The O'Neall school district in N< y township will hold an election i a few days 011 the question of estal: lishing a high school.

The point is lhat the farmer? in (Jeorgia, and South Carolina a^ well, should devote more of their time and energy lo live slock raising. Mr Nees says: "There is no industry ol such importance 1 liaI has been so neglected in the South as lhat of raising beef cattle ami other live stock.'1 "When we neglect this industry we arc letting go to waste Hint which will make the State rich.
