RYE AS A COVER CROP The value of cover crops can not De emphasized too strongly, am} while a *great variety of crops may be used for this purpose, jnany of them only give a profitable return when seeded relative ly early in the fall. Of all the cover enpps which may be sown late in the fall to advantage, there is none superior to rye. Of course, where it is intended to use this crop for fall pasturage it must be sown early, but when intended merely to act as a cover crop and aid in preventing erosion and assimilating and holding much unused plant food as may be available in the soil, there is nothing better. Rye also has ' the very- great advantage of growing under condi tions where most other cereals would fall. It has a wide adaptability as to soil and climatic conditions, and grows not only well on the soils of the coastal plain but those of the Piedmont section as well. It has the very great advantage of fitting into almost any rota tion, and it can be seeded after all other crops have b£en planted and still make a profitable return to the land owner. It develops earlier in the spring than any other crop which makes it available for pasture before natural or artificial meadows can be utilized. Every person interested in the feeding and handling of live stock knows how impor tant a factor an early green pasture be comes- Moreover, it grow’s very rapidly in the spring, and makes more top to turn under in a given length of time than any other crop. It can thus be used to increase thet vegetable supply of the soil and still turned under in sufficient time to enable the farmer to prepare his land admirably for corn, cotton or other crops When cut early rye makes a fair qual ity of hay, and of course, it has con siderable value as a grain feed for cei- tain classes of live stock. When grown for grain it should be seeded at the rate Low Fares!

When rye can be planted early in the season, drilling it in wi$h an ordi nary grain drill is desirable. One of tne three-hoe drills now* on the market can also be used to advantage. When seed ed late, especially on heavy clays, it planted in open furrows it will make a better root development and a more vig orous growth of top. It is a little more- trouble to seed it in this way, but it ee an advantage always to plant a crop in a manner which is likely to insure the largest return to the land owner. While rye will grow on a great A'ariety of soils, including those which are rela tively poor, it naturally makes a more vigorous growth and a better return where the soil is in good physical condi tion and has been properly prepared ana fertilized. A twenty bushel crop of rye with the straw estimated to be 2,000 pounds will remove from the soil about 20 pounds of nitrogen, 16 pounds of phos phoric acid and 24 pounds of potash. Of this amount 19 pounds of the nitrogen, 10 pounds of the phosphoric acid and i pounds of the potash will be in the gram and the balance in the straw. Where rye is used for green forage and a yield of as much as 15,000 pounds is obtained, 68 pounds of nitrogen, 30 pounds of'phos phoric acid and 98 pounds of potash Will be removed from the land It is impor tant to bear these facts in mind and re member that a crop can only yield ii> proportion to its ability to assimilate m proper sequence and quantity the essen tial elements of plant food as enumerated above. In fertilizing rye where it is to be used for grain, it would appear wise to supply in commercial forms not less than twenty pounds of nitrogen, ten pounds of phosphoric acid and twenty pounds of potash. On very sandy soils twenty-five to thirty pounds of the last named element will not be too much to use. Where rye is grown for green forage at least twice these amounts should be used, and on very thin and poor land, probably three times. Of course, where forage is grown it is well to remember that there will be at least twice as many plants to feed and maintain as where grain is produced; hence the necessity of more liberal feeding. B.esides, intensive prac tice has always proved the most profi table on the American farm. In fact, it is a lack of this system which is re sponsible for the steady decline in yield per acre of many of our staple crops. In applying fertilizers to rye in the fall it would be good practice, there fore, to use an 8-3-6 at the rate of 300 pounds per acre. On thin or sandy lands the amount applied should be in creased to 500 pounds, while on soils suitable for truck production, the pot ash had best be raised to 7 or 8 per cent. The reader will at once say that a surplus of phosphorus has been sup plied in proportion to the other ele ments. : The well known deficiency of most of our soils in this constituent accounts for advising its use in the proportions mentioned. Only a small amount of nitrogen should be applied in the fall, the balance being used as a top application in the spring. For this purpose nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia may be used. The best re sults with nitrate of soda will be se cured on land which has been previously limed, and when the latter is used as a top dressing, it is generally best to scatter it over the soil and harrow it in which will incorporate the plant food with the soil and at the same time ben efit the crop. A suitable formula for use on rye may be