Secure Your Cotton Seed Now
The boll weevil has invaded a very
j considerable area of Georgia, and our
farmers are face to face with the men
ace which its presence brings to every
land owner. Os all the things which
can be done to lessen its damage, there
is nothing more important than that of
! securing an early, rapid fruiting, large
’ boiled variety of cotton. Hence the
I planting of seed which fulfills these
requirentpnts becomes a matter almost
I or self-preservation in so far as the iu-
I terest of the farmer is concerned. It
would seem appropriate, therefore, to
offer some si&gestions as to the Type
and character of cotton which should be
selected for planting next year, and to
I advise and urge upon the grower the
I importance and necessitj- of securing a
I good strain of seed.
In the first place, earliness is the
most important single factor to be con-
I sidered. and it is surprising the degree
I of difference which exists between va-
I rieties of cotton in this respect. The
' writer knows fboin experience that th®re
I are many varieties which been cul
tivated In the college demonstration
I field for several years past which
i would be utterly destroyed by the boll
’ weevil, whereas, other varieties might
easily mature the equivalent of a crop
: of a thousand to fifteen hundred founds
' of seed cotton before the weevil damage
i would become serious. Therefore, earli
ness is a most important point to em
phasize. but it should not be consider
|ed to the exclusion of all other de
sirable points.
Next to earliness would come uni
formity; -that is. plants should be as
nearly as possible of the same size and
general character and rate of growth
and development so that they will ma
ture their crop about the same time.
In other words, there must be trueness
to type.
In selecting a variety of cotton adap
tability is an important matter, as some
varieties are better 'adapted foj- growth
in one section than another, hence it
is important to secure a variety which
has been grown for a sufficient length
of time in a community to establish its
serviceability beyond the question oi
doubt. Then, of course, any variety
selected should be free of disease and
it should~also be strongly resistant to
disease. Certain varieties, as Coving
ton's Toole, are strongly resistant to the
wilt disease. This variety is also an
early one and well adapted for growth
in south Georgia. It is one of those
varieties which will apparently help
the farmer meet the boll weevil inva
sion in that section of the state with
a considerable degree of success. It
should be remembered, however, that
there are various strains of this varie
ty on the market and some of them
are undoubtedly superior to others.
Seed should not be bought at random
but should only be purchased from re
liable parties who have grown it under
proper methods of management and are
in postion to guarantee its character.
Another disease which attacks cotton
in Georgia is anthracnose, and it has
proven very destructive in many in
stances. Some varieties are much more
subject to it than others. Only varie
ties should be selected for planting un
der boll weevil conditions, therefore,
with strong resistance to anthracnose
as well as to the wilt disease.
In selecting a variety of cotton it
will be found that earliness can be se
cured along with a high percentage of
lint. This is a very important matter
because It has been demonstrated that
tn one case l,('0o pounds of seed will
make a bale of cotton, while in other
instances 1.500 to 1.600 pouncts will be
required. Naturally, when growing cot
ton under the disadvantages which the
boll weevil invasion imposes only varie
ties which yield a high percentage of
lint should be selected. It is very de
sirable also that the lint be uniform.
This can be easily ascertained by comb
ing out the lint on the seed selected
from different parts of the plant and
irom different plants. When the lint
is combed out on the seed it should not
present the appearance more or less of
a butterfly, but should show a unifbrm
length or staple. A great deal of short
lint ou one end of the seed means that
the cotton will grade on the basis of
the short lint. Naturally, lint of this
character is not a profitable kind for
| the trill owner to purchase or the
farmer to grow. Therefore, select va
rieties from which this undesirable
characteristic has been eliminated, to a
high degree. It is very important also
that the lint be of good qualify; that is.
not only of uniform length but of good
tensile strength. There is a great dif
ference in varieties in this respect, lit
tle as it may be suspected by those
■ who have not studied the question care
' fully.
