THE FTTURE FARMER.

According to Thomas A. Edison,
the greatest living inventor, the
present type of farmer and the pres
ent methods of farming will disap-
pear at no great distance in the
future. He believes that in place of
the farmer of today will come a
shrewd business man who will be at
once a soil-chemist, a botanist and
an economist; that in place of the
present farmers machinery will
come implements in comparison with
which the best agricultural imple-
ments now known will seem primi-
tive; that storage batteries will drive
plows that will make a dozen fur
rows each time they~crOss a field,
and harrows that will mellow the
earth more rapidly than ever horse
could mellow tin fact, that stor-
age batteries will furnish most of
the power needed on a farm.
Il think the coming farmer" said
Edison in recent interview, will
je a man on a seat beside a push
outton and some levers. The pres
ent trend all points to this conclu-
sion. We are making wonderful
Roadway. Twenty years ago we
knew almost nothing about scientific
agriculture. Now we are beginning
to get an inkling of the causes that
lie back of land deterioration. We
are also learning something about
the methods of restoring soil fertil-
ity. simultaneously invention has
brought about great improvements
in farm machinery. Gang-plovs are
now pulled by gas engines and corn
is cut and bound by machinery. 1t
is hard to keep up with the latest
thing out in the line of farm imple-
ments."
The railroads and the government
aided by the newspapers, are largely
responsible for farm progress. They
dig out the facts, and not only tel
them to the farmer, but show him
how to use them Farming is des.
tined to evolve into a great business

.Tv THE FULLNEss OF TIME"

\
It was on that fateful day in Buff
falo. in September, 1901, just be
fore the bullet of the insane anarch-
ist was fired. that President McKin-
lev. speaking to his countrymen Of
tariff policies, said The period OF
exclusiveness has passed" They
we're historical words. He had been
the leader and the spokesman of the
high protective ideas. 1t was a pol
icy that had given him fame and
power. 1t must be believed he meant
what he said. Blaine some years
earlier, had voiced the same spirit.
Had the two men lived it may be
believed the republican party would
have led the way in a movement to
tariff reform. But last year, still
holding power and responsibility,
the republican party-led by such
men as Aldrich Cannon and Payne
proceeded to infict on the Amer
lean people a tariff system even more
onerous than Blaine or Mckinley
had dared to think Of and President
Taft was forsooth content, or seem
mgly content, to acquiesce in that
programme of economic unwisdom
and injustice.
But the President is a Drawer man
than it seemed he was. We began
to think so when he selected
Southern man who had been a con-
federate soldier and is a democrat
to occupy the highest place in the
nations greatest legal tribunal Adj
ditionaI evidence Of his moral cour-
age is now afforded in his latest ut
terances and action-the submission
to congress of the proposed raciproc-
ity agreement with Canada, with
ccmmendation thereof
1t is freer trade, rather than free
trade, with our Canadian neighbors
that the President desires and urges,
but undoubtedly it is the first real
move to make a breach in the high
protective tariff wall: 1t is an eff
fort not 50 much to cheaper the
cost of living as it is to prevent the
cost from going higher. The Presi-
dent discerns the lessons of the No
yember elections, the protests of the
people, and he has the courage and
candor to recognize the meaning
and respond to the aspiration. 1t
is a historical step he has taken, and
the effects may be far-reaching The
American people will stand with and
commend him.

could form the original Adam and
make him pure by breathing into
him living and immortal soul what
hlnGers Him from creating a pure
man by natural process from a pure
man and woman? And what him
derS from especially endOwing him
before birth with the Divine nature
without going without the realm of
nature to do SO, and without setting
aside the law of nature to accom-
plish this purpose? The Bible Cthe
New Testament) teaches that Christ
is sinless and our exemplar, by
whose life our lives are to be guild
ed and measured, and that save in
His sinlessness he was man, and in
this God, and that because of His
being endowed with a double meas
ure of the Divine nature he was su-
perlor to ordinary men, but not be-
cause OF an unnatural birth. | WOr-