prepared by mixing together 450 pounds of cotton *seed meal, 200 pounds of nitrate of soda, 1,160 pounds of acid phosphate and 200 pounds of muriate of potash. This formula would contain approximately 3 per cent of nitrogen, 8 per cent of phosphoric acid and 5. per cent of potash. On lands in a badly de pleted condition, a better formula to use might be 200 pounds of cotton seed meal, 700 pounds of tankage, 700 pounds of acid phosphate and 200 pounds of muriate of potash. In this instance 100 pounds of filler would have to be added to bring the gross weight up to 2,000 pounds. An application of 400 to 500 pounds of this formula should be found satisfactory on soils of the type mentioned. Every farmer should make an en deavor to plant an area to rye to be used for one of the various purposes enumerated. It is a capital investment. The "seeding of this crop may be fol lowed with considerable success up to the middle of December in the average season. Do not miss the opportunity which this crop affords to serve the several important purposes in the econ omy of Georgia farming mentioned In this paper. * * * RECEIPTS FOR CURING PORK. ,T. ft. W., Savannah, Gjd., writes: I would like a good recipe for making all pork sausage, and also for curing pork. Below we give you the best recipes that we know of for the curing of meat and the making of all-pork sausage: The meat must be properly and thor oughly cooled to insure good keeping qualities when cured. If salted before the animal heat is out, the shrinkage of the muscles causes the retention of injurious gases, giving an offensive odor to the meat. Neither should meat be frbzen when salted as the action of the frost will prevent the proper penetra tion of the salt and uneven curing will result. It is important that m£a£ be cured as soon as cooled and while still fresh. Ordinarily 24 to 36 hours after slaughtering will allow sufficient time for cooling. A barrel may be used for Cotton Seed!

For each 100 pounds of meat weigh out five pounds of salt, 2 pounds of granulated sugar, and 2 ounces of salt peter and mix them thoroughly. Rub the meat every three days with a third of the mixture. While the meat is j curing it is best to have it packed in a Darrel or tight box. For the sake of convenience it is advisable to have two barrels and to transfer the meat from the one to the other each time it it rubbed. After the last rubbing the meaf should lie in the barrel for a week or ten days when it will be cured and ready to smoke. To cure nicely it is advisable to have a cool and rather moist place in which to keep it. Pork sausage should only be made from clean, fresh pork. To each three pounds of lean meat add one pound of | fat. As the pork usually used for sau sage is the shoulder, neck and lean trim mings, the sausage is quite likely to be too fat unless part of the fat is re- j moved and used for lard. Mix the fat and lean meat together in chopping. Where a rotary cutter is used it is best to cut the meat twice. After it is cut the first time spread it out thinly and season. One ounce of pure, fine salt, one- half ounce of ground, black pepper, and one-half ounce of pure leaf sage, rub bed fine, to each four pounds of meqt will suit the taste of most persons. The seasoning should be sprinkled over the cut meat and the meat again run through the cutter to mix the seasoning thoroughly. This will mix the spices more thoroughly than can be done by hand. For immediate use the sausage may be packed away in stone jars or crocks to be sliced for frying. Casings for sausage can be bought at 3 cents a pound, and at this price it will hardly pay to clean them at home. Sausage may be kept for some time in a large jar if a thin coat of lard is put over the top. * * * VARYING THE RATION FOR HOGS. R. L. H., Chandlers, N. C., writes: I have two hogs that weigh about 200 pounds each and they are down in their legs. You can lift them up and they seem to stand on their toes like they were drawn back. They have a good appetite. Would be glad if you can give me a remedy. The chances are that you have your hogs confined in a pen and are feeding them exclusively on corn. If so, they are not getting enough exercise or enough protein and mineral matter to supply the needs of the body. You may also be feeding kitchen slops which may contain objectionable materials in the form of soap powders used for cleansing dishes. If so, stop feeding this class of food. If you can secure a little digester tankage to add to the retion of corn you will improve it ma terially. You should feed in the propor tion Q.f 90 pounds of corn to 10 pounds of tankage. We prefer to grind the corn and mix the tankage with it and feed as a thin slop. If you have any skim milk you may add this to the ra tion also. If you can not secure the tankage you may get a little shorts and ship stuff and mix in the propor tion of two parts to three parts 'of corn. Let your hogs have some exer cise if possible. Prepare the following mixture and put it in the pens or lot where the hogs can get at it: Wood charcoal 1 pound, sulphur 1 pound, so dium chloride 2 pounds, sodium bicar bonate 2 pounds, sodium hyposulphite 2 pounds* sodium sulphate 1 pound, anti mony sulphide 1 pound. See that their bed is dry and clean and well supplied with fresh litter so as to prevent them from