GROWING WHEAT IN THE SOUTH EASTERN STATES. “Bread is the staff of life.” and never was the need of it more marked than at the present time when we are en > gaged In the greatest war the world : lias ever ■ known. It Is currently re ported that over fifty million men have been taken out of productive industries, largely agricultural, by the progress of the war during the past three years. Under such conditions it is certainly not surprising that, the supplies of food, and particularly wheat, should be run ning low throughout the world. An un favorable season last year resulted tn cutting down the supplies available ma terially. For instance, in the United States one of the smallest crops raised in several years was harvested, and this at a time when our allies and the peo ples of foreign countries are looking too us as the one great granary of the world from which they could secure a sufficient arnpunt of wheat to feed their people. Another reason for the decreased supply Is due to the large area of fine -wheat-producing area over run by invading and contesting armies. Great sections of the country have be come little less than a barren waste because of war destruction and the lack of labor to till the idle acres. The problem of the United States, therefore, is acute in so far as the production of wheat la concerned. We must have an abundance of this essential cereal for the nourishment of our own people, and if the war le to be prolonged and brought to a successful issue in so far as our country is concerned, we must be in position to send vast quantities of wheat across the water to England, France and Italy. In this connection every land owner should remember the famous axiom or Napoleon, who said that an army crawls on its belly. With this motto before us, let us remember that it is the patriotic duty and privilege of ev ery southern farmer to raise an area of wheat this year sufficient to feed his own family and provide ap equal amount for use in other sections of the country or for shipment abroad. This is not a difficult task, because wheat of good quality which makes a fair yield and therefore can be raised at a profit at >2.00 a bushel can be grown on vaat areas of southern land with success. We have depended on the west so long for our bread supplies that we have become rather indifferent with refer -1 ence to the cultivation of wheat. If we are to meet the requirements of the existing situation, we mpst at leas: double the area of this cereal in tne south. To do this would not require the planting of more than a few acres on every farm, and as we now have a long time in which to prepare the land and seed the wheat crop, let us remem ber to set aside the land needed, get It ready in good time, fertilize and plant with the utmost care, and so demon strate to the nation as a whole our de sire to serve acceptably in the pres ent emergency. There are some soils, of course, which I are- not well adapted for the cultivation of wheat, and in those sections farmers I should not undertake Its growth on an extensive scale. Wherever the Decatur clay loam, the Hagterstown loam and the Conasauga silt loam occurs wheat can be grown at a profit. In the great ■Piedmont area of the southeastern states or the red clay belt, wheat can be grown successfully. It can also be raised on the sandy loamy soils of the northern part of the coastal plains area. There is an abundance of soil of good quality, therefore, available on which ro cultivate wheat to advantage. Every one knows that after the wheat is har vested the land may be devoted to a second crop of hay from legumes. Even corn or cotton can be planted after wheat in some sections. Os course, cot ton could only be used in those areas which the weevil has not yet invaded. In cultivating wheat the use of fer tilizers will be found advisable. There are certain elements essential to *he proper development of this crop and in which practically all the soils in the southeastern states are more or less de ficient. One of these which can be ob tained in reasonable quantities and at a cost which will justify its use, is acid phosphate. We advise the general application of 250 to 300 pounds per acre of this material. It should be put down at the time the wheat is seeded. It should be well mixed with the sol and not broadcasted on top of the land. At the time of planting the wheat ft is gen erally advisable to use some nitrogen. We suggest from 100 to 200 pounds of cotton seed meal. 100 pounds of nitrate of soda or 75 to 100 pounds of sulphate of ammonia. One-half of these amounts may be put on with the acid phosphate ! in the fall and the balance applied in the spring. The early application of nitrogenous fertilizers in the spring seems to give the best results according to our experience and observation. We would say that in the