Voujt Men and Tomorrow.
M t men of all ages are much
dispose'! to live in tomorrow. There
great deeds and best living will 'come
forth, but they will come tomorrow.
A little thought in this direction might
bring a good lesson lo many. But it
is to the young that the lesson would
be of greatest profit. Many of them
have high aspirations, and, in the best
course, they a?] ought to have. Some
of their aspirations, however, are but
dreams of future greatness; dreams of
a day whes the world will hang on
ths words of their lips, when nlj
wrengs will bs righted, and the powt r
of their l:w>s will be felt before. The
currents of ambition leap and surge
in their young blood and nerves and
they live a great life is an imaginary
world.
Much of this is possile t® many
young asDirants. It has come to scm
in ths past, and would Lavs cotne to
many more .bad they pursued the
right jroad- The man who reaches
greatness in this sense, or any true
sense, must do so by being great in
ths use of toilav. He cannot fly to the
hilltops ot'Ji me on the wings of mere
youthful aspiration, lie must go by
glow and toilsome steps, steps taken
today and in all days as they coe.
Because we see men 'on ths hilltops
teday, whom wo have never, known
before, is so evidence tlm they have
gone through with a leap. They have
only emerged from the obscurity of
losg toil through daily duties and
have only now come to the point
Where men feel their worth and ac.
knowledge their power.
Our young men should aspire to
great things, hut we want to help
them by reminding them that the coin
mon idea of greatness, is not the
only index'of greatness and that the
only rsad to any greatness is in the
right and faithful use of the opportu
nities and duties. The disposition to
ignore the commonplace things of to
day, which seem to us to have no re
lation whatever with the higher life, is
fr too general. The little things of
life and the right use of them aro the
real insignia of the great. The sou
that is destined to be great will show
its native greatness in the discharge
of the small duties as they come This
will both exercise and develop the
native greatness, and bring to hand
the means for other greatness. We get
the constitutional law in the words of
*he Master, “Becaase ilieu hast been
faithful in a very little, have thou
authority over ten cities.” 'Phis is not
merely a just reward for worthy set
vice,-but also a recognition of inher
ent merit attained by conforming to
a law of nature. Hence, today is the
time to be great if you would be great
tomorrow.—Advocate-
When a man hangs a sign out iu
front of his door ho admits that ad
vertising ig valuable to his business'
The man should admit that a sign
hung in the columns of a newspaper
where it will be seen by thousands of
people is ten timos more beneficial to
his business. —Valdosta Timos.

v^okstion. —I want to plant a large
oat crop; would jou advise me to plant
it all now, and what kind of seed oats
would yon j-eoommeud?
Answer -O.u account of the frequent
winter-killing of oats, I would advise
planting half your land now, and the
rest of your crop iu the spring. In this
way you do not take the risk of having
all your crops killed, and are moderately
sure of at least a partial orop. If your
land is rich, or if you propose to fertil
ize, I would recommend the winter
grazing oat. They stand the cold bet
ter than any other variety, and on good
land will tnako you a fine crop, sow
from a bushol and a half to two bushels
per acre. Should yon not bo able to get
these, or if your land Is only fairly good,
sow the Texas rust-proof oats, and for
fall sowing, always use seod from fall
sown oats, as they are without doubt
more hardy than seed from those sowed
in the spring. Foryour spring planting
pso the Burt oat, sowing at least a
bushol and a half to the acre. The Burt
oat is very light, and therefore uot as
valuablo for feeding as other varieties,
but It grows off rupidly and matures
early, and thore is more certainty of a
crop from them than from any other
variety, when sowed in the spriug
Don’t bo afraid to fertilize your land foi
tsho oat crop, for none responds more
readily to thorough preparation than
this, the cheapest and best food crops
for our horses and mules. Af-tor taking
off the oats next summer, don’t fail to
plant the land in peas, and thus keep up
the fertility of your fields.—Stato Agri
