The State Department of Agriculture w«rna far mers of Georgia against, the danger of overlooking the important opportuni ties now before them on account of the good price which cotton is bringing and the fine fall prospects. It is true things are looking good, hut the important thing is not only to keep them looking good, hut to make them look even bet ter. "The time i9 close at hand for plant ing leguminous anil top crops, as well a- sitiuII grain," said Commissioner .1. I). Price, "and I want to call attention again to the fact that this department is prepared, the same as last year, to supply the farmers of Georgia with bacteria inoculent for their leguminous crops at 25 cents an acre, or practically cost. The splendid results attained last year through the use of inoeulents makes it really imperative that no far mer overlook this opportunity to in crease his yield. "While we made a fair wheat crop this year, it was not as good ns we would like to have had, owing to the drouth which hit it at the wrong time. Nevertheless, many good farmers now have wheat on hnnd who did not have any last year. It is a good thing to have wheat of your own. whether you have money nr not. Next year is not going to be bh easy as some people seem to think. While I am optimistic over prospects and feel confident that times will he much better than for the last 12 or Is months, I cannot refrain from cautioning Georgia farmers against taking long chances. Besides, it doesn’t matter bow much money we have, home-raised Hour tastes good to the farmer on his own table. It is worth while, even for feeding to the chickens and pigs. "It is your job, Mr. Farmer, to take care of your farm and family, and you should get ready for it by sowing grain crops of all sorts, ns well as raising all the cuttle and hogs you can. I know that this sort of talk has been pumped at you for years and years, but I have never seen the time when it was more important than now that you should take heed and get ready tu protect yourselves. "The Georgia Board of Entomology with the assistance of the Georgia He pnrtment of Agriculture, the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, and business men generally, will begin in a few days Hn educational campaign relative to meeting agricultural conditions brought shout by the appearance of the boll weevil in many counties of Georgia. Scientific men who have had wide ex perience with the weevil say there is no question but that it will be all over Georgia within two years. It is up to you to ‘prepare for war in time of pence. ’ Do not understand me to say that the boll weevil will reach your farm at any particular time, for l do not know this. But I do know, from having seen the destruction and huvoc wrought in other States, that it ,s best for you to get ready for it. A word to the wise should be sufficient."

At a place 1 visited not long ago I was told that the best managed and most suc cessful dairy in the community was run by a woman I met there, and my friends told me of another woman near by whose husband had stayed in debt all the time, only to find when he got sick two or three years ago, that his wife took hold and pulled the farm out of debt for the first time in years and years! All this, let me hasten to say. is not written to encourage our men-folk to practice the doctrine, any more than they are already doing, of "l.et the women do the work." I shall be glad, however, if these suggestions do lead our farmer men to think a little more atiout making the farm a genuine co partnership, getting in every case the benefit of his wife's judgment, interest and enthusiasm and then not dis solving the copartnership the minute the crops are sold and the money comes in.

When the final figures are in it will be 9hown that Georgia has more nearly lived at home than in any year in the past fifty. Preliminary estimates of the Federal Department of Agriculture show that the State has produced 64,- 900,000 bushels of corn as against 56,- 000,000 in 1914; wheat, ;1.129,000 bushels as compared with a crop of 1,694,000 last year, and 16,100,000 bushels of oats as against 9,000,000 for 1914. Sweet and Irish potatoes show a cor responding increase. In hogs, 1915 shows a ten per cent, increase over 1614. These are highly pleasing figures and deliver a body blow at Old Man Hardtimes. Collier'll Weekly. In this freer world that is now begin ning people must like what they have to do. In this country, for instance, we must not only get the betterments of science actively in use on the farm, but we must educate the children so that they will become pleasantly aware of the interest, realities and satisfac tion of farm life. Herbert Quick has made this point everlastingly clear in his new book, “The Brown Mouse." It ought to be read and pondered over by most of those who have anything to do with rurn! education. It is useless to cry "back to the soil" to those who have been steadily trained away from it during eight or ten years of school ing. Note, too, that the farmer can ruin himself by doing a good :ob. If the wheat-growers all took this sage advice about getting a European yield from each American acre, the price would probably go to 60 cents a bushel. The world-old war between the city dweller’s cheap food and the farmer's profitable crops must be brought to some sort of a fair settlement. This problem has been wrangled over from either end, but it has not been clearly stated for solution. If will be necessary not only to have the farmeis doing their most effective work for the rest of us, but also to make sure that in do ing it they are not in danger of getting less reward than like service would The ruling recently issued by the State Department of Agriculture unde the Pure Food and Drug Act relative to bleach'd Hour will go into effect Fri day, Oct. 1. and. according to the an nouncement of the department, will be rigidly enforced. Commissioner Price calls attention to the fact that while the department is persistently urging farmers all over Georgia to raise their own wheat and eat home-made tlour, it is at the same time seeking to protect all the people of Georgia against bleached tlour—at least to the extent of letting them know just what they are eating. t'nder this ruling every barrel, sack or package of tlour offered for snie in Georgia which is bleached by any pro cess. or artificially matured, must have stamped upon the package in capital letters of solid type not less than one inch in height the word “bi.kached." Following this word in smaller type, if desired, must be given the process, so that the statement on the package must read either "bleached electrically," or "bleached by chlorine.” Manufacturers and dealers in tlour were given by the department a liberal extension of time for conforming to this law. That time expires Oct. 1. The department can grant no further extension, and will use every effort to see that the law is obeyed to the letter. gain in other industries. The present market-controlled prices do not insure this result. Whatever is necessary in the way of joint action, Government regulation, etc., will some day have to be undertaken, and the generation which combines this statesmanship with proper rural education will very nearly settle the farming question. “Good-bye, Old Summer-time.” .Sara Hcaumont Kennedy. Yesterday, over the western hills, the summer sun went down. The sea son which three months ago we hailed as the "good old summer-time” has crystallized into a memory, a memory that glorifies with the compelling touch of ends attained and hopes achieved, or shrivels and blisters under the scourge of failure. It came out of the eastern dawn— this dead-and-gone summer—with roses and bird-song, laughter and love, and it slipped over the western horizon empty-handed, for, one by one, it had dropped its treasures as it journeyed. And some of us caught the roses, and some the thorns, and some learned the bird-song and some held the empty nest Some of us saw it go without regret- nay, even with relief; and some of us held yearningly and tenaciously to its last golden hours; some of us will cov er its exit with the lilies of gladness, and some will hide its footprints under I the rue of broken hearts. All that is left of it now is the paling | glow of the aftermath, the reflected radiance of what was so recently a splendor of sunshine and rainbow tinted blossoms. Impartially it gave of its warmth, its color, its perfume its purple vintage: but with all too un even balance did it weigh its favors of joy and hope and happiness. But ! what is done, is done; and whether we j have bound up full sheaves of its gol den grain or been only gleaners in the rilled fields, we look back to-day and say, with that touch of sadness that always comes with finality: "Good bye, old summer-time, good-bye.” Dyspepsia Tablets Will Relieve Your Indigestion John R.
