FROM AN OLD SCRAP
BOOK

DOOAs
The following note and clippings
will be Of interest to Journal readers:
Enclosed you viii find clippings
that may be of some assistance to you
in identifying the true author of the
beautiful poem eff / Should Die To-
night published in the Journal a
few days ago and asking whether its
authorship has been definitely estab-
lished.
The following are the lines as they
appear in Haggard's novel:
eff should die tonight,
Then would'st thou look upon my
quiet face,
Before they laid me in my resting
place,
And deem that death had made it al
most fair;
"And, laying snow-white flowers
against my hair,
Would'st on my cold cheek tender
kisses press,
And fold my hands with lingering
caress,
Poor hands, so empty and SO cold to-
night
IF I should die tonight,
Then would'st thou call to mind with
loving thought
Some kindly deed the icy hands had
wrought,
Some tender words the frozen lips
had said,
Errands on which the willing feet had
sped;
The memory Of my passion and my
pride,
And every fault would sure he set
aside,
So should be forgiven of all tonight.
death waits on me tonight,
Fen now my summons echoes from
afar,
And grave mists gather fast about
my star
Think gently Of me; am travel-wcrn
My faltering feet are pierced with
many thorn,
The bitter world has made my faint
neafC D1eeQ.
When dreamless rest is mine / shall
not need
The tenderness for which / long to-
night!'
The following is the opening stanzs
hof Mrs. Townsend's "Creed;"
e'I believe e should die,
lAnd you should kiss my eyelids when
I lie,
Cold, dead, and dumb to all the world
contains,
The faded orbs would open at thy
breath,
And, from its exile in the isles Of
death
Life would come gladly back along my
veins"
The following comment by LilliaI
Whiting seems to establish the iden
tity of the poet:

is published that happens to strik

What County Agents
Are Doing In Georgia
Adding Wealth To Farming Sections
Of Georgia BY Many Helpful
Contributions
(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga.
State College OF Agricultural

(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga.
State College OF Agriculture)
Last year the adult demonstrators
raised 15,105 acres of corn with an av-
erage yield of 40.1 bushels per acre;
1896 acres of cotton with an average
yield of 1916 pounds of seed cotton
per acre; 7,712 acres of oats with an
average yield of SO bushels per acre.
Compare these figures with the aver
age for the state and see the influence
for agricultural betteIment which has
been conferred on these farmers
through the work of the county agent.
In addition, the agents were RESPONSE
BILE for the seeding under approved
methods of $2,639 acres of clover, A.
013 acres of wheat, 1,0S5 acres of pea
nuts, gel acres of rye, 904O acres
of cowpeas, 126 acres of vetch, 75s
acres of soy and velvet beans and $50
acres of hay crops.
The agents also aided in the estab-
lishment of 10,402 acres of pasture
land 1888 gardens, in the prepare
ton of $4,000 tons of fertilizer, and
the pruning and spraying OF 4,115
acres of orchards. They have encour-
aged the stumping of 50920 acres of
land, the terracing of 1850 acres, and
the drainage of 600 more. They are
also largely responsible for the pur-
chase of 100000 worth of improved
machinery.
Through their efforts 1859 pure bred
cattle, principally of the beef breeds
have been brought into the state. Ad-
vice has been given relative to the
purchase feeding and management Of
thousands of beef and dairy cattle,
and hogs. At least $4,000 hogs have
been inoculated with protective serum,
thus effectively controlling the spread
of swine plague, and encouraging the
DEVELOPMENT of this industry on basis
somewhat commensurate with Geor
gia's needs. One hundred and twenty
eight modern farm buildings have been
erected through their influence, as
we'll as 262 silos and 619 dipping watts.
Waterworks and lighting systems
have been installed in $50 homes and
telephone connections placed in 300
more.
Groups of farmers have been organ
lied in II local cooperative clubs, AZ
county or school fairs promoted and
255 special meetings held. The agents
have made over 300 visits to the
schools and met personally $4,000
teachers, parents and pupils. They
travelled in their own conveyances
5000 miles.

BOYS and Girls Short Courses
Prize Winners In Club Contests TIC
Spend Ten Days At College
August 8-18

(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga.
State College OF Agricultural
The annual Boys and Girls Short
Course will be held at the Georgia
State College of Agriculture August
8-18, 1916. 1t is expected that about
800 boys and girls who have won
scholarships to this short course will
come to Athens, enjoy themselves and
at the same time acquire useful in
formation and an inspiration that will
do them good for the remainder OF
their lives.
Preparations have been made to take
the very best care of the boys and
girls. They will find rooms at the
University dormitories and use the
University dining room, athletic
grounds, gymnasium and, in fact, will
have everything the University pos
sesses at their disposal. The courses
of instruction will be given at the Ag-
ricultural College. These courses will
be interesting, practical and suited to
students at the age of boys and girls.
While attending the Short Course
the boys and girls will be under strict
supervision of those appointed to have
charge. of them, and such regulations
will prevail as that parents may be
assured that their children are we'll
looked after.
The scholarships held by the boys
and girls should pay railroad fare and
board while in Athens. Parents should
encourage their children to make use
of the scholarships. 1t will mean
much to them. 1t may mean the
turning point in their lives. Determi-
nations may be made which will ulti-
mate in the achievement of great pur-
poses, and it will doubtless be mem
orable occasion for all.
Not only is the Short Course open
for girls and boys who hold scholar
ships, but other girls and boys who
are properly recommended by county
agents, may register and take advan-
tage of the course. They must, of
course, pay their own railroad fares
and board while in Athens.
The Short Course for girls and boys
was changed from mid-winter to Au-
gust in the belief that it would not
only suit the girls and boys better but
in order to better take care of them
at the College of Agriculture than is
possible while school is in session.
For further information a letter di-
rected to the College of Agriculture
will bring a circular or a personal
letter.
