THE RURAL TEACHER
IN SUMMER SCHOOL
ATHLETICS IN THE SCHOOL
The editor of The News believes in
physical training ill our schools. Wc
believe that playgrounds should be pro
vided for the children, but we are reacli-
tho conclusion that the average boy
gets very little out of high school ynd
college work save the physical training
given him. The boy’s mind becomes
saturated with athletics and all thought
of study is banished. The heroes in his
mind are the great baseball players
the footbal-stars, etc. These naturally
appeal to a boy's mind and lie thinks
that nil that’s worth while in school life
is the athletic side of ttie proposition.
Dr. M. M. Parks,\state superintendent
of schools, in his report to the legisla
ture, speaks wisely when he says:
“Physical training is an important
j.., r t of'education. Wholesome athletics
should find a place in every school.
Suitable playgrounds should be provi
ded. School authorities should recog
nize the responsibility for “safe-guard
ing mid raising the standards of physi
cal education of all students.”
'“Unfortunately, all athletics in our
schools and colleges is not wholesome
and much of it should be regulated with
more vigor. Occasionaly young boys
arc over trained or over strained, with
injuries to the heart.
“Occasionally the school athletics is
confined to a small per cent of the stu
dents, with neglect in physical training
to the majority of students.
“Frequently ttie school expenses are
increased to tiic individual student, ~ho
■is sometimes subjected to sentimental
appeals for excessive contributions and
who is sometimes subjected to arbitrary
It is gratifying to know that each
summer marks an increased enrollment
ol rural teachers in summer schools.
Some are attending for the single pur
pose of adding credits to complete the
number of requirements for the much
coveted degree. Others go for the re
creational as well as the educational
advantages offered. Directors of sum
mer schools which are located near our
wonderful peaks, lakes, mountains, or
ocean shores advertise extensively the
advantages offered l;y their specially
favored locality for nature study, out
door recreation, art, etc. If the select
ed work is not too strenuous, and it ii
possible to elect one or two “extras,”
the rural teacher will find the subjects
ot Visual Instruction and Play not oulj’
interesting but beneficial.
Summer schools are offering courses
in the technique of Visual Instructiou,
teaching the rural teachers how,to solect
end use a stereopticon'and a “ movie,”
The rural teacher can use a “pres-to-
lite” tank nr a' storage battory to pro
vide light for the lantern whon elec-
ricitv is not available. An electric cur
rent is necessary to secure the best re
sults with a “movie.”
Play and health are closely related.
Rural teachers should taka with them
from the summer school new games that
can he played indoors on a rainy day
and outdoors in the sunshine. Problems
of discipline vanish when the teacher is
a “good spurt,” “knows the game and
plays it fair and square.”
DIARY OF A GOLF BALL
Up early, immaculate in my white
coat. To the golfing links, where I am
placed on a hump of sand overlooking
a vast expanse of grass. As I enjoy the
scenery I am suddenly whacked with a
great club of wood and feci myself
soaring through space. It is a brave
sensation, flying like a homing bird.
The journey over, I come to rest in the
grass, proud of my flight, but craving
no more of it, for I am ill accustomed
to blows. Roused again by a loud but
kindly voice, speaking boastfully of iny
long journey. A great iron club up
heaves the sod behind me and I bounce
but a short way. Again .1 am aroused
by a loud voice, but this time it curses
me roundly, albeit I have done naught
whatsoever to deserve it. Again the
great iron club descends and I am hoist
high in the air. Lawns and trees flush
beneath me, and finally a gentle brook,
into which I fall with a merry splash.
Down, down into the soft ooze, and so
to bed.
to after the second year. The seed-bed
should be firm. One of the best seed
beds for crimson clover is pen liny
stubble. Corn or cotton middles will
do almost as well. The land should not
be disced, plowed or otherwise disturbed
but loft ns firm ns possible. The seed
should be broadcast ns evenly ns pos
sible over the land and not covered.
Feeding in middle Georgia should take
place from September 15th to October
15th. It is not a good plan to wait
for ruin, lmt to sow at the time indica
ted.
At the first sowing it is best to use
about 50 pounds per acre of seed in the
elmlT. Later, after the land has become
well inoculated, as little as half this
amount may he used.
To grow crimson clover successfully
it is necessary to have the soil inocula
ted with the proper nodule forming bac
teria. Usually our fields do not con
tain these bacteria for plover and it is
necessary to supply them by artificial
means. Soil in which crimson clover,
red, alsike, white, hop, California, rab
bit’s foot, or buffalo clover has been
growing contain the proper bacteria
and may be used for inoculation. If
these soils are not available artificial
cultures may be obtained and mixed
with ordinnry soil. This soil should be
scattered evenly over the field, prefer
ably on a cloudy day, after the fall
rains have begun, at the rate of about.
-100 pounds per acre. The bacteria will
not stand dry weather and sunshine, so
it is best to wait until conditions nre
favorable before inoculating. However,
it is host to inoculate ns soon after sow
ing ttie seed as conditions will permit.
Broad casting manure over the land
along with the inoculating soil is a good
P 'HARVESTING SEED: Seed may be
harvested by means of a stripper, plans
for which ninv be obtained by writing
to the United States Department, of
Agriculture, Washington, D. C. When
n stripper is used seed should be allow-
ed to mature fully and the heads should
be quite dry.
Seed may also be saved by cutting
with a mower when about two-tliirds or
the seeds are hard. The plants should
be out when the dew is on them early
in the morning and immediately raked
into windrows behind the mower. Next
morning it should be hauled to the barn j
or stack. Handled in this way shatter
ing is not so bad. Later the seeds may
be threshed by means of an ordinary
thresher with the fan belt removed.
Small lots of seed can bo flailed out on
a, canvass sheet. New seeds should be
enrofuly watched for signs of heating.
SOILS AND FERTILIZERS: Crim
son clover will do well oh a wide range
of soils. On heavy clay soils in poor
condition the heaving of the soil during
the winter may injure the stand lor
the first year or two. This may be pre
vented by mulching with straw or other
litter. Growth on poor sandy soils is
apt to be small and it is best to build
up the soils with a summer legume be
fore planting crimson clover.
Fertilizer ean generally be applied
with best advantage to the crop pre
ceding the clover. Barnyard manure
will always give good returns when up-
plied to crimson clover. Tt may be apt
plied as a top dressing during the win
ter months or mixed with inoculating
..oil in the fall. On land not fertilized
the previous rear 200 to 300 pounds of
acid phosphate, as a. top dressing, give
profitable returns on some soils.
ROTATIONS: Crimson clover can be
used to follow almost any of our com
mon crops. When grown for a green
manure crop it, can be turned under the
latter part of March to May 1st, in
middle Georgia. When harvested for
hav it can be gotten off the land about
Mnv 1st The seed harvest comes the

