that, however, means nothing" Sc
froths Senator Dill of Washington.
The frantic attempts of some so.
called progressives to connect Cool.
idge with Waila street is really pa.
thetic. Poor little Coolidge probably
doesn't know a soul in Wall street
but he has the satisfaction of know
ing this: He knows he was nomin-
ated by an overwhelming majority
vote, and he knows the vote in the
convention came to him because
delegates got the voice Of tn epe.
pie in no uncertain terms by direct
primaries that were held from coast
to coast.
All of which reminds us of what
McAdoo, Bryan and others said of
Davis before he got the nomination.
Then it took Bryan's brother to get
Bryan, and three days to get McAdoo
to publicly state that Davis was
a progressive. Senator Dill probably
says this also 'means nothing" but
a lot of good citizens are still won-
dering just when these gentlemen
lied, before or after tn convention.
The words used above by Senator
Dill "mean nothing" except that they
reveal again the calibre of our junior
senator, who trys to convey a false
hood in a cowardly manner.

C. w. BRYAN

II Asst WEEK this paper freely
~ complimented the democrats for
selecting John w. Davis as presi-
Dental nominee. This week we feel
just as free to state that we believe
they have nominated a very ordinary
ticket, as they stopped to political
expediency in naming C. w. Bryan
as vote catcher.
In our opinion the people of this
country are thinking less of names
and locations than they are Of real
men, yet every one knows that c. W.
Bryan was chosen for the double pur-
pose of lining up his brother Bill
and at the same time to kid the ig-
norant and uncouth western voter.
Here, we believe, the democrats
made mistake, as the westerner is
just as earnest in his desire for eff
ficient administration as is his broth
er from the east. The westerner
knows also that presidents often die
and further they have enough know
ledge of politics to know that Broth
er Charlie would still be running a
cigar store in Omaha if Brother Bill
had left him alone.
When w. j. Bryan spoke before
the New York convention he named
lot of men whom he thought would
make good presidential timber. When
he mentioned his brothers name the
convention laughed. Then this same
convention turns around and insults
the country by naming poor old
Charlie on the ticket. We are re-
minded Of the old quotation of Wood
row Wilson, "molasses to catch flies. "

THE new Seattle city council, at its
= first meeting unanimously indoors
ed the Bone Bill Initiate Measure No,
SO, and at the same time received
with favor the recommendation of
Mayor Brown that work on Seattle's
Skagit river project be carried for
ward at an additional estimated cost
of $5,OOO,00O.
In other words, Seattle politicians
seek to advertise to the rest Of the
state that the city is willing to gam
BILE another $5,O00,OO0 of taxpayers
money on the Skagit if the rest of
the state will come into the game and
pay the bills. This is right in line
with the work now being done in
Seattle by solicitors for signatures
to the Bone Bill initiative petitions.
The argument used on Seattle voters
is that Seattle is now so deeply in
debt on the unfinished and uncertain
Skagit project that there is no chance
of pulling out unless the rest of the
state can be induced to adopt the
Bone Bill and thus be made to help
pay the extravaganza cost of the Ska
git development.
The Seattle councils endorsement
of the Bone Bill was to be expected
Seattle is in a bad hole on all of its
municipal ownership ventures. Even
Mayor Brown has had to recommend
abandonment of Seattle's Cedar River
power project on which, he declares
more than three million dollars has
been wasted. More than $11, 600, 600
has been spent on the Skagit project
which is still far from completion; anG
Mayor Browns suggestion that $5,-
000, 900 will have to be spent is prob.
ably no better than anybody else's
guess would be. According to the
original estimates the whole Skagit
project was to have been completed
for less than 100000.
1t is evident that Seattle has rea-
ched the point where the resident tax.
payers won't stand for much more
useless expenditures. That is why
the rest of the state is called to the
rescue. That's the big reason for the
Bone Bill.

The Cotton Club boys of the coun-

was done by the recent heavy rains,
but these young farmers are not dis
couraged. They are determined to
succeed in spite of difficulties. You
can help them them to succeed by
speaking an encouraging word to
them when you have an opportunity.
Some will begin hopping their cot

we are endeavoring to demonstrate
that it is both practical and profit
able.

COOPERATIVE PLANS
Mr. Conwell Tells Growers Detail
About Work of Marketing
Cotton Under System

About seventy farmers of the Pow
der Springs community heard ]. E.
Conwell, president Of the Georgia
Cotton Growers Cooperative Asso-
citation, deliver powerful lecture on
COOPERATIVE Marketing" at Powder
Springs on last Friday night. Mr..
Conwell went into detail regarding
the cooperative sale Of cotton as
handled by the cotton association and
cited specific cases where the assoc
citation had been Of real value to the
farmers of Georgia in the sale of
their cotton. He stated that the as
sociation had representatives in Rus
STA, Liverpool, Germany and other
countries and that the sale and only
business of these men was to look af-
ter the interest of the association.
Mr.. Conwell stated that the results
of the drive for members which the
association is now putting on in
South Georgia Is entirely satisfactory
and that hundreds of farmers are be-
ing added. IL pleased Mr.. ConweIl
very much to know that Powder
Springs community had a membership
of 1903 In the association.
Mr.. J. B. oglesby, cashier Of the
Bank Of Powder Springs, states that
the tomato project is making salts
factory progress. Quite a number
have planted their seed and some 200
acres are expected to be grown un-
der cooperative contract.

EARLY POISONING IS
VERY IMPORTANT IN
FIGHT ON WEEV|L
Seventy Per Cent of Weevils Re-
turning From Information Can
Be Killed in Time

"Since it is recognized that boil
weevils can easily be poisoned while
feeding in the terminal buds before
squares form, the question naturally
arises as to what per cent of the Vice.
wills are out of Information and in the
field by the time the first squares be-
gin forming.
at seems safe to say that on an
average 70 per cent of the weevils
that emerge from Information are in
the field before the first squares be-
gin to form. Since it has been dem
onstrated again and again that an APP
plication of poison this time will kill
practically every weevil in the field,
it is obvious that this early poison
ing is very important, preventing as
it does more than 20 per cent of the
over-wintered weevils from raising
any progeny at all to damage the
crop later in the season.
According to the record, the first
squares found at Holly Springs Ex-
pertinent Station were seen June 16.
AT this time 72s2-per- cent Of the wee
wills were out. On an average there
were two squares to the plant by
June %.
"Plat 1, which was treated before
the squares formed, made a profit of
1894 more per acre than Plat 2,
which was started only a week later
but after squares had formed, in
spite of the fact that Plat 2 was more
fertile. Southern Ruralist.
The boil weevil campaign is we'll
under way and large number of
farmers have provided themselves
with the necessary weapons for max
ing the fight. hopping for the early
weevil will be started very soon, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Boil Weevil had better
be careful where they light if they
don't want a taste of calcium arse
nate.
l have held 13 meetings in differ
ent sections of the county with an
average attendance of % farmers.
Professor NJ. D. Mobley, of Powder
Springs, who is cooperating with me
in the campaign has also held some
very successful meetings in the Pow
der Springs and Austell sections. The
schedule for this week calls for meet
ings at Mt. Bethel, New Hope, Black
wells, and Mr.. McEIreath's farm near
MacLand and a few other places in
the Powder Springs territory.

George Mckinney, of Austell, says
that there is a difference between a
tract of land with fence around it
and a real pasture. He has two or
three acres of low land seeded to a
pasture mixture consisting of white
and Japan clovers and carpet, Dallas
and Herd grasses. This small pasture
affords good grazing for his small

the year. Mr.. Mckinney states that
he is making a good profit from his
