A Country Editor's Creed.
By M. V. Atwood, In South Dakota Rural
Press.
1 believe in my job.
I believe that running a gno<
country newspaper which serve;
and represents its community is ;
bigger job I ban running t he bigges
metropolitan daily. Because of m.\
belief—
I shall at all times be fair t<
everyone in my community, expect
jng frequently fo be charged will,
being unfair.
I shall not discriminate against
the person who does not advertise
in my paper or who does not buy
printing of me.
I shall not be afraid to champion
the poor man’s cause for fear of the
wrath of the rich man.
Nor shall i be afraid to stand by
the rich man when he is right for
fear of being charged with having
sold out to him.
i shall temper justice with mercy.
My columns shall not shout aloud
to my community the shame of an
individual or of a family when that
shouting can render my communi
ty no good.
On the other hand, i shall nol
condone evil doing in high places
lest in publishing the evil deed to
my community my pocketbook
shall suffer.
I shall scan what goes into my
advertising columns as closely as

of my paper speaks of me.
I shall always remember that
politics is not a game but a respon

make sure what motive is behind
my utterances.
I shall not hate my competitor,
but remember he is human and
likely to err the same as I.
1 shall belong to, pay my dues

profession, believing that it is a
high calling.
In brief, I shall conduct my
newspaper like a gentleman and a
Christian, realizing that no minis

which 1 have been called.

Early Seeding of Small Grain.
Earliness of seeding wheat and
oats has proven to be the most
important factor in securing large
yields, in experiments conducted
for six years in Athens, Georgia,
says the Extension Division of the
Georgia State College of Agricul
ture.
Oats seeded on October 15, gave
an average of 39.5 bushels per acre
for the six year period, while those
seeded on November 15, averaged
only 17 bushels per acre for the
same period. This shows an in
crease in yield of 132 per cent in
favor of the early seeding.
A similar test with wheat for a
five year period shows that when
seeded on October 15. the average
yield is 35.7 bushels while the
November seedings have averaged
only JB.B bushels, or an increase
of 16.9 bushels from early seeding.
Above Macon oats and wheat
should be sown at least by October
20, and further south November
Ist.
Rye for seed purposes may be
seeded slightly later with no de
crease in yield.
Land for grain should be broken
at once where possible and allowed
to stand until just before seeding
time when it should be harrowed
down smooth. Where grain is to
follow cotton the green stalks can
be turned under, as soon as the
cotton is picked, the land rolled
and the grain seeded with a disk
drill.
An application of 200-300 pounds
of acid phosphate at planting time
and 100 pounds nitrate soda or 80
pounds sulphate of ammonia about
February 15, to March 1, will pay
in most cases.
Among the best varieties of oats
tested at the College are Appier,
Fulghum, Bancroft, Hundred
Bushel and Texas Rust Proof.
In flic extreme northern part of
the state, Fulcaster wheat is one
of the best varieties, but further
south the Blue Stem, or Georgia
Red will give the best yields.
To Reside in Athens.
Athens, Ga., September 7. —One
of the world’s greatest religious
leaders, Dr. Campbell Morgan, of
London, England, has selected
Athens, Ga., as his home in order
that his children may enjoy the
educational advantages of the uni
versity, according to an authori
live announcement made here
Tuesday night.
“This is my third visit to Athens
during the twenty five years since
I made my first voyage to Ameri
ca.’’ said Dr. Morgan in discussing
his choice of the University City
as liis home, “and I think it is an
ideal place in which to live and
educate my children.”
Dr. Morgan, who is known as
one of the greatest, if not t h e
greatest Bible scholars in the world,
will hold a two week’s Bible con
ference for ministers of all denomi
nations in Athens in March. He
is well known throughout the state,
having conducted several series of
lectures in Atlanta.
He will move to Athens Septem
ber 15 and will put his son in the
University of Georgia, and his two
younger daughters in Lucy Cobb
institute.
Dr. Morgan, who was formerly
pastor of Westminister chapel in
London, is greatly interested in
modern history. He is a personal
friend of Lloyd George and other
world leaders in polities and states
manship.
