Most people seem have lost sight of the fact that the wheat crop of the United States was very short in 1917. It was necessary for us to save out of our normal supply of wheat some 1711.000.

U hat we ac ••• inpsishr.d through a voluntary saving 1 a neat Is a monument to the ideallam i the .American people and in days to .•ome will he regarded as one of the aost remarkable things accomplished •> any nation in the history of the war. t is an'evideme of our deep interest in the coiiflu t and of our determination to ’sc” it thn.ugh. It show.s what may be | expected from the people of a great ; democracy in hours of stress and trial j such as the world has undergone and |is now undergoing. It is a wonderful i tribute tv the patriotism and devotion !of our people. It is a national aehieve ; meat which we can treasure and look ; upon with pride for ail time to come. \\ c must not conclude, however, that I iivcause Providence was kind to u.s and ■ blessed us with abundant harvests and .we are row able; to tat wheat on the basis of mi-2<' that there is no longer need for conservation. < >ur surplus of wheat this year has enabled us to sup ply our own people and all those allteu with us with the universal loaf equal in character and quality to one rnaoe from pure wh«-at flour. This was an etui greatly to be desired and we are all appreciative of it. hut we must save a part of the surplus wheat we produced this year as a reserve supply for nex: year. It seldom happens that two great crop® are produced in succes- 1 sion. If they’ are there will be abund ant need for all that we have, and if we should fall short through unfavor able seasonal conditions we would in deed be in a pitiable plight if we ate up afl the reserve of wheat which we produced this year and which should be carried over into nvx't ye.i- as a re serve supply. Therefore, when the food , administration changed its policy with reference to the use of wheat flour it did not mean or intend to take the bridle off or invite people to consume it without limit or stint. It slmplv meant that we could have a reasonable t supply of a much more satisfactory type M>f bread than we used in the previous year owing to the necessity under which we labored of saving such a large amount of wheat flour out of the small ! crop of 1917. All persons are, there fore. expected not only to purchase flour on the 88-20 basis, but preferably i to use a ready-mixed flour. Some complaints have come to the at tention of the food administration on the part of producers of cereals stating that they already have corn meal at home and they do not think they should be asked to purchase flour on the 80-20 basis. They are mistaken In this con ! elusion, hbwever. because the govern ' ment not only asks us to eat wheat on the 80-20 basis, but to consume as large a proportion of corn in the various ! forms suited for human consumption I as we did last year. This is a very im ! portant point to remember and cannot I be emphasized too strongly. We should therefore, eat all the corn we possibly can and all the other cereal substitutes for wheat in as large amounts as we did ' last year. In doing this we will be per ; forming a patriotic and essential duty’ tv.- will not be dlscommodi ii~ or incon veniencing ourselves because the Ameri • can people did not suffer in the saving ot that 750.0«W1,<M10 bushels of wheat which turned tne tide of battle in favor of the allies and enabled them to hold the western front until our own soldiers could get there in sufficient force to insure complete and ultimate victory. There is another phase o's the present 1 situation which should be called to the attention of every citizen. While we have produced a large crop of wheat this year our supplies of fodder grains are smaller than in some years past i There is. for instance. « decrease of between 5,000.000 and 6.000.000 bushels ir the corn crop. Therefore, we face this year as grave problems as we faced last year, because while we shall be able to supply the allies with the bread stuffs they need with comparative ease, it will be very difficult for us to send to them the supplies of fat. pork and i beef which they can only obtain from us. Moreover, we must remember that we shall have to send abroad this year a much larger amount of total foodstuffs than in 1917-1918. During that period we sent to the allies about 10.008,08' ' tons of foodstuffs for man and beast THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATI.ANTA, GA. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1918. This year we must send 16.000,000 [tons. In ottn r words, we have increased oui contract in the matter of feeding the . er cent. We must also re member that in the fiscal year of 1917- 1918, ending July 1. there was relative ly speaaing a small Anun’ican army in ■ tame, auw vte have 2,000,000 men, and I this number is mounting rapid.y each i mouth to the point where it is expected that we shall hate at least three and a 1 half million lighting men in France in IjUW, 1919. ’lnis will probably call »’oi 1 the maintenance of an army ot 5,000,000 I soldiers and workmen across a water lane more than 3,000 miles long. There fore. the need for food conservation is greater than it has ever been, and while we are thaiiKi'ul that it is possible for us to have a bettei type of alignment • than last year we must remember that * economy and food saving are still para amount emblems of patriotism, and that i the fulnhment of our contract with our 'allies and the maintenance ol our armies Is dependent upon the continued small savings of food by the 185,000,900 peo : pie which constitute our nation. It is self-evident from this statement ot th i i that every veatlge ol food which | . an’be used for the maintenance ol man j and beast should be saved and used i economically. 1 There is a great waste at the present ' time going on in our homes which can ;>e materially lessened. We are still seek ng for food which comes from long distances when there is available j a superabundance of perishables all j about us going to waste. bet us re- I member that we must use the food at . hand fust of all. thereby lessening tail way congestion which is now vetw acute. I We must remember that it is tne duty | of the government to its people to at i ;all time.* take care of the war situation i iWe find it necessary to transport an | ever-increasing number of soldiers and supplies therefor. We must rush the. food and the munitions of war to the; seacoast so that the ships may work 4 to the lull limit of their ability. To] do this will inconvenience our people and at times will make difficult their | securing supplies of food of the variety i and type to which they’ have been ac-1 customed. We must simply make the | best of this situation, tor we all have ( now just one object in view, the de-; struction of German autocracy. | There is another impression which | should be corrected. The opinion pre vails that wi are building ships very , rapidly new and there is an easement in tonnage. On its face this statement! appears to be true. As a matter of fact' this is not the case. It is true that; i America nas now assembled some seven ; million tons of shipping and we are en ' gaged in a great program of construc tion and are launching ships with won derful rapidity. On the other hand, every ton of shipping produced in America and even more is required for the transport of our armies and the carrying of supplies of food and ammu nition acroks the wide waste of wateis between New York and Bordeaux. Even yet we are indebted to the British for I the transport of a considerable part of our soldiers, munitions and supplies. It is reported that up to- the Ist of June about 70 per cent of our soldiers have gone over in British bottoms and con voyed by British war ships. To con clude, therefore, that we have solved ail problems with reference to the produc tion. conservation and transportation of men. food and supplies is a njlstake. Let ail of us who are behind the fight ing line remember that we have an eHr ■ s-ential ddty to perform, that it will re quire the patience, self-sacrifice and constant devotion to the greatest cause: on earth, that of freedom for 500.008,-: 000 people, and to see. this war through and win it effectively for democracy. The Use of Lime and Sandy Lard J. W. XV., Warrenton, Ga.. writes: 1 I luive a big acreage of sandy kind which is I nol very fertile, and I want to know if you would suggest the use of lime, and if so, ten* lUii' ii per io re. 1 ran gel tills lime stone for $3.75 per ton plus $1.70 per ton freight. What do you think of this price - / According to our experience and ob servation ground raw limestone rock has been found helpful when applied tt> most types of soil in Georg.a which it was the intention of the farmer to | lay down to some form of leguminous ■ crop. We have had some beneficial re-! suits from applications of lime to land lor cotton and cereals, but the benefits' have been nothing like as marked as when it was used in association with legumes. It has proved to be more val uable for alfalfa than any other single crop, and next in order would probably come crimson clover, cowpeas, velvet beans or other members ot - the legu-| minous family. It is often desirable to plant cereals in the autumn to be used; either for grain or hay. on land which; the following spring is to be devoted,, say, to cowpeas. In the event you have) such an end in view we think it good, practice to apply lime at this season of the year. We would use the raw finely ground rock and apply it 8t the rate of one ton per acre. We think it best to plow the land and get it ready for plant ing, then scatter the lime over the sur face and harrow it in. You may dis tribute the lime from a wagon bed or in any other convenient manner. If