THE GAIN AT PRZEMYSL.
•' Hen who have studied the eastern war situa-
' tion consider that the Russians have gained
much more than a military victory by the cap-
' tore of the Austrian fortress, which has so of
ten been denominated the key to Galicia.
Besides releasing the 160,000 men "used in the
attack and investment, at least twice that num
ber was needed to keep up the Russian lines.
Przemysl will now become a Russian base of
supplies and a strategic point for operations
west and south. It gives the Russians an un
interrupted line of railroad from Tarnow
through Rzeszow, Jaroslav, Przemysl, Lwow
into Bukowina.
While Przemysl stood, Russian operations in
Bukowina to the south, against the Carpathian
passes to the south and southwest, and against
Cracow on the west were threatened from the
rear by the garrison of the fortress, a garrison
that was shown since its surrender to have been
a strong and formidable one. If the Russians
moved in force south, there was the danger of
a dash from Cracow only 125 miles distant
to the relief of Przemysl. If there was a move
in force on Cracow, there was the danger of an
Austrian advance through the Carpathians with
file same object. Przemysl fallen, the point of
weakness becomes a point of strength.
. The taking of the fortress was a proof'of the
efficiency of the Russian army, a proof badly
needed since the debacle with Japan. It was
defended by the flower of the Austrian forces,
supported by the latest in German armament
and defense. The siege was made in the middle
•f winter, by a force inferior in armament and
technical ability. It was twice relieved. While
the attack began early in September, Przemysl
was not systematically bombarded until the
ZOttyiand completely invested some time later.
For nearly a month from the 10th of October
nothing like a state of siege jsxisted and the de
fenders were able to replenish their stores. In
file middle of December the Russian lines were
ngain forced to yield to pressure and steady
•eige operations were not resumed until Janu
ary. Then the work was quickly done, the fort
ress surrendering March 19th.
The fall of Przemysl enables the Russians to
protect the rear of their armies advancing on
Cracow, and the Carpathians; affords them a
base for operations on both and also in Buko-
wina, and breaks the backbone of Austrian
power in Galicia. It makes the invasion of Hun
gary and Austria assured and even threatens
Berlin along the railway lines from Cracow.
SAVING SEED PEAS.
' The editor of the Dawson News saw some
white six-weeks peas selling on that market and
■ asked the price. They readily brought $4.60
a bushel and many farmers were buying them.
They came from California and the purchasers
Id the freight across the continent. The News
the same peas grow profitably in Terrell
ity, and points to this as one item in the
expense account that keeps the South poor.
It has always been beyond our understanding
the Georgia farmer does not save his own
peas. Not alone the little white ones, but
speckled pea, the cow-pea, the crowder, and
other varieties that are needed to make our
" productive,
few of the more advanced farmers sow peas
year for hay or to turn under for legumes,
very few save their seed. These can be
for the gathering, but they are plowed in or
ed over to the hogs and seed for another
bought
Ills too much trouble, or they are busy with
eir cotton just then, or the peas are eaten by
weevils, or there is some other excuse for letting
go to waste in the fall what must be bought at
a high price next spring. Seed peas now usually
^RUfor $2.50 to $3.50 a bushel. They are not
fworth over $1. An ordinary school boy can pick
and thresh out two bushels a day. But there
ifc some work and trouble in it and the rule is to
let the peas go and raise cotton to buy more
S»xt. spring.
A correspondent from Constantinople says
that the Allies’ ships were sunk by shells from
yithe forts. He is perhaps sincere, but the facts
aeem to be against him. It perhaps appeared
to the men behind the firing line that the ships
were sank by shells. The statement of the Brit-
fcfc Admiralty that mines did the work is posi
tive arid is in part corroborated by the state
ment fro Turkish sources that the ships were
■ank by torepdoes. The correspondent states
fiiat the forts were little injured.
The dash of the Allied warships on the nar
rows of the Dardanelles last Thursday may be
properly termed the first assault There had
hjem jtom^^mhpts before but fit long range,
wjiere, &9 (superior weight of the mtfal of the
new warships yayr.fHe. Turkish* forts little
chance for effective reply.
