America, for whom on Bonded knees

father might give to their feet those
paths of idealisms and Christians

Would You or Would You Not?
If you had been taught to love
the constitution Of your nation, to
aspect her laws and regard those
authorities set for their enforcement
as too noble for purchase and too
courageous for intimidation; and you
should look about you and ind a
storm cloud of anarchy to right and

boast of having purchased the very
officers set for the safety Of your
community, say friend, what would
you do? Would you rise up and
whet your sword and swear by all the
boldness God had ever given your
heart that such forces must be
driven back?
Would You or Would You Not?
If you from childhood had been
taught the glorious truths of Prot

courageously those Protestant martyrs

hemp that they might give to America

Narcotic Drugs


Since the ratification of the
Eighteenth amendment by more
than three-fourths of the forty
eight states there has been fearful
friction with bootleggers and rum
runners. Those who were accus-
toned to the use of intoxicants
turned to narcotics as a remedy
for this restless craving for slim
ulantS and where invalidS had
been getting and using liquors for
this reason, the next thing was a
turning towards narcotic drugs
particularly opiates-to quiet pain
and to forget their troubles in
sleep thus produced.
These two things, namely liquor
drinking and opium using. had long
been affinities. They puller togeth-
er, SO to speak, and the confusion
became worse COMPOUNDED when one
was taken and the other left. This
leaving" was of short continuance.
The narcotics became frantic for
drugs, and thus the Harrison act
became law.
AS it appears to me, the liquor
habit is the lesser of these two
great evils, which seem to run in
couples and both drag down the
mental and moral status of the
victims. The two wherever COM
bined destroy only the quicker. They
are well-known evils and dangerous
to everybody. This situation has
been acute for some time, sand
growing continually worse all the
time The chief prohibition agent
has publicly stated that his allot-
ted force can not cope with the
violators of the 18th amendment
in Georgia.
The United States government is
being perplexed and fearfully him
dered in the attempted enforcement
of the narcotic act. I 1veard of a
doctor who has been discovered, who
sold narcotic prescriptions at
dollar each (the prescriptions car
rying the proof and handed out to
the patients, without hindrance up
on application, and in one month
1000 of these prescriptions were
gathered from a few drug stores
in one Georgia city. How many
other doctors carry on this illicit
trade may be guessed at, but have
not been, as yet, exposed. This man
made easy money.
Within the past week another doc
tor in another Georgia city has been
arrested and put in Jail for such viQ-
lations of the narcotic act. One such
doctor in a big town or a little town
could soon collect a fortune by a
stroke of a pen, SO to speak.
His capture was made possible be-
cause he was a narcotic himself. He
gave himself away when his mentai
acumen was blunted by opiates. Both
these men will be convicted and pun
ished, but there is such craze for

The Self. Sustaining Farm

Can our farms be made self-sus
tanning? Surely they can. Is this
the wise policy for us to pursue
Undoubtedly. How should we pro
coed to make the farm self-sustain
Ing? BY dividing the land into ap'
propriate areas and instituting a
definite cropping system that will
enable the land owner to provide all
the food needed for his family and
for the maintenance of reasonable
amount of livestock. Does this mean
that cotton production should be
abandoned? Not at all. 1t simply
means that it should be relegated
to its proper place in the system OF
agriculture which providential causes
are now forcing us to adopt.
The reasons why changes must be
made and the plans through which
we can hope to encompass the
weevil are succinctly set forth in
this article. The facts presented
have been gathered together and CO.
Ordinated as the result of many OBJ
servations made by the various rep
resentatives of the Georgia State
Gollege of Agriculture. These con-
el1sions have not been suddenly
Reached, but are based on a thor
ough study of the subject. 1t is
said that the average business man
who succeeds out-thinks his COM
petitors. In other words, he is par
ticularly forehanded. He studies the
future, and tries to anticipate the
conditions which will pertain one
year, two years or even ten years
in advance. We must do the same
thing with regard to our farm OPP
erations. We can no longer put off
the inevitable changes which the
arrival of the boil weevil now makes
fundamental.
Our farming operations in the flu
tpre must be based on the idea that
the land owner will make himself
self-sustaining as to supplies OF 1000
for his family and his livestock; that
he will always be producing sur
plus of the things needed for the
proper maintenance of our urban
uopulation. And while he will con-
tinue to make cotton his chief money
crop. it will become his servant. ana
not his master as it has been all too
frequently in the past.
bThose land owners who give proper
attention and consideration to the
suggestions made in the paragraphs
which follow can assuredly place
b their farming operations on a SELL
sustaining basis in 1923.
SThe ravages of the bell weevll are
now being felt throughout the entire
state. Systems of farming almost
as old as the state itself have been
completely upset. A good per cent
of the farmers in the southern part
of the state have already become
fairly we'll adjusted, but the north
EN- part of the state is far from
satisfactory readjustment. A begin
ring has been made, but many farm
ers have not been able to organize
their farms on a basis that would
give them a satisfactory income.
It is must easier to reorganize the
one-family farm to meet the new
conditions than for the plantations.
On the one-family farm the owner
has more intimate control OF the
labor and expenditures than the
plantation owner. There is a per

old Mother Nature.

On the feeding shelf which he had
fastened to a window sill of his
house, Farmer Browns Boy had put
some raw peanuts. At first he put
out just a few to see if any of his
feathered friends would eat them.
He didn't have long to wait to FIND
out. Yank, Yank the Nuthatch was
the first to discover them. He
promptly seized one and away he
flew with it over to a tree in the
Old Orchard. There he wedged it
in a crotch, and then with his sharp
bill opened it and eagerly ate the
nut meats.
Sammy Jay, whose sharp eyes
miss little that is going on, saw
Yank Yank fly from that shelf and
watched him open that peanut. He
saw how much Yank Yank enjoyed
what he had found.
"That was a queer think Yank
Yank had" said Sammy. II wonder
what it was. I must find out about
that. Yes, sir, must find out about
that"
He waited until Yank Yank flew
back to the window shelf for an.
other peanut. Then Sammy hurried
over to the crotch in the apple tree
where Yank Yank had opened the
first peanut. OF course all he found
were pieces of shell. He picked up
one to see if it was good to eat, but
promptly decided it wasn't. "Yank
Yank pecked at that thing as if he
were opening it, thought Sammy:
''These pieces of queer, dry stuff
must be pieces of the covering.
There must have been something
good inside. I think I'll visit that
shelf myself"
So Sammy flew over where he
could look down on that feeding
shelf. He had never been on that
shelf because he had found plenty
to eat on the shelves in the Old
Orchard. 1t didn't take two sec
