THE SKUNK COMES INTO HIS OWN

, From the Wall Street Journal.
| In rural sections there is no animal
| that has always been more heartily
! despised than the skunk. Yet it is
/ being discovered that he has an eco
nomic value so great that it must ul-
timately overweight every antipathy
against him.
The department of agriculture says
the common white grub costs the
farmers of the country $12, 100000 a
year. Jimmy Skunk thinks these
grubs a delicious mOrsel and hunts
them industriously. Also the beetle
of which the grub is the larva is to
him a bonnie bouche and he always
has room for one more. AS near as
can be approXimated rodents and in
sects cost the country 81, 100000 a
year. Jimmy" hunts meadow mice,
grasshoppers, beetles and earth
worms, all of which are crop destroy
ers. His otherwise unsavory record
should be forgiven, even if it cannot
be forgotten, on account of his as
sistance in saving the crops.
But this is not all. Jimmy wears
a beautiful black coat Dame Fash
ion has seen and admired it, but he
is of too lowly origin to be admitted
to polite circles. However, other
people can have pedigrees, ancestors,
and coats of arms manufactured for
them, so why not he? Trade has al
ready arranged that trifiing matter,
and under the name of black mar
ten" and Alaskan sable" he is taken
into good society. The demand for
this heavy, fine texture fur is now
running ahead of the supply and, as
the animals can be raised as easily
as house cats, here is new branch
of livestock farming that is one of the
probabilities Of the near future.
In the past men have despised him,
but, all things considered, it seems
a mistake even to kick a skunk.

Millions Wasted on Roads,

Mr.. James w. Osborne, special
counsel to investigate the expendi-
lures on roads in the state of New
York, says that of the fifty millions
of dollars spent on the highways dur
ing the past few years a large part OF
it has been wasted. Mr. Logan Wal
Ter Page, in charge of the highway
bureau of the government at Wash
ingtOn, is authority for the statement
that eighty per cent of the money
spent in America on roads during the
year 1912 was wasted.
According to Farm and Fireside, a
farm journal published at Spring
field, Ohio, the good roads movement
has resulted in the expenditure of a
greater amount of money on roads
in the last year than ever before. In
1904 the total sum expended on pub
lie roads in the United States was
about $S0,OOO,OO0. In 1913 it was
more than $16O,OOO,0O0.
If Messrs. Osborne and Page are
correct in their estimates OF the
amount of this money that is wasted
it is a pitiable record for our road
builders. Much of the waste is be-
cause so little of the work being done
is of permanent character. 1t is bet
ter TO incur initial high cost anc
build roads that viii last. The an
clients found that out, and roads tina
the Romans built two thousand year
ago are still in use, although many o
their palaces and temples are L
ruins.
In Georgia many thousands OF Col
lars are being spent in highway build
ing every year, but little of the wor
is permanent or durable, and tn
roads have either to be repaired O
rebuilt at short intervals at great e2
pense- almost as great as the orll
inal cost Of construction.
The only economical way to bull
roads is to have the work planne
and supervised by competent road Ell
gineers and then made of materia
that are durable.

STUDYING SOUTH GEORGIA SOIL
From the Savannah News.

From the Savannah News.
The State College of Agriculture
has decided to establish in South
Georgia two sub-statiOns for the Spe-
cial purpose of making tests and eX-
Deriments in grain culture, the selec-
ton of the varieties Of grain best
adapted to the needs and the soil
and climate of this section OF the
state. That is a wise decision. Too
much cannot be known about the
soil and the crops it is best adapted
to. The sub-stations should supple
ment the work of the farm demon
strators who are very numerous in
South Georgia this year, and should
go far towards helping farmers TO
avoid making serious mistakes as
they turn much of their land from
cotton to other crops.
One of the sub-statiOns is to be IN
Turner county and the other at quit
man. Land has already been proVld-
ed for the tests, which will be under
direction of the college and its extern
sion workers. There is not apparent
any good reason why Georgia should
not cultivate grain crops on much
greater scale Many farmers have
had success with wheat, oats and
other cereals and reports from
number of counties indicate that the
harvest of those crops this year
should break all former records.
While more attention is being paid
to grain culture farmers should not
lose sight of the value OF cattle on
the farm. They can be fed on the
farms products and besides being
profitable furnish the best and cheap
est fertilizer. Keeping that in mind
farmers should endeavor to obtain
all possible good from the sub-sta-
lions in Brooks and Turner counties.
South Georgia has been under dis
advantage for many years because SO
much of the agricultural activity OF
state institutions was in the northern
part of the state, and for that reason
as we'll as for others, the establish
ment of an chronological station at
brownsville recently and of the grain
culture sub-stations is gratifying 10
people of the Southern part.

WHY FARMERS SHOULD
ADVERTISE IN NEWSPAPERS

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper
published at Springfield, Ohio, j. NJ.
TAYLOR writes a valuable and inter-
esting article telling farmers how TO
get to the market with their goods.
Mr.. Taylor goes on, as follows, TO
show how farmers can use the news
papers:
1.-The cities are full of people VINO
want to buy their goods direct, the
country is full of farmers who would
gladly sell direct for the sake OF the
additional profits to be gained by
that mode of selling. All that re-
mains is for them to get together:
There is no need OF an extensive
advertising campaign. All that Is
necessary is a small advertisement IN
the newspapers of the nearest city.
And in writing the ad the farmer
should not be bashful about having
his name easily seen. Let him ad-
vertise Smiths potatoes, or smith 5
cabbages or whatever Smith has TO
sell. Do it in a manner that VIII
leave the impression that Smith IS
proud of his cabbages, that ne
knows them to be up to the stand
ard and that he personally stands
back of them. People will more
readily buy Of a man when he stamps
his name on his goods in manner
which shows that he is not afraid to
be known as their sponsor Further
more. it is good business, for if peo-
pie buy Smiths cabbages this year
and find them good they will clamor
for Smiths cabbages next year ana
he satisfied with no others.

The Cotton Futures Bill.

The bill recently passed by the
senate to regulate the trading in cot
ton futures is not nearly as drastic
as most of the measures that had
been previously proposed, and the re-
strictions are by no means prohlb-
tive.
Under it, if it becomes law as II
probably will, the grades OF cotton
must correspond to the standards
adopted by the department of agrl-
culture, which is long step toward
the desirable end of uniformity OF
classification.
Furthermore, price differences be-
tween grades can be no longer arpl-
trarily fixed, as at present done by
the New York Cotton Exchange, but
must be conformed to differences act
ually obtaining in spot markets.
Senator Smith, Of South Carolina
is the author of the measure.

The spring crop of bandits seems
to be unusually large. The robbery

attempted bank robbery in Atlanta
were exceedingly bold, while the sue
cessful efforts of scattered bandits
to rob trains have been numerous.
The Savannah News thinks possibly
some members of the army of unem-
ployed, of which the country is now
hearing so much, have been rendered
desperate by their inability to find
work, and have turned road agents
in the hope of filling their pockets.