Thursday the figjhtfag was at close range and
while a great price was paid the showing as a
whole should be satisfactory to the atta -.king
fleet.' As is always the case with first ass suits
the loss was heavy and the advantage slight.
But for the attacking ships the initial movei lent
has been made and its lessons learned. Against
subsequent assaults the Turkish forts will never
be as strong again and the blowing up of two
magazines was a serious loss as ammunition is
limited. The Turks only have a few 14-inch
guns, and batteries put out of action will per
haps stay so. The attacking fleet has brought
up reserves to replace its loss and the latter is
only an item of the bill of cost. Those in com
mand say the expense so far has been no heavier
than was expected.
At the narrows it may be taken for granted
that the Allies have encountered the strongest
defenses of the straits. Twelve miles from the
entrance to the great waterway the channel
takes a sharp turn to the left. On the European
shore the heights run up to 600 feet and on these
stood about fourteen forts and batteries. On
the opposite side, in Asia, the lower lie of the
land gave favorable location for only two forts,
and south of these is Kephez point which juts
far out into the waters protecting the bay Sari
Siglar.
The purpose of the attack was to rush the
narrows and silence the batteries on both shores
by a hot, concentrated fire. Between the nar
rows and the entrance there are a number of
strong forts but these had all been put out of ac
tion. For this (jaring dash nine battleships,
heavily armored but of the oldest types now in
active service, were selected. Four of these
were French and formed the advance guard;
five were English.
The attacking ships won their way past
Kephez point, steamed north and after two
hours had practically silenced the land batteries
as far as the narrows. One of the French ships
is said to have gone up into the narrows but was
driven back by the fire of the forts further up
the channel.
So far, the work was well done. If the war
ships had retired then it is safe to say they would
have come out practically unscathed. But they
stayed too long. What the Turkish guns could
not accomplish was done by a strong current and
floating mines. The current sets southward
through the narrows at nearly three miles an
hour, and down this the Turks sent floating
mines. Just as the French vessels were retiring,
these mines began to arrive. After the Bouvet
was sunk and the Gaulois damaged, the British
vessels might have escaped, but they stuck to
their work until sundown and two of them were
lost.
While the price paid was a stiff one, yet the
Allies fleet can afford to sacrifice many more of
these antique ships in order to carry the straits.
Each of those lost was built in the late ’90’s and
was unfit for a stand-up fight with modern ships.
They would soon have been retired from active
service and came in useful as a pawn in this
great war game.
The Allies are now warned of the danger
from floating mines and will probably not be
caught in a position where the loss will be so
great from them again. But both British and
French navies have a number of these fighting
ships that they would be willing to exchange for
the passage of the Dardanelles and an open
way to Constantinople. Experts agree that the
forcing of a passage through the straits has just
fairly begun. But it is also probable that the
first part of the work was the hardest.
Most of you Dave this week been
given the opportunity of eubeeribing
one bushel of core or * email sum of
money to help pay the salary of the
Calming Club Agent for Tift county.
Th* corn subscribed will be' bought
by the County Commissioners aind the
money derived therefrom will be used
in paying the hgent. The committee
appointed to plan for securing the
agent has received the promise of
|200 from the State College of Agri
culture, providing $200 is raised in
the county.
