latest bulletins from Washington re-
lating to the care of his live stock and
the cultivation of his soil, but he
sends his sons to the agricultural col
lege, and is quite willing to learn a
thing or two. His obdurate neighbor
can see no good in this; he will per.
sist in planting the same field from
season to season without regard to
the loss of fertility.
So are men made. OF these two
farmers, one is a wise man, the other
is not. Washington was a farmer: SO
was Jefferson. They put brains into
the cultivation of their land and. al
though it is doubtful whether either
one of them ever hardened his hands
by actual toll, both of them made
farming pay. We are living in a day
when arduous labor on the farm is
not so necessary as it was twenty
years ago. The shrewd tiller of the
soil is now saving time and strength
by the employment of mechanical
agencies. These lessen the burden of
farming and give him great advan-
tage over his less progressive neigh
Dor, who still c1ings to the old meth
DDS, which keep him poor, notwith-
standing his unceasng labor.

THE FARMER WHO GOES AHEAD

The successful farmers of TODAY
are the ones who feel an interest in
their work, who look on it with the
same pride that the professional man
does on his profession, as something
worthy of their highest efforts, as
an aVocation that is entitled to intelli-
gent application, to the closest study
OF It's possibilities, to the concentra-
ton of mental as well as physical en-
ergies in its development. The farmer
VINO regards his business as merely
a drudgery, something that he is to do
IN order to obtain a living, who finds
IN it nothing beyond this, is very apt
to prove a failure. 1t requires differ
ent spirit to achieve success in agri-
culture, just as it does in the law. or
medicine, or manufacturing or
trading line. The man whose daily
work is tedious bore to him is
doomed to disappointment in the re-
suits. The best that is in him has
not been devoted to his work, and the
work is fruitless because of the lack
OF interest, of sympathy, of appreci-
alton of what can be done.
The progressive farmer of today
has a vast field of opportunities open
to him. In no other line of life has
there been greater and more varied
progress. In no other is there more
developing that is charged with in
tense interest, that is capable OF
arousing enthusiasm, of bringing m
to play the highest abilities man pos
sesses. The story of agricultural de-
velopment during the past twenty
five years reads like a romance. And
each new year brings new and more
wonderful discoveries as the results
of fresh researches. Science is to-
day the hand maiden of agriculture
as it has never before been in the
history of man, and some of the finest
brains in the world are continuously
devoting themselves to Investigations
that will mean much for the one in
dustry above all that man is depend
ent upon.
Under the caption 1.-TWO kinds of
farmers" the Philadelphia Press re-
fers to the type that goes forward,
keeps abreast with the time and the
other that is content with the more
meagre results and laborious efforts
of past methods. 1t says:
The really earnest effort that has
been made by Mr.. Wilson, Secretary
of Agriculture, to advance the inter
ests of the common farmer and teach
him how to extract the utmost value
from his soil, would be utterly use
less unless he encountered from the
farmer a desire to 1earn-a willing
sympathy and frank trust.
Most Of the successful farmers in
the Middle West were born and bred
in the East They know the differ
ence between rocky, exhausted land
and virgin black loan. Yet in the
ranks of these same agriculturists
there Is a sharp division. The more
advanced farmer not only reads the

WHEN III ALL STARTED.
Life.l

(Life)
When Adam met Eve he was bashful
and shy,
And he stammered and blushed every
time she came nigh,
Till at last he grew bold and began
to pay court
(You may put all your trust in this
faithful report,
And he murmured to her on an even
ing serene:
You're the prettiest girl that l ever
have seem
And that's how THAT started.
When Eve, with a beautiful blush on
her face,
Yielded shyly and sweetly to Adams
embrace,
And put up her red lips for the true
lovers pact
(You may set this down as an abso-
lutte fact)
She inquired, while he breathed the
fond names on his list:
Have you said taht to all the girls
you have kissed?"
And that's how THAT started
When Adam asked Eve if she would
be his bride,
She looked up and looked down, and
she sighed and she sighed,
And she let him take hold of her lily
white hand
(This is history now, as you must I'M
derstand)
Then she said in voice that was
dulcetly low:
Il must take time to think 'Tis so
sudden, you,know."
And that's how THAT started
When they had been married a few
years or so,
Then Adam told Eve 'Were invited
to go,
To dinner and dance with some
friends down in Nod"
(This is true, authentic, although il
sounds odd)
Eve replied with sad and a sorrow.

