POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED IN
THE MESIAL OF LAND
Requests are frequently received
• seeking Information about the rental
M o.nd What should be considered
fb the terms of a contract of this
’ How should the paper bo
drawn up? What is the proper basis
of dividing duties, responsibilities
and profits? It is easy to see that a
very large number of questions arise
over matters of this character. Many
of them are more or less of a techni
cal nature and. therefore, difficult to
answer satisfactorily. Many misun
derstandings relative to the rental of
lands could be avoided if all the prob
lems connected with a task of this
character were given wise and proper
consideration at the time the agree
ment is entered into. For the in
fonnatlcn of our farmers there is
presented below in condensed form
some of the prime factors which
should be taken into consideration in
a specialist in farm management,
who has given some years to the
careful and detailed study of the
rental proposition. The individual In
5 question is C. E. Allred, who is as
sociated with the extension division
of the University of Tennessee at
* Knoxville. We recommend that our
readers study the summary presented
POTASH VERSUS “BOLLY”
COTTON
I
So much “Bolly” cotton appeared last year that
the Government Committee issued instructions that
this inferior staple would not be accepted on Gov
ernment contracts.
The percentage of “Bolly” cotton this year is
greater than last Technically this cotton cannot
be tendered on future contracts.
The lack of Potash causes “Bolly” cotton. Bolls
do not mature before frost, and frequently cannot
mature at all without this essential element The
lint in such bolls is short and of inferior quality.
Potash fertilizer will increase the number of bolls,
enable the bolls and lint to fully develop instead
of being stunted as is the case in “Bolly” cotton.
Demand Potash fertilizers. Write todav for

below very carefully and then take
the pains and trouble to cut this
statement out and preserve it in a
scrap book so as to make it available
for easy reference. It will be found
invaluable for this purpose, and will
provide landowners and operators
with information that the often
wish to have conveniently at hand.
I—A good description of the land
that is leased, with the exact location,
and the amount.
2—Dates of beginning and end ot
the term of rental.
3—The plan of rental. Where the
farm is well organized the crop ro
tation for the farm should be out
lined.
4 A clause to prevent the remov
al from the farm of straws, stovers,
roughage and manure.
5 The amount of fall-sown grain
that may 1* sown during the fall
preceding the termination of the
lease. Otherwise the tenant might
put most of the farm into fall-sown
grain and thus make the farm a very
undesirable proposition for a tenant
the following year.
6 A clause preventing the pastur
ing. stabling, or boarding of stock
for outside parties. Otherwise the
tenant could stable and feed stock
for other parties and claim that he
was only stabling them, and without

cost. It might be hard to prove to
the contrary.
7. What each is to furnish, and
the taxes each is to pay. Without
such statement the tenter could com
pel the owner to pay all taxes on
both real and personal property, in
cluding the nersonal property of the
renter.
8. If the renter is to haul ma
terials from town for repairs and
improvements on the farm it should
be so stated.
■9. That the renter shall deliver
all produce and live stock sold, in
cluding the owner's share.
10. A statement as to how the
renter shall care for the live stock
and property of the owner.
11. No vegetable matter grown or
brought on to the farm shall be
burned, nor shall be spread on the
farm as manure.
12. What is to be furnished joint
ly by both parties, including the
hiring of pasture and the purchase
of feeds.
13. If the renter’s horses are to be
fed from the undivided feed, they
cannot, during the time that they
ore being fed. be employed to work
off the farm. Otherwise, the renter
could feed his horses from the un
divided feed and use them for team
work off the farm.
14. The number of horses that
may be used in working the farm
should he limited. Also the lower
limit for the ages of the work horses
should be passed. Without these
statements a man could purchase anil
sell colts, or keep a larger number
of horses than is necessary for the
working of the farm and deal in
horses. Colts could be purchased,
and then grown on the farm, and
sold with profit to the tenant and
without the farm-owner sharing in
increased returns from such growth.
Colts, as well as other stock, where
the share basis is the half-share
basis, should be owned in common by
both parties.
15. A method of appraisal of feeds
on the farm at the time of the begin
ning of the lease ana also at the ter
mination of it.
16. Any special privileges to be
granted to the tenant. Such as
where he may obtain fuel, whether
he is to have milk and eggs, etc.
