WORK
By DR.. Frank Crane

I A correspondent asks what to do.
The answer is, go to work
That is tn only safe answer to SO general
a question.
There is no form of human activity nobler
nor more necessary than that of providing
food clothing shelter, and transportation for
the race.
AS Carlyle says, produce! In Gods name,
produce!''
The man who can be most certain that he
is doing the will of the universe. helping
some and hurting none, is the business man.
which term includes all who labor with hand
or brain to supply themselves and their fell
lows with the needs anC wholesome enjoy
ments Of life.
Such a man is the only one who is sure
that he is not making mischief.
The writer, the poet. the artist, the preach
er, the reformer the politician, do not know.
1t may turn out they are doing more harm
than good. Subsequent ages of wisdom may
regard their efforts as hindrances to progress.
They may simply have been in the road.
But WhoeV' raiseA tatOes or wheat, II
grinds flour, or bakes bread, or makes coats,
or as merchant brings these goods to the
people, he only is undoubtedly moral.
And whose teaches children how to control
themselves and to cooperate with others for
the common good, and to work in fidelity and
to keep themselves off other peoples backs,
the same shall be called greatest in the king
dom Of heaven.

Money Well MUested.

In heartily indorsing the appeal of the
State College of Agriculture for funds where
with to complete the plant of it's bureau OF
animal husbandry, the Augusta Chronicle
reminds us that the work of this department
is worth millions of dollars to the people OF
Georgia. '1t has earned much more than it
has received, or is now asking. Every dollar
expended for its equipment and it's work
will be worth many times what it costs in tax
returns, to say nothing of the increased
prosperity of the people,
The truth of this observation will impress
anyone who studies the practical results of
sound education. No amount of money which
the State can invest in such undertakings
would be excessive, for the more extensive and
the more thorough this kind of work is made,
the richer will the Commonwealth become
richer not only in material prosperity but in
enterprise and progress as well.
Consider for example, the benefits when
have accrued to Georgia from the last five or
ten years of development in her live stock in
dustries Before hog and cattle raising had
become a considerable part of our farm &C
tiVities, we spent vast sums in buying meat
products in distant rkets. Millions upon
millions of dollars needed for the promotion
of home enterprises went to the West. More
than that, a great and fertile field of home
resources remained unutilized. Lacking food
animals, we lacked also the incentive to raise
feed and food crops. The Affection system
was thus more firmly intrenched and true ag-
ricu1tural freedom rendered all the more diff
cult of achievement.
But see what has resulted from decade CT
1esssofs education in live stock raising. 'Geor-
gia is now next to the very top of the States
in point of hog production, and is forging
swiftly forward in cattle industries. She is
saving for her own peoples needs millions of
the huge bill formerly paid to the West. She
is developing invaluable resources which for
merly lay idle. She is growing in agricultural
independence, and so is strengthening the
broadcast bases Of her material progress and
Wellbeing. These achievements, be it remen-
bered, would not have been possible, or GER
tainly would not have come about within SO
short time, if there had been no agricultural
college, no bureau of animal husbandry, no
department of agriculture, no district farm
schools and county demonstration agents. The
appropriations made 70. these purposes are
being returned to the taxpayers a hundred
and a thousandfold in the general increase
of prosperity and opportunity
The flying men were Boosting little about
the risks they had run and the falls they had
survived and the meek civilians listened and
gasped. One of the latter, however, was not
quite so meek as he seemed.
