IT HAS COME TO PASS : Henry W. Grady, in his palmy days dreamed of an independent agricultural class in this country. In an editorial early in 1888, he said: "When every farmer shall eat bread from his own fields and meat from his own pastures, and distribut ed by no creditor and enslaved by no debt, shall sit amid his teeming gardens and orchards, and ,vine- yards and dairies and barnyards, pitching his crops : to his own wisdom and growing them in indepen dence, making cotton his clean surplus and selling it in his own time and in his chosen market, and not at the Master’s bidding—getting his pay in cash and not in a receipted mortgage that discharges his debt, but does not restore his freedom—then shall be breaking the fullness of our day.” If Mr. Grady was living today his fondest dreams would be realized and all that he prayed for, worked for, and wrote for in the hope of developing the ag ricultural interests.of the south would be realized. Diversification, of crops has brought to this country the condition which was utmost in the mind of this great man and the greatest desire he had in life. He wanted to see the Resources of our agricultural in terests developed and -our farmers benefitted from the fruits of their labors. He foresaw the great op portunities passessed by our section of the country going to waste for the lack of improvement and de velopment. It rested heavily upon him and through "Nis tongue and pen he proclaimed to the. world the advantages here awaiting the time for our people to awaken to their opportunities and become inde pendent and self-sustaining. That day has arrived ond wo are now living in an era of prosperity which was predicted by Mr. Grady thirty five years ago. FOREIGNERS FOR FARMS IN SOUTH The New York Times, one of the ablest edited and best newspapers from a news standpoint in the coun try, suggests that the people of the south make an ef- ' flirt to secure the better type of immigrants K> this country to settle on farms in order to make up for Mra icss of the thousands of negroes who have been migrating north for the past two years. The sugges- tinii, of course, is offered in the most friendly and kindliness manner and with the sole purpose of help ing to rebuild and rehabitate the millions of acres of devastated farm lands in this section of the country. However, it is a serious question as to whether it would be for the best interest of this section or not the average type of immigrants make undesirable d’izetis and their customs and. habits would not har monize with those of our people who are native-boni and represent the best in the nation. As Major Gen eral Wcod stated in a public'address in Boston during the war that "the purest blood of the Anglo-Saxon race was possessed iJy those people born and reared south of the Mason and Dixon line.” There is much -truth in the statement and the condition it brought about more from the fact that a very small percent age of immigrants ever settle in the south. Our peo ple have been kept free from outside nationalists in a great measure which ac counts for the pure Ameri can blood of the southern people. Western farmers would be a blessing to this sec tion of the country. They are thrifty and economical in their habits of living and kpow how to accumulate and improve lands. If a movement could be inaugu rated which would encourage and secure colonies of these people, the south would profit from their com ing and living with us. Rather than encourage the settlement of immigrants, let us look forward to some movement which will interest the western farmer in our lands and climate and offer to them inducements fb lorate with us and become citlzena of our state and (oui)try. oApp le §auce It doesn't matter whether you do yout* Christmas exchanging early or not. .SUNDAY, DECEMBER 3ff, m3.

ITCH COWS WITH TUBERCULOSES K ( .-JPH there may be some criticism of tho rules aTOregulations of the board of health controlling the inspection of cows and milk before it is allowed to bo placed on the market, yet ail must agree that the requirements aa laid down by the officials is purely fnr 'he protection of the consumer. Tuberculosis has ’nftvn to be quite a common disease among cows and there are hundreds of tubercular cases traceable di rectly to the use of milk from cows so affected. . The Vafdosta Times in commenting on a news item which appeared in this paper giving an account of forty-one cows found to have tuberculosis in this section tells of a case which occurred in that county. It say.': n The case referred to was that of W. D. Odum, ".In n od the milk of a tubercular-cow because - he r'icl net believe that people could contract the disease in this manner. The result was the death of his wife, the permanent disability of his son and a long seige in the hospital for his two daughters. He was convinced then that thero was danger. 5 Th ere arc many more incidents of this character, no doubt, occurring in Georgia almost . daily and unless there is something done by the officials to check the malady there is no telling to what extent the spread of tuberculosis may reach. j Athens and Clarke county are indeed fortunate in having a board of health composed of men who are ever alert to every interest for the protection of the If Ruptured Try This Free KILLED in 30 Mlnvtee wftft Par-a-si t-i-cide 80c frem H.
