REAL GARDEN is NECESSITY
Demand for First-cIass Vegetables Is
Almost Everywhere dissatisfied
In Southern States. :.,.,

Almost. every farm has some sort of
garden, but the" great majority
have been regarded in a careless way
and given. but. little attention, and as
a consequence have never yielded
anything to- compare with a. well
made garden. The. trucking and mar
ket garden industry, while it has been
a great, thing in, some sections, it as
yet poorly developed in most of the
south, although the demand for firstl
class vegetables is almost everywhere
dissatisfied.

the possibilities of home gardening

life, and. the profitss to be made from

Serum Price Lowered

Athens, Oct. 30.-The price of
hog cholera preventive serum
has been reduced Is per cent.
This announcement is made by
President Soule of the State Col
lege of Agriculture, where it is
manufactured for the state and
is distributed to the farmers of
the state at cost, through the of
fee of State Veterinarian Balm
sen, at Atlanta. The reduction
is from 2 C, cs to l 1-2 c. cs.
Pigs weighing from Is to 50
pounds can now be treated at a
cost of from Is to 20 cents; those
weighing from so to 100 pounds,
from 80 to 45 cents; from 100 to
200 pounds, As to rs cents.
More than $50, 900 cubic cent?
meters have been MANUFACTURED
and sent out from the college to
the Office of the state veterinari-
an this year, a quantity sufficient
to inoculate 10000 hogs weigh
ing so pounds each. Results
from last years inoculations
showed that 81 per cent of hog S
treated where cholera had already
appeared in the herds, were say.
ed from the disease.
1t is stated that the trusteesof
the college have authorized the
lower price for the serum to hold
as long as the demand makes it
possible to manufacture it at
present cost.

SHARING WITH HIRED HELP
Farmer Would Find it Profitable to Re.
ward Generously Results Of Little
Cooperation.

One Of the evolutions in modern
business methods is the installation of
the so-called profit-sharing plan of dis
tributing share OF the profits of a
business among the employees who
have helped to make those profits A
large number of the largest business
institutions in the country have in
augurated this highly commendable
plan Of giving the laborer his due re-
ward for faithful service. The bust
ness man reaps his reward by being
able to secure more efficient and con-
sc1entious service from employees. The
scheme simply injects a little person
altty and human sentiment into sordid
business affairs and makes man a
little less of machine.
The suggestion has been made that
the profit-sharing idea might profit
| ably be extended to the farm and this
appears to us to be a good suggestion,
says the FaEm and Home. For in.
stance, If your hired man gives to you
unusually good service and is willing
to do more than the fair thing by you,
why can you not stimulate this spirit
by promising in advance a cash bonus
or share of the proceeds of the crop
in return for this aid? Extend this
plan to the boys. Would it not pay
you to reward generously the results
OF aslittle cooperation? Set reason
able mark for the yield of your corn
| held or the output of the dairy barn
TO the boy or man who can increase
the average, offer a share of such in
crease. This is only one of many
ways in which you can apply this
protit-sharing idea. If you keep books,
and you should do this, it is easy to
figure out such a scheme.
The farmer is a capitalist and a
business man in a certain sense. The
soil is his capital. He. accumulated
this capital partly by hard work and
partly because Providence permitted
him to live in a country and in day
when he could by thrift acquire such
| capital. But the farmer owes a GER
tain debt to his co-laborers whose
only capital is labor. Give these CO.
| laborers square deal. The profit
sharing plan affords this opportunity
and 1t costs nothing because it gives
you greater efficiency. Give the good
wife, the boys and girls, and the hired
! man, all of whom help you to make a
success of farming, their share of the
| results of their labor.

Cooperative Laws

In all but two or three states of the
union cooperative organizations which
want to be truly cooperative must do
it by circumventing the law. This is
because the corporation laws in most
states do not recognize cooperative
companies, and the lawmakers do not
realize the need of special laws
adapted especially to such organiza-
tons. Special incorporation laws for
cooperative companies, similar to
those OF Wisconsin, would do much to
encourage this form of organization
among farmers.

