LAST MESSAGE OF
GOV. JOS. M. BROWN
Words of a Statesman and
Not of a Politician
Afraid to Speak.
Governor Joseph M. Brown's
retiring message to the General
Assembly is a remarkably clear
statement of the views of a re
markably clear-thinking execu
tive.
It should be read carefully and
analytically by every Georgian,
for it considers exhaustively
many questions of grave import
and far-reaching consequence.
Governor Brown, not unlike
other men of real force and worth
in the world, will find, many peo
ple who agree with what lie says,
and many others who dissent.
In discussing some questions,
the Governor goes much further
than some in his place would care
to go—even dare to go.
It is distinctly to his credit,
however, that he falters not in
setting down the things he be
lieves. He is a statesman, not a
politician. He is fully entitled to
have that much said of him, on
'the eve of his vacating the gov
ernorship.
Governor Brown will be* heard
from again in Georgia politics.
His friends are too loyal to give
him up, too appreciative of his
services to see him retire.
The impression is that he still
is very much alive, and that la
will continue very much alive for
many days to come.
This is as it should be. Men of
his type and character are need
ed in Georgia- men who respect
the law, and insist that within
it dwells the greatest and surest
protection to society and the
State, and who have tin- courage
of their convictions and the man
hood to speak them frankly and
freely, as may seem necessary
now and then.
In bidding him good-bye a:
Ghief Magistrate of Georgia, the
Georgian extends to Governor
Brown its good wishes and the
assurance of its high regard.—
Atlanta Georgian.
He System of Accounts.
A young Philadelphian who had
decided that his somewhat ex
travagant spouse ought to keep
an account of her expenditures
came to her one day with a neat
account-book, prettily bound,
relates the Public 1 .edgvr.
"Now, Suzanne," said he, "I
want you to put down on this
side of the book the money 1 give
you for the* houst told expenses,
and on the other a statement ol
how it goes. In a couple ot
weeks I’ll give you another sup
ply of money.”
Suzanne took the book and
promised to follow instructions.
Two weeks later Hubby called
for the book.
"Oh, I’ve kept it all right,”
said Suzanne. "Here it is."
On one page was written:
"Received from Hick one hun
dred dollars." and on the oppo
site was this comprehensive state
ment: "Spent it all. ”

j Ship Sweet Potato
Plants Northward.
Tifton, Ga., June 30. The ex
tent of the live plant industry at
Tifton can be estimated from the
fact that nearly four million of
s\\ -et potato plants have been
shipped from this point this seas
on. Quite a number of other
plants are shipped, cabbage, to
, mato, strawberries and the like,
but the sweet potato plant indus
try, although of recent date and
having its origin in an accidental
discovery, has grown until it
eclipses all others.
One firm alone has shipped ov
er two and a half million sweet
potato plants this season, the
largest shipment on record, de
spite a rather unfavorable season
and the depression in the live!
plant trade as in all other branch
es of industry. Last year the
shipment of a total of two million
plants passed all previous rec
ords, but this year goes the rec
ord half a million plants better.
’I he firm shipping the two and
a half million plants is putting
out fifty acres in sweet potatoes
this season, having nearly forty
acres already out. This firm put
iri artificial irrigation a few years
ago and is fairly independent of
dry weather.
Besides the large shippers there
are a number of smaller firms do
ing a profitable business in potato
plants. The total of their ship
merits will probably run over a
million plants for the season. As
the plants sell from $1.50 t 052.50
per thousand some idea of the
extent, of the business can be
gained.
She Had Competition.
They were talking about the
conversational power of the fair
sex at a reception in Washington I
a few weeks ago, when Augustus j
Stanley, of Kentucky, cited a
case that left no doubt as to her
ability to win the first prize, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph.
Some time back, according to
the congressman, a friend of his
visited Niagara Falls, taking
with him his wife and his wife’s
sister. Immediately on arriving
and securing hotel quarters, the
party set out to see the wonder
ful sight, wifey and wifey’s sis
ter talking as they walked along
on a million interesting subjects.
"Say John,” said wifey, turn
ing to the old man after they had ;
gone quite a distance, "aren’t we I
getting near the falls?”
"Yes,” was the prompt reply
of John. "If you will stop talk
ing a minute you will hear the
thunder of the water quite plain
ly.”

Sooner the Better.
The minute a tooth begins to
decay it is the beginning of later
inconvenience and expense. The
time to treat a tooth is the min
ute the decay begins. The way
to keep posted on the condition
of your teeth is to see a dentist
at least twice a year.
