THE PROGRAM FOB FOOD SAVING Something like ten million American women have signed the food pledge cards and so have undertaken through the exercise of economy in the home Ito help win the war. This is a very wonderful army which has been assem i bled, and that they will accomplish | something worth while is a self-evident fact to every one acquainted with the • energy, the efficiency and the deter mination of American womanhood. While this is true, thousands of those who have signed the pledge cards are not quite clear in their own minds as to what they are expected to undertake and how to proceed to accomplish the end the food administration has in view. On this account it seems proper to review in a somewhat brief manner the latest advice and instructions which have been issued on the subject of food conserva- I tibn. To begin with, we are expected to have one wheatless day each week and one wheatless meal each day. By this is meant that no wheat will be used in the preparation of any of the breads eaten at the wheatless meal or on the wheatless day. It is very important I to get this matter clearly in mind, because a lot of people imagine that if i they do not eat white bread that it is all right to use whole wheat or gra ham bread. Rolls, of course, are not tc be used in any form. This same ad vice applies to the wheatless day. In ord*;- that every one may have a def inite objective to work towards, it is advised that Wednesday may be re garded als the wheatless day. If it is known that bread will not be used on Wednesday, the baker knows better how to organize his work and so effects a saving in white bread. The merchant knows that on that particular day, or the day before, he will be expected to have on hand a plentiful supply of sub stitutes for weat flour. These may consist of oatmeal, barley meal, rye flour, cornmeal, buckwheat flour and rice. To say that it entails a sacrifice, therefore, to have a wheatless day each week is without foundation. In Amer ica we have several cereals which we can substitute satisfactorily for wheat. Across the waters their supply and varietey are much more restricted than ours. We can be equally well nourished and fed on just as palatable and desirable food, if we substitute the other cereals mentioned, for wheat as if we ate ourselves to repletion on that particular product. Those who THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, JANUARY 18, 1918. will not join in the saving of wheat, therefore, under the ideA that it imposes a hardship or will interfere with the proper nourishment of the family are selfish, unpatriotic and uninformed. The food saving program includes one meatless day each week which has been designated as Tuesday. Here again it is desirable that there be uniformity of action for the benefit of the butcher and the supply man. By meatless day is meant one in which no red meat is consumed. Under this class would fall such meat as beef, pork, mutton, veal and lamb. None of these animal prod ucts are to be consumed on the day in question, whether obtained in a fresh form from the butcher shop or as pre served meat. In other words, dried beef, bacon, ham and lard are as much tabooed as the fresh red meat. This is very Important to remember, for as a matter of fact, the canned foods are even more essential for use abroad than the fresh meats. Hence, both must be saved in order that there may be a supply of fresh product to can, and in order that the canned product may be available for shipment abroad. This program does n«< exercise any hardship on the people of the United States because they are still left fish, fresh and canned in all its various forms, eggs and chickens, and one who cannot provide three hearty and satis factory meals from the great array of sea food which we have in America and the abundance of chickens and eggs which has always characterized our country Is Indeed a poor home man ager. While it has not been announced as a meatless day, It is presumed that Friday will also be so regarded. In addition to the above there should be one porkless day. and it is suggested that this be Saturday. This program means, of course, that no fresh slaugh tered pork, bacon, ham or lard be used on that particular day. Bacon constf plenty of fat, hence the necessity of soldier’s ration. He must also have plenty of fat, hence th enecessity of saving lard. It is important to remem ber In this connection that the number of hogs In the United States actually decreased by something like seven mil lion last year. Statistics show that we also ate nearly three and a half pounds more pork per capita than ever before in the history of our country. The num ber of Swine abroad has decreased ma terially: hence if we are to supply the pork which Is needed for our army and our navy and our allies. It must be ob tained through the national savings of these products. Det us all remember. ; therefore, that Saturday in future is to be a porkless day. Wa are expected now not to use more than three pounds of sugar per person per month. This is all the sugar the food administration can undertake to make available per capita. This amount has oeen fixed due to the necessity of sending sugar abroad and by reason of th* visible siipnly available for con sumption during next year. It Is not a difficult thing to reduce the consump tion of sugar. Many of us have been using five lumns of sugar in a cup of coffiee. The fact Is we have not been drinking coffee at all. but some sort of la eweefpned liauld we call coffee. As a rule half of the coffee was left in the bottom of the