MOTHERHOOD AND PROFESSIONS
Whether women can combine a pro- |
fessional caveer with the duties of
wife and mother has been a moot
question in London since the learned
women, chiefly single, gave the ball
another sprlghyfl,\' fling at the l'ni_i
versity Women's conference in Am.

Opponents of women entering the
Jearned professions in the old fashion,
ed days used to argue that neither
luh(' brains nor the bodies of women
L were equal to the strain, But it has
been brough out in England that near.
v all medical women appear to have
ound no difficulty in combining their
exacting professions with marriage
and motherhood.
Women of science, however, are too
gcientific to think much of matrimon;

‘ PAYING FOR TRAVELING
Savannah Press: % |
l That Americans who travel like to
travel under luxurious conditions is
shown by the recent publication of
the earnings of the Pullman Com
pany for the fiscal year ending July
31st. It will perhaps surprise many
of the readers of the Press to know
that the Pullmany company carries
on its cars practically 100,000 peo
ple a day, the exact number being
09,264,
The Pullman Company for the
vear under review, set a new high
record in earnings grossing a little
more than $99,000,000, according to
the report of B. . Carry, president
of the company,
But Mr. Carry declares that the
net eamings weer only $3.28 a day
for each car and represented not
more than 5 percent on a fair valuc
of the properties, He also says that
rates are only 20 percent higher
than fifty years ago, although costs
have inereased more than 60 per
cent gince 1913,
It would seem from what Mr, Cur
ray says while the passenper is
granted cvery coustesy and pve
comfort on the Pullman care 1%
the company is not making any tro
'm(-mluus amount of money, heeous ;
of its large expenses. But that it s
doing pretty well ig shown by he
fact that its net incode for 1925
was equal to $10.20 a share, while
the earnings for 1926 yrun up to $32-
42. a share.

The Sanford, (Fla,) Herald reiates
an interesting story told by H. M.
Cottrell of the Georgia Bankers As

of sweet potatoes, It is worth reading
The Herald says:
His story has to do witii a man
of Valdosta, Georgia, who s
known by hisz admiring friends as
“the Sweet Potato Fanatie.” The
man‘s other name ig I, S. Shocer,
and he drew attention to his
sweet potato hobby by bringing
from Porto Rico the best seed
he could find, The crop from the
Porto Rican cceding wag one hitr

which thirty-five bushels were of
the best grade. |

Care in the selction of seed for
any kind of crop is worth many
times the time and cost.
*Bad seed or poor seed need not be
expected to yield as abundantly as
good sced. The Valdosta has has
shown that this applies to sweet po-
tatoes and it will apply just as con
vincingly o other crops.