and hence he is my brother: but be-
ing also endowed by God with a sin
less and Divine nature He possessed
dual existence. AS a human he
knew fatigue and sorrow, and can
symapthize with me because of my
fatigue and grief. AS God He had
the power to overcome the ordinary
limitations of humanity and set
aside If need be the laws of nature.
but as men learn more of nature
and more of the laws God has or
dalned for the government of nature
IL IS possible that even the miracles
OF Christ may be explained, and we
can see more of his humanity than it
is possible at this day for us to I'M
derstand, for when God gave the
world to man to subdue He meant
all the elements of the world, and
not what we conceive as tangible
tasks. Every day new discoveries
are being made, and before another
generation shall have been born and
nave passed to the higher spheres
what we count as impossibilities will
be OF the ordinary and natural
things of life. Growing in grace
and knowledge does not mean only
learning by rote the catechism, and
under physical excitement getting
up and making spectacles of our
selves in a meeting house, but means
growing in knowledge of the things
that have gone before, and by the
experience and failures of others ac-
complishing greater things for man s
betterment in the future, and build
ing step by which those who come
after us may be able to accomDIish
more for humanity and the good Of
all than we were able to do.

Says MIR. WOOdley Knows How to
Make Cotton.

Editor Dawson News: Things
are on move up here. New pIows
are running and farmers are hauling
guanO. 1t seems that the farmers
are going to use a large quantity of
guano this year, from the amount
they are buying. They are also buy
ing large, fine mules this year, 7
guess they expect to make a big
crop of cotton, and I think this is the
year for them to make cotton, for
believe 20 cents will be a low price
later on
Well, l see one or two of the South
Carolina boys have bought in Terrell
county: We can spare you one or
two. They are coming here by the
carload. We were in hope of get
ting my friend, Mr.. WoodIev. in this

Letters from the People

A Visit to the Dear Old Homestead.
On the End inst, in company with
c. R. Bynum, Esq, l met with the
appraisers of the John T. Orr estate
at the dear old homestead of Major
T. n. McWilliams. With pious rev.
erence and an uncovered head did
l gaze upon the ancient house, now
dilapidated and tottering to decay,
which was the habitation of my ven
cradle father and which sheltered
me in my childhood and early youth.
With a faltering hand do | withdraw
the curtain that wells the shades of
my fond parent, for the recOIlections
of those scenes and times are IA
nous. 1t was here he drew around
me his strong arm of protection, and
on that memorable Sabbath day,
Nov. 9th, 1851, he pressed my hand,
breathed his last and left me a little
orphan boy. Nearly 60 years have
passed since then, and yet methinkB,
sometimes, that l can see him just
as l saw him then; for, gentle read
er, as | thought then, and yet think,
he was the greatest and grandest
man | ever knew. This is just the
opinion every boy should entertain
Of his parents. Only the faintest rec
objection | have of my sainted moth
er, being just years, Z months and
26 days old when she died. Father
removed from Houston county,
near Henderson, to the old home
stead in January, 1914, so I have
know this country 81 years. 1t is
simply amusing to hear one ask the
question, 'Who is Alex McWilliams,
anyhow"
Sixteen years ago I wrote up my
family tree-going back to Scotland,
the home of my paternal, and to Ire
land, that of my maternal ancestry,
the Irwins-much of which | learned
from history. My little head becomes
dizzy when l think of my ancestry,
for it is like passing over the Mag
ara Falls to step from their shout
ders to those of my own. But, go
ing back to 1914, l recall only D. D.
L. West, his sister, Mrs. Eliza Ellis,
E. F. Bynum, Mrs. Martha Compton
and Mrs. Georgia King, who were
here then. All the others are gone
Were | to go into a strange country
| would seek out the pioneers, the
earliest settlers, and get all the in
formation possible of the customs
of the people, and | will take pleas
ure in telling the inquirer anything
from 1914 down to the present time
will state that this was originally
Lee county with thirty-fve districts,
No. l beginning at Flint river and
No. Z reaching to the Chattahoochee
river below Georgetown, which is
in the eighth district, beginning the
second range of districts and ending
with No. IA at Flint river; then the
third range of districts begins with
the fifteenth district and ends with
the twenty-frst at Chattahoochee
river. You will see that Quitman
county was made from the eighth
and twenty-first districts of origi-
nally Lee county. There, too, is a
portion of the seventh, just south of
Georgetown, that is in Quitman
county T. A. M'WILLTAMS.

Although all of our readers ought
to know by this time that this is
an unbroken rule of The News, as

We never publish the name of a

We have no means of knowing
who the writer's OF communications

THE ELECTION OF SENATOR'S.

