THE MAY FESTIVVAL.
The May Festival was a grand success,
It was just right; no more, no less.
The physical exercise was surely the
best,
And the audience applauded with
energy and zest. —R. A. S.
Beautiful in every detail was the
dinner given for the two new members
of the board.
The office, where the dinner was
served, was pretty in its decorations
of sweetpeas and roses.
The large square table wag hollow
in the center and a large pedestal held
a silver wicker basket in which were
long-stemmed roses. The dinner was
cooked by the Senior girls of the iHgh
school.
Those present were Mr. and Mrs.
John Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Mathis,
Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Ames, Mr. and Mrs.
C M. Hale, Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Bolton,
Mr. E. B. Everett, Miss Claire Everett,
Dr. Lansing Burrow’s, Miss Mary
Rochester, Mr. and Mrs. Sam R. Heys,
Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Ellis, Mr. Cranston
Williams, Mr. Ed Gyles, Mr. and Mrs.
Lester Williams, Mr. and Mrs. L. G.
Council, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Parker,
Miss Nina McKean, Dr. and Mrs. C. P.
Davis, Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Gatewood.
The May Festival was a big succes.
There were about six hundred people
present. We think they enjoyed it as
much as we did. But it seems the peo
ple of Americus only come to see us
' hen we have a program or something
like that. We hope that the people en
joyed it thoroughly.
Thursday under the instruction of
Miss Wheatley, we made little bunga
lows. Don't get the Impression that
they were made out of wood, but
only paper. Many w r ere real good and
looked like sure enough houses. - The
boys said they were planning their fu
ture homes for their wives.
The little houses were made of dif
ferent-colored paper with chimneys
and columns. The porches were wide
and spacious. Large enough for an af
ternoon chat with some of the neigh
bors. anyway.
The exhibit of our art and manual
paining department that we had Mon
day was a fine display of the work we
have been doing all this year.
We think that Miss Wheatley and Mr.
Hoist have done fine in showing us how
to do such pretty and useful work.
Tuesday in our domestic science
work, we made fruit salad. We put
white cherries, grapefruit, pineapple
and mayonnaise in it. It was awfully
good.
Thursday Miss Wynne W’as sick and
Mrs. Hightower taught in her place.
But Miss Wynne is well now’, and is
back on the job.
The Seventh grade paid a visit to the
High school Friday to pull off the fi
nals in the recitation and declamation
contest.
All of the contestants, as well as
the other members of the classes were
excited at this visit but every one did
fine.
The Grammar school is beginning
earlj to train some prize winners for
future district meets.
It was first announced that Winifred
Hopkins and Paul Samson were the
victors, but a re-count of the ballots
showed that Mattie McNeal had tied
with Winifred and that John Butts had
tied with Paul.
To each of the boys will be given a
copy of “The World’s Best Orations.”
Each girl will be given a copy of
Longfellow’s poems.
THE HISH 'SCHOOL
The Glee club of the Americus High
school is busy preparing for the big
minstrel they will give some time in
the near future. Miss Lena Hardy, of
the music department, is directing the
burnt-cork artists, and under her
tutelage the youthful Charlie Ganos
arc performing to perfection. The cast
will be composed wholly of talent in
the Americus High school, and will
number something like twenty boys.
The latest jokes are being learned, and
a short skit or tw r o will help things
along.
The baseball team after its victor
ious series with Columbus, has played
no scheduled games, but they keep
busy, hoping to urge some team in
Georgia to play the locals. This vic
tory over Columbus seems to have
frightened aw’ay other High school
teams of the section, and as a conse
quence, Americus has not been able to
play any more games.
It was announced that the Seniors
would be excused from attendance on
the twelfth, or around that date. This
has always been the custom, as it will
enable those august personages to
prepare for the big time of graduation
night. Class speakers were selected
weeks ago, and they are preparing
their speeches. The Seniors will be
the honorees to several entertainments
given by the other classes during com
mencement w’eek, including the Junior
prom. Later individual members of
the class will entertain. Foremost
among the club reception for the class
is the Sphinz party. This will be given
at the home of Frank Walker Harrold,
one of the members of the Sphinx so
ciety. The invitations will be mailed
in a few days, and probably one hun
dred people will be invited.
The annual “A-Meri-Clan” the best
the school ever had has been sent to
the printers, and tw’enty days after the
last copy is received, the issue will off
the press.

Soy Beans.
Have you ever tried any for hog
grazing? Right about now is the
time to plant them. Suppose you try
some with Spanish peanuts. Put one
row of soy beans and one row of
Spanish peanuts with a hill of corn
occasionally In the peanut row and
give it all to the hogs. This makes a
combination for early fall grazing that
is hard to beat.
Have rows about three feet apart.
Plant the soy beans just about as you
w’ould peas, three to five in a hill. One
caution is necessary, unless there is
sufficient moisture in the soil to bring
them up at once, there Is some more
danger of not getting a stand than is
of peas. Try then to get a season in
the soil before planting, or cover deep
,and then in a few days knock off with
beard.
Rabbits like the soy bean more than
most any other crop we have, so it Is
best not to plant them too near a
swamp.
Plant the Mammoth yellow variety
for our section. If planted in altern
ate rows with Spanish peanuts as sug
gested, then be governed by the pea
nuts as to when to begin to graze. The
peanuts will be ready first, but the
hogs will bother the beans scarcely
nene until most of the peanuts are
gone. Then they have been known to
eat young beans, a good portion of
stem and leaves down to a stub.
The soy bean will not begin to bear
until about the last of July or first
of August, but when they begin to
fruit they fruit very rapidly and are
fairly good yielders.
There is no better soil improver
than the soy bean. It Is a splendid
crop to sow with peas after oats rather
■ than sorghum with peas. Seed about
one-half bushel per acre with the

peas. The beans grow in a bush and
hold up the peas as well as sorghum,
and adds to the soil rather than de
tract from it is sorghum does.
Soy beans is also a coming crop for
oil purposes. The oil content is
higher than cotton seed. The analysis
of cotton seed being: Fat, 19.38 per
cent; soy beans, fat 20.35 per cent;
peanut fat, 39.6 per cent. Aftet the
oil is crushed out there is no better
pig feed known than soy bean meal
and skimmed milk.
For more information on this crop
if any one will apply at our Depart
ment we will be glad to furnish it.
Try some soy beans and Spanish
peanuts for early fall hog feed.

Prof. Holst is well known in school
