Bank Says Dairymen
Are Prospecting

A peep into the accounts of individ-
uals in THE EXCHANGE NATION
AL BANK of Fitzgerald, Ga, would
show that the farmer who has depend
ed on all cotton even when we made
tremendous cotton crops has been the
farmer who has been in debt practical
ly all the while. This same peep will
show that the farmer who is market
ing hogs, poultry, peanuts, selling
cream to creamery and growing tobac-
co is the farmer who is getting ahead
1t has gotten to where banks in this
section can be safer lending to- such
people than to ALL COTTON grow
ers. That's why you hear so much
about banks Withholding help from
ALL COTTON farmers. Banks are
doing it everywhere nearly in Georgia.
We are already lending money to sew
eral for buying mich cows
A farmer said to us that he was 60
ing to move to Florida, that there was
nothing to do on the farm here. But
right close to him was a family who
were milking several cows and getting
checks for cream, cash twice month
the Year through, was selling chickens
and eggs and some hogs, having plenty
to do all the year and getting Cash
all through the year. Was not work
ing much land either but was prosper
ing.
A dairyman from New York state
is visiting here and tells us we have
a mighty fine section for dairying and
predicts that dairying and diversified
ton will make this section rich in a
few years.
The Fitzgerald Ice Company sees it
is coming and it is Our duty to put in
cows and pour the milk into their
creamery and take back home their
cash checks every twice month for
cream and at same time get money for
the chickens and hogs we can start
off on the milk we do not market to
t!ic- creamery.
It would pay anyore to go see The
pastures and dairying arrangements at
Roscoe kimball's and the Hunter
Bros and especially what five acres
Of new grass is dong for mules, sows
and hogs at Mr.. E. T. Dunn's farm
just south Of town.
DAlRYINC, will help wonderfully
to bring back cid time prosperity in
our section and these other lines added
will help rs even in better financial
coalition than we have really ever
beer.
Some cotton Of course, on reduced
acreage. Then let's educate our peo-
pie to use HOME GROWN PRO-
DUCE. NEVER GET 1T OUT
SIDE OF GEORGIA when we can
raise it in GEORGIA.
j. E. TURNER, Vice-President.
P. S.-William Lewis, who has for
years been one of Our biggest cotton
growers, has just read the foregoing
article and is just back from Nor-h
Georgia where he bought carload of
milk cows which are to arrive today,
Saturday, and he says every word
of the foregoing is true and meritori-
GUS He is laying in about twenty
of the best mixers he can get and ar
ranging pastures and feed for them.

the selection of summer reading:
"Vahant Dust Katharine Full.
lerton Gerould. Twelve Short Stor-
les, of which the title is perfectly
descriptive. Each one reveals the
valor Of some soul at Il moment of
tense drama or moral victory. The
appeal of the stories is more intel
lectual than emotional.
Isle of Retribution, Edison
Marshall. The theme is the regeE
Grafton cf urban weal;lings by harsh
contracts with inexorable Nature,
the struggle of primitive man with
the elements. Net COrnet. the was
trrl. rich cubman and spoiled child
of Seattle, finds, in the horros of

kan coast, health, character and a
sense OF the eternal verities denied
him ia the wasted years. Incident
allv. he finds \ wife who loves him
more than her own life.
d" MIR. and Mrs. SEN Mrs. Louise
Min. The theme of the story is an
international marriage between q
wealthy. cultivated, Oxford bred
Chinese and an English girl. There
are only small clouds on the happi-
ness of their first years of married
life in England, but when the man
goes to China on a visit to his rel
atives and his wife insists on going
with him, the skies change. In
England Sen King-lo had been re-
ceived as cosmopolitan. in China
his wife is made to feel an alien
and subjected to many sights by
her husbands family. He shields
her at every turn and when she
begs him to take her back to Eng
land he yields. There he dies, some
years later, of Inconsistencies, leav-
ing two children to adjust them
selves to the difficulties of then
racial inheritance.
"Children of Men, Eden Phil
potts. In the picturesque setting
Of English moor and farm wit.
which the work of Eden Phillpotts
is so closely associated, he has
staged drama of love, jealousy
and fanaticism. Margcry and Jacob
Bul!stone, fond, prosperous and re.
spectcd, begin their married life au
spiciouslv, but when Jacobs pride
ana jealousy are arlsed by the fan
cied disloyalty Of his wife, tragedy
threatens. The long struggle be
tween Jacobs stubborn suspicion
and Margery in her proud limo

Regardless of whether or not
the individual stage operators may
row equitably claim share in the
value of the transportation bust
ness. created under the name of
United Stages, or in the profits de-
rived there from, it is clear from
the evidence that the Morgan Motor
company, H. II. Morgan and Thomas
+. Morgan were actually operating
in good faith under the name I'm
tied Stages, over the routes indicat-
ed in the tariffs and time schedules
filed with the commission on that
date. The evidence shows that re
gardless of whether or not these in
dividuals were operating in their
own right, or on behalf of Thomas
+. Morgan or of the Morgan Motor
Company on May l, 1917, they have
subsequently abandoned their oper
ations or admittedly become en-
ployees of Morgan or the Morgan
Motor company.
Fought Legal Suit
Following this decision, the re
spondents brought suit in the I'm
perial County superior court against
the United Stages ct. al, which suit
was dismissed by the sustaining of :.
demurrer filed by the defendants.

the ground that it threatened to dis
turb International relations.
RepIete With Difficulties.
A situation between Lithuania and
Poland is replete with potential diff
culties, as the Lithuanian govern
ment maintains that state of war
with Poland still exists because
Lithuania never approved the decision
of the allied council of ambassadors
turning over Wilma to Poland. Lith-
uania deems Wilma her historic and
legitimate capital, and today her
armies are stretched along the Wilma
legions
Situated at the mouth of the Me
men river, which drains the COM
merce Of Poland and also part Of
Russia, the Baltic seaport of Memel
was transferred to the allies and their
associates by the treaty of Versailles
The allies gave Nemel to Lithuania,
but Iithuania refused to approve all
the terms Of the convention which
the council of ambassadors framed
to regulate the future of the sea-
port, keeping in mind the economic
rights of the neighboring states
Appeal Made TO League.
All negotiations failed. and the
ambassadors appealed to the league
under article II of the covenant
which authorizes any member to
bring t. the attention of the council
circumstances threatening TO disturb
the peace or good understanding be-
tween nations
Discussing his desire TO have an
American preside over the commits
sion, Premier GaIvanauskas said last
night that he believed if the ATemeI
affair could be satisfactorily settled
it would have a good effect upon
Lithuania's relations with Poland,
and possibly lead to her accepting the
loss of wilma as inevitable and ir-
revocable.
