We certainly hope the young people will cease to have to do with one side of American® life—that is the criminal side. We are regretful that the highway officials did not take hold of and en courage a sensible reorganization o: the Georgia state highway department Much good service could have been rendered in this manner. We must have this department out of our poli tics. Might as well go to planning it —and the politicians are not going to give itaup if they can avoid doing sO. We expect progressive handling of the highway department-expect that of the board we have and their associates. ©Of course, the woman would he assassin who shot Mussolini’'s nose off has Dbeen found unbalanced in mind. She tried to kill herself on a tormer occasion. Our mind leads us to believe she wasu't crazy when she wis shooting at the Italian distator’s nose. We'll take a guess with vou that she wasn't a Roman Catholic— one further—that religious fanatic ism was at the bottom of this effort to slay Mussolini. There seems to he a growing helief! that the three and lhrm--qunrp-r per cent malt tonie can be sold in the zood old state of Georgia, and we un derstand that plans are being made to sell it through the drug stoves. Here is a prediction which will eome true—personal wishes to the coutrary notwithstanding—though _it be ghown as non-intoxicating, it will not travel far as a beverage in Georgia. We think we know Georgia better than that. We are saying nothing—abso- Litely nulhifin———:lboul how many would like to be able 1o gct it over ¢ethe fount at the drug store. POOR FITTING CLOTHES Superintendent Fort E. Land has denounced the insingation that was made in the legislature that the school book trust financ ed his campaign. He says that l}i.\' campaign expenses were list ed and filed with the Compiroller General. They were made ander oath and amounted to $1,278.28, for legitimate expefses and not a dollar of the unmmn'(-n.nw from the book trust. We are glad to gee a scandalous charge like that » made by the gentleman from Troup county corrected,—Valdos ta Times. The man who jumped on State St perintendent Fort E. Land of the schools wears poorly fitting clotees. He stooped. stooped not to conquer, but to dishonor the office he holds as a representative of the people. For! Land will not have to work very hard to shake the slander, but the gentle man from Troup will have to g 2 a long way before he convinces the e who heard him—and the people of the state at large—that he is not the rascal of the two and Land the gon tleman The man who wears the clothes of an office ol public trust should should wear them, Such conduct in the assembly halls ill becomes any representative of the people. Such a disposition of hatred, misrepresenta tion, is never included in the conduct ol a mad of high purpose and clean mind. : We have seen much of a very low order of animosity and undercover shenanigin in the atmosphere too close about the extra session of the assembly. Governor Walker has some bitter enemies who have been busy trying to defeat the good causes pre sented and urged. ‘These enemies have been utterly unmindful of the rights and friendly relationships of others in their battles for supremacy -—in their determination to carry ev ervthing to defeat. OUR HIGHWAY PLICHT We do not understand-—we think it is pure buncombe—why the legisla ture in both houses has defeated plans to reorganize the state highway de partment and go down to paving in business like manner. It may be politics—everything is a maze of that sort of stuff at the state capitol and it begins to look as though every lit tle faction would prefer to rule or ruin. If one faction cannot carry itsl point, it immediately scts in to pre vent the other from having its way. That's human nature in the large. We unfortunately are not able to es cape it. And now we go down to—to —damnation, we suppose, so far as paved highways are concerned. We think it highly probable that while we are writing these lines, the lower house is defeating the bond issue. With reorganization defeated, there is no use of a bond issue. [Positively the people of Georgia have a right to protest against fur ther waste of money—and it would he | sheer waste to vote seventy million dollars in bonds and waste them on rumbling machinery and soft surface upkeep. We keep on referring to soft surface upkeep because this state, according to the chairman of the highway department, is spending‘ five millions a year on that waste. And we call it waste because the county forces can maintain the pres ent state soft-surtace work for less than one in ten dollars now going iLhut way. We have duplicated road ‘machinery till the thing looks like a pile of graft as high as the rocky mountains. Nearly every county in the state has the road \\'()x'kfiu,g mi chinery a"lremly in hand to take care of all the soft surface. upkeep. Lo cal l’orzzq-s can do it at not more thau one-tenth of what is being spent now. Five hundred - thousand dolars.will pay for it and keep up every soft sur face mile of state highways till it can be paved. Here alone can he gaved four to four and a halt million dollars a year for paving. Nobody has made an effort to SUVE it- nobody seems to want to do that You cannot start a single expression —not a word from a politician or highway official anywhere. Well, we are a little bit of the great Georgia newspaper force, but we are coing {0 keep on knocking at the soft surface upleep till we find there is no fur ther good result to be attained in il. There isn't a larger waste of public funds in Georgia today—dare anybody to find it. Soft surface state high iwuy upkeep in Georgia is a crimng i against the intelligence of the aver age tax payer. There isn's a Ford owner in Georgia who digs down in his jeans for the extra gas tax and the tag for his car who doesn’t make a daily joke of the soft surtace up keep on the state highways. l Well, we don't want any bond issue ilill we have a highway department ll'vnm\'ml trom politics. We cannot |“—;m till somebody dies for pavinyg i We've got to do something—and we ! are coming back home from the extra session without one thing—not a stroke in the direction of paved high- C ways. We've had a fifty-day sessior ' with one faction fighting the other % and the other faction blocking all | sorts of legislation. Wonder how ; many governors we have groomed for ;mn coming primary? Isn't that the ;rc.xl issue—does anvlrody in the leg islature cave about schools or paved E highwayvs? | | We have not a word of censure o John Holder or his associates on the | highway department. Nothing we say % about soft surface upkeep—the greal [ waste of it—is intended a hostilit) ' towards the department. We are sim ! ply begging for a plan that will check é up this waste and pave the highways i:\\'e want to pay for them as we go, { but it cannot be done with this waste ‘lx;Jx-.:i'xg; over our heads—=it can never be done under the present program. And we need no honds till we are out of politics with our highway paving. HOME EEAUTIFYING Where it is not possible to huild the new house on a lot having good trees, the first step toward an attrac tive hom= is tree-planting, says a statement iszied by the United Staics Department of Agriculture. Even with trees already established, it adds, plants of smaller growth are re quired in addition if a home atmos phere is to radiate from the liouse. A proper combination of these gives the most pleasant result. The bulletin makes the fcllowing suggestions: “Locating the walk and the drive, if there is to be one, is a necessary preliminary to planting the grounds. The lcss conspicious they are the het ter for the general effect. If the Louse is close to the street they are the better for the general effect. 1f the housz is close to the street a straight walk is the least obtrusive and cuts up the lawn less than a curving one; but if the house is far ther from the street and the width of its own front, an unbroken lawn may be provided by curving the walk from one corner or ltll.',' othér. When a drive is needed it may often be nsed as a substitute for a walk., Walks and drives should be kept as few in number and as limited 'in area as con ditions will permit. * Proper location of shade trees is probably the most vital of all the }plnnting‘ detaits.

