Green Field Peas

~ GOD tidings for the country at large
[ as we'll as profitable news for the
Georgia farmer, come by way of the
Triton Gazette in report that our field
peas are being shipped green in hampers to
Northern and Eastern markets.
Green field peas belong to that rare group OF
blessings which inspire those enjoying them
to share with others. One no more would
think of boarding green field peas, precious
though they are, than he would think of
misering faith, hope and. charity. Green
field peas are one of those mundane delights
which the angels desire to look into. Fresh
from the dew of a morning patch, they are
worthy to be named with 'possum and vans
What more could one say?
Yet, there are regions Of even this en-
lightened land to which Georgia green field
peas are as unknown caviar to Hotten-
tots. May the missionary hampers go forth
in multiplying myriads

THE BEAUTY OF CRIME
BY DIR FRANK CRANE

Crime" said Rousseau, "is fascinating as
an abyss" j. J. Weiss scandalized Paris one
morning by saying of certain startling af-
, fair, ut is beautiful, beautiful crime"
There is an element of, truth in this. TO
read of a crime is to feel all those suppressed
forces and hayward desires in us appealed to;
we have often wondered what would happen
if we should let ourselves go.
There is something that stirs us in every
action where the soul defies prudence, which
is a necessary virtue, but small one. ~
The criminal feels he Is hero We feel
also that he is hero;' bad, vicious and wholly
reprehensible; but still he dared. t,q
Good critics have held that Antony and
Cleopatra is Shakes peare's greatest play. The
two were wild, outrageous, immoral creatures
but they made meat for good art. $50
And is not the greatest lure that draws
boys into violation of law, into deeds of reck-
lessness and shocking madness, but twisted
form of the desire for glory? The road to
real fame is long and hard; but any one can
become infamous easily enough. ves.
But one reason why note the beauty OF
any crime and perhaps the principal reason
is that it is unusual. The average crime ID
ugly.
The only thing that makes the occasional
crime beautiful is courage. But the average
crime is cOwardly, while being decent and
honest and good takes courage all the time,
The courage Of goodness is the courage
Of a brave soldier; the courage of a crime is
as the courage of desperate deserter. ssr3
Courage is so beautiful that we admire 1T
anywhere even in hell. ''T'
The trouble is that there Is very liftla
courage in hell.
No man has to fight to go to ruin, all that
he has to do is to slump and he just naturally
floats to ruin. If you are looking for courage
and plenty of it and for the beauty and glory
of it, you will find it among the intrepid
masses who are steadily battling to be good.

The S;1ver Lining

THE ever sagacous Triton Gazette rises to
rejoice that the boil weevil cant cut
short the crop of all-dayr sings, bis
meetings and chicken dinners" But If the
cotton despoiler ate chickens, wed feel like
giving up"
There is always balm in Gilead for him
who knows where and how to seek. In the
very soil which the Mexican pest dooms for
cotton production lie latent harvest-treasures
for those willing to dig and to think Geor-
gia is far richer in developed resources to-
day than when this invader first crept across
her borders; and many farmer who once
was enserfed to King Cotton Is now his own
master through diversihcation. The weak
lament adversities the wise use them.

The pending bill for this purpose proposes
only such regulations as are commonly rec

MY FAVORITE STORIES
BY Irwin Cobb

In the Pinenut mining region of Nevada
during the early nineties, rich gold-bearing
veins were discoyC ed in the foothills. Coin
cdent with this discovery came the develop
ment of placer claims in the beds of some
valley streams. There was tremendous
rush of prospectors from neighboring mining
towns, and Pinenut became the center of
much activity. Unfortunately, it proved to
be a superficial bonanza and petered out in
a short time. A few fanatics still fingered
on hoping that sharp pick in hopeful hands
would open a new Goconda at an unex-
pected moment.
AS Robert H. Davis tells the story, one of
the hangers on had the bad taste to die.
1t was the custom in new mining camps for
the District Recorder to perform the services
of the church and to lay to rest those who
expired with or without their boots on. The
ceremony was the same for both.
This particular funeral took place in the
dry bed of the creek. hole 6x2x3 had
been scooped from the gravel. The body re-
posed in rude coffin.
The Recorder from the Book of Common
Prayer, read the service in a solemn voice:
Eye brought nothing into this world and
We shall take nothing out"
= The coffin lowered by horny hands.
THE Lord giveth and the Lord taketh
away. Blessed be the name OF the Lord.
Dust to DUST
Reaching down, he gathered a handful of
dirt and gravel which sifted through his fin
gers and fell with rattaplan upon the
wooden box.
Ashes to ashes"
But instead of either dust or ashes the
CLEAN Of a nugget flashed back from the
coffin lid. There it lay, resurrected from the
eternal glacier while the lamented was be-
ing returned to the mould
Without a moments hesitation the Re-
corder dropped his prayer book jumped into
the grave, heaved the deceased out of the
property and exclaimed in loud voice:
Il claim everything seven hundred and
nifty feet north and south and six hundred
feet east and west. Everybody get off these
premsesi"
With that he pulled out two six-shooters
cleaned his estate of spectators and put up
his location notices without delay.
The interment took place the following day

