A College on Wheels.
An educational train will again
tour Georgia from February 7 to
March 25th 1911. inclusive. This,
is the first definite and official an-j
nouncement of it, and is made on
the authority of Dr. Andrew M.
Soule, president of the State Col
lege of Agriculture.
The operation of this train iB
made possible through the cour
teous co-operation of the various
railroads doing business in the
state. The railroads are providing
the necessary equipment of cars,
while the live stock, machinery
and other exhibits carried are be
ing provided and installed under
the direction of the State College
of Agriculture.
A tentative itineyrarv has al
ready been prepared and will be
published as soon as approved by
the railroads co-operatingin the
movement. It is contemplated
that 140 towns will be visited, a
stop off of between 2$ and 3 hours
having been provided at most of
these points. As the towns are all
in different counties it will be
seen that the state is being very
completely covered. It is the in
tention and desire of the agencies |
co-operating to serve the largest j
number of people by again placing
the college on wheels and carry
ing it to the doors of the people it
is intended to serve. To this end
a much more complete and elabo
rate equipment has been provided
for the second train.
There will be a car of live stock
for instance, containing some 15
choice animals, including draft
horses, beef and dairy animals,
sheep and swine.
There will be a car load of farm
machinery of the latest and most
approved type. Much of it will be
set up and exhibited.
Two cars will be devoted to ex
hibits of corn and cotton, showing
the best varieties and fertilizers to
use. A complete line of fertilizer
material and foi mulas for the prin- j
cipal crops will be exhibited. j
Methods of selection and improv
ing cord and cotton, together with
standard grades of cotton, will be
shown. There will be a display of
spray outfits and rotations suit
able for various classes of live
stock, and an exhibit of the me
chanical and chemical anaylsis of
type soils of Georgia. There will
also be an exhibit of the work done
by the boys’ corn clubs.
It will be noted that six curs
will be provided for carrying ex
hibits .
This will be the most complete
educational train ever operated in
the Southern states. Data of in
terest and benefit to every person
who owns land or who is interest
in agricultural education will be
shown. A special effort will be
made to provide exhibits of inter
est and benefit to the school child
ren. It i 9 believed that every per
son visiting the train can secure
at least one new idea which will
be worth several dollars to him
immediately. About 150,000 peo
ple visited the last train, and it is
believed the attendance will be
larger this year. It is easy to see
that this movement may be made
the means of distributing inform
ation which will be worth several
million dollars to the state of
Georgia.
The train will be accompanied
by some 12 experts who will speak
on soil management, 6eed selec
tions, the use of fertilizers, crop
rotations, feeding, breeding and
management of live stock, diseases
of animals, orchard and garden
management injurious insects and
plant diseases, cotton and cotton
by-products, maintenance of soil
fertility, agricultural education,
and boys’and girls’ club contests
The cost of preparing and in
stalling the exhibits on this train
is beincr largely borne bv friends
of the institution, while the train,
itself, is being provided by the
generosity of the railroads. This
movement can be made of the
greatest possible value to the peo
ple of the state if they will co-op
erate and taktf advantage of the
opportunities it affords Kiverv
town visited should make a special
effort to advertise its coming and
to invite the people feom rural dis
tricts and surrounding territory to
be present. Much longer stops
have been provided for this year
than could he made in 1908. Not
quite so many points will he visi
ted, but the idea is to give those
visiting the train a chance to se
cure as much benefit from the
visit as possible.
•'lt, is to be sincerely hoped that
every one will co-operate and as
sist in making the journev as
thoroughly helpful and beneficial
j as it can and should be to the ag
ricultural and industrial interest ;
of the state,” says Dr. Soule, who j
will be in charge of the train.
Children’s Food.
Certain little suggestions are al
ways to l»e followed when planning
the diet of the little ones. To
keep healthy little stomachs in the
nurßery never serve hot stewed
fruit to the children. Plenty of
stewrd fruit and baked apples
they should eat, but they must in
variably be cooked the day before
and dished up cold. The nursery
potatoes should always be baked
or boiled in their jackets. Stewed
and fried potatoes or potatoes
boiled without their skins supply
starch, w ith a loss of all of all the
wholesome potash salts that the
sk in gives out during tho process
of cooking into the white part of
the vegetable.
