YOUR FOLKS TOGETHER

Last Sunday was Homecoming
day for this community. It was
the beginning OF revival services at
the Methodist church OF this COM
munity, and there were people there,
members of the church who had not
been there for years. l heard a
young woman who has married and
lives some distance off. say that her
| mother wrote her to be sure and
come for that service. A good ser.
mon, a Gospel sermon, refreshed
| the people in the morning, a boun-
| tiful dinner was spread at noon, and
in the afternoon there was a real
| Love-feast. Many members of the
church have never attended one
and it's my opinion that the old
time fast days, Friday before Quar-
terly Conference, and Lovefeasts
are institutions that we can't afford
to let lapse. There is great need
for spiritual growth. The young
people come into the church with
plastic minds and hearts ready for
good impressions, and if we. as older
members, do not show them the DIFF
ference between the world and the
church they are bound to drift back

later years soon slip from us. But

over fifty-t1ve to repeat a verse or
a bit Of poetry they will give you
something learned in childhood.
There are always few who think

CUT RATE ON FARM !
PAPER CONSIDERED.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.-Estab-.
lishment of a special rediscount rate
of IL per cent on agricultural pa
pers is under consideration by the
federal reserve board. officials said
today. The proposal has been laid
before the federal reserve board, 1t
was explained, and action by the
board is being withheld pending
their replies, although, officials ipdi-
Gated, the suggestion was not meet
ing with favor generally.
AS suggested, officials explained,
the special farm rate would enable
banks which made loans for agricu1.
tural purposes-upon the security of
farm products-to rediscount at IL.
per cent, which is IL per cent be.
low the lowest reserve rate now In
effect, if the rate charged by the
banks to the original borrower did
not exceed per cent.
Board officials apparently differed
as to the advisabiiity of the farm
commodity rate under present com
| ditions. Some declared that in view
of the present low borrowings from
reserve banks little could be ex-
pected under the proposed rate, and
| that the banks probably would not
| take advantage of the privilege of
rediscounting farm paper at 3 IL
per cent if required to limit their
interest charges to per cent. On
the other hand, others asserted that
by making a special agricultural
rate available, farmers in some Sec
tions where banks would make the
necessary loans would benefit.
| Replies from the federal reserve
banks so far received, officials de-
clared, for the most part have
looked with disfavor upon the pro.
posed rate.

sive areas of alfalfa. Some of these
fields have been producing alfalfa
hay forS twelve years, and have
made an average yield of as much
as five cuttings per acre during
that time with a yield of between
four and five tons of cured hay
per acre. We have occasionally Sc
cured six cuttings a year, and, in
some exceedingly dry years, only
four cuttings.
Our method Of procedure, when
the condition about which you write
pertains, has been to cut the al
falfa. Sometimes this trouble has
seemed to be so severe and extern
sive that we cut the crop when it
was very small and just let the
refuse lay on the land. Sometimes
where a good development has
been made, we have cut the alfalfa
and cured and fed the hay without
any undesirable results. If it is
undesirable to handle the hay in
the manner indicated, 1t may be
clipped off. In one or two years,
it has been necessary to re-clip our
alfalfa, and this method Of treat
ment seemed to cure the trouble
and did not injure our stand.
Controlling the Weevil in Corn
H. w. NJ, Loris, S. c., writes:
have some corn that l wish to
treat with carbon bisulphide to
keep the weevils out. How
should it be applied and how
much should be used?
: A very satisfactory way by which
you can destroy the weevils in your
grain is to treat the same with car.
bon bisulfid. To this end, pour the
grain into a comparatively tight bin
or box, which you can cover secure
ly with a tarpaulin or anything else
Of sufficient size to answer the pur-
pose. Secure some carbon bisulfid
through your nearest drug store and
pour it out in shallow dishes, setting
two or three of these dishes on top
of the grain. ..
The carbon btsulfid should be used
at the rate OF IL pounds per ton
Of grain. If the bin is an open one
use at the rate of two pounds per
ton Of grain. The treatment should
be continued for twenty-four hours
If the grain is then allowed tC
aerate for thirty-six hours the odor
will practically leave it. Remember
that the treatment should be re
peated in a few days, which should
destroy any weevils which may
hatch out after the first treatment
Carbon bisulfid will not burn the
hands or injure ths clothing. It has
a very offensive odor, and being
much heavier than air, it sinks down
through the mass of grain and eff
fectually destroys the weevils. This
material is inflammable in the pres.
ence of lights. Therefore do not
handle at night. 1t is best not tc
store carbon bisulfid in the house
but keep in an out-building. Do not
smoke while handling it.