southern half of the territory in question the nitrogen should be put on from the 15th of Feb ruary to the Ist of March; and in the northern part from the Ist to the 15th of March. In growing wheat it is generally de sirable to enrich the land with as much humus as possible. If the crop can be grown after cowpeas or velvet beans or where supplies of green or yard manures have been turned under, it will be an advantage. In the growth of wheat it appears that two tons of the crushed raw lime rock applied once say in three or four years will oe found helpful on many soils. As to the rota tion of crops to practice, much depends |on circumstances and conditions. Ordi narily wheat may be sown after cot ' ton. This will be advantageous practice ) to follow in many parts of the south [ eastern states where the weevil has j proven destructive, thereby necessitat ing the early plowing under of the cot ton stalks. After the wheat has been harvested, cowpeas or soy beans, as al ready indicated, may be grown either for grain or cut for hay. The third year corn and velvet beans can be plant ed on the land and then back to coftWt As a matter of fact, some rotation of i this kind will be essential in the south * now for several reasons. First of all, Iwe must diversify our practice, and second in fighting the weevil, changing the land on which cotton is cultivated each year becomes essential. This rota -1 tion applies probably better to the southern section of the wheat-growing territory than to the northern section. In the latter part of the cotton belt crimson clover can often be planted after the cotton. Corn may follow the i next year with cowpeas between the rows. For the third year plant wheat after the corn, followed by cowpeas and rye to be turned under In the spring. Before wheat is planted it is very important that it be treated for smut. This is easily accomplished. Take for instance, one gallon of formaldehyde and dilute it to forty or fifty gallons with water. Next run the wheat through a fanning mill to thoroughly clean it and remove therefrom the smut balls as completely as posible. Then spread a tarpaulin on the floor or a tight board floor will answed very well without a cover. Make up the solution as indicat ed and sprinkle at the rate of one gal lon to each bushel of wheat. An or dinary sprinkling pot may be used for this purpose. Stir the grain thorough ly while it is sprinkled so as to be sure to get every grain wet. Cover with can vas or other heavy material and allow to stand for five hours. At the end of this period take off the cover and stir until sufficiently dry for seeding. It Is very important that care be taken to have the solution of formaldehyde in ex actly the right strength or else this treatment will not prove so effective as it otherwise should. In keeping grain for food, 30 to 40 bushels in a compara tively tight bin or box may be treated with a pound of carbon bisulphide. The liquid should be placed in a shallow ves sel on top of the grain and the box covered as tight as possible. The liquid vaporizes and the fumes being heavier than te air, penetrate the grain and destroy the weevils. The offensive odor will disappear in a little while if the, grain is exposed to the air. What should be sown as early as pos- I sible to avoid damage by the Hessian fly, hence it will generally be necessary to wait until the ocurrence of the first frost planting. In the northern part of the cotton belt seeding about October 15 has been found most satisfactory: in the middle part and coastal plains area, seeding frpm November 1 to 15 gener ally give the best results. The best method of planting is wtih the grain, drill which distributes the seed in rows 6 to 8 inches apart and covers them uni- j formly, and enables the fertilizer to be I put down satisfactorily at the same time. Four to five pecks of seed should | be enough to use per acre. Among the: best varieties to plant are the Mediter-, ranean, Australian Red. D<ttz, Mam moth Red, Fulcaster, Fultz and Geor gia Red. • * • RAISING INDIGO IN THE SOUTH. M. R., Millbrook, Ala., writes: 1 would like some information in regard to the raising of Indigo. I have been told that it could be raised successfully here. Can you give me any information regarding the cultivation of the crop? Indigo is chiefly the product of Indi gofera. This species is supposed to have originated in the Presidency of Bombay in the British Isles. The West Indian, or “Indigo Anil,” has also been culti vated to some extent in the south. This plant was supposedly introduced into South Carolina in 1742 from the West Indies. It was soon found that com mercial indigo could be made. As a re sult the British government offered a bounty for its cultivation. In 1775 the production was more than one million pounds of indigo. The Revolutionary war checked