It seems to me that the great
truth that we should impress upon
the awakened mind of the indi
vidual is that he, as an individual,
has a particular work to do, and
that he will contribute his re
spective share to' the sum total of
human wealth and happiness only
when he does that work for which
nature intended him. “The most
characteristic mark of a great
mind is to choose some one im
portant object, and pursue it
through life.” It has been earn
estly said that “To know one’s
self, to accept one’s limitation’s,
to cultivate one’s talent, is to live
a life ‘of peace, of growth toward
the divine.” Why so much misery
in life ? Why so much dissatis
faction ? Why poverty’s woes
here and wealth's merry laughter
there ? In short, why so much
inequality in society? Simply
because too many people are in
the wrong place in life. They are
doing work for which they have
no love, inferior abilities, and but
little ambition. Those who are
consumers ought perhaps to be
produces, and vice versa. Mrs.
Humphrey Ward has well said:
“It is the vain endeavor to make
ourselves what we are not that
has strewn history with so many
broken purposes and lives left in
the rut.” Alas! Mrs, Ward’s an
alysis is altogether too true. We
cannot afford to misdirect human
energies aud to allow men and
women to grow up dissatisfied
with themselves and with their
environments. As teachers and
educators, we owe a sacred duty
to the rising generation along this
particular line. The important
problem confronting us today is.
not simply to give met) employ
ment, but so to train mind and
character that "Very man win.
wants to work will be in a posi
tion to do that work which he can
do best. This is the great prob
lem of education and social re
form.
“The successful man is the man
whose opportunities are those
which permit the natural develop
ment of the talents given him.”
But what are the conditions that
confront us in actual life ? It is
a sad and pathetic fact that manv
young people start out in life
without giving the question of
self-preparation adequate atten
tion. Many of them fail to do
the work for which they were by
nature intended. What follows ?
They do not, they cannot, under
such conditions, use to the best
advantage the abilities with which
they have deen endowed, and con
sequently it becomes impossible

for them to measure tip to their
highest possibilities. Now, when,
a great number of people labor 5
under such adverse conditions,
ignorant of their real worth and
of their opportunities, many of
the advantages in life which were
intended for them will be grasped
and utilized by others. It is at
this 9tage that social inequalities
appear. The opportunities lost
by one individual will be utilized
by another You say this is not
right ? It is right. It is but the
logical expression of an unwritten
law of nature and society. The
opportunities lost, is, as it were,
the punishment which society in
flicts upoD the careless individual
—the individual who fails to find
his proper place in life.
Some one has truly said that
“Life gives to the individual pre
cisely what he gives to life.” This
is true. The great philosophy of
social evolution is found in giving
and receiving. It is apparent that
the individual who is in the wrong
place in life is also out of harmo
ny with the controlling thoughts
aud ideas of his day, and conse
quently is not in a position to give
much to society, and, as a result,
he does not receive much in re
turn.
I believe that I am safe in say-
mg that modern social ills are
due, not only to unjust laws, bat
also to unwise education. Laws
cannot make men but education
can. If we hope to reform socie
ty, it cannot be done simply by
drafting resolutions in party con
ventions. It cannot bn done simp
ly by urging party organizations
to fulfill oertaiu prescribed condi
tions. These things are necessary
but they are not enough. We
must go down deeper; we must
come closer to the disease; we
must not only tickle the popular
ear, we must educate it to listen
to the crying needs of humanity.
We must teach tie young in on
and women that above everything
else society expects them, religion
expects, and God expects them to
find their proper places in life in
order that they become instru- .

