LEARNING 10 6EI SOIL FERTILITY
WITHOUT HAVING TO BUY IT
President Andrew M. Soule, State College of Agriculture.
Perhaps ’.he greatest fundamental
mistake of the Georgia farmer Is his
dependence upon the fertilizer dealer
for replacing the soil fertility which
each crop takes from his land.
Instead of putting out so much for
fertilizer, he should be getting at least
a part of the necessary plant food
through a proper crop rotation sys
tem and the growing of live stock.
:The legume and the cow mean soil
fertility without cost. On a great many
Georgia farms agriculture will be a
stranger to success until these two
forces are put to work.
So devoted to cotton growing have
been thousands of farmers of Georgia
'and so limited their knowledge of how
(to grow other crops or to engage in
(profitable animal industry, that it is
inecessary to get considerable Infor
mation from a reliable source before
they begin.
It is for the purpose of assisting
such farmers into new lines of agri
cultural activity that the agricultural
short course is provided at the State
College of Agriculture, for those who
HOG CHOLERA SERUM
PRICE REDUCED
Dr. H. M. Burson, Veterinarian.
Hog cholera appears to be rather se
vere in many counties this year, as in
dicated by inquiries received by the
Veterinary Department; however, the
losses reported are not nearly so se
'rious as in other years. Many farmers
are protecting their herds by means of
hog cholera serum and many reports
show excellent results.
Nearly 160,000 cubic centimeters of
serum have been distributed this year,
sufficient for the treatment of 10,000
fifty-pound hogs.
Since July Ist all serum has been
distributed through the office of the
state veterinarian, capitol building, At
lanta, as required by the act appropri
ating funds for serum manufacture.
The price of serum reduced October
17st from 2c per c. c. to 1 l-2c per c. c.,
making the cost of treatment so low
that no swine owner can afford not
to have his hogs protected if cholera
exists within a radius of several miles
of his herd. This price will obtain as
long as sufficient demand makes it
.economical to manufacture at present
,price.
Information concerning cholera and
the use of serum us a preventive is
contained in a bulletin on ‘‘Hog Chol
era and Preventive Serum,” used by
the college, free for the asking.

have not the time or the means to
take a longer course.
From January 6th to 16th, inclusive
of the year 1914, special time and ef
fort is to be devoted to this class of
farmers. The best service which the
College can render to impart useful
information and to map out a pro
gram for new farm activities, will then
be given. Lessons which will be taught
by lectures will be illustrated by the
farm. The College both teaches and
practices and only such as has been
proven to be good in practice is
taught.
Not only is it important to get soil
fertility without buying it, but it is
important to know how to keep it
when it has been obtained. The value
of the winter cover crop, deep plowing
and other conserving methods will
be taught.
Much can be picked up in ten days’
study and observation at the College
in various lines, to result in lasting
benefit and profit to the progressive
farmer. Why not take the short
course?
WINTER SPRAYING FOR
SAN JOSE SCALE.
T. H. McHatton, Professor of Horti
culture.
Spray before Christmas with con
centrated lime-sulphur spray for San
Jose scale on fruit trees of any kind.
For small orchards the preparation
can be purchased. It would pay the
larger ones to make it. When pur
chased the concentrate will cost from
25 to 50 cents per gallon in small
quantities. One gallon of the concen
trate should be diluted with from 8
to 9 gallons of water. This can then
be applied with a spraying outfit, an
ordinary hand outfit, of course, be
ing sufficient for a small orchard.
From 1 to 2 gallons, depending upon
the size of the tree, should be applied.
Spray until the tree begins to drip.
Leave no part of the tree unsprayed.
If the scale is very bad, repeat the
spraying in January.
SEVEN MORE COUNTIES
FREED OF CATTLE TICKS
Dr. H. M. Burson, Professor Veteri
nary Department.
Seven Georgia counties have been
released from federal quarantine on
account of the presence of tick fever
during the past year. April .Ist
Banks, Clarke, Fannin, Hail and Put
nam counties were released and de
clared free of ticks, and on Sept. Ist
Newton and Oconee counties were
also released. This action on the part
of the federal authorities is the result
of the active campaign of eradication
which has been waged against the
ticks in these counties by the state
veterinarian and the federal authori
ties in co-operation, the college aid
i ing wherever possible.
In Memory Of
Mrs. W. R. Key
On Nov. 11th, 1913, our hearts
were made sad by the death of out
friend, Mrs. Key. A 1 thought every
thing possible was done her recov
ery the Lord in his wisdom saw
best to remove her from us to that
beautiful Land above. As we wit
nessed her intense suffering during
her several weeks of illness we felt
that death would be such a relief,
but when the hour came it was so
hard to give tier up, but we have
sweet assurance that, Some day,
some time, our eyes shall see the
face that's kept in memory, some
day, some time, 0 no, not yet, but
we will wait and not forget.
To know her was to love her for
she was an obedient daughter, a
sweet loving wife and devoted
mother and a true friend.
She is survived by her husband,
eight children, Mrs. Bennie Wilson,
of Macon, Clinton, Thomas, Lois,
Gladys, Layman, Lonnie May and
Ruby, father and mother, Mr. and
Mrs. T. C. Brannon, four sisters
and two brothers. To those we ex
tend our heartfelt sympathy in this
hour of grief.

FOR DELICATE CHILDREN
A Mother’s Letter to Mothers.
Mrs. E. W. Cooper of Bloomfield,
N. J., says: ‘‘My child, seven years
old, had a bad cold and was weak
and quite run down in health. She
had been in this condition for about
six weeks when I began giving her
Vinol. It was a wonderful help to the
child, breaking up her cold quickly
and building up her slre:i> h. beside.
I have also found Vinol a most excel
lent tonic for keeping up the cbil
dien’s strength during a siege of
whooping cough.”
Vinol is a wonderful combination
of two world-famed tonics—the medi
cinal body building elements of cod
liver oil and Iron for the blood, there
fore it is a perfectly safe medicine
for children, because It Is not a
patent medicine, everything in It is
printed on every package, so mothers
may know what they are giving their
little ones.
Therefore we ask every mother of
a weak, sickly or ailing child in this
vicinity to try Vinol on our guarantee.
P. S. Our Saxo Salve Is truly won
derful for Eczema. We guarantee it.
