The pew stadium has already been shown as one of the most useful municipal public buildings possible, for the most creditable fair in all south Geor gia was held in this structure and the grounds surrounding here last fall. i Now comes athletics.

Harris is right on the job in Washington looking out for the welfare of the “folks back home” and never losing an op portunity to promote the interest of Georgia institutions and protect the well being of his people. The activi ty of the Georgia Senior Senator in behalf of the people of his home state was again indicated Monday, when he succeeded in haivng the sub committee handling agricultural ap propriations for the senate approve an increase of $3,000 for the tobac co experimental work at the Georgia Coastal Plain Experiment Station at Tifton. Already $7,000 per year is being spent by the federal govern ment for this work and if the in crease is finally approved, it will mean $lO,OOO a year for tobacco work at the station. Senator Harris has always shown a great interest in the experiment sta tion at Tifton and has done much for the station. It was through his efforts the original appropriation for tobacco experiments at the sta tion was made and he has since thatl time had the appropriation in creased. As a result of appropria-‘ tiones secured by Senator Harris, the U. S. Department of Agriculture hasl had a man at the station conducting tobacco growing experiments for! fou ryears. The results of these ex-' periments have been of untold valuel to the tobacco gyowers of South] Georgia. A year ago by means of an increased appropriation secured by Senator Harris, a man was placed here to study tobacco diseases under the direction of the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture and in connec tion with the tobacco growing work.l This later work has not been in prog ress long enuogh for the results tol be evident, but that they will be valuable to the tobacco growers of Georgia in a foregone conclusion. Not content to rest with two good deeds already done, Senator Harris is now working for still another in crease in the appropriation for to bacco work at the station in order that the tobacco experiments may be of still greater value to the tobac co growers of South Georgia. With Senator Harris in the Sen ate, the people of Georgia need have no worry. They may rest assured that their interests are being care fully looked after at all times. And the beauty of it is that the longer Senator Harris remains in the sen ate just that much more valuable will his service be to =~ the people of Georgia. His influence in the senate and in Washington official-- dom alike increage with each year be remains in the , capitol. 'Georgians and particularly the farmers of Geor gia will do well to see to it that Wm. 1 J. Harris continues Georgia’s Senijor Senator.