• Tn selecting for earliness it is also
'desirable that varieties be chosen the

seed of which shows a high percentage
of oil ami nitrogen. A wide variation
is evidenced in this respect, amounting
to five to ten gallons per ton with dif
ferent varieties. It would seem that a
strain of cotton can be grown which
will average five gallons higher in oil
{yield than many which are now culti
| ated. Why grow an inferior strain of
’seed when it is possible to grow a su
perior one under the same identical con
ditions? Seed which contains five gal
lon!' more of oil per ton and a higher
percentage of nitrogen than the average
is certainly more valuable for manufac
turing purposes, and the farmer who
grov s selected seed will gain an ad
vantage thereby whenever this fact be
comes known. There are a few varie
ties of cotton now grown more or less
extensively in . Georgia which show a
.desirable degree of earliness and have
associated with them the various char
acteristics mentioned above. It is to
the interest of the land owner, the seed
buyer and the manufacturer that these
strains be employed extensively in the
.immediate future. There is no one
thing more likely to insure the cotton
crop of the state to a reasonable degree
against boll weevil damage than that
of planting carefully selected, eaHy
maturing varieties of cotton.

MEETING THE BOLL WEEVIL IN
VASION.
W. G. 8., Bollngbroke, Ga., writes: The
bull weevil has l>eeu found ou the adjoining
plantation to mine. For years I have been
devoting my energies to other crops beside
cotton, but tlie only crop I could count on
selling was cotton. Would you advise me to
»t< p cotton entirely aud substitute peanuts?
This is essentially a cotton country a* we
generally have very little rain when cotton
needs it. I tried peanuts one year, but
found them almost impossible to get up. My
soil is good red clay, which makes the pea
nuts hard to gather. Any precautions I
might take to get ahead of the weevil would
tie almost usi-iess as the adjoining la nils
are rented out to shifting negro farmers,
and their negligence would render my care
useless.
If there are onlj’ a very few weevils
in your neighborhood and they have not
invaded your county until this fall it
is not likely that the weevil will do
serious damage to cotton in your sec
tion next year. Under these conditions
you can afford to grow a fair amount
of cotton, but to depend on cotton ex
clusively would be a very great mis
take. After next year you will be per
forced to diversify materially ahd grow
other crops or the weevil when it be
comes well established will practically
destroy your cotton.
It is important, of course, that cot
ton stalks be destroyed by plowing
them under to a depth of about four
inches as soon as practicable. This is
one of the best things which can be
done to mitigate weevil damage. You
should plant only early maturing varie
ties of cotton, riant as early as pos
sible and fertilize quite freely, espe
cially with phosphoric acid and culti
vate shallow so as to force develop
ment and maturity as quickly as pos
sible. Next year we would not reduce
the acreage materially but the year
following cut down to eight to ten acres
to the plow.
Peanuts can. of course, be grow,n to
some advantage In your section ot
Georgia, provided the oil mills will take
them from you at a price of 50 cents
and upward per bushel. In case you
can not dispose of them to oil mills
to advantage you can, of course, graze
to hogs. The hogs should be finished,
however, on corn. This industry will
be greatly benefited by the establish
ment of packing plants in Georgia.
There should be no difficulty in find
ing a /remunerative market for proper
ly finished hogs.
No doubt you can raise live stock to
advantage. If you build a silo you can
provide plenty of green food to use as
a substitute for grass at certain sea
sons of the year, especially in the win
ter. Then by growing an increased
area of peanuts, velvet beans and cow
peas, you can provide a good part of
the grain needed and all of the neces
sary at a reasonable cost.
You should emphasize the cultivation
of winter oats ahd other cereals. These
can be planted out in the open furrows
in your cotton fields after the stalks
have been plowed under.
In planting peanuts It Is best to put
them in w’ith a drill. It requires about
two bushels of Spanish peanuts per
acre.
EARLY VARIETIES OE COTTON.
