WHEAT CLUBS FUR GEORGIA Every one is f.atr.lliar with the fa mous boys’ and girls* clubs of Georgia, and those who understand the paycho logical effect flowing out of the work ; performed by these young people are proud of the fact that the club move ment started in Georgia. The effect of the corn clubs ia generally recognised and Is shown by the fact that our yield of this important cereal has steadily in creased for some years past. The suc cess attending the pig and poultry clubs and the canning clubs is too w-ell known to call for a detailed explanation of I the Importance or merit of the work ac ’ complished In this hour of the nation's trial and stress it is not surprising, therefore, that it seems appropriate to launch what are to be known as the Georgia Wheat clubs for the purjiosc of in ducing thousands of Georgia boys to plant an acre or more of this important j cereal which is now destined to exert a determining influence on the outcome of i the war. XV heat from time immemorial [ has been the chief bread food of man. It is not extensively gnown in any part of Europe, and in many of the Allied * countries is practically unknown. Con ditions have been such that part of the land in these countries could not be suc cessfully cultivated. Unfavorable sea sons have followed in succession, and hence the supply of wheat produced i has been below the minimum require ment for the proper nourishment of the j people of England. France and Italy. In America we have been neglecting wheat culture as well with the result that there has been a decline in per capita production for many years past. In 18S0 we were producing about 8.5 bushels per capita. This year we will produce less than six bushels. Since the allied countries must look to us for a part of their wheat supplies, it is necessary that we increase production this year if vze feed ourselves and the countries de<>endent upon us. The time has arrived, therefore, when every means should be resorted to which will increase the cultivation of wheat, and since the 1 boys and girls have done such effec j tive work with corn, cotton and truck crops, there is no reason why if their effort is properly enlisted in wheat pro duction an increase in this important ce real should not be obtained, not only in Georgia but all of the states of the southeast. / In the first place, /boys and girls should recognize that in the growing of wheat they are performing a dis tinctly patriotic service, yet they arc not working without the hope of a fine fi nancial reward. It has been pretty well established, for Instance, that it costs about 79 cents to grow a bushel of wheat, but as the government guaran teed a price of $2 a bushel for 1918. there is every reason to expect a profit of around lo” per cent. Two dollars would have been considered a phenome nal price for wheat a few years ago. and it is s very substantial price now. There is no reason why from twenty to twenty-five bushels should not be grown per acre on land which has been proper ly selected, prepared and fertilized. This I would make a return of S4O to SSO per acre on land which will probably other-, wise remain ’die. Besides that, a most, essential cereal would be produced, one, > in fact, which we must have if the j war is to be brought to a successful con clusion. Every American, of course, be-; lieves that Old Glory will triumph, butj In order that this may be brought about 1 as quickly as possible, we must remem bfcr that there are certain things which , we. as individuals, are specifically re-! sponsible for. and one of these is the. extensive cultivation of wheat. Georgia boys who wish to become ( members of the wheat-growing clubs, should remember that the’r enrollment | must be sent in to their county agent before December 1. They should, of course, get the planting done earlier in the season than this if it is practicable to do so. Every boy Is eligible for mem- ! bership who is between the ages of ten and eighteen. While this work is in-] tended primarily for boys, girls will not I be excluded if they wish to show their patriotism by cultivating an acre or more of wheat. Those who wish to be come members of the wheat clubs should remember to read all the litera ture sent them by the county agent and] to get the bulletins prepared and dis- j tributed by the State College of Agricul- | ture which gives them full advice about I the planting and cultivating of this im- ■ portant crop. Every boy should remem- | ber that he will be expected to keep a i record of just what he has done. Rec ord books have been prepared and will; be sent on application to all boys. The I boy shoud ask his father to help him 1 keep this record. It will interest the, father in the work, and they can work, together to good advantage, thereby not: only increasing acreage in wheat, but the yield and the profits