Cordele was one of the many cities
in Georgia to extend al invitation tc
the weekly press to meet with them
next year. We rather favored Cordele
because we knew Cordele would give
us cordial welcome There are

Cordele to entertain the weekly press
and VIC know the stuff they are made
of. All the north Georgians living
down there are rich too-just as rich
as Cresus. They go down there from

time they learn better sense than to

OUR MEAT SUPPLY.

Some one has stated that Georgia's
meat supply in a year under norma
valuation is worth fifty-six million dol
lars. OF that supply we raise the six
million and import the other fifty mil
lion dollars worth 1t is further es
timated that if we were to put every
one-horse farm in Georgia to raising
beef cattle and porkers, the output
would then be insufficient for home
consumption.
Whether this state ment is true is
not half so important as the fact that
we do not even as much Begin to raise
our own meat supply. Every dealer
in the state knows that And what we
do raise is rushed on the market all
in a brief six to eight weeks in such
a manner as to make it impossible to
regulate the sales for profit
1t is safe to say that no state in the
stock raiser. There ought to be great
opportunity for the meat producer who
has so planned his business as to per.
nit him to offer his products all along
through the year at time when there
is greatest demand. In December and
January in sections of the state where
stock raising is on the increase, it is
difficult to find an inviting market, but
in every other month of the year ii

ATTENDANCE is THE THING.

Edward Everett said: Education is
a better safeguard of liberty than

The citizen of today shoulders the bur
den of more taxes for better schools
far more cheerfully than in the days
of the past and it is now possible to
give the boy and girl in the city and
country far better training than in
the past, but we are as yet only at
the beginning of system which must
guarantee better education.
With our present fund and the begin
ming of a compulsory education law
to start another years. great progress
is promised. The new law is not go
ing to put any childs parent in Jail,
but it's effect is going to be wonderful
in that it will serve in a different way
to impress on the parent the impor-
lance of having the child in school
greater number of days than hereto
fore Many a parent who knows he
is violating the law when he deprives
his child of certain number of days
in school is going to find himself pos
sessed of new pride.
According to the national bureau
of education the farm boy and the
farm girl have a school term of forty
six days shorter than their city cous-
ms. This is due to the failure to at
tend, not to the length of term pro
vided in the systems in most cases.
The further we go into the study of
the rural school term, the more evil
dent it becomes that the country pu
pills are not given square deal in free
school privileges. Attendance is the
thing of all things important The
country boy and girl must have the
required number of days in school.
When this thing has been sufficiently
impressed upon the parent, and the
full attendance has been afforded un
der the law. then it will be time to
provide more funds for longer term.

MAKING THE START.

The desire for a home of their own
caused a husband and wife to buy and
start making payments some two or
three years ago on a place suited
They worked hard, saved, dressed eco
nomically, pinched their diet and that
of their hungry little brood for more
than two years, trying to make the
payments as they fell due. The Ion
ger they worked the harder became
the task, but they did not want to
give up. They tugged and saved and
cut their food supply at home, but
lost their fight and when they moved
out to give back their place to the
man who built it and sold it to them,
the pinched, hungry faces of hard
worked parents and listless children,
and the poor appearance of their
clothes made reverses in that home
look like tragedy.
The difference in life's outlook now
and when the little family started on
the task of saving and paying for
home must be marked There is no
eloquence that can argue back into
those faces the happiness that held
sway there at the start. That strug-
gle and the unhappy end of it will
never be forgotten so long as the self
denial that prevailed in that home can
be recalled. The effort all came to
naught.
There is much to be praised in the
family that would save and own a
home. So many husbands and wives
work and save and eventually get their
homes paid for that the failure of the
one family should not become STUN
bling block for others who might win
by trying.
But there is enough in such an I'M
dertaking to justify an honest survey
of the situation before the start is
made. Where the earning capacity
is not sufficiently large to take care
of the obligation, disaster is sure to
overtake the effort And in such
case as has just been recited it is far
better to have never started than to
have begun and lost.
To have saved half the cost of the
home before the purchase was made
might have enabled this family to
have earned the other half on the
installment plan. Consideration on the
part of the person who sells the home
in such a case is due those who make
the effort to pay for it. No good man,
however eager he may be to make
will become a party to such
privation as may follow the unwise
start.

FEEDING YOUNG CALVES.
Youngsters Should Be Fed Regularly at
Frequent Intervals.

Frequent Intervals.
The mistake most frequently made
in the hand feeding of young calves is
the Kansas Farmer. The young calf
running with the COW gets its milk
at short intervals and never becomes
so hungry as to gorge itself. The dairy
calf is usually taken from the COW
about three days after birth. Some
leave them with the cows even short
er time or take them away at once.
When the hand feeding begins ma
ture is a good guide to follow. The
calf does not have a very large stom-
ach, and for the first week a couple of
quarts of warm, fresh milk at a feed
three times day are enough. The night
and morning feed should be fed as
soon as MIXED, and that saved for the
noon feeding should be warmed to the
same temperature.
Overlooking is sure to cause indi-
gestion. To be safe, all increases should
be made very gradually. The change
to skimmilk should not be made abrupt
ly. The ideal method is to replace a
half pint Of whole milk with skim
milk, and after a few days increase
the quantity Of skimmilk until by the
time the calf is four or five weeks old
it is on a diet of skimmilk alone, sup
plemented, Of course, with some
starchy grain, such as corn or Kaffir.
The we'll bred calf can easily be so
badly stunted during the first few
months that it will be of little value
in the herd later. Dairymen cannot
keep up their herds unless they become
successful calf feeders, for they must
Of necessity raise their own cows.

Notes OF The Fair

The weather man granted us
two perfect days and is now at
it again with his sprinkle pot.
The tug of war between the
farmers and stock men was won
by the latter after hard battle.
The Kamiah Indian band is
certainly a nifty aggregation and
worth the price at any time and
place.
Only one accident happened to
mar the pleasure of the fair and
that is not expected to prove
serious.
A tug of war today between
ten Indians and an equal number
of their white breathern was
won by the pale faces with ease.
Political candidates-were num-
erous as the sands of the ocean
all three days of the fair and it
is hoped they enjoyed themselves
and also garnered few votes
while here.
The wild west stunts each
afternoon took we'll with the
crowd and afforded much amuse-
ment. Some good riding was
done and several riders bit the
dust while trying to conquer the
outlaws.
During the fair August Schroe-
der sold two of his fine young
Hereford bulls for 5000 cash.
One went to Rice & Harness,
stock men of the upper Salmon
river section, and the other to
August VonBargen.
The work of Professors Nord-
by and Ray in judging the live
stock and agricultural and horti-
cultural exhibits was high class
and not single complaint was
made on their work. They had
some knotty problems to solve,
too.

The Jersey COW Merry Maiden of
Innesfells 307454, owned by DR.. ]. F..
Thompson of Portland, Me-, produced
in 1915 milk which averaged 8.13 per
cent fat for 365 days. This is the
worlds highest butter fat average for
a year record. Her lowest monthly
test was 713 per cent, made in the
sixth month of her test, and the high
est was 1905 per cent, made in the
twelfth month. The highest per cent
age of fat for single milking was II
per cent. Merry Maiden started test
at four years four months of age, IN
der the supervision of the Maine Agri-
cultural college. The final results
show that she produced 560.4 pounds
of fat or $50 pounds of So per cent
butter from 6,S965 pounds of milk.
