PERMANENT PASTURE
IN GA. IS POSSIBLE
State College of Agriculture
Finds Experiment Here Is
Feasible One

ATHENS, June 21.-Practical
EXPERIMENTAL work by the depart
ment Of agrOnomy, State College
of Agriculture, Athens, in various
sections of the state has establish
ed the fact that permanent sum-
mer pastures for live stock are pos
sible. The experimental work
has been conducted over a period
of years and where pastures for
merry dried up in July and fur
nished little feed during the sum
mer and fall months, now live
stock may be carried through these
months in green fields.
The state college became inter
ested in the work about five years
ago A bulletin just issued by the
college recites that carpet grass
Dallas grass and lespedeza are
much superior to the native grass.
The pasture with these grasses
planted gives seven to nine
months satisfactory grazing dur
ing the year. Twelve months
grazing can be had by using vel
vet beans and peanuts as a sup
plement. If Georgia is to have
successful packing plants, it must
have available a year-round supply
of live stock.
The bulletin issued by the state
college says in part:
AT the present time, more pas
lures are needed to furnish spring
and summer grazing to the cattle
and hogs carried over the winter
on velvet beans and peanuts.
-Four years experience of pas
ture building in South Georgia in
dicates that pastures Of carpet
grass, Dallas grass and lespedeza
on moist lands are thoroughly prac-
teal for that section. These three
plants furnish green tender graz
ing during the spring, summer and
fall and are not injured by tramp
ing or close cropping. A pasture

CHARLIE CHAPLIN AND
"BUCK" JONES AT THE
RYLANDER SATURDAY

A program calculated to arouse
great interest among lovers of
comedy and action pictures is
booked for the Rylander Theatre
on Saturday. 1t is composed of
Charlie Chaplin in Easy Street"
and "3usk" Jones in The Foot
light Ranger"
In Easy Street, Chaplin plays
the role of a policeman, and his
antics in trying to round up
gang in the toughest part of the
city are extremely funny. Easy
Street. is enc of the comedies
made by Chaplin sew raj years ago
and are being reissued as Chaplin
Classics, they playing in the larg-
est theatres in the country and are
proving just as popular as when
first released.
Imagine strange man wander
ing backstage during the rehearsal
of musical comedy. The grimaces
of the chorus, the mocking of the
comedian, the unaccustomed lights
the loud voice of the stage mana
ger as he orders the newcomer
thrown, from the theatre. These
are typical of the reception given
too Buck Jones in THE Footlight
Ranger"
In addition to the element of ad-
venture the story has several
touches of comedy and romance
and the climax saves a startling
surprise for the audience.

The National Health Council, com
bination of the thirteen greatest med
ical and public health organizations
in America, has announced that dur
ing the twelve months beginning on
July 4, it will endeavor to persuade
every person in the United States to
take a peep into the future to see
what the condition of his health will
be in a few years hence. Anybody
who does not like what he sees will
be told what he can do to better it.
For ages men have sought to probe
the future by reading the stars, con-
sulting the oracles, visiting fortune
tellers and mediums, and even by
watching the grounding and reading
the goosebone. But always, in all
ages, when men sought information
concerning the future they coupled
their request with the question, I'M
spoken, but always understood: Will
be there to see the prophecy full
filed?
1t is not so difficult as it may seem
to predict how long man will re-
tain his health or will live. His ex-
pectation of life is particularly easy
to estimate: Subtract his age from
80; and if his health is good he will
probobly live for more than two-thirds
of the difference.
But is his health good? Is your
health good? That is the question the
National Health Council wants to as
certain.
A life insurance company can ans
wer the question pretty accurately.
Unless it does so it is bound to go
bankrupt sooner or later. So it finds
out the sort of work you are doing, in
quires into your family history, and
wants to be told what illnesses you
have had. Finally it examines you
physically, not merely to find out if
you are sound at the moment but if
you have any unsupported disease
whose existence neither you nor any
one else could know from ordinary
observation 1t considers also whether
your lungs, heart, stomach, etc., are
able to prevent germ diseases from

Thou shalt not bear false witness.
Thou shalt not lie. Thou shalt not
misrepresent thy neighbor. Thou
shalt not convey slanderous gossip
and reports.
The man who whispers about his
neighbOr is the most contemplate
cur on earth. He is coward, q cur,
and a villain Of the deepest dye. The
man who gossips is a natural born,
constitutional liar, and Is meaner,
blacker and nearer the condition OF
hell than any criminal about whom
he may be gossiping. No gossip
should ever be believed. A gossip
ping woman Is the biggest liar on
Gods earth, and a gossipping man
Is burning torch from hell. Any
one who would believe either OF
them Is such an Infamous fool that
the board Of alienists ought to send
him to the asylum at once.
If one is compelled to speak In
uncomplimentary terms OF another.
he should go to that individual and
make his remarks to him personally
and directly. He should never speak
about him behind his back unless he
can speak In complimentary and
commendatory terms.
The idle gossiper has done moro
to wreck the peace and happiness
Of good people and bring shame and
sorrow to society than any other
brute that has ever lived. He ID
more filthy than the Shiny snake.
He Is more dangerous than the pol
sonous asp. He Is more hellish than
Satan wants him to be.
Thousands Of innocent girls and
pure women have been injured by
the tongue Of the gossip, by the
mouth OF the slanderer, by the words

getting foothold in your body or to
drive them out after they have gotten
a foothold.
Most persons think of death as tho
coming from one of the great diseases
typhoid fever, for instance. But it
isn't these that do the real damage.
It's the hidden things that weaken
your organs without your knowing it
till the test comes and you find your
self defenseless. 1t is for instance the
abscess at the root of a, tooth that
manufactures the pus that Injuries the
kidneys; the infected tonsils that dis
charge a pus that causes rheumatism;
the little lump beneath the skin that
some day changes into deadly can
Ger; the work that strains ones
weakest spot till it gives way, when
another sort of work would do no
harm.
All these things can be and will be
investigated under the Councils plan
by a reputable physician-by each
persons family doctor, if he likes.
The Council hopes that at least
10,OO0,000 persons, say 10000 day
will have themselves examined dur
ing the twelve months. 1t is big job
and to make it easier the Council sug
gests that every one should be exam
ined on his own birthday even those
born on. February 20, for 1924 is lear
year.
This national health examination
campaign will unquestionably marked
ly lengthen the average human life
It's span in the United States was
heightened from Al to Sc years during
the so years that elapsed between
1870 to 1920; and it will be lengthen
ed during the next so years by at
least 20 years more according to the
American Public Health Association,
which certainly ought to know what
it is saying. This means that fifty
years from now the average man will
live to be rs instead of Sc, as at the
present. and that he will feel spry
enough to enjoy life at 76and for a
good deal longer