one were expecting to use large quantities of l:me we would suggest the purchas ing of a distributor. They used to cost around S4O. but are now proably much higher. This is a simple implement, but well worth its cost to th> man who expects to handle any considerable quantity’ of lime. Sandy lands which are to be culti vated in peanuts or other leguminous trops would be benefited by liming. As you probably know, there are a consid erable percentage of pops in peanuts, and this condition is always worse on soils deficient in lime. In other words,; to remedy this trouble the application of a ton of crushed raw rock will gen erally be found effective. Naturally this material varies in cost according to the degree of fineness, the source from which it is derived, and the manner of mining. We do not think the price sug- | gested is’ excessive if the lime is high grade and relatively finely ground. It is true that many claim that it does not need to be reduced to a fine condition, but we ace disposed to think that its influence on the soil will be more quick ly exerted when rather finely ground, than where the majority’ of the parti-; cles are as large, say. as wheat grains. 1 Reading- Courses in Agriculture H. ft. !>.. Atlanta. Ga.. writes: I would like to know the best way to pursue the ? study of agricu. ..re . without attending college.

It is impossible for me to attend a school at this time, anwd I would like ad- ' vice as to the best methods of home study along this line.

I know of nothing else you can obtain that would give you more general, def inite or specific information at a lower cost than these farmers' bulletins. A complete set of them constitutes one of the most valuable libraries on agricul ture which a man could accumulate. Having done this, I next advise you to buy sets of agricultural publications from time to time. There is a series i of books published by several concerns; on various phitses of agriculture. There are volumes available on soils, fertiliz ers, farm crops, animal diseases, the' feeding and maintenance of animals, problems relating to agricultural eng:-i neering, dairying and poultry raising. A collection of books of this character would be invaluable for home study, i You should also secure the publications issued by the state college of agricui-i ■ ture, which cun be obtained free of cost. H, B. S.. Ixui'lon. Ky., writex: I am j planning on making a trip to Georgia amt other s.inlheru states. I am interested in i farming ami stock raising. 1 would like to grow corn and alfalfa. Please advise me the la's! part of the state in which to locate I for this purpose. Georgia, as you probably know, ha: made wonderful strides in the matter of live stock production in the last few i I years. The number of hogs in this state I has increased by nearly a million heat'i j since 1913. This is due to the fact that ja fairly effective educational campaign for the eradication of cholera/ has been , carried on by our county agents, also the promotion of the campaign led by ; this institution to demonstrate to the | people first of all the necessity and ad ; vantage of improved strains of hogs, and second, the fact that pork could be I made cheaply on a succession of graz-i ling crops which might be made avail-! ! able under wist- i« | also stimulated corn production materi- ’ 'ally and have increased our production: I of velvet beans and peanuts to a won-: I den'ul extent, thereby adding greatly to l the grain rations a*vailable for the main- I I tenance of hogs and other classes of | cattle. The dairy industry has received a con ! siderable impetus and beef production j has made remarkable strides in the last five years. We increased our holdings of beef cattle considerably last year and our dairy industry more than held its own. We can raise any standard breed of live stock in any part of Geor gia. The best grazing areas are probably in the northern part of the state. The cultivation of grazing crops for hogs and cattle can be most extensively and successfully developed in the southern part of Georgia, where the lands are sandier than in the northern part. We can grow a variety of crops for silage purposes very effectively and we can have silage available at those seasons of the year when our grazing lands de not provide any grass. Alfalfa can be grown with considerable success throughout all the northern part of the state II is well adap'ed to our red lands, particularly the clay forma ticn. There is much cheap lard available for the maintenance of live sto< k in south east Georgia. This is cut-over land, anti an effort is now being made to develop it as a live stock producing area. The Flant Food Value of Velvet Beans J. B. S., Newgratle, Ga., writes: I wish I some information regarding velvet bean meal ground up hulls uml all an a fertilizer, What is the analysis of this meal? How does this ineal cnminire with cottonseed meal