Georgia peach is a plan which lead
ing farmers and growers of this
state are seriously considering, fol-
loving successful application OF
electricity to fruit raising in other
parts Of the country. They are plan
ming to galvanize Miss Alberta.
Since X-ray gowns and split skirts
came into style, the Georgia Peach,
after a manner speaking, has been
shocking the people, but now the
people plan to turn the tables and
shock the peach.
But is real fruit they are talking
about. Raising vegetables, grains
and fruits by electricity is the latest
in scientific forming. It is declared
thai electrical current is turned into
the ground it makes things grow
faster and better. For instance in
the carly spring, when one wants to
force radishes and onions, the cur
rent is applied more frequently and
those who have tried it say you can
almost see things grow.
Now that the tower lines of the
Georgia Railway and Power COM
pany are carrying the current from
Tallulah into all parts Of the state,
including rural sections, Georgia
farmers will have practical oppor-
.tunity to avail themselves Of these
latest scientific discoveries.

A Friendly Little Talk to New
Exhibitors at Fairs.

So you are going to have an ex-
hibit at your fair? That is good.
It is a sign Of progress and ambi-
ton when farmer has the skill to
produce something on his farm
which is so much above average
quality that he thinks it is worth
while for him to take it out for
other farmers to look at. The man
who has calf or a colt or a pig or
a bushel of corn or a bale Of hay
good enough to go to the fair, has
accomplished at least one thing Of
which he is proud, and such accom-
plishment, you know, is one Of the
durable satisfactions' Of life.
Right here, however, is here you
may make big mistake. That calf
or that bushel of potatoes may APP
pear SO good to you that you will
feel it scarcely worth while to take
my special pains to fit them for ex-
libirion. Such a conclusion is all
wrong. You owe it to yourself and
to the public to put your exhibits
on the fair ground in the best pos
sible condition. The calf must be
we'll Aeshed--he need not be, extra
fat; his coat must be as sleek as
a seal, ? without speck Of dust Or
the slightest stain to mar it; his
horns must be rubbed smooth and
shiny; he must be taught to lead

aee strangers without fear,
He will not pass for his real worth
If he is dirty or if he goes pulling
and straddling away every time q
visitor approaches.
The potatoes, too, must be clean,
as nearly uniform in size and shape
as you can get them and well ar
ranged in neat vessel q an attrac-
tive heap.
SO with every other product. Hit
is worth showing at all, tits worth
taking a little trouble with.
And then when you have doue
your best, you may miss the prize.
Never forget that. The calf, in
stead Of taking the blue ribbon, as
you had counted on, may be classed

such a thing happens, don't get
mad" and abuse the fair or the
judges, or charge that you didn't
get fair treatment Instead, try to
find out why you didn't win. The
judges should be able to tell you.
In fact, we think no ribbon should
be tied, no prize awarded at a fair,
without full explanation from the
judges as to why such award was
made. We know that sometimes the
judging is done almost in secret,
and that the exhibitor may not
know when his entry is being passed
on. This is all wrong; but the time
to remind your fair officials OF the
fact is before the fair, not alter the
are made. The Progressive Farmer.

commissioners OF agriculture and l..
II. Worthy, an expert of the bureau
OF entomology OF the United States de-
partment OF agriculture, visited, a
short time ago, the area on the east
side OF the state infested with tho
browntail moth. Mr. Worthy reports
that he found the infestation OF the
moth quite general throughout the
area and mostly confined TO shade
and orchard trees and wild cherry
bushes along the walls In fields.
He judges from his observations
that there is but little danger Of the
browntail moth infesting our wood
lands to any great extent as apparent
ly the predominant growth is not sus-
ceptible 10 their feeding and webbing
habits. He also says II must be borne
in mind in suppresslng these Insects
that yearly invasion may be expect
ed owing TO their power OF fight and
that I'm his opinion the state would
not be justified in making campaign