farmer ail opportunity to plan a rota

Our method of farming in the past,

farmer limy put to work on his own
farm at a very low cost. Its potential
value is so great under Georgia condi
lions that the Georgia Experiment Sta
tion wishes to urge every farmer who
can do so to start, at least a small field
of it this fall. Once a thoroughly in
oculated field is started on a fnrm it is
comparatively easy to spread it to the
rest of the field. The presont prospects
are that seed will be scarce for several
years, so that every farmer should be
prepared to save nil of his seed.—R. F.

A WORD OF PRAISE
There are a number of business and
professional men in Carrollton whose
purses and time nre offered and freely
given when anything worthwhile is pre

is up for consideration. They arc al
ways boosting amt never, knocking, and
are deserving of a word of praise and

not have a cover crop on the land every
winter. In parts of the country where
crimson plover is commonly grown Tarm-
ers have been known to raise the yield
of tlieir corn crop from 10 bushels to
55 bushels per acre by sowing crimson
clover in their corn every year. Rota

of the farmer. Two are given here as
suggestions:
1. First year: Small grains followed

small grains.
2. First.year: Small grains followed
bv peas, clover sown in the pea stub
bie. Second year: Sweet potatoes, soy
beans, or peanuts. Third year: Cotton
with clover in the middles. Fourth

green ip (inure crop, hay, seed or pastun

Some farmers in the State are making
$30.00 to $40.00 an acre from seed
alone. It is as a soil improvement

its greatest value. Double the usun
crop has often been obtained by the use
of crimson clover. The Mississippi Sta
tion lias estimated the nitrogen in a
, good crop of crimson clover worth from
I $25.00 to $35.00. The United States
