#This season more crops than for
many a year will be side-dressed
with Natural Chilean Soda. It came
from the ground; now it’s going
back to the ground to give health
and vigor to your crops.
Once we believed crops needed
only phosphate, potash and nitro
gen. Now we know they require
many other elements. Once we
thought of the old-time natural fer
tilizers only as sources of phos
phate, potash and nitrogen. Now
we know they contain other equally
necessary elements.
All these years we
have been following
Nature’s laws —and
only realized what that
meant after trying sub
stitute materials.
There was a differ
ence. Crops showed it.

They did not seem to get what they
needed —what the old-time natural
fertilizers supplied.
What is the difference? Some
people think it is the extra elements
—the “vital impurities.” Others be
lieve it is the natural origin, the
centuries of blending and curing.
Probably it is both. The main point
is that the difference is there, and it

PLENITUDE OF GEORGIA
MADE WINE DISCOUNTED
BY ALCOHOL TAX HEAD
(From Atlanta Constitution)
Georgians who are hopeful of a
veritable flood of wine in the state
as a result of legalization of wine
made from Georgia grapes, are
doomed to disappointment, for the
lime being at least, according to
alcohol tax unit officials.
Not only are very few grapes
grown commercially in Georgia, but
federal restrictions are so great that
only capitalists can afford to enter
upon the manufacture of wine, even
on a small scale, it was pointed out.
Under the bill legalizing wine,
manufacture is permitted only from
grapes grown in Georgia, R. “E. Tut
tle, regional director of the alcohol
tax unit, points out. While some
Georgia farmers grow grapes for
domestic use, there are comparative
ly few vineyards operating on a
commercial scale. It takes several
years to develop grape vines to a
point where they will produce grapes
profitably, so Georgians apparently
will have to wait two, and possibly
three years, before they will be able
to satisfy their cravings for wine.
Federal regulations governing the
home manufacture of wine provide
that only the head of a family may
engage in such manufacture, and he
must make application for a permit
to the alcohol tax unit five days be
fore starting operations.
The head of a family can manu
facture only 200 gallons of wine in
any one year, and it must be exclu
sively for home consumption, alcohol
tax unit officials said. Thus, the
head of a family can make 200 gal
lons of wine, but it must be consum
ed on the premises and cannot be
given away. A family head may
serve wine to his guests in his home,
but if he has employes working on
the premises he cannot give them a
drink without violating the alcohol
tax law. Neither can he give a quart
of wine to a sick friend, unless the
friend is ill in the home of the
donor.
The wine regulations apply only
to the juice of the grape, all other
wines being classed as artificial or
imitation. Peach brandy, for in
stance, is classed as distilled liquor,
and the home vinter cannot make it
without coming in conflict with the
federal law.
Family heads who make wine
merely for home consumption who
do not first obtain a permit from the
alcohol tax unit will face seizure of
their wine, and possibly prosecution
in the federal courts, it was pointed
out.
The farmer who has had high
hopes of capitalizing on wine made
from grapes grown on his Georgia
farm is likewise doomed to disap
pointment.
Commercial manufacture on any
scale requires first of all that the
would-be vinter file application for
a permit with the Federal Alcohol
Control Administration, the vinter’s
code authority in Washington. Then,
if a permit isgranted, a license
must be obtained from the alcohol
tax unit. At the time the license is
issued, the vintner must deposit a
SSOO cash bond to cover federal
taxes on wine to be manufactured.
The federal government collects
a tax of 10 cents per gallon on wine
having an alcoholic content of 14
per cent or less; 21 cents a gallon on
alcoholic content of more than 14
per cent and less than 21 per cent;
and 40 cents a gallon on an alcoholic
content of more than 21 per cent
and not to exceed 24 per cent al
cohol. Any wine having a higher
content is classed as a liquor and
subject to the liquor tax of $2 per
gallon.
Very few Georgia farmers can af
ford to put up a SSOO bond to per
mit them to engage in the maufac
ture of wine, so most of them will
be obliged to sell their grapes either
to family heads or to wineries.
Several inquiries have been re
ceived by the ATU relative to estab
lishing large-scale wineries in Geor
gia, and one formal application is
expected to be filed in the near fu
ture.