as well. Each boy desiring to join the wheat club must raise at least one acre or more of wheat. If he can grow five or more acres so much the better. It i is important to remember that the acre- I age must be accurately ascertained. The county agent will help those who do not know how to measure land The acre age should be determined at the time of sowing and entered on the record book at once. Do not leave anything I to chance, but perform all of the work; at the proper time. It is Important to I remember that a good grade of seed' should be selected. The bulletin of the j State College of Agriculture referred to i gives this information. Boys living in i other states should apply to their agri- i cultural college for special bulletins on 1 I this subject. Each boy entering the wheat clubs, will be required to exhibit a peck of' grain at the county fair in the fall of; ISIS. When the grain is harvested, a i peck should be carefully selected and properly stored to keep weevils out and kept to be exhibited at the county fair. The record of the year's work must also accompany this exhibit. Boys desiring to show grain should get In touch with the county agent. He will help them to standardize their exhibits and tell them where to show. The work of the club nembers will be scored on the following basis: Yield 30 points, profit .30 points, exhibit of one peck of wheat 20 points, required report 20 points. Emphasis will be laid on the completeness and ac ; curacy of the report submitted. The best ten exhibits from each county fair I' will be selected to be sent to tne various : *tate fairs. The club members wnose j exhibits are selected to send to the state fairs will constitute the county team Prizes will be offered at these fairs to county teams. Which county in Georgia or any other, of the southeastern states will lead in he number of Jcres planted io wheat? Here is an opportunity for every boy to show his patriotism. I feel sure the fathers will encourage and help them. The government has asked the people of the south to grow all the wheat they THE .ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, OCTOBER 30. 1917. • need for home consumption so that the i transportation problem by which the ; coutnry is confronted may be mitigated ■ to some extent, and that the crop raised in other sections of the country may be "leased and sent abroad for the use of the army and navy. They have asked us ; to join hands with the rest of the coun i try in producing a surplus of wheat. ' Investigations indicate that much of our ' land is well adapted for wheat produc i tion and that we can raise this crop at some profit and advantage. We have been neglecting to cover up out soils in i the winter and they have washed and ; leached on that ac-counl We have I failed to diversify our crops and have depended too much on cotton. Here is an opportunity now for us to introduce a new phase of agriculture into the south, to diversify our crops to advan : tage and to raise essential foodstuffs. Get behind the boys in your county. Mr. Farmer, and see that a wheat club is organized. Give your boy a chance to show what he ean do. There is no rea son why the same relative results should not obtain in the course of a few years in the growth f wheat as have ob tained with corn through the medium of corn clubs. One Georgia box- in Jackson count}- raised 39 bushels of wheat on an acre of land. This appears to be the best record up to date. Who will set a new record for 1918? GRASSES ADAPTED TO GRAVELLY UPLANDS. J. W. fl.. Mineral Bluff. Ga.. writes: I wish to sow a good pasture grass on some gravelly clay upland. Wliat kind of grass would you advise? I have thought <>f setting Bermuda hr bunches a few feet apart. Can I do this this fall? in your section of the state among the best tame grasses you can under take to grow would be Red Top. Meadow Fescue. Bluegrass, white clover. Alsike clover, tall oat grass and orchard grass. Orchard grass is especially well adapt ed for growing under semi-shaded con ditions. Alsike clover does well in soils which arc slightly acid. Red Top. while doing best in moist bottoms, gives fair ly good results on soils that are well drained. At your elevation and under your climatic conditions we are inclined to think that a combination of Red Top. tall oat. orchard grass, white and Al sike clover would prove desirable for I>asture purposes. Wc would sow about four pounds of Red Top. two pounds of Meadow Fescue, six pounds of tall oat gras, four pounds of orchard grass, three pounds of white clover and three pounds of Alsike clover per acre. Our experience indicates that it has general ly been best to seed mixtures of this character in the early fall if there is a good season In the soil, or else in the early spring. Our best success has come from fall seeding. You can. of course, depend upon