Lawn and Lawn Grass
Upon no one thing does so much
depend in making beautiful home
grounds as upon a god lawn. The
lawn is " the foundation upon
which you build your picture. Af
ter the buildings and the prelim
nary grading are completed comes
the smoothing up and preparation
of the soil for the grass carpet
or "groundwork" of the home pic
ture, without which no picture,
whether on canvas or maue of
living p ] ant growth, is complete.
The id ^ration nd roil arc
Jie urw factors upoi which you
bi:)d a lawn. There are two gen
eral methods of maif ,g the lawn,
by seeding and by budding
If much grading is reoquired
If much grading is required
remove top soil and pile to one
side. Then level and fill with sub
soil. After all grading is com
pleted distribute top soil on
ground adding much soil if land
is poor in humus. Haul in sev
eral loads of manure and harrow.
An ideal soil is one that is mod
erately moist and containing a
• -considerable amount of clay. A
tendency toward compactness is l
beter than a light losce sandyl
soil. A strong clay loam or san
dy loam underlaid by a clay sub
soil is our nearest approval to an'
ideal soil for lawns.
For renervating old lawns, plow
dep at least 15 inches an det rest I
a while, hen cover with several;
wagon loads of manure. Cut to
pieces with disk harrow mix well ।
and thoroughly pulverize, as depe
soil holds and collects more mois
ture. If the soil is too light haul j
in several loads of clay after soil
has be^ 'plowed b<ore putting'
oiL-T^&rdTt Hauling in wod dirt
—is almost as necessary . Remove
surplus clods and trash. Rake
off and prepare a fin? seed bed.
-sow. grass seed on smothe sur
fa« and roll with, heavy roller to
conserve moisture.
Seed may be sown either in
spring or fall. Blue grass is an
excelent variety for shady lawns
and is highly recommended. Sow
Blue grass tn Augusfc or Sept-
Aw^'o# ^'r^ R ^* '^'""^
t intervals until ground
is thoroughly wet from rain. Rye
grass makes good winter lawns.
Bermuda is the foundation plant
ing for lawns in this section. .It
is a hard grass, spreads rapidly
and soon covres the lawn. White
clover is not quite so desirable as
other lawn grass but may be used
alone or mixed with other greas
es. Red clover is seen on large
estates. For qquick results use
Italian Rye grass. .
Plant from one and one-half to
3 bushels seed per acre. When
sowing make off lawns in strips
five or six feet wide and sow one
bushel per acre between strips,
hen check and sow the other bu
shel of seed.
If possible sod. It is more ex
pensive but better results are se
curetd from sodding than from
seeding.
Block sod to be secured and cut
„ straight line down in order to
secure sod of even width. Block
off seed bed with even strips and
place sod in even rows equal dis
tance apart. If necesstry water
sod before digging to hold in ev
en blocks.
Use dirt as binder, Place the
sod, water and press down. In a
short while an even lawn will be
secured.
THE WORTH WHILE CLUB
The Worth While Club held its
first meting on Wednesday after
non at the home of Mrs. Kathlen
Carswell with Mrs. J.II. White
_ hurst presiding.
After the regular business an
interesting program relating to
.lawn shubbery, etc., was given.
The living rom was decorated
very appropriately for the occa
sion with a a variety of autumn
leaves, native shrubs, etc. Late
in the afternoon a delicious salad
cuerse was served.
The membres present were Mrs.
John Vaughn. Mrs. J. H. Balcom,
Mrs. J. H. Whitehurst, Mrs. S. E.
Methvin, Mrs. W. E. Jones, Mis
ses Pearl Soloman and Doris
Jones and Mrs. Julia Kitchens of

Li-Po
In the days when the venerable
Bede was writing church history In
Northumbria, and Charles Martel
hammering Saracens at Tours, and
Leo the Isaurian smashing images
Jin Byzantium, the Intelligent Chi
nese were-wrlting poetrv. And
when, just a thousand years later,
a selection was made from the still
surviving verse of this Tang dynas
ty (Seventh-Ninth centuries A. D.)
even the anthology included nearly
fifty thousand. poems' in nine hun
dred books (which may teach our
sorely tried generation that others
have suffered even worse); and of
the twenty-three hundred poets
there enrolled, the greatest was
LI-Po.—F. L. Lucas, in "Authors."

