The South’s Opportunity.
Tlie fact cannot be too often or too
atrongly Impressed upon our farmer, that
the present is, of all years, the year for
planting large cereal and food crops. There
are good business reasons why this is so,
and it is greatly to the interests of every
Southern planter that they give them care
ful consideration.
The war cloud that hovers, not alone
over the United States and Spain, but
over the < ntlre world makes it absolutely
certain that there is going to be a greater
demand for the cereals by the time the
next crop is harvested, in fact from now
on, than ever before—or, at least, than
has been the case for many years.
In the first place, the world's supply of
food products is practically limited just
now to the United States. It is generally
admitted that Argentina and India and
other agricultural countries have barely
more than enough for home consumption.
So that even to supply the natural demand
it will require all that this country ordi
narily produces.
But there is already an abnormal de
mand. Nearly every nation on earth is
engaged in making preparations for pos
sible or impending trouble. Even if there
should be no outbreak of hostilities in any
quarter the productive capacity of those
nations has been ©onsideraibly dimin
ished by a large draft of men for the army
and their demand for food products con
siderably increased in order to maintain
these armies.
But there is a stronger reason still why
food products are going to be dear before
the end of another year. War is almost
certain. It seems now almost impossible
to prevent a conflict between this country
and Spain. It is even more impossible, it
would set in. to prevent a conflict- between
eonie or all of the nations on the other
hemisphere. War, possibly the bitterest
the world has ever seen, may mark the
end of the present century.
Any man with enough business instinct
to make a success of farming should be
able to understand that these things in
sure him a market for his ceredls —and
tend to close the market for his cotton.
In oth< r words, food crops will rise in
value while cotton will sell for less than
the cost of production.
Then* is every reason, therefore, to be
lieve that the Southern farmer who has
thcinos! food products and the least cotton
<o sell next fall will make more clear
money than his neighbor who failed to
take advantage of present cinditions.
Heretofore the Southern farmer ‘has de
fended his all-co'tton theories by the cry
of "no market" for his food products.
*And, to ,t certain extent, he has been right.
‘Hut no such condition exists now or is
likely to exist during the next year or'two.
He has the world for a market for his
food crops now and for sometime to come,
and he neglects his own interests if he
does not plant accordingly.
According to the latest figures which
ban be obtained, the number of pupils en
rolled in the public schools of the United
States amounts to 14,379,078, or nearly 20
per cent of the nation’s population. Out
of 400,335 teachers employed, 130.309 are
males .and 269,956 females. The average
monthly salary paid to male teachers is
$47.37; the average monthly salary paid to
female teachers is $40.24. The number of
public school houses in the United States
is 240,968. and the value of all the public
school property aggregates $455,948,164.
The cost of public school education in the
United States per pupil is $18.92 annually.
These figures do not include the numerous
private schools of the country.
The World Arming.
In .another editorial The News directs
the attention of Southern -farmers to the
fact that warlike preparations throughout
the world make it absolutely certain that
there will be an enormous demand for food
products, and. therefore, advises Southern
farmers to plant more largely of corn,
■wheat and other cereals than ever before.
In this connection it is interesting to note
what the -nations of the world are really
doing in their preparations for war. An
Associated Press dispatch published a few
days ago, conveyed the information that
the naval estimates submurted by the ‘Brit
ish government to parliament for the year
are the largest in the history of the coun
try. being something like $118,000,000, and
that the combined army and navy budget
is no far below $250,000,000.
Russia is making similar preparations,
ns is shown tby rhe fact that the Czar has
issued an imperial ukase, in which he ap
propriates upward of $72,000,000 for addi
tional battleships and naval armament.
Both Germany and France are spending
enormous sums in increasing their navies,
and their standing armies, and both na
tions seem to be impressed with the fact
that they may be drawn into war almost at
any time.
Japan, Chili and Brazil are all adding to
their naval strength.
