If public schools would teach
young Americans the proper use

Library Notice
- The special attention of the
teachers and children is called to
the book of knowledge which
“has ''just been placed in the
Library shelves. This Book of
Knowledge is a childs encyclo
pedia‘in 20 volumes.
It is a wonderful work and
well'named for it contains know
ledge of every kind. This know
ledge is not given in the usual
Encyclopedia style as plain cold
facts but is presented in such an
attractive way as to stimulate
the childs interest at once and
arouses a desire for further
study and investigation. :
Aside from the splendid
literary way in which every sub
jeet: is treated, the beautiful
illustration shown on nearly
every page, add greatly to the
edueational value of the book.
I know of no work that will be
of more value to the children in
thei* school work and even to
the teachers themselves.
Come and see it, and it will
natirally follow that you will
use it, i$

W. B.M. U. At Savannah
The Convention of the Georgia
W. B. M. U. at Savanonah, last
week was a most satisfactory one
to the delegates in attecdance. The
reports from the officers of the
various departments of the work
and from the delegates lepresent
ing the various, btganizations
showed that the sentiment, faith
ful cfforts of the women ure being
rewarded by the accomplishment
of the things they have set out to
to do. The Convention met in the
F'rst Bapuist church and was call
ed to order Tuesday morning at’
10:30 o’clock vy the President,
Mrs, W.J. Nel The program
was arranged by Mres, 3. P
Nichols, of Griffin. Mrs. J. C.
Lanier, of West Poiut and Mrs,
Samuel Lampkins of Atlanta and
in almost every detail was carried
out as these women had plaoned
Fitzgerald’s scciety was honored
by having her president Mrs. E.
J. Dorminey on the program, Mrs,
Dorminey discussed the Sunbeam
Work. Mrs. A. B. Conyers who
sang during a revival here a few
years ago was soloist at the con
vention and as at two previous
conventions, she again sang her
self into the hearts of the women.
The Constitution was revised as
devised by last year’s convention.
A new division wae formed, a
‘special leader of Young People’s
organizations was chosen, a change
in basis of representation was
made, many other things were
discussed, planned and done. jThe
Savannah women left nothing un
done in their arringe.nents for the
Convention. The comfort at the
church, the hospitality in the
homes, the cordiality of the peo
ple on the street all testifies to the
fact that the old time southern
hospitality is still :n the land.
Mrs. K. J. Dorminey, Mrs. L.
Kennedy, Mrs A, H. Thurmond
and Mrs J. B. Wall represented
the W. M. S. of the Baptist church.

THE LEADER-ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, NOV. 19, 1915
The 4-H Brand of Boys and Girls
Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of
Agriculture.
Fifteen thousand boys and girls of
Georgia belong to clubs whose motto
is represented by four H’s. They are
the 4-H brand of boys and girls. These
four H’s stand for the development of
the Head, the Hand, the Heart and
the Health. The brand is stamped on
all the products offered for sale by
these club members. They wear the
letters on their breasts emblazoned on
buttons. They display it at the ex
hibits of the school, the county, the
district and the state fairs.
The first “H” represents the traip
ing of the head. Very little progress
can be made without intellectual de
velopment, so an effort must be made
to train our girls and boys to think
to reflect, to look into their problems
and reach definite conclusions. The
more highly trained they are the more
successfully they will meet difficulties
and the faster they will progress.
The second “H” means to train the
hand. The hands, of course, are very
important to the individual, but they
are of little service without training.
One may be able to use the hands for
certain things with advantage, but he
may not be skillful in the use of his
hands. ' Therefore, the acquirement of
skill and deftness become matters of
TO KEEP HOG CHOLERA
FROM REACHING YOUR
HERD |
Dr. A’ L. Hirleman, U. S. Vet. Field
Agt., Ga. College Of Agriculture
Locate your hog lots and pastures
away from streams and public high
ways, and do not allow your hogs to
run free range.
Do not visit your neighbor or alle
him to visit you, if either of you have
hog cholera on your premises.
Do not drive into hog lots when re
turning from market or after driving
on public highways.
Do not use hog lots for yarding
wagons and farm implements.
Do not place newly purchased stock,
stock secured or loaned for breeding
purposes, or stock exhibited at county
fairs, with your herd. Keep such stock
quarantined at least two weeks, and
use care to prevent carrying infection
from' these to other pens in feeding
and attending stock.
Burn to ashes or cover with quick
lime and bury under four feet of
earth all dead animals and the vis
cera removed from animals at butch
ering time because they attract the at
tention of buzzards, dogs, etc., which
are liable to carry hog cholera infec
tion.
Confine your dogs and do not keep
pigeons unless you confine them.

great importance. One girl is able to
can tomatoes and a boy to pollinate
corn tc advantage. But such things
follow the training of the hands to be
useful, and most “important of all, to
be skillful. ~
The third “H” stands for training
the heart. Education is of little value
and skillful hands not worth while un
legs the heart is trained to be king,
true and sympathetic. Life is only
valuable as we are able to serve oth
ers, and as we,are served by others.
Kindness is a trait qf patriotism
which we should strive to develop,
for it means that we are to lend our
sympathy and support to those less
fortunate than ourselves, and that we
all work and co-operate together for
the greatest good to the greatest num
ber.
The fourth “H” represents health.
What advantage to be clear-minded,
skillful-handed and sympathetic-heart
ed if one has not the power through
vigorous health to serve others? Dis
ease lurks everywhere about us. We
do not appreciate as we should the
forms in which disease may, appear,
and the relative ease with which we
may evade it, if our bodies are in a
thoroughly vigorous condition.
WINTER LAYERS
D. J. Taylor, Field Agent Poultry, Ga.
State College Of Agriculture
g
If you expect your pullets to lay
this winter you should begin early
to put them in condition to lay. The
farmers’ wives who make a success
of poultry keeping have this idea of
winter eggs in mind all summer and
select for 'this purpose.
Those pullets that were late hatched
or were slow in maturing, should be
fed liberally to put on as much growth
and fat as possible to mature them;
but it is the early hatched, well ma
tured pullet that can be most relied
upon to lay during the winter. Feed
the late hatched pullets liberally on
corn, wheat and oats, with a mash
made of wheat seconds or of bran and
shorts, and corn meal with 15 per cent
of commercial meat scraps or cotton
seed meal. v
Do not neglect any of the things
that will keep the chickens strong
and healthy. Supply theé chickens with
plenty of grit, oyster shell, charcoal
and green feed, and give them the run
of the farm or of a grassy plot. A
weak chicken will lay few eggs any
time of the year, and especially few
during the winter.
Prepare a house*for your pullets this
fall so that they will be protected
from severe weather and the rains.
They need this protection to lay large
numbers of eggs.
