Here is a bit of good advice to fish ermen from the United States fish com¬ mission: "Always wet your hands when you remove from the hook a fish that is too small to keep. It prevents injury to the fish. Dry hands rub off the slime on the body of the fish and cause a growth that will kill the fish in u short time.” ---- ---------- They Let Him Sleep Soundly Since taking Foley Kidney Piiis 1 believe l>im entirely cured and I sleep soundly all night.” H.

Forest Leaves Provide fell izieg Material J. B. Berry, Professor Of Forestry, Georgia College Of Agriculture. Many thousand of pounds of valua¬ ble fertilizer are destroyed each year in Georgia, which, if properly treated, would rival barnyard manure. Large quantities of leaves are burned with¬ out any thought cf their fertilizing value. In all parts of Europe the farm¬ ers eagerly gather the leaves from the forest, along the roads and from the fields, often paying for the privi¬ lege. Leaves thus gathered are com¬ posted usually near where .they are gathered. After a year or' two the composted material is hauled to the barnyard and mixed with the barn¬ yard manure as a part of the compost there. ^ As a rule'leaves decompose much more rapidly J ' than the crude fiber ot - ric ltural and contain many a c , ops , larger quantities of nitrogen and pot j ash. The loaves may be raked to¬ gether after a rain into piles and over i them a layer of soil sufficiently thick ! to hasten decomposition, may, be plac¬ ed. Quick lime sprinkled over the leaves will help the decay. Recent Bulletins of College The College of Xsriculture is almost constantly issuing circulars, bulletins and other forms of publications, all of which are free. They are made as timely as possible and applicable to conditions in existence now. The fertilizer situation has developed cir¬ culars on potash and rock phosphate. What to do for potash, of course, is a vital question. Warning is issued in this circular against use of caustic soda for potash, efforts being made by some people to sell such materials in Georgia as a substitute for pot¬ ash. The bulletin on the use of reck phosphate as a substitute for phos¬ phoric acid tells what may be expect¬ ed and warns farmers not to expect immediate results from it. Circulars on lime have been issued from time to time, and one is fit course of preparation touching new; phases of the lime question as dovel- j oped recently in the state. Particu¬ larly for the use of corn clubs ana I demonstration agents, a circular has ] been issued on corn cultivation. “Farm Management Under Boll i Weevil Conditions” is the subject of a 1 i timely and important bulletin issued to tell how farmers can cautiously: cbange 0 t j lp j r farm practices, but urges : j j them to keep on growing cotton to a limited extent. j —- OF PIGS ACUTE CATARRH | Dr. W.
