WOULD RAISE MILLION
DOLLARS IN GEORGIA
ADMIRERS OF LATE :PRESl-
DENT WILSON WOULD BUILD
A MEMORIAL COLLEGE.

Plans for the campaign to raise one
million dollars as this states share OF
the sum required to establish Wood
row Wilson college in Georgia have
been made public by Pleasant A.
Stoval, state chairman, who IS lead
ing the movement.
The responsibility for the undertake
ING is in the hands OF state campaign
committee composed of Georgians
representative OF the general public,
civic organizations, American Legion
and American Federation OF Labor.
Under the direction of this commit
fee A statewide organization IS beng
set up in each OF the twelve congress
sjonaI districts. In each OF these re-
gions regional chairman will super
wise the campaign in the counties IN
cluded in his district, in cooperation
with a district campaign committee
appointed by him.
A county organization IS to be SCI
ND in each county where there IS
civ Of two thousand or more popu-
lation. County chairmen and their
committees will conduct the general
canvass in their localities.
A state auxiliary committee IS to be
organized by the state committee to
procure gifts from Wilson's more
wealthy admirers in Georgia.
The plan of campaign announced by
Mr.. Stovall does not include any I'M
mediate effort to obtain gifts from
Wilson admirers outside the state: AS
soon as one million dollars has been
raised in Georgia a nationwide cam
paign is to be launched in which
friends and supporters all over the
United States will be invited to con-
tribute to the national memorial mi
Georgia. This nationwide campaign
will probably be conducted from New
York under the personal supervision
of members of President Wilson's cab
met and other intimate friends.
The plans for the present campaign
in Georgia have been worked out by
a group of prominent Georgians with
the close cooperation of Colonel +.
NJ. House, DR.. David Houston, secre-
tary of agriculture during Wilson's
administration DIR. Sidney f. Mezes
president OF the College OF the City OF

has been recruited.
The actual solicitation for funds will
be carried on throughout the state,
commencing about the middle OF May.

AS the churches of Bronwood are
about to 90 into their union revival
season, which l hope will prove to be
of much lasting good for the people of
Brentwood and community, ! think the
above a good subject for discussion
just now.
The first and chief need of all Chris
tians is fellowship with God. The di-
vine life comes from within, and IS
dependent upon Him.
May | ask, do we take time to seek
this divine life or power? Do we as
followers OF Christ spend as much time
in PRAYER as we should asking for the
guidance OF the Holy Spirit in our
daily activities?
These are very important questions,
think.
Nav I ask do we of Brentwood want
gracious outpouring Of the Holy
Spirit in our midst during this revival
season? If we do we can have just the
revival we want God is always on the
giving hand. and if we are willing to
pay the price we can have one OF the
most glorious revivals Brentwood has
ever witnessed.
Expect great things from God; at
tempt great things for God" This is
the great secret of all great Christian
lives
Without this daily fellowship with
God we can accomplish nothing for
His cause.
If all who profess to be Christ's fol-
lowers here in Brentwood will make
full surrender OF their lives to God to

be used OF Him as He would use us
great things will happen here in old
Brentwood Bronwood will be made
new town spiritually. But are we
willing to turn over our lives to God
to be directed of Him as He would
direct?
| fear we want to have little say
in this matter, and will not leave all
in the hands of God and trust Him as
we should.
May l ask that each church mem
Der OF every church in Brentwood
spend much time in secret prayer for
an outpouring of Gods spirit up
on the churches of Brentwood. Let's
put our all in this revival work and
trust God for the results When we
obey His commands He is ready TO
do His part; so if we do not get the
blessing in this revival it is not Gods
fault but it is because we have neg
lected to do our part
We can not go around talking about
our neighbors and expect God to bless
us. Instead, we should spend much
time in prayer for them and go TO
them and talk to them OF Christ and
His kingdom in, kind, loving way;
not harsh and severe.
Study Christ's life while He was on
earth and use it as your criterion. Let
His life be your guide
To do this we must spend some
time in Bible reading, and may | ask
that as you read you remember that it
is. God speaking to you through His
inspired word. r. /. CHILDS.

FUR FARMING IN u. S. IS
ASSUMING BIG PROPORTIONS
Employing Twelve Hundred Farmers
Becomes Important Industry.

