TO DESTROY BIRDS NESTS
A VIOLATION OF LAW

The law of Georgia provides that
1T shall be unlawful for any person
TO take or needlessly destroy the
nest or eggs of any wild non-game
bird, or have such nest or eggs in
his or her possession, except as per
mitted by this article"
The same article provides that the
English sparrow, the iackdaw, the
lark, the crow and other canniblais-
tic birds are excepted. In this vicini-
ty the English sparrow, jay bird and
butcher bird, commonly known as
the French knocking bird, are the
only birds whose nests, eggs or young
may be destroyed without a violation
of the law ALI of the other birds
are valuable. not only for their
beauty, but for the great benefits to
be derived from their destruction of
insect life.
The teachers of the different
schools should, at convenient times,
call sthe attention of the pupils in the
city and county to the law enacted
for the protection of bird life. II
these laws are not observed, the
time Will soon come when the blue
0ird, the red birds, the oriole and the
hooking bird will no longer exist, ex-

Saturday, April 1 Is
To Be Flower Day

Saturday in Georgia will be Flower
Day" and all of Georgia will, or at
least should, wear a flower.
The object Of Flower Day" is to
honor the women of the sixties. Vir-
tually this is Memorial Day, No. 2. 10
many towns and cities throughout the
state will hold appropriate services.
No more fitting tribute could be paid
to the women of those dark days than
TO wear flower in their memory. Then
on Saturday, let everybody, rich and
poor, high and low, wear a flower. If
you have no money with which to buy
one, wear one anyway And right here
let us suggest if you have flowers more
than you need, divide with those who
have not, thus making Saturday April
/, 1915, one long and reverently to
be remembered in the annals of our
country.

Near the West Limits

Balm. avenue is to be opened across
the net work of tracks Of the Chicago
and NorthW estern Railway Company
as the council has elected q commits
sion to decide on the opening of the
street and to assess benefits and dam
age. The commission is composed of
Charlie A. Tarbell, FL. W. Reith, John
Zens, Charles A. Turnock and George L.
Villnow For more than two years the
property owners along Balm avenue
have been demanding that the street
be opened. The plan has been oppos-
ed by the railway company on the
ground that the crossing of so many
tracks would make most dangerous
crossing. It is possible that the rail
way company viii appeal the matter
to the State Railroad Commission. 1t
is also declared that the cost of the
street opening will be large one and
that many property owners will be
called to contribute to this cost. The
property owners seem to be willing to
pay any reasonable amount.

PAPER BALLOTS FOR THE CITY
County Clerk Declares That Without

Discarded This Year.

believe that this is the only way that
the matter can be solved. -

VISIT KENosHA CABBAGE FIELDS
Prominent Experts from the University
of Wisconsin Study Results
of Pure Seed.

Cabbage growing, the immense acre
age in Racine and Kenosha counties, is
attracting attention throughout the
United States, Saturday distinguished
men from the University of Wisconsin
were here inspecting the fields. The
party included Charles R. Van Hise,
president of the university; NJ. E. Me
Caffrey, secretary; H. J. Thorkelson,
business manager; D. A. Mahoney, F.
W. A. Noltz, A. J. Horlick, regents;
DR.. H. L. Russell, Profs. L. R. Jones,
Cole and Vaughan, also delegation
from the Vegetable Growers Associa-
ton, which closed its convention in
Chicago on Saturday. The regents were
the guests Of A. J. Horlick, of Racine.
The party was taken through the
fields in automobiles furnished by Re-
gent Horlick, and most careful in
spection was given the cabbage crop,
its condition, etc. The regents of the
university usually make an annual tour.
Among the fields visited in Racine
county were those of A J. Piper and
his brother and W. j. Hansche, and in
Kenosha county, William Braid and the
Bose brothers.
Prof. L. R. Jones said this year was
a bad year for cabbage disease, but that
the Wisconsin Hollander cabbage stood
up we'll.
He said that one field, Of cabbage,
of six acres, was seen in this county
this morning in which half was of cab
bage grown from ordinary seed and
half from disease resisting seed. The
grower said he would get less than one
ton per acre from the part sown with
ordinary seed, while from the other
part of the field, sown with disease
resisting seed, he would average Is
tons per acre, which, Prof. Jones said,
everyone would agree was great
achievement, considering cabbage this
fall is bringing $37 ton.
According to Prof. Jones, only 100
pounds of the seed was planted in Ra-
cine and Kenosha counties this year,
owing to the scarcity of the supply.
Next year, he said, about $50 pounds
would be sown, this amount being on
hand at Madison now for distribution
among the growers. Tt takes one year
to grow cabbage and another year to
get the seed.
