GOOD ROADS SCHOOL BY STATE COLLEGE CAMPAIGN TO BE LAUNCHED LOOKING TO PRACTICAL MEANS TO HELP FARMERS. ATHENS. Qg.. Oct. 11—The State College of Agriculture will lead the way In Gcoraia for better roads. This Is to bo drine through a good roads' school that Is to bo held as .a part of the state college In this city next January. The whole elate !• aware of the good work done by the college last January In the inauguration of the cotton school which wa* attended by ono hundred nnd four representatives farmers from Dfty-three counties in this state. This school will be held again next January for ten days. Following the cotton school will be a great conference of farmers, during the session of which the new hundred thousand dollar agricultural hall will be formally dedicated. This will be made a great event in the history of agricultural development In Georgia. Following that will be a live days’ session of the good roads' school. The state college sees the necessity for scientific and thoroughly effective road work In Georgia, especially as the con victs are for the most part to be used on road work by the several counties of the state after next April. There Is no other way l n which the etete col lege can confer a more direct or more lasting benottt on the farmers of the state than to heln bring about a road Improvement that will last. In view of this, the authorities of the college hare planned for a great school for road Improvement and Invites to this school all thoso Georgians who are Interested vitally In read Improvement County Officers Invited. While all will be wclcomo. It Is es pecially desired that tne county com missioners of all tho counties of tho stato be present as well as the road engineers of those counties that are to do permanent road Improvement work. It Is quite certain that Ideas will bo gained that will be worth thousands of dollars to tho different counties and In one year the state will get bark from this Instruction In Improved road ways more than the value of the hand- same building recently given to the state college. It la the intention of the state col lege to have here at thet time a num ber of road building experts who will deliver lectures on roed building dur ing each mowing. The isfternoons will be tsken up In visiting different reeds In the county and noticing the way in which they have been Im proved.- . During the session of this school a United States government expert will be In this county building one mile } of Improved roed according to the lat est methods. Those attending the school will have the benellt of this ex perience. The roads of Clarke county, j Irrespective of this work, will be mod CAP!, ED.

He never S lvtfs any trouble. He knows what ** has got to do and he goes and does It. He has grown to be a husky lad, and Is now In good’ health. If all tho prisoners wgro like him there wouldn’t be much'use for the number of guards we have. “Speaking of guards, there hav<- been some thirty guards killed since the leases, to only twelve convicts. "But going back to convicts. There aro some white men who are awful tough. Tuko those pickpockets down hers from Valdosta. One of them os- llberately put hts hand up against a saw and whacks k off. Another cute his foot off. and another throws him self In the river so he can drown him self. Such men are desperate, and you have to watch them to keep them from taking advantage of you. "But a mean negro convict Is the worst to deal with. Ho will fight'to the flnlab. and there Is no giving up until he lg beaten Into Insensibility. A guard’s life fn worth nothing to them. .1 "( wouldn’t bs surprised If there wasn't trouble when aH the white convicts are tsken to tho stato farm.