The Birmingham News, which calls at
tention to the above facts, points out the
causes for probable war among the differ
ent nations.
In the Western Hemisphere Spain and
Cuba are fighting, and war is thr* at-ned
'betwee-n Spain and the United States. Such
a conflict would most likely embroil the
powers of Europe.
'ln Asia Japan and England on one side,
appear to be arrayed against Germany’
Russia and France on the other, in the
quarrel over the division of China.
In Africa the French and English are on
the verge of hostilities, the result of the
land grabbing policy each is pursuing.
A conflict between any of the great na
tions of the world at this time threaten*
to involve several, if not all of them. War
either in America, Asia or Africa would
draw one or more outside European coun
tries into the conflict to some extent.
Who can doubt, in the face of these facts,
that the whole world may be a't war before
the end of the century—and that food pro
ducts will be worth more than anything
else that our farmers can raise.
John L Sullivan, being unable to get
anyone else to fight him, is now- w-illing
to content himself with Spain. How have
the mighty fallen.
It is Business News.
Here Is some advice from Manly M. i
Gillam, the nojed advertising expert who
made Wanna maker famous as an adver
tiser. This advice, which appears in the
current issue of Printers Ink, is valuable
to every live merchant, and should be
read.
Mr. Gillam says: ”A« to the medium or
mediums I believe most emphatically in
the daily newspaper. I believe the news
of the store should be treated very much
as if it were news of the world.
"Every day and changed every day," is
my motto for a department store adver
tisement. I would as soon think of prtot
j ing old news as old advertisements. The
| statements touching a live, progressive, ;
. up-to-the-minute store should be fresh
and bright. They must be to fit the case.” I
"There is help in booklets. There is ;
help in circulars. There is good in street j
car and poster work. I would use them all I
with discrimination; btft my main re- I
Hance w-ould always be in the daily news- I
paper.”
In another portion of his article on ad- ■
vert,sing he takes the position that women j
ore the greatest readers of advertisements,
and that their purchases are very largely
controlled by the advertisements which
they read. Mr. Gillam says:
ihe first thing is to have something
worthy to advertise; something that will
a i tract customers and tend to lift the rank
of the store in the minds of the people.
I believe that the desired effect is most
easily produced by every-day things. Now,
there are many things in every stock that
the average woman is familiar with. She
is a keen judge of qualities. If articles
of this kind are held up in the papers at
unusual prices, every woman will be quick
to comprehend the bargain side of it. If
at the store sshe finds these things true to
the telling She will be tempted to buy.
And She will certainly think belter and
better of 'the store that puts these tempt
ing things in her way.”
It being generally admitted that women
are the ones who read advertisements, it
follows that the afternoon paper is the
best place to put those advertisements.
For the simple reason that five women read
the afternoon paper where, one reads a
morning paper. They not only read it,
but they read it carefully, leisurely, and
if your advertisement is -there they will
see It, read It, comprehend it and forth
with plan the next day’s shopping—pro
vided, of course, you have properly im
pressed them with your advertisement.
Mark Hanna, Andrew Carnegie and
other Northern producers are forming a
pig iron trust as a final resort in their
efforts to overcome Southern compeition,
notes the Birmingham News.
What! Not Fools?
The Manufacturer’s Record sharply crit
icises those goldbugs who take the posi
tion that those opposed to them are dis
honest or idiotic, Says the Record: “To
call a man an anarchist is not the best
method of appealing to his reason. To treat--
a man as though he lacks common sense
is not the best way to Impress him with
your own virtue and intelligence. This
attitude is generally an unconscious one,
but it nevertheless merits correction.”
. The Record is itself a single-standard
organ, but it readily recognizes the as
slninity of those who assume that a gold
bug is more honest or more intelligent
than anyone else.
But why stop them? The effect of such
utterances has simply been to open the
eyes of the people. Fair-minded men have
looked about them and have made com
parisons. They have found ardent bi
metallists whose honesty and intelligence
would compare favorably with the honesty
and intelligence of the most rampant gold
bug in the country—even with Mark
Hanna himself.