I am writing in behalf of the com
mittee to urge every farmer who be
lieves in the canning club work to
promptly sign the card when it is
presented to you. You must realize
that it is a big undertaking for a
committee to collect several hundred
bushels of corn from all over the
county when each member of the
committee has a business at home
that needs his attention. Do you
not believe that it is right for every
man to do his part In a worthy under
taking? Have you not many times
condemned some neighbor of yours
because he waited for others to do
everything that needed the co-opera
tion of the community? Have you
not preached “co-operation of the
farmers?” Answer these questions
to yourself, then sign a card and tell
your neighbors about it
I have heard of three men who at
first objected to the canning club
work. Two of these stated that-their
wives were teaching their children
how to tan. These gentlemen agreed
that all should learn to can but that
many many mothets cannot or do not
teach their girls this and that it may
be well to help teach the children that
are lets fortunate than theirs. I be
lieve every farmer will agree that we
ought to learn to live at home more;
that one method of doing this is by
learning to can fruits and vegetables,
that the quickest and safest way for
most of the young people of the coun
ty in to learn through a person ap
pointed for that purpose. I believe
that the vegetables and fruit that will
be canned this year through the influ
ence of the agent will .be worth sev
eral times her salary. The emphasis
an agent places on this work will
cause the girls to taka interest and
pride in canning and will help cause
them to cease looking on all such
home work ns mere drudgery. The
agent's instructions in planting, fer
tilizing and cultivating torn*toej will
be of value to you and your boys a«
well as to your daughters.
The third man who spoke agalnri
this work said he believed in it but
that it had never reached hi# homci
that his daughter had never seen an
agent. Former agents were employ
ed for oniy a short time! Last year's
agent began work abpu^June 1st, I
believe, which was after the schools
had closed und entirely too late for
her to render her best services. She

ORAL HYGIENE.
Dr. O. Lee Chesnutt, of Jackson. Is agitating
a measure for the dental inspection of the school
children of the state.
Under his plan aa proposed,, the work will be
done under the direction of the state Board of
Health by a regularly appointed inspector who
will visit all of the schools, inspect the children’s
teeth, and report on the condition of same to
the parent, with recommendation as to the steps
to be taken to remedy any evils that may exist.
The object is to conserve the teeth of the risk
ing generation and thereby preserve the health.
While there are many details as to the opera
tion of the plan, the above is a brief outline and
gives a general idea of the work. Dr. Chesnutt
did some good work among the public schools
of this county while he lived in Tifton towards
arousing an interest among the children in the
care of the teeth, and this work has been ex
tended until now it is statewide in its scope.
The importance of sound teeth to good health
has become generally recognized by those to
whom the knowledge comes too late. To bring
the importance of dental hygiene before the
growing child, that the care of the teeth may
become a part of personal cleanliness, and that
disease which cause decay may be checked be
fore damage is done, is a plan of health conser
vation that should commend itself to every
thinking person.
There can be no perfect health without good
digestion; without mastication we can not have
satisfactory digestion; correct mastication is
impossible without sound teeth, so if we would
have a healthy race we must see that the child
ren have good teeth. The mouth is the gateway
to the internal body; its faiardians should be
able to do their duty, that the' body may be
sound. ■ sj&'u ' * %&&&*

Hi
Ibea;
worked much more than the wsv paid " ow
for and gave splendid ‘ satisfnctiqn,
yet it was impossible for her to come
into as close touch with all section#
of the county as she should. This
year'# agent is to pat in more time
and should' be- able to do very effect
ive work.
I hope that everyone of you who
reads this will see that I am asking
you to Kelp-a good cause and that you
will speak a good word to your neigh
bor. Discuss the conning club with
every farmer you meet Tell him
you believe- any- man should be will
ing to give a bushel of corn to help
poy the agent, whether he has a dau
ghter who can enter the club or not.
Tift county has. secured the proper
perton tor the canning club work
and I am confident we will have one
of the best' clubs in ths state.
Very truly,

A FAST' DEVELOPING INDUSTRY
From the Macon News:
The making- of qyrup in Georgia
has been an industry on every farm
capable of producing an acre or two
of sorghum cone. Now, hovrever, it
is an industry fast developing into
largo proportions. Not content with
making syrup for his own tabbs, the
farmer is finding that he has a ready
market for his surplus, and that it
-pays him a neat profit.
The- Tifton Gazette tells to what
extent this business has increased in
Tift county.
There are many “side crops” which
can be profitably- engaged in this
statav and the raising of sorghum is
principal among them. There is no
reason why Georgia should not lead
the South in the production—and
canning—of syrup.