THE PEACH LEAF-CURL
IT IS PARTICULARLY BAD IN THE
NORTH GEORGIA OIICII
ARDS THIS SEASON.
PRESENT CROP THREATENED
In Somo Localities It May Bo Par
tially Destroyod—Experiments
Show It Can Bo Controlled.
[BY W. M. SCOTT, STATE ENTOMOLOGIST-!
For the past several years this disease,
popularly known as "leaf curl,” and
technically known as exoascus deform
ans, has been quite prevalent iu the
peach orchards of uorth Georgia. It is
particularly bad this season, andiu some
localities threaten the partial destruction
of the present fruit crop.
The symptoms of the disease are very
characteristic and any ordinary observer
can readily detect it. The disease most
commonly develops in the leaves, but it
also attacks the tissues of the twigs. The
mycelial growth of the fungus in the
leaf increases the size and number of
the cells, causing the formation of a se
ries of irregular transverse folds. The
leaf is also greatly enlarged, both trans
versely and longitudinally; and one side
is usually strongly convexed, so much
so that frequently the bulging along the
midrib pushes the margins of the leaf
toward each other on the other side, giv
ing it an inflated appearance. The tis
sues of the distorted parts thicken and
the leaf looses its green color, changing
to pale, with yellowish tints.
The disease appears in early spring as j
soon as the leaves are out and develops
very rapidly. The function of the leaves
(the breathing apparatus of the tree) is
entirely destroyed by this fungus, hence
the vigor of the tree and the develop
ment of the fruit are materially im
paired, frequently causing the fruit to
shed and decreasing the longevity of the
t reo.
All affected haw s arc shed in the
early }>art of the summer, anil if the
tree- ;iro well cultivated and fertilized a
new set of healthy leave.- will come out,
and nothing inm-e "'ill be seen of the
disease until the fallowing s’.-ring.
The myc.eli-.eo or ve,weave part of
this fungus is oerynui-.l ml s the
lr.ic summer, a Mtmn an i winter in the
tissues of the. leaf and a Is, growing