DEPENDENT STUDENTS RANK
HIGHER
A survey made by the federal gov
ernment shows the scholastic record
of students -participating in the
government’s program of part-time
jobs for college undergraduates with
those whose expenses were being met
by their parents, ranked much
higher. These boys are in earnest
and working and sacrificing in order
to secure an education, while the sup
ported student does not feel the re
sponsibility, resting entirely upon
his parents to pay his expenses.
The boy who has to work his way
through college appreciates the op
portunity of securing an education
and works harder to accomplish his
ambition. An education once receiv
ed cannot be taken from the stu
dent, but in a majority of such cases,
the student utilizes it for the best
purposes. Such a condition is shown
at the University of California,
where a survey has just been com
pleted. No doubt, similar conditions
exist at practically all of the great
universities of the country.—Athens
Banner-Herald.
BUY AT HOME
There are any number of people
who laugh at the idea that it is best
to buy at home. They take the po
sition that it does not matter where
they spend their money if they get
their money’s worth. They subscribe
to the doctrine that the only obliga
tion they owe to the city is to get
what they can out of it.
Our ideas of trading at home do
not include buying goods from mer
chants who attempt exorbitant pro
fits. It does not necessitate the ac
ceptance of worn, dirty or be-drag
gled goods from old-time merchants
who think that it is up to the com
munity to keep them in business.
llt only means giving to the local
merchant a chance and then to buy
if he can reasonably meet other com
petition.
The local merchants, on their
side, have duties in regard to this
trade at home idea. They must
keep the buyer informed as to what
they have to sell. They must stock
new goods. They must be accom
modating and render real service to
the purchaser. They must refuse to
push shoddy goods or to sell to a
customer something that is apt to
be unprofitable. In short, they must
maintain at all times the confidence
of the community. Greensboro
Herald-Journal.
The Governor must surely be all
worked up against the administration
when he resorts to a broadcast cost
ing twenty-one thousand dollars to
lambast it. Whether he or some
other interest put up the money the
Governor declines to say. Ogle

HISTORY OF PROHIBITION
IN STATE OF GEORGIA
IS TOLD IN TABLOID
Here is a brief history of prohi
bition in Georgia:
1733 General Oglethorpe, foun
der of Georgia, puts ban on rum,
1734 Salzbergers, settling in Ef
fingham County, prohibit liquor.
1833—Legislture authorizes in
ferior court judges in Liberty and
Camden Counties to grant or re
fuse retail liquor licenses.
1857—Judges empowered to name
whisky inspectors to arraign and
have punished persons caught hand
ling poisonous liquor.
1859—Legislature fixes sso to
as ihe fine to rselling liquor to
slaves.
1869—Misdemeanor to furnish
rum to persons within two miles of
an election precinct.
1907—Georgia prohibits liquor,
effective January 1, 1908.
1911—General assembly enacts
law making application for or the
holding of a federal internal reve
nue receipt prima facia evidence of
violation of the prohibition law.
1916—Four acts are passed clari
fying and strengthening 1907 law.
1916 -Importation of commercial
alcohol regulated.
1917 — Georgia’s “bone dry” law
enacted in extraordinary session,
prohibiting manufacture, posses
sion, sale and transportation. Only
one-half of one per cent of alcohol
by weight allowed.
1919—Act is passed making state
and federal laws uniform.
1935—Triangular repeal referen
dum on wine, beer and liquor pro
vided for May 16.
WOODSBURNERS VS. INVESTORS
The current number of the For
estry-Geological Review, an official
publication of the State of Georgia,
comments on the refusal of the re
presentative of a large paper-mak
ing industry to consider, as a site for
anew pulp mill, a certain area which,
though otherwise advantageous, was
in the midst of territory where woods
burning was a custom. “Of course,”
says the Review, “no one could rea
sonably expect a paper mill to be
interested in a region where, every
year or two, people purposely burn
over the woods arid thus destroy
seedlings, the future source of pulp
wood on whioh the mills must de
pend. . . Will Georgians continue to
allow fire to cut them off from the
greatest potential market for pine
timber they have had for gener
ations?”
On the proper answer to that chal
lenging question hangs the hope of
building .up in this State a series of
new industries that will add im
mensely to our land values and our
common prosperity. The usefulness
of Southern pines for the manufac
ture of print paper and many other
cellulose products, including rayon,
have been demonstrated beyond a
peradventure. Capital is keenly in
terested in the opportunities thus
opened, and is surveying the South
east for investment sites. But it will
not pause to consider those counties
or districts where the destructive
and altogether foolish practice of
woods burning prevails. Intelligent
and loyal Georgians will not be slow
in taking their cue.—Atlanta Journ
al.
BLONDS? IXNAY SAYS MAN
WHO HAS NINE WIVES
Chicago.—Gentlemen may prefer
blondes, but not Ralph Mark, 40,
who says he had nine wives, and that
all of them were brunettes.
Mark, a marine engineer with a
bright gold tooth, was arrested yes
terday upon the request of New
York police, who indicated, although
they did not say definitely, that
Marx is wanted for violating his pa
role from Great Meadow Prison at
Comstock, N. Y., where the authori
ties said he was sentenced in 1928
to ten years for bigamy.
At the detective bureau Mark
helped while away the time by tell
ing of his wives.
“All of them,” he said, “were
brunettes and one of the old ones,
either.” He named them ofi, one by
one.
“That’s only eight,” someone re
minded him.
“Oh, yeah,” he replied. “I guess
I left out Beulah; she was from New
Orleans and comes in somewhere be
fore the last five.”

