somewhat embarrassed by learning of
the custom In vogue in the italian post
office. where 1t seems, one cannot OBJ

knows you. The tourist came out Of
the post office In despair, az she knew
no one In the town. Suddenly man
lounglng outside came up to her and
asked If she wanted "a witness to lden

would be trivial. lie took her back to

known her since childhood. likewise
her parents and grandparents, and she
got her letter.

No Quarter for Wild Fowl.
From the New York Tribune.

When such fighter as Dr. William |:
Hornadav admits defeat after a five years
battle for game protection his opponents may
we'll exult Dr. Hornaday reports to the al
lies OF the Permanent Wild Life Protection
Fund that the campaign for legislation III be-
hall of game birds has ended in 90 per cent
failure Only five states have reduced bag
limits and open seasons; there is no, pros
pect of others acting. The federal govern
ment has not lifted a finger"
II it were clear-cut issue between the
pleasure game hogs and the preservation OF
bird species the demand for shooting re-
strictions would be effective; the weight OF
sentiment behind it would compel action. But
the opinion of true sportsmen and conserva-
tionists is not unanimous. Not all agree with
Dr. Hornaday that the automobile and the
automatic gun will work complete destruction
of game birds unless, as he advocates, a stop
order is placed on 40 per cent of the annual
killing. The federal officials in control OF the
situation believe the peril is exaggerated.
The secretary of agriculture, advised by the
Biological Survey, could, if he chose, make
a summary reduction of bag limits in his reg
ulatons for the enforcement OF the migratory
bird treaty act He cannot be persuaded OF
the need of doing so His department, Sec
rotary Jardine has stated, is of the opinion,
by reason of the marked increase in wild
fowl, that immediate radical reductions in
bag limits are not necessary at the present
time throughout the country" He remarks
that the states can impose restrictions at any
time But the states where the slaughter is
greatest have not the slightest intention OF
reform
Since neither the states, with few excep-
tons, nor the federal government will curb
the gunners the birds, according to Dr. Hor-
naday, are doomed He SCOTS at the marked
increase" observed by the Biological Survey,
remembering that the state senate of Ohio in
/ 1857 gravely resolved that the passenger
pigeons existed in such millions that they
never would diminish, and, therefore, needed
no protection. The last passenger pigeon died
in the Cincinnati geological garden eleven
years ago.

Courage or Folly?

The other day a man who had a criminal
record jumped into river to save his dog.
The current was swift, and both persisted.
The act Of the man, however, has led to a
newspaper discussion as to whether the man
displayed courage or folly
No question of this kind can be fairly CON
sidered without the background of the story.
The man had his ups and downs" in life.
He had lived as prince and Jared as a pau
per- He had slept in New York's palatial
hotels and under a tree in the park. What
ever his fortune his dog shared it. On one
occasion when he was desperately i'll the dog
attracted the attention OF a passerby to his
condition, and brought relief
Between man and dog, therefore, there was
real affection, reminding one OF Senator Vests
famous eulogy on the dog. AS will be remem-
bered the senator said: The best friend a
man has in the world may turn against him !;
his children may prove false and ungrateful;
he may lose his money and his reputation be
sacrificed; but the one unselhsh friend that
sticks by him is his dog. Why then should
not the man stick by his dog?"
Viewed in this light this criminals sacrifice
of his own life for that of his dog was an
unselhsh act that bespeaks courage rather
than folly.

The Florida Bubble

The bubble of Floridas amazing boom is
soon to burst, in the judgment of good bust
ness men who have recently visited that state.
"The prices are so high now in Florida that
they are buying nothing but hot air." said
one. People are going crazy. One country
bank is employing ia in the bank to take
care of its customers Building is going on
everywhere though it seems some Of the work
is fashy on the exterior rather than substan-
tial throughout. Building costs are out of
sight because skilled labor is very scarce. Ne
groes do practically all of the heavy construc-
ton work"
Conditions as described by this man. who
speaks from personal observation, cannot last
forever The high tide will soon be reached,
and the then the bubble will vanish. The wise
Georgian will keep his money at home and
assist in building up his own section.

Taxes and Politics.

For once, at least, in the history OF the re-
public the people occupy position OF abso-
lutte safety as the two major parties make
their plans for movement in legislation
when the next congress convenes. 1t appears
that the republican administration, together
with that party's. leaders in the senate, is
pledged to put through a program Tor re
ducton of taxation running into hundreds of
millions OF dollars. 1t appears also that the
democrats, sensing the appeal this movement
makes to the people, will out Mellon the sec
retary of the treasury; out-Coolidge the
occupant OF the white house, and out-I-ord
the director of the budget by demanding tax
reductions in more hundreds of millions than
advocated by the party in power.
There is thus presented an interesting sit
uation sure to develop to the advantage OF the
people who pay the taxes. Each major party
will have a tax reduction program when con
qress convenes Each organization and all
its members will be pledged to such sweep
ing application Of efficiency rules i'll the adj
ministration OF government as may threaten
TO interpret the character OF Uncle Sam as
close, cranky, austere and even parsimonious.
The spectacle OF government departments
being run on a basis of such strict economy
as would put to shame the best efficiency ex-
pert ever permitted at large is seen in the
citing. Governmental expenses are to be cut
to the bone by the republicans, and the dem
ocrats are going to insist on whiting little
deeper. The test between the two parties IS
now on.

