Remember in all things that, il
you do not begin, you will never
come to an end. The first weed
pulled up in the garden, the first
seed in the ground, the first penny
put in the savings bank, and the
first mile travelled on a journey are
all important things; they make a
beginning, and hold out a hope, a
promise, q pledge, an assurance that
you are in earnest in what you have
undertaken. How many poor,

TRUE WORDS.

The TACT is that agriculture in
Georgia is beginning to mean some
thing more than the raising Of cot
ton There must be leading crops,
adapted to the soil and climate. In
Georgia the great money crop is and
must continue to be cotton. but the
farmers OF this state have learned
from experience thatit is poor policy
to pay cotton for what they might
raise at home, and many of them are
abandoning that policy as rapidly
as possible. This fact accounts in a
large measure for their increased
prosperity, and it is one of the most
encouraging signs Of the times that
the farmers alliances are urging
members to 'Flive at home"
1t matters not if it were known
that cotton would command twenty
cents tor the next ten years, it would
be the safer and surer policy for
each and every farmer in the cotton
region to raise on his own farm an
abundance of corn, meat, wheat and
all farm supplies.
This the Southern farmers can do,
and at the same time grow cotton
enough to supply the world, when
supplemented with that grown in
other counties.
If this be done, and it can be done,
then, whether cotton be sold tor ten
cents or twenty cents, in a few years
our farmers will become masters of
the situation, and will. become money
lenders instead of oney-borrowers
as now.
High priced cotton is a delusion
and snare to the farmer. Don't be
caught by it. Don't be deceived by
it, Stick to the safe policy and
plant largely in corn ond food crops.
There is no other safe channel
open to the Southern farmer; there
is no other way to pay out and keep
out of debt, the curse of every in.
terest.-Monroe Advertiser.

FARM NOTES.

Young man, educate yourself and
learn how to redeem and run the
old farm. 1t is the shortest and
easiest road to competency.
The neglected farm is pretty sure
to starve out the owner. This is
natures method for taxing revenge.
She demands square deal.
What is there produced on the
farm that is of more consequence
than the boys and girls? When this
crop fails the bottom of agriculture
will drop out.
Experiments show that any por-
ton Of the seed from an ear of corn
may be used fer planting, and that
there is no advantage possessed by
the butt seed over the tip seed, nor
is the middle seed better than that
from the butts or tips.
Many people salt their stock very
lrregularly. Instead Of putting salt
where stock can get it at will, they
salt whenever they think of it and
the impulse takes them, one time
giving them "a good sailing and
another throwing them a little,"
which is principally licked up by
the stronger animals. Stock will do
much better when salt is given them
freely and in way that gives the
weaker one an equal chance with
the stronger. The better way is to
keep it where all can get at it when
they desire.

A WORD TO QUE You've mR.x.

A WORD TO OUR YOU'VE MRa.
In an interesting talk with Con-
stitution man the other day, Presi-
dent Kincard, Of TIE Griffin mills,
said:
What the south needs above ell
things is men. | have situation
at handsome salary for any young
man Of sense who viii 20 through
the chronological school and grad
uate, and then spend three years at
hard work in cotton mill. We
need such mon tor superintend-
ents."
Every word uttered by President
Kincaid weighs a ton. We need
young men Of education, who will
put their brains into their work.
1t was all very we'll under the old
condition Of things for the sons of
wealthy men to enter the learned
professions. In those days rich
man could afford to practice law or
medicine simply as sort Of by play,
but times have changed, and the tu-
ture OF the south must be worked
out by men who know how to de-
velop our material resources.
We can get along without swelling
the ranks of the politicians, lawyers
and doctors. What we need more
than anything else is skilled labor.
Once, it must be admitted, there
was a prejudice against labor. That
has died out. The leading citizens
OF every free commonwealth are the
producers-the men who turn
swamps and forests into smiling
farmr, the builder of towns, cities,
factories, and railways, the devel-
opers sof mines and other natural
resources. These are the men who
win fame and fortune, and lead the
people, and make themselves pow
err in the land, and in the councils
Of the nation.
1t is q thousand times better to go
through the chronological school,
and march at the head of our indus
trial procession, than to starve in q
shabby genteel way in profession
al Office. Our brainy princes of in
dustry are the first men of the coun-
try. They are stamping their i'm
press upon our literature, our laws
and our society. So far from rank
ing second to the learned profession,
they dominate them. They control
our magazines and newspapers, and
pay our lawyers, doctors and preach
ers. They go to congress and nego-
tiate our commercial treaties with
the nations Of the world. The stu
dent of the closet and the writer's of
books go to them for ideas. The
leaders Of the social world look to
them for all that makes modern
life enjoyable.
President Kincaid'g words are
worth their weight in gold. We
heartily commend them 70 every
young man who is starting out in
lie, and hesitating before he takes
the first step. There is more solid
comfort and prosperity in material
progress than any thing else. The
skilled and educated worker who
adds to the sum of our general
wealth will stand higher in every
way than the young man starts out
in broadcloth only to die pauper,
and leaves his sons to begin life in
their shirt sleeves.