taking cold and developing rheu matism. * * • THREE BALES OF COTTON PER ACRE. E. W. B., Madison. Ga.. writes: 1 no ticed in a paper an illustration showing three bales of cotton per acre grown by the State College of Agriculture- at a cost of $40.00 for fertilizer. Will you ltindly in form me if the statement is at all true aud tell me how this was accomplished? Build Suitable Hog Houses When hogs are handled in large num bers, or where twenty or more brood sows are kept a hog house large enough to accommodate the majority of the stock is often found. This system has the advantage of enabling the breed er to handle his hogs with less expendi ture of labor and time than is possible if they are scattered over a larger area. The picture to which you refer is au thentic and the results indicated were obtained in the college demonstration field. The land in this field is a cecil sandy loam, and previous to coming into'the possession of the college had been badly abused. It has been built, up through a systematic rotation of crops, the use of yard manure, green crops plowed under, and the applica tion of commercial fertilizers propor tioned so as to meet the deficiencies in the soil and the needs of th$ crop. In 1910 a fertilizer test conducted with cotton where no fertilizer was used re sulted in the production of 380 pounds of seed c*>tton; where ten tons of yard manure were applied broadcast and a complete fertilizer used the yield be came 1,465 pounds; when the manure Desirable type of sow for producing large litter a.

Mr. Fotts raised these potatoes on his farm, near Jefferson. was used in the drill row with a com plete fertilizer the yield was 1,861 pounds; where a rotation of crops was followed, cowpeas .being turned under to build up the soil and a complete fer tilizer used with five tons of yard ma nure, the yield became 2,680 pounds of seed cotton. In 1911, three 500 pound bales of cotton were raised on an acre of land in the demonstration field. This cotton averaged 41 per cent of lint and there were about 10,000 plapts on the acre. Cowpeas were plowed under in 1909. In 1910 the land raised approxi mately 100 bushels of corn per acre and the cotton mentioned the following year. The fertilizer used under the c€tton was five tons of yard manure per acre un der the drill row and 1,000 pounds of a 9-3-4 formula. The variety of cotton was Sunbeam, a strain which has been produced at the college. This was nat urally a) very exceptional yield* but as much can be grown again on the same land under the same combination of cir cumstances. Of course, you understand that this land was well supplied with vegetable matter through the rotation of crops practiced, the use of yard ma nure and the plowing under of legumes. It was also liberally fertilized, as you will see, with a high-grade formula. An especially good strain of cotton was used which had been carefully selected and was well adapted to the soil and climatic conditions prevailing here. CANNING SWEET POTATOES GEORGIA. I*. W. R., Portland, Ore., writes: I would like to know what opportunity there would be tor tile establishment of factories for the canning of Sweet potatoes in Geor gia. In what sections of the state are the potatoes mosly grown, txiso the vari eties, and prices obtained tor merchantable stock. IN There should be an excellent oppor- portunity for the establishment of fac tories for the canning of sweet pota- tics in Georgia. This state is one of the greatest producers of sweet pota toes. and they are of superior flavor and quality, as all know who Wave tested them. That sweet potatoes and yams are grown quite extensively in Georgia OUTBURSTS OF EVERETT TRUE By Condo is, shown by the fact that 7,426,131 bushels were reported as grown in the state in 1909. The area devoted to this crop is probably considerably in excess of 100,000 acres. The counties produc ing more than 100,000 bushels in 1909 were as follow's: Berrien, 126,000 bush els; Brooks, 101,000; Bulloch, 116,000; ! Ccbb, 152,000; Coffee, 154,000; Colquitt, 118.000; Decatur, 109,000; Emanuel, 129,- 000; Houston, 106,J)00; Laurens, 1^1,000; Liberty, 114,000; Montgomery, 131,000; Pierce, 129,000; Tattnall, 112.000; Wash ington, 131,000; Wayne, 125,000. Some of these counties you will ob serve are in the vicinity of the larger towns and cities of the state, where *the crop is grown somewhat on the basis of a truck crop. One would probably find it more desirable in developing the can ning industry to locate plants in sections not so close to the large consuming cen ters. This crop is so well and favora bly known in Georgia that the writer is of the opinion that a little effort in any community would induce farmers to grow an abundance of potatoes to supply the needs of a good sized can ning factory. A great variety of sweet potatoes are grown in this state, but among the better known varieties are the following: Nancy Hall, -Georgia Yam, Southern Queen and Porto TJico. The price varies from 75 cents to $1.50 per bushel, depending on the season of the year. Yields of 100 bushels per acre and upward can be secured with ordin ary farm practice. Under skillful man agement unusually large yields could easily be produced. There is an abun dance of sweet potato soil not utilized in the state which can be purchased at reasonable prices.