been obtained to show that the disease

con iition, except that the trees had been
b elly affected with leaf curl for the past
two years.
PLAN OF EXPERIMENT.
Row I —Ou Jan. 16 sprayed with blue
stone at the rate of 2 pounds dissolved
in 50 gallons of water. Nothing more
was done to this row.
Result—Examined on April 10 —trees
in fruit, and nearly full leaf; 40 per cent
of the leaves affected with leaf curl. Re
sult unsatisfactory.
Row 2 —On Jan. 16 sprayed with blue
stone as in row 1, aud a second applica
tion of the same substance was made on
March 12, that is, just before the tree
came into blossom.
Result—Examined April 19—in frnit
and nearly full leaf; 12)^ per cent of the
leaves affected with leaf curl. Better
than No. 1, but still unsatisfactory.
Row 3—The same as No. 2 and the
same result up to April 19. The experi
ment is continued by the application of
weak Bordeaux (3 pounds blnestone, 6
pounds fresh lime aud 50 gallons water)
on April 24, when the trees were in
frnit and nearly full leaf. Final result*
cannot be determined yet.
R. w 4 —The same as No. 3. with ail ad
diti. n.il application of weak Bordeaux to
be made later.
Row s—Cheek. This row was left un
treated, with which t« compare results of
treated trie s.
Result—Examined on April 19, in fruit
aud nearly full leaf. Eighty per cent of
the leav-. s are affected with leaf-curl.
The trees look sickly and the leaves have
a pale, yellowish appearance.
Row 6 —On Jan. 16 sprayed with
strong Bordeaux (6 pounds blnestone, 6
pounds lime to 50 gallons of water.)
Nothing more was done to this row.
Result—Examined April 19, trees in
frnit and nearly full leaf. Seventeen
per cent of leaves affected. Result not
satisfactory, but the disease was checked
considerably.
Row 7—On Jan. 16 sprayed with
strong Bordeaux (6 —6—50) aud rejieated
j the application of the same mixture on
1 March 12, just before the trees came into
bloom.
Result, examined April 19, trees In
frnit and nearly full leaf. Almost per
fect, less than 1 per cent of leaves af
fected with leaf-curl.
Row B —Same as No. 7 and result the
same up to April 19; with a third appli
cation of weak Bordeaux, (3 —6—60) on
April 21.
Row 9—Same as No. 8, with a fourth
application to be made later.
Row 10—On Jauuary 16 sprayed with
caustic potash— B pounds to 40 gallons
of water.
Result—April 19, 50 per cent of the
leaves affected with leaf-curl. Unsatis
factory results, but no damage to the
trees.
Row 11—On January 16 painted with
crude petroleum.
Result —Unsatisfactory, 50 per oent of
leaves affected with leaf-curl.
Row 12—On March 12, just before
trees came into bloom sprayed with
strong Bordeaux (6 pounds blnestone,
6 periods lime to 50 gallons water.) only
one application was made.
Result—Examined on April 19, when
leaves were nearly out in full and a good
crop of fruit ou the trees. The result is
almost perfect prevention of leaf-curl.
Only an occasional leaf oan be found
diseased.
Other experiments were made but it
is not necessary for the object of this
paper to give them here.
CONCLUSION.
The result of experiments Nos. 7, 8,
9 and 12 arc practically the same, but it
is noted that in case of No. 12 only one
application is made and that this applica
tion is sufficient to prevent the leaf-curl.
Two points are determined; 1. That Bor
deaux made by the formula of 6 pounds
of bluestone and 6 pounds of fresh lime
to 50 gallons water is the substance to
use. 2. That in the spring of the year,
just before the buds burst into bloom, is
the time to make the application. In
the face of these results there is no ex
cuse for a peach grower to allow his
trees to become seriously infected with
leaf-curl.
Other experiments al-e being conduct
ed to determine whether the leaf-curl
can be checked after the leaves come out
and the disease sets in. It is probable
that weak Bordeaux (38 —50) will
ebook it to some extent, oven after it
appears.
In case the trees are badly affected
and no treatment has been applied, I
would recommend that, whon the dis
eased leaves begin to drop, the orchard
should be highly fertilized with nitrogen
ous manures (which should not be ex
tensively used on bearing trees under
ordinary conditions), and thoroughly
cultivated, in order to push out a new
set of leaves to take the place of the dis
eased ones and mature the crop of fruit.
For this purpose nitrate of soda is the
best fertilizer to use. It acts very quickly
and will soon produce a new crop of
leaves, which will lie sufficient to mature
the crop of fruit. It should be scattered
around the tree from the trunk out as far
as the branches reach. It should then
he cultivated in. The orchard should be
cultivated every week or ten days until
the crop is matured. In this manner
the entire fruit crop oan be saved and
the trees will not suffer material injury
from the effects of the disease.— State

NEWSPAPER LAWS.
Once in a while it is well to remind
the public of Newspaper Laws, for
their own protection. For instance,
many people think that if a paper
comes to them without their subscrib
ing it is a free thing. Not so. If a
paper gets your name, sends you its
regular copies, and you take them from
the office, you are bound by a stringent
law to pay for it. Should any person
receive a paper for which he has not
subsoibed, unless that paper is distinct
ly marked “sample copy” he is respon
sible for the payment of the same if
taken from the office. In addition, if
the first, copy is taken from the office,
he is bound to pay for all the papers
the publisher may choose to send until
arrears are paid.
Following are the laws:
1. Subscribers who do not give
positive orders tothe contrary are con
sidered as wishing to renew their sub
scription.
2. If subscribersjorder the discon
tinuance of their periodical, the pub
lisher may continue to send them until
all arrears are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse
to take their periodicals from the post
office to which they are directed they
are responsible until they have settled
their bill and ordered them discontin
ued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish
ers and the papers are sent to the for
mer address, ttiey are responsible.
5. The courts have decided that re
fusing to take periodicals frpm the of-
fice or removing and leaving them un
called for, is prima facie evidence of
fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wisli to
continue taking it, otherwise the pub
lisher is authorized to send it and the
subscriber will be responsible until
specific notice with payment of all ar
rears is sent to the publisher.—Ex
