Delay is dangerous. Remember the bad weather, the railroad con gestion, the shortage of freight cars this past Spring, and profit by that experience. Labor in the factories is scarce, making manufacturing slow and shipping difficult Last season many farmers were disap pointed in not getting their fertilizers in time because they put off ordering. The Railroad Administration has put out a z notice that all car-loads shall be at ca pacity, and by ordering at once delivery can be made promptly. There is a V-C factory, distributing point or V-C dealer near you. This will enable you to secure your Fertilizers promptly—if ordered at once—with only a short haul.

Soule, president Slate Agricultural College, Athens, Ga Hulpiaff the Home Maker In 1SI« me thousand lour hun ted women were enrolled for det** uiie work under the direction of fii : > -reven county home demonstration ,k nis in as many counties. Foi ..•IS the enrollment at the present au is JU.4V6 women. Doubtless .*..-, number will be materially in . eased as the work is being con- .euo in ninety-six counties, caea .my being well organized and un .. r the direction ot a county agent. ::ese women are carrying on deni astrations along the following lines. , ardeiiing. poultry raising, butter n.ui’n-, making of cottage cheese, inning, drying, brining, storing of v< zetaldes and fruits, curing of meats, cookery of food, remodeling of clothing, improvement of sanitary . oi.ditions. and the building and op erating of labor saving devices and home conveniences. The women are organizing into community clubs which meet regularly for the pur pose of studying their individual and local problems. One of the most interesting phases of the work is shown bv the organization of food study classes at which food values and ’the theory of the cookery of f.MKis are studied, following a dem onstration in the cookery of that particular type which is being con stdered at the time. Increased interest is shown this viar in gardening. Thousands of women are growing large plots of soy beans, peanuts and other leg umes to be used as substitutes for meat and wheat. Many homes have perennial gardens for the first time, the products grown being princioal !y granes. asparagus, figs and ber lies. These same women are concen trating their attention upon the -a;sing of poultry, giving more time i t thought to the selection, better r. .'ding, feeding and housing of irds with the result that the farm <o«ks are in many instances for the ist time paving dividends. As a -tilt of increased egg production ■ luh women are being taught the r.tding and packing of eggs, how . preserve them for winter use. For the coming year there will be a .woman assistant who will have di- . t charge of the poultry work with women. Butter manufactured by women working under agents increased fifty ner cent in price during the last vc-ar. due largely to the fact that women on the farms are making n better product than ever befor?. Tn an effort to eliminate waste and rente wholesome substitutes our club women are giving lessons in the iking and utilization of cottage cheese, this work being carried jn tinder the direction of a specialist in cheese making. Tn a number of counties cottage cheese is being used as a substitute for meat on the large plantations where there are many negroes employed, while *n other counties the women and girls are marketing , their cottage chees in the nearb.v towns, sending the products by parcels post. This cheese «= being made from the skim milk which the farmers formerly fed to the calves and pigs. In a few counties notable results E been accomplished through the es? iblishment of curb markets, the r iris and women bringing the prod v nich they have for sale, to SB rr- - .TT-5. ,^crr.-=-—» THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. ATLANTA, GA. FRIDAY, NOYEMBER 29. 101 R the town where they are met by the women who purchase their commodi ties. This has created a desire for the products sold in this way, and has in turn stimulated production. Very gratifying indeed have been the results of the work with wheat Hour substitutes in the matter of bread-making. Tn a number of places food conservation exhibits have been held and recipes given for the dishes exhibited. This has probably done more than any other one thing to ward making these substitutes lop ular. It is not unusual when ad dressing an audience of women on the subject of food production and conservation to find women who have pledged themselves to eat no wheat at all until the next harvest and al ways the vast majority of the wom en present declare they are observ ing wheatless days. This means that they have learned to make many kinds of bread other than plain corn bread. Labor-saving devices, such as tire less cookers, iceles refrigerators, v.heel trays, fly traps, ironing boards, butter-making equipment. sewing screens and devices for drying fruits and vegetables have been installed in many homes. The fact that due to war conditions woman’s sphere has been enlarged with a consequent increase in her duties has tended to promote her interest in the building and operating of these devices which save her time and strength. One of the greatest drawbacks to rural life is the isolation of the people and the lack of social inter course. These women demonstra tors are therefore organized into community clubs which meet at reg ular intervals at the homes of the members. Often entertainments are given for the purpose of making money with which to Improve the school or church or buy some piece of equipment for the club. In this way the county agent is able to give the instructions which she wants these women to have without making visits to each individual home. The following quotations from agents’ re ports give in an interesting way some of the things accomplished at such meetings: "On January 19 I attended a very interesting club meeting at Epworth school. A number of the patrons at this school are dairymen (on a small scale) and are preparing for the boll weevil by keeping cows and garden ing for market. These people are re ceptive and are easily led and we hope to get fine results the coming year through this club. At our last meeting we discussed ‘The Preven tion of Contagious Disease in the Rural School.’ The discussion brought out some fine papers on san itation, the prevention of flies and the importance of screening against them, use of individual drinking cups, and better school lunches. Those who are familiar with the rural schools of the state will realize how much it will mean to have the women of the community center their in terest and activity on its develop ment. One of the newest phases of the club work this year nas been the urban work with city women. While demonstration agents are helping the country women, definite demonstra . tions are now being carried on by ; the women in nine of Georgia’s larg est cities under the direction of spe i lal urban workers. In most of these cities demonstration kitchens are be ing established and these are equip ped so that the work in food study, canning, drying and other important subjects may be carried on at cen tral places. Food exhibits are being lieid and everything possible is be in& done to conserve the essentials. !In one of these towns a thousand boys and girls are cultivating gar dens, the work being supervised by the school teachers working in co operation with the urban agent. In every one of these cities the people of the mill sections are being taught food conservation, cookery ot foods, and their proper combination in the diet. In response to the urgent appeal of the farm women of Georgia, a short course similar to those provided for the boys, girls and men was held in January. Twenty-five women were in attendance and the increased de mand is such that another will be held in August in connection with the girls’ short course. The work with negro women is growing as rapidly as funds will permit. There are now employed twenty-nine negro women in charge of the work in as many counties besides two negro supervisors. The county home demonstration agent supervises the work of the negro county agent and advises her as to the type of the work to be under taken. The following excerpts from negro county agents’ reports will prove in teresting: “On Monday I vi#ted the merhbers of the poultry club at Wynnton; took with me a spray pump and demon strated the effectiveness of spraying coops and poultry houses against parasites; talked about well balanced rations for chicks, use of buttermilk and dry mash, and emphasized value of plenty of fresh water.” “In each community where there are poultry club members, I gave a practical demonstration at the home of some club member. I taught them to cull the flock and select those that would make good winter layers.” “I have held three club meetings this week besides the extra individ ual work with the girls. I am try ing to get those girls that live a long ways from any club center to visit /the nearest, club sometimes. They are delighted to come when they can, but they have to work. Saturday I had a big club meeting and the girls five miles away came. “I have had some trouble trying to get the cans ordered. We did not need a carload in this county and 1 failed to get the adjoining counties of North Carolina to co-operate with me In this matter. It is a big un dertaking to get anything from the railroad, since the distance is about thirty miles over a very rough moun tain road. We have the cans ordered now in crates. The girls are clam oring for them, and if we should fail to get them, I guess I would have to leave the county. The county bank guaranteed the payment and the girls are giving their notes where the father fails to furnish the mon ey. I am pleased that the girls are responding to anything that 1 ask for them. "Week closing June 30th, I visited twenty-one club members, nine home demonstrators and four schools, held five meetings with attendance of 250; traveled 115 miles by auto and 28 miles in buggy; held fifty consulta tions at home and office, wrote twen ty letters, and sent out 150 circular letters and 100 bulletins.” In every case the negroes are re sponding to our training and they are making great strides in learning the fundamental household arts. We : are teaching them only those things I that will enable them to live better t and more comfortably, and to do in I the most efficient manner the duties j and responsibilities that relate to I their sphere in life. We consider I this invaluable work for the state I when we raise the educational status of the negroes and teach them to be I producers rather than consumers. Terating a Badly Congested Udder. J. B. J., Butler Springs, Ala., writes: I have a cow with a calf five months old, and her udder is swollen almost to her foreleg, and the milk from one (eat is bloody. She is sore and stiff in her Light leg and hip. I would like yo.ir advice as to what to do for ber. Your cow is suffering from a very bad congestion of a part of the ud der. It is not unusual