OUR ATLANTA LETTER.
Atlantu, Ga., March 2.— As the ro-
Bult of many inquiries which have
reached tho State Department of Agri
culture relative to the use of limestone
for the purpose of correcting acidity of
the soil, Commissioner J. I). I’rico hHn
asked tho Stale Chemist for a Lriof
statement on this subject, which ft I
lows: “Experiments conducted In th-
chemical division of the department
have shown conclusively that limestone
should not be used as a liller in fertil
izer, because it changes the water solu
ble phosphoric acid into a form that is
insoluble in water. This latter form is
not valueless, hut it is not us good us
that which is soluble in water. The
farmer buying fertilizer containing
lime as a filler is likely to for in the
opinion that he is getting enough lime
for his soil, whereas he is really getting
very little. Most Georgia soils need
lime, but this material should be added
by itself where needed, in quantities
varying f-om one ton to four tons per
acre, depending on the degree of acidity
of the soil. The limestone should lirst
be applied and thoroughly mixed with
the soil, and the fertilizer should be
applied afterwards.”
“The thing I missed most in my trav
els—more than good food, more than
tho comforts of civilization—was the
weekly paper from my home town,”
said Charles W. Blount to-day. Mr.
Blount was just home from a tour
through Asia und a part of Africa, hav
ing spent three years in travel. “I got
American papers every now and then,
big city papers,” he said, “and 1 kept
up with the ifews pretty well. But 1
wanted to know what was happening
to the folks I knew at home —who was
getting married, who was dead, and
who was sick or well, and who was
building a new house. When 1 got to a
port where my mail was wailing for
me I'd find a package of papers from
home, und everything else hud to wait
while 1 read through them. I never
knew how good they were until then.
You folks at homo don’t half appreci
ate your home-town paper.”
That splendid results have been ob-
t lined in many sections of the State
through inoculation of the soil with
nitrogen-forming bacteria supplied by
the Slate Department of Agriculture is
indicated in several hundred letters
which the department bus received in
response to inquiries. In the vast ma
jority of cases this toil inoculation for
leguinihous plants has proven quite
successful, and the plants, where not
killed by cold weather, are flourishing.
The department still has on hand a sup
ply of the nitrogen bacteria inoculant,
which it is furnishing to Georgia far
mers at actual cost, or 25 cents per
aero. It is recommended that lime or
limestone be used on the land before
sowing leguminous crops, as nitrogen
bacteria thrive belter in a soil that is
well limed.
Quarterly bullentin No. 64 of the
State Department of Agriculture, deal
ing with commercial feeding stutTs, is
just from the press und ready for dis
tribution. Commissioner I’rice has had
this bulletin carefully prepared, and it

Buldwin, Ga., claims the champion
chicken thief of Georgia in the person
of Uncle Billy Armstrong, who says he
is 103 years old, and lookH it. The old
negro loves to sit in the sunshine and
boast of his ability to lift chickens—an
accomplishment in which he yields to
no man, white or black. “I uster to
pick a stormy night and git close to de
chicken coop,” he says. “Den, when
it thundered, I’d yank off a plank while
de noise hid de sound. I’d reach in,
grab a chicken by de neck and pop him
in my sack. I kin git every chicken a
sack will hold and dey’ll never make
one holler, because I’m so quick wid
’em. I ain’t never been kotched wid a
chicken in my sack yit.”
Georgia and the South will soon linve
in or near Atlantu a home where crip
pled children whose parents are poor
can find a bed and surgical attention
without cost. It will he called the Scot
tish Kite Home for Crippled Children,
and will be supported mainly by the
Scottish Kite body of f reemasonry, of
which Forrest Adair, of Atlanta, is
chiirman. Tho need of such a home,
whore crippled children may he made
straight and well before it is too late,
has long been felt in Georgia, and the
movement is being given support out
side the order which established the
home.

A movement to substitute the elec
tric chair for the gallows in Georgia is
scheduled for the next session of the
Legislature, according to membera-elect
in Atlanta this week, and it is probable
that the hill will pass if brought to a
vote. It would provide that all execu
tions take pluce at the State I’rison
Farm, thus removing from the county-
seats the objectionable features of ex
ecutions, und making only one electri
cal apparatus necessary.
“A farmer lives longer than a city
man because he has to listen to less
talk," said u scientitic lecturer here,
“it is a strain on ear and brain to lis
ten to perpetual conversation, and it is
just as hard to listen to foolish jabbe r
as a wise man’s wisdom.” The lecturer
showed thut at no time except when he
is asleep does the city man liuve relief
from conversation, while the farmer, in
his field, has time to think in silence.
The country fellow who comes to
town and gets stung on a sin ddy suit
may soon have the laugh on the all-
wool boys, for next fall’s suit is likely
to be made of wood pulp, tin shavings,
spun gluss, or anything besides wool.
That’s what the Tailors’ National Asso
ciation says goes to make up the aver
age bargain suit, and this condition
will keep on unless the pure wool bill is
passed by Congress.
“Do you know his wife well?”

