Monks, guided by the barkings

had fallen during an Alpine climb.
Dawson had attempted to cross
a pass without a guide and fell in

except from a badly sprained an

JUDGE;
APPLY To STATE
Successor to C. J. WeIborn in
left Davis County Seems
Hard to Find.

Occasionally. a political job in Geor-
.r;o cocks the man, and every once in
s,t,iIo Il has hard time finding him.
carl Welborn resigned the county
4,,dgasbip of Jeff Davis Tuesday, to
take effct Immediately. and now the eX-
o.,,tive department is on hunt-not
sill hunt, moreover-for Welborn's
successor.
This judicial job pays the handsome
sum of SIS per month. To some that
NAV seem rather poor pay. But, then
the Job is long on dignity. 1t carries
with it. for instance, the ancient and
honorable distinctive title of Judge"
ANY man who gets this place and
holds if even month or so, will be a
Judge" the balance of his natural
life and entitled to have that fact noted
ON his tombstone when he dies.
There are several well known lawyers
in Jeff Davis county, to be sure, but
they. one and ALL show disposition TO
sidasten this assignment. 1t is not nee
osearv that the holder Of this judgeship
he a LAWYER. but the laymen of JEFF
Da,-ie appear equally as shy of the place
as the lawyers.
Wherefore. the executive department
of Georgia is in quite state or MIND
about the situation. If there were any
way to make Judge Welborn recall his
resignation, the governor doubtless
would do it. even if he had to call out
the militia to put it over.
But Welborn says he is coming to
Atlanta to practice law. and, besides, he
wouldn't have that $25 judgeship any
longer even if he wasn't coming to At
lanta.
ANYBODY wanting a nice, dignif1ed
elevated job as judge, without much
pay attaching, might turn a neat little
trick by communicating at once with
the governor or his private secretary.
The job is seeking the man, all right
sitting up nights, indeed, trying to
find him.

PUTTING Trees to Bed,

An interesting method of protecting
peach trees from frost during the win
ter has been practiced for several
years at the agricultural experiment
station at Canyon, Colo. Early in No
vember the earth is removed from a,
circle about four feet in diameter
round each tree, and water is turned in
to saturate the soil. When the ground
has become soft the tree is worked
back and forth to loosen the roots and
is then pushed over on its side. The
branches are brought together and
fastened with cord, and burlap COW
cred with earth is put over them.
Thus the trees lie snug until spring,
when the covering is gradually loos-
ened and finally removed, and they are
raised and propped up.-Rocky Noun
