s Those who buy home raised fruit,
peaches, and watermelons during
the summer season will be able {p
live at smaller expense and the diet

The people of Crisp and adjoin

i 8 ha:d year’s labor in the form of
good crop returng if the favorable
~ weather continues. Crop conditions
are still good and the farmers are
doing lots of effective work.
Theze are the days when the cal
cium arsenate in the cotton fields
will count most. The time has arrived
when poisoning should be done lorg
"and late, in dead real earnest by
those who wish to ssve their cotton.

It will be well to keep thinking
over the light and power plans in
Cordele. This is a utility the cily
ought to be able to control-—and it
cannot as long as it is in the hands
of outside interests. Cordele will
grow if it provides for its own op
eration of the light and power plant.
It can be done in connection with
the water system at a lower cost
than anybody else can do it.
There are Catholics and catholies,
Plainly the up-east type, the Schmidt
—lliquor type, that runs politics and
everything clse from Massachusetts
to 'Maryland on the east coast is not
our kind. There are good Catholics.
For example Senator Walsh of Mon
tana is a Catholic of great useful
ness in this country, but he is a man
of character first, then whatever
else he can be in politics and states
manship, The eastern Catholic s
first a Catholic, then a liquor advo
cate—and then whatever else of an
ualterior, baseless nature he can be
to promulgate his doctrines. Some
day the forces represented in protest
ant America are going to clash with
eastern Catholicism. There must be
a finish fight. It may come in some
other form than that represented in
physical force, but it is coming. As
for us, we have heretofore wanted
no part in afiy program put forward
by the klan in the south and west,
but we want it clearly understood
also that we have no sympathy—
nothing in common with an ecastern
Catholic. We do not believd we will
ever find it possible to sympathize
with or tolerate their program, be
cause they are last, last, all the time,
intolerant.
" CATHOLIC NEW YORK
We have rever been in personal
touch with eonditions in Japan or
China or India, but we cannot under
stand why protestant christian ac
tivity has developed in this far
countries while the whole east coast
of America has hecome a solid Catho
;lic monarchy, wuntouched and un
yiclding, Protestant America has a
: great work on its own shores—the
duty of christianizing Catholic New
York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Maryland and interior Pennsylvania,
HMlinois and other up-east states.
There is not a newspaper in New
York that conld exist without Cath
olic support, and all of them play
80 completely into the hands of the
Catholics that Catholicism is in un
disputed pozsession.
There is a new paper in New York.
It finds itself in a contést with all
the older papers for Catholic sup
poit. IL is The Bulletin. An issue it
recently devoted to the Georgia
delegation in the national democrat
ie convention is worthy of a place in
the glass case of any Georgia mu
gseum, Some copies were bhroaght
home to be used for that purpose.
The Georgizin who could not look in
on that convention will have ]iu.le“
opportunity vo know what Catholic
fireworks went off durving the fight
on the klan, on William G. McAdoo
as the reputed representative of the
klan. And no Georgian here will
eéver understand the calumny, the
condemnation-—the wholesale damna
tion that was heaped upon repre
sentative Georgians in the MeAdoo
delegation at the convention, by
east side liquorite Catholic thugs as
gpectators in that convention,
~ Our eight years of klan condem
‘nation availed us noting. We had
“been dubbed klansmen by the U\nder
wood newspapers in Georgia and
klansmen we remained throughout,
the New York World leading in the
claims that we were McAdoo’s pet
klansmen. We will have more to'
write about this feature of the con
vention, much of it, partisan to be
sure, but in that partisan form
which belongs to all individuals, *lf
we did not Have our own ideals and
reasons for them, we would not be
worthy of tke time and the space to
present them.
We have klansmen friends: who
are good men. We have Catholic
friends who are good men.We want
to retain their friendships. But we
want people here and as far as we
can reach to know something of
Catholic New York-——that Catholic
New York and the Catholic - east
which runs itself under the edict of
Rome. We want to lay corrupt polit
ical conditions to the encourage
ment, the emboldened Catholic hand
wields in government to the coward
ly, groveling newspapers of the
east-—a journalism without charact
¢r, without creditable aim, without
an excuse for existence.
It is a strange thing—a strange
thing, indeed—that millions can be
poured into large publications in
