IS YOUR LAND “POSTED"?
Now that the hunting season is
here, let’s give serious consideration
to two facts. First, o long as land
is not posted, the game belongs to
anyone who will come and get it
Second, game birds and animals are
rapidly disappearing and many of
them will become extinct if farm
owners do not take more interest in
their protection and preservation.
The game on privately owned land
is the property of the landowner and
protected by State and Federal law
provided he simply asserts his owner
ship. To post our farms all we have
to do is to place in conspicuous
places signs that hunting is not al
lowed. This applies to fishing, also,
Especially large, big type signs may
be had of your local printing shop at
slight cost. ‘
There are other redsons for hav
ing land posted besides the protec-
Jon of game. Many so-called hunt
ers are not only careless of the rights
of others, but are awkward in the
use of fire-arms and liable to injure
stock or even persons,
When protected, game may be
come a profitable crop for home use,
and often is when protection has
lasted several years. Some farmers
sell hunting privileges by the day,
by the season, or for a term of years.
Certainly we should not let our game
be killed and our fields trodden down
by strangers without some sort of
reward.—The Progressive Farmer.
THE TREATMENT
OF TUBERCULOSIS
What is the best treatment for
tuberculosis? Can you send me the
name of a dealer from whom such
treatment can be bought by mail?”
is. another inquiry.
Getting well of tuberculosis de
pends almost entirely upon the pati
ent. There is no drug or remedy
that has a specific effect on the di
sease—a treatment certainly cannot
be ordered by mail. In fact, it may
be stated that money spent for mail
order adVertised treatments for tu
berculosis or any other disease is
money sent to quacks and money
wasted. In tuberculosis, a patient’s
hope of cure lies mainly in his abili
ty to live in such a way as to build
up his bodily resistance and thus
overcome the disease.
The essentials of curing tubercu
losis whether in the early stages o 1
otherwise, may be enumerated as fol
lows:
1. A competent physician who
will see and examine the patient oft
en enough to direct thg case in an
intelligent manner.
2, Open air life, day and night,
the year round.
3. Rlenty of fresh, nutritious
food, especially milk, eggs, butter,
and fruits and vegetables.
4. Rest. The doctor must detor
mine when and for how loue the
patient should stay in bed.
5. Using only such drugs as the
doctor may prescribe to meet tem
porary symptoms. Cough mixtures
and tonies, aleohol and cod liver cil,
are to be avoided.—Dr. B. E. Wash
burn, in the Progressive Fargor,

200,000 Competed In A Year
For Thousands of Jobs
Despite the fact that the number
of federal employes has been re
duced by nearly 400,000 since the
close of the war the ecivil servece
commission sees no prospect of a
considerable decrease in the num
ber of opportunities for government
employment, says the ,'Washington
Post.
To meet the normal turnove:
which is large, the commission held
examinations in the year ended June
30, 1923 for more than 600 dif
ferent kinds of positions, in which
more than 200,000 persons compet
ed. Indications are that the num
ber for this year will be as great.
A study of the examinations held
in the last two years reveals an in
teresting range of positions all the
way from charwoman and laborer,
for which the primary requirement
is good physical condition, to those
which demand qualifications of a
very high order, such as agricultural
transportation economist at a salary
of $4,000 to $5,000 and mechanical
and electrical engineer at a salary
of $5,000.

WILL SLATON RE-ENTER
GEORGIA POLITICS?
ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 14.—Will
former Governor John M. Slaton re
enter Georgia politics as a candidate
for Governor? .
Georgia editors in a numher of
instances, are urging Governor 3Sla
ton to ‘come back’—not to fight eny
present office holder or anytl.ing like
that—but, at the proper time, so
to speak, when the political field is
open for good men, ‘tried and true,’
The former governor says friends
close to him; has no desire whatever
to run for office. He has had about
all the honors that state can give
him, he is now cnjoying a lucrative
law practice, hence if he did accede
to the wishes of many of his friends
and get back in the political arena
he would do so with considerable in
convenience and financial loss to
himself, |
Theres’ one thing the former gov
ernor does enjoy and that is discus
ging state questions and trying to
field a solution for them whenever
state leaders ask his advice. Few
men are better informed on the tax
question than Governor Slaton and
students of this complicated prob
lem well know it and run to him
quite often.
That Georgia needs public men of
the Slaton type is the opinion ex
pressed by a number of leading state
editors. They insist that the de
mand for the services of the former
governor in state affairs is rapidly
increasing and that he will be forced
to declare himself one way or the
other at no distant day.

