Commissioner of Agriculture James
D. Price has sounded a warning, as
well as word Of announcement, &c
the farmers of Georgia, and pleads
with them TO determine next year
upon more general diversi6cation OF
their croi 8.
Tie Commissioner sees prosperous
times ahead. bat he thinks intelligent
and conservative farming is more
surely indicated now than ever before
for the future.
He says:
In my opinion. Georgia never has
had more golden opportunity to
start d thorough and complete deNei-
opment of her agricultural resources.
In order for this to be done how
ever. the merchants, the bankers, the
Warehousemen and the farmers must
work together.
The years 1911 and 1912 We're both
trying on the farmers and allied bust
ness interests, and unless We are
careful now We viii likely have SINH
lar conditions the next two years.
Warning of 1910.
The year 1910 was one Of pros
perity. similar to this year In the
fan money was plentiful and the out
look bright for good times and pros
perity. The farmer expanded by plan
ming his crop for all cotton.
In the spring Of 1911 credit was
cheap and the farmer continued to
expand, for the merchant, the banker
and the warehouseman were lavish
with their credit. The result was that
Georgia raised the biggest crop she
ever had made, and the farmers were
extravagant in making it The yield
was large and the cost of making it SO
great that the low prices made the

like to marry, but they have faced
the fact that it takes bread and
butter as well as sentiment to keep

And the same theory holds good

money returned much less than was
necessary 10 pay the expenses, with
the result that the merchant, the
banker. and the Warchouseman had
TO carry over many notes and ac-
counts.
The year 1912 caught the farmer
With an insufficient supply Of feed
stuff and a good many obligations. He
was not in d position to plant food
crops, for it seemed to him that it
was necessary to plant cotton in or
DER to pay running expenses and &C
cumulated debts.
AT harvest time the cotton crop
was both short and cheap, and we
know what the depressed condition
was all over Georgia last fall. At the
start Of this year credit was tight
the seasons were unfavorabIe and
economy was the eternal watChwOrd
The consequence now is that Georgia
is N better shape, generally, than II
has been since the fall Of 1910.
Plant Small Acreage.
IF the farmers of Georgia this fall
will plan their crops for 1914 to in
cIude small grain, hay, corn, hogs,
some cattle and a small acreage in
cotton, and if they viii practice the
most rigid economy this fall in buy
ing for cash and next spring buying
on credit, the result next year will be
continued prosperity. On the other
hand, if the farmers of Georgia are
extravagant in the expenditure Of the
money they are receiving for their
cotton and cotton seed, and if they
become infatuated with the desire to
expand and raise much more cotton
next year, if business interests are
lax with credit. the results next year
will be disastrous"

large a part that, before means
had been invented for readily OBJ

the air, little advance could be

twenty years that we have found
out that the atmosphere contains,
in addition to oxygen, nitrogen,
carbonic acid, ammonia ana water

in small quantities, but they eN-

Helium appears to possess val

be the one of these rare atmos-

greatest utility. 1t is employed to
produce various kinds of artificial

Also the standard Of living has
