O Last Tuesday was gardening day with our business manager. He was out of the office all day, had a ne gro man and a mule and plow hired for the day and planted one pint of Irish potatoes, sixteen grains of corn and two dozen bean seed. He’s very happy now. o Editor McWhorter and ids kind, of Winder, gave a great feast In t Monday to several thousand guests but he did not invite us over. Don't know why, but do know it was ttint Way: All right, sir; when our yellow legged chickens get ripe, we’ll heap coals of fire on your bnld head and on the bald head of broth or‘Faust, and invite both of you over to a eefil feast. — Commerce News. We art 1 real sorry now that we did not invite Editor Shannon over.

We beg pardon for the oversight, and assure you that we will have you. around next time. O— “This is March, the month in which to have ‘had colds’, to set hens, to plant corn and to drink sassafras tea for the blood. It used to be the law in every house hold for all to drink sassafras tea during M&rch. It is said that it will thin down the blood and thus keep you out of trouble. When the blood is too thick it is said people are liable to get into trouble over arguments on the mode of baptism, the tariff, the tick law, the boll weevil, and the neighbors chickens that are prone to scratch up the newly planted gar den. Old times, however, warn against drinking sassafras ten longer than four weeks as it is liable to make the blood too thin, which might cause chills or make one join the Socialist party or vote the Republican ticket.” —Exchange. O Chaingang Sentences Judge Fortsou is winning the approbation of our people in putting chaingang sentences on all violators of the prohibition law who are found guilty in his court. This is the only way in which this demoraliz ing traffic can he broken up, and all good citizens are heartily in favor of putting a stop to it. When a man deliberately violates a law of bis state, he ought to lie punished in such a way as to make him feel it, and tines seem to i>e ineffective, l’ut every one of them to work on the chain gangs.

According to the Jackson Herald, the School Com missioner in Atlanta is in favor of returning to the old methods of education. He Ls tired of new-fangled tilings, for nowhere have so many fads been introduc ed as in the system of education. We suppose the school commissioner to which the Herald refers is the county schdol superintendent of the county schools. We have seen nothing to this ef fect from State School Superintendent Brittain. How ever, we are inclined to think that the “visualized sys tem of reading” has had a tendency to make poor spellers out of tile students. It ought not to if the proper attention was given to teaching the children to spell, hut rigid often they are rushed on in their reading and in ver enough attention given to make good spellers of them. We would like to hear what Brit tain says on the question. He is in better position to pass on this subject than any man in the State. Thq Land of Opportunity In his recent tour of the South the noted economist, Roger Bahson, was especially impressed by the diver sity as well as the richness of this region’s natural . advantages. It abounds in coal, iron, and water pow er; it has excellent means of communication; and, besides, its agricultural products are of the kind that will be in larger and larger demand as the country waxes more prosperous. Touching this last consideration, Mr. Babson says: “The per capita consumption of wheat, the main pro duct of the Northern farming States, does not increase much as the people become prosperous. But the de mand for cotton, sugar, beef, and legumes increases very much with prosperity. As tlie people become better off they eat more vegetables. Hence the great 9 opportunity of the South lies in diversified farming, breaking up the large tracts into small farms, the introduction of good stock, and the planting of more legumes. With the finest agricultural opportunities in the country, the South to-day. does not feed her self.” Particularly are these observations true of Georgia. All the chief staples are produced, or are producable, within her fertile bounds; cotton, wool, flax, silk, wheat, corn, oats, barley, rye, cattle, swine, sheep, poultry; and then such a wonderous variety of vegeta bles and fruits ns few lands this side of paradise have known. With all these resources however, the State is not yet self-sustaining in the matter* of food stuffs, nor is a tithe of her manifold natural treasure yet developed. Georgians import millions of dollars worth of products which lie latent all about them, but and fail to export hundreds of millions which they could produce. These are the very conditions, however, that mark the frontier of opportunity. Having the resources, we can bring to pass the development; but by no strength or skill could we ever create the riches with which nature has dowered us. For those who share in this development goodly rewards are certain. No wonder Mr. Babson, with his practical eye and seasoned judgment, declares: “The young man of the North I should advise to go South rather than West. Certainly the South Atlantic States offer agricultural ly, Industrially and economically better opportunities to the young man of to-day than does South America —and I know South America.” —Atlanta Journal. O Wo hope every business man in Winder will attend thd noonday prayer meetings to be held at the court house next week.
