The mountains are beautiful. The
air is invigorating. The lakes are
wondrous things. But the fish

your energy and your bait, and all
you get out of it is the exercise of

don't have to spend SO much time to

phase of this pilgrimage is this:
When you see those bulletins that
the Maine railroads publish about

caught, it doesn't mean that you can
catch them. Not even if you buy. a

This new discovery, which is called Alex
ander,s Rid-O-Fly, is not poison. Though
it kills flies like magic. farm animals and
human beings are not affected by it at
all. In addition to killing these insects
Rid-O-Fly is a strong repellant. Flies will
not. come near stock or buildings where Rid
Oily has T--cn used. Rid-O-F1y is partic-
ularly valuable for cows and horses, as it
is a known fact that flies do untold harm
to these animals.
So confident is DR.. Alexander that his
discovery will rid your house, barns and
live stock of these pests that he offers to
send $500 supply for only $1.0O on the
guarantee that If Rid-O-Fly does not solve
your fly prob ems it will cost you nothing

= Topping Cotton in South Georgia
H. T. D., Coverdale, Ga,
writes: How early can cotton be
topped in south Georgia My
land is capable of making a bale
Of cotton per acre where there
are no weevils. Last year on
account of the weevils I made
T. a half bale per acre. I saw
field that was topped last year
that made a bale per acre, and
I have an idea that topping it
will check the growth and
hasten maturity. I would be
glad to have your opinion in this
matter.
In our opinion, the topping Of the
cotton crop under conditions OF
heavy boil weevil infestation would
not be good practice. All of our ex.
perience- and observation tend to
confirm the Importance of encour-
aging the. cotton plant to continue
growth throughout the season as
completely as possible. The weevil
prefers to feed on the tender young
squares, and, as long as there is a
supply Of them, will give preference
thereto. Naturally this permits the
bolls which have been set on earlier
around the lower branches to de.
velop end mature satisfactorily. We
can see that land might be so rich
occasionally and conditions such as
to - encourage an unduly large
growth Of stalk, but this will be
rather an exception than the rule
under conditions pertaining to cot
ton production in Georgia. We
think that under the circumstances

Peanuts do well here as to the

our section Of the state as to the
sander lands of south Georgia. We
are disposed to think that it would
be more desirable to emphasize the
cultivation Of soybeans in north

POIi Review


 One of the outstanding features of ''The Ghost Breaker which is the picture al POlfs theatre for the first part of the week. is the long range plot from covers many thousands of miles, stretching from New York to Kentucky and then to romantic old Spain. Lila Lee and Wallace Reid are the stars of the production and gre assisted by the very humorous Walter Hiers who appears az Wally's cOlOred servant. Miss Lee is a faS Cinating spanish EenOrita and MT. Reid is the dashing American hero. This is a splendid picture combining really worthwhile plot with a lot of good comedy.
 The big man in small town, who is generally the hotel proprietor. the village store keeper, the postmaster. the dog warden. the selectman. the village band leader, the president of the Grange the church sexton and vestryman and also holds several other titles, is the leading Chara Cter in the novel little sketch entitled ''RuhevuIe." which is the headliner this week. The feature of the act is the concert by the village band.
 Full of iazZ. pep and good dancing is the sIlit entitled An Evening at Home" The participants. Walter Hall. Edith Spencer, Ruth Good Lit tie Katherine Brown. and Billy Pailey give further proof of the high enter tainmeut value of COlored vaudeville acts.
 An act which is worthy of very Snec*aI mention is Louis Hart'S Dreams of Jack and the Rna0staI Ik.'' Hart is a little man but holds five men twice his weight on his body for several minutes. The display of muscle and strength by MT. Hart is marvellous and was weII-recetyed b- the audience.