that conglomerate melting pot of
humanity, New York, and their daily
grind will come back in millions in
dividends in one year.
In New York it is Catholicism at
any cost. Next, it is liquor if it can
be had—and Catholic New York has
it if Catholic New York wants it.
That motley horde of humanity as
we saw it, resolved itself into one
ceaseless, unchanging chorus as the
democratic conwvention fought day
and night for a way out. We shall
never forget it:
“We want Schmidt—We want
Schmidt! The shiboleth of old was
there. They could not say Smith.
And by their language we knew
them. Out of a erowd of a thousand
of them it was possible for a man
of southern birth to locate a man
of his own rearing.
A STRONG MAN OFFERED
John W. Davis will please all up
standing, pregressive demoerats. He
is a strong man, a capable man, and |
promises to become a leader who will
1 win the voter wherever he goes. 1
. The far west has never known this
candidate. It was wholly dopvndent!
upon William G. McAdoo and hasl
long held him up as the democrats
“hope. The shift will undo much of
the strength in the west which had
leaned upon McAdoo, for do what he
will, Davis cannot in the short time
pin himself to the west so that he
will be a great power in that sec
| tion when the ballot falls in Novem
ber. . 3
In the South the farmer has never
been taugh/t that he as much to ex
peet from such a man as John W.
Davis, He has not had real oppor
tunity to prove himself the friend
the farmer would need in the White
House under present conditions,
but we believe he will carry all the
gsouth and much of the west, for he
has no outstanding opposition, has
made no wounds in battles of other
times like those MecAdoo won in
many conflicts,
Davis will have much to do to
carry the farming northwest. The
wrecks of the agricultural sections
that have ecme out of the Fordney-
McCumber tariff operations in the
past four years are most evident in
the farming west. In the south the
burden has been felt, put the south
is democratic first because it is a
white man‘s country, not because it
has been abused by those who drew
millions from the consuming pub
lic throagh tariff levies, :
The east seems happy at the se
lection of Davis, He is going to make
the republicans hurry in that see
tion and democrats have much in
him to cause them to hope for vic
tory in the fall.
BEING EDUCATED-— IR “EXPOSED
TO AN EDUCATION?”
The Progressive Farmer:
The most important need of most
rural schools is further consolida
tion. Certainly we can never hope to
get effective teaching in schools
where one teacher handles (or tries
to handle) everybody from the first
to the seventh grades. Such a teach
er -is just as badly overcropped as
one man would be if he tried to cul
tivate eighty acres of cotton without
any other person, young or old to
help him. He might give a few acres
“a lick and a promise” but he could
not keep down the grass nor save
the crop from general failure. Neith
er can a teache rsave a crop of boys
and girls from failure when each
class only gets “a lick and a prom
fse”
In the old days whe na man's
gspeed was limited to that of a
horse's legs, school consolidation
could not wisely go far., And now
when one teacher can give all her
time an dthoughts to helping chil
l;lren in one grade ‘(instead of divid
ing her time and attention among
geven grades) children are really
making progress and getting some
where. They are really getting edu
cated instead of being merely “ex
posed to an oducation” —which is
about the best that could be claimed
for the old-fashioned one-teacher
school. The children were “exposed
to an education’—but in 'most cases
llt didn’t take!”
MAKE HARNESS AN DSHOES
LAST TWICE AS LONG
The Progressive Farmer: A
Leather and especialyl harness will
last twice as long as it does under
average conditions if «well taken care
of. If harness is of proper weight
and grade fo rthe work expected of
\it, then it should last fifteen to
twenty-five years and has been
known to last forty years. If, how--
ever it is allowed to become sonked
with sweat and covered with grit, it
will become hard and crack. This ad
‘mits more water and grit and short
?ens it ¢ays of use.
When it becomes dirty, harness or
other leather equipment should be
washed in tepid water, and when
nearly dry but yet moist, oil it well
with neat's foot oil or castor oil with
wool grease. If treated in this way,
the harness or other leather goods
will reduce their cost by about one
half. The same thing is true of shoes
These should be thoroughly cleaned
and when nearly dry, oil until they |
become soft and plastic. Especially
should the children’s shoes be kept ‘
well oiled am_t\tre:ned with some ma
terial that will make them water re
sistant. This will make the shoes
last longer and keep the children’s
feet dry.
