Editor The Georgian:
A Baptist minister. the Rev.
Robert j. Huff, of College Park,
in a fit of Encouragement, at
tempts to take his own life and
almost succeeds. In coming back
to consciousness with a new lease
on life, he pleads in extenuation
of his act the adverse environ
ments extending over months and
years of his life. claiming that
the causes leading to the act
made the act justifiable and that
it would be forgiven by the AL
mighty. He also makes the claim
that man can commit suicide
and not be forever lost.
AS a minister of the gospel of
Jesus Christ, desiring to uphold
the truth, I wish to demur to both
these arguments, and try to pre-
sent the truth in different as
pect.
A sin was committed by his act
at self-destruction. Sin is par
donable only on conditions. He
took the poison and had he died
by his own act, there was no
chance to meet the conditions of
pardon for the act, but a lapse
into Inconsistencies The con-
ditions of pardon for sin are two:
repentance toward God and faith
in Jesus Christ He did not meet
these essential New Testament
conditions of pardon for sin, and
hence he would have been con-
demned for self-murder-a sin he
did not repent of and could not

Giovanni Battista Vico. the
son OF a poor bookseller OF Ma

early age he manifested the abil-
ity which usually belongs only to
men OF mature age, and while
still a young man he demon
strsted a profound acquaintance
with history, philosophy. science
and Jurisprudence.
Woo was the first to ask:
why have We a science of ma
ture. but no science of history ?"
and the Schema Nuova" was the
great mans answer to that all
important oues ion In the course
of his book he developed the idea
that man. as well as the material
world in the midst Of which ne
moves, is subject to Java law
de-reaching, immutable. I'm
compromising. by which all hu-
man actions arc governed. and in
the light of which the history OF
those actions must be studied and

Law Condoned Negligence.

In Kelsey VS.. Rebuzzini, in the SUI
preme court of errors of Connecticut.
it appeared that defendant, after no
tice that a division wire fence between
his lot and a lot where plaintiff pas
tured his cattle was broken, took no
steps to repair it and the following
day plaintiffs heifers passed through
the broken fence and reached a lot
lying south of both Of such lots and
there cropped grass which had been
poisoned in the mixing of a spray for
potato vines, in consequence of which
part OF them died. Defendant did not
know that the potatoes had been
sprayed, or that any poison had been
spilled on the grass and could not
have anticipated that some person
might have scattered poison about the
grass there. 1t was held, assuming de-
PENDANTS negligence, that it was not
the proximate cause of injury.

IMPROVING THE SOILS
ALFALFA IS GOOD DRouGHT-RE-
sIsTING CROP.
Good Forage Plant SO Universally
Needed in Southern States That
Glover Should Be Given
Thorough Test.

Why is Il alfalfa is not more uni
yersally sown than it is? | think 1t
is simply because, being more able
to resist drought than other clovers,
a great many people have jumped to
the conclusion that alfalfa will do
we'll only on what may be called
"semi-arid" land. But that is a mis-
take, says writer in Farm Progress.
Alfalfa has to have water as wei
as any other clover or forage crop,
but it does well on very dry soils
sometimes when other legumes and
most other grasses fail The reason
is not that 1t can get along without
moisture, but that by nature it can
do better in going down into the soil
after the moisture than any OF the
other clovers except. perhaps. sweet
clovers.
By the accumulation of the habit
Of going deep to get moisture 1t may
be proper to say, not that the plant
can thrive without moisture, but that
1t has acquired the nature and the
ability to send its roots down deeper
into the ground to get moisture than
any other clover.
But having developed this habit,
which is now fixed, not only Is 1t
forage plant that is the salvation OF
the semi-arid regions, but also one that
can resist the effect OF temporary
drought in humid regions. And since
damaging droughts are apt to occur
in any part of the country 1t should
be the rule on every farm where gen.
eral cropping is done to SOW some al
falfa and make a persistent and in
telligent effort to induce profitable
growth.
Alfalfa has been tested by quite a
number in many of the humid states
and been found by many to be salts
factory. l should say that where red
clover thrives alfalfa will also sue
coed IL the land is we'll drained And
another very important point Is that
the soil be not SO infested with weed
seed that when the time comes for
them to terminate and grow they will
come so thick and vigorous that they
will simply smother the alfalfa to
death. And in the category OF weeds
must be included grass, too.
In parts of the more northern states
it may be blue grass and in the South
Is likely to be Bermuda or Johnson
grass. No matter how suitable the
soil may be, for instance, in parts OF
the Mississippi bottoms in the south
ern states, If the land is infested with
Johnson grass or Bermuda grass the
alfalfa will never be able to do any
good. l think it is possible, however
for Melilotus Alba, mostly known as
sweet clover, to do very well in rich
river bottom soil, in spite Of those two
grasses. And since it is said that this
clover loses its acrid taste in the
South it may be found to take the
place of alfalfa to a large extent.
The Importance Of good forage
plant that is a soil improver is so uni
yersally needed in the South that this
clover should be given a very thor
ough trial. 1t may possibly settle
problem of great importance in that
section.