Died for His Dog.
From the Macon News.


Tinker" Walsh, whose real first name was
John, was not good man. He was a criminal
if the police are to be believed, hold-up
man, who prowled in darkened alleys and
streets, pinioned his victims arms behind him
and went through his pockets from the back,
relates the New York Tribune. He had often
been in jail and once served prison sentence;
he got into trouble so often that the police
always watched him when he ventured forth
from his home at go Waters street.
But they will have to watch him no more,
for Walsh is dead
The policemen who knew Walsh so we'll
knew also that the only thing in the world
he cared for was the dog. They did not watch
so closely when Walsh was accompanied by
his pet because they knew then that Walsh
was out for pleasure and not for wickedness.
Walsh and the dog familiar figures along
the lower stretch of the East river. On Sat
urday the dog became very not and Walsh
threw him into the river, hoping that he
might cool off But the shock was too great.
The dog came up gasping and surging and
then sank. Walsh jumped in, removing only
his coat, and he too, came up gasping with
his face twisted in pain. Some small boys
yelled for help and the dog was saved. But it
was too late to save the man.

Postal Receipts Decline.

If postal receipts continue in the same
ratio as since the new law went into effect
they will decline at least $12,000,000 year
This is the statement based on figures avail
able by the postofice department. Thus the
new law, designed to permit the government
to follow the almost universal custom OF
gouging its patrons, particularly those who
mail fourth class matter, will not increase
postal receipts but will decrease them.
The weak place in the present law lies in
making first class rates comparatively cheap
er than those OF other specified kinds of ser
vice. Naturally in selecting the kind Of ser
vice the user chooses the cheaper, which now
happens to be the best. He can do this and
save money by making over the form OF his
publicity matter This he has been doing to
such an extent that the first class mails now
carry tons of matter that used to be allotted
other classification. The government loses on
the transaction, and naturally SO because it
does not EXHIBIT as good judgment in its laws
as the business man does in the adoption OF
methods.
Congress may finally enact postal laws that
will give the postoff1cr department a profit
on the business it transacts, but the chances
are that it will not.

Sport Without Shrewdness.
From the Savannah Press.

1t isn't easy to trip up a south Georgian
The late Judge Speer used to refer to a prom
inent Savannah banker, paying high tribute
to his South Georgia shrewdness."
There is an instance, however, where
south Georgia representative encountered two
Atlanta "slickers" and was misused in move
way. The Macon Telegraph narrates the in
cdent, and we presume is responsible for the
recital:
The opening Of the Georgia legislature
was celebrated by the arrival in Atlanta
of Mr.. Rountree, of Adrian, Ga. who told
the police that he met a very genial gen
tleman in the Terminal station of the
capital After friendly chat the stran-
ger suggested that they go for a stroll.
Mr.. Rountree was agreeable Hallway
across an Atlanta viaduct the gentleman
asked Mr. Rountree if he had knife. A
passing stranger preferred one. Mr..
Rountrees friend could not open il. The
second stranger took it and opened it
with ease and then offered Mr. Roun-
trees friend 81 bet that he couldn't
repeat the performance. Mr.. Rountree's
friend won the 81. The stranger then
offered to bet Mr. Rountree $40 that he
couldn't open the knife. Mr.. Rountree ac-
cepted the sporting proposition and paid
out twenty perfectly good dollars. As he
struggled with a blade that had been
soldered to the knife-a second knife
his friend and the stranger went off to-
gether.

Take Heart.
From the Ocilla Star.


Everybody has known for long time that
south Georgia is fundamentally sound We
have all the climate that a rich Yankee is
looking for if he only knew about it, and
there is the added attraction of fertile soil
that will grow any kind of crop at a profit.
But we have been down in the mouth en-
trely too long and without sufficient cause.
1t is time to take heart, and we believe that
the time is near at hand when we are going
to do it.
From various sources it is heard that Flor
ida real estate men say that south Georgia
is soon going to experience a period OF de-
velopment comparable to the wonderful de
velopment Florida is experiencing. In fact
in many south Georgia towns prices of real
estate are advancing. When the men with
money find out what we have in south Geor-
gia they going to begin investing here
as they do in Florida, and the dance will be
on.
Ours will be a permanent development We
the prices at which land now sells. There is
something to back up the era of develop
ment that is just around the corner
Our pecan tree is fully the equivalent of
the orange, and we know that we can make
good crops OF cotton, corn, potatoes, tobacco
and many other crops that can not be made
successfully in Florida. We have a great
country and when, by advertising, we put
that fact before the country the response is
going to be prompt and positive.
Meantime let us take heart. Crops are
good, and things are going to be humming
this fall Let us Undue Others with the idea
that we have a sure enough good country,

