Thi» question is often asked, but you ( will note in the replies many qualifies-: tk>n« and explanations. “If I could make it better." one win ■ay. “If I could keep the good pert and cut out the bad part,” another will an swer. But that wouldn't be your life lived over again, and the question Is narrowed down to a positive one. “Would you live your life over again. Just for the pleasure of living?” I will say. no." and try to give my reasons why 1 say “no.” The element of uncertainty in our lives las we have really lived them) has been, tn the main, a blessing. We didn't know what was ahead of us. and while our pleasures may have been increased, our defeats and dangers were not anticipated. We were spared that much of weary waiting for what was inevitable and im mutable or obliged to be. God is merci ful In withholding the future from our selves, because we would never have time or Inclination to think on better things if we bad to take it with no hope of change, and could see the end from the beginning. If we could improve upon our mistakes and appreciate what we tonmerly disre garded or overlooked as we went along, every day. then I might be anxious to go over the same path for the satisfaction this change or improvement might af ford roe. but to live it all over Just as it was would be the most unbearable tread mill work that I can imagine. Its same ness would be horrible. I can only go this way but once, blessed be his Name, and 1 hope to spend eterni ty In thanking Him for rescuing me from dangers that I never dreaded, because I never saw them, and for giving me sweet er pleasures than I ever could have found for myself I want to go. also, in his own good time. Sheep Culture for (ieorgia Farmer* Dear Mrs. Felton: I have been reading your good letters for a long while and think you are doing a good work When The Jounmal comes I look for your page first, because you talk sc mueh like my dear old mother and grand ma. both of whom have been dead sev eral years I am anxious to see what good, live subject you are going to write on. I wish The Journal was a dally pa per ’ and you could write every day. Tour fetter on the tariff (on wool) April the tth. Interested me. for I do love the little woolly sheep and I like to wear the good woolen • stockings and woolen clothes that can be made of wool. Dear Mrs Felton, the doys destroy a heap of sheep. I know, but our men folks destroy more than the dogs in this part of Georgia. The most of them don't want anything but cotton. Cotton is king of all tn this part of the country (Hart county). Last fall I had six fine tur keys and my next door neighbor threw a stone and broke the leg of the finest gobbler I had. because the turkeys stray ed in his cotton patch. He complained they were knocking out his cotton. The turkeys were not over 300 yards from home: so you see we can't raise turkeys; much less sheep. I once kept two or three sheep simply to go with my cow. I had one ewe that I kept 15 years and I never saw her ten steps away from the cow. She would jump a high fence to follow. I had to carry my cow half a mile through the field to the pasture and the sheep would follow. She would never bite a blade of corn; walked along does behind the cow and when she got home or out to the pasture she just walked tn like the cow did. I think every farmer who is able to keep a cow could keep a sheep. The sheep will live on the waste of a cow. There is always some food that will drop on the ground or on ma nure in a place where the cow is fed and the sheep will pick it up. Sheep will eat weeds and grass in the pasture that the tow will not eat. One or two good sheep will yield enough wool for a common sized family a whole year. The people have done away with the old manner of rasinig and consuming the wool. But they could have woolen mills built again as well as cotton mills if the farmers would raise the wool which they can do. if they would. I do believe we would not have so much consumption In our isnd if the people would wear more heavy woolen clothes. In my mother’s time there were few cases of consumption and the women and children wore heavy wool stockings and underwear. I can remem ber when mother would weave all my dresses and in winter our dresses were made of llnsey. but nowadays they do not wear any wool at all. If they do buy wool cloth it is ,■ little in a top dress spun as fine as wool can be spun. The most of our women want something fine and stylish. They do not care sot the comfort there is in a woolen gar ment. Heavy cotton will keep the body warm, but it will not keep out the dampness like wool cloth. A spinning wheel and a woman knitting would be a show to the most of the young folks of today. I spin and knit for my family of five, and I can't see how working people can do without wool socks and stockings. I have two little girls and if God spares them (and me) I arc going to learn them how to card and spin and knit. I know a farmer can keep two or three sheep with the cows in spite of the dogs The sheep will go to the cows for protection and they wilt drive the doge away. A sheep is a sensi ble as well as a harmless animal. They know who cares for them. But we can't tell a cotton farmer anythihg. They know it all. They will say. we ran t raise hogs because there Is no acorns, and we can't raise sheep b*<aaih’ there is no more woodland to pasture them and we can't RINGS FREET—> w Oaad name and tor 11 P l *'** °t R»*lry to ' mi lat lOcentttarb.