17. Any special privileges for the
owner. _
IS. The method of settlement for
all sales. It is the best that set
tlement be made at the end of each
calendar month for all sales and pur
chases made and paid for during
that month.
19. A clause regarding the work
manship of the renter and regarding
the destruction of noxious weeds.
20. All manure in the stables and
yards shall be cleaned out by the
middle of February and again by the
first of May of each year, and >n
case this is not done, the renter shall
pay SSO as penalty for such neg
lect.
21. A clause regarding the sur
render of the farm at the termination
of the lease, with a penalty of $lO
for each day of non-surrender.
22. The owner should reserve the
right of entry to the premises for
the purpose of viewing the same and
making repairs, and also for plowing
the land on which no crop is grow
ing, during the fall and winter pre
ceding the termination of the lease.
23. The renter should be rewarded
for all permanent improvements
made on the farm that have been
made by and with the consent of the
owner, provided he furnish the owner
a bill of the same at the time the
work is done. Payment for the im
provements should be made on the
basis that five years' use of them
by the renter would compensate him
for the work of making them. If he
has had but one year’s use of the
Improvements made he should re
ceive four-fifths of the value of the
bil rendered: three-fifths if he has
had two years’ use of the improve
ments, etc. Ruch clauses should ap
ply to the application of ground
lime and phosphate rock, building
of fences, etc.
24. If from neglect or from any
other cause the renter shall fail to
put in or take off crops the owner
mav enter and perform such work,
and after allowing for the cost of
same, the remainder shall be divided
aceoidnig to the terms of the lease.
25. The division of proceeds from
the farm s.iould be based upon the
ratio of the actual money value of
what landowner and tenant puts into
the enterprise, allowing the landown
er a lair interest rate on his invest
ment, and the tenant a fair wage (or
his work and fair interest on any in
vestment. For example, if 5 per cent
of the value of the farm and 10 per
cent of the value of the equipment
owned by the landowner amounts to
$950, anil if the labor furnished by
the tenant is worth s4s"' and the in
terest on his equipment $240, totaling
$690, then the landowner should re
ceive 58 per cent of the net pro
ceeds and the tenant 42 per cent.
26. A clause making a lien on
crops, Jive stock and other personal
property on the farm, owned by the
renter, for the purpose of insuring
payment of all moneys due the farm
owner. Such a clause would work no
hardship on the renter unless for
some cause or other he was not in
tending to play fair with the fa»m
owner.
27. Neither party has the right
to bind the other by contract out
side the scope of the agreement; and
the contract .shall not be interpret
ed as constituting a partnership.
In the above suggestions there is
nothing that will interfere with the
lawful operations of the tenant, and
at the same time if the suggestions
are followed out they provide pro
tection against many worrying an
noyances caused by a troublesome
tenant.
HOW TO HANDLE BUTABAGA
TUB NIPS
W. L. C.. Suwnnee. (In., writes: I
have received a lot of valuable advice
from the agricultural columns. I would
like all the information you can give
me on how to take care of rutabaga
turnips for winter use. I planted them
the 15th of July, and wish to store
them so as not to lose any.
Our plan of handling rutabaga tur
nips has been as follows: Simply let
them stay in the field and pick them
as needed for use. We have been
using them for some time past and
they are improving in quality, flavor
and sweetness every day. Rutabaga
is essentially a cold climate crop. It
will remain out all winter even in as
cold climates as Canada and Scotland.
It really improves after frost falls
upon it. If one Is growing this crop
commercially, of course, the pro
cedure may be somewhat different,
but even then we would gather them
from the field as needed for shipment,
as they are in finer and fr<*her condi
tion when so handled and will keep
better. Where an attempt is made to
harvest this crop they should be
gathered when as nearly mature as
possible by pulling them out of the
ground by the tops. The tops should
then be cut off clean about half an
inch above the crown. The dirt
should he brushed off and the turnips
carefully placed in baskets or boxes,
preferably the latter. A box such
as apples are shipped in is satisfac
tory. These boxes may then be placed
in outbuilding or anywhere where
they will be cool. This is very im
portant. Putting them in a warm
cellar or under the house in a hot
room will result in their shriveling
up and possibly their frequent decay.