the industry and the ris ing Importance of the cotton crop final ly drove the cultivation of indigo to the wall. While indigofera tinctoria is per ennial it is best o plant it each year. It gives from two to four cuttings the first year. ‘From this will be seen that indigo can be cultivated successfully in the south. It prefers a rich friable soil, well watered but not too wet. The seeds should be sown in drills about two feet apart and the plants are cut when be ginning to flower. A TONIC RATION FOR A HOG. • (1. C. V., Salter, Ala., Writes: 1 have a ahoat one year old that never has eaten heartily and has grown but little. Would yon advise knocking him in the head? 1 also have two pigs two months old that I want to make bi ghogs by Christ mas. How would yon feed aud. care for them? Sometimes a runt pig is born which never does amount to anything much and, therefore, it Is not a bad policy when Rhis seems to be the case to dis pose of tiie animal as promptly as pos sible. On the other hand, pigs which are stunted sometimes owe this condi tion to infestation by parasites, such as lung worms and intestinal worms. When this proves to be the case medical treat ment will sometimes prove of value, and since it costs but little if is often worth while to give the animal a chance, especially in this day of high-priced foods and a keen demand, for meat an imals. For instance, a dram of turpen tine given in a quart of milk for two or three days in succession, then followed by a good purgative, such as Epsom salts, will often prove very beneficial in ridding the system of intestinal worms and really giving an animal a chance to grow off vigorously if satisfactory rations are provided. • Lung worms, of course, are difficult to treat, and if they have become well established it is generally best to fat ten the animal as soon as possible.

International Shoe Company J Makers :: St. Louis Probably all you can do in the case of ' lung infestation is to place the animal in a tent and fumigate by burning sul phur on coals. The attendant must keep his head on a level with that of the an imal being treated, and when he can no longer stand the fumes admit fresh air. This treatment should be repeated for several days. Where one wants to grow out hogs a liberal ration is necessary. Provide as much range as possible and let it in clude some green feed. Feed a slop made of milk and shorts and kitchen refuse, provided it contains no glass or soap powders.’ Plant a patch of rape early in February and then provide as much grazing as possible, planting out small areas of early and late maturing cowpeas, soy beans, peanuts, sweet pota toes and velvet beans. It will not be necessary to feed much corn, but some will no doubt be found helpful. A pound or two a day throughout the growing season can be fed with benefit and probably profit as well. WHAT A SOUTH GEORGIA DAIRY MAN WANTS TO KNOW. W. M. H., Valdosta, Ga., writes. Will yon knidly figure out for me the best milk ration ont of the following: Japanese en silage cane, shorts, ground velvet beans, cottonseed meal and ground corn and cobs. What cheaper feed can be substituted for shorts? If situated as you are and with the feeds in hand mentioned in your letter, we would give a herd of dairy cows all the Japanese cane silage they will eat up clean each day. This will probably amount to from thirty to forty pounds, depending on the size of your cows. Over feeding with silage is objectionable, but there is not much danger of doing this if the cattle are fed regularly. There is no better substitute for grass than silage and there is no cheaper roughage on which to carry the cattle through the winter. In choosing concentrates we would be governed almost exclusively by the rela tive cost of the same. Cotton seed meal furnishes portein in a cheaper form than velvet beans or shorts. Therefore, we would give preference to it. When vel vet beans cost about >20.00 to >25.00 a ton, we think one can afford to pay from $37.00 to >45.00 for a high-grade of cotton seed meal. While cottonseed meal can be fed as the sole concentrate to cows, we do not think it practical to handle velvet beans in this manner. In other words, we think velvet beans and corn and cob rheal mixed in equal pro portions will make a better grain ration for cows than either one of these con centrates fed separately. If one has vel vet beans and corn on hand, they should feed this ration in preference to the pur chased one. Cotton seed meal should be fed at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds per head per day In two equal proportions, and about 5 to 10 pound? of a mixture of equal parts of velvet beans and corn and cob meal. HOW TO CARE FOR MILK BOTTLES. J. H., Milledgeville, Ga.. writes: I would like information in regard to the care of milk bottles. It is very important