Ber muda to cover the land and make you a fair amount of grazing. You will not secure as much use of this grass in your section of the state as we do in the vicinity of Athens and south there of. There is no grass adapted to south ern conditions as a whole which is more desirable than Bermuda. This is due to the fact that It resists drouth so well. Is easy to establish, stands grazing well and has a good carrying capacity. You have the right idea about the quick est and cheapest way to establish Ber muda. You can also get a stand of it cheaper and with a greater degree of certainty, we think, than by attempting to establish the tame grasses we men tioned. If you attempt to plant tame grasses In your section of the state we advise that you use plenty of crushed raw lime rock, not less than two tons per acre, along with 200 pounds of acid phosphate, a sack of cottonseed meal or any Other carrier of organic nitrogen which'will become quickly available and help to stimulate the rapid growth and development of the young grass and clover plants. • V t» o DESTROYING WEED SEEDS IN MANUBE. J. H. M.. Albany. Ga.. writes: flow i* the best way of treating *tal>!c manure which contains nut grass seed so the land will not become infested with the grass? The best manner of handling the manure which contains nutgrass seed would be to make a slight excavation in the ground where the soil is usually firm or clayey in character. The point selected should be convenient to an abundant supply of water and the man ure pile to be treated. The excavation of the ground is suggested to prevent the leaching out of a great deal of the strength of the manure. It is general ly best to puddle the bottom of the soil of the pit made bv wetting it thoroughly and then tramping and work ing it. This makes a kind of hard pan or crirst on the surface of the ground wliioh is retentive of the moisture used to break down the manure. Next pile the manure in this pit, tramping it in very thoroughly and wet ting it frequently as it is tramped in, drawing the pile up to a “V” shape to the top. Make it several feet high. The outside of the pile may be cov ered with loose, partly decayed grass, straw or any other trash available. Keep the pile thoroughly wet at inter vale to prevent lire fanning. If the method suggested is followed the man ure will heat and will become so ex ceedingly hot, in fact, that it will de stroy the viability of almost all of the objectionable seeds it contains. This will cadi for some labor and effort, but it is the only practical method of meet ing the situation in question which we are in position to suggest. It is a method extensively used in this section of the country, and abroad for destroy ing *r-ed manure In fact. I might say that practically all the manure handled abroad previous to war condi tions was treated In the manner indi cated ’-pfore being applied to the land. Nutgrass is such a difficult pest to deal with if it ever once becomes es tablished in a piece of ground we think your farmers ean well afford to go to the expense and labor of handling the manure as indicated in the hope of de stroying the viability of the nutgrass seed In the manure they expect to ap ply to the land GOOD VARIETIES OF WHEAT TO PLANT. G. S. (*., Rome, Ga., writes: I would like to know the ls*t variety of wheat to now. If the around i« broadeanted with •(■Ma m.iniire will it b«< well to (ratter 20” pounds of acid just before disking and dragging, preparatory to drilling in tbe wheat? A number of varieties of wheat can be grown with success and profit in Georgia. Among these may be men tioned: Mediterranean. Fulc.aster. Fultz, Dietz. Amber. Klondike. Early Ripe and Red May. You should use about four or five pecks of wheat per acre. It is very im portant that the ground be thoroughly prepared. We would scatter the yard 4 Very Worldly World Noiv On Fire—By Bishop Candler George Eliot, in her little volume of essays, entitled "Theophrastus Such,' printed years ago an essay in which she deprecated sharply what she was pleas ed to call "Other-worldiness." She con demned most sarcastically the churches and the preachers of the Gospel for mak ing so much of‘the future life and so little of the life that now is, for think ing and talking too much of happiness of eternity and caring too little for the duties of time. If. in those days there was any just i ground for such criticism of the chris- I tian ministry and the churches, it is I quite certain any reason for censure of ' that kind. The world of today is the most worldly of worlds, in it there Is precious little of "Other-worldliness.’’ Much current Christianity is itself worldly, by which is meant tliat it con cerns itself exclusively with the things of earth and shuts out of view entirely the thought of eternity. It deals with the relations of men to one another and ignores utterly the relation of the hu man soul to God. A great deal of the preaching, which is most popular, is of a worldly type, that is to say. it aims at the meliora tion of the IHs of earth rather than at the promotion of heavenly life tn the hearts of man. and it Issues from sources that are bounded hy time anti I limited by sense. It is far more suit : able to the lecture platform than to l the pulpit. But ean an earth-bound Christianity ; preserve itself alive? Can worldly 1 preaching satisfy for long the souls of men? Hardily. We can not get along well in this world. if we habitually ignore the world to come. Without belief in eter nal life we shall surely impoverish the life that now is. In a recent issue of the North Amer ican Review appeared a very sugges tive article on “Some Difficulties in Doing Without Eternity.” Throughout the article runs a vein of sdbtle satire, which ocacsionally shades off towards a sad seriousness. Among other things the writer says with reference to the effect of the loss of faith in immortality upon the affec tions of the heart: Evanescence tends also to under mine our pergonal affections. It harly seems worth while to be over fond of relative or friend whom a breath of wind inay sntff out like a Came. Why should beings more brittle than beetles go about loving each other as if they were gods? Morally, human frailty was often subconsciously controlled by keeping ourselves fit for the society we ex pected ultimately to enter, that of saints and sages and perhaps of God himself. In this suggestive paragraph the writer of the article opens to view a long line of sad reflection. The best and tenderest affections of the heart wither in the blighting atmosphere of faithless ness. , The noblest heroisms become quixotic in appearance, if they do not cease altogether, when men no longer believe in eternal life. Why should one jeopardize, or sacrifice, for any cause, the life he has in this world, if there is to be no other life to come? Every sol dier on the fields of France, fighting for the right, might well say. with St. Paul, "If the dead rise not. why stand we in jeopardy every hour?'' An era of world liness by its very nature is a,n unherolc period. Doubt, or denial, of eternal life af fects adversely even things temporal. When men begin to say. “Tomorrow we die” they begin also to cal) to one an other, "Let us eat and drink and be merry.” Why should they give them selves to anything higher than physical enjovment, if physical life in this wor’d be all and the end of all? Why should Individuals or nations regard any higher law than that of self-interest and self indulgence, if eternal life be no more than ar exploded fairy dream? AH their social and political life must inevitably conform to their faithlessness. Upon this point the writer of the ar ticle mentioned says: "Apart from our personal pangs. manure over the surface and disk it In. Mix it thoroughly with the surface soil, using at least 200 to 300 pounds of acid phosphate, and harrow it in at the same time. Yard manure is dSr ficient in this particular element and wheat responds to the use of acid phosphate. It is important to remember that the acid phosphate should be mixed thoroughly with the soil. Sow the wheat with n grain drill and put it in about the 15th of thia month if possible. Early seeding of wheat has proven far more successful and profitable in Georgia than late seeding. • • • SOWING RYE AND BERMUDA GRASS TOGETHER. .1. R. M.. Ducktown/ Tenn., writes: I am going to sow three-fourtli* of an acre to rye. and I would like to know if I can get a stand of Bermuda grass by sow ing the seed this fall with the rye. and how much seed will it take? It would be inadvisable to sow Ber muda grass in the fall. This is strict ly a tropical or sub-tropical grass. As you know, only comparatively small quantities of seed of this grass are pro duced in America, by far the greater part of our supply coming from Aus tralia. Bermuda grass should, there fore. only be sown in the spring after the ground has warmed up and when there is a good growing season at hand. Much of the seed of Bermuda now on the market is not of the best quality. In other words, it only germinates fairly well. Our experience has led us to think that the best practice, as a rule, is to establish Bermuda from sets. For pasture or lawn purposes plant with two inch squares set in rows say 18 inches to three feet apart. Place the sets about 18 inches apart in the row. If you w«nt something to make bot tom in a rye crop plant 10 or 12 pounds of crimson clover. Hairy vetch can also be used to some advantage. White clover could possibly be seeded with rye. but the seed is now very expen sive and hard to get. TREATING A HORSE INFESTED WITH WORMS. P. C„ Keener. Ala., Writec I have a horse and colt that the worms are eating up. I would like