THE PX) DU CT ION OF PEEISHABLES nr 1918 There is naturally much concern among truckers and fruit growers as to what the prospects may be for dis posing of their crops to advantage in Ifklß. The congestion of the railroads and the difficulties of transportation generally have led many to believe that the prospects for disposing of their crops profitably are not good. Os course, it is difficult to prognosticate the situa tion which will have developed later on in the year, but in so far as the high officials of the food administration can now foresee or determine there is every reason to believe that as good facilities for handling and distributing truck and fruit crops will be available this year as in previous years. There has been no diminution in the supply of refrigerator cars, and the food ad- IMt A I LAIN I A btMi-wtfcKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1918. > ministration at Washington wishes the farmers, truckers and fruit growers of the country to be informed of this ’ fact, and assured that in so far as is hu- * manly possible every effort will be made to aid them in marketing their i crops satisfactorily the present season, t To this end the energies of the food administration will be bent toward pro t viding an adequate supply of refriger ator cars, and in co-operation with the , bureau of markets undertaking to dis . tribute perishable products as uniform- • ly throughout the country as possible in > order that there may be no glut at i any one season and fair and remunera i tive prices maintaied for the producers I of perishables throughout the United ■ States. This announcement is a very > important one and should set at rest . the fears of those who have been de bating as to whether they should plant truck crops during the present year and spray and care for their fruit plan tations as carefully as in the past. It is now more generally and clearly recognized than ever before that fruits and vegetables are an important and essential part of the human dietary, and in view of the necessity of saving meat, fats and other concentrated prod ucts for shipment abroad, it is both necessary and desirable that our own people eat a larger proportion of fruits and vegetables. By doing so they will not only supply the system with desir able mineral salts, but a larger propor tion of nourishment than fruits and vegetables are supposed to contain. Our people can cut down their consumption of fat and of protein in the form of le£n meat with material advantage and substitute therefor larger quantities of perishables. In this way they will nan only be kept in good physical condition, but a great waste of essential foods will be prevented. Every individual should therefore un dertake even on a city lot to produce as much of the perishables as possible and utilize them for the benefit of his own family, canning and preserving the sur plus for future use. Every fruit tree should be sprayed and pruned that the largest supply of fruit may be made available, not only for the land owner, but for public consumption as well. The intensive cultivation of all sorts of truck crops, such as lettuce, spinach, kale, tomatoes, radishes, beans, peas’, beets, tomatoes and corn should be un dertaken in order that our markets may be adequately supplied with food just as essential and necessary as meat, bread and potatoes. There is an idea, for instance, that there has been a very large sweet and Irish potato cropfcrown in the United States, and that the de mand for spring Irish potatoes, for ex ample, will be small and the price un satisfactory. There is no reason to be lieve that this conclusion is well found ed. In fact, if Irish potatoes are ma tured so as to place them on the market relatively early, and if they are proper ly graded, and sorted and standardized before shipment is made, there is every reason to believe that they will be in good demand, and that the production of this crop y will return a satisfactory profit to the land owner. The severe and continued freezes of the present winter have destroyed great areas of truck crops along the Gulf coast. Even ir the weather moderates much of this land will have to be replanted; hence greens and early vegetables are likely to be scarce and late in reaching the market the present year. It will take a special effort to overcome the damage and lose entailed by the freezes an dto again fill our storage warehouses wtih truck I products suited to the requirements of ! the retail trade. Food has now become a much more important factor in the war situation than it was six months ago; hence we should make a special effort to grow an abundance of the crops in question the i present spring and summer. Even if high prices are not obtained, it would ; still be a patriotic duty and a thorough l ly desirable thing to grow truck crops ion an extensive basis. People who wish I j to be assured of large profits at this I time are not looking at the question of ! food from the proper point of view. It is not a question just at this time