The Recent state Fair and Its Lesson

The Recent state Fair and Its Lesson.
The recent State Fair was the best
display of the agricultural products
of every section of Georgia that we
remember to have ever seen.
Every kind of table vegetable was
ON exhibition and our great staple
cdops made a magnificent display.
There was an ocular demonstration OF
the truth that a Georgia farmer can
raise at home nearly, if not everything,
that he needs in the way of food for
himself and for his stock.
The cotton of the very best varieties
showed what can be accomplished by
the judicious selection of seed and the
employment of the best methods of cul.
tivation. Samples from land that by
skillful preparation and fertilization
and cultivation had by the use of well
selected seed, produced from tnree to
five bales to the acre, were calculated
to make one, inquire; "if a few men.
using the best methods, can accom-.
cannot many by the same methods do
as well with most of the land on which
cotton is raised?"
The dispaly Of poultry and of live
stock was also suggestive of prosper.
Gus farmers and well-to-do people, who
know now to live and enjoy life
Let the lesson of the State Fair
impel every farmer to diligently make
the best of the noble heritage that God
has given to the people of the grand
old Empire State of the South.

Points In Feeding Pigs.

Pigs that have been kept thrifty and
growing on nutritious and cooling
grasses are in such healthy condition
that they are able to digest large guam
titles of feed and utilize 1t to the great.
est extent. Pigs grown and handled
in his way can be finished up rapidly
and turned off at the greatest profit.
Wheat is superior to corn as a feed
for young pigs. 1t carries Gess fat and
more lean meat. Wheat should always
be ground before feeding to pigs Bar.
ley is most satisfactory food and
makes a most excellent quality of pork.

TALK ON IMMIGRATION
What Secrtary Hudson Has t o
Say on This Subject.
GEORGIA OPENS WIDE HER GATES

The Scarcity of Labor and the unreIi.
ability of Negroes as Farm HANDS
Is Grave Problem that the South
Is Now Facing.
The scarcity of labor and the fact
that the negro is becoming yearly
more unreliable as a tiller of the soil,
have conspired to make the subject
OF immigration one of intense interest
to the planters of the South. Hith,
erto our people have been accustomed
to feel and to say that negro labor is
the best for the cotton fields. But
more than once have we heard the
Wtsn expressed that we could bring in
class Of better Iaborers who could
be depended upon to keep their con.
tracts and to take hold of all the inn
proved methods of cultivation Some
have suggested the bringing in of Chi
nese as a solution of the labor prob.
lem; but we do not favor the intro.
duction of any more inferior races with
the consequent risk of mongrel pop,
ulation in these Southern States
We favor immigration, but if it is
possible to do SO, We would have a
strict quarantine against even a large
class of European immigrants, and
much more SO against Asiatics.
There was time when no questions
were asked concerning the class OF
European immigrants that came to our
snores, and we threw open our doors
to welcome the poor and the oppressed
Of every nation of white people, as,
suring them In the words of one Of ou1
once favorite songs.

Uncle Sam has room enough
To give you all farm"

But it has been learned from sad
experience that the pauper criminal
class that every year flock to our
shores, collect in places here and
there, especially in our large cities
and are the breeders Of lawlessness
and anarchy.
From the establishment of the gov,
eminent of the United States until
1882 every encouragement was given
to the foreigner to come and no ques.
tions were asked as to previous char.
acter. The first immigration act
passed by congress was in 1864, AMI
this was to promote ana not restrain
it. This act was repealed four years
later. On the 3rd of August, 1882, the
first restrictive act was passed, for the
purpose of-barring out criminals, insane
and paupers, all of whom were to be
returned at the expense of the owners
Of the vessels on which they had
come. The Secretary of the Treasury
was empowered to carry it out and
make suitable regulations, including
contracts with the State officials.
On the 26th of February, 1885, a.
still more drastic act was passed, pro
hibiting any laborer to come over
under contract to work. 1t failed tG
except professional men or skilled Ia
borers and, while it was aimed at
strike-breakers and cheap gangs, was
enforced by fanatical or interested
persons against artists, musicians
architects and even clergymen to the
discredit of the country's good sense
and to the point of making our gov.
ernment ridiculous in the eyes of the
world 1t mas since been somewhat
modified, so as to remedy to some
extent these defects In 1891 the act
of 1882 was SO amended as to include
all assisted" immigrants and the
whole matter placed in the hands OF
the general government.
The act of the 3rd of March, 1903
further amended it by requiring a pre-
liminary examination at the point OF
departure and giving the government
the right to deport the immigrant
landed in defiance of the act within
two years after arrival. 1t was ex
tended against all persons advocating
the overthrow of all governments and
the assassination of public officials.
The number of persons deported VI
to 1900, out Of 3,384420 immigrants
was only 28,184.
Georgia opens wide her gates to al
foreigners of good character, whether
they be rich or poor and bids them
come in with a welcome to all that
our laws can give to make secure thei1
right to life, liberty and the pursuit OF
happiness.
We would add, however, that we
prefer immigration from our brethren
of the North and West, Americans
already familiar with American laws
customs and institutions.
But rightfully those whom we thus
invite ask of us, What have you to-
offer?" We offer homes in the midst
of as hospitable and God-fearing a
people as can be found anywhere
within the bounds of the United
States, and in a State whose lands in
every section, in spite of all obstacles,
have steadily increased in value and
under the influence OF cotton selling
at from to IL cents a pound will

ordered an election to determin
whether Goldsboro shall remain a;
| prohibition town or return to the
f! open bar.
| For two years, the coming Janu-

physical development of the city,
the increment in the value of real
.~estate, the building Of residential
abodes, the number Of new com
merical houses, the increase in the
volume of trade-upbuiiding along
all lines of legitimate and per-
manent progress, has been unprece-

CONGRESSMAN THEODORE
BURTON.

There is still talk of making Mr..
Burton chairman of the appropria-
.tions committee, but great as that
position is, it would not be a promo
ton to THEODORE Burton. No that
he would not make a fine chairman
of that committee and an effective
floor leader, but he should not be
transferred, because he knows more
about rivers and harbor5 than all the
rest of Congress. He is infeNibly
honest, and he will not permit any
considerable sums to be wasted on a
work that will never bring results.
He stands by any river or harbo1
that the people need and will use.
Some small sums are forced through
over his head, bat nc considerable
money is voted against his iudg-
ment. Every member Of Congress
knows he is the n man who can
not be deceived as to the need O.
Improvement of a given river Oh
harbor. He knows the commercial
possibility and value of every on
of them, and this is why he shoult
be returned at the head of the river
and harb0rs committee.
The long and short of it is, tn
head of the country need
him atthe head Of the committe
that he has long honored. He
the greatest chairman it has eve
had, and he is should stay where h
is as long as he stays in the Houst
