WHAT THE PARTRIDGE DOES
Jfntrojrs WmtIIi During Nesting
Seaton and in Winter.
Dear Mr. Herring)
We are pleased to note what you
aay regarding the protection of the
partridge and well remember that on
previous occasions you hare express
ed you r belief that he is the farm
ers’ friend. . .
While it is true that during the
fall and winter months they do not
devote much time to hunting insects
yet durin gthe nesting season they I
destroy great numbers of them.i
Then in the winter around fence
corners and old stumps they con
sume vast quantities of weed seeds.
They delight to search for bugs andj
worms at a season of the year when
the farmer is too busy.
One thine is certainly true :.-t The
scarcer birds become the more in
sects we have. The more insects
the smaller our crops of fruit, grain
and vegetables. The smaller the
crops the higher the cost of living.
Of course we are not discussing
the boll weevil problem when we
speak of insects , for they have not
reached this county. .We have owned
at different times’three farms but
have yet to kill the first partridge on
either of theta.
■ Continue to warn the people of
the danger of losing the cattle
brought in ffom tick-free territory.
A $200 Hereford from Siloam, Ga..
• died within three weeks after being
brought here last June. A choice
milk cow shipped here from Atlanta
in October lived only ten days.^H
Prevention is better than cure for
there seams to be no cure. People
who listened to advice bought young
calves of the desired breed and gave
them to n cow to raise and are well
pleased with the results.
We rejoice with you in living to
sec the people for whom you have I
labored so long show their apprecia-
i •tlon of your untiring efforts in their
r behalf. It helps to keep a fellow
young and makes him decide thathe
■Mot
as not outlived his day of useful-
ness.
We also had a pleasant surprise
last week when, after two years of
demonstration work- among these
people, we receled a unanimous re
quest. not only from the grand jury,
hot also from the county Board of
Education and the County Commis-.
sioners, for a continuance of busi
ness nt the same stand.
Weil, get the boys to give you a
furlough and come over. Be sure
and bring the old suit so we can go
fishing. That truthful fisherman who
said, “We have toiled all night and
caught nothing," never fished at St.
•Marys or he would not have made
ifthat statement They are plentiful
and an amateur can land them.
Sincerely yours.

is improving.
This is true of Tifton, Poulan,
Sylvester, Douglas, Moultrie and
other places.
Ty Ty Is a notable exception.
The railroad found several fam
ilies here—regular old-timers, some
of them descended from Georgia’s
first inhabitants—and many of
these, with their descendants, are
still living here. They had alwaya
been in comfo/table circumstances
—of that happy condition of "neith
er poverty or wealth”—and they
went on, calmly and quietly, im
proving tilings and seeing that their
children were given better oppor
tunities than ever fell to their owr
lot.
And so the place continues to im
prove, all its inhabitants Southern
ers and most of them Georgians,
with not a foreigner among them.
Ty Ty has never enjoyed (?) a
boom, nor does it wish anything in
the way of meteoric or spectacular
growth. We are doing very well,
thank you, and attending strictly to
our own affairs.
AU REVOIR.
The September number of the
Axilian closed the first volume, and
not only the first volume but the
only one in that form.
The Axilian has not died a natural
death, which is the deadest death a
periodical can die: it hns only passed
on to larger and better things. The
people of Ty Ty demanded local
news, and, of course, local news
was an impossibility in a monthly.
Ty Ty ia not yet sufficiently strong
to support anything bigger than the
Axilian; Arrangements were made
for space in .the Tifton Gaxette,
wherein all Ty Ty news might be
deposited.
So here we are, and here we hope
to stay till Ty Ty can have a paper
all its own.

THOSE “GOOD OLD TIMES.”
A greatly enjoyed affair by the
little folks of Omega was the birth
day party given by Mis* Ruby Ro
zar last Saturday in honor of her
eighth birthday and about fifty of
her little friends were delightfully
en'ertained at the home of her pa
rents on Main street.
The most interesting game was a
hunt for boiled peanuts in the grass,
George Howell Roberts was the boy
to get the lucky rumhe r of peanuts
and was awarded a china pig by tho
little hostess.
At 4 o’clock a dainty tabic was
spread and in the middle a beautiful
white birthday cake was placed with
eight candles, and as the little guests
Progressives, prohibitionists, old-timers, and
others, might draw 3ome lessons from the elec
tion day of last week.
Do you remember what election day was
like in the first years of Ty Ty’s existence,
wheh whiskey flowed freely? Even in the
days of local option, when it was easily pro
curable in any quantity from Albany, things
were not much better. It was not safe in those
days for women and children to be on tho
streets for there was always shooting, not to
mention cursing, obscene lnnguage and quar
reling, and there were nearly always casualties
—sometimes very serious ones—in ubundance.
This stato of afTairs was not, by any means,
confined to Ty Ty: it was the same in any town
not sufficiently large to have ample police pro
tection, nor was it confined to election day—it
wns like this on any public occasion.
Whiskey was largely responsible for it, but
not altogether so. The lawless element was
in majority then—so much so that even men
among the law-abiding sometimes hesitated
about going on the street at such times.
This part of the country was no worse than
any other newly settled place on the outskirts
of civilization.
Going still further back to a different class
of people in a different section of the country,
we find another kind of lawlessness. There
close the stores, and so women and children
had come in from the country with their “men
folks,” and merchants were doing a good busi
ness. It was really one of those enjoyable oc
casions of which we sometimes hear.

Yes; "awfully” good times they were, but
let us return thanks—morning, noon and night
—that we have nothing like that now.
The utmost good humor prevailed in Ty Ty
on the last election day, though the election
was municipal as well as national. The town
The newspapers are advising people of the
toll weevil infested districts to “go slow” about
puttfhg up penqut mills, waiting until more is
known of the profits of this industry.
On the other hand, those who have had con
siderahic experience in the matter (as in Ain
bama) declare that there is nothing else so cal
eulated to take the place of cotton as peanuts
planted on a large scale. The machinery need'
cd for extracting the oil is not expensive, it
seems, and no doubt there will be plently of
idle gins and compresses next year to supply
buildings and power. Many small towns in
Alabama have found it profitable, and why
should not those in Georgia?
Many farmers have declured their intention
of planting peanuts for a money crop next year,
and we can tell more about it then. At any
rate, the crop will not be lost, for nearly every
body is going to raise hogs.
But why “peanuts?” The word was never
neard in South Georgia until recent years,
Groundpea, goober, pindar, but never peanut—
the last-mentioned being a name imported from
the North where people know the product by
no other name. When the Department of Ag
riculture first issued a bulletin on the subject,
it was about “Groundpease,” and the bulletin
stated distinctly that groundpea was its proper
name, and that it had none of the character
istics of a nut but was just what its name in*
plies—a kind of pea (a legume) that grows in
the ground.
Since then, things seem to have changed
and the latest bulletin issued not only calls It
peanut,” but says it bears that name because
of its rich, nutty flavor.
So it looks as if we shall have to yield to cir-

cumstances and join the majority in calling it-
“peanut”—which is much against our .will.
The bulletin quoted says the proundpea, or
“peanut,” is a native of South America, but an
older authority said long ago that it was a na
live of Africa and was not brought , to this
continent till early in the nineteenth Century,
However, the bulletin is probably right, though
goober sounds as if it ought to be African
(Webster says it is Southern U. S, ), and pindar
is what they call it in the West Indies. Its bo
tanical name is araChis hypogaea.
There are many varieties of groundpea*
(“mostly natives of Brazil,” we are told), but
we have found two kinds quite enough for our
purposes.
