Manure for the garden should be

Corners and patches that would
otherwise remain nnoccupied should be
planted with fruit trees.
The most productive orchards,
other things being equal, are those on
land elevated above the general level.
With all classes of stock the profit
able line of production is to maintain
good health with early maturity.
Good, substantial roads in any kind
of weather would almost double the
value of the lands through which these
public highways would extend.
1t seems strange that so many
farmers deny themselves of small fruit
A small outlay of time, money and labor
would supply the family with the lux

full and cheap food.

THE FARM VILLAGE.
A Georgia Experiment that WEI be
Watched With Interest.


The experiment of farm villages,
about to be tried in Georgia, will be
watched with the greatest interest by
all who are interested in the develop
ment of the south, for, if it succeeds, it
will remove one of the greatest obsta-
cles to securing for the southern states
the class of immigrants they most de-
sire.
The south was settled for the most
part by people who wanted ''elbow
room" In the south before the war,
where everybody, white and black,
was too comfortable and too nearly
exempt from the curse of profuse per-
spiration which the rest of the civilized
world paid as the price of a living; in
that old, comfortable, easy-going
and hospitable south, no one
lived in towns who could afford
to live out of them. The planter lived
in the middle of his ''place," where his
hogs and chickens could not trouble his
neighbors. 1t was country of magnif-
icent distances. No one walked. Even
the beggars, or those who were nearest
to being beggars where beggary did
not exist at all, went on horseback.
There was elbow room in abundance
and no one crowded anyone else.
This life suited the people SO well
that they gave it up with extreme
reluctance, but no sooner had the war
ended than the movement to the towns
began. 1t has kept up ever since, until
the farms have lost a very large part OF
the element that is best qualified tC
make the south growing success as an
agricultural region.
This was a movement into the towns
The village and village life are un
known in the south, as for the most
part they are in the entire country
We seldom have villages of any kind
and certainly not such villages as it i:
now attempted to develop in Georgia
The people of the farm village would
live together in easy reach of each 9th
err, with their school, post office
churches and shops. They would be
content with small village-a place
to live in, to use as base from which
| they could work their farms, and they
would not go to selling corner lots by
| the front foot as soon as they had the
village street laid off. There is enough
of that sort of village life in the south
and elsewhere already. 1t presents the
greatest difficulty in the way of the
farm village, for town booming is one
of the most deep-seated of American
vices, and of course farm village with
town boom in progress would be {
ridiculous and absurd failure
If the south could be filled with farm
villages, hamlets composed of the fam
lilies of farmers whose farms join, full
protection would be assured for wome1
and children, and all would have the
benefits of society and many advan
tages which can never be had in isola
| ton.

1t is to be hoped that the Georgia en-.
pertinent will be carried out in a CON-
nonsense way, and that too much will
not be attempted. The model Villages
and the socialistic village are predes-
tined failures, but the common-sensa
village can be made a great success in
the south by merely getting it into ex-
istence and allowing it to demonstrate
its advantages.-St. Louis Republic.

FARMER AND PLANTER
THE LABOR QUESTION.
Immigration and Emigration to and From


Immigration and Emigration to and From
the South.
1t is curious to note that while Geor-
gia calls loudly for immigrants, a cry
comes from a portion of the state that
the laborers are emigrating in such
large numbers as to threaten labor
famine This question Immediately
presents itself: If Texas and Arkansas
can make negro labor profitable. why
can not Georgia do the same?
Thousands of Georgia and Alabama
farmers hire hands at six, seven and
eight dollars per month, then grumble
about inefficient labor. Of course 1T is
inefficient; what else could be looked
for under existing circumstances? Does
the planter expect a seven-dollar man,
living in a squalid hut, and holding
soul and body together by a stinted "a
ton of corn meal and fat meat, to equal
in intelligence, efficiency and trust
worthiness the well-paid, well-housed,
well-fed farm hand of the north? Do
Georgia farmers expect European immi-
grants of the better class to settle
among them and toll fourteen hours for
thirty-one cents, when the great west
offers them a dollar for the same time?
Compare the negro with that class OF
immigrants who may be low enough to
labor for the pittance that the Georgia
farmer is able and willing to pay,
where will the immigrant prove better
| than the black man? Intelligence?
| The eight-dollar German will prove as
| thickheaded as the eight-dollar negro
| and will not understand his work mol
| his employer half as well, being used
to neither. More trustworthy? Man,
| saysa canny Scot. lis unco' weak, an6
| little to be trusted" Try them; hire g
squad; turn them in your field, ther
go off If they don't shirk, II
! give the experimental a years work
| The New York farmer works beside
his twenty-six dollar-man from day
light until dark-has to do it to get hi:
money back. The Texas planter mean!
to drive the hands he entices from you
| plantations hard enough to get bacl
| his dollar day. If Alabamians ant
Georgians can't work eight dollars ant
interest out of a negro, they'll not ge
that or more than that out of a Euro
pean; the latter are not SO easily driv
en- as the negro.
More thrifty? Quite likely, but tina
will prevent their employers speculat
ing on them; and it is well known tina
many planters make much more none,
Simplifying" hands than by legitimat
farming.
The negroes menace? Not much
Individuals may be dangerous, but tn

throw bombs? Does he block the wheel

Pretty Gowns for Growing Girls.

Among the problems which confront
mothers at every semi-annual dress
making season is how to arrange the
toilets of their half-grown daughters
so that they shall still seem little girls,
as they ought, instead of rather awk-
ward, undeveloped women. Fortunately
the big sleeves, the capes, ruffies and
bretelles of this years styles, which
are unbecoming to SO many women,
seem just the thing for slim school
girls. A pretty new gown for our thin
little maiden is of pearl-gray serge.
trimmed with many rows of narrow
white braid. The bodice has a full
frill, which is edged with braid. It is
not bad idea to warn all but the best
dressmal1ers TO use plenty of material
in fashioning these popular corsaga
frills. Economy is never more mis-
placed than in arranging skinny ber-
thas. The sleeves of this little cos
tune are exceedingly full. The hat is
black, Illuminated with red. Another
good model is a practical looking coat
of fine drab sedan cloth. 1t is double
breasted, with the usual ample sleeves,
and has large pearl buttons,-N. Y