Hampton Beach Gets a Big Whale
The residents of Hampton Beach, N. 11., were greatly excited the
other day when a forty-foot whale was found iparooned on the rock^
of Great Boar's Head. It was the first whale to go ashore there in
twenty years. When discovered he was alive, but he died during the
day, presumably of exposure and chagrin.
Sound Common Sense
Between the value of a man's
work arid the money a buyer will
pay for a finished article, the capi
talist has his indispensable func
tion. ITe must supply what people
will find they want. But that will
not In itself make them want good
things. Sir Ernest Beven advises
them to save rather than to spend,
but only-taste and morals can tench
them spending. And when they
have done both, they will need to
adjust the social organism by some
giving, which means as much from
mind as from' Sockets. If the dues
for that are left to the state, hun
dreds of millions will be thrown
uw'ay.—Robert Lencourt in the At
lantic Monthly.
Keeping Sea Full of Fish
Th ,'ort Erin biological station
at Port Erin, Isle of Man, makes It
a business to see to it that England
does not suffer a fish or sea-food
famine. During spawning season
millions of eggs are floating in the
ocean, and special boats are sent
out to rescue them. Tow nets of
silk or muslin gather the eggs, and
as quickly as possible they ar?
taken to the hatchery and put In
hatching boxes set in big tanks.
There they are safe, and nature,
with the aid of a continuous sup
ply of real sea water pumped from
the ocean, does the rest, says Tit-
Bits.

THE MIDDLE GEORGIAN
JEFFERSONVILL E. TWIGGS COUNTY. GEORGIA. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 11th 1926
the leading collegese as reference
and text books. The volume of
sales of these books in the United
States, as well as in France, was
highly encouraging to Mr. Wat
son during his lifetime, it was
stated, and caused him to cno
tinue producing other historical
works,, such as Life and Times
of Thomas Jefferson, Bethany, a
story of the Old South, Waterloo,
Life and Times of Andrew Jack
son, a story of the South and
West,, and the Last Campaign of
Napoleon, the latter never hav
ing been published as it was com
pleted just before his death in
Washington in September, 1922.
As a candidate at one time for
president of the United States,
and at another time candidate for
vice president, Mr. Watson made
a deep impression in every section
of the country by his oratorical
ability and intellectual powers.
As the originator of rural free
delivery of mails, he was known
in the most isolated parts of the
country, qfc ^^frfawem
iri both the House and Senate at
Washington, together with his
literary writings, made him a
national figure.
Big Executive's Plan
The president of one of the larg
est public utilities corporations in
the country, who began as an un
derclerk, frankly admits that his
organization makes a ,practice of
paying beginners a little less than
they are worth. Why? Because
they can speed the new man up bv
a raise a short while after he has
joined the concern and they know
he's a comer. That insures loyalty
t'o the corporation and keeps men
<n their toes. And it breeds the de
sire to get another raise.—Paul
Kinkead, in Liberty.
Ancient Spelling
"Always wear a napron when
eating a , orange," may not hieet
wlTh the approval of a modern
proofreader, but two centuries ago
"napron'' and "norange" were cor
rect. The change in spelling of
these words Is attributed to an er
ror made by some one, who, being
unfamiliar with them, guessed at
the proper place to put the tetter
"n" —and, guessed wrong. "Napron"
had Its derivation from "napkin" or
"nap," while "norange" wa, the
English spelling given the Spanish
word, "naranja."
Famous Inscription
The book 'held in the left hand
of the Statue of Liberty represents
a "Book of Laws," which the sculp
tor, Bartholdi, says was to remind
.the Incoming- Immigrant's that with
out obedience to law there could be
no true liberty. The inscription
thereon reads as follows: July IV,
MDCCCLXXVI." & was the Inten
tion of the French to present the
gift upon the hundredth nnnlver
sa% of our independence. There
was delay and disappointment, and
the official presentation was not
ihade until July 4, 1884, in Paris.
WHAT GEORGE NEEDS
FOR GEORGIA'S DEVELOPEMENT
When one stops, reflects, anal
yzes and compares the marvelous
progress that is being made .in
Georgia, there sems reason fro
the past decade, we have ben con
fronted with innumerable obsta-I
cles, but they have ben, or are
being, finally overcome.
We have had our many set-;
backs, panaceas have ben offered;
for our ailmnets. At the proper
time, proper remedy has ben ap
plied, to the end that Georgia is
steadily forging ahead. Our eco
nomic position is sound, both in
dustrially and agriculturally.
Georgia, probably, was never bet-,
ter fortified financially than shel
is today. There appears to be
ample monies to take care of any
emergencies that might arise.
This was never better illustrated
than at the recent meting in At
lanta when a group of bankers
from over the state met with Mr.
Eugene Meyer, in conference, for
the purpose of relieving the dis
tress frmo over-production of cot
ton.
Industrial and agricultpral pro
duction are at high tide, the em
ployment situation is satisfacto
ry, labor is well paid and con
tended.
Eastern and northern capital
are awakening to the innumerable
opportunities offered them in,
Georgia for sound investment and
to meet this influx of capital for
. industrial developent, the powre
companies are making great
strides jn expading facilities fro
electrical energy.,
Georgia now has a developed
horse-power of over 375,000 and a
potential horse-power of, possibly
three-quarter million. This, link
ed up with the super-power sys
tem of the southeast, affords the
manufacturers an ample supply
of electrical energy, at reasonable
rates. The power companies are
to be commended fro their inter
est in rural electrification.
In looking back over the twelve
year period, 1924 to the present
—what do we find—a large in,
crease in spindles, there being in
operation on July 31st, of the
present year 170 cotton mills with
an increase in productive spind
les of more than 65 per cent. In
1910, cgtton ^mils in Georgia were
.uftaming. jofr&t&-h#tt ^Jlion
bales of cotton per annum. In
1925, the state's coton consump
tion hda reached 997,942 bales.
This indicates that our mills are
reaching the point of cotton con
sumed almost equal to the state's
production.
Oil mills have increased their
invested capital over ten million
dollars; fertilizer plants over six
million dolars; clay products
plants over eight milion dolars;
marble and granite quarries ovre
twelve milion dolars; electric pow
er and light plants in excess of
one hundred million dolars.
In 1924 we were expending fro
highways approximately four[
million dolars per annum, while
there is now being expended over
fiften million dolars annually on
road building.
Agricultural
Tremendous progres has ben
made with diversification of crops
as exhibited by recent figures
through the columns of "The
Week." It would be di cult to
estimate the actual increase in
dollars and cents from the effects
of soil building nd" the increased
production through the planting
of leguminous crops. The idea
has taken firm hold in Georgia
that economic liberty to the far
mres can only be achieved thro
ugh intensive cultivation and fer
tilization, thereby insuring in
creased production per acre.
* Thousands of acres are being
devoted to pasturage, alfalfa and
poultry is on a more stable bas
is than it has ever been. The
farmers have learned, through
sad experience, that there is no
relief from financial strain withl
a one-crop system; that the only|
avenue to financial gain is thru
a balanced farming program, rais
ling their sod requiremnets, sup
-Iplying Icoal demands and raising
some cotton as a surplus crop.

