than four million five hundred thousand
dollars profits to the farmers, due to in
creased production to saving in conse-
quence of following methods recommended"
In Georgia, where this branch of service
had it's genesis, in connection with the boys
corn clubs, the results of the farm demon
stration and home demonstration have been
no less fruitful than in the North and West
Indeed it was in the Southeast, as the Sa-
vanna11 Morning News Interestingly recalls,
that the county agent did his first and most
notable work as 1.-THE agricultural doctor
the trouble man of the farm, the teacher
the organizer, the director the adviser"
Few counties in this State are without the
services of either farm or home demon
stration agent and no county can afford not
to avail itself of them both. Let this
system of practical education, which means
so much to the enrichment and progress of
the district in which it is operating, be
established throughout the Commonwealth.

What is the use to hold cotton, and then
plant full acreage this year,"
With this one query, Mr.. G. E. Summer
a leading merchant Oh Newberry, South Car
DINA, strikes to the heart of what is now
the South's all-engrossing problem, In let,
ter to The Journal, he continues:
I'VE can control the situation, pro-
vided we act, and act at once; and the
only action needed is drastic curtail-
ment of the acreage of cotton and cur
tailment of the use of fertilizers.
This is the most critical year we have
ever had. Let us be true to one an
other-large and small farmers alike
and prosperity such as was never
dreamed of before will come to the
South We have the situation in our
own hands. Why should we throw it
away? Hold your cotton, reduce your
acreage and fertilizer from thirty to
forty per cent, and success will surely
be yours"
Curtailment of the 1919 output Of cotton
is the base upon which all other plans Ino
efforts for remedying present conditions
must rest if they to be of effect. Merely
to hold the cotton he has on hand would
advantage the grower nothing, if he pro
ceeded to add big crop to the supply fol
which he is now unable to get fair price
that indeed would make bad matters worse
But so soon as it becomes evident that this
years production will be vigorously cur
tailed the market will react tavorably, and
more reasonable prices for both the present
and the future will be assured.

school. Our people have not BET in posi-
ton to indulge such wasteful folly. Our edu-
cational institutions have been too poor to
support the sdeshows
Let us embrace the opportunity offered by
the era of reconstruction to make our col
leges what they were designed to be-educa-
tional institutions.
The south needs educated men too sorely
to allow any of her colleges to be turned into
establishments for supporting the public with
"substitutions for the circus, the prizefght,
and the gladiatorial combat"
Endowments by philanthropists and appro-
priations from the treasures of states are
perverted and defeated when they are used to
support these sideshows instead of serving
the purposes of the highest culture
Let boys who refuse to attend institutions
which do not have the sideshows, stay at
home and go to the movies" Such play
struck youths will not learn much anywhere,
and may we'll be left out of account in making
plans for real educational institutions.

Demand for Food Animab.

If anyone be dubious of a future demand
for Georgia live stock, he should read the re-
port recently issued by Government COM
mission which has been Investigating agr1-
cultural conditions in Europe.
In virtually every country across the Allan
tic there is shortage of farm animals, par
ticularly those depended upon for food that
promises to sustain for many season to
come the present vigorous demand for Amer1-
can products. 1t appears, for example, that
in France there is a shortage of four mil
lion head of cattle, about six million sheep
and nearly three million hogs. Italy, it is
calculated, needs at least six million sheep
addition to great numbers of oxen, sheep and
hogs. Most of the other nations of the con-
tinent, belligerent and neutral alike, are
similarly circumstanced, so that there is GER
tain to be a market for all the meats, fats
and dairy products which can be produced.
To state so richly endowed as Georgia is
in natural resources for animal husbandry'
the situation should be exceedingly st@mulat-
ing.

THE DAY
BY DR.. Frank Crane

The mad Germans used to toast the day.
They saw it as the elimination of racial
ambition, as triumph of organized milttar-
ISM as the realization of the old dream of
empire, world dominion by supermen, the
same old dream that Alexander had, and
Caesar, and Napoleon.
The day came.
But it was not what they had thought
When the realty appeared they discovered
that they had been looking toward 1t with
astigmatic eyes. Instead of the frowning
frightfu1ness of military dominance 1t bore
the face of Universal Brotherhood.
Saturday, January 25th in the year Of our
Lord 1919 was the day.
1t was the greatest day since the birth Of
Christ.
1t was the day on which the representa-
tives of the nations earth in council as
sembled voted without dissenting voice to
adopt league, of nations.
This marks the triumph of the modern
idea of federation over the outworn idea Of
empire.
1t signifies that cooperation has won
at last the victory over competition.
1t is the supreme triumph of human intel
ligence over brute force.
1t is the greatest stride which the youth Of
the world has ever made away from the
hampering shackles of the past.
1t is a great eliminating day. an epoch of
u6SLluy, WHICH Shall D6 WTlLI0u uOWn III ISL-
tiers of gold in future histories.
Humanity has turned a new page.
At last we have done the one and only
thing that relieve mankind from the
horrible folly, stupidity, and brutality Of war
At last we have found the key, the door is
open and the human race can march for
ward without stopping every few years to in
dulge in debauch of destruction.
1t was not artificial deed. 1t was the
result of G7olution the bursting into bloom
of flower through the centuries preparing.
1t was the world coming OF age
It was Jesus Christ, with His theory of
universal brotherhood at last, after two
thousand years, having His way.
1t was the triumph of every nation over
iself.
1t was Democracy coming into its own.
1t was tt day of days.
