AMERICUS Will
START HOLIDAY
SHOPPING SOON
WISE ONES TILL NOT DELAY TOO
LONG
While Christmas is yet several
weeks in the future, conservative
Americus people, and there are many
of them, will, as usual, complete their
purchases before tbe holiday rush be
gins. Even now’, not a few are quietly
tuying articles they know will -be re
quired then. There is no argument
that can be advanced against it, wnilc
there is every reason for doing it, a
fact borne out here in Americus by
experience of several holiday sea
sons. From the points of view of the
purchaser, clerk and merchant it is
better than jumping in with a shopping
list on the day before Christmas,
when stores are jammed with shop
pers and weary salespeople are fretted.
Everybody shops for Christmas.
There are presents to buy for the chil
dren, for father and mother and sis
ters and cousins and aunts. If ev
erybody waited to buy these things un
til the eleventh hour the children
'would not be satisfied, ifather and
mother would feel neglected and all
the other relatives would wonder why
such gifts as they received were sent
them.
And all of this for the reason that it
is impossible to make mature selec
tions, take the time to look over the
stocks carefully, or to find as great a
variety of things in the stores just be
fore Christmas as several weeks be
fore that great day.
It pays in every way to ship early.
And it pays to shop at home. The
money that is sent to some other city j
is gone from Americus. Part of it
pays freight or express charges, or
postage and so, other things being
equal, it is more expensive to buy
av ay from . one.
Merchants elsewhere pay no taxes 1
to build our paved streets, pay for
street lighting and fire protection and
street cleaning and police protection.
They contribute nothing whatever to
this city’s support. Americus mer
ci ants deserve all of our people’s
trade because they help support Amer
icus and offer stocks of goods that fur
nish anything anybody in Americus
wants.
WILL PROVIDE FUND
TO ERftOiCATE PEST
USUAL APPROPRIATION OF $15,000
WILL BE INCREASED.
ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 8. —There is
every apparent reason to believe the
legislature will provide an ample ap
propriation for fighting the Mexican
boll weevil, now infesting some of the
cotton-growing counties of the state.
Heretofore the legislature has given
this work an annual appropriation of |
$15,000, but that was before the pest
got into the state. But there has
never been a voice of protest raised
from any source against an appropria
tion for this purpose.
Spreading Rapidly.
Members of the legislature realize
now that the weevil is here and rapid
ly spreading, that it is important to
do more work and harder work than
ever before. The campaign of edu
cation will have to become an in
tensive one; more and stronger or
ganizations of the farmers must be
perfected, and they must be prepared
for the best co-operative effort.
More than that, it will be necessary
to breed on a somewhat extensive
scale those varieties of cotton which
mature early and which are also
known to resist the wilt or black
root disease. An ample supply of this
seed next year will become a more
important factor than ever. Some 1
farmers have it. The state depart
ment of entomology also has a limit
ed amount which it proposes to dis
tribute free of charge. The amount'
of this seed available, however, will

Provide For Seed.
Next year the department will have
to busy itself in seeing that this seed
is grown in sufficient amount to sup
ply every farmer who desires to grow
cotton in the infested territory. This
is rather an expensive process.
Altogether, there need be no sur
prise over the request made for an
appropriation of SIOO,OOO to conduct
htis campaign. It is not so much of
a question as to whether the state
can afford it, as what it must do,
if the cotton growing interests of
Georgia are to be protected. The re
quest is strongly backed up by mer
chants, bankers, formers and others
