Only few years ago Jersey COW was
curiosity in this Sta e, although there
were many fine cattle of other breeds in
different sections, especially in Middle
and Northern Georgia. Now the little,
soft-eyed beauties have secured a firm
toothOld, and have not only become fash
iOnable, but "all the rage" The Devons
and Durhams and Attorneys have taken
back seats, as it were, and the Jerseys
have come decidedly to the front.
The organization of the Jersey Breed
ers' Association at Atlanta last year gave
a fresh impetus to the Jersey craze, and
the inauguration of the semi-annual sales
may be considered as the formal begin
ming of the Jersey era in Georgia.
The second sale of the Jersey club
which took place in Atlanta Wednesday
last was remarkable in some respects. 1t
was more largely attended than the first,
and more interest seemed to be exhibited,
but there was a notable decline in prices.
This latter fact is not due to
the decline in popularity of the
Jerseys, doubtless, so much as
to the increased "visible supply" of ami
mails, for during the last four or five
years there has been steady importa-
ton of young animals from the Middle
and Western States, and the number of
homebred Jerseys that have been sold
throughout the State would, no doubt,
count up into the thousands.
The decline in prices will more than
likely stimulate the demand for Jersey
cattle. People OF even moderate means
can afford to own Jersey COWS at from 500
to $3.50 each, and pretty good COW can
be had for the latter sum. good COW
ought to be worth as much as a good
horse, and certainly an average of 1925
ought not to be considered a fancy price
for a good COW, such an one as will, with
fair treatment and management, feed and
almost clothe an ordinary family from
the sales of her milk and the butter made
from it. 1t cannot be doubted that those
extra cows that sell for from 5000 to $500
are worth the money.
1t is not advisable to abandon all other
breeds ofcattle. We need those that are
better adapted for the yoke, the sham
bles, and as mere milk producers, than the
Jerseys are, but as butter producers and
farm yard favortes the latter are with
out rival.

From the Youths Companion.
Marshall was once at market and heard a
well dressed stranger complaining that he
could get no one to carry home a turkey for
him. Marshall offered to carry it, and did so,
accompanying him to his house, when the
stranger proposed TO pay him. but he dec ned
and walked on. som hing about him seemed
to excite suspicion Of the stranger, and he
said TO pc son passing:
"Who is that O d fellow who brought home
my turkey? The reply was:
HE is the Chief Justice of the United
States, and he brought home your turkey To
teach you to attend To your own business
My friend DIR. Hay related 10 me ano her
amusing anecdote of Marshars sim implicitly
The doctors father W hen a boy was EN- uloyed
as a copylst in the clerks office, and was sent
Que morning With a bundle OF papers to Mar
shalps residence. Having reached the square
old mansion, which IS still standing not far
from the capitol he knocked at the door, and
stocking feet, in order not to disturb his in
valid wife The youth was very much
abashed at being thus suddenly confronted bv
the famous Chief Justice. who gravely in
vited MIN TO come into his study, ana wait
while he eX mined the papers
The boy followed in fear and trembling. and
the Judge l0oked over the papers. Then he
carefully folded them mp, turned round to the
shrinking boy, and said:
"Your name is jimmy Hay, is it not?"
"Yes, sir" fa'tered the boy.
"Well. Jimmy" continued Marshall. rising
slowly, with friendly smile, ''let us go into
the backyard and have a game of marbles. !"
| have no doubt he enjoyed the game of
marbles as much as the boy; but his favorite
pastlme was to play quOits at Buchauan's
spring, in the Western suburb of Richmond.
The place was a sort of pleasure ground
used for picnics and club meetings especially
OF the Quot Club. of which Marshall was q

The TechnoIogicaI school.

The three cities which made eXtraor-
binary efforts to secure the technological
school were Macon, Athens and Atlanta,
and it was expected that the successful
city would rejoice and the defeated ones
growl. That which was expected oc-
cured. Both Athens and Macon have had
some pretty hard things to say about At
lanta's methods of securing the school,
OF course Atlanta makes vigorous denials.
and insists that she succeeded by fair and
square means.
All things considered, it is probable that
Macon was about the best location of the
three, but she didn't get it, and there is,
therefore, no use in discussing further the
location question. The thing to aim at
now is to make the school a success. 1t
is the kind of school that is needed in
this State, and if it proves to be all that tbs
hoped it will, there will be other schools
of the same kind established in other parts
OF the South.
The question which ought to interest
the people of the State now is not what
Atlanta is going to gain by the school,
but what the State and it's young men are
going to gain. If 1t is supported with en-
thusiasm, started rightly, managed prop
erly and Offered with judgment, it Will
be the source or an immense amount OF
good. 1t will become an institution of
which the State Will be justly proud.
1t will not be a difficult matter, how
ever, to defeat in a great measure its pur-
pose. That can be done by Withholding
sufficient appropriations for its support,
and by putting tavorites instead OF COM
petent men in charge oft. Now that the
question of location is settled let every
thing that is done for it be done with no
other motive than TO promote its success.
If the President and professors are sc.
lected with the view of taking care of
somebody's friends or relations, or il the
contracts for building, machinery, tools,
etc, are made with the view of putting
money into somebody's pocket, the in
stitution will be failure. The people
will take no interest in it, and If they are
indifferent about it the Legislature will
not be liberal IN making appropriations.