II any persons doubt that fur farm
ing has become. an important factor
in the economic scheme OF affairs we
would direct their attention to certain
statistics published by the bureau OF
Biological Survey. A recent bulletin
estimates that there are approximate
~ 1900 fur farmers in the United
States and Alaska. Breeding stock,
equipment, etc. represents an invest
ment OF some S12,000,000 to $15,000,-
900.
There is no doubt but that our gov
eminent recognizes fur farming as an
important industry. Definite arrange
ments have been made within the Btu
reau OF Biological Survey to thorough
ly study and in every way possible as
sist those engaged in raising furs.
And yet, with all that has been done,
fur farming is but an infant in the
ranks OF industry.

Canned and Frozen.

More than fifty million pounds Of

Wisconsin Leads in
Testing of Cattle
Original Tests to Cattle for Tuber.
culosis at Pace Twice as Fast
As Any Other State.

Madison-The testing of cattle in
| Wisconsin for tuberculosis and the
eradication of the disease in the state
is going on at a pace nearly twice as
fast as in any other state of the
union during the same period, ac-
cording to a report by John D. Jones,
state commissioner Of agriculture.
In a preliminary report the de-
partment of agriculture shows that
under the area test plan ,440,1
cattle, located in 80 counties have
been tested for tuberculosis. The
30 counties comprise 48.6 per cent
of the geographical area of the state,
and the percentage of infection
ranged from three-tenths of one per
cent to two and half per cent, with
an average of about one and one
half per cent.
In other words, on the average
from a thousand cattle tested, Is
reactors were discovered and con-
demned. The total number of re-
actors were discovered and con-
demned The total number of re-
actors removed from 80 counties,
was 1872 and the average indemnity
paid on grade animals was $29 and
on pure breds 5000. Up to July /,
1928, the average cost per head of
testing was 33 cents. For the two
year period ending June 80, 1925,
the average cost per head was Is II
cents.
Original tests are now being APP
piled to all of the cattle in Forest
and Shawano counties. General re-
tests have been completed in Ash
land and Bayfield, counties, with a
percentage of infection in each case
less than five-tenths of one per-
cent, which entities the last named
counties to be declared officially as
modified accredited areas. Nine
counties containing about 100000
cattle have filed petitions and await
the application of a countrywide
test.
During the month of July there
were tested in the state of Wiseon-
sin, by state, federal and approved
veterinarians, ll0,379 cattle, num-
Der nearly twice as large as were
tested in any other state Of the I'M
ion during the same period.
Two full-time area forces are
now continuously engaged in this
work, and it is understood that by
December /, third area force will
be operating in the field.

LaFOllette Again
Sweeps Iron County
Coolidge and Dawes Republicans
Stay Away from Polls; LaFol-
lette Supporters on the Job.

That the Coolidge and Dawes Re
pubhcans in Iron county failed to
turn out and vote at Tuesdays
special election is Indicated by the
returns compiled yesterday at the
county clerks office. LaFollette
polled twelve more votes at Tues
days election than he polled at the
primary election On the other
hand Dithmar, representing the wing
in the Republican party opposed to
the LaFallette Progressives. polled
1913 votes less at Tuesdays election
than Wilcox polled at the primary
election.
On the face of the returns, all the
laFollette supporters in Iron county
that voted at the primary election,
together with II more, cast their
ballots at Tuesdays election. But
many of the Stalwart Republicans
stayed away from the polls. for but
81 votes were cast for Dithmar as
against 207 for Wilcox at the
primary election.
The total vote in the county at the
primary election was $40. At
Tuesdays election the total was 684.
The light vote in Iron county.
which normally has vote of more
than 1000, is believed due to the
lack of interest in the senatorial
contest and the inclement weather.
The cold, rainy weather which pre-
vailed on election day no doubt was
made use of by the delinquent voters
as an excuse for their failure to
appear at the polls.
LaFollette carried every precinct
in the county at Tuesdays election
except one. In that one precinct.
the second ward in the city of
Montreal he tied Dithmar, each
getting votes. At the primary
election Wilcox carried two pre-
cincts, the Fourth ward in Hurley
and the Fourth ward in Montreal,
and tied LaFollette IN the town of
Sherman.
A comparison Of the returns shows
that in the towns nearly the same
number of votes were cast at Tues
days election as were polled at the
primary election, the difference in
the total vote in the county being
due to the stay-at homes in the
cities of Montreal and Hurley.
Montreal had a total vote of 90 at
TIE primary election, whereas but 81
votes were cast at Tuesdays cleo
ton. A total Of 2S1 votes was
polled at the primary election in
Hurley, while the total at Tuesdays
election was 1876.
