SCIENCE LABORATORY BEING
INSTALLED AT DAWSON HIGH
Given by PIT. A. 1t Meets a Long
Felt Need of the School.

The realization of dream long en-
tertained by science instructors in the
Dawson high school is about to come
true. Workmen are now engaged in
tearing out the gymnasium fixtures
preparatory to the installation OF an
up-to-date chemical laboratory.
The laboratory has been donated by
the Parent-Teacher Association, and
will add greatly to the already high
rating enjoyed by the institution. For
many years the students have been
handicapped by the lack OF sufficient
chemical apparatus for all Of the eX-
periments listed in the text book de
spite the fact that the present equpi-
ment was much better than that OF the
average school.
With the laboratory now being in
stalled the Dawson school can boast
of one of the best equipped science
rooms of any school.

CAR OF FEEDER HOGS
HAS BEEN BOUGHT
WILL ARRIVE IN DAWSON FOR
DISTRIBUTION IN NEXT FEW
DAYS. DOUBLE TREATED.

County Agent A. F. Gibson an
nounces that he has been successful in
buying something over carload OF
feeder hogs for the farmers of Terrell
county, and that they will arrive at
Dawson for distribution in a week or
ten days The hogs will weigh from
IS to 65 pounds, and will have been
double treated against cholera. They
were located at different points in Ten
nessee, and will be both barrows and
open gifts The price of these hogs
will be approximately IA cents per
pound delivered at the cooperative
stock pens in Dawson.
Those who are interested in feeding
out hogs should communicate with
Mr. Gibson at once, for feeder hogs
are scarce. He states that no one
farmer will be sold any great number
OF them, but efforts will be made to
distribute them to as many farmers
as possible.
Efforts will be made right away to
purchase another shipment of these
light hogs, and it has been suggested
that those who desire feeders should
get a portion of their need out of the
first shipment and get Others later
should Mr. Gibson be successful in
getting more
The United States Department of
Agriculture has given out statement
that hogs will probably reach 10 cents
per hundred during the months of
September and October, and feeder
hogs at IA cents per pound appear to
be cheap enough if this forecast later
develops into reality.
1t is very difficult to secure feeder
hogs at any price, for the Tennessee
corn crop is understood to be good,
and that state has heretofore furnished
a large per cent of the quality of hogs
that has been fed out by Georgia
farmers.
Mr.. Gibson states that in discussing
the matter with Mr. H. Mcdowell,
manager of the Moultrie packing
house, he said that their yards had re
ceived orders for more than 10000
feeder pigs, and he had no hope Of Sc
curing more than 1000. 1t therefore
appears that Terrell farmers are very
fortunate in getting this type of hog
at the above price.

VOTERS WILL DECIDE THE
FATE OF THE CITY COURT
Bill to Abolish 1t Was Passed With
Referendum by Legislature.

Whether or not the city court of
Dawson will be abolished will be put
up to the voters of the county at an
election to be called in 90 days.
When Representative Weaver's bill
to abolish the court on January lst
next passed the house and reached the
senate opposition appeared on the part
OF lawyers and others, and Senator
Moye amended it so as to provide for
vote of the people upon petition OF
cne-ffth Of the qualified voters of the
county. Passing the senate with that
amendment it was necessary, for a
conference by committees represent
ing the two houses. The result was
that a compromise was reached where
by the clause requiring a petition for
an election was stricken, and it was
made the duty of the ordinary to call
an election in sixty days.
Judge Hoyl says he has not seen
copy of the act, and does not know
when he will fix date for the election

INTEREST GROWING IN

DAWSON REPRESENTED AT A

Interest in the Florida Short Route

Gently outlined at a meeting OF the
Dawson Kiwanis club for improving
and advertising this popular highway
Those going from Dawson were J. A.
Shields, r. r. Marlin, r. L. Saville
and Duke Marshall.
President Davis of the Boosters
club presided, and talks were made
by Messrs. Dixon, French, Phillips
Wall, Carter and others. Much en-
thusiasm prevailed.
For the past two years the develop
ment OF the highway, especially be
tween Albany and Columbus, has been
neglected. 1t is extensively used by
tourists from the northwest to the
southeast, and it is important that ii
be improved.
Richland is very much interested IN
the grading and eventual paving OF
the highway, and at the meeting Fri
dav night plans were made for bring
ing all the towns along the highway
to work together in having it put IN
first class condition.
A committee from Muscogee, Chat
tahoochee, Stewart, Webster Ter
rell and Dougherty counties to turth-
er the interest of the highway was
named. 1t is proposed to call meet
ing at an early day of representatives
from these counties.

SHOULD USE PROBATION IN
GATHERING PEANUT CROP
A Difference of Five to Fifteen Dol
lars a Ton, Says Gibson.

Terrell county farmers should eXer-
else precaution in harvesting their
peanuts this season, according to A.
T. Gibson, county agent OF Terrell
at must be remembered that peanuts
sell on grades, and the day OF all kinds
of peanuts selling for the same price
is thing of the past.
The difference in the price OF Y. ,.
number one peanuts and those OF the
poorer grades is from five to fifteen
dollars a ton; surely figure that
should encourage farmers to properly
harvest this crop.
Peanuts should never be allowed to
cure on the ground but should be
ploughed up and then taken up by
hand, the dirt shaked off and carried
and placed in stacks, which should be
OF sufficient distance from the ground
TO not allow them to become damaged
from excessive autumn rains, says Mr.
Gibson.
There is never any trouble in dis
posing OF a high grade product Of
any kind, and if peanuts are gathered
stacked and properly picked no diff
Guilty will be experienced in market
ing them.
The so-called sun-cured peanut is
not wanted by any of the shelters, be
cause the thin shell on the nuts be
come so brittle from the rays OF the
not sun it comes off of many Of them
when being shelled, thereby making
the nuts more susceptible to becom
