Live Stock Progress
Being Made In Georgia
Tick Eradication And The Introduc.
tion of Pure-6red Animals First
Steps Of Greatest Importance
(ANDREw M. SoULE, President Ga
State College OF Agriculture.)

(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga
State College OF Agricultural
Remarkable progress has been made
in developing animal industries in the
South in the past few years. This has
been brought about by the general
campaign Of education carried on by
the State Colleges of Agriculture and
their extension divisions anu the vari.
GUS bureaus of the United States De
partment of Agriculture. / recall quite
distinctly when the proposition to Grad
icate the cattle tick was considered a
joke and yet there are forty-two coun-
ties free of this pest in Georgia alone,
and in comparatively short time the
whole state will have been cleaned
up. The prosecution Of this campaign
by state and federal authorities
means saving and an addition to the
average wealth of the state of Georgia
of fully one million dollars a year.
The introduction of pure bred sires
is changing the character and quality
Of our beef cattle, not only in Geor-
gia, but in the southeastern states as
WELL About 1000 pure-breds, mostly
of the beef types, were brought into
Georgia last year. You can appreciate
what levening influence they are ex-
erting on our live stock industries.
Several years ago the College pur-
chased scrub COWS at $3.50 each and
crossed them with pure-bred sires.
The progeny from the third cross have
made steers weighing 1,400 pounds at
about thirty months. We have been
offered 10 cents a pound for some of
these animals, or S142.50 each. Com
pairing this with the original price of
the dam, the infinite possibilities of
live stock production in the south are
we'll illustrated, provided we use the
right type of sire and develop pastures
of bermuda grass, bur clover, Italian
rye grass and Japan clover, and util-
ize our forage and hay making legumes
such as corn and sorghum, and alfalfa,
cowpeas, velvet beans to proper adj
vantage. When our cotton lands are
devoted to the production of winter
oats and other cereals to supplement
our cotton seed meal, the state of Geor-
gia will have two or three times its
present carrying capacity of live stock.

change this very encouraging outlook
as to a bumper crop into one not so
favorable, and advised the farmers to
go slow in disposing of their cotton.
The recent heavy rains and the pres
ent unpromising outlook iustifies us
il, our representations. We again
reiterate that the farmer as well as
the dealer should not become unduly
alarmed over the outlook. Always

Commercial and Social Value Of Good Complexion.

The Importance of a clear. healthy skin
Is not given the attention In this country
which II deserves. As a social factor for
girls and a commercial factor for boys
its value cannot be overestimated. An
eminent British specialist In diseases of
the skin speculates as to the course of
history If Cleopatra had suffered from
rosacea "a disfguring skin affection);
how much Marat's lust for blood may
have been due to a chronic skin trouble;
how much Of Henry the Eighth's horri-
BILE record could be traced to the 'evil
humors' from which he suffered and
which transformed him from one of the
handsomest men OF his time to blost-
ed mass of eruptions and running sores.
The; itch which was the bane of Napo-
Icons life probably caused him to lose
the battle OF Leipslg and mot the should

TO assert that a dishguring eruption or
an Irritating blotch may change the en-
tire destiny OF their lives. Most skin
affections are caused by microbes. Acne
makes its appearance at puberty. at
which time there is great increase In
the glandular activity of the entire body;
the face is almost constantly bathed
with fatty sweat due to the increased
amount of secretions poured out by the
sweat or oil glands, the dilated ducts
of which form a harbor for the microbes
that find upon the face a suitable soil
for theh propagation. Acne Is a very
intractable disease when II has once
made considerable headway. II runs a
long, chronic course and tends to spon-
taneous cure in advancing age, usually
leaving permanent deformity of the skin
in the shape OF scars and pits that some
times closely resemble the pits of
smallpox.
Many physicians believe the nervous
system has a good deal to do with this
affection. especially in the case OF girls
who are subject to continuous nervous
strain at school or in certain employ
ments.
The inherent quality of the skin is
probably the chief factor in causing
acne. Sorne persons skins are exces-
sively oily, and these are the unfortunate
ones who suffer most from this condi-
tion. Every effort should be made be-
fore puberty Is reached. to lessen the
probability of such a condition arising.
The strictest hygiene as to diet, exclud-
ing all fats and fat-producing, as we'll
as heating substances; cleanliness, in
cluding daily baths, especially bathing
the face frequently during the day in
very hot water, and dusting It afterward
with cooling powder; plenty of out-of-
door life and sunshine and out-of-door
sports; an abundance Of sleep in a we'll
ventilated room. and such other meas
ures as will keep the whole system,
especially the nervous and glandrffar,

nal" 1t is full of interesting news re

especially. the birthplace OF the majority
of the automobiles, say there is a greal
shortage of freight cars in which to
ship machines. Many of the makers are
compelled to store them on the street ir
front of their factories. Their ware.
houses and every available bit of storag.
room in the city is filed with motor car,
that are simply waiting for freight carr
to transport them to their destination.
Some factories are requisitioning cars
that come to them loaded with raw
material and, though these in many in
stances are not really suited for the ship
ment of motor cars, they are being press.
ed into service. Dealers within a radiu,
of couple of houndred miles of Detroit
are bringing their salesman and mechanics
in and driving the machines over the
road to their homes. Some Of the rail-
roads have gone SO far as to exact 6
promise from the shipper that he win
use the cars only on their own lines and
that the minute they arrive at then
destination they shall be unloaded.
Though the price of gasoline is steadily
on the increase. 1t does not seem to have
caused many motorists to lay up their
machines, nor does it seem to have a
detrimental effect on the prospective pur-
chaser. Motor cars today have almost
become part of the daily life of those
who own them. 1t is so easy to step in
to the machine, touch the starting button
release the brake and be on your way.
So much ground can be covered by them
in such a short time that one who has
been accustomed to the use of a car feels
at loss without it. He hesitates even
to lay 1t up long enough to make
necessary repairs. All weather tops OF
the various kinds, now in common use
make the car as comfortable for the oc-
cupants in winter as in summer.
