GEORGIA'S INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT ' HALTED BY SOCIALISTIC DOGTRINE PROMOTED BY ATLANTA NEWSPAPERS . Below is printed a letter from a' progressive Georgia business man in which he tells of the changed attitude of Northern investors toward the pe-’ can 'industry because they ‘“do not want to put money in a state whose capital is so tainted with Bolshevism. What Mr. Perry says of the pecan' industry is equally true of every oth er business. Money can not be had in Georgia to build street Railways, Interurban Railways, Gas Works, Power Plants or transmission lines for the same reasons as are so plainly told you by Mr. Perry. Nobody wants to put money in a State whose capital is so tained by Bolshevism. No ex tensions of Electric transmission lines, Street Railways or interurban Railways are possible unless new capital can be obtained for the cost of their construction and new capi-, tal has been frightened away from Georgia by the support given to a few socialists by Atlanta papers. ' These men who are preaching pub lic ownership are indifferent to the damage they are doing to the State of Georgia by killing new enter prises. They care nothing about the effects of their misrepresentations but seek only political power. The same falsehoods are being used in Georgia as were used in Seattle to induce that city to buy its street railways, where in 21 months the street railways un er Municipal Management created a deficit of $1,503,500, and where the street Railway employees are now be ing paid by City warrants instead of Cash. It is just a repetition in Geor gia of the same tricks practised in Seattle where the public have been fooled by political adventurers into voting $15,000,000.00 ostensibly to obtain cheaper car fares but in real ity to enable the politicians to play with in City politics. Car fares have been increased far beyond what the private company charged and .thei Seattle tax-payres are out a mxlhon' and a half dollars in 21 months.

Those hard-headed business men are satis fied with a small rate of interest, but they demand comeplete safety of their investment, and insist that the moral risk be reduced to the mini mum. : “The Municipal League may not know that there are in South Geor gia about sixty thousand acres of magnificent pecan orchards, and that almost every orchard has been finan ced by northern men. The nut crop brings into Georgia about $2,000,000 annually, which will largely increase as the years go by, and practically every dollar of this is due either di rectly or indirectly, to the outside money that made it possible to bring thes» orchards to maturity. ‘ “It may seem a far cry from ‘water power’ to ‘pecan orchards, but the same type of men finance both, and they have already become weary about helping us to build our pecan orchards, and frankly tell me they fear for the safety of their in vestments, if the enthusiastic dream ers of the Municipal League get con trol of our legislature. | “I have no personal or financial in terest in any corporation in the state, ‘except in certain pecan orchards in 'Randolph, Calhoun,- Lee, Dougherty, ‘and Mitchell counties. . “] have no interest or concern in the Atlanta ‘gas rate,’ nor do I care in the least whether or not Atlanta buys or makes her own power, but when self-seeking politicians would,T with one hand, tear down our consti tutional limitation on taxation, while | with the other they wave the red flag of socialism, then I feel that it is time for the sober minded business ' men of Georgia to get in the fight, ‘and sweep those fellows into the po litical rubbish heap, | “You have my best wishes in your |manly fight against the nefarious 'schemu of the Municipal League. and:- I hope that you will feel free ito call on me, if I can assist you in i any way, not as a lawyer, but as a business man proud of his native state, and proud of the part he has taken in helping to build up some of !the waste places of South Georgia. . “Again assuring you of my inter est, and with highest personal regards and best wishes, I am, “Yours very truly, : de. “A.

There are surprisingly few dairy men who can give any definite answer as to what they mean by a good cow. The usual answers are: ‘She came from fine stock; she gives four gallons of milk when fresh; her mother was the best cow in the community. All of these are in a cow’s favor, but when? a 2 man feeds cows grain and hay and devotes time to their care, all of which represent cash value, something more definite than these answers must be known. A cow’s worth is properly deter mined by the amount of profit her milk, cream, or butter-fat, manure, or calf will pay over the value of the feed she eats and time given to her care. lln other words, dairymen sell their feed and time to the cows. Every dairyman should know the amount of milk, cream, or butter-fat each cow produces, not for a few months when the cows are fresh, but for the entire year. Some cows are profitable for a few months after freshening, but soon drop off in milk until they average for the year such a small quantity it does not pay a profit. . ’ Just how much a cow should pro duce to be profitable depends to a large extent on the price received for her product. The butter-fat basis used by creameries probably will ap ply to the greatest number of dairy men. At average prices paid for fat, no cow should be kept long that pro duces less than 200 pounds of butter fat in a milking period. This should be not less than 300 days. For milk testing 4 1-2 per cent of fat, which is near the average for Southern cows, approximately 4,330 pounds of milk (500 gallons) would be required, or an average of one and two-thirds gallons per day for the 300 days. This standard certainly is as low as any should start with, and is one which all could meet, but with which none should be satisfied, Many cows that produce less would exceed 200 pounds with proper feed and care, Every dairyman should have a standard for his cows and yearby year, by improved feeding and use of good bulls, should raise this standard. Where this is done, what was consid ered a good cow at one time will not be considered a good cow at another, A whole herd averaging 300 and 400 pounds of butter-fat yearly is entirely within the reach of any dairyman who will yse reasonable in telligence and energy. Above these figures are unbounded possibilities for those who will study and work, The recent Guernsey record of 1,103 pounds of butter-fat proved this. The higher the production of the herd the more profit and pleasure there is to dairy business, and the dairyman is entitled to both.—.J. H. McCain, in The Progressive Farmer. KNOWLEDGE.

THE MARIETTA JOURNAL TURNING CATTLE ON PAS. : | TURE IN THE SPRING. Every owner of a cow welcomes the coming of green grass in the spring time. And it goes withouti saying that many eof ‘the poorly-fed Cows are as highly pleased. The labor and expense connected with winter feeding is done away with, and each cow is expected to give the best re sults of the year on grass, , The above facts are so interesting that many of us are over anxious to make the change. It is best to go somewhat slowly in changing from dry feed to grass, This is especially true with heavy-milking cows. The young, immature grass, such as we have in early spring, contains a large amount of water and a small amount of nutrients. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, for heavy-milking cows to consume enough grass to supply the body with sufficient nutri ents for both maintenance and milk production. . Another reason for changing feed gradually rather than suddenly is the effect_on the taste of the milk. In changing a cow from a grain ration to grass entirely, a very marked taste is developed in the milk, while scarcely any change in the taste of the milk is noticed if this change 1‘ in feed is made gradually. In con nection with the effect on flavor it might be said that there is no uni form decrease in the fat content of the milk under such conditions. -« .

INDUSTRY | necessary to continue feeding some rgrain to cows producing milk. There is no question but that a cow will produce more milk if fed grain while on pasture, and if a large yield is ofi more importance than economy of production, grain should certainly be fed. If the pasture is good the feed ing of grain may not show immediate tiondirect results, so far as milk pro duction is concerned, but cows are brought to better body condition and are likely to maintain their flow of milk longer during the balance of the lacation. Some authorities claim that they may do better thq following lacation period if some grain is fed. On scant or dried-up pastures it is necessary to supply additional feed to cows, in order that the flow of milk may be maintained. This is ex-‘ tremely important where a shortage of pasture feed is likely to come utl a time when hot weather and flies tend to make cows uncomfortable and largely reduce their milk production. Too much cannot be said in favor of good pastures, but they should be used with consideratian of both the animals grazing upon them gnd the life of the pastures. On account of the watrey growth during early spring stock should not be turned out too early. To do so might injure the pasture to such an extent as to lower its value materially and, at the same time, bring undesirable results from the animals. D.
