THE ATLANTA TRI.wEEKLY JOURNAL

i hopeless our already grave problem of re-
| forestation.
These facts lend especial interest to ar
article in the current number of the Agri-
cultural Bulletin, entitled, do Not Burn the
Woods Observing that some owners and
tenants are accustomed to "burn off, their
forest lands every autumn in the belief that
this will make better grazing for live stock
the Bulletin goes on to show the fallacy of
that idea and the costliness of that practice
eff it were true that the burning stimu-
lated the growth of grass" says this au-
thority, "still it would be of doubtful value
on account of the great damage done to the
timber, especially the small trees. But
demonstrations carried on in burned and I'M
burned areas do not indicate that we get
more or better grazing where the timber
land is burned. 1t may be that for few
weeks of the grazing season, after land has
been burned, we do have more tender grass,
that the cattle can get to it better and that
the land had not been burned. However,
considering the season as a whole, much
more and much better grazing can be OBJ
tanned on the unburned areas. Experiments
conducted in cut-over and burned land in
Mississippi show that an unburned area has
been capable of carrying cattle at the rate
n RI nrtU nd
these cattle have made seasonal gains of
ninetyone pounds. These were native cat
tie, and we must understand that this was
in pines and not in pasture. When we con-
slider the grade of cattle and the conditions
this is very good gain Cattle on burned
areas, one head to ten acres, showed a sea-
sonal gain of only twenty-one pounds. 1t
was further shown in this demonstration
that the cattle on the burned areas made
grazing season. after that the gains fell off
and the cattle even lost a great deal of the
gains made during the first two months
1t is natural to suppose, if we stop and con-
slider this matter that we would have much
better conditions from growing grass where
the annual burning did not take place. We
would have more seed on the ground and
we would have more humus and rotting
matter to support grass. Also, it is an es-
tablished fact that certain grasses which are
highly desirable as grazing crops. for in
stance, carpet grass, will not grow under
conditions of annual burning. Another rea-
the south is for boil weevil control This
is another fallacy. The burning of the
not even diminish the supply of over-win-
tered weevils to any great extent, and even
expense to the present and future growth Of
the timber that it is very bad policy to
ern states, who have made many years of
advocate burning of the woods"
of these words will find their way, let us
hope, into every countryside where the cost
tains. Public interest requires that this
practice cease; and, once the facts are I'M
derstood, individual intelligence will do the
rest.

FASHION
BY DIR. Frank Crane

A well be dead. you say, as out of the
n fashion? Not at all. To be in the
- - fashion is death
Fashion is but another name for the ex-
tincton Of personality. 1t is in conformity
that we gain a bit of the world and lose our
own soul.
You are dressed in perfect style from your
hat to your polished boots. Your gown is
a dream. Your gloves exquisite Your
hair is made up precisely it ought to be.
You look very charming in your faultless
attire. But you dead. You are all bor-
rowed. Nothing of you is left. For not one
thing, whether lingerie or corsets, hatpins
or brooch, have you chosen in order to ex-
press yourself; you have selected under the
imperious fear of others. Every stitch on
you is cowardice; every ornament a badge
Of slavery. You are "a rag and bone and
a hank of hair" You are no soul.
And not only your clothing but your
mental and moral equipment is nothing but
prison garb.
Your notions Of art are. only what the
critics who are most in vogue say. You
never looked at picture with your own
eyes in your life. You never dared enter
tain taste without looking at your master
-fashion-as a dog looks at his master
Your ideas of politics are secondhand. All
you know is to belong to some party that is
composed of your kind of people. Original,
independent thinkers you regard as if they
were some sort of horned toad.
You don't know what the world is. To
you it is bounded by the limits of your set.
To cease to be acquainted with the Thing
umbobs and to be no more invited to the
Thingumsnivers, would mean to you TO drop
off the planet. The myriads of humankind
swirl about you an ocean; you in the
midst of them drop Of grease.
All the religion you have is what some
body handed you. 1t was coated pill and
you swallowed it whole. You have nsvsr
grappled hand to hand with mystery, pain,
or God. When these come your way you
run to cover. And in your circle they make
a speciality of covers.

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY

And Jesus sat oper against the treasury,
and behold how the people cast money
into the treasury; and many that we're
rich cast in much. And there came GER
tain poor widow, and she threw in tho
mites, which make a farthing. And He
called unto Him His disciples, and saith
unto them: "Verily, I say unto you that
this poor widow hath cast more in than
all they who hare cast into the treasury;
for all they did cast in Of their abun-
dance, but she of her want did cast in
all that she had, even all her living
