EARNINGS OF THE SOIL.
Albeit this is a lean year for agricul
tural profits there is much from which
farmers and farming regions may
gather cheer. According to recent es
timates of the National Census Bureau
the average American farm of be
tween one hundred and seventy-four
acres is worth in the neighborhood of
fourteen jftjousand, four hundred and
nineteen dollars, and is forty-nine per
cent micre valuable now than a decade
ago, saysrtw*%fc*lanta Journal.
That is far from a beggarly showing.
This forty-nine per cent in ten years
represents, as the Louisville Courier-
Journal observes, “a capital increase
of virtually five per cent a year, which
has gone into the safest of all savings,
productive soil.” Dreams of avarice,
it is true, will net be satisfied by these
moderate gains, but sober judgment
will be impressed by them; for after
many a high-born adventure has come
to grief, the five per cent farm will
be drinking in the sui| and rain and
yielding steady harvests. Years there
are when the average is not maintain
ed. In 1921 the farmers* earnings have
shrunk. But, the census analysis
uoint out, “in 1921 a further increase
in/farm values will be shown, and be
tween now and then the will
be about five per cent a year upon cap
ital, invested automatically.” These
figures are subject, of course, to wide
modification for local and individual
differences, being raised by exception
al ability and good fortune, or lower
ed when condition* are contrariwise.
Bat they bear irrefutable witness that
in the long run and in the main, the
American farm Is a faithful rewarded
cf him who tills It.
Particularly interesting are the av
erage Increases in Georgia. Good plow
lands In this state have advanced from
forty dollars an acre in 1918 to forty
nine dollars in 1919 and to sixty-three
dollars in 1920, while the average for
all plow lands, good and pdor, has
moved during the same period from
twenty-eight to forty-six dollars. With
such a record and with assurance
that it will be bettered in the years
ahead, our farmers well may take
courage and go forward.
More interesting than these gains
themselves' are the causes behind
them. The extrafordinary prices of
farm product during the war period
were responsible in part, but there
were other and more substantial fac
tors. Good roads, good schools and
churches, convenient and dependable
markpis. along with skill and thrift —
ever have been and ever will be
the prime factors in enhancing the
value of Georgia farms. For these
touch the vitals of social as well as
economic Interest. Every dollar the
State or the community Invests in edu
cation, in agricultural science and re*
match, in the extension and improve
ment of highways, In the service and
enrichment of rural life, la an invest
ment for the upbuilding of land values
and for tho betterment of the commou
weal. Of special Importance at this
juncture is the question of markets
for crops other than cotton. To supply
this pressing need will be to assure a
quickened and sustained rate of in
crease ru t only in the value of Georgia
farm lands but in every sphere of the
State’s prosperity.
THE SECRETARY’S LAST MOVE.
If F.nglnnd and Japan or anyone else
for thnt nmtter has had any doubt so
far that the limitation of armaments
conference in Washington is an ent’re
ly different proposition from the peace
conference In Versailles, and tnat
Harding and Hughes are as dlffevent
from Wilson In temperament a* dnv
Is different from night, this doubt has
certainly been removed by the secre
tary of state’s frank talk to Balfour
and Kato on Saturday.
Hughes called these two gentlemen
Into an altogether Informal conference
and laid before them the United State*
proposition. He told them that our
plan for a naval holiday and for scrap
ping portions of the navies of all lht*e
countries must go through without ma
terial change. The United States, he
Informed them, will not allow Japan
a larger navy than at first allotted
her. She will not cut Om submarine
tonnage allowed all of the navies, as
England has suggested. Neither will
she agree to theAmalntalnance of one
naval yard by each ccuntry. as Eng
land wishes.
Having been carefully prepare! by
competent imval.experts, the American
plan tnusßfff rttkr gO thtvugh as prepar
'd. or nof go through at all. This is
the virtual ultimatum handed .Miglaud
®°d Japan. That it was done diplomat
b ally, uo one who knows the secretary
of *Ut. doubt*. This however, de
tracts nothing from the firmness with
which Hughes stated his position.
It'd* two warty yet to j****
what tdfen*Hughes’ talk will have,
or ha* had on the English and J®!* 3 j
nest* u m fg&-
Y**i Jiowevn. tfagUnd
cvvle Kt his •Hkanda with the h*m •*
gract*. And It I* h* r di y leas likely that
japan will reluct** M> follow suit. Wf
tuatly every J*l** n *%v newspaper is ftw
ds>armamcnt; (he * whole
ar< • v. ,•£iue i#riHalß
terms; and even tke new premier is
known to favor it strongly.
With this in view, and remembering
that Hughes holds the whip hand in
that he has succeeded in putting
on te defensive before the whole wcrld,
it is hard to Imagine Japan holding up
the whole naval holiday program sim
ply because she finds herself unable to
hold up England and the United States
for an unwarranted concession.
It would seem, therefore, that
Hughes scored another ten-strike when
he notified both Ekigland and JgpgfT
that America's plan must go through
without emasculation if it is to go
through at all. •>
In all earnestness, we very respect
fully ask the Glynn county Board Of
Education to start construction on tha
Memorial school The people
voted for this bond issue many months
ago. Why not heed the call of the
people. Why did we ask for the ex
pression and the authority, if we do
not follow the direction? Give us the
building, gentlemen!
