Starting a Cattle Business in Mid.
flle GEORGIA
BY DIR. ANDREW M. SOULE

Starting a Cattle Business in Mid
die Georgia
H. c. X, Atlanta, Ga,
writes: 1t is my intention to
engage in the raising of stock
on, a small scale in Taliaferro
county, and L hope you can
give me some practical Sugges-
tons. / have a Jersey bull but
am thinking of selling him and
buying a pure-bred bull of
beef breed. What do you think
of the Duroc-Jersey strain of
hogsT What are the posSibili-
ties of sheep raising in this
section? My intention is to
start in small way and build
up as l go.
There is no reason why live stock
farming should not be conducted on
satisfactory basis in Taliaferro
county. Before one can hope to
make any money out of an enter
prise of this character, it is neceS-
sary to do two things. First, to
establish some pastures, and sec
ond, to raise the greater part of
the food necessary to maintain the
stock on a satisfactory basis. The
man who has his corncrib in some
other state will not succeed with
the live stock problem in Georgia.
There is more demand and a bet
ter market probably for dairy prod
ucts in Georgia than for beef prod
ucts at this time. in other words.
l believe the margin of profit to be
made from a dairy enterprise is
greater than that from beef en-
terprise. OF course, one will have
to give great deal more labor and
attention to the dairy business than
to the beef business. A dairy in
dustry, unless properly supervised
and directed, will naturally fail, but
as a means of obtaining an imme
date and profitable income, L be-
lieye- it offers our farmers an eX-
cellent avenue for winning a COM
potency. Where one has much
rough, wild land Wei set in Ber-
nuda grass. beef animals can be
raised at comparatively small cost.
They will naturally gather a good
deal of the food they need out-of-
doors for about nine months of the
year. If they are to be finished off
satisfactorily for market, it is de-
'sirahle to build a silo and feed them
about four months on silage, pea
nut meal or cottonseed meal before
they are slaughtered. OF course
silo is an essential adjunct on any
dairy farm.
=. a good beef bull will improve
the grade and character of the
progeny derived from Your mixed
Jersey COWS 1t will take two or
three generations. however, to Sc
cure a satisfactory type of beef ami
mails on the basis of the procedure
you propose to follow. Pure-bred
beef bulls were used to build up the
native cattle of Texas with great
success. 1t took time to accomplish
IL. but. in the end. the results justi-
fled the expenCe. time and labor in

THREE ASPECTS OF ONE LIE
Thou wilt show me the path
of life-Psalm 1911.
There are three ways in which
we may look t our life, depend
ing upon the point OF view
from which we regard human
existence.
When we think Of it as a
work, the question is
What do we desire to accom-
plish?"
When we think of it as a
growth, a development, a per-
sonal unfolding. the question is:
What do we desire to be-
Gomez"
When we think Of it as an ex-
perience, a destiny, the question
is:
What do we desire to be-
come of us?"
Do not imagine for an instant
that these questions can be
really separated.
They are interviewer.
They cross each other from
end to end of the web OF life.
The answer to one question
determines the answer to the
others.
We cannot divide our work
from ourselves nor isolate our
future from our qualities.
A ship might as well try to
sail north with her jib, and east
with her foresail. and south
with her mainsail as q man to
go one way in conduct and an
other way in character. and an
other way in destiny.
What we do belongs to what
we are and what we are is what
becomes of us.

