The car of live stock is very attractive, some splendid specimens of horses, cat tle, sheep, swine and poultry are being corried cn this car. They will be exhibited on a flat car and this will enable'all to see them to advantage. The car of farm machinery will prove interesting to many. There is a gas engine, which drives a motor, showing how light for the farm home may be generated ; var ious grinding mills, and a gin such aB farmers might use to delint their choice, selected seed and prevent its being contaminated by pressing through a public gin; a manure spreader, deep tilling plow and various*other impliments, the use of which means better proparation of the land and larger and more profitable crops. In the baggage cars many of the exhibits shown are behind glass and present aver f attractive sight. Everything has been labeled with care and one taking enough time to pass through the car can gather much vauable information with out the aid of a guide, though eomo fourteen experts accompany the train for the sole purpose of giving information to visitors. The boys’ corn club exhibits, showing methods of germinating and testing seed, will interest many. The 6oil analyses shown are certautly as important us any thing could be to the farmers of the state . The exhibit of cotton grades will prove instructive to all who study them for a few min utes. Tho model farm showing how the land should be divided to enable the practice of an economic rotation is one of the most instructive features of the J train, and every one can afford to spend some time studying this unique exhibit. The working dairy will furnish many valuable lessons. See it by all means. Artificial cotton plants and charts have been prepared to illus trate the effect of a deficiency in certain elements, such as potash, on plant growth. A section of plants just as they grow in the field forms a feature of the cotton exhibit, and illustrates a yield of about two and a half bales per acre. This is one of the selected, strains of cotton produced on the farm which is resistant to Anth racnose, a disease which causes millions of dollars loss in Georgia | every year. In addition there are exhibits of spray machinery and spray material for controlling in jurious insects and plant diseases. The State Department of Ento mology has a very attractive dis play. Valuable data is presented relative to fertilizers and fertiliz ing material, and problems in soil fertility and farm management. Some twelve bullet ins are carried on this train and will be distribut ed to those asking for them free of cost. They will give information concerning a great variety of top ics and aggregate in all more than 2,000,000 of printed matter. It would take pages to describe the exhibits carried with any degree of detail or accuracy, but this 1 summary will give the public some : idea concerning them. Come and see for yourself. You will be bene fited, and those accompanying the train will extend every courtesy and consideration within their power to visitors. 1 ‘ “ Influence. Reader, you are exerting an in fluence, did you ever think of that? Your conversation and actions are being closely watched by some one. Therefore, ybu should be careful. Guard your tongue, A word once spoken cannot be un said. A gesture once made can not be unmade. A step taken can not be retaken. We are not care ful as we should lie about how we \ live. We gossip indiscreetly, we act wholly unbecoming to the man or woman whom God has created in the image of himself. We have written on Influence before, and we will probably write on the subject again and again. You may say, “Oh! listen to his moraliz ing. I am tired, sick and disgust ed with so much stuff telling the renders what they ought and ought not to do. Why don’t he walk the chalk line himself?” Well, it’s a fact, the Editor confesses he has inunv -hortcomings : v at the same time lih edits a paper that is week !v ex"innß an influence. lie ob serves. he sees the tendency of the times, and is not forgetful that there is a great deul*of good in the world He tukes notice too, that tnere is an immense lot of wicked ness. We are not mud-raking or | endeavoring to turn things topsy turvy, but we do wish to ask our readers to ba careful about the kind of influence they exert. Dont loaf. Don’t use slang. Don’t throw away your money on useless things and don’t keep bad company. Don’t deal in games of chance. Don’t drink alcholic beveruges. Don’t smoke cigarettes. Refrain from dissipation in any way, nor read trashy novels, or any kind of cheap, poisonous literature. On the ot her hand, try to exert a good influence Keep busy. Sp3uk a word of encouragement to your fellow men. Read good books, standard magazines and clean papers. Study the Bible. Help the siok. Sympathize with the sorrowing. In all matters do your j duty thoroughly. Make the best of every opportunity. Attend Sun day school and church o:i Sunday and carry a friend with you. By all means exert a correct influence on those with whom you come in contuct and live sincere lives.