that milk bot tles be carefully sterilized after they have been used. In order to avoid setting the milk on the bottles or cook ing it thereon, they should be rinsed out carefully in cold water as soofl as the milk has been emptied out of them. They should then be washed out with lukewarm water and later with very warm water. Some sal soda or other satisfactory cleansing material should be used. A bottle brush is essential as you cannot reach the inside of the bot tle properly save with some such instru ment. Cloths should of course be avoided. A bottle brush can be scalded out with hot water and kept in a thor oughly sanitary condition at all times. As soon as the bottles have been washed out with hot water they should be rinsed with boiling water. They should then be put in the sterilizing oven. This may be a simple affair and not very costly. Naturally the bottles should be heated up very gradually as they are of thick heavy glass. They should re main in the sterilizing ox«n for a con siderable length of time. Bottles treat ed as indicated can be kept in an ideal condition as to Vheir sanitary character. Their period of service will also be greatly extended if handled in the man ner indicated. • • • CURING AN ANIMAL OF DEPRAVED APPETITE. K. O. S., Fitzgerald, Ga.. writea: I have a mule about six years old that is in bad condition. I have to keep her in the stall to keep her from eating dirt. I have been feeding her corn and fodder and peavine hay, nut she doesn't eat enough edrn to keep in good order. Please tell me what to do tor her. Your mule is suffering from some sort of indigestion as shown by the tendency to develop a depraved appetite. Indigestion may be due to a number of things, such as poor feed and an im properly balanced ration, bad teeth, or irregular feeding. The first thing to do is to examine the food and see that it Is of first-class quality and free from moulds and dust. Then look after the teeth and see if they are in a condition to enable the animal to masticate the food properly. Provide an ample and abundant water supply. A good diges tive tonic to use for an animal in such a condition as yours would be a mixture of glanbers salts, 2 pounds, common salt, 1 pound, baking soda, 1-2 pound, giving a heaping teaspoonful of this in each feed. The Sec ur ity Os Modern Civilization BY BISHOF W. ▲. OANDLEB. Some thirty years ago Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, who was then the Secre tary of State of the United States, made a notable address at Yale university, which is of striking interest and signi ficance today. In the course of ’his masterly speech, the great secretary adverted to address es of Bismarck and Von Moltke which had just been delivered in the German Reichstag pending the debate on the army bill, in which addresses it was contended that the safety of Europe was entirely dependent upon “brute force.” Mr. Bayard poured scorn upon such a sentiment, exclaiming, “Is that the end of civilization?” Proceeding with his condemnation of the militarism of Bismarck and Von Moltke, he said: "Is there nothing else than armies that can govern mankind? Is this the civilization which is an nounced to us by the press from Ger many tonight? May heaven foriiid? Tt can not be that brute force of military power is to be the security of any peo ple or the guardian of any civilization which is to progress under the rule of Christ.'’ Upon reading these words, uttered ’n January, 1887. the first impulse is to say Mr. Bayard was in error and Bis marck and Von Moltke were more prac tical and wise than he., But second thought will show the contrary. The rulers of the German Empire have pursued the programme of force—the plans of militarism—during all the thir ty years which have elapsed since 1887. If brute force be the security of na tions, Germany ought to be safe. A scheme was perfected to conquer the world, and every minutest provision for the success of the scheme was made with scientific precision. But the pro grame of force has not been successful, and greater failure for it is at hand. Greater force has been aroused against Teutonic force, and the war has now be come a war against war. Unless mankind is incapable of learn ing the lesson of this »wful conflict; un less the love of battle is an ineradica ble instinct of human nature. w T e may reasonably hope that the nations will now see that war is a futile and false means for settling international dis putes. Modern science has discovered agents and modern invention has devised in struments of almost infinite power. One nation armed with these devices can protract through weary and wasteful years a conflict with many nations. This indeed is what the German militarists have done and are doing. They have combined savagery and science in a form almost invincible. And behold the horri