Not Wanted in Georgia.

Editor Dawson News: Thou shalt make
no alliance with them. Exodus.
Our friend Anderson, of the Macon Iee-
graph is on the same trail that resulted In
civil war from 186l-65. To get labor he
would break down our immigration law, our
constitution, and put aside our dearly bought
experience by bringing III Japanese labor
to supplant the blessing God is giving US
by moving the negro hence. We don't need
him; we can't amaagate with him, nor he
with us. Anderson says he won't want to do
So Yet no man since Adam has seen
lower race that did not long for amalgamation
with the white-the highest race. 1t really
brought about the Noahic hood-tO wipe out
mixed races-and later it is written, And
God set the bounds OF the nations according
to the number of the children of Israel. This
did not mean Jews only, for Paul was not al
lowed to preach the Christ, but was called
to Europe. See Acts XVI: e through the 10th
verse and note too, that until the 18th cen
fury nothing but spasmodc efforts had been
made to violate the commandment given
Paul-not to Asia, not to lower races, but to
the whites represented by Europe, for none
but whites lived at that time in Europe The
inhabitants of Europe, the scandinavian races,
the Poles and even the Slavic whites OF Rus

worlds, for the sake OF brown workers. We

Pacific states have shown us the strife Great
ed by bringing them in. So beware of An
derson's mongrel idea OF a landed aristrocracy,
as was in the southern states from 1900 to
1866, which created an oligharcy that we still
have to fight and which is shown when one Of
our own degenerates commits a crime by
saying both parties to the tragedy were of

the trial for the crime will take place imme-
diately and it is hoped the extreme penalty

Should Plant Trees.

The Cordee Dispatch, in a recent issue,
discusses an important matter to Georgia
a matter concerning which there is surprls-
ing indifference on the part OF the people OF
the state This editorial expression, de-
clares our Cordele contemporary, may not
get to the mind Of land owner where it
ought to strike-where it can help save the
Young pine trees That we cannot help, but
we want to remain in the fight to save the
Young pine trees in south Georgia. There
is a vast mine of wealth-more than III all
that the automobile industry could bring us
There is more wealth in saving the young
pine tree already on the way than there IS
in any one industry we could foster and de-
velop When we say young pines are
worth more to us than the automobile indus
try can ever be we speak advisedly. The
Dispatch concludes with the truthful and
timely assertion that "our wealth in young
pine trees cannot be taken away from us
1t will remain if we will only protect it from
the fires we start in careless way.
We need new tree planting dispensation
in Georgia Trees are a profitable crop. VI
course it requires time to mature the crop,
but it will be worth the time and labor to
produce it. Timber has nearly all disappeared
from Georgia, and in few years the man
with trees to sell will be rich.

From the Savannah Press.

Mr.. A. O. Murphy, OF GAINESVILLE, has not
left the farming field in spite OF the TACT that
he lives in progressive city surrounded by
his own happy family. He thinks that the
farmer does not need guardianship or chap
eroning He is not looking for paternalisml
but realizes that it is up to the farmer indl-
vidually to make good.
Mr.. Murphy, who writes a very interesting
communication to the Macon Telegraph, be-
lieves that most Of the propaganda as to what
the farmer should or should not do comes
from lawyers, bankers and politicians and
these men generally don't practice what they
preach. They don't spend their own money
demonstrating the soundness OF their advice.
The farmer wants a square deal in Legislation
and finance, and he can take care OF himself
This "babying" the farmer is nauseating and
all wrong.
Give US constructive legislation and less OF
ficeholders good roads, adequate school ia
cilites and less talk and demagoguery and we
will come to the front and take care OF our
selves. Let our would-be guardians prove the
faith that is in them by bringing their talents
and ideas to the development of the hidden
agricultural resources of our state instead OF
sinking their money in non-taxable securities,
and we will see the south blossom as never
before

Think, Driver, Think. "

An intensive campaign, wider in scope than
ever before attempted, will be conducted this
year BY the railroads to reduce the number OF
grade crossing accidents. 1t will be conduct
ed through railway associations. The cam
paign will begin on June lst and continue
until September 30th the season of the heav-
lest motor traffic In this period the railroads
hope to bring about marked decrease COM
pared with previous years, in the number OF
fatalities and injuries at highway crossings.
AS a result of the campaign conducted last
year there was an actual reduction from June
1st to September 30th OF IS per cent, COM
pared with the same period in the preceding
wear, in the number of fatalities at highway
crossings This decrease took place IN spite
of the fact that there was an increase OF II
per cent in the number of motor vehicles in
use
During the calendar year 1921 figures show
there was one casualty at highway crossings
for every 1897 motor vehicles registered. In
1922 there was one for every 1916, and in
1923 there was one for every 5,O29 motor
vehicles.
AS direct result of the activities of the
railroads to reduce the number of accidents
at highway crossings in 1924 the casualty
rate at such places during that year was one
for every 6,043 motor vehicles. 1t is the be-
lief that despite the increase iw the number
OF automobiles the casualty rate in 1925 will
show even much greater Improvement than
in 1924
During the campaign this year number
of methods will be used in an effort to i'm
press upon motorists the necessity for guard
ing against accidents when approaching and
passing over railroad crossings. The Safety
Section has approved poster, the work OF
Fl. Day Lowry an artist of Richmond, Va.

the slogan Think, Driver, Think"

Must Raise Own Supplies.