of what we have or what we can get for i it; it is more a question of what we ; must do in order that the war may be , won quickly and decisively and that all . our vested rights and privileges may be ' preserved and used for ourselves and our children. While no true American j believes that Germany will win the i war, it is not inappropriate at times to consider what would be the result and the condition if she should win. When ever we do this it will give us a new patriotic view point of our duty towards our country and ourselevs at this time, because it must be evident to every right thinking man that if Germany should succeed our vested rights and interests would be seriously endanger ed. Therefore, in the consideration of any policy which shall actuate our pro ducers at this time, it is both their priv ilege and their duty to view this ques tion from every angle and do what is for the best interests of the country a a whole even though it may cause some ; sacrifice on their part. As to the attitude of the food admin istration towards perishables, a word may not be out of place at this time. No attempt hag been made to regulate or stabilize the price of crops of this character. The reasons for this are not i difficult to understand and appreciate 'if one will stop long enough to study the situation a few minutes from an i economic point of view. The produc j tion of all vegetables and fruits is a highly specialized business. It is there fore a rather uncertain business. It costs a great deal to produce special crops because of the large amount of fertilizer which must be used, the very considerable amount of labor employed I and the 4iigh cost incident to transpor ' tation and distribution through refrig i erator cars or cold storage plants. Re alizing the essential nature of industries | of this class, the food administration Is | not disposed, therefore, to put any lim i itation on the sale price of crops of this character because while a truck ' grower might make a good profit on Irish potatoes, every other crop he ! grows that year may be raised at a , loss or at only a slight gain oyer the 1 expense involved. It is also clear that the commission merchants handling produce of this kind are engaged in one of the most unstable and uncertain bust nesses in this country. Investigations reveal the fact that a commission mer ! chant may often do business at a loss for several months of the year when his volume of business is unusually good and his sales rapid and uniform. It is also important to remember that the percentage of loss in handling perish ables is very great indeed, due to the | readiness with which most vegetables j and fruit decay, to unavoidable delays in transit, to improper packing and , precooling of the cars used, and to care less handling and exposure to the air | after being taken from refrigerator cars j or cold storage plants. Therefore, a much larger apparent margin of profit ! is necessary in this business than in al- ! most any other industry, and yet in , spite of this considerable apparent inar- I gin, it is quite possible for a firm to do business at a loss. One of the reasons why the grower thinks he is discriminated against and does not receive a fair price for his products lies in the fact that he does not pack them according to the stand- ' ards set up by the bureau of markets. A : great many of the contaners used are I flimsy and break up under handling. ! There is no use in sending inferior, dam- I aged on diseased fruit or vegetables of i any kind to market under the impression that because they are put in refrigera tor cars they will reach their destina- ’ tion in good condition. If producers ; will grade and pack their products prop- ; erly, they will find their returns much more satisfactory. From the foreging it should not be j concluded that the food administration will take its hand off all perishables and allow the market to control, or specula tion. hoarding and other policies inim ’ical to the welfare of either producer or consumer to be practiced by the middle- i man. At the same time an effort will ■ be made to see that justice be done in ! so far as is humanly possible to all | concerned in the production, handling I and consumption of perishables. THE FIHTTEIZTNG VALUE 07 VEL VET BRANS AND PEANUTS H. G., Albany, (4a., writes: Please let me know if velvet brun meal anil peanut, meat arc as desirable for fertilizer as cottonseed meal. I would like to know the analysis of each. A ton of cottonseed meal containing 7 per cent of ammonia will contain ap proximately 120 pounds of nitrogen, about 53 pounds of phosphoric acid and 36 pounds of potash. A ton of velevt bean meal from which the hulls have been excluded will contain 80 pounds of nitrogen, 20 pounds phosphoric acid and 34 pounds potash. A ton of peanut meal including the hulls will contain 65 pounds nitrogen, 15.4 pounds phosphor ic acid and 12.8 pounds potash. You will thus see that a ton of cottonseed meal contains almost as much ni trogen, three and a half times as