TO UNVEIL MONUMENT
FOR GATE CITY GUARDS
But No Available Place is
Found

Atlanta, March 30-Atlanta faces a
serious and embarrassing situation IN
connection with the coming unwilling,
next year, of a splendid monument 20
the famous Gate City Guard" the
volunteer organization of Georgians
who fought nobly through the Civil
war, and remnant of whom still sur
vive.
This Gate City Guard was reorganiz-
ed after the war, and was known Il
over the country, visiting northern
cities and being deliberately enter
tanned.
The monument in Piedmont PARK
will commemorate the peace between
the north and south, and in return
for the hospitality extended the Gaze
City Guard in the north years ago, dis
tinguished military organizations have
been invited here for the ceremonies,
and probably twenty or thirty thOus-
and people will be here. Yet Piedmont
Park, in which the big ceremonies will
have to take place is in a positively
disgraceful condition, practically a
barren waste through which no
avenues have yet been completed, and
the city council has no money to push
the Improvement.
In this emergency three patriotic and
we'll known citizens of Atlanta, R. l..
Foreman, H NJ Ashe and George Eu-
banks, have undertaken to arouse a
spirit of public pride and by the calling
of citizens meetings to have the stu
alton met in some way or another

FIELD SELECTION
OF SEED CORN

We must fall in line with the
great wave passing over the South
which has for its object the produc.
ton of more and better corn. The
South is a corn as well as cotton
country, but IN my opinion, proper
attention has not been given to seed
corn Sc ection. Corn responds to
intelligent effort and Improvement
more quickly than does any other
plant. 1t is also very easily inAu-
enced by change of climate. For
this reason, seed corn should be
grown in the locality in which it is
to be used. We attach much i'm
portance to heredlty and breeding
in the case of live stock. 1t is an
equal Importance in seed selection.
With bat little care and trouble
the farmer can improve his seed
from year to year. The yield per
acre may very easily be increased
three to ten bushels when proper
methods of seed selection are used.
If you have a small patch of
ground that looks pretty good, and
if the ground is neither too fertile
nor 700 poor, it would be better to
select seed corn for the first year
from this patch.
When the ears are approaching
maturity, go into the field and make
a preliminary selection. The stalk
itself should be eight or nine feet
tall, having broad, well developed,
well colored leaves anu a strong,
well formed, healthy tassel. The
stalk should be upright, large and
sturdy at the base and tapering at
the top. An ear with a close fit.
ting shuck and with tendency to
turn downward should be selected.
An ear that natures early should be
preferred. If you find only one ear
on a stalk that meets your approval,
select that ear. If two ears are
well developed, select both. When
gathering time comes, throw these
previously selected ears into box
attached to the side of the wagon.
These ears should be placed in the
loft of the barn or in some dry place
where the air circulates freely. THIS |
will enable the ear to dry out quick
ly and loss of terminating power

We understand Senator Hender-
has submitted proposition to the
city council agreeing to build $50
feet of concrete walk and have it
put through to the school house
from his property, provided the
council will agree to have the walk
constructed along Poplar street.
If Senator Henderson is willing to
invest so much money in this way,
1t seems to us that property owners
along the other street should be
willing to construct their own
walks. We should take pride
enough in the appearance of our
homes to prompt us to do this.
Several citizens of the town have
already done so and their example
should be followed by all others

One of the first things for young
people to learn when starting out
in life is to steer clear of debt.
Many young man has found him
self in an uncomfortable position
later when called upon to meet his
obligations. Many young people
buy that which they do not really
need, simply because they can get
it on a credit. This same advice is
given every day by older people,
who have learned this lesson well
by actual experience.