FARMERS LACK IN CAUTION
Ordinary, Everyday Word, but One
.Frausht With Deep and Far
Reaching Importance.
To Officials and Members OF tn

To Officials and Members OF the
Un.on:
Caution. Just an ordinary, eve,v
day word, but one fraught with deep
and far-reaching Importance.
1t is the one thing farmers lack
above all other qualities Caution they
have In plenty in certain directions,
but usually not in the direction it
should be applied.
They are over-cautious about hon
estly accepting plans and organiza-
tions within their own ranks, calling
for cooperation, mutual aid and self
sacrifices. l know, of course, 1t is
due in measure to the fact that his
bump of caution has become abnorm-
ally developed.
But, on the other hand, the wordy.
windy, promising politician seems
able to wipe out this bump Of eau
ton every election day. Fooled time
and time again by broad promises
before the election. only to be forgot
ten and ignored after the election,
yet the farmers caution bump fails
IL
selfish politician comes forward again
and with the same old empty prom
ises arouses his enthusiasm to high
pitch, to such a high pitch that he
throws caution, the absolute knowI-
edge that he is dealing with rascal,
to the winds and votes once more for
the idle promiser.
aAn
to accept and take hold of move
Tlerts within their own ranks for
self-advancement, because they have
been fooled in the past. Why the
same theory don't work with them
as regards this scheming politician
is something too profound for my I'M
raveling. But the truth of it is too
we'll known for argument.
That old designing, crafty politician
is mighty humble, mighty cordial,
eager to promise anything asked when
before you seeking your vote. But
just see him in Washington, as
have. There he laughs at your gull
Eilty; sneers at your confidence in his
premises; openly flaunts you and your
cause
You are waking up a bit along that
line, I'll confess, but only after con-
slant hammering on you. Some men
who have stood in places of power for
years and sneered at you and your
needs have felt your righteous wrath
and gone into the oblivion they have
long merited.
But others remain. Many Of them
are going to come as humble suppl
cants for your suffrage, next year.
They wear the outward garb and sem
hlance of real and true friends to you
and your cause They are oily, shrewd,
plausible. Every artif1ce of the de-
signing self-seeker will be. used on
you again.
Will you stand for him? Will you
let that sort fool you yet again., Oh
my credulous brother, wake up, wake,
up! Put on your thinking cap, read
study the public career. of the man
seeking your franchise, Know, don't
guess, that he is your real friend and
tfat he will do all in his power hon
estly to make good on his promises
to you,
Do this and yod will get t tiGe4f friends

haven't had some one to press your

have had. va =: {!T,

Selecting Good Layers.

At the Maine Experiment station
they select the good layers by pick
ing up the pullets which soonest show
red combs and begin to sing, as pull
lets do when getting ready to lay, and
putting them in flock by themselves.
BY picking out these early layers
they got flock which averaged $50
eggs during their first laying year
and flock of that kind is good
enough for anyone.

Wilfred Jessup appeared before the
board to advise it in the matter of
charging the expense of paving Neff
street with brick to the Miller
Brothers Hardware and the J. H.
Menke Coal COMPANY He stated that
1t is unfair to make these companies
pay the cost as all the hauling to the
Pennsylvania freight station from fac
tories and stores east of Seventh
street is done over Neff street. He
believes that the P. c. G.. and ST. L.
railroad should pay for part of the
paving cost. The local officials will
be called before the board to discuss
the matter soon.
The bonds furnished by the Sisk,
Sprinkle and Level contracting COM
pany for the paving of Eighth street

The Starr Piano officials refused to
meet with the officials from the c.
and o. railroad today at the board of
works to settle the matter of placing
a switch extension from the Starr
Piano switch to the municipal light
plant. The members of the board have
now given up the idea of having the
switch and have ordered City Attorney
Bond to write to the railroad officials,
requesting that the light plant coal
switch, which is located about 100
feet above the plant on a trestle, be
repaired and rendered safe enough for
switching part of the heavy machinery
which will come over the G. and o.
Two months ago, the members of the
board felt convinced that the extension
would be placed by the G. and o. rail
road and accordingly placed condi-
tions of shipping, in the advertise
ments for bids on the light plant
equipment which will cause a loss to
the light plant of several hundreds of
dollars If the switch is not put in.
The extension which is desired by
the board is located in the river bot
tom and would run along the base of
the hill to the light plant where the
equipment could be unloaded at the
place where 1t would be set up. AS it
would be necessary to run the cars ov-
er the Starr Piano switch, the Off
cials refused to allow the extension
unless the railroad put in another
switch for the company's cars. This