Whenever stored provision should be
made to cover them on excentionnHy
cold nights, or during a sudden freeze
or when the temperature might go
down occasionally below freezing and
remain so for several days. A good
way to preserve them in the ground
in case of a freeze of this character
is to throw a little sand over them.
Rutabagas, of 'course, mav be taken
up and put in a pit, which is fire
pared and handled very much as a
bank for sweet potatoes. Most peo
ple make the mistake of trying to
keep this crop too hot, however,
thereby causing its decay. We prefer
to handle it for household use here
in Georgia in the manner indicated.
A Good Reclne for Curing Meats
E. F. P.. Vienna. Ga.. writes: I
would like to know the best way of
curing meat. 1 am anxious to try the
sugar cure method. Row long should
meat hang before sacking? We have
ten acres of ground nnd have set out
125 peenn trees and 125 peach trees. I
nni anxious to set out about 100 apples
if advisable. Do you think they will
do well in our climate?
There is no reason why you should
not cure meat by the brine method
safely and acceptably. Before you
undertake the curing it is very nec
essary that the meat be thoroughly
cooled. If the weather is warm when
the animals are slaughtered the meat
should be chilled at once to avoid
its becoming tainted. Under such
circumstances it may often be neces
sary to use ice. and when this is
done it is generally best to break it
up in pieces, weighing about a pound
and pack it closely between the cuts
of meat. When the meat is thorough
ly cooled to the bone it is then ready
to place in cure.
Brine for curing should be made
as follows: First, secure a receptacle
large enough to contain the meat to
be cured. A hardwood barrel or hogs
head thoroughly cleansed with boil
ing water will do very well for this
purpose, though Large earthen jars
would be more desirable. The larger
cuts should be packed at the bot
tom. For each 100 pounds of meat
use 8 pounds of salt, 4 pounds of
brown sugar or molasses, and 3
pounds of salt peter. Put these ma
terials in four gallons of water that
has been thoroughly cleansed with
boiling water will do very well for
this purpose, though large earthen

jars would be more desirable. The
larger cuts should be packed at the
bottom. For each 100 pounds of
meat use 8 pounds of salt, 4 pounds
of brown sugar or molasses, and 3
pounds of saltpeter. Put these ma
terials in four gallons of water that
has been thoroughly boiled and cool
ed. Cover the meat with this brine
and place a weight on top to keep
all the pieces covered. Allow the
meat to cure in the brim for ten
days to two weeks Then take it
out and reverse the order in wtu.h
the pieces were placed in the rcep
tacle. If the brine becomes reduced
by the heat add more as desired.
Should the brine become stringy or
sour remove the meat at once, re
boil the brine and cool, or replace
by fresh brine. It generally takes
about 30 to 40 days to cure bacon
strips and hams 45 to 60 days. After
removing from the brine, if a mild
cure is desired, allow the meat to lie
for several hours in fresh water
which has been thoroughly boiled and
cooled. The meat is then ready to
smoke.
Smoking is best accomplished
through the use of hard wood, es
pecially hickory. Liquid smoke is
not desirable As soon as the meat
has been thoroughly smoked it may
properly be wrapped in paper and
burlap.
The dry curing process you are
no doubt familiar with. Dry curing
meat is considered by many to be
the most desirable method of curing
and handling pork for human con
sumption.
With regard to planting fruit trees
in your section of the state, I am
disposed to think that apples would
not prove as satisfactory commer
daily as farther north. Probably you
can grow figs to good advantage.
There is a good demand for preserved
figs, and they, as you know, make
one of the most desirable of the
preserved fruits we produce in Geor
gia. The hardier varieties should
certainly do well in your section ana
escape without a considerable amount
of winter killing, which befalls this
crop almost every winter farther
north.
THIS HOG NEEDS A MORE
VARIED RATION
J. C. A., Woolsey, Ga., writes: I
have a hog in fine condition to kill,
but about a week ago I found her down
in her hind parts. She can only stand
on her fore legs, and although she eats
heartily she gets no better. Would it
be safe to kill the hog in this condition
and eat the meat?