cup and so was thrown , awav and wasted. One lump ner cun will n««wer verv well If we reduce the ouantity of sweetened drinks we con 'snme we can easilv ret along on a su gar consumption of three pounds per month per person. You will see at once that this allows a good ounce and j *» half nor dnv. It is true that we have been consuming from three to four ! ounces, but it would have been better I *or vs as a nation If we had con.Rvrned leas sugar. No sneHal hardship Is ♦ hereforA tn be worked on the Individual •n asking him to comply with this su gar regulation. There are three prinrinal elements whirh go to make nn the ration of the | human being Thev cnnsfst of what is I known as protein which Is chiefly pres ent in meat, beans, fish, pnultrv, milk and to a less extent, in grains. In this country we eat from 80 to 90 per cent more protein than is required to main tain health. We can reduce the amount of meat we have been consuming by one-half withn”t In any way lessening our national efficiency. At the same time we will save millions of pounds of meat for our men at the fighting front and will also stabilize meat pro duction and eliminate the dangers of famine In this direction. Fat is also needed bv the human be ing. We obtain it chiefly in butter, cream, lard, bacon, beans and vegetable oils such as cottonseed nil. We eat and waste 240 per cent more fat than is necessary, resulting in the overworking of the digestive organs and the discom fort of our bodies generally. Fat has now become one of the most precious and essential of our foodstuffs. It is bringing several dollars a pound in Germany. We need fat not only for our program in war production, but for the proper nutrition of our soldiers. Det us reduce the consumption of fats by. at least 200 per cent. Tn other words, eat in future only one-third as much butter and cream as you have been consuming, and you will be better off if you follow out this program. There Is another series of element’ which the human being must have con sisting of carbohydrates. These are the heat and energy producers. In this class we find the grains, sugar, potatoes and other vegetables. We can obtain the supply of carbohydrates we need from corn, oats and other cereals. Vegeta bles supply carbohydrates in abundance Det ur use these and so save the wheat. In conclusion, let nothing be wasted, clean the plate, serve small portions, purchase less of essential supplies, and remember that in carrying this simple porgram into effect you are as truly a soldier of T’ncle Sam as if you were following the Stars and Stripes to the battle front. You are protecting and prolonging the life of the American boy who has offered his services to his coun try and has already gone to the front. You are sustaining the fighting power of our allies and thereby lightening the task which will otherwise devolve upon America. FIGHTING ANTHRACNOSE TN COTTON E P.. Central. S. C., write*: My soil i is a gray cold soil with sandy clay subsoil, i Cooke cotton seems best for my laud, but there is ao much anthracnose in my cotton thia Tear that I dare not plant the seed, j would Hk< t to get some pure seed. <an you suggest some other variety that will • suit my land better? # Cooke's cotton is a good variety and has made a satisfactory showing > the tests conducted by us, not only at Athens, but in various other parts of this state. It is probably more readily ■ attacked by anthracnose than some othei I strains. At least this seems to have been our experience with it. We are of the opinion, however, that certain strains of it are more subject to this disease than others. Anthracnose, as yon know, causes very considerable losses to the cotton growers of the southeast- ern states. On this account work was commenced at this institution several years ago looking toward the develop ment of a strain that would be more resistant to this disease. Considerable progress was made in this direction and the variety known as Sunbeam was developed. It has now been quite ex tensively cultivated in Georgia and has proven quite satisfactory, not only as a variety of cotton suited to general cultivation, but on account of Its very considerable ability to resist anthrac nose. We think it desirable for you to secure one of the better selected strain-’ of this variety. We think you will find it quite satisfactory for growth under your conlltions. It is a reasonably early sort, possesses a good quality df fiber and yields a very satisfactory percent age of lint. The seed are also of very good quality. In yield it has compared quite favorably with such other va rieties we have tested and during sev eral seasons it has stood at the head of the list. FACTS ABOUT RAW ROCK PHOSPHATE M. S. W„ Albany, Ga.. writes: 1 would like what information you can give me re garding raw ground phosphate. It is fine enough so that 70 per cent will pass through a sieve with 40.000 openings to the square inch. Several farmers who have used it seem to think it is valuable for all crop* and a great land builder. I would appreciate your opinion concerning it. There is undoubtedly a place for ground phosphate rock in connection with the development of a system of permanent agriculture in Georgia. The proper handling of this material, how ever, should be thoroughly understood and appreciated before one attempts to use it too extensively. It is rather a new material to our people. The scarcity of sulphuric acid, of course, has greatly enhanced the price of acid phosphate and hence a great many concerns are attempting to sell ground rock phos phate as a substitute