Within the last ten days number
of men of prominence in the great ag-
ricultural world have come to Ameri-
Gus to visit the Agricultural College;
among them being Mr.. E. Gentry. state
agent for the United States Depart
ment of Demonstration wo.I, Mir. saw

as agent for the South Eastern states,
and Mr. w. Il. Mitchell "Sumter's big
farmer"
On the DIST, Mr.. D. ]. Crosby, a spec
ialist, representing the United States
Department Of Agriculture, will be at
the school, while on the 7th of March
at p. m. Major F. l. Palmer and
Lieutenant Clendening, of the United
States Army, will visit the school 20
review and inspect the military de-
partment.
The management of the school have
planned to invite from time to time
successful farmers, men who have sue
ceeded in the agricultural world, TO
visit the school, that the leading maa
of the section may know of the work
being done, and at the same time the
students may be inspired by the ez-
ample of these successful farmers
Everybody knows "Bill' Mitchell
he aspires no higher title of honor.
True, he has achieved that success
from the Agricultural and financial
world that places him high up in the
ranks among the captains of achtey-
ments and industry, yet he has not
been courting honors, but has been
battling for success.
Starting at the very bottom, With
out a dollar, Mr.. Mitchell has stuck 20
the farm and has accumulated for
tune that he himself can hardly esti-
mate.
What Oglethorps big farmer is 20
Georgia plain Bill Mitchell is to sum
ter county and the Third District.
There may be other large farmers, but
not like these two distinguished Geor-
gians, who stand prominently aooye
others, for the reason they have made
every dollar they own. Mr. Mitohsl4 IS
an example for every aspiring farmer
boy.
Possibly, no publ venture in SUm-
ter county was ever launched under
more unfavorable conditions, than was
the Agricultural College here
Only few had the courage to talk
success and these fe wseemed to SO ex-
press themselves as acts of kindness
to those at the helm. Everybody pre-
dicted failure-a monumental failure.
No one, Eyes a few did, saw any need
for the school The management was
fully sensible to the situation. The
fight for mere existence began
The struggle went ont was heard.
Many prominent citizens opposed the
(what they called venture, and Mr..
Mitchell was among the number. But
today Mr. Mitchell is one Of the best
friends the school has. He now sees
possibilities for the school which are
practical, and which had not dawned
upon those who have been closer to the
work
Supt J. NJ. Collum, who has been

TO RESTORE GEORGES
Old Home
Al Wakefield Where His Bow
hood Days Passed

Washington, d. c., Feb. 1S.-The res
JorarioA OF tne old building at Wake
field, Va, where George Washington
was born and spent the early days OF
his life IS being considered by several
Washington civic associations, and
likely will be brought about through
the efforts OF the Washington Board
of Trade
A special committee from that or
saai22Jion is to be appointed to consid-
er the adyisability Of such a scheme.
At the last meeting Of the board DR..
William Tindall. secretary of the board
Of commissioners, introduced a resolu-
ton to this effect.
In discussing the matter, DR.. Tindall
said:
AT present the birthplace Of George
Washington at Wakefield, on Popes
Creek, a few miles southwest Of Colon
ial Beach, is marked by shaft erected
by the United States government in a
solitary and neglectful locality 1t
seems almost unbelievable that the
patriotic sentiment of the state of Vir-
ginia and the United States generally
was not alive to the importance OF
preserving from destruction the house
in which Washington was born or that
an attempt to evoke a sentiment for its
restoration has not earlier been made
In any other country on the earth q
spot hallowed by such patriotic asso-
citation would have been the subject of
tAe utmost solicitude and care and its
accessibility been correspondence
futhered To get to this spot at pres
ent it is necessary to go to Colonial
Beach by steamer and then proceed by
wheel conveyance through a desolate,
roundabout course for many miles or
to take small steam or sailing craft
from Colonial Beach to the wharf on
the Potomac River and then walk the
few miles that intervenes between that
point and the Wakefield tract.
"a large proportion of the visitors
who come to Washington, especially
during the milder months, would
doubtless regard a trip to this point as
much a reverential duty as they now
look upon their visit to Mount Vernon.
/
1t is strange that it has not appealed
to the managers of the steamboat lines
running to Colonial Beach to excite
public sentiment on the subject if only
for the benefit it would be to their
traffic. The scenic aspect of the broad
and picturesque Potomac at this poin
would alone repay the visitor for thu
cost and trouble the pilgrimage woulC

ut is doubtful that a hundred PEG
pie in the country are aware of tn,
conditions mentioned. So utterly hql

WASHINGTON'S BOOKS.
Priceless Collection, Bearing His Auto
graphs, In Boston Athenaeum.

Priceless Collection, Bearing His Auto
graphs, In Boston Athenaeum.
In reviewing the final disposition of
Washington's worldly goods it is inter-
esting to recall the occasion when the
larger part of his library, through the
generosity Of public spirited citizens,
became the property Of the Boston
Athenaeum. Here the bulk of Wash
ington's private library is now kept,
carefully catalogued, snugly shelved
and jealousy guarded by stone walls.
The collection includes 45J volumes
and about $50 pamphlets. OF these,
354 volumes, including SO made up OF
pamphlets bound together and several
hundred unbound pamphlets, may be
assigned to General Washington's Ii
Orary, the large majority of them
without question. The remaining
eighty bound volumes and the rest Of
the pamphlets belonged to Judge Bush
rod Washington or to other members
of the Washington family.
The library committee of the athe-
naeum trustees in January, 1919,
when 1t reported on this invaluable
addition to the library, said:
"The greater number of these books
contain General Washington's auto
graph, all of which, so distinguished,
and next after them those which We're
presentation copies to him, and next
to them those which contain his book
plate or can in any other way be
proved to have been in his possession,
would have been regarded, even in
Europe, as curiosities of great inter
est and value and would command
prices which might seem incredible to
one unacquainted with the sums given
for objects associated with the mem

keep alive the spirit of liberty.
This within certain limits is
probably true, and in govern
ments of nonarehicaI cast pa
triotism may look with indul-
gence, if not with favor, upon
the spirit of party. But in those
of popular character, in govern
ments purely elective, it is
spirit not to be encouraged.
Of all the dispositions and
habits which lead to political
prosperity, religion and morality
are indispensable supports.
Observe good faith and justice
toward all nations. Cultivate
peace and harmony with all.
Against the insidious wiles of
foreign influence conjure you
to believe me, fellow citizens,
the jealousy of a free people
ought to be constantly awake,
since history and experience
prove that foreign influence is
one Of the most baneful foes Of
republican government.
