SELF SUSTAINING BASIS.
Referring to agricultural condi
tions in Georgia; .the time from be
ginning and conclusion of the next
crop season, ip the state' lias been
aptly written of as the readjust
ment period. ' ) .
Under the direction of Dr. An
drew M. Soule, president ' of the
Georgia College of, Agriculture,has
been prepared a new farming pro
gram for the Piedmont,,Region. V
The keynote of the program is
to recognize cotton ’ as, the qhief
“money crop”, it is proposed ; to
make each farm as near self-sus
taining as possible.. t „ ,. ; . 1
In giving a “write-up” of this
program the Atlanta Constitution
said last Sunday a whole lot,*, i*u p
few words in the following para
graph: ;
“Through purchases made out
side, the state each year for food
dud feedstuffs approximately $150-
000,000 are expended, "in order
that Georgia may retrieve its loss
es caused by ravages of the boll
weevil, Dr. Soule stated that -the
new system will enable farihc
rai s e all the necessary products
within its boundery.”
The farm program outlinod by
Dr. Soule for one section of the
state, is practically the same
Law is as old as the creation of
main, enforcement of law is as old
as the first violation of law.
Law is because it was needed for
the benefit of the world and man
kind.
It being declared that man was
incompetent to be a law unto him
self, law enforcement became nec-
cessary.
-As law could not enforce itself,
enforcement Of law became neces
sary.
And conditions changed and ad
ditions to the law multiplied.
As time passed “The Law” be-
> came laws, and the states grew
froth many, and divisions of states
from very many.
, The necessity for law was mag
nified as'the'number of people to
be governed by law increased in
number.
Law signifies authority, and as
the need grew the method of desig
nating the authority became estab
lished in accord with the need.
Without law there'uonld be no
civilization pr betterment of man
kind and the co-operation <x£ peo
ple in society and business.
The best and most .concrete ag
gregation law ever givep to the
world was and is the “Ten Com
mandments^ of Mosiac time. Now
ftllithe nations of the world have
used these commandments as the
-base of all law, each of these being
incorporated in national and state
law.
Now the observance of, law has
become the proof of good citizen
ship ahd the eviddnoe bf trustful
ness. .. x
Modern times have not changed
the true answer to “Why is Law?”
Though the-number pf laws have
been many tithes magnified.
To law there has become added
many variations, but the great pur
pose of layv remainsthe'' .same, to
prdmote the good and decrease the
bad among ail people..
All people do not hold the same
opinion of law, but the law-break
er is never held in high respect by
people who wish to do right and
condemn wrong.' ' ’'
Law is of Alptig^ty prigin, and
without it the* world,, could not

WOMAN TELLS
EXPERIENCE
“I suffered for ten years from
nervous indigestion. 1 bad no
appetite afud always felt miserable.
I was in such a serious condition
I thought my time had come for
this world was getting short. My
food diden’t seem to noursh me at
all and I only weighed 85 pounds.
“After tufting Tanlac, 1 now
weigh 108 and am gaining every
day. Ohl there is sqch a wonderful
change now. Tanlac relieved' my
troubles SO quickly it surprised, 1
me. My‘ appetite is splendid. I
have plenty of strength and feel
better than I have in years. I
wouldn't ’.lake one thousand
dollars for iyhat Tanlac did for
me.” ■
The above statement was made
by Mrs,- Glara Lehaui, Bristol
