Jeavltii-' them with little to complain appearing recently In The Wall .street journal. Tho editorial Is headed "Conatructlve Agriculture” and throughout cltlea the great n ark that Dr. Soule la doing In thla par, Of the united Staten for tha betterment of farma In goneral and especially tho farmera themaelvea. It reads In part aa follows: "There la admittedly, unhappl- „r»s and active discontent In our South Atlantic staten, particularly eastern (ieorgta and 8outh Carolina, These are agricultural states and for two seasons unfavorablt weather tn d boll weavil have made aad In roads upon the farm Income, often changing It to toes. But a cour- ascuus and encouraging call to ac tion for the coming aeason has just gone forth from, Dr. Andrew M. president or the Georgia State Colega of Agriculture. CAN GROW MORE COTTON Without minimising the gravity cl tho weevil situation. Dr. Soule tells the farmers of Georgia that they can raise 60 per cent more cotton than last year, with other crops, take—at. least $260,000,900 [rum the soli. What a Qodaand such a- production ssenri* maaw-to the stats of Oaorgla! It would mean the repayment of a portion tf the obligations accumulating over the past- two yeays. It would maintain the public welfare lnsU- tutluns, leave something for per- sunal comfort and psrhaps a bal ance In th# savings banka. Thla auuld be a great contrast to con ditions which, a year ago, brought about so many failuraa of banka and merchants because of tha loss ut cropa When the south stops buying because of such loaa the (mistrial centers in the north also (eel the effects. •Do away with the one-crop eye- trm Is Dr. Boule'e counsel.

By Chas. E. Martin The paltry sum allowed the University of Georgia as a maintenance tuna is again Il lustrated by an article In the Alumni Record for March. Dr. Brooks, the editor and wno Is also secretary of the Alumni, wrote to a number or presidenti of state colleges In the neigh boring states to Georgia. Here are a few of the answers received: > University of Alabama: -The maintenance fund for 1022-23 la $163,600 and the last legislature appropriated $116,000 for a wo man's building.” The University of Georgia “exists” on <86.000 maintenance fund annually and It has been twenty years since a dormitory was built «f state appropriated funds The University of Mississippi: “The maintenance fund for 1022-21 to $160,000 and three years ago the legislature ap propriated $750100 for buildings Five new dormitories are be ing completed.” Look again at Georgia's paltry sum. 385,000 annually and we are the empire state of the Houth! But are wa really when it comes to higher education 7 The University ict Florida: “The current maintenance fund to $350,811 and the lust legisla ture appropriated 3100.000 ror - buildings and we expect tile next legislature to give us *1.- 011.260.” This to Florida n state almost unheard of in collegiate circles a few years ago. Ana— What has Georgia's Universi ty 7 A paltry 385.000 for mainten ance and no appropriations ror buildings The great strides made in tno atnto of North Carolina tor tne state university are too well known to need comment. Georgia's university may be the oldest state .college In tne country and should by right ' of our commonwealth's standing aa tha "Empire” state of tne South be the greatest, at least In the South but It Is far out distanced by practically everjt other Southern Institution that bears the name of the mother state. Klgthy five thousand dollars maintenance annually! Wnat a plight we would be ln-ir :t were not for the loyalty and love for “Old Georgia” on the part or those who, even despite the paltry <36.000, make the Uni versity what It |s! But there to a limit even to ’■ loyalty and unless Georgians wake up loyalty will not con tinue ti ■ hold the efficient per sonnel for their University—no. not a paltry 335,000 per year.

Oliver of Savannah, ’hat gone to Dublin to attend the state hoard of direction, gathering in Dub lin. The according of activities the Kiwanians with the now qrystailing plan to co-operate with the farmers of the state in a definite plan for progress is one of the features promised at the planning conference of the state di rectors, of this growing civic or- ganization. ‘To aid in securing better markets for better products in Georgia” Mr. Oliver declares to be the slogan of the Kiwanis clubs of Georgia this yegr. The stated objectives planning in the co-operative scheme of the clubs over the state is set forth as fol lows, to be adopted at the Dublin meeting: First.

Insist that, in addition i to planting cotton and staple grain crops, each one-horse farm er have as a basis, three to six good milk cows, two to three good brood sows, twenty lo forty good brood hens—all to be purebred. Fourth. Locate in a Kiwanis city a dairy, food mill, a potato curing house, a syrup refinery, and a canning factory. Fifth. Locate in a-Kiwanis city a warehouse in which grain and nut crops, such as corn, peas, vel vet beans, pecans and peanuts may be stored, and warehouse re ceipts be issued thereon, so that such warehouse receipts may be used as collateral in the banks of our state, the same aa cotton warehouse receipts are now used.