Say, now! You’ve got a cigarette-experience coming. P. A. makes the kind of cigarette you can write home about, for a fact. Just get yourself a tidy red tin or a toppy red bag of P. A. today. Put a pinch in a paper and do your finger exercise. Notice that it doesn’t spill all over the place or blow away on the first breeze. That’s because Prince Albert is crimp-cut and stays put. Y !l:omc beautifiers. the department of {agricu!mre has issued a bulletin en ;(itled “Beautifying the Farmsteéd," iknown as Farmers’ Bulletin 1087 and ]v;hich discuss2s at length the princi gpics of landscape development, appoli lcal;le to the farm and to the city ihome. It may be obtained by writing il() the department at Washington. § Sl S s e o i iPREPARE EARLY FOR SOYREANMNS I'i’hr.: !”m::;ressivv Farmer. Farmers who have been growing cowpeas successtully on pooily pre- I]i-.n'ed land complain that they get 'p(n;-l' stands of soybeans. Many charge jiheir failures to dead soybean seedl. ’\\'hile soybean seed do nal retain {their vitality as long as cowpez sead, failue 10 get a stand of soybeans is more cften due to (I)poeriy preparcd seedbeds and "(2)ydeep planiing than Mo poor seed. The demand for soyhean zs-eml has bLeen so strong that but few lf.-i' them have been held over to :he i:.:z(:ox:d year and all shoiM sprout {well I A smooth, dragged-down and well ipulverized seed-bed and one prenared long enough before planting to be come settled by rain, will invariably give a geod stand of soybeans, if good ':;c(rd are planted and covered nct niore than one inch deep. ! Land intended for soybeans and not now occuried hy a crop sunould be plowed as soon as possible and disked and harrowed just before the soy- Yeans are planted. : Soyheans do net compete . with weeds as well as . cowpeas do, and tearly plowing helns to kill the weeds A cigarette made with P. A. not only volls easier—it burns better and, what is very important, it tastes better. Coo! and sweet and fragrant. Doesn’t burn the tongue or parch the throat. The Prince Albert process prevents that. Go ahead and roll ’em with P. A.! Step around the corner today and cet some P. A. Make some great cigarcites with it. And, to vary your smoke-men, tamp a load of this wonderful tobacco into the bowl of your old jimmy-pipe. No matter how you smoke it, P, A, gives you the glad hand in every perfeci puff. glat come over from last 21l By rlow ing soybean land at the first oppor tunity and then disking at intervals of three or four weeks un‘il just De fcre planting, we will make an ideal soybaan secdbed and free it of weeds If the lesson of shallow planting for soybeans has not been learned, then remember that soybeans should not be covered deeper than one inch. Covering by merely pressing the seed into the surface with a roller will eive a better stand early in the sea son than planting to a derth of two inches of more. When planting with a drill or planter, see that machine is set and operated so as to cover the seed shallowly and at uniform depth, LET HIM TRY HENS A. M. Pool in Farm Life Life on a poultry farm makes the poultryman an ardent feminist. What ever his orinion gs to superiority of masculine mind and muscle, whatever his ideas as to the world depending on maun; after he has raised just one flock irom egss to the profit period. he will began to waver. T.et him keep at it for a few years, and unless he is one of the type who claim “I know I'm right. even if I'm wrong,’’ he will bow down to femin iinity supreme l And he will have sound financial Tedsons for it, too. He watches one ":u‘tor ancther of his promizing puliets is:grt ~a comb to be seen across the }ym’d. He separates the growing coci: i(?l'(f]f! and feeds them ir the forlorn | hope that they may bring semething THURSDAY, APRIL 8, 1935 . as Droilers. But he observes the amecunt of feed they consume in com paris'n with th(; quiet anrd well-be haved pullets 4in the other pen. And when he finally sells the cockerels for abcut what they cost him as new hatched chicks, sadly figuring the loss on he mortality and ten weeks feed, knowing that at very moment the femail. side of the house is worth- four or five timez that sum; I say, if a man is mentally capable of acquiring an ided, this is wheu he gets it, 3 I all incipient woman-haters could he got to spend six months cn a poultry farm there simpiy would’nt ‘e any such animals. : ———— e \ ONE THING AT A TIME ‘; Margar2t W.