And these comparisons have led think
ing men to reflect that if the goldbugs
are wrong in charging bi-metallists with
dishonesty and idiocy, 'they might also be
wrong in their idea as to the benefits of
the single gold standard.
Such reflections have pul people to
studying the question. And whenever a
man begins to study the financial problem,
with a sincere desire to get -at the truth,
it is only a question of time before he be
comes convinced that the single standard
makes money dear and everything else
cheap—and that this is just what he
doesn’t want.
But let them alone; let them continue
their abuse and the fools and knaves will
soon settle this question for themselves.
The Dalton Argus says: 'T'he Macon
News is about right. The a nW-Candler
forces are 'trying to whistle to keep up
their courage, but a good -many of their
lips are already failing to pucker. They
can’it whistle much. If Atkinson don't
come down for Berner, or Berner for At
kinson. they will make another effort to
stampede the Candler forces to some ‘good
old Democrat’ (like Gordon, f’rinstanee’,)
and call for a general Democratic love
feast to unite all Democrats, and so forth
and so on. Maybe both will come down
and cease a useles fight. But one thing is
certain, the people are going to stick to
Candler. They’ll not be sidetracked this
year.”
His honor Judge John Wyckliff, chief
justice of the supreme court of the Cher
okee Nation, is languishing in jail at
Vanita, I. T., on the charge of cattile
stealing. It seems that somebody is clear
ly guilty of contempt of court.
The Athens Banner, in commending
Senator Bacon’s position on free cotton
bagging anti ties, says: “Senator Bacon is
standing square up for the interests of the
South and is making quite a reputation for
himself.”
'Says ’the Carroll County Times: “The
anti-Candler papers are resorting to sonic
very despisable means to down the old
warrior. The Atkinsonites fooled -the peo
ple four years ago, but they can’t do it
again.”
Says the Sparta Ishmaelite: “Looking
over 'the field, the Ishmaelite finds no rea
son for changing its opinion that Candler
will head the list in the convention by a
majority over both his worty competitors."
Over the State.
Dublin Dispatch: Guess who the young
man is that called on his thought-to-be
best girl and asked her to perform on the
paludian for him. Guess he had a nice
time.
Dublin Dispatch: On las-’t Monday some
one entered Mr. Raymond Hughes’ dining
room, ate a hearty meal and then went on
his way rejoicing. Mr. and Mrs. Hughes
being away from home, the visitor or
visitors are supposed to have been tramps.
Dublin Dispatch: We can't imagine why
Mr. Arthur Graham goes to Sunday school
in a double-seated buggy by- himself.
Douglassville New South: One of our
young men carried his best girl to ride
last Sunday.
Monroe Advertiser: We heard the school
bell ring last Saturday night, and were
told that a young blind man lectured there
and gave some good music.
Americus Times-Rceorder: Gene Crow
der. a young moke wanted here, has been
nabbed in Dawson. Crowder parted his
wife’s hair with an axe handle among
other little domestic pleasantries.
Oglethorpe Echo: One of young men is
seriously contemplating the purchase of a
Ftetckage of Diamond Dye which will cost
him just one dollar and a half.
South Georgia Home: The writer had
the pleasure of dining with Mr. Dock
Dcekle and wife Sunday, and Mrs. D. is
up-to-date in the culinary art, and under

WILLJE THERE
Important Convention to Be
Held in Atlanta Next
Week.
Mi Os THE i®
Will 8e the Subject Under Discus
sion-Some Very Interesting
Statistics Gathered.
There will be an important conference in
Atlanta on March 23, 24 and 25 in the in
terest of the orphans’ homes of the south
east. Many , delegates are expected to at
tend and arrangements are being made to
properly entertain the visitors make
the conference a success in every way.
Macon will, of course, be represented at
this very interesting conference.
