Agriculture is Varied.

are well suited for the grazing of
livestock, and the state has an
abundance of land, either rolling or
level, for growing vegetables, fruits,
corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, buck

duced.
Georgia's resources are vast. Its
climate and rainfall are conducive to
all plant life, and pleasant for hu-
man beings. The gentle art of living
is practiced in Georgia but there re-
mains a deep-rooted determina-

Drying Herbs

For finest flavor, dry herb leaves
rapidly in a well-ventilated. dry,
dark room. such as an airy attic.
The tender-leaf herbs such as basil,
costmary. tarragon, lemon balm
and mint especially need rapid dry
ing away from light to hold their
color and flavor and prevent mold
ing. The less succulent leaf herbs
such as sage, rosemary. thyme
and summer savory contain less
moisture and can be partially dried
in the sun without affecting their
flavor.

tiles and sugar make it industrially
important. It's lasting fame has
come from poets and wine. 1t gave
the country Sa'di and Hafiz, per-

Georgia seeded from the Union
early in 1861 and furnished the Con-
federate army 81 regiments and sc
battalions. On Georgia soil were
fought the battles of Chickamauga,
Ringgold, Resaca, New Hope
church, Kennesaw mountain, Peach
Tree creek, Atlanta, Jonesboro, Al

tended Sherman's march through
the state. When the war ended the
state was ravaged.
But thrift. ambition and pride
remained. The people of GeOr-
gia began to rebuild diff

soon after the Civil war ended,
Georgia resumed her enter
prises in every industrial line,
not even waiting for her re-
entrance into the Union, which
came in 1870.

So states a marker at the
highest point in Georgia, 4,784
feet above sea level, at Mount
Enota, atop Brasstown Bald
mountain.
Back Of that marker is over 400
years of American history, begin
ming with the explorations Of Her
nando De Soto, the gold-seeking ad-
venturer who journeyed through
that area in 1910. And, if legend is
correct, islands off the coast were
regarded in those days as the gold
en- isles Of Guale." Their winding
waterways were favorite haunts of
pirates of the Spanish main, and
today parties often search for treas
ure plate and ''pieces of eight"
cached there by Blackboard. But
the real history of Georgia sbegins
in 1873 with the founding of Savan-
nah.
Refugees Get Charter.
Among the debtors in English
prisons were men of high charac-
ter, splendid education and great
ability. In London were benevolent
gentlemen, too, who sought to found
a home for these unfortunates and
a place of refuge for the Salzbur-
gen and other prosecuted sects of
the continent of Europe. They
obtained a aScharter from George II,
king of England, in June, 1882, and
selected Gen. James Edward Ogle-
thorpe as governor.
A man of great liberality and
marked ability, General Ogle-
thorpe landed at Yamacraw
bluff in February, 1888, with 116
emigrants and laid the founda-
tions for Savannah, the first
American city to be planned
before building.
During the next eight years about
$500 persons were brought over,
two-thirds of them German Protes-
tants. The Wesleys, John and
Charles, came in 1876 as young
clergymen George Whitefeld ar
rived in 1740. Thus, from a small
beginning, Georgia grew to take
its place, 40 years later, with
the other IL colonies in throwing
off British domination.
Ravaged by War.
Twice Georgia was ravaged by
war. In May, ITS, more than a
year before the Declaration of In
dependence, Col. Joseph Haber-
sham and Commodore Bowen with
80 volunteers seized the powder
magazine at Savannah and secured
$4,000 pounds of powder, of which
Georgia authorities sent 5000
pounds to the Continental army at
Boston. In March, 1776, the Geor-
gians under Colonel Mcintosh, aid
ed by Carolinians under Colonel
Bull, burned and disabled out of
II British merchant vessels which
were attempting to carry on trade
with loyalist planters.
In December, 1778, the British
captured Savannah and Augusta fell
a few months later. After the fall
of Charleston, S. C., in 1880, the
British overran all eastern Geor-
gia. 1t was not until 1871 that Col.