as a fertilizer Wtfen velvet beans and the hulls cov ering them are ground together a mate rial is obtained which contains a fair amount of the essential plant food con stituents. A number of anlyses indi cate that when the crop is handled in the manner indicated it will be found to contain the equivalent of about 2.64 per cent nitrogen, .8 per cent phospho-1 rtc ac:d and 1.72 per cent potash. Thebe figures indicate that a ton of this ma terial would contain approximately 56.8 pounds nitrogen, 16 pounds phosphoric acid and 34.4 pounds potash. There is every reason to believe that the ferti lizing constituents contained in a ton of velvet bean meal and hulls becomes quickly available. ’ At least, they are usable by plants with sufficient rapid ity to enable any of our average farm crops to take up and elaborate the food applied to the soil through the use of this material in a relatively short time. Velvet bean meal and hulls can, there fore, be used to some advantage for fertilizing purposes at the present time. As carriers of potash they rank high, equaling cottonseed meal in this re spect. They, of course, contain much less phosphoric acid than cottonseed meal and from about one-third to one half as much nitrogen. Velvet bean meal and hulls can be mixed with SOO to 1,000 pounds of acid 1 tyosphate and a fair fertilizing mate rial obtained. We strongly advise that you feed the beans and hulls first to live stock and save the resulting ma nure and reapply it to your land. If you do this you will be able to obtain, first, their use for feeding purposes, which we think at the present price of concentrates would be around S4O or more per ton, and the use of the result ing by-product for fertilizer. Under good management you should be able to re turn to the soil three-fourths to four fifths of the i lant’ food contained in the beans and hulls. Only a compara tively small amount, theres >re, of the fertilizing constituents contained in the original product would be retained by the animals consuming the beans and hulls or lost under good management through the process of handling and re applying to the soil the resulting ma nure. Controling Weevil Damage in Corn Mr. W. T. G., of Quitman. Ga., writes: The farmers of this county are greatly troubled with weevils, which do consider able damage to their corn. We understand that carbon bi-sulphide will kill and pre vent the weevils’ attaca, but the farmers will not even try this remedy, as it is explosive and dangerous. If this is the only remedy would it not be possible to use air-tight metal or wooden bins located away from the regular barns aud thistcliemieal used where explosioi? or fire would do no harm except to the separate places? Please advise us relative to this mutter. The difficulty of keeping corn about which you complain on account of the weevil damage is well known and fully appreciated by me, and it will afford me pleasure to aid in disseminating knowledge calculated to enable the farmers to control In large measure the ravages of the weevil. In so far as I know, there is noth ing comparable in efficiency to carbon bisulphide fdr this purpose, and If cribs of the proper type are constructed and this material used, the weevil damage can be greatly restricted and practi cally eliminated. In the first place, it would be well i for the farmer who ’grows corn and | desires to carry a considerable amount 1 of it over from year to year to erect a crib a short distance from his other buildings. It would be best to put this on concrete piers, and to place on top thereof an inverted galvanized iron pan or something else equally effective for keeping out rats and mice. The frame work of the crib may be constructed ■ of wood and should be covered witn : galvanized iron. The roof may also be I made of this material. Plenty of venti-, latlon and air space should be provided ' for. This will not be a difficult thing) to do as portions of the galvanized iron can be cut away near the top and thei aperture covered with a heavy wire of! small mesh. A crib of this kind need | not cost much. Another type would be to build the framework and cover the outside with wire lath and plaster it with a mix ture of sand and cement. From our point I of view, this will make a more destr-' able and permanent crib than the gal- I vanized iron. If necessary, the roof may! be consrtucted in much the same way I as the sides. The objection to building most cribs on the ground is the fact | that moisture will be absorbed from i the bottom and may cause a part of the j com to decay. If proper air space is ! provided under the floor, however, this 1 difficulty can be obviated and the struc ture may be built relatively close to the j ground which, of course, is a marked advantage. With cribs of this kind avail able for general use on the farm, the use of carbon bisulphide for the de- WHAT THE HOLY BIBLE DECLARES AGAINST LIQUOR!

