.GENEM ASSEMBLY.
Of GEORGIA MEETS
WEDNESDAY, 10Th

ATLANTA, Ca, Junel 26-on next
Wednesday, June %, the general as
sembly of Georgia will convene in the
state capitol for it's 1916 session of the
usual fifty legislative days the latter
being fixed by the constitution as the
maximum length of regular ses-
sion.
Owing to the fact that practically ali
business in the house was blocked last
year at the regular session by the fight
involving the new prohibition laws,
there is a very large accumulation of
bills to be disposed of under the head
of unfinished business.
Among these bills of general state
wide interest and Importance are the
bills creating a highway commission,
creating the office of state auditor,
providing for free text books in the
schools, establishing state cotton
warehouse system, exempting .collere
endowments from taxation, allowing
women to practice law, allowing wo-
men to vote, requiring compulsory edu-
cation and providing for state con-
stitutional convention.
One of the most important matters
that will confront the legislature is the
urgent necessity for recognizing the
state sanitarium for the insane at Mil
ledgeville.
This institution, which is primarily
Intended for the treatment of persons
who have lost their mind, is very much
oVer-crowded by epileptics, paralytics
and other unfortunates who are de-
serving of great sympathy, but are no.
insane, and whose presence at the san
tarium reduces the capacity of that in
stitution for performing its primary
function.
The sanitarium is also greatly over
crowded and several new buildings
must be erected in order to provide
the right sort of treatment for the in
mates.
The senate's unfinished business is
much smaller in volume than that of
the house, by reason of the fact that
the senate made an exceptionally good
record at the regular session last year
IN the matter of prompt transaction
OF the bills and resolutions introduced.

TO AID AGRICULTURE.

A campaign to raise 100000 to
carry on field work to advance the
cause of agriculture in New England
has been started, and it can be asserted
that the movement is one of the most
important for the rural districts that
has ever been undertaken in New Eng
land. The details of the plan of carry
ing out this field work to promote the
interests of agriculture in New England
will not be made public until it has
been approved by board of directors.
The campaign is the result of the big
National dairy show held recently in

good time. People give them drinks of
Water from Watering Pots when it
hasn't Rained in long time, and when
weeds grow up around them, some one
comes and digs the weeds up They're
spoiled, that's what's the trouble"
And the Frost Boys said, That's
what's the trouble"
As they said this their voices sound
ed SO Cold that great many Flowers
dropped over with fear. "Oh those
Cold, Cold voices they said as they
began to drOop and drop their heads.
Then Jack Frost and the Frost BOYS
waved their Silver Shawls over all the
Flowers-except just few they passed
over which wouldn't drop so quickly.
We'll do those another time" said
Jack Frost. There's too much work
to be done Tonight" So a few Flowers
IN the Garden were left untouched.
And then they went TO the Window
Panes, and there they made queer
shapes and queer objects. They made
Castles, and Webs and dancing Figures
all out of Silver-and with their Sill

All Night long they worked, and oh
how much they did, They covered
everything with their Silver Frost. and
when it was all over Jack Frost and
the Frost Boys stood around and adj
mired their own work.
Wed better be doing something

Yes" said the Frost Boys. Lets
start out every night now for a new

We've fixed up the Gardens lust

Indeed it u.s." agreed the Frost BOYS.
The next morning when everyone
woke up and looked out, the Window
Panes were covered with Frost. and
the Flowers had all been Frost Bitten.
'Oh DEAR" everyone sighed, that
old Jack Frost has been around"
But when they saw the few Flowers
left in every Garden they were very
happy. Summer hasn't quite gone"
they said.
No. said the Flowers, we're still
here"
And you'll stay there for some time
yet" said Mr. Sun, and Mr.. South
Wind said, Wen look after YOU"
And they did, for they asked the
Fairy Queen to put old Jack Frost
asleep again for good, long nap.

MILK PRICE TO FARMERS.
Cornell Agricultural Station Issues
Bulletin on Cost of Production.

That the increased price of milk to
the farmer recently gained by their
organization, is justified on the basis
of the cost of production is indicated
by bulletin published by the Cornell
agricultural experiment station.
Figures covering year of time
gathered from 53 herds in jefferson
county, where conditions are consid-
cred to be better than in the average
dairy country, show that 161 cows,
nearly one-ffth of the total number,
brought a loss to their owner of $11.1S
per COW.
The bulletin states that Jefferson
county has COWS above the average in
production, and that the feed and 9th
er costs are lower than in many other
parts of the state, this indicating that
such profits as We're made in Jefferson
county are above those of other local.
ties where farmers report losses on
their years business.
While the college recommends that
dalrymen form COW testing associa-
tons and eliminate the low-producino
cows from their herds, it recognizes
that careful study such as this one in
) Jefferson county may aid in an under
standing of the present milk situation,
and offers its free bulletin No. 357
on the Cost of Milk Production, to
all who will apply to the College Of
Agriculture, Ithaca, NY.
