The year grows old,
The wind blows cold;
And orchards turn to mounds of gold;
A brownish tint on leafland wall,
And woodland’s garb begins to fall;
The green in pasture grasses ebbs, .
The dew transforms the spider webs;
Brown seeds take flight,
For next year’s site,
And frost appears at mountain height.

training might as well close up his
class-room and seek some other posi

the classrooms of many schools, with
out practical work or training for its
foundation, -is a farce. The instruc

there can no lasting good be expected
from agriculture taught solely indoors.

SUBSTITUTION.
The imitator is like the coun
terfeiter. He enters the field of
business with a cheaper, lower
grade article of merchandise,
made as a substitute for the gen
uine, and generally sold at a
cheaper price, arguing, as usual,
that it is “just as good.” The
dealer is persuaded to handle it
on glowing promises of enormous,
profits—much larger than the reg-
ular legitimate profit which is
made on the genuine article. The
imitator succeeds in playing upon
man’s natural avarice, places his
goods on sale with the dealer, and
instructs him to take advantage
of the public by substituting the
false article -for the genuine at
every opportunity. You can he
pretty sure that whenever you
ask for a well-known product and
the dealer tells you he has some
thing else that’s just as good, or
even better, the dealer is going to
make a greater, profit on that ar
ticle than the one you call for,
and in nine cases out of ten you
will get a much inferior article.
Some buyers are easily imposed
upon and this encourages the
“get-rich-quick” schemers to in
crease their substitutions. This
also discourages the legitimate
manufacturer who is putting out
articles of merchandise that rep
resent honest value to the con
sumer. Where a man has devoted
years of his life in perfecting an
article that he knows cannot be
excelled in quality; where he has
spent thousands of dollars in ad
vertising his goods; and where
these goods have been giving uni
versal satisfaction for a long
time, great injury results by per
mitting substitution to rob him
or his market and at the same
time rob the consumer by selling
him a, doubtful article at practi
cally the same price.
There is no law through which
such evil practices can be stopped.
The sole remedy is for the legiti
mate manufacturers to ask the
public direct not to patronize
dealers who try to substitute a
different brand of goods for the
kind wanted. All first class deal
ers know that it is poor business
to try to substitute something
else for the article wanted.

i About June'1st a .smooth-stemmed
vine, with arrow-shaped triangular
grayish green leaves, began blooming,
in our jungle by the side of the house.
In our hedges it seemed to thrive and
be at home. At first we began slash-
. ing it with scissors, pruning shears and
knives. It was so persistent and the
white-pink tinged 4 0Wers ’ beauty fi
nally won our admiration and now we
• are extremely fond of the hedge bind
weed. The blossoms sometimes pleas
ure over two inches in diameter and
three inches long. It blooms with us
from June to the middle of September,
but the flowers generally close by noon
each day. The flowers attract bees and
other insects in great numbers. It is
rather queer, too, -that a certain large
1 wild bee will remain in the flower
gathering nectar until the flower
closes, and then make no attempt to
escape. Whbn we first discovered this
; large bee in the (closed petals, we
thought that tie flower had played a
trick on it, but when the disturbance
became too great, it was an easy mat
ter for it to open the closed flower and
make its escape. I must confess that
I, Child-like, derive much pleasure with
the children in going around on our
daily visits, shaking these closed flow
er bells near my ear, and then listening
to the buzzing of the bee inside. So
we came to the conclusion that the bee
purposely remained in the closed
flower, either for a .cozy cot for rest or
else to both rest and work.

The other morning, rising at an un
earthly hour at the Hotel Winecoff to
< eateh an early train, whom should I
find in the lobby of the hotel, walking
about' briskly and joyously and with 'a
morning-dew look on his face, but
Frank T. Reynolds, assistant manager
of the Winecoff.
. “What in the world are you doing
up so early!” I asked, naturally sup
posing that hotel managers, who usual
ly have social duties in the evening,
meeting and greeting the guests of
the hotel, would take their time about
rising in the morning.
“We country boys always get up at
six o’clock,” replied Mr. Reynolds.
Now, Mr. Reynolds is not running
for office; neither does the magnificent
hotel of which he is assistant manager,
draw its patronage purely from agri
culturists—so his remark was not stud
ied. As a matter of fact, his very next
remark showed where his heart is.
“You should have been at our Whit
field County Fair at Dalton,” he said.
“It was the best and biggest ever held
and showed what a magnificent farm
ing country we have.
Our fair?” I “asked, laying emphasis
as- indicated.
“Yes, indeed; our fair,” said Mr.
Reynolds. “You know I’m from Dal
ton and Whitfield county is home to me.
I was one of those who helped start
the Whitfield fair and was its president
for six years. Now, there’s a county
fair for yon. The association today
owes practically nothing and owns
grounds and buildings valued at $18,000.
The fair has been a wonderful stimulus
to farming of the right sort in North
west Georgia. They raise cotton up
there, it is true, but it’s not a one-
crop country. A great deal of wheat
is grown, there is a large production of
oats, and stock raising is receiving seri
ous attention. It’s a great corn coun
try, too.
“In old Whitfield the people have
something else to do than simply ask
the price of cotton, and sell if the price
suits ’em. Just the other day I was
talking to a good friend who said he
had carried 3,600 bushels of wheat to
town the week before and sold it at
a good price. Another man remarked
that he was going to carry a few loads
of oats to town and sell and get some
ready money. Those who are raising
stock are making fine profits. Our
fair is showing in a wonderful way the
possibilities in farming. A girl grew
on one-tenth of an acre .tomatoes val
ued at $65. The boys’ corn clubs are
making some marvelous records.”
“I suppose you have the ambition
that most of us secretly cherish—to
own a farm and retire to it some day
and spend the evening of your life
there?”
Mr. Reynolds straightened up a bit
when he heard “evening of life,” and
one noticed that he was carefully shav
ed, his necktie had been arranged as
only an artist can tie it, there was
flower in the lapel of his coat, and he
had a surprisingly youthful look for a
man who is—well, say, in the forties.
“My dear boy,” he said. “I already
have the farm. It’s in old Whitfield,
too. Some day I ’ll go there for good. ’ ’
year. This is good under existing con
ditions. The Southern Fruit Grower is
advised by a large apple dealer at
Covent Garden, London,' that sales of
apples are at low ebb. Everybody is
economizing, and they are denying
themselves high priced fruit.
The effect the European war is hav
ing on prices of corn, wheat and other
grain and meat is causing many resi
dents of the city to seriously consider
rushing to the country, bay a farm,
raise and sell products and grow rich.
This is a great mistake, and a great
many disappointments will be result
ant. Farming is a scientific vocation,
and a city man who is not experienced
in farming is as likely to fail when
prices are high as at any othdr time.
Farming requires a knowledge of soils
and many other things, and until a
man is thoroughly familiar with the
different phases of farming and its re
quirements he had better leave the
business alone.