“Pseudo.”
The prefixes of “pseud” and “pseus
do” are derived from the Creek
pseudes, false, and pseudos, falsehood.
Combined with other words—or forms
of words—they have the {following
meaning: 1. A false, spurious or
counterfeit condition, 2. An abnormal
form of or a close resemblance to
(something). 3. A resemblance In
many symptoms, but a lack of the spe
cific characters that mark the true
form; said of diseases. 4. Non-Euclid

There is only one way to estimate

the actual service it gives, Service
can only be estimated by the amoun!
of good it does to thé largest number
of people and its effect on the popula

the service rendered. It cannot be
told in cold cash, because ofter the
gervice rendered is so important, fai

SWIMMING HOLE l
With the coming of hot weather,
comes the opening of the swimming
pools of the towns and cities, and the
wash hole of the country boy. The
water of the creeks is often polluted;
the water is often taken in the mouth
by accident or purposely, and unlesy
properly taken care of and safeguard
ed there is more danger in the public
gwimming pools and rented bathing
suits. Pools and public bath houses
should be supervised ®y the Health
Officer. The State Board of Health
in its Department of Sanitary Engi
neering will be glad to, advise with
towns and cities about the proper care
of swimming pools.
In arranging and thinking of new
legislation for 1923, we hope that our
Jegislature will give to our State Board
3¢ Health most liberally.
Uncommon
Sense. jom sians
; WOLF AT THE DOOR
.f FTHIS lsu't a fable. The wolt that
’ figures in it is a wolf you've often
| heard of. He's the widely celebrated
~ wolf-at-the-door.
i Most men work all their lives to be
| rid of him, When he is gone they stop
- working—and, too often, back he
i comes. Only a few get rid of him for
| ever, And the sense of security that
| tnkes his place is considerably more
dangerous than the wolf could possibly
be.
Most of us need the wolf in our
business. When, of a morning, we
glance out of the window and see him
sitting hungrily on the doorstep we
take more interest in our day's work,
When we are on the job the thought of
him keeps us hustling. And by keep
“ing hustling we put our brain in con
dition, which helps a lot with the
next day’s work.
The wolfless man is a worryless
man, and a worryless man isn’t much
use in the world. ¥
The man who knows he can't be
fired helps very little around an office
or shop. Necessity did not limit her
family to the one child—invention.
She is the mother of effort, of achieve
ment, of energy, of industry—a very
goodly brood of children. '
If Thomas A. Edison had made a
competence before he was thirty It is
possible that he would have kept on
working, but we doubt it.
It is true that men long past all fear
of the wolf are still doing important
work, but they got the habit of work
when the wolf was leering at them as
they left the house for the job. The
habit persisted.
Poverty is an ugly thing which we
all should aveid. But the very avoid
ing of it stimulates ambition, brings
out such talents as we may have and
opens our eyes to our own possibili
ties.
' In the South Sea Islands the matives
don't have toe work. The breadfruit
supplies their food and kills their am
bition, -
Winter, which we associate with our
frlend the welf, forces men to step
lively on the read te competence, Ard
the highest achievement is to be found
in the temperate zones, where there
is winter enough to keep men thinking
about the coal supply and not enough,
as in the Arctic regions, to keep them
in the house all the time.
Don't be afraid of the wolf. He is
evil to losk upon, with his red eyes,
and his lolling tongue, but he is eme
of the best frieads you have get,
(€ by John Blake.) .