The importance OF diversifying agricultural
crops in the state and the south, at least to
the extent OF producing at home all neces-
sarv food supplies. the wisdom OF which ev-
erv one must admit, is urged by the Georgia
Department OF Agriculture.
Diversified farming may have two mean
ings. 1t may mean producing several inn
portant crops for the market, or it may mean
producing cotton primarily as money crop,
but utilizing other portions OF the farm to
nroduce all home supplies as far as possible.
The former cannot be done successfully
until markets are established for crops other
man cotton, and there is reason for farmers
to hesitate on that score, but there is no
reason whatever for farmers to fail to grow
food supplies on his own farm and neglects
they can make so much cotton it will pay
them TO buy their supplies elsewhere. And
that theory has been proved, time after time'
TO be unsound and fallacious.
The farmer who is able to produce his
food supplies on his own farm, and neglects
to do it in the expectation OF buying them
out of cotton profits is specializing, and ne
is risking his family's welfare on the turn OF
the market" truthfully says a department
official
With the fertility OF Georgia soil there IS
no excuse for Georgia, with any sort OF
normal weather condition, not to produce an
abundance OF food crops in addition to a
good crop Of cotton If we fail to do this
we are neglecting the greatest opportunity
for our prosperity.

That Tennessee Case.

The trial of the Tennessee teacher, J. I.
Scopes, charged with violating the state anti
evolution law, is attracting nationwide atten-
ton because of its novelty and for the addi-
tional reason that there are sharp differences
of opinion as to the constitutionality of the
statute and also as to the strength or weak
ness of the issue in morals and conscience.
The case has aroused much speculation as
to the intent of the forefathers when they
established a government under which tree
dom of religious thought was guaranteed. II,
indeed, a state undertakes to enforce ortho-
dox belief upon its citizens then it may APP
pear that the American principle of free
dom in religious thought is endangered.
Citizens of the United States are not re-
quired to profess one religious faith as
against another Neither is it demanded of
them that they be orthodox in the profession
of faith which they do uphold. Indeed,
there is nothing in the constitution to for
bid citizens profession of unbelief Obvl-
ous1y no government could make progress
in that direction, since belief rests with the
individual and is utterly beyond federal or
state control. Going further, the federal con-
stituton with which it should be remember
ed no state constitution. shall be in conflict
makes no effort at scriptural Interpretation
II it did there might not be many different
churches in existence, every one with def
mite Interpretation of its own.
Tennessee's law against teaching evolu-
ton in a public school may stand legally
but its moral position never could be strength
ened for the reason that attempted force Of
this kind violates the American principle Of
absolute freedom in religious thought. Mr.
Bryans role of crusader in the interest Of
fundamentasm is not at all convincing ex
cept, perhaps, that it emphasizes that there
is no limit to his unreasonableness. No gov
eminent ought to have the power to enforce
upon its citizens religious belief OF any
kind or character. In some things the indi
vidual has sovereign rights which the state
cannot override.

Road Program in Danger.

Former Governor Ferguson, OF Texas,
urges halt on road bonus, and favors build
ing roads only as they can be paid for The
Texas situation is going to be paralleled IN
many states not because the people want
fewer good roads, but because OF the mania
which has developed among road officials Tor
building types OF road that absorb more
money than the taxpayers can produce
An example OF this tendency is seen in two
recent road paving contracts awarded by
western state for paving an aggregate OF
1871 miles OF highway. Instead OF accepting
the low bids for a type of asphaltic concrete
pavement which has been time-tested and
proved its worth the majority OF the
states highways contracts were awarded for
other types of pavement which have not yet
proved themselves as good by the test of
long usage, but which cost an aggregate OF
over $4,000 more for the jobs in question.
This additional $4,000 would have paved ap-
proximately another mile OF highway OF the
type that has proved satisfactory in the state
in question.
Forcing exorbtant costs in highway con-
structon will bring the downfall OF our ma
tional good roads program which is now I'M
derway.

Who's the Big Cheese in Your Town?
From the Pathfinder,

In most countries ones station in life is
determined by a genealogical tree or by a
coat Of arms or by a title. In Switzerland,
however, it is cheese that indicates degree
OF station Cheese holds far higher position
in that country than in others where 1t IS
merely an ordinary kitchen commodity.
There, it is asserted, the local rank" OF a
family is usually determined by the age and
quality of the cheese in the larder.
1t is said that some of the families in that
country may boast possession OF cheese that
is a hundred years old. However, these chees-
es are by no means served on ordinary oc-
casions. They are "preserved' for such occa-
sions as births, weddings and funerals. The
birth of each child in the family is celebrated
by the making of huge cheese. This cheese
is named for the child and put away until
his or her wedding On that day it is brought
out and all the guests partake OF it as har-
binger of good luck to the bride and groom.
What is left of the cheese after the wedding
ceremony is put away again to await the
owners funeral ceremony.
People in our country concentrate on the
size rather than the age OF their cheeses.
Since the time of President Jefferson it has
been a custom here to present a huge cheese
to the president after his election is assured.
Immediately after Jefferson's election inhab-
itants of Cheshire, Mass, decided to build
for him big cheese that would break all
previous records for size. This monster cheese
was four feet in, diameter and Is inches high.