SOIUSURVEY OF
TWIGGS FINISHED
Mr. Richard W. Smith, Assis
tant State Geologist, who has
been conducting a survey of the
clay resources of Twiggs Coun
ty, has completed his work and
is moving to Macon to work Bibb
and the upper end of Twiggs
Counties.
MMr. 'Smith states that the de
posits of kaolin and refractory
clay in the county are mainly con
fined to four districts; an area
on the &ftyn and Irwinton roads
near tl%sHci.nson County lin^
ocntainiftg .™fefractory clay!; the
east of J fyzpatrick containing
soft ka fy of excellent quality;
the Do Branch district; and the
,tyi,' fl\ r&ed by |he Southern.
Railway from Adams Park to
Reid Station. The best deposits in
these districts will eventually be
worked,, those nearest the rail
road standing the best chance of
early development.
According to Mr. Smith fullers'
earth deposits are found at many
places in the county, but the de-.
posits around Pikes Peak are
thickest and are of superior quali
ty. They contain enough of the
material to supply the demand
for several hundred years.

The Gift of Water
The gift of a drinking fountain

Thither the pigeons came, and gos
siping girls with water urns, and
grimed travelers, and paunchy mer

Admirable Citizen
The most admirable citizen Is he
who votes at every election—and
votes quietly. Wty Is It that some
men can't approach an election
without shooting off their mouths
a month in advance?—Atchison

$2.00 A YEAR ffi ADVANCE
IMr.1 Mr. Porter. "We need to increase
the apple prestige which we al
ready enjoy in certain parts of
Europe. We need to find and de
velope 'more markets for this
fruit. Georgia apples are fast
becoming as famous as Georgia
peaches."
The apple is one of the best of
I Georgia fruits as a supply of real
ifod value in the form of carbo
hydrates, vitamines and minerals,
Mr. Porter said: The sugar or
carbohydrate of an apple, he
shows, is of great nutrittive val
ue because it is supplied in its
most wholesome and digestible
form. He said further that the
mineral found in aples help to
purify the blod, build bone, ctlls
and nerve tissues.
[there is need of more locomotives;
more freight and passenger cars
land last, but not least, the rail
roads are expected to provide for
[the safety of passengers.
Installing safety devices is a
I considerable item of expense, it
j was claimed. It was also shown
, that double tracks hvae improv
ed service and lessened transpor-I
I tation risks, both to passengersj
and freight. . The exevutives say|
that under modern methods of
railroading economies have been
I effected by which the railroad's'
dollar goes farther than it ever|
did before, and greater efficency:

The World Too Much
It seems to me that eyerybod)
needs occasionally to get away
from people and things. They crowd
In on you, so that you can't think
things out, quietly and surely.
Life gets all muddled up. You
can't see where you are going. You
don't know whether you are think
ing- your own thoughts or merely
thinking the echoes of other peo
ple's.
I believe a place of escape keeps
you from losing yourself, If you
get away and find out whether the
thing you are doing is what you
really intended to do. — Glenn
Hunter, in the American Magazine
