A MISTAKE

When Governor Dorsey failed to
call an extra session of the legisla-
ture for the making of good roads
laws-or rather to pass laws which
will make the seven and one-half
million dollar Federal Fund imme-
diately available for Georgia's roads,
he made mistake. How great one,
we will not attempt TO say. But the
fact remains that instead of making
pull for progress he put on the
brakes.
We do not know what motive the
Governor had in not calling it, but
we know that Georgia was held back
just that much, for every fair mind
ed man whether he be farmer, mer-
chant, tenant or landlord knows that
god roads are the salvation of many
and varied lines of work.
Of course, there is always that
that small minority of grouches who
never want anything improved. They
The Marietta journal. (Marietta, Ga.) 1918-1944, 1919-03-21

are naturally "again" anythin hat
tends to progress. They are afraid
that it will affect their pocketbooks
in minus way, but if they would stop
to think, the opposite is true.
Take. Habersham county, for in
stance, and figure the cost, with Fede-
raj aid, to the average taxpayers of
the county.
Suppose that we want 81 900 worth
of work done on our roads. Under
the Federal aid plan, the government
would pay one half of it. Then the
Georgia Railway and Power Co., Wof-
ford Shoals Light and Power Co.,
Southern Railway, Tallulah Falls Rail-
way, the two telegraph companies,
the two telephone comapnies, and
various other corporations will pay at
least $3.50 more. The insignificant
sum of $3.50 is left for the rank and
file of taxpayers to pay. Pretty
cheap to get dollars worth of work
for quarter, don't you think?
We hope that the next legislature
will put good roads ahead of every
thing else and shove them through.

BUSH VELVET BEAN A NEW
VARIETY

The bush velvet bean, selection
from the Alabama variety now being
produced on a commercial scale in
Georgia, is being distributed in trial
lots by the United States Department
of Agriculture. This differs from
all other velvet beans in cultivation,
as it is a bunch bean instead of a vim
ing variety 1t grows to an average
height of about three feet. 1t makes
rather less growth than either the
Alabama of Georgia varieties, while
its character of growth increases the
difficulty of harvesting seed. The
amount of heritage is somewhat less
than the average production of the
velvet bean family.
The special advantage of the bush
velvet bean is that it does not Irvine
on corn and hence does not tend to
pull down the stalks, while it is also
valuable for planting in orange and
other fruit tree groves where nom
vining bean is desired. Like cowpeas,
this bush bean may also be harvested
as hay, as the absence of twining
stems eliminate the common diff
Guilty which occurs in moving the or
binary twining varieties of velvet
beans. Bush beans are planted about
the same time as cotton, when the
soil is thoroughly warm, the seeds
being dropped two or three feet apart
in rows three or three and half feet
in width and covered the same as
corn. 1t is customary to plant the
beans either alone or in the same
rows with the corn. One bushel of
seed will plant two or three acres.
After planting, the crop should be
cultivated about like cowpeas.

REVIVAL PREACHING AT
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

On entering the church the visitor
is impressed with the welcome at tne
door. Some business men are enough
interested to see that people are MADE
to feel at home and find seat. They
have been working all day, and YET
thew remain at church until 9:3o. IL
must be of as much Importance as
business! -,
On Monday the church was not fuil'
but on Tuesday night it was packed
The text was the first part OF Jonn
II:16. ending with perish. The SUD-
iect had been announced. SO the
neople who came wanted to hear
about He'll. They heard. The preach
er kept his word.
On Monday night he had preached
about the Word Of God. He believed
it because it always came true.
Tuesday night he told about Hell
nd it's inhabitants. He believed there
was a hell because Jesus SAID tnere
was. He used the Bible to prove 1t.
When he had finished, no one doubted
that there was a Hell-a very real,
practical He'll, such He'll that IN
order to be released from it one Would
gladly take as an alternative the con-
yentional furnace of fire and orlm-
stone, if by that he might be ami
hilated!
One startling idea was expressed IN
addition to despair, memory, con-
science, which would cause torment,
and that was recrimination. The child
saving to parent: "You brought me
here, because you knew and you did
not show me another way"
Brother accusing brother; and fel-
lows their companions. And the i'm
age of God being wiped out, men
are turned loose in their natural state'
with fierce passions. :,
The gentle Jesus told about He'll
in the beautiful sermon on the mount
The loving John opens up its horrors
in the Revelation. 1t is in the back
ground of all St. Pauls teachings, and
is the alternative of faith in Jesus
Christ. And it is Gehenna they speak
of, not Hades-the place of torment,
anguish, thirst, and burning, where
the fire is not quenched and the worm
dieth not"
And yet there are many today who
have no hope in Christ, no love for
God, and who do not mind spiritual
things" AS a fathers loving care
for his children sometimes smothers
gratitude, so in some people, Gods
kindness and mercy seem to hide Him
from men; and they await His rod.

The small size and the compactness
of these shells protect them from some
of the accidents that befall the re-
mains of larger animals, so that IN
many samples of well borings the
Foramininfera are the only shells
that have survived in recognizable
form the vicissitudes of drilling. In
the hand of specialists trained to
identify fossils the Foramininfera
may furnish the only available clue
to the age of rock inclosing them and
consequently to the existence OF stra-
ia or structure favorable or unfavor-
able to the accumulation OF oil, gas,
or water. Thus the "spectacled sclen-
tist," who may really look like an
alert business man, becomes the help

of the Interior, has recently issued
report that may be of great value IN
the search for underground water, oil
and gass. This report, prepared by
Joseph A. Crushman and issued as
Survey Bulletin CTS, contains descrip-
tons of some species of Foraminin-

INTERESTING RULING
IN CONFISCATION CASE

Albany, Ca, March 18.-There is
much discussion among lawyers and
officers of the law of point that was
brought out in a decision rendered
by Judge Beverley D. Evans in United
States court here last week, when he
decided that the owners consent of
knowledge is not necessary for the
confscation of vehicle used in car
rying illicit whiskey. Revenue Off
GERS caught a negro named Randall
hauling an illicit still in a wagon.
They confscated the still and started
condemnation proceedings against the
mule and wagon. 1t developed that
the mule belonged to the negro's
father, and that A. W. Muse & Co.,
of Albany, held mortgage against
the mule. The wagon belonged to
another negro, named Griffin, and
Randall had taken it from Griffin's
lot while the owner was not at home.
Muse & Co. filed a claim bond for the
mule, and Griffin took like action for
his wagon. Judge Evans held that,
under a recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court, section 3450
of the United States revised statutes
covered property used in the manu-
facture or transportation of whiskey,
whether used with the knowledge or
consent of the owner or not.
Court officials also state that the
federal statutes also empower the
government to confiscate the lot of
land on which an illicit still is located,
or adjoining land which the owner
allows to be used for ingress or egress
to the place of unlawful business.
