The Farmer as a
*Business” Man
In the minds of most people the
retail merchant 1s simply a seller
of goods, but, as a matter of fact
the - retail merchant is as much a
buyer as a seller, and if his buy
ing is not done as_carefully and
intelligently as his selling, failure
is certain. The farmer has regard
ed himself as merely a producer,
and the world seems to have ac
cepted him at his own valuation;
but in truth, he must be as much
a seller as a producer of farm pro
ducts. To sell-farm products re
quires something more than sales
manship alope. The merchant, if
he succeeds, must buy what the
people or his 'castomers want.
The farmer must also, if he 15 to
be successful, not only produce
what is wanted, but must slso put
his products on the market in the
form they are wanted. Hereagain,
is where the Southern farmer has
failed most grieviously. Instead
of producing what was wanted and
putting in on the market in accept
able form he has produced what
he liked” and offered it in a form
causing himself -the least trouble.
He has done this, not so much be
cause of any lack of desire to con
form to market demands, but
because of a lack of knowledge of
the market demands, and ' this
again, is another fruitfyl field for
co-operative effort.—The Progres

Judge Fite Further
Abuses The Court
Atlanta, Oct. 17,—*“How~ long,
Oh Cataline, will you abuse our
patience?” In that familiar quota
tion from the Latin school book.
familiar to all, is summed up the
present attitude of the Georgia
court of appeals toward Judge A.
W. Fite of the Cherokee ciicuit,
who has already been once cited
for contempt and fined $5OO.
On top of that hearing, Judge
Fite went home and not only said
*‘worser” things about the court
than he had said before, but Im
punged its very humor and integ
rity by declaring that the decision
finding him guilty and fining him
was prepared and written out be
fore his trial began.

his original sction in criticizing
the court acd that he would lead a
movement to have the court abol
ished, s
"~ And now everybody is wonder
'ing what ‘the eourt of avpeals will
do. They will hardly cite him for
contempt agein ‘w.thout sending
‘him to jsil, and they are’ loath to
do that, not- only because the
judge is advancing in years, but
‘because after what he has now
said he is completély in their
power if they want to send him to
jail. The very fact that he is at
their merey, with no appeal makes
them slow in taking any new ac
tion. However, the court of ap-
Epeals has been absolutely silent on
‘the subject, -

The Fall Weed Crop
On most farms at this sea<on
weeds of many kinds are blooming
and ripening seed. They are to
be found in the pastures, in the
odd corners of cuitivated fields,
along creeks and fences and ditch
baaks and terraces, in the garden
and the early truck patches per-.
haps. To allow all these weeds
to mature means that there will be
‘the sawe abundant supply next
!yeur, and to allow thcm to die and
;drv up standing means that their
one value, their ability to add to
’the bumus contents of the soil,
‘will largely be lost.
~ One of the jobs demanding
special attention just now is the
cutting down of all these irtru
ders. They should have been cut
before seed began to form, of
course: but better late than never.
It will pay to cut them any time
before frost rather than to leave
them standing.
~ In the pastures and wherever it
can be used the mowing machine
is' the best weed destroyer. A
good mowing machine properly
used can do a lot to add to the
fertility of the soil. Whenever
there is a little time it should be
put to work; and it will pay to
‘make a little extra effort to keep
it going. Fewer weeds next year,
better crops, better land, acd a
‘more attractive farm will be the
result. :
In many cases, however, it will
be necessary to depend upon oth
er means—the scythe, the hoe, ete.
This is more strenuous work and
much slower than if done with a
mower, but it should rot on that
account be neglected. Clean fence
rows and ditch banks not orly add
to the looks of the farm but also
to its profits. Even if it is too
late to prevent those big weeds in
the barnyard and about the garden
fence from re-seeding themselves,
it is better to have them lying on
the ground and beginning to de
cay than to have them standing up
stark and impudeat through balf
the winter advertising the fact that