much phosphoric acid and three times as much potash as a ton of peanuts when the hulls are included. A ton of velvet beans from which the hulls have been excluded contains forty pounds less ni trogen, 33 pounds less phosphoric acid and two pounds less potash than a ton of cottonsed meal of the grade men tioned. If the hulls are Included in the velvet beans the difference in the nitro gen content would be much greater. In other words, a ton of velvet beans in cluding the hulls only contains about half as much nitrogen as a ton of 7 per cent ammonia meal. These facts should enable you to determine the ap proximate relative value of the different consentrates mentioned for feeding pur poses and to purchase and utilize them on a proper economical basis. You wnll see. of course, that a considerable dif ferential for fertilizing purposes alone should prevail between velvet beifn meal and peanut meal as compared with 7 per cent cottonseed meal for fertilizing purposes. NOTES ON THE CULTIVATION OF PEANUTS A correspondent writes: What soil is best suited to peanuts, and how should they be i cultivated? How should they be planted and cultivated? How many are required per acre, and when is the best tiime to plant? The best soil to select for peanuts is a sandy loam. A loose friable soil should be selected because it is easier for the pegs from which the pods will develop to enter the land. The soil should be limed, preferably at the rate of one ton per acre, using the raw crush ed rock for this purpose. The lime may be applied at any time and should be scattered over the top of the ground and harrowed in. Later on fertilize with 300 to 500 pounds of acid phosphate. . ITI L normal times potash should be used; but its cost is so great that its application cannot be advised at present. The land ( should be made clean for this crop. Corn or cotton land may be used for peanuts Plow the soil thoroughly and then har row so as to develop a good tilth. , Peanuts may be planted on the level or on ridges. Most people prefer to plant on a low ridge. These ridges are made by means of a turn plow. Cultivators with suitable points may be used for the same purpose. Before planting, the ridges should be flattened out by means of a weeder or a spike tooth harrow. The seed bed should be fairly firm. The seed may be sown with a planter, which opens the furrow, drops the seed and Kero-Oil Engines Twlc* Power at Hall tho Coat Sizoa 2 to 22 H-P.--Select Yoor Own Tons* - Dirert-from-Fartory prieaa.

Cover to ■ a depth of one and a half to two inches. The distance between the rows varies In case of Spanish peanuts 30 inches should be satisfactory. If the larger sorts are used about 36 inches should be allowed. The hills should be 12 to 18 inches apart in the row. As a rule. ‘ two peas should be dropped in each hill, i About two bushels of unhulled Spanish ■ peanuts will be required to plant an ! acre. It is generally best to soak the I nuts a few hours before planting so as ito hasten germination. Shelling will af ford, you understand, a more rapid ger mination. but it is a somewhat difficult and costly process. The time of planting varies, but in the southern part of the state April is generally considered the best month, though, of course, peanuts, may be plant ed as late as July. Give rapid, clean surface tillage after planting. As soon as the line of plants can be seen the weeder may be used for a few times. Later the one or two-horse cultivator must be relied on. Os course, at the I last cultivation some earth may be ■ thrown slightly on the plants, thus mak ! ing a loose ridge or bed of loose soil on which the pegs may rapidly take root. Which Is Best for Fertilizer Vslvst Beans or Cotton Seed Meal? J. E. T„ Blythe, Ga., writes: Please ad vise n>p what fertilizer properties there would be in velvet beans and the hulls ground together to use wtlb acid as cotton seed meal is used. A fairly good fertilizer may be made from velvet beans ground either with or without the hulls. When the beans are ground without the hulls a ton will be found to contain about 80 pounds of nitrogen, 20 pounds phosporic acid, and 34 pounds of potash. If the hulls are included a ton will contain about 57 pounds nitrogen, 16 pounds of phos phor! acid, and 34.5 pounds of potash. The incorporation of the hulls, there fore, reduces the nitrogen quite mate rially, but will not affect the other con stituents to any appreciable extent. A mixture of 1,000 pounds of 16 per cent acid with 1,300 pounds of beans without the hulls will result in a mixture, each ton of which would contain 40 pounds of nitrogen, 170 pounds pnosphoric acid, and 17 pounds of potash. This would represent a formula containing 25 per cent nitrogen, 8.5 per cent phosphorie acid, and about .75 per cent potash. If the velvet beans containing • the hulls were used the percentage of nitrogen would be reduced considerably more. It will be seen that this formula, even when made up with beans from which the hulls have been excluded, will b® low in nitrogen. In most Georgia