QUIZ

@. How long have fox terriers been bred?
w. G. H.
A. The earliest authentic mention of the
terrier is by Dr.. Caius who wrote a treatise on
the dog before 1872. He enumerated among
the British dogs "the terrare," describing it
as hunter of the fox and badger. This
breed was what is now called the fox terrier.
Such dogs were bred to run the fox to earth,
but are now used as vermin destroyers about
stables and house pets.
Q. Why does the pitch change when a
photograph is running down? A. S. A.
A. The slower talking machine runs, the
lower is the number of sound vibrations. This
accounts for the lowering of pitch in a musiA
cal composition when the speed of a talkin g
machine is reduced.
Q. Is the expression "petered OUT proper
one? c.. C. G.
A. In the sense of having become exhaust
ed, the term is given in dictionaries. They do
not vouch for its usage, saying that it is col
lOQulal. The term has very definite mean
ing which no other words convey so readily
and it is quite possible that for this reason
the term will be recognized good English
Q. Please tell me how [ get some free
garden seeds. /. J.
A. The appropriation of 921 carried sum
for seeds for the year 1922. but the appropri-
alton of 1922 carried sum for 1923 and
after that the distribution of seeds will be
discontinued. We would suggest that you
write to the congressman representing your
district
Q. Is there such thing as an absolute
fluid? J. l.. w.
A. perfect fluid is an abstraction, like
the material particle or che rigid body, but
many of the ordinary fluids, like water alco-
hol, air and other gases, slightly Wis
cous that for many purposes they may be con-
sidered as perfect
Q. Where is the biggest electric sign in
the world, and how much does it cost to run
it's. o.
A. The Wrigley sign atop the Putnam
building, New York, is the largest and most
elaborate. There are 1855 lamps which
are burned at cost of $10S. 900 a year.
Q. What was the nearest point that Ger
many reach in its advance on Paris? I. NJ. G.

4 Far-F1ung Peril to Georgia,
and Ho1O to Avert 1t

IF any member of the Legislature, any
citizen, wants reasons for passage of the
pending bill to conserve the States wood
land wealth, he will find them as plentiful
an bIackberries in the current number OF
American Forestry" In fact-flled ar
ticle called Down in Georgia." that widely
read magazine points out that during the
last ten or fifteen years Georgias produc-
ton of lumber has declined fifty per cent,
entailing a loss of more than thirteen mil
lion dollars a year; that during the same
period her sawmils have decreased by thir-
teen hundred, or siXty-ive per cent of the
number operating in 1909; and that her ma
val stores industry, once source of i'm
mense prosperity, has dwindled to puny
twenty-five per cent of it's erstwhile produc
tive vigor.
Noting that of the States twenty million
acres of forest land all have been cut over
save one million or thereabout, the magazine
declares: 1.-THE extent to which these con-
ditions have affected wage-earners is tndi-
Gated by the fact that in 1900 the primary
forest industries of the state supplied en-
ployment to thirty-eight thousand eight hun
bred and twenty-seven persons, and in 1920
to only twenty-three thousand one hundred
and forty-one-a decrease of forty per cent"
yet graver side of the situation is this:
"If the nineteen million acres of cut-over
orio 1ftIr roll
the future would hold out greater promise;
but the area of land in farms has actually
declined in the last ten years" IL produc-
ton thus be left to shrink and fail, what
will be the hope of prosperity for years on
coming?
Serious as they are these misfortunes can
be retrieved in good measure If the Legisla-
ture will but say the word that will set the
willing forces of conservation to work. One
of the worlds ablest foresters, Mr.. Austin
Cary, recently declared: MY own belief is
and that has behind it thirty years of ex-
perience, during which I have worked in
every timber region of the United States and
the forests of several European countries
that probably no region on earth has great
er natural facilities for producing timber
values than the district centering In the
Okefenokee swamp. Longleaf and, par
ticuIarIy, slash pine characterize this region
the latter, in my opinion, species which
will be recognized in the future for the
combination of utility in it's products for its
readiness of reproduction and rapdity of
growth, as one of the most valuable of the
entire earth's trees To this might be added
the testimony of many another authority
who has been impressed with the richness
and diversity of Georgia's resources, both in
soil and In climate, for the growth of val
uable forests. The Legislature is called upon
by every consideration of the common veal
