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 Ip gill ini nii 11 n 111 h 11111 i 111. it 111 u l:- -r- ■ W 'v 1 ■ j i b * >■ •-< 'wk s i .
