Books For Prisoners.

Moved by an appeal to the public by Mr..
J. 4. Smith, the warden of the Georgia state
prison near Milledgeville, the Savannah
Press is leading a movement for the contri-
button of books to the library at that insti-
tuition. 1t is a worthy and commendable
undertaking, as it is through the library
that mach good can be done toward max
ing better men and women of the several
hundred who are so unfortunate as to be
confined there. AS the Press says, there is
scarcely a man or woman in Georgia but
who can give at least one volume to Ii
brary of this character What is wanted
most is fiction. The library has about four
teen hundred volumes already, but they are
largely made up of standard works, ency-
Clopedias and such as that. The works of
Cooper, Irving, Dickens, Shakespeare, Scott,
Lytton and Balsac are on hand. Those who
want to assist in this labor are not asked
to send any of these works. Remember
books of fiction are badly wanted.
Those who wish to send donations of the
character suggested to the library direct
may do so. If they are sent by express or
freight address them to the Librarian, State
Farm, Ga. If by parcel post address them
to the Librarian, State Prison, Milledgeville.
The state farm is the shipping point for
freight and express but mail is sent to Mil
1edgevile.
Here is a chance to do a small part of a
big work at little cost to the individual
Almost every one has one or more books
that would be appreciated by these charges
upon the state. Several books have been
sent from here, but Dawson and Terrell
county should be much more largely repre-
scented on the shelves of this library.

The Undertaker's Salesman.

Now is the time to prepare for sanitary
and healthful conditions during the hot
months of summer, and in the campaign
there is nothing more important than to
swat the house fly, which has been called
the undertaker's travelling salesman, early
and late.
The federal government is waging war
on this pesky menace, and in late bulle-
tin prepared by the department Of agricult-
ure valuable information is given on the
best means of combating it. The most eff
fective way of exterminating the fly, accord
ing to the bulletin. is to eradicate his breed
ing places. The breeding season of the fly
begins early in March and continues
throughout the spring and summer months.
All dirt should be removed from the prem
ises, stables cleaned and decaying vegetables
destroyed.
A little cleaning up of every premise in

Ice For Fruit Trees.

Remarkable to relate, it is now March
and the Georgia fruit crop has not yet been
killed single time. We fear this is bad
omen, and that some disaster will surely
overtake it.
In this connection it is interesting to note
that in another state the question has been
asked, "Will ice save the fruit trees?" and
the suggestion made that it be tried.
The February number of "Ice and Refrig-
eration,' publication devoted to the inter
ests of the 'ice man." says that experiments
are being carried out by fruit growers who
are attempting to retard the budding of the
trees, and it has been successfully demon
strated that by burying twenty-five pounds
of ice at the roots of fruit tree budding
will be retarded until the danger of frost
has passed.
Fruit trees are likely to bud too early in
years like this, when February weather is
so mild, and a late cold spell will kill the
young fruit.
The ice experiment is at least an inter
esting one, and the result will be awaited
with much eagerness by peach growers Of
this section.
