THE EXPERIMENT FARM
With the Georgian’s Sagacity, It Will
I>o a Great Work.
Savannah Times
The experimental farm, established
at Griffin, will, we believe do a great
work. The Georgian in native saga¬
city is no slack wad. In ingenuity
and inborn intelligence he ranks high.
With his attention buckled down to
agricultural problems he will work
out. good results.
Regarding the conclusion reported
from Washington that the agricul¬
tural colleges of the country are not
accomplishing the work expected of
them, the facts concerning the Michi¬
gan College will be of interest. This
is the pioneer institution of the
country, having been established in
1857.
Up to 1887 the college had turned
out 410 graduate, of which 154
were following farming, horticulture
and agriculture, and 6 were profes¬
sors in agricultural colleges. The
number of graduates since 1875 has
so increased as to make the average
time out from school oiallthegradu-
ates only eight years. This explains
why a larger percentage were hot
farming, as it is alleged that a large
number are teaching or engaged in
various business pursuits accumula¬
ting the necessary means with which
to purchase farms and settle down
for life.
The Michigan College was long
looked upon, even by farmers, as very
much of a humbug, but of late years
it has been steadily winning its way
into public confidence by its extern
sive system of experiments in stock
raising and fattening, fruit 'and
grain production, and the use ot
fertilisers.
Yields Graceftally to the Wisdom ot
the Commissioners.
Monroe Advertiser.
On Tuesday last the commissions
ers met in Atlanta and decided to lo¬
cate the Experiment Station at Grif¬
fin. While we would ha ve been glad
for Forsyth to have won this valul
able prize, yet we meekly yield to the
wisdom of the commissioners, and
content oux-selves with the belief that,
as servants of the state, they did
what they believed to be to the best
interests of Georgians and Georgia.
Nor do we entertain the sentiment
of the fabled fox because we did not
grasp the tempting fruit.
Now that the experiment farm for
Georgia has been located and is soon
to become a living reality, we hope
every Georgian will put his shoulder
to the enterprise and push ft to a
grand and final success. Especially
should every farmer throw to it what
aid he can command, for it is strict¬
ly the farmer’s institution, conceived
and planned with a view to promote
the fanner’s interest. Let it be made
the never failing fountain whenco
shall go out practical and valuable
lessons to the farmers of Georgia.
Pike County Is triad.
Pike Co. Journal.
We are glad to state that the ex-
perimentabetation and farm is to be
located at Griffin. The site selected
is the M. L. Bates place, one mile
from Griffin, consisting of 124 acres
of highly improved land. To secure
this enterprise Griffin donated the
farm at a cost of $15,000 and then
put $4,000 on top of that. The farm
is so near us that the people of Pike
can watch its operations almost as
closely as if it were located in our
own county.
Three Cheers for spaldtng County.
Jackson Argus.
The Experimental station goes to
Griffin. It will be located on the
Bates farm which the state receives,
together with $4,000 in cash, free of
charge. We send up three cheers for
Spalding county in her good luck.

Chwrcty?
1. It helps ourselves. The services
give vigor to the best thoughts
and purposes, strengthen onr integri¬
ty, develope and solidify right charac¬
ter <and feed the moral and religions
part of our nature. We cannot af¬
ford to lose those sweetening and
those strengthening influences for a
single week.
2. It helps the- minister. Nothing
is more disheartening to a minister
than simple neglect. What sense is
therein preparing a message for:
those who do not come to hear it?
How can he preach with vigor to
empty pews? The dullness of any
service is often to be laid to the ac¬
count of absent ones.
8. A church lives on the de votion
of its friends. Nowhere is this devo¬
tion so fully shown, so quickly felt,
or so plainly seen as in the attend¬
ance on the Lord’s day. Every one
in his place, and the church rejoices
in a consciousness of strength and
vitality, and goes forth with zeal
and power to its appointed work.
With half the seats vacant, there
comes depression and the church
sinks into inaction. A live church
will help the community. The moral
tone of any community depends up¬
on its churches. The example of
every neglector of the Lord’s day
worship is so far an obstruction
placed before the door of -the church
to keep others away- If the, fronds of
the church attend, strangers wili be
sure to do so.—[Church Union,