The Man Worth While.
From the Washington News-Reporter

At times a man gets fool notion that he
must be nasty. cursing irritating sort of
creature. provided he pretend to the pub
lie that the reason for his general nastiness
is the fearful load or responsibility he carries
all the week, but when the children crawl
under the bed, and the cat hikes for the back
fence, and the dog growls, and the neighbors
call their children into the house when they
see him coming there's something wrong,
even when the man thinks he is making sweet
music by rafting loose change in the shape of
hye dollar gold pieces in his pocket. A little
gold in ones heart. a little milk OF human
kindness and consideration in ones veins and
a little laughter in ones voice is worth more
than lot OF gold in the bank or pocket We
have all known such men,
However, the man we like to do business
with may wear a greasy hat and the seat of
his pants may be shiny but if his children
have their noses fattened against the window
pane half hour before he is due home to
supper you can trust him with anything you
have. He Is all right.

Good Business News.

The Federal Reserve Bank at Atlanta says
that savings deposits OF 90 reporting banks at
the end of last month were greater than a
year ago, and debts to individual accounts at
a reporting cities for the week ending June
10th were more than sixty-one. millions Of
dollars greater than for the same week last
year.
Building permits in 20 cities during last
month exceeded the total for the same month
of last year by 1873 per cent and were the
highest since these figures have been collected
by the Federal Reserve Bank
The condition OF the cotton crop is higher
than at this time of the season in several
years, the federal bank reports.

The Farmer and His Credit.
From the Progressive Farmer.

Credit. when sought for legitimate pur-
pose and rightly used, can easily become the
greatest asset of poor though honest farm
er mbued with ambition. He, can so co-ordl-
nate his honesty, ambition and Willingness to
toll with his credit that the result will be a
nice little farm paid for in a few years time.
A man who uses his credit we'll seldom
uses his credit to buy feed to make crop.
OF course, there are times of severe drouth
and other conditions over which he has no
control which might make this necessary.
This type of man will be considered a good
financial risk by the banker.
The poorest risk is the farmer who tries
to plant all cotton and buy his corn, hay, oats
and meat, and pay other expenses. A cotton
crop can be planted and worked to laying by
time in about 90 days. Help will have to be
had in gathering it. Expenses go on for 365
DAYS. 1t is asking too much of a cotton crop
made with 90 days work to pay all the eX-
penses Of farm for sos days, and those who
persist in trying it usually quit farming via
sheritfS sale.
A good risk is one who sticks to diversih-
cation raises enough food for man and beast,
keeps a good milk cow a brood sow which
will give him two litters year and 100 hens
in the poultry yard He also has a garden
producing vegetables all the year round and
a cane patch for syrup. This kind Of farm
err makes cotton his money crop and has no
trouble in securing credit when necessary.
May the farmer soon realize that he is a
business man and ambitious to succeed; but
that he is an ethical man and wishes no sue
cess that is not founded on justice and moral
ity.
We regret to report that somewhere the
fellow who wants to know in July if it is
warm enough for you is thawing out.

Watch for Cotton Flea.
From the Newman Herald and Advert

From the Newman Herald and Advertiser
The cotton flea did great deal of dam
age in Texas last year, and was found in
considerable numbers i'll Coweta county The
flea attacks the small squares when they first
form. 1t is so small that it is hard to see,
but its effects are readily observed The
squares are knocked off as fast as they form
until about the middle of July At that time
the flea migrates from the field The boil
weeviI usually does its most serious damage
in July and August, so if we have both the
flea and the boil weevi the situation is nearly
hopeless. The flea gets the bottom crop and
the weevil gets the middle and top crop.
In Texas the best results in controlling the
flea busting with sulphur. Experiments
have been carried on only for one year and
are not yet conclusive but the indications
are that busting should be done once each
week during June and July, when heas are
present busting sulphur can be applied with
an ordinary dust gun. 1t should be applied
heavily, at least 10 to Is pounds per acre If
calcium arsenate is mixed with the sulphur
it goes through the dust gun better, and the
boil weevil is controlled at the same time.
Ii your cotton is large enough to have
squares but none are found it is more than
likely due to the cotton flea Since the con-
troll measures are still in the experimental
stage it is necessary to work out the details,
and we should get started on it at once.

Farmers and Freight Rates.
From the Atlanta Georgian.

roads, according to complaint that has been
made for some years-ever since agricultural
depression first was felt This probably is an
error" says The Dawson News.
1t probably IS error If the exact truth
were known and considered by all OF our
people it is doubtful whether there would be
any widespread complaint particularly from
our Georgia farmers-about freight rates
The man the farmer pays too much money
to is the 'rniddeman;' at least, he is the man
who gets too much of the farmers money
much that the farmer might save to himself
by practicing on larger scale than he does
cooperative marketing methods. If only the
farmer would
