Georgia who have been bowling SO
long for the privilege of aiding in
matters Of State?
Is it very good argument for
their alertness? Their lack Of prac-
teal ability to grasp the import of
the thing right before them never
was SO plainly shown, as when a
whole session of the legislature went
by, the open lobbying for the defeat
of the school book bill unchallenged
by single Woman's Club in the
State. and the bill defeated without
a protesting voice from a single
Womans Civic League.
Several interesting sessions of
these clubs could be founded this

results to the country children of the

Our people don't want charity, no

nor what it may bring They want a

will Georgia lead the States in il
literacy.
1t is doubtful if there will be- in
some years to come, a bill TIL at was
meant to benefit so many, that was
openly, brazenly and shamelcssly
beaten, with money only, as was the
bill which meant books, and an edU-
cation to many q poor little boy and
girl, who will have to go into the

looked first to their own bank ac-
count.

There are many good reasons for
the use OF concrete on the farm, The
destruction OF silos by heavy winds
has been source OF considerable loss
In the last few months The wooden
silo cannot in the nature OF things b.
as safe as that built with concrete.
Farmers are in sense compelled to
Investigate this subject.
Safety. economy and utility are the
prime considerations, and on all of
these points they are finding them
selves gamers from the use Of con.
crete in silo-construction.
1t will be claimed in truth that not
all wooden silos are blown down; but
so many OF them are thus destroyed
that farmers are put to great annoy
ance and loss. Concrete structures
are much safer, and in the long run
are more economical
The original cost is about the same
as for wood. II the farmer Is able to
do the work with his regular force.
When the durability and lessened
risks are considered, 1t is seen that the
concrete construction is economical Tn
almost all circumstances.
AS for the general utility, after the
construction is up, there Is no ospe'
cial difference. The concrete silo ia
sanitary, and preserves the fodder In
a satisfactory way, This fact mas

When manure is spread evenly ~ q

Personally, I have used a manure

in getting the manure upon the land

manure at his disposal,

is getting near when every farmer that

u REPARE to reckon with MORE
i when the matter of your Easter
bonnet comes up for consideration.
This handsome material has made
great success as a feature of spring
millinery. In big overlapping bows.
in standing rufies and plaitings, and
in the body of hats, moire ribbon is
one of the assured styles for the APP
preaching sspring.
Other ribbons and other kinds Of
silk are used as much but not flea

the new hats.
For early spring nothing could be
better than moire. It is elegance ex-
pressed in ribbon. The weave has
the appearance of being heavy, al
though it is not in reality heavy
weight, and lends itself to the stand
ing rufies and piaitings and the big.
vigorous bows which designers are
using with such good effect.

coronets are covered With MORE laid
