New Source Of Income on the Farm.
B. M. Drake in Newman Herald.


Next to the failure to provide sufficient
food and feed crops for the maintenance OF
our farns-a failure far too common IN our
icountry-the even more common failure to
provide any source OF income besides cotton
has gotten us into trouble 1t Is generally
admitted now that cotton is no longer a de-
pendable source OF income, and it is to be
hoped that we will not repeat the mistake
OF last year and provide no other source OF
income.
Among crops that can be depended on to
produce a cash income the peanut may De
mentioned first because it is adapted to more
general use than any other. 1t vii! require
less investment to get into the peanut Dusl,
mess than any other crop which offers equal
advantages. In the cotton seed oil mills we
have the machinery necessary tor its manu-
faCture and therefore the assurance OF
market The investment required tor picking
machinery is not large, and the net returns are
probably quite as good as Tor cotton.
No new machinery will be necessary for
planting, cultivation and harvesting OF the
crop. The expense of cultivation is much less
than with cotton and while the gross returns
are not so large the net returns are probably
quite as good as for cotton.
The sweet potato crop is a more profitable;
crop than either, but it is somewhat limited
by the necessity OF considerable investment
lin storage houses, and marketing conditions
are not so well adapted to the average farm
er's habits or needs However, if storage room
can be arranged for the sweet potato 1t IS
source of income which should not neg
leCt.
The now accessible market Tor sour cream
has the dairy cow as a source OF income, with
several strong recommendations. Provided we
have already raised some surplus iced this
Income may start at once and furnish key
to the problem of financing the farm; tor the
cream checks from one good COW, II the teed
has been made at home, will pay the expense
.of one p1ow At the same time the manure,
if properly cared for, will begin immediately
Ito reduce the fertilizer bill and will in a few
wears paw another dividend in increased pro-
duction of all crops. If you haven't any sur
plus feed now you should plan 1922 crops so
that as early as possible you will have enough
to take care of an additional cow.
Along with our sour cream business addl-
tional hogs and poultry should be added, to
use to the best advantage the skim milk. Both
hogs and poultry are always marketable, and
should aid considerable to the farm income.
By all means do, not complete your plans
Tor 1922 without providing for cash income
from some other source than cotton. If you
know of some source of income surer and bet
ter than those mentioned use it. II not, pro-
vide by some or all Of these means for the
cash YOU will have to have. Do not leave 1t
to the chance Of the boil Weevils caprice,
and do not put off the formation OF definite
cropping plan that will provide you an income.

Benedict XIV.
inves tnent

The death of Pope Benedict removes from
the vatican at Rome and from the activities
of the Catholic church personality that was
as much political as eccesiastic in the effect
of its strength upon world events. Benedict
XIV, until his election following the death OF
Plus the X, had been a modest, retiring
churchman, but when the sacred college thrust
upon him the papal responsibility he under
took to shoulder all of it and voluntarily to
increase the burden Of his task. Untirng and
unheeding, even when begged by his co-work-
ers to lessen his efforts, he threw all the
force at his command into a study of condi-
tions that resulted from the war in the hope
that he might be helpful in arriving at So
luton.
From the beginning OF the conflict Pope
Benedict tried to stop it. He made personal
appeals to the various rulers OF the warning
countries from time to time. From the vatican
came repeated papal notes calling upon the
Christian nations to cease their warfare. A
week after his coronation he made his first
effort to stop the war. 1t was unheeded. Again
in the same year he proposed Christmas
truce. Cannon thundered on Christmas in
stead. Then early in 1915 another appeal
went forth This was repeated in the sum-
ner of the same year. In March OF 1915 the
pope reiterated his prayer for peace, and
two months later asked President Wilson to
intervene as a peacemaker. In January OF
1917 the pope approved President Wilson's
peace note, and in August OF that year he
exhorted the belligerent rulers to end the war
for the sake of humanity
Benedictine XIV was pope whose activities
conferred upon improvement of conditions in
contemporary life He denounced immodesty
in women's dress. attacked socialism as the
dangerous doctrine" and named FIVE great
plaques that were threatening the spiritual
fabric of mankind These were the negation
of authority hatred among brothers, thirst
for pleasure disgust for work and torgettul-
ness of the supernatural objects OF life"

Fifty Years an Editor.

Our esteemed friend and neighbor, Hon.
H. NJ Mcintosh, OF the Albany Herald, has
just celebrated his seventeen birthday and
also the ifteth anniversary OF his entrance
into Georgia journalism
The Herald under the guiding hand OF Edi-
tor Mcintosh is something more than news
paper-it has become an institution. 1t has
witnessed and recorded and been a part of
the history of South Georgia, and has con-
tributed to the growth and development OF
this wonderful section as much as any other
one agency An account Of the growth OF the
Herald would also present the development
Of newspaper making of the last hall a CEN
fury Most OF the appliances then used in
the business were hand made, and it was
many wears before modern machinery was in
troduced. One OF the most interesting things to
be noticed about the business OF those early
days is the excellent quality OF the work done
and the care taken in the finished product OF
the press Taking into account the crude ma
chnery and primitive conditions the neWspa-
per then. as now, was in advance OF other
things OF the time Print paper was good
and the ink has retained its blackness up 70
the present Files OF those early times speak
well for standards aimed at in pioneer days
The Herald has always been in the fore
front among newspapers OF the state. It al
ways has been and is today newspaper OF
character 1t is sane, conservative, depend
able, substantial, and at the same time bright
and enterprising The editorshp OF Fl. NJ
Mcintosh, which has been extended by the
grace Of providence to half century's dura-
ton has given the Herald strength and dig
nifty To him and his associates in the publ
cation OF the paper we extend best wishes
for many more years of success and useful
ness.