Buying at Home.
Columbua L*k1rpt\
A recent news dispatch from Chicago
says in part:
“Directors of Sears, Roebuck & Co.
recommended the payment of a twenty-
million dollar Rtock dividend to holde-s
of forty million dollars common stock of
the mailorder corporation at a meeting
here to-day.
“The new shares of the 50 per cent,
dividend will be issued against an ac
cumulated surplus of approximately
twenty-three and one-half million dol
lars, a large part of which has been re
invested in the business.
"The resolution adopted by the direc
tors recommending the dividend provid
ed that the distribution should be made
April 1 to stockholders of record March
15. A special meeting of stockholders
wur called for February 23 to approve
the board’s recommendation and to vote
on a plan to increase the authorized
amount of the corporation’s common
stock from forty million to fifty million
dollars."
And where are Sears, Roebuck & Co.
getting these millions of dollars? The
answer is simple. They are getting a
vast majority of the big dividends out
of the people of the South, while our
Southern cities are suffering for lack of
local patronage, and their progress is
being retarded because of a lack of loy
alty on the part of our people.
The above is only one of many strik
ing illustrations of the importance of
trading at home and enriching the com
munity in which you reside, rather than
of a Western or Eastern section, which
will do you no good.
Columbus people are sending entirely
too much local money to the East and
West.
Andalusia (Ala.) Standard.
The merchants of Andalusia and Cov
ington county should get together and
inaugurate a "buy at home” campaign.
Every year enormous sums of money
flow into the coffers of Northern mail
order houses for merchandise that
could he purchased here at home at a
much greater saving. The people should
be educated against this practice.
The home merchant may charge you
a trifle more for his wares, but you know
what you are getting when you buy
from him. When you order goods from
Chicago or New York y_>u must pay for
them before you are allowed to inspect
them. And in almost every instance
when you take your purchase home
from the express office—after having
paid the charges—you find that you
have something altogether different
from and inferior to what you ordered.
The South will never truly "come into
its own” until we begin buying at home.
The mail order houses pay their taxes
with Southern money. When the local
merchant pays taxes you derive the ben
efit, because the money is kept at home
to support our institutions.
The local merchant should purchase
home products when possible, and should
in turn be patronized. Let us begin
the "buy at home” movement now.
'the Standard pledges itself to assist in
every way possible.
Let’s begin a united movement against
the mail order evil. "Buy at home.” „

Foolish People.
Portland Journal.
There are some who actually believe
good roads are a benefit to the coun
try. How foolish! They have notions
that are sure to lead them into danger
some day.
How car, a good road be good for a
a country?
Give a country good roads and it will
be depopulated in no time. Happy is
that land where roads are practically
non existent, narrow and crooked, a
labyrinth of ruts and bumps. Its peo
ple remain because they cannot get out.
Give a country good roads and cost
of hauling produce is reduced from 21
cents per ton mile to 8 cents. This re
duces the cost of living too much.
Give a country good roads and virgin
land will be broken up and pul into
cultivation. This means too many
neighbors.
Give a country good roads and rural
schools will be consolidated. This
means too much education.
Give a country good roads and there
will be community social gatherings.
This will make tho boys and girls want
to stay on the farm and thrive in
stead of being compelled to go to the
city and starve.
I Give a country good roads and the
farmer can go to market any day in the
year. This means that he will spend
too much money in town.
No, the best wav to keep the people
already in the country at home, and to
keep outsiders from coming in, is to ab
stain from improving the roads.

A Good Wife.
“She was a good wife to me. A
good wife, God bless her."
These words were spoken in tremb
ling accents over a coffin lid. The wo
man asleep there had borne the heat
and burden of life's long day, and no
one had ever heard her murmur; her
hand was quick to reach out in a help
ing grasp to those who fell by the way-
side; her feet were swift on errands of
mercy; the heart of the husband had
trusted her; he had left her to
long hours of solitude, while he amused
himself in scenes in which she had
no pleasure nor part. Children had
been born to them. She had reared
them almost alone—they were gone!
Her hand had ministered to their
wants. Then she had comforted him,
and sent him out strong and heartful,
while site stayed at home and—cried.
What can a woman do but cry—an d
trust?
Well, she is at rest now. But she
could not die until she had promised to
“bear up” and not to fret, but to re
member how happy they had been.
They? Yes, it is even so. For she was
blest in giving, and he in receiving. It
was an equal partnership after all. «
“She was a good wife to me.” Oh,
man! man!—why not have told her so,
when her eurs were not dulled by death?
