ABOUT JUDGE PARKER.
The Brooklyn Eigle, in comment
ing on the possible Denvcratic nom
ini e for president, has this to say of
Judge Parker f
“Ho is in the prime of lif *, being
but fifty-one years old. He carried
the State of New York in 1897 by
60,000 majority for chief justice ot
■ the court of appeals, Mr. McKinley
t having carried the State Lhe year
1 before by 250 000 majority. His
| election in 1897 is known in this
' 8 ate to have been due io conditions
which lost to the Republican party
in Greater New York 95,000 votes,
which were cast for no State ticket
at all.
“But that detail is itself lost, on
the iuisginntion of the country. He
has nihe years in front of him in
his pr intent exalted oflice, which he
has filled with acceptability and
dignity.
“As a judge of the supreme court
till 189C/and of the highest court of
the Btyte since 1897, he has taken
nopsrt in politics whatever, though
bis vote for the candidates of his
party cannot be doubted. Hi bus
been made immune by place from
contentions. He is unidentified
with caucuses of divisions or of de
feat.
“He h <8 long been occupied with
the administration of justice and
the exposition of the law. He is
resident in a State which his party
must carry to win the presidency.
He is a man of scholarship, fellow
ship, fidelity, modesty, judgment
and charm.
“He is thus signally favored by
career, by character, by conditions
and by circumstances effectively to
appeal to the Democratic hope and
to the Democ’-fttio thought.”
Atlanta wants to secure the next
meeting of the Georgia Bar Associ

Faithful Datl-
Stevens County Reveille.
We happened <n a home the other
night and over the piylor door saw
the legend worked in red letters :
“What is home without a mother?”
Across the room was another brief :
“G id bless our home.” g
Now, what’s the matter with'
“God bless our dad?” He gets up*
early, lights the fire, boils an egg,l
grabs his dinner-pail and wipes off!
me dew of the dawn with his boots!
while many a mother is sleeping.
He makes the weekly hand-out for
the butcher, the grocer, the milk
man and baker, and his little pile is
badly worn before he has been home
an hour. He stands eff the bailiff
and keeps the rent paid up.
There is a noise during the night
dad is kicked in the back and made
to go downstairs to find the burglar
and kill him. Mother darns the
socks, but dad bought the socks in
the first place, and the needles and
yarn afterwards. Mother does up
the fruit; well, dad bought it all,
and jars and sugar coats like the
mischief.
Dad buys chickens for the Sunday
dinner, carves them himseli, and
draws the neck from the ruins after
every one else is served. “What is
home without a mother?” Yes,
that is all right; but what is borne
without a father? Ten chances to
one it is a boarding-house, father is
under a slab and the landlady is the
widow. Dad, here's to you; you
have got your faults—you may have
lots of 'em—but you’re all right,
and we will miss you when you’re
gone.

FARMERS’ INSTITUrt SHOULD
BE HELD AT GRIFFIN.
Let Active Steps be Taken for This Senatorial Dis
trict at Once.
A farmers institute is to be help
I n this senatorial district this year,
i and the Spalding C rnnty Agrical
tural Society should at once fake
steps to see that it is bold in Griffin
as the only central and available
meeting point for the farmers <f
the three counties of Soildir g,
Butts and Fayette.
Creation of Institute Work.
At a meet! gos the B ard of
Trustees of the University < f G or
gia, at Athens on January 16th,
1903, the position of “State Director
of Farmers Institutes” was estab
lished for the purpose of inaugurat
ing a system ot Farmers Institutes
throughout the State this year.
This new feature of tho University
will be operated as an adjunct of
the College of agriculture tu d
funds were appropriated for carry
ing on tho work. In the present,
unorganized condition of the F . rm
er’s institute work in Georgia it is
not deemed advisable at present to
undertake the heavy expense
necessary to hold' an institute in
each county There will, however,
be one institute held io e»ch sena
torial district, making a total of 44
institutes at the most central aid
accessible point to the farmers who
reside in ti e counties comprising
the various districts. This new
department of the State University
will be permanent in the future,
and as a Stite institution it should
receive at once the cordial endorse
ment and prompt co operation of
ill the people of the S'ate.
Object ol Farmers’ Institutes.
The prime purp >se of farmers'
institutes is to improve agriculture
and those engaged in thht highly
ennobling pursuit, by disseminar
ing information in regard to thai
branch of industries, and by Croat
ing individual s-lf-reliunce, intelli
genci andflprosperity among the
people of tbe rural districts. The
farmers’ institute will earnes ly
strive to educate the farifter in the
production of all crops and animals
in the most profitable and economi
cal manner. It will endeavor to de
velop home talent and crystaliz*
thought into available, practiceable
and useful forms It is the medium
through which the adult farmer
may quickly find the weapons with
which to solve the many difficult
problems of his lifework.
Getting Ready for Institu'e.
Active work and agitation of the
meeting should be started at least a
month before the institute is to oe
held. A proper locality should be
selected, having in view ease of ac
cessibility from all points of the
territory to be covered. When the
locati in of the institute htft been
definitely agreed upon, and so an
nounced by the Director of Farm
ers’ Institutes, a good committee
of men and women to take charge
of all local arrangements, such as
securing the hall, advertising this
institute in the country press, send
ingout invitations to editors, school
teachers, fanners and others,
should be promptly attended to
This committee can also prepare
questions for discussion and notify
the director at least two weeks in
ad vince of the subjects desiring dis
cussion and most applicable to the
development of agricultural con
ditions in each locality. Invite all
the farmer’ clubs or organizations
in the different counties to attend
the institute and strive in an
earnest, effective manner to aid the
director in every possible way to

While tbe funds appropriated
this year are not sufficient to em- I
ploy a regular corps of lecturers for
each institute, every eff :rt will be
mudo t > secure assistance to the
director, si that each meeting,;
will prove as entertaining and as
instructive as possible. If the ■
farmers take sufficient interest in
the inauguration of the movement 1
this year sufficient funds will be an
nually appropriated to make the
institute work < f this State as iffl
cient and < ffe;; iveas it is now being
carried < n tn the other States of the ;
Union. Whi e the expenses of send
ing out literature, correspondence,
expenses < f lecturers and all the
general expenses of the institute
will be borne by the State Director
yet the local committee in the ■
various senatorial du-tnots where
tbe meetings are to be held can bo
of great aid m many ways, and
their active co-operation is earnest
ly requested.
Two Sessions
Except in such districts where a
longer time is especially desired,
only two sessions will be ha!d,
morning and afternoon, consuming
but <-ne day. The morning session
should begin promptly at 10
o’clock, closing at no m. The
afternoon session should last from
2 o’clock until 4 p. m.
The director especially urges tjiat
at least- one hour, en her during the
morning or afternoon session, be
devoted to a ladies’ session, dis
cussingquestions of interest to the
country home. Ladies’ clubs are
cordially invited to a'tend this -ses
sion, and a displ&v of home talent ik
ns much desired in that department
of our institute work as it is in nil
others. The wives and daughters
of our farmers efiould have a con
spicuous place h our institute work.
