He read last week how (‘,hairnmng

arranged with Mr., Mosher to plant
flowers in the park and he is after the
Douglasville council to get a move on
and follow the example of Marietta.
He says Marietta has the reputation of
being one of the prettiest towns in the
South andihe attributes a large part
of it to the park. He wishes to give
this hint to the Douglasville authori
ties: '‘Did you ever see a man, all
dressed up, looking nicely and every
thing allright, except his shoes needed
shining? That's all the square needs
—just a little shining.”’
Editor Bagwell ought to have been
in Marietta Sunday morning to see
the Park. It had been made as neat

- WILL COME MARCH 23
College on Wheels With
Much That Will Interest
the Farmers*®
The greatest poOs ible interest i 1
ing aroused over the State by the se«
ond tour of the agricultural train
! which is to reach Marietta 8 2a m.,
March 23, and remain two hours.
i The following is the itinerary of
[ the college train on the Louisville &
| Nashville road:
i March 22.—Arrive Canton, Ba. m.;
| arrive Jasper, 16:30 a. m.: arrive Elli
zja_\'. 1:00 a. m.; arrive Blue Ridge,
1 8:30 p. m
; March 23.—Arrive Marietta, 8§ a. m.:
| arrive Cartersville, 10:30 a. m.: ar
iriv«- Fairmount, 1:00 p. m.; arrive
| Chatsworth, 3:30 p. m
~ Cobb county farmers and the peo
ple generally will be on hand to see
the exhibit. ;
The train consists of seven cars, of
which six are used for exhibit pur
poses. There is an Arms Palace Car
for live stock, containing a pair of
choice draft Percheron horses. There
will be a Hereford bull and a grade
cow and calf, showing the benefit of
using pure-bred sires on the native
cattle for the production of a desir
able strain of beef animals. There
will be choice specimens of the Jer
sey and Holstein breeds of cattle
with records of their prudm-tiun.l
Hogs, sheep and poultry will also be
shown. |
The exhibits on the educational
train are tastefully arranged, and pre
sent in graphic form data of interest
on every phase of agricultural prac
tice in the State of Georgia. |
The car of live stock is very at
tractive. The horses, cattle, sheep,
swine and poultry will be exhibited
on a flat car, and this will enable all
to see them to advantage. -
The car of farm machinery will
prove interesting to many. There is
a gas engine, which drives a motor,
showing how light for the farm home
may be generated; various grinding
mills, and a gin such as farmers
might use to delint their choice se
lected seed, and prevent its being
contaminated by pressing through a
public gin; a manure spreader, deep
tilling plow, and various other imple
ments, the use of which means bet
ter preparation of the land and larger
and more profitable crops.
In the baggage cars many of the ex
“hibits shown are behind glass and
present a very attractive sight.
Kverything has been labeled with the
utmost care and one taking enough
time to pass through the car can
gather much valuable information
without the aid of a guide, though
some fourteen experts accompany the
train for the sole purpose of giving
intormation to visitors.
The boys' corn club exhibits, show
ing methods of germinating and test
ing seed, will interest many. The
soil analyses shown are certainly as
important as anything could be to the
farmers of the State. The exhibit of
cotton grades will prove instructive to
all who study them for a few minutes.
The model farm showing how the
land should be divided to enable the
practice of an economic rotation is
one of the most instructive features
of the train, and everyone can afford
to spend some time studying this
unique exhibit.
The working dairy will furnish
many valuable lessons. See it by all
means,
Artificial cotton plants and charts
have been prepared to illustrate the
effect of a deficiency in certain ele
ments, such as potash on plant
growth. A section of plants just as
they grow in the the field forms a
feature of the coton exhibit, and illus
trates a yield of about two and one
half bales per acre. This is one of
the selected strains of cotton pro
duced on the farm which is resistant
to Anthracnose, a disease which
causes millions of dollars loss in
Georgia every year. In addition there
are exhibits of spray machinery and
spray material for controlling injuri
ous insects and plant diseases.
The State Department of Entomol
ogy has a very atractive display.
Valuable data is presented relative to
fertilizers and fertilizing material,
and problems in soil fertility and
farm management. Some twelve
bulietins are carried on this train and
will be distributed to those asking
for them free of cost. They will give
information concerning a great va
riety of topics and aggregate in all
more than 2,000,000 pages of printed
matter. It would take pages to de
scribe the exhibits carried with any
degree of detail or accuracy, but this
summary will give the public some
idea concerning them.
Come and see for yourself You
will be benefited, and those accom
panying the train will extend every
courtesy and consideration within
their power to visitors.

