Tlie Average Chemical Compo sition of the Principal Soil i Types of Georgia L. M. Carter, Junior Professor Soil Chemistry, Ga. Col. Of Agriculture In the progress of the soil survey work for the past five years, the De partment of Chemistry has made many analyses of the principal types of soil characteristic of the various sections of the state. The average of these analyses represent the chemical com position, that is, the plant food con tent, of the predominant soil types found in the state. The analyses show a wide difference in the plant food content of the soils of the different sections of the state as well as strik ing differences between the various types in the same sections. The following table gives the total pounds of plant food found in the principal types of the various regions as analyzed in the chemical laboratory of the State College of Agriculture, based on a depth of approximately 21 Inches.

Of course the productivity of any soil will also Corn For Early Forage By John R. Fain, Prof, of Agronomy, Gecrgia State College of Agr. With a large per cent of the oat crop . killed by the freezes, the problem of an early forage crop becomes import ant. Com is as promising as any we have both for grain and forage. Some of the early varieties like Adams Early mature in 90 to 100 days or Hickory King in 115 to 120. The yields of these will not be as. large as the yields of our Health About Gone Many thousands of women Buttering from womanly trouble, have been benefited by the use of Cardui, the woman’s tonic, according to letters we receive, similar to this one from Mrs. Z.V. Spell, ofHayne, N.C. “1 could not stand on my feet, and just suffered terribly,” she says. “As my suf fering was so great, and he had tried other reme dies, Dr. had us get Cardui. . . I began Improving, and it cured me. I know, and my doctor knows, what Car dui did for me, for my nerves and health were tbout gone.” TAKE GUDU9 The Woman’s Tonic She writes farther? *1 am in splendid health ... can do my work. I feel I owe it to Cardui, for I was in dreadful condition.” If you are nervous, run down and weak, or suffer from headache, backache, etc., every month, try Cardui. Thousands of women praise this medi cine for the good it has done them, and many physicians who have used Cardui successfully with their women patients, for years, endorse this medi cine. Think what it means to be in splendid health, like Mrs. Spell. Give Cardui a trial. All Druggists J 72 Cynical Man Wrote Thle. It Is a mistake to imagine that all women are fond of retailing gossip.

Drainage, physical and mechanical condition, or ganic matter and thoroughness and depth of tillage will all have much to do with the soil's ability to give up its plant food to erops. Undoubt edly, too, the mineral forms in which the plant food elements occur will greatly influence their availability. Es pecially is this true of the potash and phosphoric acid. Experiments seem to indicate that the soils of the Lime stone Valleys and those of the Coastal Plain give up their potash more readily than do the soils of the Piedmont Pla teau and the Appalachian Mountains. It will be readily seen that nitrogen is deficient in all soils of the state, excepting some of the bottom lauds. Increasing the nitrogen content is of first importance in any system of soil building. Phosphoric acid is also gen erally deficient. With a few- excep tions, the soils of north and middle Georgia are well supplied with potash, though the poor physical and mechan ical condition of the soil retards the processes that bring it into availab 1- ity. In the marine soils of the Coastal plain, potash is uniformly low, and should be a constituent of all fertiliz ers when it can be had at a reason able price. The need of potash will be more keenly felt the longer the present potash famine continues. standard prolific corns but a small area might well be devoted to them for early grain. Corn sown broadcast at the rate of a bushel per acre will produce forage more quickly than almost any other crcp. It grows off much faster than Sorghum and will be ready for use earlier. After it is cut the land can go into cowpeas for hay provided an early variety of corn has been used and early planting practiced. In this way the shortage of feedstuff's in tha Spring can be largely averted.
