Drainage for Abbling.

The Bailey News-Banner is making sus-
tanned and forceful effort for the reclamation
of Appling county wet lands. Success for
this enterprise would mean, it says, the
establishment of IAN empire of fertility in
region of the State practically free from
blighting cold.'
The gains for the property owners con-
cerned would repay hundreds of times over
the cost of the improvement, and would be
for all time. 1t is matter of record that
lands which formerly sold for few dollars
an acre, or were unstable at any price, now
athat they have been drained are worth up
wards OF a hundred dollars an acre and are
yielding crops of wonderful bounty. @
But the good results are not limited to the
individual owners; rather, they extend to the
entire community and district. The reclama-
ton of swamp lands produces new wealth.
new opportunity and new business Moreover
it removes menace to public health by de-
stroying the breeding places of malarial-
bearing mosquitoes. 1t increases the income
of the county and of the State treasury and
thus contributes to the support of schools and
the betterment of roads.
There are few enterprises, indeed, at once
so substantial and so wide-reaching in the
public benefits they offer that which the
Bailey News-Banner is urging in it's county
and which ought to be exploited in every part
of Georgia where swamp lands are found.

In pleading the worthy cause of adequate
support for the District Agricultural schools
the Triton Gazette points out that these insti-
buttons are the connecting links between the
sons and daughters Of the farm and the State
College of Agriculture; that they are the
most available means, mot only for train
ing the farmers and farmers wives OF the
future, but also for training instructors for
various Industrial branches but that in
spite of this they have been sorely stinted
by the Legislature since their establishment
twelve years ago. = g.
The time has come when justice to these
essential schools should be granted in I'M
grudging measure. The lands on which they
stand were provided by the communities
where they are located as were also the
buildings and equipment. The least that the
State in fairness and reason can do is to
maintain and develop them.
This is matter of material concern to the
entire Commonwealth. In each of the twelve
Congressional districts is one of these agricul-
tural and mechanical schools, rich in posi-
bi1ities of service to the people, but as regards
district and the State as a whole are losing
opportunities of incalculable value, all for
lack of comparatively small appropriation
to turn these institutions duly to account.
The bases for efficient and far-reaching edu-
cation are there; the farm boys and girls,
thousands of them, eager for instruction, are
there; the interest and loyalty of the various
communities are there; but through neglect
on the part of the State priceless resources
| are going to waste.
| The present Legislature, let us earnestly
| hope, will see the situation in it's vital bear
ings and provide the needful funds.

H Notable ConUention
OF the Georgia Press

While the annual meetings of the Georgia
State Press Association ever have been
events of rare interest this years conven-
ton by all accounts rings new record and
sets a new pace. The attendance is larger
and more widely representative; the en-
thusiasm at once keener and more sub
stantial; the spirit of fraternal goodwill
brims over; and amongst the delegates one
and all there is a manifest purpose to make
the Association and the individual papers
composing it more than ever effective in
Georgia's upbuilding.
With the charming town of Monroe anu
the hospitable county of Walton as hosts, 1t
Is not to be wondered that the convention
finds itself in the happiest of humors. That
historic community rich in the States good
Hest traditions and mingling the graces of
the Old South with the progressiveness of
the New, attracted quite naturally an un-
usually large number of the editors, and is
entertaining them with deft and bountifu1
hand.
AS for the thoughtful enthusiasm which
marks the business sessions Of the Associa-
ton, how could it be otherwise with so fruit
full a year behind and one so freighted with
opportunity ahead? The press of Georgia,
particularly the weekly press and the dailies
of the rural counties, played it's part in the
war with superb loyalty and with useful
ness beyond all reckoning. We refer par
ticularly to the weeklies because theirs was
the mission of carrying the right message to
the majority of Georgia farmsdes, and be-
cause, moreover, they constitute the great
rank and file of the State Press Associations
membership.
In the period of readjustment upon which
we now are entering, these al have work
no less inspiriting than that which claimed
their devotion in time of war. It is the dis
tinctly patriotic work of helping to build
more and better schools, more and better
highways, more and better facilities Of every
kind that make for human progress, en-
lightenment and wellbeIng. That they are
dedicated to this good service-weeklies and
dailies alike-with full-hearted resolution is
evident from every aspect of their present
convention. The Journal gives them its
heartiest greeting and wishes them, each
and all, year of unexampled usefulness
and prosperity.

The Lure of the Farm.

Indiana is rejoicing over a marked re-
versal Of the one-time tendency of her farm
boys to leave the country homestead for the
more stressful but less fruitful life of the
city. The president of that States Board of
Agriculture finds from a recent survey that
there are probably twenty thousand youths
who would have hurried away for urban
luck few years ago, but who now are
sticking to the substantial opportunities of
their rural environment. The Indianapolis
News Interestingly comments that:
The theory so commonly held a few
years ago that the farm homestead
should fall to the least ambitious son.
to be managed and exploited as best he
could, has been largely exploded by the
son himself, who turned out in many
cases to be a better man than the broth
go ers and sisters who made a mothlike
= descent upon the bright city. In the
wreckage of this theory can be seen
many thousand good farmers dragging
themselves through futile routine of
city office work. OF course, what they
are doing is useful and necessary, and
to the outsider perhaps quite glitter
ing. The exiled farm boy in the city
knows better.
The changed conditions over which In
diana is so gratified are happily evident in
Georgia. The fact is, farm life in this
State has always kept its hold upon the
people more firmly than in many other parts
OF America. At the same time the cityWard
drift has not infrequently grown too swift for
the common good. But with the betterment
of highways and schools and easier condi-
tions of rural living, the pull is strongly to-
ward the farm again; and especially has this
+ been true since the great advance in agricul-
tural values. 1t will take more and better
schools and more and better highways how
ever, to give rural Georgia, which means
most of Georgia, it's due chance. By all
means let them be built.

Cobb Connty,s Highvays.

True to the constructive spirit now mani
fest throughout Georgia, the road commits
sioners of Cobb county have decided to sub
nit to their people bond issue for extensive
highway improvements If the opinion of the
Cobb County Times is typical of it's territory
and we assume that it is, the measure is GER
tain to carry. Says that thoughtful and pro-
gressive journal:
Cali are realizing that our prosperity
cannot reach its greatest head until we
travel over better roads. The great pros
perity of the moment is based on the
elimination of distance by improved
transportation. Relatively as fast as we
can eliminate miles of distance from the
place of production to the place of the
consumer, just so fast will our present
prosperity be multiplied. Railroads were
the institutions which made our first
prosperity possible. 1t has been so
greatly increased in the last few years
because of improved railway transporta-
ton and the development of automobiles.
But the development of the agricultural
districts and agricultural lands will
meyer extend beyond infancy until the
country roads are put in condition to
sustain automobile traffic"
The truth of this observation is borne out
by the experience of hundreds of counties the
Nation over Wherever highways in rural
districts have been built with view to per-
manency and to the accommodation of motor
traffic, land values have increased crop earn
ings have multiplied and prosperity has made
its abode. Such results will be especially
marked in Georgia in the years Immediately
ahead, for the reason that motor trucks are
coming more and more into use for rura
transportation. The county that has hard
surfaced roads will avail itself easily of the
advantages thus to be secured; but the county
that has nothing better than the old "drt'
road will inevitably lag.
