INTERESTING EXHIBIT XT OUR COUNTY FAIR The Domestic Engineering Company, of Dayton, makers of Deleo-Light, " ill liave an exhibit at our county fair that is highly interesting and educational, and is sure to attract much favorable attention. After four years of painstaking and costly experimental work, the Domes tic Engineering Company have devel oped I telco*Light for making electrici ty for every farm. The same engineers, who have made “Delco” the standard system of starting, lighting, and igni tion for automobiles, developed Delco- Light. The cost of production is so low, that electricity is delivered to the rural user for less than he would have to pay if he lived in the city. Gasoline is used for fuel. The plant delivers service twenty-four hours a day, with no more care and attention t han is re quired by the simplest piece of farm machinery. The rural light and power question i* one which has been troubling engi neers all over the country for a number of years. It has been found inmost cases impractical to extend the service of city power houses into the country on account of the large distances over which the current must be carried to supply each individual rural user. It would not. of course, be impossible to do this, but the large investment in poles and heavy wire, and the high voltage that would have to be main tained on such lines —all for the service of a few isolated places—would raise the cost of such service to a prohibitive figure. Engineers realized that with these conditions it would be necessary to pro duce isolated electric light plants, that is, to develop an electric generating plant which could be installed right on the farm or country home, and which would give the same service as that furnished by power houses in the cities. But experiments along these lines brought out great difficulties. The first plants designed for this service consisted of so many parts and were so complicated in design that the costs of manufacture and operation were out of all proportion to the service rendered. Furthermore, these plans required ex pert care and frequent adjustments and repairs. This exhibit will, of course, have its greatest interest for the farmer, but it will also lx* of interest to city people on account of the fact that Delco-Light is suitable for installation in country homes, camps and summer resort cot tages; in fact, wherever electric light and power service is needed and is not supplied by a central station. And whether or not the visitor to the exhib it is in any sense a prospective pur chaser, it will interest him because it represents a really great achievement in improving the living conditions of a large part of the country’s population.

Ga. 9-22-4 t Veterinarians Needed For Georgia Livestock Industry Worth $100,000,000 Requires Protection ANDREW M. SOULE, President Geor gia State College Of Agriculture The aggregate of our live stock in terests is not generally appreciated for the animals now owned on Georgia farms are easily worth SIOOT>OO,OOO. In 1910 the state was credited in the federal census with owning about $78,- 000,000 worth of live stock. Within a period of six years, therefore, there has been an increase in the value of live stock of approximately $22,000,000, and this in the face of the fact that the shipment of a very considerable number of mules to Europe on ac count of the war conditions prevailing there has tended to reduce not only tlie number but the value of our ani mals as well. At the present time there are only about fifty licensed vet erinarians practicing in the state of Georgia. Most of these live in towns and cities, and there are many farmers in the state who are more than one hundred miles from a competent vet erinarian; and even if they could se cure his services in time, it would be at an almost prohibitive cost. It may thus be said with propriety that farm ers living out In the open country would find it extremely difficult to se cure the aid of a competent veterina rian, and that this condition is not likely to be remedied until provision is made for the training of a very consid- erable number of men in the underly ing principles of veterinary medicine. That some provision for instruction of this character should be made is evidenced by the very considerable number of applications received from young men who desire to study veter inary medicine. In view of this fact, the trustees of the Georgia State Col lege of Agriculture have endeavored to meet the situation by authorizing the establishment of the first two years of a degree course in veterinary medicine. This will be open to any young man in Georgia seventeen years cf age and who is able to present four teen units for entrance. It is the earn est hope of the trustees that at the end of two years through the aid of the state they may be able to add the junior work of training veterina rians within the state who are ac quainted with local conditions, in sym pathy with the people living in the open country, and who naturally be lieve in Georgia and its future possi bilities along live stock production.

BERRY, Prof. Forestry Georgia State College Of Agriculture Wherever one travels in the south there is noticed small groups of dead or drying pines. Often in midsum mer the leaves turn yellow and fall, leaving the trees bare. Asa rule this damage is due to the southern pine beetle (Dendroctonus fontalis), a small beetle about a quarter of an inch long, which penetrates the bark and works in the cambium layer. If ; enough beetles are present the tree I is girdled and gradually dies. Following a summer cutting of pine is the damage especially noticed. The beetles are attracted from considera ble distances by the odor of the fresh ly cut wood and attack the surround ing trees. The cutting of even one tree in a group of pine is sufficient to attract the beetles. Usually the work of the beetles in standing timber is confined to the upper portions of the stem: on felled timber, it works on the entire length of the trunk. Damage may be greatly reduced by restricting cutting of pine to the win ter months when both trees and bee tles are in a dormant state. If cut ting in the summer is unavoidable, the slashing should be destroyed by firing. Beetles in infested timber may be destroyed by peeling the bark and burning it or by submerging the logs in water and destroying the slashing.