Ford and Mussel Shoals.

Probably Mr. Ford would not be willing
to assume the Mussel Shoals undertaking if
he did not believe it would be a profitable
venture. A good many people seem to fear
that he might make some money out OF it,
and for that reason they are opposed to let
ting him have it. The News trusts, however,
that the matter will not be determined by
any such dog in the manger policy. 1t should
be the aim OF the government to dispose of
the Mussel Shoals plant to such advantage
as it can, but in such disposal it is not essen
ta1 nor would it be fair to deprive Mr.. Ford
of all advantage 1t ought to be possible for
the government to draft contract which will
be fair to itself as well as to Mr. Ford. This
business of hating Mr.. Ford can be carried
too far The Mussel Shoals project is ire
mendous big thing If Mr.. Ford gets it, or
anyone else gets it, it will require an i'm
mense investment OF capital and will in
volve an immense risk. Anyone who stands
ready in an adventure of the kind is to be
applauded and encouraged, and not discour-

A Mans Best Friend.

From the birmingham Age-Herald
Maybe he wasn't much OF dog, but maybe
Inc had the appealing look in his eyes most
dogs have when they are troubled and need
a friend This particular dog we are writing
about did not ask for help in vain.
Edwin Tuttle, jr., student at the Pittman,
IN. J., high school, saw one-eyed mongrel
frisking about on the thin ice which covered
a gravel pit. The dog broke through the ice
and could not get out. futile at first tried
to reach him by stretching fence rails on the
surface, but the ice was not thick enough to
bear his weight and he plunged into the cold
water, reaching shore with difficulty.
Then it was that futile showed the quail
ties which have made boys and dogs com
rades ever since that distant, prehistoric era
when the dog was domesticated and trohck-
ed about the cave dwellings OF our remote
ancestors. He took off his clothes and plung-
ed into the gravel pit. After half an hours
struggle he succeeded in breaking the ice
which separated the dog from the shore,

Postmaster General Hayes has informed the
chairman of the senate judiciary committee
that he is opposed to the enactment of the
bill to prohibit the publication OF betting
news in newspapers. Mr.. Hayes has observ-
ed very strong tendency of late in the di-
rection OF curtalment OF the freedom OF the
press, and he believes it is essential that such
tendency be checked The press is not with
ont censorships now, and they are sufficient.
1t would be the beginning OF a dangerous
experiment to impose the legal censorship
contemplated-it would. be the entering wedge

He First "Swatted'' the Fly.

The death at Asheville, n. c., OF DR.. Louis
Mccormick, city bacteriologist and one OF
the foremost scientists of the south, has been
announced. DIR. Mccormick has done extern
sive research work but he is chiefly known
as the first man in the United States to make
scientific fight against the common house
hv. He was ridiculed when he tostered his
first SIGHT against flies in Asheve, but his
thought spread to other cities and towns and
finally "Swat the Fly" became a slogan all
over the country His work in sanitation, par
ticularlv in reference to the fly, is recognized
as authority. The Asheville Times says OF
him: Or Mccormick was recognized as one
of the best informed men in the wide fields
OF natural science; he was man OF brains,
high ideals modesty and reserve. His wide
range Of knowledge in science at times was
a source OF surprise even to his most inti-
mate associates.
AS the Augusta Chronicle says 1t is now
generally recognized by the medical probes
sion everywhere that the common house fly
is one Of the greatest enemies Of health in
the world, and DR. Mccormick in arousing
the public to the danger cf allowing flies in
the house has doubtless saved countless lives,
and has been a valuable contribution to the
knowledge and practice of laws of sanitation
that are being more and more generally
known and observed with an ever lessening
death rate from communicable diseases as the

Rude Rural Rhymes
Old King Coal

This is the hungry furnace door that eats
up coal and calls for more. This is the coal
for eighteen bones so full of slate, SO full OF
stones, or other grades for twenty plunks,
but likewise full OF clinker chunks, that go
in through the furnace door and leave it
hungry as before These are the ashes dead
and white to be scraped out both morn and
night This is the bard in these hard times
who spends his dollars and his dimes, OBJ
tanned by writing Rural Rhymes, for bum
black diamonds long on slate, which sail in
toward the furnace CRATE and leave it still
insatiate. This is the shovel full OF hicks with
which the bard performs his tricks and puts
in many weary ticks; the poker too and exc
the shaker, which worry that old rhyming
faker till he says words nor right nor wise
for one who hopes that, when he dies, he'll
find in Peter kindly feelings and have an
end OF furnace dealings. BOB ADAMS.

of fanatics and extremists. The present liq-

A Passion to Amend.

Everyone who assumes to keep track of
the United States senate is aware of its pas
sion for amendments. This passion is COM
mented on in vein Of ironical humor by the
New York Worlds "Looker-on in Washing
tom He says that the habit of amending
treaties has become chronic in the senate
it has grown into passion that is Unsuitable.
1t plays no favortes- or demo-
cratic president it is all the same. Continuing,
the "Looker-on" says:
If the president no matter which one,
should incorporate the 18th chapter Of |
Corinthians into treaty and send it to the
senate there would be senators to object
to the three-power alliance OF faith hope
and charity and propose a reservation pro-
hbitng the president from offering charity,
having faith or giving hope unless the ad-
vice and consent Of the senate had been
previously obtained"
The senate has remarkable belief in its
own superiority. 1t always has better way,
or what it conceives to be a better way.