(Feed Citron To Cows
| Says Governor Brown.
. (From the Atlanta Constitution.)
In the citron melon, which bears
the reputation of being worthless ex
cept for making preserves, Governor
Joseph M. Brown has discovered an
uk"(“-’ nt winter feed for cows, hogs
ind other cattle
Governor Brown made his discov
ery quite by accident, but sinece he
has found that live stock will eat the
melons and fatten on them he has
entered actively into the citron-rais
ing business on a much larger scale
at his farm in Cherokee county.
In discussing the possibilities of the
citron as a feed for stock Governor
Brown said:
“One lack which nearly all farm
ers feel is that of green food for stock
in the winter. Particularly is this the
case with fattening hogs.
~ ‘Some years ago I, without intend
ing it, tound something which, in a
measure, is this desideratum. Dur
ing the previous spring 1 had bought
from a Philadelphia house some seed
of the Colorado preserving melon, or,
as it is otherwise called, the citron
melon. I raised these for the pur
pose of making what is termed water
melon-rind preserves. Our little patch
produced quite a number of them, and
besides those we used I gave away
several each to some friends. On the
22d of the next December I was walkt
ing over my place in Marietta and
strolled into the vineyard, and to my
surprise found a pile of citron melons.
These were in as perfect condition
as when they had been pulled in July,
except that the tops of those not
shielded by the grass were a little
soft from the freeze caused by the
intense cold weather.
“Seeing my six Jersey cows a few
steps behind me, I took all the mel
ons across the fence, and with an old
axe split one of them up. I sthen
too the pieces and went toward the
cows, which, smelling them, came
rapidly forward to meet me. I was
amused by the eagerness they show
ed for the slices of melon. I gave
each one a portion and observed that
they manifestly enjoyed it greatly.
“I next split another one and car
ried it to the pen where my fatten
ing hogs were. I threw a piece or
two on the ground before them and
the three hogs got into a lively scram
ble to get them first. I accordingly
went back and split up another one
and threw the pieces to the hogs, and
found that they ate them eagerly.
“Seeing that these melons were
such good keepers, and that the stock
enjoyed them, I had the seed of the
largest ones saved and within the
next few days fed the remaining mel
ons to the fattening hogs.
“The next spring I planted about 90
hills of these melon seed. We had a
spring drouth, with the result that
they did not come up for about five
weeks and, getting a late start, pro
duced only 550 melons. With these,
however, T gave the fattening hogs a
portion every day until they were
killed.
“T saved sufficient seed to plant two
acres the next spring. When they
were gathered in the fall I told my
farm hands to count them, and you
may be surprised to know that the
two acres produced upwards of 4.600
melons. These were hauled to the
barn, and with them I fed hogs, COWS,
mules and horses during the entire
winter. The last of these melons were
fed to the stock on the 16th of the
next April, and were apparently as
sound at that time as they were the
previous fall.
“Stock are exceedingly found of
these melons. They seem to act as
a lubricant to the hogs, and to give
even a greater flow of milk from the
COWS
“The citron melons are easily
raised. Plant them in hills about ten
feet apart, just as vou do watermel
ons, but be sure not to plant them
near your watermelons, because if
you do they will mix and your water
melons will be about as hard as the
citrons
“If our hog-raisers would each have
a patch large enough to furnish mel
ons for feeding fattening hogs, they
would find it a profitable experiment,
but, of course, as above indicated, all
hogs, as well as other hoofed stock,
are fond of them.
“Inasmuch as Georgia is now turn
ing her attention to raising her own
hogs, it has occurred to me that my
experience in the above line may be
‘of some advantage to our farmers in
every quarter of the State.”

[aov. SMITH NOT A CANDIDATE.
| (From The Macon News.)
- It seems certain that Governor-elect
Hoke Smith will nct be a candidate
for United States senator before the
legislature next summer. While we
have seen no direct announcement to
this effect from Governor Smith him
self, the statement has been repeaied
lyv made by some of those nearest to
him, and it has not met with any de
nial. The latest of these indirect ut
terances is made by Editor Jusiah
Carter, formerly secretary to Govern
or Smith, who says in his paper, the
Marietta Journal, that Governor
Smith will not be a candidate to suc
ceed Senator Clay.
After quoting from the Marietta
Journal, the Macan News says:
“It is quite an illustration of the
irony of fate that Mr. Smith should
for the second time be debarred of
entrance into the race for an office to
which he had particularly aspired be
cause of his occupancy of one that he
did not so especially desire, but there
can be no doubt of the wisdom and pa
triotism of his decision as reported to
sacrifice his personal ambition rather
than prejudice or appear to prejudice
the interests of the State by resign
ing the governorship to go to the
Senate. While the record of Govern
or Smith’s former administration pre
eminently approves his talents as an
executive, he is fitted equally well to
“decorate the elevated sphere” of the
United States senate chamber, and his
friends, while applauding the virtue
of his resolution, will share with him
the present disappointment of his
wishes. We believe that it needed
but the exhibition of this self-denial
on the part of Governor Smith to con
firm his great influence and leader
ship of the people. He is young yet,
as years are counted in the councils
of statesmanship, and his great abili
ties will find commensurate work to
do in Georgia until the time and tide
serve that will carry him to the goal
of his ambition, if it should still be
his ambition to go to the senate.”
