We need to ‘brighten up’ things around our farm homes,” sald H. G. Hastings, of Atlanta, recognized agricultural au thority and president of the Georgia Association, an orgapization working for the better development of farm conditions and the bringing in of desirable settlers from other states. “One of the greatest obstacles we have in our work of getting new set tlers located in Georgia is the lack of any attempt to beautify the home surroundings by our own peo ple. Weather-bedten, unpainted houses, tront and side yards bare of flow ers, grass, shrubbery, roses and shade trees give a black eye to the farm or community. | “Not only rural Georgia but the en tire rural South needs the biggest kind of a ‘Clean Up, Plant Up, Paint Up' campaign., Go down almost any country road in Georgia or other sister states and hardly one house in ten shows any attempt towards beautify ing the home surroundings. “This is not right. This is not fair to wife, mother or daughter. This is not fair to the boys growing up. Bare, un attractive home surroundings just nat urally encourage the women folks to want to pick up and move to town. The boys have no pride in a home with un sightly, unattractive surroundings. “Further, attractive home surround ings add real cash value to the place. Without attractive home surroundings, almost any farm is unsalable at any where near its value. Well-planted-up, {attractive places often sell far beyond their real value. Once made attractive, the owner is usually so proud of it that desire to sell ceases. “Making homes and home surround ings attractive in either country or town is not expensive. Not necessary to do it all at once. Make a start with beds of easily-grown flowers, add & few roses, flowering shrubs and vines each year; put in a grass plot or small lawn, and almost before one knows it you will have home surroundings so beautiful and attractive that it is the talk of the whole neighborhood. “Clean up, plant up, and, if you can afford it, paint up in 1929.” * s The Picture Show.
