Old Timer OF
The Old DAYS
Remembers

ATLANTA, Ca, June 20.-Cany Will
hellums, who has no record of his
birth, but traces it back to Thomas
Jeffersons administration as president
OF the United States, is slowly dying at
his home, three miles north of
Trion, Ca, according to word brought
t. Atlanta today. Mr.. Wilhellums is
somewhere in the neighborhood of 106
years old, having been born eleven
years after the death of George Wash
ington.
He was never sick day in his life
until few months ago. He attrib-
utes his long life to the fact that he is
has never used tobacco, alcohol or cof-
fee. During the civil war he was a
blacksmith and gunmaker ard he was
left with his job at home He never
learned to either read or write, but
kept his own books by signs indicat-
ing figures and names.

GEORGIA LEADS THE STATES
IN MAKING ASBESTOS HERE

Atlanta, Ca, June 20.-Georgia
Produces far more asbestos than any
other state, according to a government
report that has just been received in
Atlanta. The asbestos is Of the amphi-
bole variety and of the mass-fiber
type, in which 80 per cent. of the rock
guarried appears in the finished prod
net; it can, therefore, be produced at
Much lower cost than other asbestos.
II is all ground and fiberized to practi-
caIIy one grade suitable for the manu-
facture Of cements, plasters, shingles
and asbestos lumber. There are two
companies operating, one with mine
Fear Cleveland, Ca, and mill at
Gainesville Ca, and the other in At
lanta, with its mine and mill at Holly
wood.

Adding Wealth To Farming Sections
OF Georgia BY Many Helpful

ANDREW M. SoULE, President Ga.
State College OF Agricultural

(ANDREW M. SoULE, President Ga.
State College OF Agricultural
Last year the adult demonstrators
raised 15,1O5 acres of corn with an av-
erage yield of 40.1 bushels per acre;
6,396 acres of cotton with an average
yield of 1875 pounds of seed cotton
per acre; 1912 acres of oats with an
average yield of 50 bushels per acre.
Compare these figures with the aver
age for the state and see the influence
for agricultural betterment which has
been conferred on these farmers
through the work of the county agent.
In addition, the agents were RESPONSE
bic for the seeding under approved
methods of S2,639 acres Of clover, f.

Through their efforts 1862 pure bred

purchase feeding and management of
thousands of beef and dairy cattle,

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 Geof>

Preventing Forest Fires
]. B. BERRY, Prof. Forestry, State
College OF Agriculture

The exceedingly dry spring, togeth-
er with the ignorance and careless
ness of people in the forest, is respon-
sible for the great fire damage this
year. Everywhere throughout south
and central Georgia, the air is hazy
with the smoke from many small for
est fires. Thousands of acres of tur-
pentine orchards have been burned
over with corresponding loss in trees,
cups and equipment. In the swamps
the fire has eaten down through the
humus often times many feet to the
mineral soil, destroying in few days
the slow accumulation of many years
of fertility.
Forest fires are not necessary evil!
They may be prevented even during
such an extremely dry season as this.
Many fires originate from live cinders
from railroad or logging locomotive
or from steam skidder. A good spark
arrester will take care of the situation;
only it is necessary that it be properly
fitted to the smoke stack and that the
engineer be held responsible for any
holes punched in it. Many other fires
originate from deserted camp-fires,
cigarette and cigar stubs, live Goals
from a pipe and matches which are
thrown away without being fully extin-
guished. Surely a hunter or fisherman
should have enough gratitude for the
privilege of using another mans land
to do all he can to prevent fires on
the property. Still other fires orig
mate in the neighborhood of farms,
especially where fire is used in clear
ing land. Naturally, this work should
be deferred until a safer season.
All forest fires have small begin
nings. In the history of every fire,
there was time when it might have
been controlled with one pail of
water or one shovel Of sand. If ev-
cry one did his duty at such time,
there would be no forest fires. There
are, however, reasonable precautions
which every forest owner should take.
A fire line consisting Of three or four
burrows may be plowed about wood
lot, or, in the case of larger tract,
a number of lines may be run through
the forest at right angles to each 9th
err. Even a double furrow cutting
down to mineral soil will effectively
check a ground fire. After a fire has
started it is often possible to get out
with a small pillow and prevent its
further extension. In the case of tur
pentine orchard the needles and other
inflammable material should be kept
raked away from the trees at all sea-
sons Of the year. Along railroads there
should be q double fire lane on each
side of the right of way, the first at a
distance of so to so feet from the
track, the second at distince of 100
to $50 feet If such simple preventa-
tive measures are taken, and every
one extinguishes the small fires, there
will be no great loss through the agen-
cy of fire in the forest