There can be very little doubt in
the mind of any man who studies
political conditions as they are that
a very large majority Of the people
of this country have come to favor
the election of United States sena-
tors by the people, and are looking
10 congress to provide Immediately
the machinery necessary to put in
operation this reform.
As the Rome Tribune says, the
American people are disguised With
the old method of senatorial cleo
tions-the legislative method. They
have seen so much Of log-rolling,
hair-pullng, brow-beating and brib-
cry that they have determined upon
a change-and they mean to have it.
Senators like Depew, Kean and Root
may oppose it-for various reasons,
no doubtful they will be power
less to head it off

SPARE THE GENTLE DOVE.

twenty-five Americas gunners,
with those in that neighborhOOd
enjoyed yesterday one Of the best
dove shoots of the season, and
bagged over three hundred of the
cooling dovelets. The dove shoot
ing season is just at its best now,
and thousands of the birds will
be slaughtered. -Americus Times
Recorder
Huntsman, spare the doves. You
will not only add stars to your celes-
tial crown by so doing, but you will
spare your neighbor, and yourself
perhaps, many hard ticks killing
weeds out Of your next crop. One
dove in the field is worth more than
a dozen in the dish, as it has been
demonstrated that their chief diet is
weed seeds of every kind, and ex-
perts on the subject attribute the
multiplication of weeds largely to
the increased destruction of the dove
by gunners of recent years; and they
further claim that doves and robins
are enormously classed as game
birds, while really they are among
the best friends of mankind. Isn't
it time to call a halt on the pro
miscuous slaughter of such useful
creatures just for the wanton pleas
ure of filing the game bag? Anyhow
do your part toward preventing
their complete determination until
-he legislature awakans to the wis
Iona of proper legal protection fo1
iuch birds.

WHERE WE COME IN.
n the Savannah Press.

FROM the savannah Press.
One thing about Canadian Teci-
procity is that fruits from America
are to be admitted free. Last sum-
mer the Georgia Fruit Exchange
shipped eighteen carloads of peaches
to Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal.
The duty on each crate was SO cents,
the duty on each car $203.30, and
the total duty on the eighteen cars
SO, 664.40. The removal of the So
cent tariff on a crate of peaches
means that the Canadian market for
Georgia peaches would be broadened
considerably and given an impetus
which would eventually reach large
proportions. Judge Taft's reciproc-
ity treaty with Canada may be a
valuable thing after all.

Why Editors Need Farms.
n the Savannah News.

From the Savannah News.
The Rome TribuneHerald hears
that editors and lawyers are buying
farms in Ware county. What" it
asks, does an editor or a lawyer
want with a farm, unless it is to
borrow money on it?" Goodness!
Has our Rome friend never become
wise to the fact that editors need
some outlet for the expenditure of
their surplus cash? They must have
farms, or memories, or yachts-or
something.

INDIRECT TAXATION.

New York state, in order to avoid
aXing land and buildings, has tried
maintain itself by indirect taxa
ton, and is going to give it up. An
experience of several years has
shown that the state cannot meet
its needs with revenue gained only
from indirect sources, such as is. de-
rived from taxes levied on corpora
lions, inheritances, stock transfers,
mortgages, ale, beer etc, and in
order to keep clear of debt it will
turn to that which will.
Even with taxing everything in
sight save real estate New York is
falling behind. Governor Dix says
that the estimated expenditures over
the income of the state is $13,00O,-
600, and from this it can be seen
that either the tax gatherer's field
must be widened or economies en-
forced with a ruthless hand. The
probabilities are that the former will
be resorted to.

Mr.. Rives Discusses the Divinity
of Christ.

Most OF our false conclusions are
brought about from following ira
dition and not doing our own think
ing. The preacher, no matter what
creed he holds with, follows the
standards of his church without in
curing as to whether the standards
are right or wrong, or from what
source they were derived originally.
All protestants think it their relig-
lous duty to damn catholicism wher-
ever found, yet their main beliefs
are bOttOmed on Catholic tradition
and superstition, and not on the BIZ
Bile. Take the immaculate birth of
the Christ. There is no prophecy
that points to a Divine bagetting of
him, vet question that and you will
nave about your ears the whole
gamut of curses by Protestant and
Catholic alike; yet this is Isaiah's
prophesy: Behold a virgin shall con-
celVe and bring forth a son, and shall
call his name Emmanuel And Luke's
account does not preclude a mortal
rather. for he says of the annuncia-
ton: He shall be great and shall
be called the son of the Highest:
and the Lord God shall give unto
him the throne of his father David:
and he shall reign over the house
of Jacob forever; and of his king
dom there shall be no end" "And
the Holy Ghost shall come upon thee
and the power of the highest shall
overshadow thee; therefore that no.
ly thing that shall he born of thee
shall be called the Son of God "