soils a formula containing at least 3 per cent of this element is desirable, also a fairly satisfactory amount of phosphoric acid and, of course, potash will be valuable, though lower than the amount which we would try to use under normal con ditions. Possibly velvet beans, with or without the hulls, at the?r present price provide plant food constituents some what near the same relative cost as cot tonseed meal. There is no reason why this material should not be used for fer tilizing purposes other than the objec tion of applying an animal food directly to the soil without first using it for feeding purposes. • ♦ • The Food and Fertilizer Value of Feanu x Meal F. E. F.. Colnmbufl, Ga., writes: Please give me some information regarding the analysis and availability of peanut meal. We presume from your letter that you wish the food and fertilizer value of peanut meal. Practically all of the pea nut meal in Georgia, in so far as we are informed at present, contains the hull and while some variation In composition will no doubt be met with In different samples, the figures presented below i may be taken as fairly representative of the product found on our markets. One hundred pounds of this peanut meal, including the hull, contain approx imately 18.4 pounds of digestible pro tein, 15.3 pounds of digestible carbohy drates, and 32.6 pouna» of fat. This would be classed as one of the protein feeds running relaitvely high in this im portant and essestial element. You will observe that it also runs very high in fat, outranking in this particular ele ment and other feed on the market. It Is a very valuable feed, therefore, for combining with corn for the mainten ance of all classes of stock. Peanut meal Is also relatively rich in plant constituents, particularly ni trogen. A ton of it contains about 65.2 pounds of nitrogen, 15.2 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 12 8 pounds of potash. It is not so valuable for fer tilizing purposes as velvet bean meal, which contains about the same amount of nitrogen but a considerably larger proportion of phosphoric acid and pot ash. Peanut meal is such a valuable ani mal food, and it is adapted for use un der such a wide range of conditions that we believe it should always be fed. Os course, this *ls true of velvet beans and cottonseed meal as well, but if the hree were to be used for fertilizers we think the largest return in proportion, by reason of its composition, would come from cottonseed meal, next from velvet bean meal and last from peanut meal. We cite these facts for your in formation and advice and hope they provide the data you wish concerning this Important concentrate. SKIN DIS east: in mules C. K.. Joelton, Tenn., writes: Every spring my mule has some kind of a skin disease. Bumps come on him and he nibs and bites them until they are raw anil bleeding, and then scabs form. He is a fine fat mule in every other respect. Some people have told me that he had bad blood and will always have skin disease. Can you suggest a remedy? It is always difficult to diagnose a disease from a description such as you have given but I judge your mule is suffer ing from a condition known as "sum mer sores.” Technical names for this truoble are dermalite granulosa. or boils. This trouble is witnessed in cer tain animals and generally is met dur ing warm weather. It has been traced to the presence in the outer skin of a parasite which Is very small and known as Filiaria irritans. The sores which this parasite cause are often as small as a millet seed but may become even an inch in diameter. The average size is about that of a pea. While they may occur at any point they are more likely to be found on the neck and the lower part of the limbs. They are frequently observed wherever the har ness presses against the body. These sores cause intense itching and so great ly does it distress the animal that it causes the victim to rub and bite the af fected parts until extensive raw sur faces are often developed. The surface of the sore is covered by a brownish red, soft, pulpv material with cracks or furrows which are filled with serous pus. These sores are very obstinate and resist treatment for months In the sum mer. They often appear to break out after an apparent recovery has been made. As a rule the trouble subsides in winter, probably due to the cold and comparative bloodlessness of the skin. Treatment Is rather difficult. It con sists first in a cool place and showering the surface with cold water. The para sites may be destroyed by rubbing the surface of the wound with iodiform and covering it with a layer of collodion, and repeating the applications every twenty-four hours for fifteen days. It is an advantage to pour ether or chloro form on cotton or wool and apply it to the sores for two minutes before painting them with colodion, sthrd hrd painting them with collodion. Thistreat ment. if persisted in, should prove ef fective. LUCKY STRIKE CIGARETTE You’ll enjoy this real Burley cigarette. It’s full of flavor —just as good as a pipe.
