2,01S. The School of Technology, the
Georgia Normal and Industrial. the
State Normal at Athens. the North
Georgia Agricultural, the Academy for
the Blind, the School for the Deaf and
the University for Colored People, all,
supported partly or wholly by the
state. are in fine condition and are do
ing good work.
The average number of patients in
the State Sanitarium for the last year
was 1854, and the percentage of recov-t
cries of those received during the year
was 80 AZ. The total cost for mainten-
ance of each patient during the year
was Sl12.6S per annum, or not quite
81 cents per day.. A very small
amount considering the manner in
which they are cared for.
Two new buildings have been
erected during the last two, years. at a
cost of hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, which will accommodate near
ly fifteen hundred patients These
buildings were badly needed because
the institution has been overcrowded
for several years past. and there were
confined in the jails in some of the
counties quite a number of lunatics
for whom no room could be found in
the Sanitarium.
For the. present year the appropria-
ton for the support of this institution
was S29O,O0O. For the next year this
amount will. for two reasons, be insult
ficient-the increased number of pa
tients to be provided for and the gen.
eral increase in the cost of everything
necessary in the support of the insti-
tuition: While rigid economy should be
and is practiced by the present excel
lent management of the institution. we
should not be parsimonious in provid-
ing for the wants of this, our noblest
charity.
Soldiers Home and Pensions,
The Soldiers Home, which was de-
stroyed by fire a little over a year ago.
has been rebuilt with the money
for which it was insured, sup
plemented by voluntary contribu-
tons, in a more convenient and en-
during form than before it was burn
ed, and will accommodate $50 in
mates. rs
1t is again occupied by the veterans
for whom it was built, and is filling
want that could not have been other
wise filled. There are now sheltered
and provided, for under its roof sixtv-.
four decrepit old veterans of the war
between the states, all of whom xyould
have been forced by want and decrep-
itude into the county poorhouses but
for this noble charity. During the last
year twenty-one of the old heroes who
had sought shelter within its walls
have died. All are old and infirm, and
in a few more years all will, have
crossed over the river to rest with the
immortal Jackson "under the shade of
the trees"
The trustees of the institution, who
work without compensation, have been
indefatigable in their labors incident to
the rebuilding and refurnishing of the
home and in providing for the wants Of
those under their charge, and to them.
especially to their President, Judge w.
L.. Calhoun, the State owes a debt of
gratitude for their unselfish devotion
IN their patriotic and philanthropic
work.
The pension rolls still continue to
grow. and unless there is some modi-
fication of the pension laws. it will be
but year or two till to meet their de-
mands a million of dollars will be re-
quired. This year the appropriation for

Constitutional Convention.
1t has been a quarter of a century
since the present constitution of Geor-
gia was adopted. Under the provisions
of the reconstruction acts of the feder-
al congress a convention to frame a
new constitution was held and a con-
stitution was adopted which, while
excellent in many of it's features, was
not the work of the people of the state,
and was not adapted to the conditions
that prevailed in Georgia at that time,
nor to the needs of a people four-ffths
of whose material wealth had just
been destroyed by the results of the
War of Secession. Under it's provis-
ions an era of speculation and reck-
less enterprise and extravaganza was
inaugurated. The credit of the state
was loaned to railroad projects in
which there was no merit. and conse-
quently great losses resulted to the
state and great damage to her credit.
A mammoth homestead exemption
from levy and sale for debt was pro-
vided for, ostensbly in the interest of
the masses of the people impoverished
by the results of the war It's effect
was, however to totally destroy the
credit of nine-tenths of them The
ballot was put into the hands of every
male person twenty-one years old and
upward without regard to his virtue
or his intelligence. Elections became
corrupt, the balance of power being. in
almost every county. in the hands of
the ignorant and venal. Suffering from
these evils, the people of the state de-
manded another convention to revise
the organic law, and in 1877 1t was
held.

A farm hand, who has been one for
the past five years, writes that he is
always up at four in the morning, and
seldom gets through choring before
nine-thirty or ten in the evening. That
every rainy day is filled to overlooking
with odd and end jobs, and that sell
dom over twenty minutes is allowed
after dinner for a breathing spell. Is
it any wonder that this man, who is a
No. 1 hand, is tempted to go to the
city, where ten hours day is all that
is required and most workmen are
fighting for eight hours or less? There
is no need for this to 10 o'clock
business on the farm any more than
anywhere else, excepting in very ex-
IRENE cases and for very short spells.

ly much cheaper, as well as better, to
add to the feed by herding out now and
then a day, or by otherwise increasing
the available feed than to add to the
fence. For a small animal the sheep
has a large stomach and wonderful
appetite to go with it. To be sure,
atrer a sheep has once learned to get
under, through or over fence the
habit will not desert it suddenly even
if the feed is provided, but good feed
will generally decrease the number
of unruly sheep in the flock wonder
fully and pood feed increase them.
The beginner with sheep should be
careful to buy only sheep accustomed
to good pasture and good fences, OF
that have been herded and then be
Just as careful never to have them on
short feed where the fences ar poor.

ance of this, few seasons with an I'M

will eclipse all former years" says M.
d. Wisdom, secretary.
The stallroom for livestock OF a

Sparks, of Reno New, will be on hand
with one of the finest herds OF Here
ford cattle in the west. He has en-
Gagged 20 stalls, and will show his en-
fire herd. He writes that the visitors

these herds will be very keen. z. e.
Ladd. of the Oak Hill stock farm, and
w O. Minor, of the Mountain Valley
stock farm, will be competitors again
this year, with two very strong herds
of Shorthorns. These men have been
competing for years, and it is believ-
ed their herds this year will surpaSs
anything exhibited before.
