| ty, more contented people, and all
of the other good things will come to
| us.
Much has been said pro ard con
about cotton, but we say without fear
or favor that Terrell county must re-
tain her place in Georgia as a cotton
producing county. Terrell county
should always produce from fifteen to
twenty-five thousand bales of cotton
| but this should be produced on less
acreage and the surplus acreage should
be planted in food crops, such as corn,
peanuts, velvet and soy beans, sugar
cane, sorghum, oats and other small
grain, potatoes, asparagus, strawber-
ries, many of these crops being mark
eted by the COW, hog and hen route
Terrell county needs more hogs, more
good milk cows and more pure bred
poultry but we doubt the wisdom of
going out into the market and buying
them till we have plenty of feed in the
county to feed them. Then let us be-
gin now to grow feed for a bigger
bog crop, more dairy cows and moro

II A County Farm Program.
: In order to do the most effective
work we will need program, and
such program must be made up BY
all interests. The county board Of
roads and revenues were asked to apl
point an agricultural board, to assist
as members of the Terrell county ag-
ricultural board, formulating and exc
cutting such program, and the fol-
lowing men were appointed after
fnuch thought and deliberation: R. L.
Saville, H. A. Petty, c. d. Cooke, F..
y. Stewart, Clyde Wall ]. P. Perry,
D. A. Smith, of Dawson; J. C.. Coker,

j. Carter, Parrot; Harvey Hill, Sas-
ser; t. w. Haddock, Shellman, r. F.
D.; ], H. Prtchard, PARROT; DR.. R.
E. Bowman, Brentwood The board of
roads and revenues were asked to be
ex-officio members of the board This
board has been officially notified by
Judge Hoyl and will hold its first
meeting in the county court room in
the court house Friday afternoon of
this week at 2:30 o'clock Each mem
Der has been requested to give care
full thought as to the agriculture needs
of the county, and bring those
thoughts into this meeting and thus
formulate county program. While
the above committee will constitute
the agricultural board of the county,
we urge every individual to come to
us. or see these men right away and
offer any suggestion that might be
beneficial to the work.
Meeting of Poultry Growers.
1t is apparent that there is accumu-
lating all over the county temporary
surplus of eggs; more than the local
market can consume at a reasonable
price; and it has been thought wise
to call meeting of all the poultry
growers in the county on Saturday at
ternoon OF this week, March l4th, in
the county court room in the court
house at o'clock sharp, for the pur-
pose of forming egg circles to market
this surplus of eggs. All those inter
ested in poultry are requested to at

should be played, and the Camilla lads
went down in defeat by the score OF

stars could not be named, as the whole

PEACE WITH WORLD AND ECONOMY AT
HOME, is PLEA OF PRESIDENT COOLIDGE
CONTINUED from Page I, Col. y

:
president turned to home problems
These he dealt with in the same man
ner, stressing always the need for less
taxes, more enforcement of existing
laws and non-interference by the gov
eminent with legitimate business.
The collection of more taxes than
are absolutely required to run an or
derby, efficient government, he said,
was simply species of legalized lar
ceny.'
THE time is arriving" he declared,
when we can have further tax reduc-
ton, when we must have tax reform.
Il favor the policy of economy, not
because / wish to save money, but be-
cause / wish to save people. The men
and women of this country who toll
are the ones who bear the cost of
government. Every dollar that we
carelessly waste means that their life
will be so much the more meager.
Every dollar that we prudently save
means that their life will be so much
more abundant. Unless we wish to
hamper the people in their right to
earn a living we must have tax re-
form"
The method of raising revenues
ought not to impede business; it ought
to encourage it. | am opposed to ex-
tremely high taxes, because they pro-
duce little or no revenue, because they
are bad for the country, and, finally,
because they are wrong.
I'VE cannot finance the country,
we cannot improve social conditions
through any system of injustice even
if we attempt to infict it on the rich.
Correct Course.
The wise and correct course to

nomic legislation is NOT to destroy
those who have already secured sue
cess, but to create conditions under
which everyone will have a better
chance to be successful.
The verdict OF the country has
been given on this question. We shall
do well to heed it"
Turning from taxation to law en-
forcement, Mr.. Coolidge appealed to
the nation for better observance OF
existing laws. While he did not men
ton specifically the prohibition laws it
was evident that he had these in mind.
The first rule for the guidance OF
a citizen is obedience to law" he said.

intelligence who violate the law at

gard the rule OF society e.. . are tread

The president terminated his brief
address with a plea for liberation
the fundamental precept OF liberty"
Here stands our country" he con-
cluded, AN example. of tranquility at
home, a patron of tranquility abroad.
Here stands its government, aware OF
its might, but obedient to its con-