to have a remedy. The digestive tract of a mule or horse is frequently infested with parasitic worms. They are generally found in the stomach and intestines. In most cases, these worms gain their nourishment from the partially digested food and for this reason you should feed your tnare and colt very sparingly for about 48 hours, giving only nourishing, easi ly digested food. Any medicine given should be taken on an empty stomach, followed by a good purgative to expel the worms from the Intestines. Turpen tine is an excellent remedy. It should be given in doses ranging from 1 dram for small animals to 1 to 2 ounces for targe horses or mules. Always dilute the turpentine wtih milk, olive oil or raw linseed oil so that It will not blis ter the mouth or throat. These doses should be given once daily for two or three days, followed by a good purga tive. With this treatment, your horse and colt should show evidence of im provement within a short time. the loss of etfV-aity has hail effects, social and political, that intensify our private discomfort. Perhaps if our difficulties are clarified we may recognize how burdened we actual ly are. and b willing to allow our selves a makeshift leniency. Chief among the public phenomena di rectly traceable to the absence of eternity is the war. On a basis of strict mortality, war for aggran dizement becomes the only legiti mate activity for person or nation. Reason shows that since death ends all. material things are the only things worth getting, and even more clearly shows that since hu | man beings are as finite as mosqui i toes, they are no more worthy of preservation. Germany is the most laudihly logical nation in the world, but iter logic has been a little un comfortable for the nations who are more sluggish in evolution, and who will still cling to their retro gressive respect for spiritual val uations and to their obsolete rever ence for the human soul. Os course if Germany had not purified her self from all ta'nt of faith in eternity, sho might conceivably have waited for permeation through peace, instead of being in such a devil of a hurry to chop away through for her culture. Doubtless in the couse of time, other nations will attain Germany’s serene heights of pure reason; but at present it is necessary frankly to admit that aggression, while our brains pronounce it a most rational pastime, is still for our Imagina tion and sympathies one of the chief temporary discomforts of do ing without eternity.” That "the los sos eternity has had ef fects. social and political,” is demon strated and exemplified by some utter ances of Count Bcrnjitorff. the German ambassador at Washington, just before his departure from our country. This Count Bernstorff, it will be re membered, gave hitnself to the most dis honorable and immoral intrigues while he was the accredited and accepted am bassador of his country to our govern ment. What was the credal base of his shameless conduct? Let him answer for himself. From an interview with him, published by a New York daily, just before he left America, the following sentences are taken: “I know this world and don’t trou ble about any other.” "I think the man a fool who de nies himself any good thing in this life, unless for health’s sake, or some dominant reason.” "1 think a man should do right, but I am very lenient, especially towards sins of the flesh, when the temptation is great and the results unimportant.” In the three sentences quoted is am ple explanation of all his perfidious con duct. His conduct is controlled by no principles of inviolable right because he disbelieves the future world and knows and cares for no world but that of the present. A suffocating worldliness has choked to death all virtue in his soul. So in every man of the world just in proportion to his indifference to eternity and his devotion to time. Such worldli ness destroys the moral perspective and looks with self-deceiving gaze even upon the things of time and sense. It is both near-sighted and blear-eyed. Prevalent worldliness is perverting the education of youth. It demands that all education be what it calls “scientific and practical.” The curriculum which it prescribes proceeds on the assump tion that students belong to this world only, and that the culture which serves anything higher than what the senses can enjoy and what may be desired in time, is a vain thing. And so our exceedingly worldly world shows symptoms in its social, educa tional. political and religious life of a mortal malady preying upon its vitals. Unless It be supplied speedily with some fresh, tonic air from the heights of eter nity, it must surely perish. The world which forgets God will be turned into hell, or rather will itself become a hell. Our worldly world is now afire. World liness is very inflammable and is easily consumed by spontaneous combustion.