for acid phos phate. They particularly urge farmers to use it because of its cheapness. It is true that the ground rock phosphate, when of good grade, contains a high per cent of phosphoric acid, but farmers do not as a rule understand that this is not in an available condition and may not become available in a single crop season so as to be of any use to •the plants growing on the land. Those intending to use phosphate rock should bear the following sugges tions in mind: They should be able to purchase it at a relatively low cost. It must be ground very finely. It should be used at the rate of 1,000 pounds per acre on long-season crops, on lands rich in organic matter or which may be enriched by heavy applications of yard manure or green crops turned under, and the farmer should be will ing to wait a considerable time for re sults. On short-season crops where lib eral rations of quickly available phos phoric acid are needed to insure the proper maturity of the crop, we advise the use of suitable amounts of acid phosphate. On meadows and pastures and on some of our winter-growing ce reals, rations of ground phosphate rock can probably be used to some advan tage. Where one is in position to apply liberal amounts of this material and wait several years for results, benefits from its use will no doubt accrue. Farmers should also remember that in purchasing this material that it is de sirable to obtain that running very high •In total phosphoric acid, say, about 32 to 35 per cent and relatively low in iron: and aluminum oxide. This material is' essentially valuable for the phosphoric i acid it contains. THE VALUE OF DRIED HLQUD AND GOAT MANURE C. V.: --Boynton, Ila., writes: What is your opinion of dried blood and goat ma nure as a fertilizer? •I Ai I Dried blood is an important carrier of : nitrogen. Its color varies from red to black, depending on the temperature at which it is dried. The bright red blood is generally considered to be of more value for fertilizing purposes than the dark blood. Blood contains from 13 to 15 per cent of nitrogen. The black dried blood var ies greatly in compostion, the percent age of the foregoing element varios from six to twelve. The dark blood may contain as much as 3 to 4 per cent of phosphoric acid. For field crops the dark blood would probably be as ser viceable as any kind you could purchase. For truck crops it is probably desirable to use light colored. I would say that goat and sheep man ure are very much the same in compo sition, It would vary, of course, in compositon according to the age and condition of the animal producing it and the character of feed used In the dally ration. Ordinarily goat manure would probably contain from twelve to eight een pounds of nitrogen, five to seven pounds of phosporic acid, and thirteen to nineteen pounds of potash per 100 Jobson Calls On All Leaders To Help Farmers Realizing that the time is at hand for the farmers of this country to set their hands to the big task of raising the greatest crop ever produced, John B. Jobson, expounder of the Common Sense System of Deep Plowing and inventor of the remarkable Jobson plow, makes a di rect appeal to public officials and leadi ng farmers everywhere .o help in the big movement to put in more effective methods that will enable every worker to produce a bigger crop with less la bor and expense. “It’s now or never,’’ says Mr. Job son, “for the deep plowing season is right on us. We’re straining every nerve to place the benefits of our Sys tem on 100,000 farms in ample time to produce millions of extra bushels; but with the help of farm demonstrators and thinking inen all over the South we can and will double this large figure. “In many sections of the South, coun ty and even state officials are deeply in terested in the work, and they are pro ducing big results. There Is no possible shadow of a doubt about the new deep tilling plow being the one implement that meets the critical need of the hour. Xo thinking man will doubt this when he has investigated and learned what practical farmers and experimental ag riculturists have to say about it. Dike the little percussion cap. it has revolu ionized methods in its field. “But the question is, how to get this all over the country in the quickest pos sible time. Everybody must gel busy and help.’’ Mr. Jobson appeals to the good judg ment and patriotism of every man in the South, and he says to tell any farmer in this entire section that he can not af ford to begin his spring plowing without making inquiry into the Jobson System. If any farmer in the whole country has failed to get full information about the Jobson System, let him write to P. O. Box 672, Atlanta, Ga.. and Mr. Job- ( son will see to it personally that a free booklet is sent. Retail dealers almost everywhere are active in this work. Ask your merchant qbout it. Tell him to snow you a Jobson Plow and ask him for some Jobson System literature. Advt.) ' PEACH & APPLE TREES 2c & up P»«r. Plum, Chtrrv, Small FrnlU, Strawbarrlm. Tte«a, Mata. .to.