Adjustment Payments
Exceed 678 Million
Agricultural adjustment programs
have resulted in the distribution of
$678,416,926 in rental and benefit
payments to more than 3 million
cooperating farmers.
Processing taxes collected to April
1, 1935, have amounted to $77,540,-
894. These proceeds have been
equal to all rental and benefit pay
ments distributed to farmers, and al
so to expenditures in financing cer
tain programs for purchase of sur
plus agricultural commodities for
distribution to families on relief, aa
well as administrative costs of th
programs.
The processing tax, collected from
processors, is designed to fill in the
gap that has existed between parity,
or fair exchange value for farm pro
ducts, and the farm market prices.
The receipts from the tax may bo
considered as a part of the farmers*
price for the domestic portion of his
production.
Total expenditures chargeable to
the tax receipts amount to $776,103,-
578 up to April 1, including $678,-
416,894 paid farmers in rental and
benefit payments, $63,853,543 spent
in purchase of surplus agricultural
commodities, and $33,833,107 spent
in administration of the programs.
The cost of administration of the
agricultural adjustment program has
been approximately 4.3 per cent,
and of this about half was paid to
committeemen for their services io
connection with the program.
BAPTISTS PROCLAIM CHURCH
STATE SEPARATION
Memphis, Ten.—Southern Baptists
reaffirmed their adherance to that
“fundamental New Testament doc
trine,” —the “separation of church
and state,” —and heard instructions
to look upon members of other de
nominations as comrades as they
concluded their eightieth annual
convention today.
“Religon must be kegt free from
all entangling alliances with gov
ernment and government must not
assume patronage, sponsorship or
control over religion in any form,”
the convention agreed in adopting
the report of its social service com
mission.
“We would enter our earnest pro
test against the violation of this
principle by others, and especially
against the appropriation or applica
tion of public funds to sectarian in
stitutions of whatever name or or
der.”
The convention also resolved to
oppose “improper movies,” the “li
quor evil,” war and lynchings.
Tall, white-haired Dr. John R.
Sampey of Louisville, the new presi
dent, in taking over the gavel told
the delegates that “we must recog
nize as our allies in the great task
of world evangelism all who love
the Lord Jesus.”
“When we see members of other
denominational groups as comrades
instead of rivals, we won’t be out
with a sawed-off shotgun shooting
into them," he said. “We can show
forth this spirit of brotherhood and
co-operation without one moment
lagging in our loyalty to what we
believe to be the church ordinances
and doctrines.”

He was exhausted after four days
of violent hiccoughing. Medical aid
failed to give him relief. His fam

The remedies include: Press ears

tongue out for a minute; drink
water through linen handkerchief;
place brown paper bag over face for
five minutes; drink pineapple juice;
hold head back and swallow water
slowly; turn backward somersaults;
take flight in airplane.
