RARELY ON THE JOB, BUT THEY
DRAW LARGE SALARIES
FROM THE STATE.
From The West Point News.
“It is with regret that we hear of
the division and strife within the
membership of the public service
conmission of Georgia. We have
been observing this case with care,
ami it appears to us from rather per
sonal visits to the offices of the com
mission that the business which is
due to be transacted by that body is
teceiving very little attention. The
law prescribes constant —daily—at-
tendance upon duty by the members
of the body, but we rarely find more
than one or two of them about their
oflices and the court-room set aside
for the use of the commission in the
capitol.
“James A. Perry is almost always
on the job, and John T. Boifeuillst
can usually be found at his desk.
Other members are very rarely to be
seen or heard of about the plaac.
“This may be perfectly correct and
exactly what the people of the state
expected of these men when they
were elected to the offices which
they aTe presumed to fill. That is
for the people to consider. But we
confess that we would prefer to see
officials show some interest in the
performance of the duties of their
offices. The public service commis
sion of Alabama, and of most other
states, Is in session every day, ex
cef»t when absent from the capitol on
business of the commission fclse-
where.
"Hoke Smith, while governor of
Georgia, fired Joe Brown from the
railroad commission for—what did
he fire him for? Anyway, Joe was
fired instantly. The present gover
nor has the same power, and when a
publ c service commissioner or any
other official who fails to comply
with' the law or Ao discharge the
duties of his office according to lasr,
has forfeited his position, and forth
with his connection with the payroll
should be severed.”
WINTER RYE CAN BE GROWN
IN AU, PARTS OF COUNTRY
Winter rye is the hardiest of all
cereals. It can be grown in all parts
of the country, but is most profitable
in the northern and eastern states.
Its production in the United States
has increased rapidly duning the
past few years, due chiefly to a
heavy foreign demand, high-priced
ltihor, low yields of wheat, and the
development of improved varieties of
rye. It is grown largely as a cash
grain crop in the western half of
the country, but is used also for pas
ture, as a green-manure or nurse
crop and to smother weeds.
The ordinary time for sowing win
ter rye in the northern part of

Convenience and correct dress
demand two watches
In the office and on the road, and when a man
pursues his outdoor hobbies, a strap watch proves
an invaluable possession.
So too should a woman wear a strap watch for sport.
The intricate mechanism of l\cr dress wristlet should not
be put to the continued stress of such rigorous activity.
Yet with evening dress a man’s strap watch becomes
incongruous and a woman’s sport model an ornament of
doubtful taste. They who hold convenience and correct
dress as things of consequence, possess two watches—
a strap watch for business and the sports, and a dress
watch for social wear.
Our extensive showing c f watches dressed in the
popular Wadsworth White Gold Cases is especially
interesting.

there is economy in a few steps around the corner
\
North Dakota and Minnesota is about
September 1, with later dates in sec
tion? south of this. Many farmers
will find it profitable to sow winter
rye yet this fall, using grain stubble,
corn ground, fall-plowed liand, or
summer fallow, if climatic conditions
pei mi t, the department believes.
Sowing on grain stubble ie often the
most profitable because of the cheap
er cost of production. The grain
should be sown with a drill at the
rate of four to six pecks per acre.
In the important rye-producing
western states the average acre value
of the rye crop is somewhat less than
that of wheat. While the yields of
rye usually are higher than those of
wheat, the price is much less, being
laigely determined by the foreiegn
markets which use most of our crop.
At low prices rye can not be grown
for grain at a profit except under
good management and in favored lo
calities, the department of agricul
ture says. While rye makes good
hay, green manure, pasture, or a
nurse crop for legumes, it is not a
suitable concentrated feed for live
stock unless mixed with other grains.
It is too heavy and sticky and is not
verv palatable feeding tests show.
When fed in mixtures rye has a feed
ing value lotfer than corn, but near
ly eoual! to that of barley.
MULE’S POPULARITY ON FARM
INCREASING, DEPT. SAYS
The ability of the ;nule to endure
hardship and perform stalling ser
vice under adverse conditions has
established him as a real asse,. m
American agriculture, ?ays the Unit
ed States department *f agrieu.ir.re,
ill his importance and popa arity as
i work animal is attested ny -is
rrpidly increasing use. In 1910, the
number of mules on farms and
ranches was 4,209,709. The number
on January 1, 1920, was 5,432, ,OJ. an
increase during the decade o, near
ly 30 per cent. Nearly three-fifths
o e all the mules in use in the United
Sutes are found in the nine cotter,
belt states. These states, Texas,
Georgia, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mis
sis!-ippi, Alabama, North Carolina,
South Carolina, and Louisiana, hid a
total of 3,172,797 mules in 1920 as
compared with 2,855,257 horses.
Texas and Oklahoma were the only
cotton belt states having more
horses than mules.
While the mule is essentially a
draft animal, it is used widely for
utility purposes, especially in the
south. Mules vary in height from
twelye hands to seventeen and a haif
hands, and in weight from 600
pounds to 1,600 pounds. They are
divided into five general market
classes: Draft, farm, sugar, cotton,
and mining. Each of these classes
again is graded according to confor
mation, soundness, quality, condition,
and action, and classified as choice,
good, medium, common or inferior.
The general form and appearance
of the miie should resemble-closely
that of a horse, and in judging mule?
the same general points of perfection
are to be looked for. The nearer the
mule approaches the. idaal'desired in
a draft horse the more valuable he is
from a market standpoint, depart
ment specialises state. .Idle form of
th 3 mule should be compact, with a
deep body, broad chest, full flanks,
Short back, and wellrsprung - 1 ribs.
The loins should bo broadi. short, and
thickly ■muscled; "the' croup' 78ng WA
lei el; the hips long, level, and mus
cular; the thighs thick, long and web
muscled, and the hind legs well set,
with broad, clean-cut hocks and flat,
den-e bone. The mule should stand
on good feet that are we’l shaped.
While sty’e and action may not be so
important in a mule as they are ia
the lighter breeds of horses, these
qualities add materially to its value.
A smart, alert mule with a long, free
stride at the walk and a snappy,
balanced trot is highly desired.

Information from a very reliable
source has reached us that the lands
in and around Stone Mountain are
being eagerly sought by eastern cap
italists and others Who have become
greatly interested in the possibilities
of this section as a resort, and are se
curing prices and options cm these

informants stated that he knew a
man who had given an option on his
farm, which consists of several hun
dre 1 acres, and is located three or
four miles from the mountain, for
SIOO.OO per acre.
The newspapers and magazines of
th'’ south have heralded far and wide
that the largest piece of solid granite
in the world is being carved into a
monument of the outstanding figures
of the Confederate army, and simi