For nearly wo centuries hatred and antagonisms struction of the weevil becomes com paratively simple. As soon as the crib is filled, the grain should be treated as follows; Use one pound of carbon bisulphide to one ton of gram or for every 1.000 cubic feet of space to be treated. The treatment ! should be repeated every six weeks. ' Where grain is stored in boxes or bins covering with a rarpaulin or with bags and blankets will be found a great ad- ' varttage. Where the treatment is to be; performed in semi-open structures from one and a half to two pounds of the bi sulphide should be used to each ton of grain. Put the bisulphide in open dishes and place on top of the grain to be treated. As it is much heavier than air it quickly sinks down through the mass and effectively destroys the weevil and other insects which may infest the grain. The grain should be subjected to the treatment for from twenty-four to thirty-six hours. The use of the carbon bisulphide does not harm the I grain for milling purposes. ’ In using the bisulphide it is important i to remember that it will not Injure the ! hands or the clothing and that the ! odor disappears in the course of time. I : but owing to its inflammability, it must [ not be used in the presenc of an open light. It is also best where it is pur chased in considerable quantity to store it in an outbuilding, and while it may be used with perfect safety in stables ; and barns, provided lights are kept ; away from it, it would be better if the farmer would erect some such struc ture as has been suggested for the ! preservation of his grain and thus elimi- I nate any possible danger of injury to his stock and buildings. If the farmers of Georgia will use ! carbon bisulphide properly and per ' sistently, they can reduce weevil dam i age of grain to a minimum, and up to I the present time it is the only effective remedy which it is worth while advising I them to use.

A Lovely Letter From Aged Christian Dear Mrs. Felton: You are four miles .(years) ahead of me In the way to Glory Land, but I may take a near cut and get there first. If I do I will stand and wait inside the gate to let Mother Felton in. I want to get there first to escort you up to the throne, see Him smile, and hear those sw’eet words, "Well done, good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joys of thy Lord.” Then with a rain bow- of angels fluttering over you, I want to escort you around to your own mansion, in glory, "not made with hands”—and see you In your maiden purity’, clothed in Christ’s righteous ness—glorfy! Then let’s stroll down i the golden streets to God’s pantry ' and enjoy some of the fruits plucked | from the "tree of life"—celestial fruits ; that never fail, on trees immortal grow. 1 and rocks and hills with milk and honey , flow. No night there, no pain, no death! j Over all that wide, extended plain, I shines one eternal day, where God, the ! Son. forever reigns, and drives the night away. There is so much sick i ness, sorrow, pain and death here in this world up there, no chilling winds, nor poisonous breath can reach that blissful shore, where sickness, sorrow, pain and death are felt and feared no more. Oh! when shall we reach that happy place, and be forever blessed, when shall we see our Father’s face and in His bosom rest? We can make Heaven’s mansions ring with • praise to our Father and King. And when we’ve been there ten thou sand years, bright, shining as the sun, we’ve no less days to sing His praise than when first begun. But I must close, as I am old and weary. My life is a wearysome jour ney. I am sick of the dust and the heat, the rays of the sun beat upon the briars are wounding my feet, but the city to which I am going will more than all my trials repay. All the toils of the road will seem nothing when we get to the end of the way. Glory to our God! W. H. D. Henderson, N. C. Explosion on American Submarine Kills Ensign WASHINGTON, Oct.
