I should say that GOOD SIT-TERZENSHIP about covers it when you analyze it. But what CONSTITUTES good sitterlenship? Aye, there's the rub, as Bish Den-man said.

And when you boil it down, how many can measure up to the standard of ideal sitterzen-ship? The dummy or the selfish man can't. The representative of a selfish interest or the spineless man can't. The man without vision, guts, civic pride and balanced judgment can't. Tho man who can view neglet, decay, unsani important changes in the use of mules have been made. Production in Missouri, Kentucky, and Tennessee has declined until it has become necessary to ship mules Into Alabama from western states; and at a much bigger freight charge.

"With farm prices as they are," continued Dr. Cary, "it is necessary for farmers to hold their expenses down to the very minimum. One way to do this is to raise their mules and also to raise the feed for them as well as feed for the other livestock." Dr. Cary says that it is not difficult to get brood mares but that it is rather difficult to obtain satisfactory jacks. He believes, tempestuous days when dimes are Loud Speaker and the Candidate.

If you think that one man is better than another, vote for him, but don't do any dirty work as it will only reflect discredit on the one who does it.

E. Doughty There Is considerable disagreement among farmers concerning the best stage of maturity to harvest soy beans. There Is no doubt that soy beans, cut when the pods are just beginning ta swell or the seed in the podg are about one-third full size, make hay of decidedly better quality, at this stage than at any other Tt is also much easier to cure hay later stage Just before the pods begin to turn yellow. Soy beans cut when after the podg become plump but while the plants are still green are especially hard to cure. The pods dry very slowly and remain green for several days after the stems of the plants are well cured.

If the hay is store before the pods dry, It may mold badly, especially If the plants are well filled with pods. Therefore, where the beans cannot be har- vested by the time the pods are half filled, It Is better to wait un-' til the seed are almost mature. Hay made tor the more mature milk cows but is satisfactory for beans Is not very satisfactory for mules. For milk tows, especially it pays to sacrifice quantity for quality. around stumps where the mower cannot be driven.

Killing weeds will give the grass a better chance and thus Increase the car. The man who TENDS TO HI3 who can't get 15 Inches from the door of his place of business in the public's interest, is not EVEN NEEDED AS A SITTERZEN, much less a city father. Another question do you absolutely KNOW that you can DEPEND on the man you are votin' for, or will he keep you GUESSIN' on vital questions as to his position? Do you KNOW that HIS DUTY and the peoples' interest are ALWAYS COMIN before his personal Interests? "Do you KNOW that ha will promote or support a movement in the city's interest that MAY conflict with hit own. Is YOUR candidate somebody's "yes man" or 1b he too pig-headed and contrary to consider the views and opinions of others. Is the character of YOUR candidate above reproach, Does he see that many changes should have been made many years ago In th city?

Misses Mamie and Ruby Rawlins have returned to their home the writer knows anything about. "What of it." you say. Plenty! It is deplorable that Piedmont has no more actual official contacts with our state government than that.

Official contacts make for greater interest In state government, In large affairs. Moreover, potential contacts make for intellectual and cultural community spirit. In this respect we are unfortunate in our geographical location, and because Piedmont is not a court house town, and also because we have no institution of statewide connection. We must start having conven. tions, some big time events, and invite the "big boys" here.

They'll come, and then they'll fall In love with Piedmont and our and you'll have no trouble from thn on getting them to come back. nearly name the few officials who lave ever been in Piedmont during that time. That goes for all of them, during the more than thirty years. And it means officials while holding offlec. Not exofficlals, nor officials elected.

Does anyone remember of any United States Senator visiting Piedmont during that time except Former Senator J. Thomas Heflin? We do not. Has anybody ever seen tho governor of Alabama or of any other state in We have not. What other high officials have visited Piedmont wMle In office? Indeed they have been few and far between.
