The Patriot 95773 .
The King Phi of the Duroe Breed
Do not take our word for it, just ask any
one of the men from Union County who
made the Roosters trio to Peacock and
Hodge's sale at Cochran, Georgia, and look
over the 1919 International Grand Champion.
Ask them if the Patriot is not a better
Boar than any they saw on the trip.
Superior Defender and Fred's Crimper
and Junior Faney Orion
Are in just as good class as any of them. We
say it without fear of contradiction that Sardis
Farm has the best equipment, the best
hogs and as good management as you can
find, and as for Herd Boars no farm can
boast of any better.
ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7th 1920
We will sell a bunch of as good Sows and
Gilts and Boars as will be offered this fall
and we are especially appealing to the farmers
in this offering.
IF YOU HAD
Gone with us to Cochran and gone into the

of Arsenate of Lead had been used in spraying
the plants and $225.00 spent for the
spray machine and the work done at night,
and seen cotton waist high with from three
to ten bolls to the stalk and thousands of boll
weevils, and hear the owner tell us that the
poison seemed to fatten the weevils instead
of kill them, you would not wonder why
Peacock and Hodge had a $581.00 average
on forty-two head sold. A local farmer
bought five of the best sows in his sale, paying
$1,350.00 for one.
All Competent Authorities Say
The boll weevil will come into Union County
and destroy the cotton crop. It seems that
"a word to the wise should be sufficient."

ACCEPUNCE SftECH
OF GOVERNOR COOUOGE
North Hampton, Mass., July 27.?
Rescue from the reaction of war was
declared as the transcended need of
the nation in the address which Governor
Coolidge delivered here today
in accpting formally the Republican
nomination for vice president. "The
chief task that lies before us," he
said, "is to repossess the people of
their government and their property."
Governor Coolidge found another
source of gravest public concern to
be "the reactionary tendency to substitute
private will for the public
will."
"The observance of the law," be
said, "is the greatest solvant of the
public ills."
The scene of the notification was
Allen Field, the recreation ground of
Smith College, a natural amphithe- ]
tre.
Governor Coolidge heart! from Gov- '
emor Edwin P. Morrow, of Kentucky,
the formal announcement of
his nomination "by the spontaneous ^
wish of the party.
"The proposed league of nations 1
without reservation as submitted by
the president of the feenate met with
deserved opposition from Republican
senators," said Governor Coolidge,
"our party , by the record of its mem- '
bers in the senate and by the Solemn
declaration nf it?t nlntform hv npr.
formance and by promise approves the
principle of agreement among nations
to preserve peace and pledges
itself to the making of such an agreement,
preserving American independence
and rights, as will meet every
duty America owes to humanity. This j
language is purposely broad, not exclusive
but inclusive. The Republican
party is not narrow enough to
limit itself to one idea, but wise and
broad enough to provide for the
adoption of the best plan that can be
devised at the time of action.
"Your presence thrills me, said !
Governor Coolidge in opening his address,
"of a leader and a cause. A
leader in Warren G. Harding, the
united choice of a united party, a
statement of ability, seasoned by experience,
a fitting representative of
the common aspirations of his fellow
citizens, wise enough to seek counsel,
great enough to recognize merit
and in all things a stalwart American;
the cause of our Common country,
as declared in the platform of
the Republican party, the defense of
our institutions from every assault, J
the restoration of constitutional government,
the maintainance of law and
order, the relief of economic distress,
the encouragement of industry and
agriculture, the upholding of humanterian
laws, the defense of the riehts
of our citizens everywhere, the rehabitation
of this nation in the estimation
of all principles under an
agreement meeting our every duty to
preserve the peace of the world, always
with unyielding Americanism?
under such a leader, such a cause, I
serve.
"No one in public life can be oblivious
to the organized efforts to undermine
the faith of our people in
their government foment desired, aggravate
industrial strife, stifled production
and ultimately stir up revolution?the
first duty of the government
is tc repress them. American
institutions can stand discussion and ]
criticism only if those who know bear
for them the testimony of truth.
"The greatest need of the nation at
the present time is to be rescued from
all the reaction of the war. The chief (
task that lies before us is to repos- ,
sess the people of their government ;
and their property. We want to re- ,
turn to a thoroughly peace basis because
that is the fundomental American
basis?if the great conflict has
disturbed our political conditions it
has caused an upheaval in our economic
relations. The mounting prices
of all sorts of commodities have put 1
a well nigh unbearable burden on
every home.
"The most obvious place to begin
retrenchment is by eliminating the
extravagance of the government itself,
that great breeder of public
and private extravagance, the excess
profits tax, should be revised and recourse
had to customs taxe? on im
poris, one of the most wholesome of
all means of raising revenue, for it
is voluntary in effect and taxes consumption
rather than production.
"A revision of taxation must be accompanied
with a reduction of that
private extravagance which the returns
from luxury taxes reveal as
surpassing all comprehension.
"There has been profiteering. It
should be punished because it is
wrong. But it is idle to look to such
action for relief. This class profit by
scarcity, but they do not cause it.
"As every one knows, the difficulty
is caused by a scarcity of material,
an abundance of money and insufficient
production. The government
A: ) '
must reduce the amount of money as
fast a? it can without curtailing necessary
credits. Production must be
increased.
"There must be a different public
attitude toward industry, a larger ^
comprehension for the interdepend- *
ence of capital, management and la- f
bor and the better facilities for the *
prompt and reasonable adjustment
of industrial disputes.
"The farmers need an enlarged ^
powre of organization whereby the ^
original producer may profit to a r
larger degree by the high prices paid j
for his produce by the ultimate consumer,
and at the same time decrease
the cost of food.
"But all these difficulties descend I
for final solution on the character and (
moral force of the nation. Unless a
these forces abound and manifest c
themselves in work done, there is no
real remedy. "Whenever
in the future this nation
undertakes to assess its strength
and resources, the largest item will *
be the roll of those who served in
every patriotic capacity in the world *
vtrar. Care of dependents, relief 0
from distress, restoration from infirmity,
provision for education,
honorable preferment in the public ^
Bcrvice, a helping hand everywhre,
arc the crisis, not as a favor but ^
right. a
"There is especially due to the col- Q
ored race a more general recognition
sf their rights, tempted with disloyalty
they remained loyal serving in
the military forces with distinction, ^
obedient to the draft to the extent of j
hundreds of thousands, investing $1 a
of every $5 they possessed in Liberty 0
bonds; surely they hold the double
title of citizenship, by birth and by
conquest, to be relieved from all imposition
to be defended from lynching h
and to be freely granted equal oppor- ^
tunities. ^
"Equal suffrage for which I have ?
aiways ?.oiea, is coming. me party
stands pledged to use its endeavors
to hasten ratification. d
"The destiny, the greatness of C
America lies around the heartstone. tl
tf thrift and industry are taught
there ,and the example of self-sacrifice
oft appears, if honor abide there
and high ideals, if there, the building d
fortune be subordinated to the build- S
ing of character, America will live in n
security, rejoicing in an abundant *
prosperitly and good government at
liome, and in peaace, respect and conidence
abroad. If these virtues be
absent there is no power that can
supply these blessings, look well then d
;o hearthstone; therein all hope of C
America lies." p
