Soule, President Georgia State College Of Agriculture The fight against the boll weevil Itself, of course, belongs essentially to the State Board of Entomology and the State Department of Agriculture, where the quarantine and general reg ulatory power resides for the control of insect pests, but the State College >f Agriculture, through its extension nd demonstration agents, is ready to o its part in meeting the problems rising. At a meeting held at Macon for the purpose of organizing a campaign for better farming, the College enlisted its forces and Is in accord with the resolutions passed, which are as fol lows: “Resolved: That we approve the campaign on boll weevil inaugurated by the State Board of Entomology, and urge the active co-operation of the State Department of Agriculture, the United Slates Department of Agri culture, the Stale College r.f Agricui tuie, tile Stare Agricultural Society, the Farmers’ Union and other farm ers’ and business organizations with in the state. “Resolved: That this committee rec ommend that the State Chamber of Commerce furnish the expenses of a business man from boll weevil territo ry to organize and instruct the busi ness men of their duties in fighting the boll weevil. This man to be selected by the directors of the campaign. “Resolved: That under the leader ship of the Extension Forces in co operation with all other state agen cies engaged in farm improvement work, better farming campaign be in augurated in the counties immediately in advance of the boll weevil, gradual ly extending this to all sections of the State. This campaign to begin as soon as practicable, after the close of the boil weevil campaign, in which better farming, adequate markets and better credit be urged. “That the agricultural forces of the state take charge of the better farm ing campaign, and in connection there with the Chamber of Commerce and bankers and business men’s organiza tions take hold of the campaign for markets, credit and organizing the business interests in this work.” The effectiveness of the Smith-Lever and demonstration funds become very apparent in emergencies like this. The demonstration agent who is on the ground is prepared to put into effect the best advice that the campaigns, or expert scientists in general have to offer, in fact they are a very pres ent help in the time of trouble. TREATING SEED OATS FOR SMUT t R. Childs, Georgia State Coliege Of Agriculture Through the co-operation of tha uounty farm demonstration agents, an estimate has been compiled showing an average loss of ten per cent of tha oat crop of Georgia due to loose smut. The forecast of the government monthly crop report for Georgia on June Ist was 16,416,000 bushels of oats. Figuring on this basis the loss to the state was 1,824,000 bushels from smut. This disease is caused principally by smut spores which are upon the seeds when they are planted. Any treatment which kills the spores upon the seed without materially injuring the seed itself results in a clean crop. The most economical and satisfactory treatment is the formalin treatment. Formalin can be purchased from any druggist at a cost of from 40 to 50 cents per pint. One pint is sufficient to treat from 75 to 100 bushels of grain. This formalin should be used at the rate of one ounce to three gal lons of water or one pint to 40-50 gal lons of water. Stronger mixtures thaa this may injure genuine l'*a«. Spread the grain in a thin layer on the barn floor and sprinkle with the diluted formalin. A common watering pot can be used for this purpose. Be sure that all parts of the grain are evenly and thoroughly sprinkled, then shovel the grain over several times until the seed are all dampened with the solution. Heap into a pile and cover with a canvas sheet or sacks to keep the fumes of the formalin within. The pile should stand for »i* to ten hours in this tray, when it should be spread out to dry, stirring frequently until dry. Put into bags that have been disinfected with the formalin so lution. The drill should also be dis infected before sowing. FOR EARLY SPRING CABBAGE T. H. McHatton, Prof. Hort., Gea-qia State College Of Agriculture For early spring cabbage the seed should be sown no* later than October 1. When the plants :re three to four weeks old transplant them. Do this again the following month if possible. Set into the field from December on or early spring heads. In south Georgia it is customary to lant several seed in the hill in the pen field in early October and thin • hen t.he plants have started growth. Generally speaking it is better, how ever, to transplant from seed beds. Entirely * “ V, / New Management —(\ / > St. Simon’s Hotel ST. SIMON’S ISLAND, GA.
