pMLTH MEANS DISEASE and Hio3 aro born in filth, feed on filth
and carry filth with them wherever they alight. Flies hatching
today in an outhouse, stableyard or in garbage, may bring distress to
your family later on in the summer. They may bring typhoid fever,
Bummer complaint, consumption, malar?— or perhaps infantile paralysis.
The fly is almost the exclusive conveyor of diarrhoea and dysentery

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLSS
ANO BOYS SLACKER ?
Are Not Patriotic Unless They Com
j plete Their Education, Sense of
Noted Educators.
The United States Government, not
ed educators and alt men of broad
vision maintain that we must bend
our every effort to maintain our edu
cational standards and through ex
pert leadership prepare for the "fierc
est industrial struggle of the ages,"
which is sure to follow when the war
is over.
A call is made to all students who
have just finished high school train
ing to complete their education and
not fall into the “slacker” class. With
this idea in view the Board of Trus
tees of the University of Georgia pass
ed the following resolution on June 19,
1917, and careful consideration should
be given it by every clear thinking
|
mother and father.
“Resolved, That it is the sense of
the Board of Trustees of the Univer
sity of Georgia that the work of the
University and all the Branch Col
leges should be vigorously pushed dur
ing the coining session.
“That it is the sense of this Board
that there should be no slackening of
the educational work of the state on
account of the war; that the war rath
er should quicken the work of educa
tion, not weaken it, for the problems
after the war will call more and more
for educated men and women to han
dle them for the future.
“That this resolution, as the sense
of the Board, should be communicat
ed to the Boards of all the branch col
leges and the district agricultural
schools of the state, with the earnest
request that there will le no slacken
ing in the educational work of the
University System during the war.”
ECONOMY HINTS FOR
PATRIOTS TO FOLLOW
On account of the high price of food
there is a tendency to sacrifice dairy
cows, beef producing animals and
breeding stock of all kinds. Save
them and grow them out for breed
ing purposes. We should fight animal
on every hand.
Waste and idle lands may be culti
vated. There are many acres in the
state that should he in cultivation and
those who neglect the opportunity to
do this should not expect sympathy
and commiseration if food supplies be
come short during the winter.
The limited number
of staple be empha
sized rather than "fancy and short-sea
soned crops, for these are generally
difficult to grow and produce but lit
tle food. We need an abundance of
corn, legumes, potatoes, beans, cab
bage, turnips and collards. Legumes
are used extensively as meat substi
tutes in the far east.
There is a shortage in farm labor
and to supply this deficiency we must
resort to machine power and labor
saving devices. The present ratio of
production on 'American farms has
only been maintained through these
means and southern farmers have
been slow to appreciate this fact,
though we can use and handle ma
chines as efficiently and economical
ly in this section as elsewhere.
Our soils are frequently deficient in
one or more of the essential plant
food elements and by fertilizing liber
ally we may greatly intensify produc
tion. Besides applying commercial
fertilizer we should sure to save
*ll the compost possible and re apply
to the land all the refuse from the
barnyard.
Plant something every month in the
garden and on the farm.
A crop rotation that will keep the
land busy at ail times will greatly in
crease average production per acre
and prevent soil erosion.
PECAN CASE-BEARER
CONTROLLED BY SPRAY
>
The best time to apply spray mate
rial to control the case-bearer of the
pecan tree is during the last of Au
gust and the first of September, says
J. W. Piror of the State College of
Agriculture.
In spring the iarvae of the casp
bearer feed upon the tender buds and
unfolding leaves, but it is almost Im
possible to control the pest at this
time, inasmuch as the rapidly growing
foliage offers a protection to the In
sects and fresh food is constantly be
ing supplied them. However, spray
ing is effective in August and Septem
ber.
The spray is made up of one pound
of powdered arsenate of lead, two
pounds of unslaked iime and fifty gal
lons of water. It is made in the fol
lowing manner: Slake the lime and
add to this fifty gallons of water, j
Make the powdered lead into a paste
with water, add to the fifty gallons
of lime water and then strain before
using. It should be kept constantly
agitated and, if the pecan grower has
a large orchard, he should purchase
a power outfit to make his applica
tions of spray material. However, a
barrel outfit may be used efficiently
in small operations.
Arsenate of lead comes as a powder
and as a paste and, if the powdered
form is not convenient, two pounds of
paste muat b used instead of one
pound ©t material as called