ble results! Millions of precious lives have been sacrificed on the altar of brute force! Vast expenditures have been made, and must yet be made again, which stagger the mind to conceive or compute! The programme of force is a monstrous failure. By such a programme civilization can nqt be secured; it de stroys civilization. The burdens which it imposes in a time of peace are intol erable, and in this time of war they are nothing less than hideous. But we can not permit ourselves to be deluded by the pipe-dreams of a puerile pacifism. Brute force on its rampage must be put down by force in order to end forever its brutal reign. A| true lover of peace, who has sense enough to pereceive the obvious, must give his support to this war against war. But when peace comes, men must not be deceived by the notion that peace will be enduring without anything else Is accomplished than the defeat of Ger man militarism. That result will be a very great achievement, and it is well worth fighting for. But the peace fol lowing the war will be nothing better than a protracted armistice if the world does not recognize and submit to the reign of righteousness. Sclnce will con tinue in the future, as in the .past, to discover agents of deadly destructive ness and Immeasurable power, and these agents will be employed by selfishness in schemes of aggression unless the na tions are purged of unholy greed and domineering ambitions. It must be so in the very nature of the case. To make an end of war forever, prep aration for a righteous peace must be made and made speedily. And this means that the majority of the moral law must be enthroned in the hearts of the na tions. Men must become moral enough to restrain them from the immoral use of power. Notwithstanding the prostrat ing effects of this terrible war. the* power of mankind is going to increase more and more. Titanic forces of na ture, not yet known or only partially known, will be brought into subjection to mankind, and with the augmenting of power will come the temptation to use it unlawfully. The outcome of such a process will be other and more awful wars Unless the human race becomes more moral and religious. When power tutruns piety the most dreadful conse- ; juences always follow. Such has been j the case in the past, and such will be the case in the future. The security of modern civilization cannot rest on one great triumph of force over force. The only fortifica tions for its defense that will assure its peaceful perpetuation must be thrown up in the human heart. By this means alone can the superhuman forces, which the future will uncover, be held' back from belligerency and made benevolent. Nor can civilization be safeguarded by a feeble morality of secularism. Eth ical principles must be enforced by the sanctions of religion and executed in the strength of religious motives if they are to avail anything for the pacifica tion of the world. And we must not forget that every ’ religion yields its own system of ethics. ' begotten in its own image and likeness. The ethics of Buddhism and the ethics j of Mohammedanism differ greatly, and they are immeasurably below the ethics of Christianity. A Buddhist world is not possible. A Mohammendan world • is unthinkable. The world must be a Christian world ■ if It is to be a peaceful world. Men j may cry "Peace! Peace!” but there will ' be no peace except under the reign of . the Prince of Peace. A secularized education and a degener. ■ ate theology in Germany have yielded the ethics of Treitschke and his disci- ■ pies and by consequence the world is ' now on fire. For a time we may extinguish the I flames with fire engines of war, over-1 coming force with force, and that we must do as speedily and effectually as ! possible. But if no more than that is . done, the flames will flare up again, and another generation will have to re peat the painful process. To arrest a fire in a crowded city dynamite must sometimes be used, and a work of de struction done, which under other cir-1 cumstances would be criminal. When j the conflagration is checked, the ground i must be cleared of debris and strong foundation laid for the peaceful habita- j tions of men. The world needs now to begin prepar ing for permanent peace by turning to God. Godlessness is too inflammable to be retained in the earth. Religion is required as the security of civilization: it only is fireproof. The righteousness which is by faith in Jesus Christ alone is adeauate to restrain the fierce passions of mankind and cause a "peaceful earth to slumber lapt in universal law.” IWarranfacf so 0/r« ft Gombaulfs I Caustic Balsam I Has Imitators But No Compititors. 1 A Safe, Speedy and Positive Cure for B Curb, Splint Sweeny, Capped Hock, Strained Tendona, Founder, Wind Puffs, and all lamenou from Spavia, 8 Ringbone and other bony turnon.