_\l. F. 8., Madison. G«., writes: What
early varieties of cotton do you recom
mend for planting to get ahead of the boll
weevil?
Among the varieties of cotton we
would suggest as desirable for growth
in your section of the state at the
present time would be College No. 1,
Sunbeam, Cleveland, Hooper’s. Cald
well. Toole, Cook. Poulnot and Dixie. We
think we would favor the selection of
these varieties in the order named. There
is only a very small amount of- seed
I of College No. 1 available at the pres
fent time and you may have great diffl-
Iculty in securing any seed of this varie
ty. You should be able to secure well
selected strains of Sunbeam and Cleve
land, however, without serious difficul
ty, We believe these varieties will be
found as satisfactory for growth in
. orgar. county under boll weevil condi
tions as any which can be secured.
HANDLING THE SWEET POTATO
. CROP?
G. F. E., writes: We would like to know
the best variety of sweet potatoes to plant,
the time to plant nnd the time to harvest.
We would nlso like Information in regard
to fertilization to secure the beat results?
E. W. 8.. Madison. Ga.. writes: fan lime
he used to advantage on any land for bet
ter crops? What kind should I use? I have
fairly good land on which I cannot get or
maintain a stand, and I have concluded that
it is sour. ITdw should the lime lie applied?
Among the best varieties of sweet po
tato to plant in Georgia are the follow
; ing: Nancy Hall, Porto Rico and thi
' Triumph. The Nancy Hall is an elipti
cal tuber with a light yellow skin and a
deep yellow flesh. It is a good keeper
and a moderate producer. It also ma
tures early. The Porto Rico is a shapely
potato and a good ylelder with a pink
1 tlkin. The flesh is a golden color and if
n good seller on that account. The Tri
umph has a rather dirty white skin with
ertamy white flesh.
Os course there are innumerable other
| varieties, but a careful study and re
view of the situation leads us to believe
that we can recommend these as among
the best varieties for general cultiva
tion. Os course everyone interested in
growing sweet potatoes can bed theit
own plants if they care to do so. Plant
ing should be done as soon as danger oi
frost is passed for early crops. Th«
TROOPS IISEO TO EJECT
FAMILIES OE STRIKERS
(South Carolina Troops Sent
to Aid Cotton Mill Com
pany at Anderson
-
i ANDERSON, 8. C„ Nov. 12— Two
I companies of state guardsmen arrived
here Saturday and are expected later
to aid in serving writs of ejectments
against five families of striking cotton
1 mill employes who have been living in
1 cottages owned by the mil) company.
Sheriff Ashley yesterday notified Gov
ernor Manning by telegraph that lie
would not serve the writs until the af
fected families had had time to find
other places to live. Three more com
panies of guardsmen are expected to
arrive later today.
Soon after the guardsmen arrived ar
rangements were made to quarter them
in a warehouse of the Equinox mills and
pending preparation of quarters no ac
! tion was taken on the writs. No un-
I toward incident attended arrival of the
troops but how service of the writs
I backed by military power would be re
ceived by the strikers was problemati
cal at the tim’e the troops were' going
into quarters.
Many of the mill hands struck Aug
ust 31 when a demand for 10 per cent
increase in wages was demanded. Prac
tically- all of them reside in cottages
owned by the company but only five
ejectment writs have been issued.
Denies Chihuahua City
Is to Be Evacuated
EL PASO. Nov. 10.—A special arrived
today in Juarez with approximately 600
Carranza troops on board. American
army officers believed this to be the be
ginning of the evacuation of Chihuahua
City by General Trevino.
General Francisco Gonzales, in Juarez,
declared the troops were being sent
north so-. duty in western Chihuahua. He
denied Chihuahua City was to be evacu
ated.
time will therefore vary with the loca
tion. Sweet potatoes for a late orop
may be put out in some sections of
Georgia as late as the first of July.
