Wiley Butts County Farm Agent With unusually low prices for seed of vetch, crimson clover and sweet clover together with very fine seasons we have had lately putting the ground in good shape for germinating the seeds sown, it would be hard to imagine a more favorable time to get started with some of these winter soil building and grazing crops. It is not a difficult matter to get them started to growing if only the work of seeding is done in the right way. the crops mentioned above like to iggow on land that is firm but 'itch KILLED In Thirty Minutes With PAR-A-CIT-I-CIDE Buy no Substitute, 50c at Drug Stores Give Next Year** Crops A Good Start Let the Fordson Tractor help you to give next year’s crops a good start.

All le gume seeds must be inoculated be fore being sown on land that has never grown the crop. Commercial inoculation will do but soil taken from a field which has grown the crop successfully furnishes the best inoculation. Moisten seed with syrupy water to make then sticky and then sprinkle on the inoculated soil. Soil from a vetch field or where English peas have grown will inocu late vetch seed. Soil from an alfalfa, bur clover or sweet clover patch will inoculate sweet clover. Crimson clover should be inoculated from a field where it grew last year. There ar e a number of wild clover grow ing here that will inoculate it suc cessfully but there is some risk in getting the wrong variety. There is such complaint in some sections from root rot or wilt of pepper. In many fields th e loss is THE JACKSON PROGRESS-A ROUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA. rather serious. This is a disease similar to the familiar wilt of to matoes. It is greatly increased some time* by the use of stable manure. While there is no specific cure for it live has proven to be very bene ficial. Also it has been found bene ficial to build up the soil by turn ing under vegetable matter in stead of using manure. This being tru e those who have been bothered with pepper wilting in their fields heretofore should certainly take ad vantage of the present favorable conditions and make use of lime and cover crops this winter to prevent a recurrence of the loss next summer. A half ton of good pepper increas 0 would take care of all the expense of liming and seeding a good cover crop. What about a Butts County Day at the Southeastern Fair this 1 year? It runs rom Oct. 4 to the 11th which includes two Saturdays. Wouldn’t it be fin e to spend one of them there with the boys and girls who are doing club work here that they may see the very best of hogs, cattle, chickens, corn, etc. a iggeat deal of which has been produced by club members in other counties of the state. I believe it would be very stimulating to both th e children and their parent'*. While the recent heavy rains have injured the open cotton in the fields considerably, also the corn in the shock and the hay that has been cut, yet it as brought so many good opportunities that there should be no room for complaining about the damage done. Think of the wonderful help to late crops of feed, of the splendid gardens and turnip patches that can now be had if folks only try; of the fine opportunity f.or sowing early grain and grazing crops that can be put in at once greatly offsetting the (general shortage of feeds; of the fine stands of bur clover already out of the ground promising re freshing green for live stock and poultry; of th e wonderful benefit to pastures during the shortage while before frost. Truly if we busy ourselves in making th e most of these opportunities we wont have time to think of the damag e done.

Jackson, Georgia its story of increased returns from a large number of crops, but experi ence has shown that it gives best results when applied in the fall pre ceding a leguminous crop. “A majority of legumes are un favorably affected by a sour condi tion of the soil,” says L. V. Davis, supervisor of fertilizer investigations of the State College of Agriculture, “and will respond readily to an application of lime. With a definite rotation such as corn, cotton and small grain followed by a legumin ous crop is sown. “Lime should be applier after the land is plowed, else there is a possi bility of it being buried too deep. Too, in applying in this way it is well mixed with the soil and the full measure of its effects are realized.’’ For Georgia conditions it is ad visable to apply from 2,000 to 3,- 000 pounds of ground limestone per acre every three to five year?. MORE AUTOMOBILE TAGS ISSUED FOR THE YEAR EXPECT TOTAL REGISTRATION TO REACH 200,000 IN 1924. SALES TO DATE UP TO 199,- 000, IS CLAIM 1 Atlanta, Ga.—lt i estimated by officials of th e Secretary of State’9 office that the number of license tags issued to Georgia automobile owners during 1924 will run to around the 200,000 mark, showing an increase of about 27,000 over 1923. According to Chief Clerk H. G. Harris, to date there have been 199,000 automobile license tal.zs is sued by the Motor Vehicle Depart ment, which is a branch of the Secretary of State’s office. Of this number 175,000 hav e been issued; to passenger cars, and 24,000 to j motor trucks. If the rate that the license tags have heretofore been issued for the past several weeks is maintained, it is th e opinion of Mr. Harris that the total figure for the year will go even beyond the, two hundred thousand mark. During 1923 there was a total of 173,794 tags issued by that de partment, and compared with the tags issued to date, shows an in crease this year of 26,794. The increase in the purchase of automobiles is believed to result j from the good crop conditions that Georgia has experienced, as well as the result of good roau ouilding. according tq the officials. The above figures, however, do not include a total of 1,011 motor cycle license tags which bee* issued during the year.
