MOULTRIE BANKS COME
TO AID OF DAIRY FARMER

MOULTRIE, March z3-The three
Moultrie banks in a jointly signed
page advertisement announce to
farmers in Colqiutt county that they
will loan money ON easy terms to
persons who want to buy milk COWS
and help in the development Of the
dairy industry around MoultXe. The
banks look upon dairy, if conducted
along the right lines, as a highly
profitable business land point out the
fact that the creamery here offers a
cash market every day. In the face
of this fact however, the plant is
not receiving anything like enough
cream and whole milk to keep it
operating at maximum capacity. 1t
is believed the offer of the banks
will result in three or four cars of
fine milk cows being shipped into
Colquitt within the next few weeks.

POULTRY RAISING GETS
STIMULUS IN SUMTER
Donations Of Purebred Eggs To
Boys and Girls Interested In
This Work

Poultry raising is being eneourag-
ed throughout Sumter county by the
donation of pure bred eggs for boys
and girls who have heretofore gone
into the industry or who are con-
sidering this as a part of the home
economics education program.
From time to time field workers.
Of the poultry industry have been
sent out from the State College of
Agriculture to hold meetings in the
rural schools for the purpose Of
stimulating interest in fine poultry
raising. Many Of the boys and girls
have already realized nice income
from the sale of their poultry
through county fair exhibits, and
thes have Indicated their determina-
tion to enlarge their interests.
Mrs. CO r. Morgan, regarded as
one of Sumter county's most sue
cessful poultry raisers, has on
number of occasions given the club
boys and girls of the county set
tings of White 0rpington eggs or
pens of perfectly mated fowls. She
has visited their pens later to see
that proper care and attention were
being given, with the result that
much enthusiasm in the growing of
pure bred poultry is now firmly es-
tabHsehd throughout the rural dis
tricts.
Oiter fanciers have contributed to
these clubs, giving helpful sugges-
tions to the young growers on the
best methods for ultimate success.
Last year a number Of splendid pens
of fowls were exhibited by Sumter's
club boys and girls, and it is expect
ed that the fair this year will also
have contributions from their pens.
Mrs. H. J. Knowles, state secre-
tary of the White 0rpington club,
is offering to give settings of eggs
to those possessing the facility for
Matching and raising them, she re-
quests that those boys and girls who
are interested in this proposition,
write her at Cuthbert, "a, where
she will give full particulars pertain
ing to club work.
Added stimulus has been given
this industry recently through Geo.
o Marshall, county farm demonstra
ton agent, who has asked Sumter
farmers to contribute to carload Of
chickens TO be sold here soon after
April /. Marshall has visited the
various clubs throughout the coun-
ty in his work, encouraging the
young boys and girls to add poultry
raising to their home economics pro-
gram, showing them by figures the
results obtained in money and good
to the county.

KILLING IN WEBSTER AS
RESULT OF GAMBLING

RICHLAND, March 23.-A negro
was found dead near Churchill in
Webster county yesterday afternoon
and six other negroes have been ar
rested and lodged in Jail at Preston
by Sheriff C. NJ. Christian as being
implicated in the murder. Nothing
definite has been learned of the
cause Of the killing, as all the six
arrested deny any knowledge of the
murder, but the general supposition
of the officers is that "skin" game
was on, and the murdered negro
must have been the winner in the
game. The six arrested will prob
ably be held until the Webster grand
jury meets on the first Monday in

Then it's possible that the pre-

there'd be national election with

Anyway, an elections what things

tha's what always happens in Eng

that there's a maximum of seven
years fixed, whenever there's any
doubt which party in parliament

And election would be sure to
mean a victory by the moderates

antl-capitalism proposals of PhiHp
Snowden, who even among radicals
is considered pretty pronounced in

SAME AS IN
THE u. s. A.

The British Conservatives and
Liberals are conservative and lib
eral respectively in about the same
sense that Republicans are repub-
mean and Democrats are democratic
in the United States.
That is to say, they have their
political contests between themselves
and sometimes get pretty sore over
them, but each would rather see the
other in office than have third par
ty break in. Before they'd permit
such a thing to happen, there's no
doubt they'd unite, and together
they'd have large majority over
the Labor vote.
Just to Illustrate that they're not
lrreconcilablys far apart, Andrew
Bonar Law, now the Conservative
leader and premier, didn't object to
holding office for several years in
the cabinet Of David Lloyd George,
who is head Of the Liberal minority
in Parliament now. Mr.. Lloyd
George, on the other hand, though
pretty advanced in some of the
views he expressed in his younger
days, has so far toned down. his
ideas with years that the Conserva-
tives seriously considered for awhile
the plan of conscripting him to lead
themselves-and almost certainly
would, if he'd given the. word, which
he didn't do, not because he wasn't
conservative enough, but because he
had other political ambitions of his
own.
