ed the city of Lewiston to build a wa

1000 people of Calhoun and sur
rounding counties enjoyed the big
community rally held here Friday.
The purpose of the meeting was to
bring the people of this section to-
gether to arouse more in the safe
farm program that mas been adopt
ed in this county.
A local warehouse was transform
ed into an auditorium, and he co
pie gathered there early in the morn
ing to engage in a community sing
ing, after which the welcome address
was delivered by H. T. Singleton.
DR.. T. H. Mediation, of the Georgia
state college of agriculture, was then
introduced by County Agent 4. e.
Gibson. DR.. Mediation urged the
farmers TO not plunge into the dairy
and poultry business unless rome
preparations were made to furnish
feed, without buying it. He declared
that many farmers i'll Georgia are
today receiving only fifteen cents out
Of every dollar derived fro.l their
dairy products, the remaining eighty
five cents going to pay the feed mer-
chant.

Judge A. J.. Miller, and stated that
over a hundred millions of dollars
were being spent in the state for
things We should produce, such as

six-cent gasoline-no bootleg stuff
but real high grade flivver- hootch-
came to Los Angeles is the story OF
a game guy with an ace in the hole
and asltrick sign,
Part of this story is the announce
ment of a newly discovered refining
process by which gasoline may be
produced and sold at a profit for a
nickel a gallon, on the basis of pres
ent prices for crude oil. And if this
merely means may be" it is Curl
Gus how it has the big fellows grog.
gy in the merry gas war that has
been cut loose in this section of the
land.
1t is a winning bet that John D.
Rockefeller never even heard of Roy
Gehr. Leaving John D. out of it,
it is the same kind of a bet that the
big oil concerns never heard of Roy
Gehr-before a few days. ago. But
today they have heard Of him and
that's what's worrying them.
For Roy is one of those mouse
trap boys in the wilderness, with
the world beating a path TO his door.
Gehr leased a corner lot well out
toward the suburbs and opened a
filling station. One of the large oil
concerns-one of the big four, as
they are known out here-had its
own highly ornate filling station
about a hundred feet across the
street. The lowly newcomer was
frowned upon for it's impudence, but
pitied for it's impotence. That's the
way matters stood a few months
ago when the big four had the sit
uation in hand.
Begins Price Cutting
A few days ago Gehr started
something. He began to cut prices
on gasoline. Other so-called indie
pendent filling stations quickly fol-
lowed suit. But Gehr held the lead
and autos began :, to swarm about
his place like bees after honey. The
men in the nearby filling station
were ordered to put the crusher on