for this sort of thing to happen shortly after , calving, but it is rather remarK i able for it to continue for the length of time indicated and you should take very active measures to cor rect and relieve this condition im mediately or it may develop into a chronic stat* and result in the loss of a part of the udder, or possibly in the death of the cow. The first thing to do is to milk out the affected quarters of the udder very thoroughly and completely sev eral times a day. This work should be accomplished in the gentlest man ner possible. Rough handling cr, abusive treatment ot the cow is tc be avoided, as this will only furthei aggravate the condition of which yj' complain. You should then bathe th*, affected parts in hot water, and lor this purpose use the warmest water you can stand to put the hands in. Keen up this fomentation of the uu tier 20 minutes. Do this three times a day. Next put on some kind cf a healing salve. For this purpose camphorated vaseline is very fine indeed. This should be gentlv ruo bed into the udder. Anything like Vick’s ointment will tend to reduce the congestion and inflammation and will prove soothing at the same time. Very vigorous treatment o. the character indicated if promptly eet up and continued should ctt°et idief in the course of a coinpaia tivelv short time. You must first of all get the inflammation and trie soreness out of the affected part and re-establish the normal function or the udder. Remember thnt milK.ng the udder out very clean several times a day will aid you in attaining the ends you hav®- in view. The milk, of course, from the affected part of the udder should not be used. DESTBOYING BOLT. WEEVII, BY POISONING G. M., Nielioll, fia., writes: Whnt do you think of the new method of poison ing boll weevil by the use of paris green mixed with flour nnd dusting on young plants with a bellowa? Do you think that experiments thus far con ducted would warrant undertaking this yraetiee in matting the coming crop t The question of controlling the boll weevil through the -use oi poisons has been tested out to a considerable extent by the United States depart ment ot agriculture. Considerable progress in this respect has been made and the results obtained are rather encouraging. The investiga tions are still to be regarded, how ever, as in their initial stages, and further tests and the careful elab oration of the best methods to fol low will still be necessary before this plan of fighting the boll weevil can be recommended unqualifiedly to the favorable attention of the public, it is true the plan you have outlined has been used; namely, Paris green mixed with flour or other low-grade material has been distributed over the plants by means of a dust spray er when they are moist or wet. It is true, too, that the department be lieves the weevils are more generally killed through drinking the poison which dissolves in the dew than from any other cause incident to this treatment. I believe this plan has made sufficient progress to warrant the farmers of Georgia giving it their careful attention and consider ation and trying it out on a small scale next year in order that they may satisfy themselves of its ef ficiency and determine the best meth ods of practice to follow and so be come familiarized with the process. I have no doubt many persons will be disappointed over the results ob tained while others will be gratified. More depends on the manner m which the work Is done than any thing else. As I understand it, the United States department of agriculture has issued public statements in refer ence to this matter and have some printed information on hand in avail able form. 1 would recommend all farmers, therefore, and those inter ested in combating the boll weevil, to write directly to the secretary of agriculture, Washington, D. C., ask ing for printed information on this subject, or possibly to the bureau ot entomology of the United States de partment of agriculture, Washing ton, D. C., of which Dr. L. O. How ard is chief. Tn this way one may obtain free of cost and at first hand the latest data which the depart ment has in its possession with ref erence to this important subject. MIXING BOUGHAGE FOR WINTER FEEDING J. P. C., Marietta, Ga., writes: I have the following roughage which I wish to feed to dry cattle this winter, after It is cut up in short length by being run through « silage cutter: Fifteen tons alfalfa, 3 tons rye in straw. 1 ton rye straw, 3 tons wheat straw, 1 ton rye straw, 3 tons wheat straw, 5 tons corn shuck, 3 tons shocked corn stalk, 5,000 bundles corn fodder and a let of pen vine hay. 1 would like to know the pro jxirtion in which to feed this. It is paled up and in shape where I can Weigh the propot tion. If situated as you are, we would reserve the fifteen tons of alfalfa to feed in the form of long fodder, as the cattle and other live stock will eat it in this condition very sat isfactorily. The balance of the roughage you mentioned, namely, the straw, shucks, corn stalks and fod der, we would run through a cutting box or a silage cutter. Clip it off in lengths about one-half inch long. Mix it together as thoroughly as possible. This can be accomplished by feeding small amounts of the dif ferent forms of roughage into the cutter at one time. There is not a sufficient difference in the feeding value of the forms of roughage to justify you in our opinion in going to the expense and labor of weighing them out separately. Moreover, if all these types of roughage are mix ed together and fed