GOLD

This is news to most people:
Gold is sometimes prescribed by
physicians as medicine. It's taken
in certain kinds of dependency
where the patient is on the border
line Of suicidal tendencies.
A few doses Of "arum metalli-
cum (gold), properly administered
by doctor, often make the melan-
choly person cheerful and full of
pep, even optimistic.
The coveted yollow metal has sim.
lar powers, received externally. Its
possession or loss sways human emo
tons as much as friendship and
love.

CROWDED

Japan is encouraging emigration
of her people to Brazil. It's reported
she'll pay their travelling expenses
and give them a present Of 200 yen
apiece when they depart.
Paying citizens to leave a country
is something new. The orient Is
over-populated. It's an ancient STU
alton, not new. And it's aggravated
by the worldwide rise in standard
Of living, which has a tendency to
make an acre Of land support fewer
people.
Improved industrial and agricul-
tural methods and devices will never
be able to keep pace with the cray
ing for still better living standards,

CANNING AS PART OF The
FRUIT SELLING PROBLEM.

Georgia raises fruit Of excel
lent quality. But too little Of
what we raise is canned
Georgia should, in'the natural
course of events, raise a great
deal more fruit than she pro-
duces now. And she should can
large part of these future ca
large crops.
We all know what has hap
pened this year in the heart of
the Georgia fruit belt.
The weak point in the selling
end of the Georgia peach in
dustry is the inadequacy of can
ming facilities.
What would be the value Of
that part of the Georgia peach
crop of 1924 already lost if it
had been possible to can it? Had
there been canncries available
for handling the entire surplus
of the crop-a surplus either CIV
en- away, dumped into streams,
fed to hogs or sold in glutted
markets for less than the cost of
picking, packing and shipping,
what would be its value when
fed to the markets during the
next twelve months? It is true
that a small part of the Georgia
peach crop is canned every year,
but nothing like enough to care
for the surplus.
As matters now stand the
Georgia peach grower must sell
his crop when it ripens or no.
sell it at ali. This year it has
been a particularly heavy loss,
but the same thing may happen
any year-every year, in fact
for the Georgia crop viii hardly
grow less. 1t should grow great
er, for there is room for expan-
sion.
Georgia cans entirely too little
Of the fruit and vegetable crops
she produces. Canning means
not only saving a crops surplus,
but it means also protecting the
market for fresh fruit, thereby
assuring better prices for that
which is shipped.
We still have a lot TO learn
from California, which sells
peach-growing Georgia most Of
every man ambitious to go
ahead.
The answer is that oppor-
tunity is not found, it is made.
1t isn't the town or the job
that counts, it's the man.
Natural ability, and luck may
enter into the matter to con-
extent. But that does
not alter the fact that opportu-
nifty is everywhere - for the
right man,

Real mothers, with heart and
mind and soul fixed upon the
very practical ideal Of keeping
the family happy, are the need
Of the world today, and not the
reform organizations shat are
seeking by various methods,
mostly of force, to make the
world better. We cannot force
people to be happy. But by the
adoption of the proper methods
we may lead them into a quality
of happiness from which they
will not try to escape.
The mother, therefore, who
takes the proper care of her
household, who rears her chill
dren in the light Of sunshine and
contcntment, whose love shields
them from the snares and the
pitfalls Of the world, need have
little if any fear that her work
viii be failure.-Columbus

that sufficient ships are available TO

Shippers and industrial and COM

protested against encroachment of

one of the chief obstacles lay in an
inadequacy of ships. The Interstate
