Fain. Professor Of Agronomy, Georgia State College Of Agriculture. That there is now at least a limited opportunity in the production of pea nuts for oil for those who are not in a position to graze the peanuts off with hogs, is unquestioned. This will certain last as long as present mar ket conditions in oil prevail. W the producer of peanuts can con tract ahead for 75 cents per bushel or above, he can figure a profit of some thing like 15 cents per bushel based on 40 bushels per acre at average cost of production. If contracts can not be made ahead for a definite price, wherever possible, the farmer should be in a position to graze the nuts off with hogs, in case the price of nuts at harvest time, does not make it prof itable to put them on the market. Estimates for the profitable produc tion of pork can be based on 200 pounds of pork per acre. There are a good many reports of as much as 1,- 000 pounds of pork per acre on pea nuts, but 200 pounds can safely be taken as the minimum. If 600 to 800 pounds of v>ork can be obtained it will give a larger profit than peanuts at 75 cents sold to the oil mill. One of the main differences between grazing hogs and selling nuts to the uL’i is the maintenance of the fertil ity c 4 the land. This is a most im portant factor and it should be clear ly kept in mind that where hay and nuts are all removed the land will de preciate in crop-producing power. Where the hogs graze the peanuts the land should increase in crop-producing power. Livestock Campaign Quite Successful Milton P. Jarnagin, Professor Of Ani mal Husbandry, Georgia State College Of Agriculture. The campaign for more and bet ter livestock which has been conduct ed in Georgia by the College of Agri culture in co-operation with the rail roads, proved as great a success as could he hoped for. Practically the whole state was included in tiie itin erary, every line of railroad being used. About 175 stops were made by the exhibit cars, the arrangement be ing to make two stops a day." About 175,000 people visited the exhibits and heard the speeches made by the ex perts accompanying the exhibits. All those who saw the exhibits know more today about what pure-bred live stock is, what different breeds are and their adaptability to local condi tions than they ever knew before. Un questionably many have been led to desire ptire-bred animals and many have already determined to have such lypes of animals as their foundation for breeding. The ultimate outcome of the campaign, therefore, will be a large contribution to the improve ment of livestock, the influence of which will continue indefinitely as the effect, of better breeds develops from year to year. This campaign would have been im possible without the assistance of the railroads. They joined most heartily in the undertaking. The exhibits of home-grown feeds added conclusive arguments in favor of the livestock industry in Georgia. In fact, the conclusion which the cam paign enforced with no room left for doubt,'is that Georgia affords splen did opportunities for livestock grow ing. Farmers Cautioned About Phosphate-Lime Fertilizers 1 W. A. Worsham, Jr., Professor Of Ag ricultural Chemistry, Georgia State College Of Agriculture. Requests have come to the College of Agriculture for information about the value of phosphate-lime which is being advertised under attractive trade names, and, in a way, to indi cate that the soil requirements for phosphorus and lime can be obtained very cheaply in this way. The Department of Agricultural Chemistry of the College makes the following statement: “From their ad vertisement the reader would be led j to believe that the material is differ ent from the finely ground phosphate rock, commonly known as ‘floats.’ The descriptions are such as would t*asily lead Ihe farmer to believe that the lime in the phosphate material is ca pable of correcting the acidity of the soil—the purpose for which lime is used. There are only three forms of lime which can be used for correct ing the acidity of the soil, burnt lime, slaked lime and ground limestone. No other form of lime should be consid ered by the farmer for this purpose. The particular material which is be ing advertised to supply both phos phoric acid and lime is a low grade phosphate rock finely ground. It con tains a relatively high percentage of iron and aluminum which is objec tionable. The lime contained in phos phate rock and acid phosphate is of no value for correcting soil acidity. “Any one contemplating using rock phosphate should write the College for a circular recently issued on the use of ground rock phosphate.” isR, W'fk ' r ‘ Entirely' ” V ( ’ / New Management f St. Simon’s Hotel ST.
