crop plan. 1t will result in more con-
tentment to your soul and more money
to your bank account"
The wisdom and foresight Of this counsel,
if consistently applied, will mean secure
and prosperous autumn. Untoward weather
has delayed spring work to such an extent
that cotton is likely to be unusually late in
maturing. This means extraordinary risks,
against the boil weevil in southern counties
and against blighting frosts in the north.
That there will be profitable market for all
the cotton produced is not to be gainsaid.
But with the chances of production so uncer-
tain, it would be exceedingly ill advised to
stake the farms hopes upon this crop to the
exclusion or curtailm emit of foodstuffs.
The pronounced shortage in winter wheat
is but one among many indications that the
future market for grains and other food sta
pies will be highly advantageous to the
grower. Out Of the rich diversity which Geor-
gia soil and climate afford for such crops the
planter can make sure of ample success and
rewards in several fields, even though he fail
in others. Herein lies the special aptness of
the Market Bureaus advice to present con-
ditions In any circumstances good judg-
ment as we'll as agricultural science calls for
crop diversification. But in the peculiar Diff
ficulties and uncertainties now upon us any
other policy would be altogether rash.

The Scarcity Of Farm Labor.

Farmers complain that short hours and
high wages have attracted thousands of. la
borers from the farm to the city. The
worker, with more or less justice replies that
the farmer demands sixteen hours for days
labor, provides unattractive and disagreeable
sleeping quarters, and offers no form of
recreation beyond an occasional cock fight
in the barn yard The fact that there is an
element Of truth in the contention of each
makes it apparent that both should seek
basis of mutual agreement for in no other
way can the problem be solved satisfactorily.
"Short hours, high pay and easy work in
the cities have not only kept outside labor
away from the farms, but it is taking the
farmers children and even the farmers
themselves to the cities and leaving the farms
sadly undermanned," writes Illinois far
mer, who adds that 'Fthe result will be that
in short time city labor will have it's pockets
full of money and nothing in it's stomach"
There is good deal of truth in what this
Illinois farmer has to say, and there is in his
statement fact that is designed to bring the
farmer and the laborer together. The man
with an appetite, and nothing in his stomach
is very likely to seek TO go where he can
get plenty to eat in exchange for what he has
in his pockets.

THE HOSPITAL
By DR.. Frank Crane

Copyright, 1920, by Frank Crane.)
The medical profession is simply the best
intelligence of the race applied to the SUBJ
ject of health.
1t is common sense addressed to physical
welfare.
1t is fact versus hocus-pocus; truth YER
sus fiction experience versus fancy; noon
day versus twilight.
At least that is what it ought to be, strives
to be- That is it's ideal 1t does not attain
it, of course; for an ideal attained is no
longer an ideal.
We criticize regular doctors, and poon-
pooh their pretensions (untll we get slch'

That is all it is. 1t is merely place Where

If it is worth while having medical pro-
fession at all it is worth while having place
where they can do their best.
That means that a city's hospitals are the
measure of the city's Intelligent regard ror

The enemies of the hospital are selfish
ness. callous indifference, ignorance, and SUI
perstition
The peanut-souled citizen who is we'll and
does not want to disturb his peace by think
ing about sickness, will not assist the hos
pital.
The takers, frauds, patent-medicine graft
ers, and other vultures that profit on the
mseries of their fellows, do not help hospi-
tails.
The faddists, monomaniacs, religio-philo-
sophie cranks, and all those who put their
peculiar superstitious obsession above their
reason do not favor hospitals,
Nllt every physician who has carefully pre-
pared himself for his life work, who has
studied what the wisest have learned before
him. who has learned at the feet of the most
skilful, who has sworn loyalty to truth and
seeks honestly to practice his art in way
to be Of the most benefit to men, every
physician in fine that wants to do his best,
wants a hospital, for that is the best of
places in which to do it.
And an intelligent and sane community
wants a hospital because it wants those who
are set apart to care for it's health, to do
good work, the best possible work, under the
best possible conditions

For a Prosperous Antumn

~PEAKING from abundance of informa-
ton and friendly solicitude, the Geor-
gia State Bureau of Markets advises
the planting of foodstuffs as the safest agri-
cultural investment now to be made. While
present prices on cotton are tempting, it says,
1.-the hazards against that crop are greatly
increased" Wherefore,
every farmer should weigh we'll the
possibilities. We believe every food crop
will bring fair prices. Plant corn, pea
nuts, velvet beans, field peas, sugar cane
and sorghum. Raise hogs and cattle.
So divide your crops that misfortune
to any one product will not seriously
affect your entire years work. 1t is
not too late to plant any of these crops.
