SOME BENEFITS OF
SMITH-LEVER FUNDS
Andrew M. Soule, President Gcorgia
State Cellege Of Agriculture
In that section of south Georgia
- whera the boll weevil has so unex
pectedly appeared, there is much work
to be done to lead cotton farmers inte
raising other crops and to instruci
them in the best methods of cotton
production under those conditions. It
is therefore, very gratifying to the
farmers and busines¢ men of that sec
tion to find that jus{ such service is
provided through the Smith-Lever
funds. With these funds experts can
be employed to go among the farmers
and render the very practical help
that is needed. The foresighted farm
er knows by this time what he may
expect from the boll weevil. This type
of farmer is, therefore, ready to be
advised, The backward and unpro
gressive farmer will not believe that
the boll weevil will harm him until
the harm is done, but eventually he
will be very willing to receive advice
as to what he must do.
Smith-Lever funds have been instru
mental in saving hundreds of thou
sands of dollars’ worth of hogs during
the past year, through the demonstra
tion agents inducing the farmers to
use cholera serum and by the agents
themselves applying it. The agents,
of course, are supported in part by
Smith-Lever funds.
All that the county demonstration
agents have done to advance farming
in Georgia, all that they have saved
the farmer not only with cholera se
rum, but by spraying for the destruc
tion of insect and fungous pests and
cattle tick eradication; all that they
have saved in regard to the use of
fertilizers; the better crops they have
demonstrated can be made by improv
ed methods of cultivation; the improv
ed and labor saving machinery they
have been instrumental in introducing;
the pure-bred animals they have
brought into the state; the cereal
crops they have led the farmers to
cultivate, the legumes, the fruits, the
truck—all the millions of dollars they
have saved or crcated is only a very
small iota of what the state pays for
it through the Smith-Lever funds.
In addition there are the boys’ ccrn
clubs, the girls’ canning clubs, the pig
clubs, poultry clubs, four-crop clubs,
the domestic science work.
Besides there are the field experts
that travel frecm the College doing
work in demonstrating in cereals, fer
tilizers and methods of cultivation on
various soil types; experts also in
heef production, dairying and hog
cholera control.
For every dollar that the state puts
up for projects of the Smith-Lever
funds, it gets another dollar from
the United States treasury, in
amounts that increase gradualy till the
full limit is reached. None of the
money can be used for teaching pur
poses. It must be spent out among
the farmers. It is, therefore, the
farmers’ money.
Sweet Potato Crop
Andrew M. Soule, Pres. Georgia State
College Of Agriculture
The canning of sweet potatoes is \
matter of great importance, and 0021
this account considerable attention
has been directed to this problem by
the Georgia State College of Agricul
ure. Two years ago an instructor was
appointed in the Department of lor
{iculture in the person of Prof. R. E.
Blackburn. In addition to his teaching
work, he undertook investigations
with the canning of sweet potatoes in
the hope of discovering a cheap and
desirable method of preserving them.
It is important to remember that the
potato should not be allowed to cool
from start to finish of the processing.
The experiments indicate that sweet
potatoes may be canned successfully
in quite a number of different ways.
Among those which have given the
greatest degree of satisfaction are,
first, the direct, open process which
requires about five hours; second, the
intermittent open process which takes
one hour a day for three days in suc
cession; third, the use of steam at a
pressure of five pounds and requiring
two hours to complete the work;
fourth, steam under ten’ pounds pres
sure and requiring about seventy-five
minutes; and fifth, steam under fif
teen pounds pressure and requiring
about fifty minutes to complete the
work.
The first two methods would, of
course, be better adapted for use in
the farm home than the latter three.
It was found after many trials that
sugar syrup is of little value in the
canning of sweet potatoes. In other
words, it is best to pack them dry.
It is advised in conclusion that
steam be used in the canning of sweet
potatoes cven in the home. A small
canner will cost about $l5. The pota
toes may be successfully peeled by
hand if cooked for forty-five minutes.
They should be packed while hot and
the cans sealed. Tin is preferable ‘to
zlass for sweet potatoes. The pro
cessing should be done under ten
pounds pressure continued for seven
ty-five minutes. The cans should be
cooled by filling the retort with cold
water before the cans have a chance
to air-cool, or just as soon as the pro
cessing period is over, and the steam
can then be allowed to escape from
the retort.

There’s the itemized list of what

cause of Studebaker’s experience,
unexcelled manufacturing facil