under reasonably good conditions, the greater part will be eaten up. Our suggestion would be to take this out fodder and mix up a supply the night before for the following day’s feed. IVe would do this by wetting the cut fodder down with water containing a little salt. The water can be distributed over he mass of feed satisfactorily with a watering pot. This moistened mass will be succulent and palatable by morning, if properly mixed and co n pacted. and the various classes of live stock to which it is fed should be permitted to have as much of it as they will eat up clean. We should feed peavine hay and alfalfa in slatted racks, placed under a shel ter so as to protect the hay from the weather. A small supply put in the racks each day will be eaten just as the animals take the notion and will be practically all used to j advantage in the manner indicated. You do not state whether you wish to fatten your cattle or not. In the event you do not, the ration suggested should carry them through in fairly good condition with what they will pick up in the fields from time to time. If you wish to finish these dry cattle and sell for beef, we would advise that you feed in addition a concentrated ration made up one third to one-half cottonseed meal and corn, or one-third each of cotton seed meal, velvet bean meal (hulls included) and corn, or if you prefer you may substitute peanut meal for the cottonseed meal. The initial grain ration should not be over two pounds per day and should be in creased gradually, so that at the end of ninety days the animal will he eat ing six to eight pounds per day of this mixture.

Far be it from me to suggest spite or revengeful feelings, those whose courage and knowledge of war ai rested the mad man and his follow ers. are the ones to give the central powers and the kaiser their punish ment. In some heathen countries wnen a man prongs another the one wrong ed is the one to pass sentence But that is a mistake, and we wiio have helped the soldiers win this tremend ous struggle must now let the allies decide the great questions. Me know that Germany had divided tne world among her royal latnilies. We know that America had been given to the German crown prince, and we know from Belgium’s sorrows what would have been our portion. But law and order should be the ruie of this country and 1 am giving you a prayer that has helped me many times. We know not what *s before us, there will be at least years more of work for our loved ones to do in those stricken coun tries. Many a thousand roll of wire to take up. many a bomb and gten ade to render harmless, many a pit fall to fill up and many a trap to destroy. This will make so many of us show the selfishness or char itv that has been hidden in tne depths of our hearts. As long as there was real fighting going on, aa long as there were women and lit tle children to save from the ruth less enemy many ot us encouraged our loved ones to go. But it s gom* to be the testing time for many a mother, wife or sister. There will rise in so many hearts the that those people are able- to take vn the barbed wire, fill the pits and Remove the traps for themselves that America has done enough.

IN THE DEPTHS OF TROUBLE Dear Sisters of the Household Lage: 1 have read this page with great interest and have received lots of help through the many good let ters and now I come with a great big trouble, it seems to me. I won der if any of the readers have had my trouble and how they overcome it? My husband is very jealous of me, and God in heaven knows he has no cause to be. We have been manied three years and have a sweet little baby. 1 have tried in every' way possible to make him see there is no need of his jealously but my el lorts are fruitless. I have prayed with ever believing faith that my husband may understand me better. I feel that I would be the happiest woman on earth if it just wasn’t for this jealously. I love my husband with a love that only death can sever, and. oh, how happy I wqAild be if I knew he trusted me. I believe he loves me, too. still there is just a little grain of distrust or something, He says sometimes that he does not believe I would be untrue to him, and that he loves me with all his heart, and yet why is he jealous? Can anv one tell me. No one fcnows but the ones who have had my experience how 1 suffer. . . O! you might think it was nothing to lose sleep over, but I tell you sisters it is something that bothers me. I want my husband to love and trust me, I want him to feel that he has a wife as good as tne best of them. I want him to not be always doubting my character, and when he goes out in society h« can hold his head up and say: “My wife is pure. She has no stain on her character." I want him to feel that his little son has a mother that he will never be ashamed to call mother, on. 1 want my husband to trust me. I feel I have a great responsibil ity resting on my shoulders. 1 want to be a good wife and mother. I want my husband and little son to be proud of me and God helping me, I will do my best to make them S °There is one thing I can boast of that some women can’t. I have never told mv husband the I»M'® falsehood, and I am proud that I can eay that truthfully. .t-t-ri Now 1 hope somfe of the sisters will give their opinion or experi ence. I have tried taHung Plain to him and I have even told him I would leave him and everthmg I though would help, but it does no rood I feel that I would never b® satisfied away from him. though sometimes I really b ®Heve he wants me to go.