beef breed which has all the merits
desired, but for Georgia conditions,
we would not hesitate 10 employ a
good Hereford or Shorthorn sire.
The Duroc-Jersey is an excellent
strain of hogs, we think one Of the
best adapted to Georgia. Some
sheep can be raised On practically
every farm. provided you will erect
a shelter in which they can be kept
at night. Otherwise, they will be
destroyed by dogs. We have a good
deal of trouble with parasites in
sheep in Georgia, but less difficulty
will be experienced if the grazing
grounds are frequently changed and
the foundation stock purchased in
the north Georgia mountains rather
than in the coastal plains area of
the state. Spring LAMBS should
prove profitable. To this end, the
ewes should be mated in November
and December. Plenty of grazing,
such as the winter cereals may be
made to provide should be made
available. A section of land devoted
to alfalfa will provide fine food for
them during the early fall and win
ter. Native ewes crossed with pure
bred rams will probably enable you
TO get into the sheep business on
the most economic and satisfactory
basis.
Removing Warts From Mule
h. c., Bowersville. Ga. writes:
I wish remedy for curing
warts on i mule. | have been
using white arsenic and hog
lard. and this has caused the
wart to become swollen and
sore.
There are several ways of treat
ing warts. The plan you have been
following is calculated to irritate a
growth of this character and might
produce unhappy results if persisted
in too long. We suggest that you
proceed as follows: Remove the
wart by a knife. When this is
done there will be considerable
bleeding. Therefore, the cut should
be scared with a hot iron. This
not only affords the wound prOtec-
ton, but stops the bleeding. An
other simple but effective remedy is
to tie string firmly around the
base of the wart. 1t may be neces
saty to tighten it from time to
time. The wart, however, will soon
slough off. The best time to treat
warts is as soon as they form and
not leave them TO become large and
deep seated.
If you do not wish to use the
knife or the string, you can use
acids for the removal of warts. The
best thing to use for this purpose
is acetic acid 1t should De applied
drop by drop with a medicine drop
per until the wart is thoroughly
softened and saturated. This treat
ment should cause the wart to
come off in a period Of ten days.
If it has not been removed by the
roots, another application orr treat
ment should be given. We have
used this method of procedure in
handling warts very atisfactorily.

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

Of mind is justified by the looks of
: most women.
From time immemorial a. woman 5
hair has been her glory. Poets have
sung it, artists have painted it
| lovers have treasured it. More than
that, woman's hair has been the
most effective weapon in her little
box OF tricks. Lovely hair atoned
| for lack of complexion and made up
| for a pug nose and a fish mouth.
| Moreover, with plenty of hair, a
woman can camouflage almost any
defect of her face. If her face is
too narrow she can puff out her
hair at the SIDES and widen it. If
her face is too wide and short, she
can pile her hair high and lenSthen
it. II she has a high and knobby
forehead she can bring her hair
down and hide it. If her face is
hard and stern she can soften it
with waving locks. But with bob
bed hair she can only look like a
Circassian freak in a side show
when it's got a fresh curl, and like
a drowned rat when the curl is out
and it hangs in limp tails.
A woman who throws awty the
advantage pretty hair gives her
throws away her best bet.
But what's the good of discussing
hobbed hair when it is no longer in
fashion? We might as well talk
about knee length skirts. We are
wearing EN- long this season.

Dear Miss Dix: Can a dainty, re.
fined woman continue loving her
husband who believes that bathing
oftener than once a fortnight is
harmful because it deprives the skin
of it's natural oil, and who is other
wise sloppy and untidy?
DIsGUsTED WIFE.
Answer: Good heavens, no. The
manifest duty Of a wife under such
conditions is to turn the hose on
1.-The very imperfect ablutioner," Hs
they used to say in the old Gilbert
and Sullivan opera.
Cleanliness is next to goodness,
especially in matrimony, and no man
can hope to retain his wife's affec-
ton who is not on intimate terms
with the bathtub.
1t is curious that men, who lay
stress on a woman keeping herself
sp.ck and span, so often take liber-
ties with their own appearance. Any
man feels that he is justified in leav-
ing woman who comes to the table
in curlpapers, and with cold cream
on her face, and who slOps around
the house in a dirty kimono and
down at.the- bedroom slippers.
And l think he's right.
Slouchiness should be a recognize
ed cause for divorce. No man should
be bound to endure a wife who is
as hard on the eyes as dirty, un-
tidy woman is.
But why do men never consider
how repulsiVe they are to their
wives with A three days stubble of
beard on their faces, and when they
lounge around the house in rum
pied dirty shirts and dirty collars
and baggy trousers.
Women care a hundred les
more for appearance than men do,
and by this token a slovenly man is
that many more times an .eyesore
to his wife than she could possibly
be to him. Womans love is very
robust thing and it will stand many
vicissitudes, but it won't survive
lack Of water, and a clothes-b brush,
and a pressing iron.
