LESS LEGISLATION AND MORE
LAW ENFORCEMENT
In the course of an address deliv¬
ered at the 1925 meeting of the Ar¬
kansas Press Association, A. C. Mil¬
lar, editor of the Arkansas Methodist,
^Jttle Rock, directed attention to
dangerous tendencies in , legislation
and in journalism, first speaking of
~
the disposition to legislate for the
benefit of American farmers and tell¬
ing his hearers that scientific farm¬
ing rather than a new law is the
one thing needful. The title of his ad¬
dress was “Dangerous Tendencies,”
and he next dwelt on the tendency to
berate and embarrass railroads, blam¬
ing them for minor specific short¬
comings instead of considering them
as a great whole and the need for
preserving our rail transportation
system for the advantage of the en
tire country.
^ 'Among other things he said: “We
demand quick cures, and often jump
to conclusions and accept quack rem
edies. The student of American his¬
tory who is not blinded by prejudice
of immature prepossession must ad¬
mit that much of our success has
been due to the majestic self-confi¬
dence of our pioneer forefathers and
their magnificent initiative. Now wt
pass laws on every conceivable sub¬
ject and try to secure a forced con¬
formity. The history of every great
nation of antiquity proves the un¬
wisdom of destroying local and indi¬
vidual initiative and setting up an all
powerful and all-pervasive central
government.
“Nature’s method^-God’s method,
if you please—seems to be to al low
large liberty and punish for mistakes.
Paternalism with infants is practical
love, but paternalism with maturity
is character-destroying. Let us have
the courage to oppose the adoption of
trival laws and demand that all meas¬
ures be thoroughly and openly digest¬
ed, and then let us relentlessly insist
upon the enforcement of the law.
Thus may we overcome some of the
evil tendencies of our fast-moving
age.”
Mr. Millar’s conclusions are gen¬
erally sound and may wisely and iust
)y be heeded by his fellow-journalists
in Arkansas and elsewhere for that
matter. Hasty editorial expressions
frequently do much more harm than
good, for the reason, as he points
out, that a subject has not been view¬
ed from all angles.—Manufacturers

TWO GEORGIA COWS ARE

Plain Gertie, a four year-old Jersey
cow owned by Pebble Hill Plantation

Guernsey Farm of Sandersville is
the champion of the breed in Georgia

ter. This is the latest of the eighteen
records made by Pebble Hill Farm,
others including a state class leader
and two holders of the American
Jersey Cattle Club Gold Medals.
Florham’s Favorite Queen, in 365
days produced 12,959.7 pounds of
milk containing 713.6 pounds of but¬
ter fat, equivalent to 839 pounds of
butter. This record places her at the
head of all the Guernsey breed in
production in Georgia.
The records of Fern Crest Dairy
Farm show that thirty-five cows
have produced an average of 9,758.9
pounds of milk, containing 499 pounds
of butter fat in a year. The average
age of the cows at the beginning of
the test was 3 years and 4 months,
The average production of all
herds having official tests made by
the State College of Agriculture has
increased steadily since the tests
have been conducted, it is stated by
those in charge, and the records of
cows in Georgia will compare favor¬
ably with those of any other state,
they say. .....,,

ARRANGING THE KITCHEN
WILL SAVE MANY STEPS
The old-fashioned kitchen, used as
a general utility and store room is
passing out rapidly and giving way
to the modern kitchen which is used
only for food preparation and serv¬
ing.
In a well planned kitchen there
are four centers from which the
work of preparing meals is carried
on, say home improvement special
ists of the Georgia State College of
Agriculture. They are the cooking
center, with the stove and certain
necessary utensils; the food
tj on center, consisting of the kitchen
ca bi ne t, the refrigerator and storage
cupboard; the water centeri with the

The fourth center is not a working
center, but is just as essential. It is
j the rest center, and a comfortable
rocking chair with reading material
should be provided where the house¬
wife may take a few moments of
rest from time to time while wait
ing on the oven.
The well-planned kitchen has as
few doors as possible, so that as
] much wall space as possible is saved.
J ' The window area should be one
fourth of the floor area. If the wall
space is limited, the window area
^ be increased by placing the
may
windows three or four feet form the
floor, with the longest line
1
to the floor .
Another suggestion made is to use
linoleum or similar material on
floor so that it may be kept
easily. A hard wood floor is good
kept in condition.