The conference will be composed of the
representatives of the several ohphans’
homes of the southeastern states and the
work of caring for the orphans will be dis
cussed. The methods and means«of the
several homes will talked of, and steps
taken to improve the work of these char
itable institutions.
The sessions of the convention will be
held at Trinity church and in the orphans’
homes about Atlanta.
The first session of the conference wilt
be held Wednesday night, March 23d, and
sessions will be held Thursday mornings,
afternoon and night and Friday -morning.
Questions of deep interest to the homes
and and the public generally will be dis
cussed, nad some valuable papers bearing
on orphans’ home work will be read. The
conference will 'be open and citizens inter
ested in the work will be invited to at
tend.
Drs. Jacobs, Boyd, Boone and Mumford,
Landrum and others will speak during the
conference and many ladies will read pa
pers on the work.
In speaking of the coming conference and
the work of the orphans’ homes in this
section, a gentleman prominently con
nected with "those institutions says:
“The aproaching conference of the or
phans’ homes to be held in Atlanta March
23, 24 and 25, for the southeastern states,
will be an important gathering. There are
very few that have the slightest idea of
the magnitude, of this important work. In
the twelve homes in Georgia alone there
are at present nearly 1,000 orphans besides
the many they have put into good homes.
There are probably in the five states
around Georgia 5,000 orphans and waifs
and every home is crowded. There are
over 100 begging admission into one of
them now, not to speak of the many at the
other doors.
“The public needs to realize the great
work 'being done. With the reports of
many of these homes in my hand, I find
that there is an almost universal require
ment that they must be absolutely desti
tute to get into one of these 'homes. Here,
then, are 5,000 destitute ones that 'are be
ing helped in a systematic, loving, careful
way, and- trained to work ami become good
citizens. ”-
“The friends of humanity ought to stand
by these noble institutions which are do
ing so much for the community as well as
for Christ. They ‘are doing in a systematic
way what save sthe community tens of
thousands of dollars. They are given good
common school educations, trained to reli
gion, loved into nobler lives and 'trained to
work. The expense of a child in these
homes varies from the Hebrew Home,
which spends S2OO per year per capita and
■does magnificent 'work. Our Baptist
home, $7 per month; Epworth orphanage,
$5.85 per month; Connie Maxwell home, $5;
Bethesda, SBO per year; ‘Methodist home,
Macon, SIOO per year; Masonic home,
$67.92 per year; Barium Springs, S7O per
year; Baptist Home, Alabama, $6 per
month; Baptist home, 'North Carolina, S6O
per year; Presbyterian home, Alabama, sl»2
per year; Thorn well orphanage, S6O 'per
year; Methodist home at Decatur, $4.50
per month.
“You see the average expense is about
$65 per year. The home at Decatur has the
lowest record, because under the admirable
management of Mr. and Mrs. S. iA. Taylor,
they raise on the place not only their
own vegetables,, grains, fruits, milk, but
ter, beef, poultry and pork, but are sell
ing some butter and are planning to raise
and sell many things. They hope soon to
put in an industrial school or workshop.
Every child is taught to make as much of
his living as possible, and with 100 or
phans they can do a great deal.”

TOMORROW NIGHT
The Baltimore Ball Team Will Arrive in the
City.
The Baltimore Orioles will reach Macon
tomorrow night and comence their spring
practices at the ball park. During their
stay here the Orioles will be quartered at
the Brown House.
Manager Hanlon has read some of the
players who have been kicking about com
ing South without pay, a lecture and tells
thew that they do not appreciate the good
treatment that he gives them.
It is not known what the team will de
cide when they find that the pest house
has been located at Central City park, al
though it is some distance 'from the ball
grounds. Usually the players use’the race
track for training purposes, and run
atouu-d it five or six times every day.
Os course this will be stopped this season,
and there are many who believe that as
soon as the team finds that the pest house
has been built at the Central City park
they will pull up and leave Macon for
seme place where threre has been no
smallpox this year.