Balfour Tells House of Com mons That Great Britain Is Preparing to Acknowledge Regime Officially COPENHAGEN, Jan. 16.—The corres pondent at Berlin of the National Tl dende says he learns it has been decided that Chancellor von Hertling shall ad dress the mam committee of the reich stag Friday. LONDON, Jan. 16.—Foreign Minister Balfour announced in the house of com mons today that Great Britain was about “to establish official relations with Minister Kitvinoff.” representative in Ixindcn of the Bolsheviki govern ment. The minister was careful to say that the government had not yet recognized the Bolsheviki, but that they had re ceived unofficial revelations through an agent of the embassy in Petrograd. Bolsheviki Send Ultimatum To Government of Rumania PETROGRAD. Jan. 16.—War on Ru mania unless that little nation within twenty-four hours releases Russian offi cers held by her was tnreatened in an ultimatum served by the Bolshevik government today. The exact number of Russian army officers who were re cently arrested by Rumanian authorities is not known. The Russian ultimatum declared: “We are informed that Rumanians surrounded and disarmed the One Hun dred and Ninety-tourth and Forty-ninth Russian regiments and arrested a com mittee of the One Hundred and Ninety fifth regiment, also visiting Austrian of ficers. “Failure to release these persons and failure to punish those responsible with in twenty-four hours will receive in our ! considering relations ruptured and in taking the most energetic military mea- • sures.’’ British Labor Party Sends Message to Russian People NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—(Summay of European Cables.)—While German lead ers are undecided as to what course to pursue in the peace negotiations with Russia, the British Dabor party has is sued a message to the Russian people, supporting the principle of self-deter mination of peoples and no annextions for the British empire. Appeal also is made to the peoples of Germany and Austria-Hungary to support a policy of , self-determination and no annexations. Although the Russo-German peace ne i gotiations were reported recently to have been indefinitely suspended a Ber lin newspaper is quoted today as declar ing they were resumed at Brest-Ditovsk Monday. Plausibility is given this state ment by the sac k that German advices , carry the inference that Foreign Secre tary von Kuehlmann and his fellow delegates are still at Brest-Ditovsk, and the fuijther fact, apparent from Petro grad dispatches that Deon Troizky, the Bolsheviki foreign minister who has been heading the Rusisan delegation has not returned to Petrograd. pounds. The larger figures represent the maximum amounts and the smaller fig ures robably a fair average. The value of this material for fertilizing purposes would depend much on the character of the bedding with which it is admixed. It is, of course, a very good form of fer tilizer if it can be purchased at a rea sonable price. Dike most yard manures, it is not unusually rich in plant food and is particularly deficient in phos phoric acid. It should, therefore, be used at the rate of two tons and up wards per acre, depending on the nature of the crops to be grown and the char acter of the land to which it is to be applied. It should be used In connection with a considerable amount of phos phoric acid in order that it may be bal anced up and so brought into a proper equilibrium in order to furnish the nec essary constituents required by growing crops. One could not tell from the examina tion of a sample of either of these ma terials by the eye as to their fertilizing value. The only way to purchase either one is on the basis of a guarantee, which you can no doubt obtain either di rectly from the handlers of this mater ial or through the agency of your state department of ffgriculture. Presumably you have a fertilizer inspection system in Florida. • • • TREATING INDIGESTION IN DAXBT COWS. W. 11. J., Randleman, Ga., writes: I I ■ have a cow nine years old. She is a strong milker, but at times she has something like indigestion. It takes her appetite and stops the flow of milk and throws her into a high fever. Can you tell me what wilt prevent these spells? Evidently, from what you say, your cow is suffering from some form of in digestion. This may be due to the char acter of the food you are giving her or to some organic trouble. The chances are it is caused by the use of an im proper ration. If you are feeding hulls ■ and cottonseed meal I am sure you are not combining them properly, or you are over-feeding. When these materials are used as food for a cow she should be allowed only one pound of meal to five pounds of hulls. Under no circum stances should you feed her over four or five pounds of meal a day. For a small cow four pounds is enough. This is not a well constituted ration for cows at best. In .other words, you should provide some succulent feed such as fresh cut sorghum, corn or any*' other green crop will provide. It is ad visable that your cow have st. pasture over which she can graze. This will help to keep her in good condition by necessitating her taking a sufficient amount of exercise. Supply her with an abundance of pure water. See that her manger is properly cleaned and kept in a good condition. Washing it out with sal soda once in a while will be helpful. Instead of feeding cottonseed meal j alone feed half corn meal and half cot- I tonseed meal. Do not allow the cow to gorge herself one time and then let her go for some time without food. Tn , other words, regularity in feeding is necessary. You should draw the milk out of the i udder thoroujrhlv and completelv. If it : becomes congested bathe with hot wa- ' ter for twenty rpinutes at a time two ’ or three times dailf and wipe with a , dry cloth. Then rub the udder vaseline to prevent chafing. A digestive tonic could be given with advantage, especially when the cow is i suffcrirx- fmm a mor<* or less chronic i form of indigestion. We believe th* use of nlentv of green feed a«d the use of the concentrates indicate.!, however, will result in Improving the condition of your cow very materially.
