Thoughts For The Day Woe unto them that rise up early in the morn* ing, that they may follow strong drink; that con tinue until night, till wine enflame them. Isa. 5:11. , . It were better for a man to be subject.to any vice than to drunkenness; for all other vanities and sins are recovered, but a drunkard will never shake off the delight of beastliness.—Sir Walter Raleigh. lit , . PEAR TREES PROFITABLE. Pear growing in this vicinity in the past was one iif. the most profitable of all fruit crops, but of re cent years little attention has been paid to the culti- '.vation and growing of the pear for_ cooking and preserving purposes. The Keifer variety is one of the most productive of pear, growing to an enor mous size and some of them weighing, as much as two pounds. These pears sell rapidly for one dol lar a bushel and the demand for them is practically unlimited. Besides the orchard may be planted in the spring with oats and in the fall with peas and the stubbs and vines plowed in making a rich and fertile soil. A crop of pears will bring in dollars and cents as much as an average crop of cotton under normal conditions and if attention is given to this land of fruit it will prove to be one of the best pay ing industries for our farmers t. engage in. At the curb market and with the merchants, a ready sale can be found for every bushel of pears raised and brought to market. It is worth trying another year and it is worth the effort of planting trees for the future. W. EDITOR JOHN L. HERRING A distinguished citizen; a true and loyal Geor gian; a writer of more than ordinary ability; a builder in civic, commercial and moral circled* was the record of John Herring, editor of the Tifton Ga zette for many years. He was known throughout the state and among the newspaper fraternity was 'appreciated and held in the highest esteem as one of the most able and versatile'writers of the Georgia press. It is indeed unfortunate for the people of Tifton and the surrounding section and for the whole state for so gifted a man as he to be taken in the very prime of life from the field of usefulness he had made and occupied with ability and with credit to himself and to those who were associated with him. Ix'.Ofe all issues effecting the welfare of the state he as found battling for that which ho believed to be ht and his best efforts and his resources were ributed to the cause for the uplife and better- nt of his community. He waq a type of man whose ds will live long after him and when future rs take up the work of recounting the accom- lislimcnts of Tifton, his name will stand out promi- ently in its history as one of those who did his part nd did it well. May his memery be cherished and 'reserved through the ages to come; his ashes rest In eace and his soul awaken in a brighter world than INCREASE THE NUMBER OF DAIRY COWS There is no reason.why the number of dairy cows should not be increacod in this section and especially in North Gco.'gia In order to supply the demand for dairy products and cheese. It has been stated that there arc now sixteen creameries in'this section and that is enough. But is it? If there is a demand tot such products, why not increase in numbers the y cow and supply the demand? In New York - -nd Wisconsin, it is said that there is a cheese ’ every six miles. These producers ss’i tliolr ( in this state and at i\ profitable price. The iction in Georgia is only a drop in the bucket of isumption in this state. If we hav6 sufficient •ries for Athens would it not be a wise move- to establish a cheese factory in connection? Wo 1 not be satisfied to remain idle and console our- on the proposition that we have enough when tunitv for a paying industry is knocking at the and demanding entrance into the manufacturing :eld of prosperous proportions.

MODEL 101 IN MICMGJtSOLD (By Associatsd Pres.) L’Aanse, Mich.—Pequamlng. nine miles to the north of L’Anse, Is Henry Ford’s town.