I judge from the description con
tained in your letter that there is
nothing the matter with your hog
except the fact that she has been
confined for some time in a small or
close pen and fed on an improperly
balanced ration, ft is not unusual
for hogs which are fattened under
such conditions to break down in the
hind quarters. This is due to the
lact that the bones become so weak
that they are unable to support the
carcass. This condition arises, as a
rule, from confining hogs either in
very small pens with dirt floors, or
in pens with wood floors- Bones, as
you understand, contain mineral
salts in considerable quantity, and
when hogs are confined and so pre
vented from gathering part of their
food off the range, or when they are
ted say on a ration of eoi’n alone
they do not secure enough mineral
matter to keep the bones in proper
condition. Coin, as you doubtless
know, is low not only in ash matter
but in protein as well. In handling
this hog, therefore, you should pro
ceed at once to provide her with all
the mineral matter she needs. Vari
ous mixtures may be used for this
purpose, but there is probably noth
ing better than a mixture of one
bushel of charcoal, one bushel of
wood ashes, 8 pounds air slacked
lime, 8 pounds common salt, 4
pounds sulphur and 2 pounds of pul
verized copperas. These materials
should then be placed in a box in
the open pen where the hog is con
fined. The anima] will eat such
amounts of this mineral matter as
the system may require.
In addition you should discontin
ue the use of corn alone. If you feed
it use only one-third corn along say
with tv.’o-thirds shorts, middlings or
shipped stuff. Also see that the
slops, if any are fed, are free from
soap powders and broken dishes or
glass. This is a very important mat
ter and should receive your immedi
ate attention and consideration.
By following out the suggestions
given above you should be able to
effect a cure in a short time. In
any event, if that is all that is the
matter with your hog there is no
reason why you should not slaughter
and cure it for meat, as the animal
is in no wise diseased if it is simply
broken down in the hind quarters by
reason of improper nourishment of
the bony framework.
Cotton Suitable for 801 l Weevil Ter
ritory
A. I’., Wray, Ga., write: What i your
opinion on planting Brown’ No. 1 cot
ton where there I boll weevil? If you
think ome other variety would give bet
ter reult, I would like to have the
name.
Brown’s No. 1 cotton has been
tested in our demonstration plats
for a number of years past. It has
always made a fairly good record,
though not making as high yields
as other varieties which we have
tested at different times. We are
disposed to think that Brown’s No.
2 has probably made a better record
all in all than Brown’s No. 1, and,
therefore, w'e would favor its plant
ing on that account over No. 1.
Os all the varieties of cotton we have
tested for growth under boll weevil
conditions we are disposed to think
that they will stand in about the
following order as to earliness and
general satisfaction for growth un
der such conditions: College No. 1.
Trice. Sunbeam, Cleveland’s Big
8011, Hooper's, Caldw-ell, Toole,
Cook’s. Poulnot, Dixie. Brown’s No.
2. and Culpepper. These varieties
will give varying results under dif
ferent soil and climatic conditions,
but are all good standard sorts of
cotton. Under one man's handling
Culpepper may make as good a yield

Timely Topics
CONDUCTED BY MBS. W. H. FELTON
Supers title ma
As I looked up in the sky, this
late afternoon, 1 saw the young new
moon hanging in the sky, one point
of the crescent a little lower than
the other. Instinctively I thought,
•‘this will be a wet moon, It will spill
water.” Then I thought, “I ougnt
to have a little money in my pocket
to make the good luck come.”
Somewhere and some time in the
long ago, I was told these things, and
1 am sure to remember them. The
old darky servants always kept such
things in mind. One said to me,
’’Why, missus, it does bring good
luck; you watch It.” I replied,
"What’s to be done when you have
no money?" “Oh. I fool it by shak
ing my keys at it.”
There are lots and lots of people
who put off beginning a job if it is
Friday. You will hear, “Get your
things together; it’s bad luck to go
back after you have started." To
break a looking glass is a sign of
death in the family. For a bird to
fly in and fly out of the house means
sudden accident—meybe death. To
put your stocking on wrong side out.
bj- accident brings good luck. A
popping fire spells trouble, etc., etc.
Away back, maybe in benighted
Africa,’ some of these things had
their origin, but ghost stories and
such like started with white folks
as well as with negroes.
Nevertheless, these things will
cling to vou, or we would not re
member them instantly, as for in
stance my recollection of what the
new moon might do. if there was no
money in my pocket, and the moon

Mrs. W. H. Felton.