ASKER, President BANNER TAILORING C0^ Dept. 69 9 CHICAGO When such a house seems desirable, it may be cheap and simple in con struction, but should be convenient. It should run east and west, and is most easily arranged with a row of pens on each side of an alley way, which ex tends the entire length of the- building. The walls may be of one-inch matched siding, but phould fit very close in or der to preVent draughts. The roof should be moderately high, to provide sufficient ventilation. Quite a number of windows should be installed in order to provide sufficient sunlight to keep the pens dry and free from disease. The pens should be 7x8, or, for large sows, 8x10 feet. There are many things to be said in favor of individual houses. First of all the hogs can be scattered more, thus lessening the chances of disease spread ing through the entire herd. Secondly, fields and pastures may be utilized re gardless of their location or proximity to other farm buildings. Third, such buildings are quite inexpensive, and the number can be increased as the herd increases in size. x There are many types of these hous es. For a single sow, the A type is usually built 6x8 by 6 feet high. The rectangular type is built 7x8 feet for one sow, or 9x12 and divided into two compartments. Those with the higher roof and with provisions for opening either the sides or the roof, have so far proven the most satisfactory.

Queer Disease Causes Man’s Body to Shrink And Slowly Kills Him (Special Cable to The Journal.) LONDOCt.—Having literally shrunk to death, Albert Mills, known as "the brit tle man,” expired and was juried at Birmingham. For twenty-six years Mills has suffered from an obscure dis ease which caused a shrinkage of bodily stature, and made *-Vn the oblect of study by medical men from ait over the worW. The disease was diagnosed as osteomalacia, and its chief symptom is the disappearance . of lime from the body, leaving the bones soft and mis shapen. It became impossible for him to move, and for fourteen years he was confined to his bed. Before his illness he was 5 feet 8 inches in height, but he gradually shrank until at the time of his death he was under 4 feet high, having lost twenty inches in twenty-six years. Mills was an engraver, and the first intima tion of the disease was a stiffening of the muscles, which prevented him using his arms freely. After r. time this con- dition extended to the legs. Doctors * confessed themselves baffled. He was without pain, the increasing stiffness and constant shrinking being the evi- 0 dence of the progress of the malady.

AMERICAN STEEL & WIRE CO.’S Thoroughly ! Galvanized Wire A New and Decided Advance in the Manufacture of Wire for Woven Wire Fences r # A Galvanizing of Great Durability, Originally Developed and to be Found only in the American Steel & Wire Co.’s Fences T HE American Steel & Wire Company is the first to develop a THOROUGHLY GALVANIZED WIRE. It has a thicker coat, a quality more refined, and a deeply adhesive contact of the zinc and the steel that solidly unites the two metals, highly flexible without injury, and having a finish and weather resistance unequalled—a thoroughly galvanized wire. There are wonderful records of super- extraordinary efficiency, such an an auto tire lasting 30,000 miles; a pair of shoes, suit of clothes or a wagon showing as tonishing durability; two ships built ex actly alike, one being vastly better; or a certain piece of woven wire fencing ap parently indestructible under long years of severe trial. Years ago, in making and galvanizing stqel wire, we searched out the reason for this spasmodic super-excellence, and found it to be the chance combination of a high state of perfection, in the finest detail, of mart, methods, machinery and materials. We then mastered these fickle elements of chance by the employment of a tre mendous manufacturing organization and brought them under control for steady and continuous production. We now announce the final completion of our facilities for the extensive and permanent production of this thoroughly galvanized wire. We shall use it in the manufacture of our celebrated woven wire fences—the AMERICAN FENCE, the ELLWOOD FENCE, the ROYAL FENCE, the ANTHONY FENCE, and all our other fences. These fences are adapted for all field, farm and poultry uses, and possess superior structural advantages in quality of steel and fabric. Dealers everywhere throughout the country display these fences and will quote lowest prices. They cost no more than other fences, and considering the extra large and heavy wires used, and the exclusive use of new thorough galvanizing, makes them espe cially attractive as the best and cheapest fences.
