SCIENCE SAVES 4 MILLION
DOLLARS TO GEORGIA FARMS

The interesting statement is made by MIR. H. b.
Layton, secretary Of the Triton Chamber of Com
merce, that the governments farm demonstration
work in southwest Georgia during the spring and
summer of the current year has saved the people
of that section at least a million dollars.
He bases his estimate upon the difficulties that
beset the and the adverse conditions that were
overcome by of applied agricultural knowledge
The corn crop would have been almost failure, he
says, and the cotton yield would have been sorely
reduced had it not been for the timely counsel and
encouragement which was given the farmers in their
time of need through the demonstration system.
The excessive and continuous rains gave rise TO
extraordinary problems. The invasion of many
plany parasites added the untoward outlook There
were thus divers perils and obstacles before which
the socaled old-time methods Of cultivation stood
helpless. Then 1t that the vital value Of scien-
tilc insight and treatment proved itself.
What the government experts did for this one
section Of the State agricultural education can do
for the entire commonwealth Georgia never spends
wisely than that she appropriates to her
College of Agriculture and to the department of
entomology. She has developed enterprise OF
more far-reaching Importance than the Boys Corn
Clubs and kindred organizations devoted to the fur
therance of scientific agriculture The progress of
the territory about Triton and of southwest Georgia
in general is due largely to the fact that these dis
trcts encourage so heartily all those lines of en-
deavor Of which the clubs and the demonstra-
ton work representative.

FEDERAL AID FOR GOOD ROADS

Though the United States Senate has defeated the
House measure to provide federal aid for the deve
opment of good roads, the issue here involved is of
too vital import to the people to die or lag
Sooner later Congress will be compelled to respond
to the countrys needs and place the aid of the
national government of the states in this great
work.
The average cost of wagon hauling in this coun
try is twenty-five cents per ton per mile
IN France, Germany and England this cost is only
ten cents per ton per mile
This glazing difference is due to the fact that the
European governments have given much thought and
energy and liberal appropriations to the development
and the maintenance of their highways.
AS a result, their farmers have in this particular
at least richer advantage and surer means to
prosperity.
The cost of wagon transportation in the United
States amounts to little less than billion dollars
annually. 1t has been conservativey reckOned that
good roads would reduce this enormous cost by at
least half The money thus saved would go into
the pockets of the farmer and of the public at large
The federal government should apply itself to this
important enterprise.

GEORGIA,S OPPORTUNITY
IN THE NATIONAL CAMPAIGN

The ranks of Georgia workers for the Wilson
Marshall fund rapidly growing PubIc-minded
citizens and progressive newspapers are falling in
line to render practical service in order that this
state may have its due part in the national Demo
cratic campaign. This good spirit is exemplihed in
the Elberton STAR which has opened a subscription
list with the following appeal to the people of It's
community:
"The election Of Woodrow Wilson, the Dem
ocrdtic nominee, should every loyal
Democrat to put his shoulder to the toheel He
should giUe literally of his time and money If
the people are thoroughly informed as to the
principles for l0hich our candidate stands, then
ICE haze little to fear"
What the Star is doing in its own district every
Georgia daily and weekly should undertake; and it
is gratifying to note that scores of them have
already done So Let every true Democrat contribute
to the Wilson.Marshall fund. Large subscriptions
are not essential. Their number is more important
than their amount. The state should put its col
lectve patriotism behind the partys leaders and aid
in pressing forward to the great cause they
represent

A POOR EXCUSE.

Ever since The Journal called attention to the fact
that Georgia not represented in the official notf
fcaton OF the Democratic presidential nominee va
rious members Of the Baltimore delegation have bus
led themselves in trying to explain this regrettaoe
circumstance. Chairman PendletOn has advanced
several excuses but none of them TO the root OF
the trouble He SAYS for instance that the Hon. j.
Flynt was appointed to represent the state in the
notification of Mr.. Wilson Seagirt but that Dir.
Fqylt found it impossible attend the ceremonies.
Well and good. far it goes. But the essential
fact is that the committee in charge Of the notca
ton was never furnished with the of Georgia's
representative That is the glazing feature Of this
Official negligence that placed the state in false and
distinctly embarrassing light before the national
Democracy. Somebody failed to let the committee
know that a representative had even been named
from Georgia result the space opposite Georgias
name on the notification document was blank; and
this was the only state in all the Union OF which
that was true The incidental fact that Mr. Flynt
was providentaIly hindered from going to Seagnt
does not explain the important fact that the ma
tional committee was not notified of who Georgia's
accredited representative was, in order that his
name might be duly inserted where it belonged.
For this neglect. there can be
Chairman Pendleton states that the Hon. Il. q.
Dickerson. who has been appointed to serve from
Georgia the notification to the vice presidential
nominee also has found it impossible to be present
at the proper time We do not know whether any
steps have been taken to notify the committee of
the states representative in this instance; but if
not. they should be taken at once. in order that
Georgia may be saved additional discredit.
This entire situation is much to be deplored. 1t
is calculated to give the country at large
preston that Georgia is Indifferent not unfrendy,

campaign. Precisely the reverse, of course, is true
but when the is left utterly without represen-

pie who informed 10 Gsorgia's true
timent are likely to draw false and really damag-
ing conclusions.

committee in charge Of the Seagirt ceremonies was
given no notice whatsoever that representative
from Georgia Asd been named. 1t snOuld De seen

PULLING" MILEAGE.

The Legislature settled a long yexed issue and
ren0ered substantial service TO commercial travel
when it passed bin requiring the railroads in
this state to accept mileage" aboard trains as the
equivalent OF regular tickets For reasons or rather
pretextS, which have never been made thoroughly
clear, the roads have persisted in compelling the
owners OF mileage books TO exchange their coupons
for special trip tickets. This redape rule entailed
upon the travelling men a grievous loss OF time
which often meant loss OF money. It was con-
trary the practice OF many of the largest systems
Of the east; and apparently it was unwarranted
either in justice expediency.
The purchaser - a mileage book pays for his
transportation in advance. True, he receives re-
duetion in rates but it is equally that the rail-
road has the of his money for a considerable
time before he is given the Of service for
which he has paid
To the travelling man, the chief advantage of
mileage book Is should be- that il enables him to
make speedy connections. But under the arbitrary
rule established by the roads this advantage
strOyed- The traveller is required to exchange his
mileage for ticket before he can get value for his
money; and should he not have time TO do this and
offer bis mileage aboard the train he would either
have TO pay cash fare be put on.
The act OF the Legislature in effect abolishes this
useless rule II is regretable that the roads did
voluntarily coneede the travelling and the trav
cling public their due but, since they perslstenly
refused to do So the action of the General Assembly
is timely and justified.

ment a hobo who had stolen about
$18 worth of brass Rabbits from
freight cars in the Northern Pacific
yards, was caught. The thief con-
fessed to the deed, but said that he
had been merely an accomplice of two
other men.
One of the proprietors of the Bis

some men had come over to the foun'
dry and attempted to sell brass bah
bits that were stenciled with the
name of the N. P. railway. The foun-

of the men who had attempted to sell
the brass, and stated that he had kept
the metal at the foundry telling the
men to come back for their pay lat

ter five hours landed his man near
the circus grounds. The thief con-