Il can't go. Don't you see I have

CANT BLUFF GOVERNOR BROWN
THAT WAY.

The latest political gossip to come
out of Atlanta is that ex-Gov. Smith
will run for governor this year, if
Gov. Brown offers for reelection.
But if Gov. Brown will content him
self with one term, and allow entirely
new candidates to take the field, the
former governor will refrain from
entering the race.
So many canards are originated
IN Atlanta that we are inclined to
label this as story of this character.
But it is quite possible that it NAV
have emanated from friends of the
former governor, or even perhaps
from the office boy in the ante-room
to his private law office. It's pur-
pose may be to brighten Gov. Brown.
to discourage him frmo entering the
coming contest. It is a covert threat
that the Smith interests will make if
hot for the present executive if ne
has any ambition to succeed him
self, and that the best thing for him
to do is to retire gracefully without
the trouble of a second campaign and
its possibilities of defeat.
That, at least, is what one NAV an
parently read between the lines of
this latest gossip. But if that is the
intent it is pretty safe assertion that
it will signally fail to accomplish it's
purpose. Little Joe" was not afraid
to tackle the Goliath of Georgia poll
tics two years ago, when everything
seemed hopeless, when no one was at
first inclined to take him seriously
He certainly will not be afraid to
come up to the scratch again, with
the Smith prestige so tremendously
weakened and his own so vastly in
creased Gov. Brown is no braggart.
But neither is he a political craven.
Some people doubtless think becauss
he is not bombastic, continually
boastful, INDUCING in fireworks and
threats, or persistenly raising a
clamor about what he has done and
proposes to do, that Gov. Brown is
timid, fearful, and easily to be driven
from the field. But SUCH people were
never more mistaken in their lives.
When the time for nominations come
Little Joe" will be right in the cen
ire of the field. And back Of him will
be the 10000 voters who supported
him two years ago, plus many, many
thousands of those who did not sup
port him then but are now staunch
Brown men.
Those who are so industriously try
ing to drive Gov. Brown from the
field as a probable candidate for an
other term are wasting their efforts
They will accomplish nothing. The
people Of Georgia will demand that
Gov. Brown enter the race and then
they will proceed to re-elect him with
q majority that will make the last one
sink into insignificance.

IT SHOULD BE GIVEN A TRIAL.

We do not know whether any es-
pecial attention is being paid by the
members Of the Board of Education
to the recent recommendation of Sup
erintendent of Schools Miller that ar
rangements be made for regular ex-
aminations, by competent physicians,
of the children in the public schools
in order that signs of incipient dis
eases might be noticed and the atten
ton of parents directed to them. Ex-
perience elsewhere is showing that
such examinations are productive of
very beneficial results. Many children
are found to need professional atten-
ton that when given improves
their mental capacity as well as their
physical condition. Pupils who have
been backward in their studies in the
classroom are frequently found to be
suffering from inconvenience that
are easily removed at small expense.
The fact that parents do not discover
such things is no reflection upon
them. 1t requires the skill of the ply
stefan MAAbring to light the fact that
an q amedied trouble is back Of

1t is quite probable that similar
examination of the children in the
public schools of Americas would
bring to light a considerable number
who have ailments easily remedied,
that are not receiving attention, be-
cause of the fact that parents are
ignorant of their existence. If the
Board of Education saw fit to arrange
for regular visitations Of physicians to
the schools, with an examination of
the children at the time, it is more
than likely that parents and children
would both have cause to subsequent
ly bless them for it. Of course, there
are people to whom SUCH attention on
the part of the Board of Education
to the highest interests of their child
rem would be Objectionable, but such
people will be found to form but a
very small part of til community
and even their opposition will doubt
less speedily disappear once it is
found that the results are what Supt.
Miller and other educators have point
ed out. The experiment might well be
made and extended over at least one
term of the school year to discover
whether there is sufficient reason to
justify making it a permanent feature
of the public educational system.