Paying the Price.
From the Newman Herald and Advertiser.


Life conducts no bargain counters no cut
rate sales. Everything in life has Its hXed
price. in plain figures, and every man and
woman must pay for what they get 1t is
an inmutable law, and you can't beat 1t:
There are no exemptions, and the statute OF
limitations does not apply.
Would YOU have health? You must prac-
tice self-denial, curb your appetite and go to
bed nights instead OF attending wild parties.
Would you have riches? The price is la
Dor and thrift-hard work and regular saw
ing. Too many OF us spend our earnings be-
fore they are received.
Would you have friends? The price ticket
calls for a generous helping hand to those in
trouble--a willingness to share the Joys and
sorrows of those about you.
Would you have love? You must make
Yourself personally attractive, interesting
amiable. friendly Nobody loves a slouchy
sloppy man, or a peevish, nagging woman.
Would you have a happy home? The price
ticket calls for dOmesticty. You must teel
that your place is at home instead of at the
poker game you must look upon your wife
as YOUR partner. ii a woman, make the home
comfortable learn to be thrifty and economl-
cal and supply good food for the family. Nag
ging will drive any man to other company.
Would you have fine children? The price
at LIES store is self-sacrhce. You must give
them nearly twenty years OF your lffe and
the price OF several automobiles before their
feet are firmly fixed on the right road.
Just at this time it is because fathers and
mothers are unwilling to pay the price OF
parenthood that so many boys and girls go
astray. 1t is said that we get out of life what
we put in it; but the fact is we get out OF
life just what we pay for, and no more. Every
debt must be paid III some manner sooner
or later-but it is not fair to pass some OF
it on to innocent children.

Farming Leads.
From the Industrial Index


There are more people engaged in farming
in the United States than in any other single
business, and there is more money invested
in this business than in any other one line OF
industry, it is pointed out by officials OF the
Georgia Department of Agriculture in dis
cussing statistics on farming. Also, it is
shown, it is the most necessary business in
the life of the nation.
In round numbers there are seventy-eight
billions of dollars invested in farms, farming
equipment improvements and live stock In
all the manufacturing interests of the country,
it is stated, there are only approximately
forty-six billions invested, and in the COM
bined manufacturing, railroads and banking
business there is less money involved than in
farming alone.
agriculture, therefore, is the nations fore
most business said J. J. Brown, Georgia
commissioner of agriculture. There are some
men, Of course engaged in farming who are
reaping profits which compare favorably with
those being earned in the other great lines
of activity, but the percentage OF those who
acquire competency on the farm is not as
high as in other occupations.
.The reason for this condition of affairs
is apparent, but the remedy cannot be very
easily invoked The remedy includes educa-
ton, not only in its general meaning, but
technical education also, on production and
marketing, and these things require time"

Jail de Luxe.

DeKalb county, Illinois, has new Jail that
is declared to be the last word in comfort for
the erring- provided they are what the jailer
calls first grade prisoners" There are lace
curtains at the barred windows, and the jail
has blue room with the blue motif carefully
followed in all the decorations. The blue room
is equipped with comfortable beds, and the
cuisine Of the DeKalb county jail is of the
best Bootleggers, con men and others whose
violations of the law have netted them heavy
profits pay the price for royal entertainment
and receive it. This is fine way to encour-
age high grade prisoners, as called, to go on
with their nefarious occupations

Collecting Federal Loans.
From the Industrial News.

A recent summary OF list of federal and
joint stock banks discloses the fact that fore
closures and losses are rapidly increasing. In
the first seven years OF their existence the
banks began foreclosure proceedings on 29l0
farms and acquired 852 farms, OF which they
sold 128, making a net gain on farms sold OF
ST ,065.38
In the single year of 1924 the banks began
foreclosure proceedings on 2,226 farms and
acquired 423. They sold 118 farms at net
loss OF $28,731.54 thus consuming profits
made on foreclosing farms during the first
seven years and creating an additional loss OF
$1666l6.
1t takes more than cheap federal loans to
make good farmers.

A Poor Showing.
From the Sandersville Progress.

The average yield of wheat per acre is said
to the thirteen bushels and six tenths. AS the
Weld in the wheat belt of the west ranges
from sixty to seventy-fve bushels this makes
a poor showing for the yield in other sections.
The yield in Georgia is estimated at from
ten to twelve bushels per acre, but in some
counties forty to fifty bushels are reported.
The low yield is a drawback to agricul-
ture and is one of the reasons why agriculture
is not as attractive as other pursuits, as COM
paratively little money can be made by farm
ers. 1t requires just as much labor to produce
ten to twelve bushels per acre as it does to
produce FIVE times as much, and the only
chance to improve conditions is to increase
the fertility of the soil
