HAS HAD PROSPEROUS YEAR
THIRD DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL
SCHOOL AT AMERICUS.
Spring Term viii Open January 9TH,
With Prospects for One of the
Best Sessions in It's History.

By September 10th every place in
the dormitories of the Third district
Agricultural and Mechanical School
had been taken. Many applicants
had to be turned away. Of those
entering at the opening Of the fall
term SO per cent remained until the
close of the term. There will be a
few vacant places on January 9Th.
These places will be assigned in the
order in which the applications are
received until all places have been
taken.
The tuition is free; board $500
per month. The $500 charge repre-
sents little over half the cost, the
farm and dairy furnishing large
quantities of supplies. From 200 to
$50 pounds of pork or beef are turn
ed into the dormitories each week,
for which no charges are made
against the dormitory fund.
Every member of the graduating
class of 1913 is holding a remunera-
tive and responsible position. The
shop course and the equipment are
not excelled by that of any other in
stitution outside of the largest cities
of the South. There is no drudgery
connected with any part of the work.
There are as good opportunities Of
fered here for girls as in any other
institution in the state. Girls re-
ceive special and individual instruc-
ton in domestic science and art.
They occupy as pretty home as the
state offers in any of her other
schools.

IS THE IDOL OF THE MASSES
Prominent Citizens of Atlanta Pay
Fine Tribute to Mayor Woodward.
Gave Him Handsome Watch.

ATLANTA.-Rather a fine tribute
was paid here to the affectionate es-
TEEN and belief in the sterling integ-
rity of Mayor Woodward when
handsome gold watch was presented
to him on Christmas eve, the gift of
a large number of friends and ad-
mirers.
The presentation speech was made
by Captain English, who said that he
and the mayor had been closely assO-
ciated in Atlanta affairs ever since
the sixties, and while they had often
differed on public matters that he
never once doubted the honesty and
high character of Mayor Jim.
1t is peculiar in what esteem this
grim old man is held by thousands of
people here. By cultured standards
he might be called crude and even
uncouth, but there is a quality of
sterling honesty, straightforward
ness and blunt directnesS that ap-
peals to many. He is a fighter for
fair and never gives or asks quarter
in a political skirmish.
He will undoubtedly be a candi-
date for reelection. And it is equal
ly certain that any opponent will
have a hard job defeating him. He
is the idol of the masses.

WHAT WILL THE YEAR 1914 BRING?

first time to take part in the cleo
tions.
What is perhaps the most remark
able prophecy ever made by Nine. de
Thebes or by any other seeress is the
forecast of the 1912 presidential cleo
ton in the United States, which was
given out by the famous French seer
ess in December, 1910, almost two
years before the election and at a
time when there was every reason to
believe that the outcome which she
predicted was an impossibility. Nine.
de Thebes said:
America is undergoing political
evolution. You will have great ex-
citement, unrest and disturbance over
YOUR presidential election two years
hence. Much of this will center about
Mr.. Roosevelt, who is certainly one
of the greatest men in America from
purely governmental point of view;
but he has one great fault-ambi-
ton. He has a wonderful brain; his
ambitious desire for power is NAL
adv of that brain.
1T is his ambition which will de-
stroy him. He will not again be
chosen president. Mr.. Taft will not
be president again. He is an honest
man, but he has been too calm, too
mild. Such is not the man Ameri-
cans want. Mr.. Roosevelt, when he
worked to place Mr.. Taft in the pres
idency, did so because he knew that,
with Mr.. Taft in power, he, Mr..
Roosevelt, would not be oyershad-
owed"

MANY FARM DEMONSTRATORS
INTEREST IN WORK HAS GROWN
RAPIDLY PAST FEW YEARS.
Seventy-Five Counties, Mostly in
South Georgia, Will Be Served.

Great interest is being manifested
in farm demonstration work
throughout Georgia. More counties
will have demonstration agents at
work during 1914 than ever before.
In all about Is counties will be
served.
The farm demonstration agent not
only carries on demonstrations with
farmers in the introduction of newer
and better methods of farming, but
assists in organizing and maintaining
corn clubs, girls clubs, pig clubs
and crop rotation clubs.

KANSAS POTATO KING NEGRO
GROWS 400 BUSHELS PER ACRE
ON MORE THAN 300 ACRES.
Went to Kaw Valley and Rented Six
Acres of Land, and Now Lives in
Twenty-Five Room Dwelling.

In the Interesting People" de-
partment of the January American
Magazine appears picture and
sketch of j. G. Groves, a negro farm
er who is known as the potato king
of Kansas. He lives in a twenty-five
room house with all the conveniences
of modern city dwelling. Fifty-five
thousand bushels was the output of
his farm last year Scientific farm
ing did it. Following is an extract
from the article:
Like many another industrial
monarch of the day the breath that
made Groves king was long one
thirty years long. Years of intelli-
gent, well-directed toll they were,
too, for since the very first day, way
back in 1882, when he came to the
Kaw valley with only a few dollars,
rented six acres and started on his
famous spudotic career, Groves has
been a faithful follower after scien-
tific ways. There isn't much doubt
that this is the reason he is king
And in the Kaw valley of Kansas,
where farmers are devoting their
lives to potato growing, it means
something to be a champion.
ITO tell in a paragraph how Groves
makes an acre yield 396 bushels of
potatoes in one crop it might be put
this way, using the words of the
champion himself:
Prepare the ground thoroughly;
learn to know good seed, then plant
only that kind; cut the seed by hand,
not by machinery; a machine cannot
properly divide the eyes of potato;
plant in rows twenty-seyen to thirty
inches apart and ten to twelve inches
in the row-by close planting we get
$4,000 hills to the acre, while scanty
planting allows only about $4,000
hills; cultivate frequently to conserve
the moisture; stir the subsoil once a
year by deep plowingj and spray
when bugs or blight come.
Even though Groves has intensi-
fed the production of his land to the
high point of nearly 400 bushels an
acre he still believes his fields have
not given their maximum Yields,
"The Groves domain consists of
500 acres in alI-32O acres of which
are devoted to potato growing. Fruit,
feed crops and truck are produced on
the remaining $50 acres, which is
! less fertile upland. The valley land
probably is worth $500 an acre, while
the upland is valued at 800 an acre.
That makes the potato farm worth
about $115, 900"

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Represent-

herself as postmaster at Albany, Ca,

others, protested to Senator Smith
against the appointment. Both he
and Judge Park have had the mat
ter held up until there can be an in

Several men applied for the place,
and there seems to be a disposition
to criticise because the appointee is
a woman. Judge Park believes, how
every, that most of the opposition is
fostered by disappointed candidates.
