many cases lifetime in her work
shop'-the kitchen-and the family
rooms, she is not, rs a rule, capable
of planning a house in the highest de-
gree serviceable and comfortable
without assistance. Her help, how
ever. is essential to the farm architect
as the result of his plans most vitality
concern her. One of the most i'm
portant details regarding the average
be inexpensive The average net an
nual income of the farmer today, after
deducting five per centinterest on his
investment, is less than $500. This
does not mean that the house may not
be attractive. They may, If intelll-
gently planted, witlf~the help OF vines,
shurbs and trees, become the prettiest
spots in the landscape and more beau
tiful and inexpensive than the crowded
city houses. The tenant house is grow
ing in importance. The number OF
rented farms increased by more than
324, 900 during the last decade. Today
little more than half the farms in this
country are operated by owners.
Two Great Factors.
1.-The possible economy in household
labor and the conservation of strength
of the housewife are two important
factors to be considered in the con-
struction of the farmhouse. Pleasant
and comfortable farm homes tend to
hold families together; but cherries,
unattractive and unsanitary houses
are what is driving girls and boys to
the cities Investigations of prisons,
insane asylums, and corrective lnstl-
buttons seem to prove that the sins
which account for the existence OF
these institutions are often bred In
and unpleasant farm
homes. Therefore this social aspect OF
he problem is considerable.
1.-The office of the farm management
bureau has now undertaken to inves-
.igate and solve the problem OF MAX
ng the farm home better. Already it |
las learned that certain features are |
overlooked in providing economical
for the household, when |
hey might just as easily be provided |

Rochester, N. Y, July 2S.-In order
to save the left leg of Norman Van
Voorhis, prominent western New York
horseman and polo player, both of
whose legs were broken few weeks

means of a steel plate inches long, a
quarter-inch thick and one-half inch
wide. The plate was screwed to the

WILL MAKE WEBB
LAW EFFECTIVE

Atlanta, Ca, July 2S.-Whether whis-
key shipments shall be barred from
Georgia under the Webb act, which
makes it illegal for shipment from a
wet state into dry one, will be de-
termined this week by the house Of
representatives, is indicated by it's
resolution Of yesterday afternoon. This
directed to committee on temperance
to report by next Friday on the house
bill to make the Webb law effective in
Georgia.
The Webb law, which is left to the
states to ratify, does not bar shipments
of three gallons or less, but does SER
iously interfere with blind tigers who
get their liquor by wholesale.
The house got down to work an
hour earlier today, meeting at 9
o'clock, and will continue this all SEES
sion. 1t is hoped that the extra hour
will do away with the usual last min
ute rush at the close of the session
when many bills are "railroaded"
through.
Representative Conner, of Spalding
county, offered a bill to prohibit tip
ping in hotels, railroad, trains and
cafes, but said nothing about manicure
girls.
The senate began today a renewal
of the debate on the bill to amend the
present judicial system, which occu-
pied most of yesterdays session with
out result.

STATE PRISONERS
HAVE LIBRARY

Atlanta, Ga, July 2S.-The trend of
the times, which has changed a prison
from a dungeon with darkness and
chains to a reformatory where sinners
must pay the penalty and yet have
opportunity to improve themselves, is
being illustrated in the new library
opened at the state farm by the Geor-
gia prison commission.
The prison commission has installed
at the farm in Milledgeville library
with a number of books, and has inyit-
ed kindly people Of the state to give
more books toward equipping it. 1t is
but one of the steps being taken for
the betterment of prison conditions.
The present commissioners are by
no means mawkish, fanatical reform
ers" who thing a convict should be
swaddled in eiderdown expiration, but
they believe at the same time that
cruelty and inhuman punishment are
out of place and that good behavior
should be rewarded by. certain simple
comforts.
Georgians who are familiar with the
work of the commission are gratifed
that its personnel is not likely to be
changed this year. Only one members
term expires, that of E. L. Rainey, and
lit seems assured that he will be elect
ed without opposition.

CHICAGO POOR WILL ENJOY
GEORGIA WATERMEL0NS


Atlanta, July 2S.-About Thursday
next two thousand families of the poor
of Chicago will be given a treat in
the shape of present to each of a
real Georgia watermelon. The melons
will come direct from the farm in
Georgia in a through car and will be
distributed to those who will most
enjoy the luscious juiciness of the
Georgia melon. The car was shipped
Saturday and should reach Chicago
Wednesday.
This unique idea of sending car
load of watermelons direct from the
field to the poor of Chicago was orig
inal with the management of the Geor-
gia and Florida Farms Company, with
headquarters in Atlanta. This CON-
pany owns large tracts of lands in
South Georgia and operates Demon
stration Farm at West Green, in Cof-
fee county, for the purpose of show
ing the productiveness of the soil to
prospective settlers and of encourag-
ing the resident farmers to diversity
crops and adopt intensive methods
of farming. The company is giving the
melons, and the Georgia and Florida
Railway, ON the lines of which the
farm is located, and the Southern
Railway and Monon Route have agreed
to haul the car to Chicago free of
charge. The same people are arrang-
ing to ship several more carloads of
watermelons to other Northern cities
for free distribution to the poor.
The shipment is being made to the
Polish National Alliance, an organiza-
ton that will see that the distribution
is made where it will be of most ben
eft to those who seldom enjoy such
a treat.
On each melon will be pasted a
printed label reading: This melon is
a second, or Gull, and not appropri-
ate for the market. 1t comes from
West Green in South Georgia. The
transportation was given by the fol-
lowing railroads: Georgia & Florida
Railway, Southern Railway, Monon
Route The melon is presented to you
by the Georgia and Florida Farms Co.,
Hurt Building, Atlanta, Ga. Distrib-
uted by the Polish National Alliance"
The words second" and "cull" do
not mean that the melons are spoiled
or defective in any way, but merely in
dictate that they are under the weight
limit fixed by the universal market
custom, which is that no melon under
twenty pounds weight shall be ship
ped to market. At the same time the
unusual character of the shipment will
attract attention to the productiveness
of Georgia farms, and it is not unlike
ly that the publicity that such a
unique gift will receive in Georgia will
cause many other shippers to send
similar shipments of farm products, al
times when the market has slumped,
or toward the close of the seasons, to
the poor in the congested portions OF
the large cities of the North.
Such shipments could be made at
the close of the market seasons with
great benefit to the recipients and lit
tie cost to the shippers. At the end
of the peach season in Georgia, thous-
ands of bushels of peaches are allow
ed to go to waste when they might
well be made to brighten and encour-
age the poor of the great cities.