The writer has had wonderful success
in growing sweet potatoes after Irish
potatoes, thereby making two crops on
the same land with one application of
commercial fertilizers. The potatoes
should as a rule be planted in four-foot
rows with the plants eighteen inches
apart in the row. This crop should be
liberally fertilized with commercial
plant food. Potash is recommended un
der normal conditions, but it cannot be
secured at present. A good mixtures
would be a formula consisting of 2 to 3
per cent nitrogen, 6 to 8 per cent phos
phoric acid and 5 to 8 per cent potash.
Three hundred to a thousand pounds per
acre should be applied, depending on the
natural fertility of the land. Sweet po
tatoes should not be harvested until
matured. This is easily determined by
breaking a potato and exposing it to the
light for a few minutes. If the exposed
part turns dry quickly it is mature. This
is a crop which should not be left in the
soil after maturity. Harvesting should
be done at the right time to secure the
best results.

TRANSPLANTING TREES.
W. E. 8., Glenwood, Ga., writes: In
transplanting fruit and pecan trees, is lt>
advisalbe to set them tne same longitude
they originally were in the nursery? How
does the Pabst pecan rank in commercial
value compared with jome of the other lead
ing varieties ? ,
We do not think that you need worry
In transplanting fruit and pecan trees
to try and set them with the slant or
direction they possessed when originally
growing in the nursery. We do. not
pay an}" attention to matters of this
kind here at the college and we have had
good success In establishing and plant
ing out various kinds of shade and or
namental trees.
The Pabst pecan, according to our ex
perience and observation, would not be
placed In the first class. Tn our opinion,
and we have made very careful observa
tions throughout the state, the Man
tura, Rome, Money-Maker, Carman, Cur
tis, Van Deman, Teche and Frotscher
are among the best varieties of .pecans
adapted to the mountainous sections of
North Georgia The Stuart, Money-Mak
er, Carman, Pabst and Van Deman are
best suited to Middle Georgia: and the
Stuart, Curtis, Bradley, President.
Pabst, Allex, Success, Teche and Frots

THE ANALYSES OF VELVET BEANS.
J. XV. n„ I'lnehnrst, Ga., writes: I
would like to know the analysis of speckled
velvet beans. I want to feed them to my
hogs, cows and mules.
Velvet beans without the hulls con
taining about 21.8 per cent of protein.
5.6 per cent fat, 2.4 per cent fibre, 51.11
per cent carbohydrates, 1 per cent phos
phoric acid and 1.70 per cent of potash.
The protein mentioned above is equiv
alent to 3.49 'per cent of nitrogen ana
It will be seen that a ton of beans with
out the hulls contains about 20 pounds
of phosphoric acid and 34 pounds of
potash. They contain about as much
protein as cowpeas and beans and a lit
tle less of this- element probably than
peanuts ground with the hulls. Where
velvet beans and hulls are ground to
gether the protein content falls to 16.5
per cent, the fat to 4.68 per cent, the
fibre increases to 10.32 per cent and the
carbohydrate to 54.9 per cent. The total
I phosphoric acid is reduced to .8 per
I cent and the potash becomes 1.72 per
1 cent. The nitrogen equivalent of the
■ protein content is 2.64 per cent. A ton
of beans ground with the hulls con
tains 56.8 per cent nitrogen, 16 per cent
phosphoric acid and 34.4 per cent pot
ash. Velvet beans, either ground with
or without the hulls, should of course be
fed along with corn and other food
stuffs produced on the farm. If you
have a limited amount of velvet beans
may reduce the amount fed to one
third of the total grain ration, in creas
ing the grain, say to two-thirds.

