DIET AND HEALTH HINTS Br Dl. T. 1. ALLEN Food Specialist MILK DIET FOR EMACIA TION. A reader ask* whether the milk diet Is to be recommend ed for one who Is thirty pounds under weight and how It should be taken. Much depends on the cause of the emaciation and upon the temperement. I have lately had the report ef a case of a man who spent three months at a sanitarium devot ed to the milk cure, who thinks he was seriously injured by It, his nutrition being so deranged that he has not regained his normal condition. Some cannot take sweet milk without Injury. Some organic derangement may exist or a change of work or ecene may be more necessary than special diet. If you are satisfied that the milk diet is appropriate (and emaciation Is one of the indications for it) change one meal at a time. In stead of the usual breakfast, sip a pint of milk holding it In the mouth several seconds, making no change in the other meals. Next morning take t quart for breakfast; the third day take also a quart for the noon meal, making no chango In the supper; the fourth day, take two quart* for the noon meal, the fifth day one quart for supper, the sixth day, five or s<x quarts in all, according to conditions. This method and quantity will suit the average case. The diet should be con tinued from two to six weeks, and the change back should be made gradually. Land of "Damned Professor." It can hardly be doubted that could Lord Palmerston have seen what I have seen of the changes In Germany, he would at least have placed the "damned’' in another part of his fa mous sentence.

Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. Don’t Suffer es Hon can the Southern farmer engage in beef production most economically ansi secure the largest returns in the least time? The answer is, put the animals on the market by the time they are 24 months old, and ratse only those that are of the beef type. A good sire from a pure bred liern will serve for laying the foundation. By crossing with native cows, tho calves produced will lay on flesh more rapidly and economically than the or dinary breeds and will “kill out” bet ter in the hands of the butcher. The heifer calves from these crosses should be kept for breeding purposes. It is better that the beef calves should be born in the winter or early spring and permitted to suckle the cow and go out and learn to graze with them, so that at weaning time they will be able to gather their own food and con tinue to grow without material setback. Of course, this is different practice from that used in connection with the dairy herd. ORGANIZING PIG GLOBS IN GEORGIA James E. Downing, Organizer of Pig Clubs, Georgia State College of Agriculture. How to market his acre of corn on four legs instead of four wheels, is the next step to be taught tho boys of Georgia who are members of the Boys' Corn Clubs. Having learned how to successfully grow an acre of corn, the United States Department of Agri culture in co-operation with the Col lege of Agriculture, at Athens, pro poses to show the boys how this corn can be successfully marketed in the form of live stock. Boys’ Pig Clubs are being organized In a limited number of counties for the year 1914. Plans are being made PECAN ORCHARDING IN GEORGIA IMPORTANT FACIA ADJUNCT By Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. Pecans are becoming more and more prominent as an article of food, and prices will be maintained at a hlgn level for many years to come. Thou sands of acres tn the South Atlantic and Gulf States could be profitably planted to this prince of nuts. Every fanner in the region should set out at least a few trees. They serve well as ornament and shade trees, and be cause of the profit they will bring, should be preferred to many othor classes of trees. Several years must necessarily elapse before a yield is obtained, and proper . care must be maintained, but it Is well worth while. The pecan does best on good, strong soil. Its native home is on rich, al luvial soil of the river bottoms. Trie pecan will, however, grow most any SOME FACES ABOUT GEORGIA CHICKENS L. L. Jones, Prof. Poultry, Ga. State College of Agr. Georgia lias ideal natural conditions for raising poultry. The absence of the long, cold winter of the north, the comparatively simple and inexpensive poultry houses needed, the fact that green food can be grown in the runs almost all the time during the year, to gether with the splendid poultry mar kets of the state, give the Georgia poultryman a decided advantage over their northern neighbors. Georgia ranks sixteenth among poul try states in egg-production, but In the value of eggs, according to the census, indicating clearly that Georgia is not getting as much for its eggs as it ought. One of the ways by which Georgia can get more for its eggs and also more eggs from its hens, is to use pure bred chickens. The pure breds cost no more to keep, they grow fast er, the eggs are more uniform in size and color, they will lay more eggs, the Model Poultry House at College, J If kept on good pastures, free of ticks, these calves will continue to grow uniformly during the summer and fall. During the winter they can we kept on a cereal pasture, or fed siirge, and for grain, can be fed two pounds of cotton seed meal. If straw or ormr roughage is to be hail it will supple ment silage or pasture with good re sults. Pastured through the spring, summer and fall, they should ranch November weighing from GOO to SCO pounds. Pod on silage and cotton seed meal again, they should reach a weight of from 1,000 to 1,200 pounds when two years old. These weights, of course, are to be obtained only by use of beef types of cattle as described, and under goo I management. No section of tiie country affords so inviting a field for beef produc.ion as the South, by reason of tile long grazing season, comparatively chc: p cotton seed meal, cheap production ot ensilage and mild winters. for the boys in these counties to prn cure pure-bred gilt, pigs, at weaning time this spring. Literature bearing on all phases of the hog industry will be sent and they will he instructed how to feed and manage with a view to producing the best *t the least cost. Louisiana was the first state to start pig clubs for boys. At the State Fair in Shreveport, last year, tho sweep stake prizes went to a hog raised by a club boy. Boys’ Pig Clubs were started in Alabama in the spring of 1913. At lIn) Albertville County Fair the following fall, the record pig exhibited, raised by a boy, weighing 350 pounds and was 7 1-2 months old. The plan for Georgia is the same as in the two states mentioned. The boys must agree to follow instruc tions which, among other things, re quire that tiie pig shall he exhibited at tiie county fair. Tf awarded api me it shall be sent to tiie State Fair to compete for the prizes offered there. where in the cotton belt. When plant ed in an orchard, it is well to put them about GO foet apart. Select strong vigorous tree from the nursery, set out in fall or spring, using only budded trees. The land must be kept cultivated. When planting and fertilizing tree* for the first year, use 3 per cent, ni trogen, H po" cent, phosphoric acid and 8 per cent, potash After the first year the proportion ot nitrogen may be reduced; however, the total amount of fertilizer should be increased each year. Some well planted trees have been known to yield nuts in three years, but in ten years a properly cared for orchard should be produc ing from 12 to 35 pounds of nuts fa< h year. At 20 years the trees may pro duce from 100 to 150 pounds each. eggs will be larger and more uniform in size, shape and color, they will breed truer and will sell for more money. The purebred or standard-bred chicken need not be a show bird. In fact the money-making chicken for the average farmer is the standard bred utility fowl. In the second place the seb'<-ti:ig and packing of eggs has much to do with prices that they command. Geor gia farmers are too careless in this respect. One poor egg will affect the price which the other eleven of the dozen can bring. This department of the College of Agriculture lias issued a bullet in on poultry-raising, just such a bulle tin of general information about which many inquiries are being received, it is for free distribution, and it is hoped will he helpful to all classes of poultry-raisers as well as the farmer.