I know an old farmer oo or more years of age who raised enough corn to feed his little stunted hog a few times and the first ears he threw in the pen it scared the hog so bad it jumped out of the pen. The most of the farmers in this country If they plant com at all. they will wait until the last of June or the first of July to plant it and they think five or six acres will make a big crop, and if they can't make sufficient corn to do them on that much land they will say it “don’t pay us to raise corn.” “Let's Join the farmer’s union and buy corn at our own price.” When he can't buy com at his own price he will buy it at the price he can get it for. He will stop up the cracks in the stable to keep the chickens out and lock the crib and smokehouse to keep his wife from feeding the chickens, and put himself trouble to give a little meal out to bls wife for dinner and he will let his mules, hogs, chickens and everything on the place go half-starved Just to get to raise six or eight-cent cotton, and tnen seeks to be a membe: of the Farmers’ union, and buy com. mules and flour, meat and fine buggies and fine clothes all on a credit. If the creditor breaks then he will laugh and say he is glad of it. for he was Just living off of the farmers. MRS. J. O. K. Lavonia. Ga.. R. F. D. t No. 4. DESPE RAtFbLACK’ HUNTED BY POSSE SWAINSBORO, Ga.. April a.-Sheriff T. A. Fields and his corps of deputies are still hunting for Allen Bush, the desperate negro for whose capture tlfere has been offered a reward of six hundred dollars. Reports say that he is in hiding in the thick swamps of Fifteen Mlle -creek and that he has been seen at various times there by different parties. He manages, however, to elude the officers, who are de termined to catch him at whatever cost. Bush’s calendar of crime for the past two years is about complete. He was committed to jail about two years ago on some felony charge. By some means he made his escape and was not seen nor heard of again until a few months ago, when he returned to the county and shot his sister and some other members of his family, killing his sister. The sheriff was notified and went to the scene of the crime for the purpose of arresting the perpetrator. As soon as the officer's presence was made known to Bush, he ran with the officer in hot pur suit. As he passed the house of Mr. Willie Edenfield, he fired upon him as he sat at his fireside with his babe in hi« arms, inflicting a painful if not seri o | wound. At the time of this shooting tl.c officer was in search of him, but pow erless to prevent it. Later he fired upon a Mr. Byrd, against whom he had a grudge. He has positively declared that there are three or four men whom he in tends to shoot before he leaves or sur renders. The section of the county in which he is supposed to be hiding is considerably wrought up and it is not believed that he can much longer openly defy arrest. Sheriff Fields is still searching for some clue to the postoffice robbery at Lexsy recently, when some unknown party broke Into the store of Youmans Bros., at that place, and robbed the postoffice of 840 in money and stole valuables from the store. As yet they have been unable to find any circumstance that would enable them to associate this crime with any particular De>»on. COTTON SEED CRUSHERS CLOSE ATHENS SESSION ATHENS. Ga., April 20.—There was brought to a happy close Tuesday after noon, at the State Agricultural college, the first annual conference of the Cotton Seed Crushers' association, the live stock raisers. the dairymen and prominent planters of Georgia who had gathered here for a two days’ cour*e of study on the value and uses of cotton seed pro ducts. As a result of this conference it is felt that these kindred industries have been brought into closer relation than they have ever been. So well pleased are all who attended that there has been x tendd, already, an invitation for a sec ond annual meeting under the same aus pices. next sprilng. Instead of two short sessions today, as I the program had been arranged the vis itors gathered at the auditorium of the agricultural college an hour ahead of the time set on the program and remained in session until the last set of resolutions was passed and practically all of the cruhers left on ( the afternoon trains for their respective homes. The day's progra m was equally as In teresting as that on Monday, and even more largely attended. As was to be expected Dr. Soule was the chief and most interesting speaker of the day. He delivered two most interesting lectures and followed thes with answering any number of questions in regard to his talks. The first lecture: “Computing Ra tions Containing Cotton Seed Meal and Hulls for Various Classes of Live Stock,” was illustrated with stereopticon slides. The second: “The Relation of Improved Live Stock to the Economic Utilisation of Cotton Seed Meal and Hulls in Geor gia.” was too, and proved most interest ing. Prof. Milton P. Jarnigan lectures on “Organising Breeders’ Associations for the Introduction Live Stock Into Geor gia." and that of Professor DeLoach, on "The Fertilising Value of Cotton Seed Meal" concluded the conference. REDDISH IS GONE, SCHOOL MONEV, TOO W. B. Reddish, for two years manager tt the Atlanta branch of the Moler Sys tem of Barber colleges, has disappeared, and with him. according to John A. Moler, t.uitor of the company, has gone between -’.OOO and >3,0(0. which should have been t ;rned over to the home office at Chi cago. Mr. Moler arrived in Atlanta Sunday evening and found that Redd'sh had been missing since Friday morning. Monday morning Mr. Moler located Reddish’s household goods, worth it Is said, about and had them attached. Reddish, who was married, had apart ments at 175 South Pryor street. He dis appeared Friday morning, and it is said his wife left Saturday night. There is no intimation where Reddish has gone other I than the fact that he oruered the storage company to *hip his house furnishings to Seattle, Wash. To other persons, how [ ever, he Is alleged to have stated that he was going to New Orleans on a business trip. Folly of I’cssimisni Bostcn Transcript.
