The whole world is looking for
people who can be relied upon to
do something. The cry OF the bus
mess world is for men and wo.
men who will takehold and bring
out some result. Never was there
a time when opportunity was SO
abundant or when capable men
and women were SO nearly all oc-
cupied. There is ample room for
everybody who is willing to try.

state Prohibition In deorgia.
Progressive FarIner.l

The State of Georgia has gone
dry. By legislative enactment,
with the support OF overwhelm-
ing majority after stormy fight,
the Empire State OF the South
has been placed under a strin-
gent prohibition measure which
is to become operative over the
entire State on the first OF next
January. The State OF Sam Jones
thus becomes the first one in the
South to launch out under the
prohibition banner, and 1T is no
occasion for wonder at all that
his widow and his name-sake son
should be among the very first
to wire congratulations to the
winning leaders in strenuous con-
test.
There are in the minds Of some
good people feelings OF misgiy-
ing as to the wisdom OF applying
prohibition to o State except
through the process OF local op-
,, tion elections. But If the princi-
pie Of Stale prohibition by legis'
lative enactment, or even by ma
jority OF the popular vote, may
seem too venturesome, it should
be remembered that bad disease
often demand severe remedies
The memory OF recent race riots
lin Atlanta is still fresh in public
mind, and these bloody outbreak
are closely associated with t h'
inspiration derived from th'
whisky dives. The destruction o
these dens OF evil by the State o
Georgia, whether-sAtlanta ant
other saloon cities wish it ornot
cannot fail to work out for tn
good OF the communities soncerl

black; but if the benefit were fel
only by the negro, the applica
tion OF State prohibition woul'

Education and Self. Control.

The moral responsibility rest
ing upon the educated man is al
ways held to be greater by the
mass of humankind than upon
the uneducated. His training is
supposed to fit him peculiarly to
assume civic burdens because OF
well-balanced judgment and aper
feet understanding OF the results
consequent upon his inability to
carry out public service with sig
nal devotion. To such casualists
there is no distinction between ed
ucation Of the mind and educa-
tion Of character; the two ideas
seem synonymous. Yetin thelast
analysis, was there ever, could
there possibly be, a grosser fala-
cy? Education is self-control, or
education in character-for char

self control-is by no means de-

or reasoning processes. 1t is con-

: ShulIs Mills and Fosco,.
(Lenoir News.)

On a recent visit to Blowing
Rock, through thecourtesy of Mr.,
y. Il. Coifey, we took a pleasant
trip to Shulls Mills and Foscoe.
AS most of our readers may know
Shulls Mills is the old home of
the lateCapt. WalterLenoir. who
was so popular with and such a
friend OF the people of Watauga.
Mr.. Joe Shull still occupies his
hospitable home there, while Mr..
W. V. Galloway is now the owner
OF the old Stonwall Mills from
which the place takes its name.
Mr.. G. W. Robbins is conducting
as successful mercantile business
and is enjoying q good trade.
lhere are numerous we'll kept
farms in vicinity and a large crop
OF very superior hay has j II s t
been harvested. Among the sue
cessful farmers may be mention
ed Mr.. j. c. Shull, Mr.. J. A. Wood.
lie, Mr. E. S. Gragg, a for m e r
Caldwell man, and Joe Phippsand
Others. All OF these well ke D t
farms show that the owners take
a pride in their work and they
are enjoying the fruits OF their
labors to, the fullestextent. There
are many fine cattle and sheep
to be seen on the pastures q n d
every springhouse is stocked with
the finest milk and butter. An
interesting enterprise in the vicin
|ity of Foscoe, which is situated
two miles up the beautiful Wat
.auga river from Shulls Mills, is a
ginseng garden owned by Messrs
j. B. Johnson and Julius Gala
way. The ginseng plant is a deli
cate plant that has it's favorite
habitat in the densely shaded
covers and glens of the noun
tains. 1t is of slow growth at
tanning it's full maturity at the
age OF seven years. 1t takes a
year for the seed to germinate
land thea under careful attention
the little or sprouting seeds are
transferred from the terminating
boxes to the muck beds hauled
in from the woods. The beds ol
muck are arranged much like an
ordinary plant bed and the little
ginseng plants are set six to ten
inches apart in the beds. These
beds are all of the rich m u X

the cultivation of the little plants
simply consists in keeping the
beds clear of weeds and keepine

The whole garden is covered ovel
and fenced in with a substantial
lattice, giving to the plants d

seed at the age OF three to four
years and these seed are carefully
harvested and planted. The root