WILLCOX STUBBORNLY
REFOSES TO CONCEDE
WILSON'S ELECTION
Recalls How California Wav-
ered ea Month Between
Roosevelt and Wilson in
1912 and Went to Roosevelt
NEW YORK, Nov. 11. —A statement
showing liie fluctuation of the lead be
tween President Wilson and Colonel
Roosevelt in California in 1912 from
day to day for a montn after election
and how the state finally went in favor
of Roosevelt after Wilson was first
credited with winning was issued here
today by Chairman William K. Willcox,
of the Republican national committee,
to “show precisely why the Republican
national committee cannot, at this time,
concede tiie election to Mr. Wilson and
must await the official count in this
and other states/'
“The record shows," Mr. Willcox's
statement read, “that Mr. Wilson was
first in the lead; that subsequently this
lead was taken by Colonel Roosevelt and
that finally the delegation to the elec
toral college from California was divid
ed, two electors being for Ms. Wiison
and eleven for Colonel Roosevelt.
“The files of the San Francisco Chron
icle show the following:
“On Wednesday, November 6, the day
after election in 1912, the Chronicle said
the indications were that Mr. Wilson
had a safe plurality over Colonel Roose
velt. The Democratic state chairman
claimed the state by 20,000.
WILSON LED NOV. 7.
"On November 7, the Chronicle said
that a storm had delayed reports and
that no figures Were available from four
I counties. Returns from 3.668 precincts
out of 4,372 gave Mr. Wilson a lead of
6,237.
“On November 8 the Associated Press
announced that Colonel Roosevelt was
in the lead by 130 votes. Six changes
had been made in the vote from Los
Angeles in the previous twelve hours,
each change increasing the lead of Col
onel Roosevelt. With three Los Angeles
precincts out and 136 precincts elsewhere
in the state out. the Wilson vote stood
at 280,125 and the Roosevelt vote at
280,255. t
“The collapse of the Wilson plurality
was due to the way election figures in
Los Angeles had been compiled. The
Democratic county chairman placed the
Roosevelt majority in that county at
about 13,000. .
“The clerk of the county was appeoled
to by j olitical leaders for an accurate
acount. He made a semi-official tabula
tion of the returns, which showed start
ling discrepancies from the results ob
tained unofficially by political headquar
ters and newspapers. ‘ Much Os the dis
crepancy was due to the scratching of
Wallace, who headed the Progressive
electors.
“On November 9 returns compiled
from 4,293 precincts out of 4.372 gave
Colonel Roosevelt 281,497 and Mr. Wil
son 280,845.
ROOSEVELT TOOK LEAD.
“On November 13 returns from all but
five out of 4,372 precincts gave Colonel
Roosevelt the state by 24 votes.
“On November 17 it was announced
that Secretary df State Jordan went to
Los Angeles, to take personal charge of
the count.
“On November 24 it was announced
that the district court of appeals in Los
Angeles had thrown out one precinct
which had given Colonel Roosevelt a
majority of 104.
“On December 4, the Chronicle an
nounced that, if there were no more
changes due to court decisions and to
the auditing by the seertary of state,
there would be, according to the official
count, two Democratic electors and JI
Progressives.
“A change of ten votes would elect
another Democrat, It was said.”
Mr. Willcox had a conference with
Charles E. Hughes today during which
the situation was discussed. No an
nouncement came from Mr. Hughes in
regard to his own plans. Mr. Willcox
said afterward that he and, he thought,
Mr. Hughes, would remain here, until
the first of next week. H said he did
not expect official counts from the doubt
ful states to begin coming In before
•then, and that it» would be more than a
week at least before they were complete.
He would not venture a guess on how
much longer than that It might take.
They’re Fining Men in
London Now for Fearing
Dangerous Machinery
BY MABY BOYLE O’REILLY.
LONDON, Nov. 11.—Fined for fearing
a dangerous machine! Standards of
blood and iron now dominate English
trades. When war was declared all la
bor laws were swept aside: today the
unprotected workman may be cited into
the munitions courts for considering his
own safety.
John Smith, eigtheen, a maker of mu
nitions, appeared before the London trib
unal indicted for refusing to take
charge of an extra machine. The youth
testified that the machine was known to