' British Supremacy of Sea Is Insisted on By Winston Churchill LONDON, Tuesday, Nov. 26. Speaking at Dundee tonight, Winston Spencer Churchill, minister of mu nitions, said that while he would do everything in his power to make a league of nations a practical and powerful reality, it would be no sub stitute for the supremacy of the British fleet. In reference to the freedom of the seas, he said: “From the battle of Trafalgar to the end of the nineteenth century we were absolutely free at sea. We were the only nation whose ports were open to the world, whose mar kets were unrestricted by any tariff and whose coastwise trade was not held as a national monopoly. Even our kith and kin from the United States, whose affection and aid have been so dear to us, never practiced that broad liberal policy which we for a century of unchalleged suprem acy, have shown upon the sea. “Let us be careful not to catch the infection of German ideas at the moment we have defeated the Ger man army. If other nations of the world are content to allow us to keep Hie supremacy of the seas without demur, it will be because we hold it as a trust for all." ■ ■ ” 1 ■■■■■-■ Return Appropriations Unexpended to Treasury WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Unex | pended war appropriations must oe returned to the treasury, Chairman Sherlfey, of the house appropriations committee, announced today. In a letter to cabinet officials ona other heads of the independent de partments, Sherley set out the de termination of congress to take full | command of financial reconstruction , with a view of enforcing a program i of peace time economy. The appropriations committee on | Monday will begin hearings to de termine just how much of the $36.- 000.000,000 war appropriations and authorizations can be recovered. After the hearings a deficiency bill formally revoking appropriations, expected to run into billions and pro viding funds to care for government departments until June 30, the end of the fiscal year, will be framed. trees, many of them loadde with fine apples. I could write at length on this line, but will not this time, but this is a sketch of what you can see traveling through the hills of north Georgia. Viewing the high peaks of those mountains brought back to my mind the happy school days and best of all it was there, in those days, that I found Jesus precious to my sou). Thinking of those days and the loved ones, my heart was filled with joy. I caught myself singing that sweet song, “Lord, Plant My Feet on Higher Ground.” The meeting started at the church nearby and Carrie said, “Mother is resting well, the night is beautiful; let us go over to church.” 1 was glad when they said unto me “let us go to the house of the Lord.” As we entered the church with its beau tiful oaks and broad white yards wt found it full of people, what might be called the one and two-talent kin., but the beauty of it was they were using their talents. Down on theii knees they were praying for lost souls from here to France, and ail over the world, with sweet songs and talks, good enough, it seemed to me, to touch the hardest heart. The young minister. Rev. A. B. Pless, who was helping the pastor, gave us a warn ing that I never shall forget, xt was from the text, “Be not deceived, Goi is not mocked, whatsoever you sow, that ye shall also reap.” Our sins are sure to find us out There, among the loved ones and friendships of my school days, now mothers and grand mothers, the holy spirit was mani fested. It was glory for me. I got my part of the blessing. I was hap py and was willing to give the right hand of fellowship to every child of God on the globe. I want to say “Amen" to Sub scriber’s letter. It was a great help to me. I said the writer was a seed of old father Abraham. Come again with your faith in God, for now is the time we need it. Let us not hide anything for self. I feel like I could live on one meal a day to help our soldier boys. When my dear boy left to go over there I thought I would brace up and part without tears, but that is my failing. I could not re frain. He saw tears falling from mv eyes. They rose up in his. He brush ed them off and said, “Don’t do that mother, it hurts me worse than leav ing home. It must be God’s will and if it is I am willing to go.” Just re ceived the first letter from him. He is cheerful. He said these things must be and he is not worrying and hoping to get back home. I believe in the power of the ever living God when he said, “It’s enough,” the kaiser’s plans wither like the fruit less fig tree. As Igo I will say “God be with you till we meet again,” and forever is the prayer of GRANDMOTHER. Comer, Ga. . POTASH AND COTTON Cotton bolls contain nearly 3 >1 Potash.
