The Fulton County Grand Jury re-

A long debate also arose over
the contention of the defense
that the judge erred in letting
in the testimony of Harlee
Branch, newspaper man, who
made an estimate of the time
that it required Jim Conley to
re-enact in the factory the part
he asserted he had in the Phagan
tragedy.
Objection TO Testimony.
The objection to this testimony was
on the ground that 1t was a pure con-
clusion; that It was impossible to
take a witness to the factory and
have him indicate accurately how
long It required for him to do ono
thing or another; that Branch did not
pretend to have timed the perform
ance, and that his testimony would
not have been admissible even IL he
had; that Conley's performance at the
factory was not the same as he de-
scribed 1t on the stand at the triall
that the negro described it entirely
differently on the stand, at least, diff
ferently in many particulars; that 10
could not help the jury for Conley to
illustrate his last affidavit when he
said on the stand that much of 1t was
lie and didn't happen at all, and
that this evidence was OF another
transaction and not binding on the |
defendant. The reason was approved
by Judge Roam.

be allowed to stand as a reason to be

BENEFITS OF COOPERATION
Intelligent Understanding Of Funda-
mental Principles Of Scientific Az
riculture 10 Needed.
CBy r. G. wEATHERsToNE.)

Not long ago q prominent educator
delivered an address in Boston In
which he advocated the importance of
elementary training in education.
Give one familiarity with funda-
mental principles" he asserted. and
the rest is easy; thoroughly train
the young in the elementary princi-
pies and they are able almost to
take care of themselves when as
far along in their studies as going TO
| college"
There is a great deal of trurs in
what the speaker had to say, and the
| principle involved is one which should
| be given due recognition in the
field of agricultural education. as
we'll as anywhere else. An in
telligent understanding of the fun
damental principles OF scientific agri-
culture is of the greatest value with
the farmer.
Children are always ready and will
ing to learn, but not so often their
elders, and therein lies one of the
chief stumbling blocks in the way OF
assisting and enlightening the farmer.
Only think of having the opportunity
of obtaining the most valuable In
formation possible for the best inter
ests of ones business or occupa,
ton, and yet refusing or neglect,
ing to avail ones self Of it. Yet
such is frequently the course of the
farmer.
Who is there who cannot recall
from his own experience one or more
farmers who are accustomed to re
gard with Indifference and even skep
teal contempt the efforts Of the agri
cultural schools and colleges to of
fer his useful and helpful suggestions
How such scott at their experiment:
and trial tests, and all the Other
methods by which they arrive at theil
results
What we want is cooperation be
tween farmers and scientists, not dis
trust and indifference. Why, in thu
field of the chemistry of soils and fer
tilizers alone, If the agriculturist
could be induced to accept the teach

into practical use, it would mean

/ What food is this or that soil most il
need of? If the farmer would sc
himself to the task OF answering thi
one question, with all the help whic
he could obtain from every pc:
sible source, the annual yield @
his land could be enormously il
creased.
Every day the agricultural school
are spending money which in realit
is much needed in other ways, in tn
endeavor to reach the farmer an
bring him to make use Of the advaI
tages they afford. They are full
alive to the fact that they exist in
large measure for the benefit and el
couragement of the farmers in the
vicinity. What possible reason ca
there be why their valuable Office

HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA.