My Dear Mrs. Felton: I know
you will not be surprised to get a
letter from a stranger, as I am sure
you receive many letters from people
that you never have seen. But we
all love you and think you are such
a dear, good lady and want to tell
you and not just think about you
and never tell you how we appre
ciate your Timely Topics. It’s re
markable that a lady of your age
can write so brilliantly. I always
look for the dear little picture of
you in The Journal for the first thing
when we get the paper, though the
last few papers have omitted the
picture, though I find Topics all right
and you can’t imagine how 1 enjoy
reading them.
Your reproduction of the Civil
war times was very interesting to
me. I was seven years old at out
break of that war and remember
something about the hardships of
that war. Everything you write is so
interesting to me. I am so glad that
the German war is over and that we
have hopes of peace. I have a very
dear nephew in France and hope he
will get back to his native country'.
I live on a farm near the Catawba
river, a mile from Oxford’s Ford. I
am inclosing a self-addressed en
velope for a few of the althea seed,
if I am not too late. If I’m. too late
I thank you very much anyhow for
your very graciousness. I hope you
will have a nice Christmas, and if I
am here I’ll be wishing you a merry
Christmas and everything good. May
God bless you. Yours sincerely,

A NEW TEXT FOR A NEW SER
MON
It is hard to get ahead of a preach
er who delights in sensations. I
have been informed that a preacher
is entertaining big congregations by
explaining what it meant when the
world war came to an end in the
eleventh month and the eleventh day
and the eleventh hour in the day.
Germany surrendered in November,
on the eleventh day and at eleven
o'clock in the morning. The preach
er told the audience to go home, get
their Bibles, find the Book of First
Kings, turn to the eleventh chapter
and the eleventh verse and read what
they would find.
When I heard It I hunted up First
Kings, eleventh chapter and eleventh
verse, and this is what I read:
“Whereupon, the Lord said unto Sol
omon, ’Forasmuch as this is done of
thee, and thou hast not kept my
covenant and my statutes, which I
have commanded thee, I Will surely
send the kingdom from thee and give
it to thy servant.’ ”
It is a long jump from King Solo
mon to William —lately the kaiser—
but it certainly did take a powerful
bright preacher to find out any close
analogy between Solomon and Wil
liam —with the number eleven play
ing trumps in the game—between the
two.
But it does look like the elevens
are powerful in football games. Why
not witli thrones and crowns? May
be there will be some more kings
knocked over before the war game is
ended!
A Blessing for Grandmother
Evans, Ga., Nov. 28, 1918.
Dear Grandmother Felton: Today
is Thanksgiving day and I am sure
we all have a lot to be thankful for.
We have five boys and one little girl:
two of the boys were in this last call,
but thanks to our Heavenly Father,
I hope it’s all over. Bless your
soul and body! I do love to read
your writings. I always read it
first, and I did want some of your
flower seed very bad, but it seemed
like Imposing on you, so many send
ing in after them, but I saw in the
last Journal that you had some more
and I told my little girl I would
write you and ask you to please send
us a few. Now, if It be that vre
are too late, don’t trouble your dear
mind about it. We can wait for an
other time. I do wish I could see
yov and talk with you, as I am not
much on writing. I do the best I
can. So may God bless the Semi-
Weekly’s grandmother always. With
best wishes for your happiness.
Yours sincerely,

Australians Planning
Air Route to London
LONDON, Dec. 11.—(British Wire
less Service.) —Australian commer
cial and financial interests are mak
ing plans to connect Australia with
London and other parts of the Brit
ish empire by commercial airplanes.
A company already has been formed
to finance the survey of an aerial
route to London byway of Sydney
and Port Said.
The possibilities of flying from
the commercial point of view are
dealt with in a report issued by the
civil aerial transport committee. Teh
report foreshadows the time when
the airplane will compete with the
telegraph, the postofiice and the rail
ways. It is declared that nearly five
hours could be saved between Lon
don and Paris, one day between Lon
don and Turin, twelve days between
London and Calcutta and thirteen
days between London and Johannes
burg, South Africa.
The committee recommends the Im
mediate formation of a special branch
of the government air service com
mencing on a "modest scale under
the air ministry to insure that all
preliminary action will be taken
without delay.”
