Conserve Life By Conserving Food Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. During the coming yeai*, and per haps for several years, the United (States will be called upon to supply the food requirements of her allies well as her own civilian popula tion. Above all it is imperative that the armies have sufficient supplies, •ven though the folks at home suffer hunger. Only by each person doing his share can the war be brought to a successful conclusion. The soldier boys do their part in fighting a ruth less foe; you' part is to produce and conserve the food supplies. Your duty {ls: 1. To grow staple fruit, garden and farm crops. Let new and untried crops ialone. 2. To organize community farm la bor so as to utilize farm machinery to the best advantage. A traction en gine in a community should be kept busy. Business men should club to gether to furnish machinery to farm ers who cannot afford to purchase at present. 8. To assist the Demonstration and Canning Club Agents in their work.

T“FSVILLE NEWS, JULY 5, 1917 Marketing Georgia Products Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. Upon the business men of the state rests the responsibility of establish ing coiysuming markets for Georgia products, not only at home, but abroad also. For instance, om community last year shipped several hundred car loads of sweet potatoes to northern markets. The individual farmer can not do work of this kind; the respon sibility for organization rests with the business men. There are several Geor gia crops which are not appreciated in northern and eastern markets, simply because there are no large consuming markets for these products. An organ ized campaign in exploiting the possi bilities of these crops would undoubt edly react as favorably as has such work ,in connection with cotton seed and peanut oil. Educational forces, such as the State College of Agriculture and its County Demostration Agents, could promote diversification with greater rapidity in Georgia and aid in the early so lution of the present food problem if the business men would “clear the decks for action” with the statement, “Go tell the farmers to grow the va rious kinds of food needed and we will find acceptable markets for all they produce.’' At present the educational character of the work they are called upon to perform separates the college workers in a measure from the mar keting end of the proposition which Is strictly a business question. Unfor tunately business men have not been as aggressive or Interested in this line of work as they should have .been. For this reason the attempts of our agricultural college to pro mote diversification have often been nullified to a considerable extent. If the handicap is removed our agricul tural college workers will be able to perform a service work of the utmost importance in the present crisis with assurance of immediate results. Let us all stand together—our country de mands it. Soy Bean Grazing For Hogs John R. Fain, Prof, of Agronomy, Ga. State College of Agriculture. The principal use in the South for •oy beans will probably be as a graz ing crop for hogs. On sandy soils it cannot compete with peanuts, but on heavy soils the grow h is luxuriant Prom 200 to 500 pounds of pork can be secured per acre from grazing soy beans, varying somewhat for the pro ductivity of the soil and the variety of beans. The grazing period is not long since the pods burst shortly after ripening and there is considerable waste unless grazed rapidly. About sixteen 100-pound hogs per acre are required to utilize the beans to best advantage if hogs are put on when the beans are in the dough stage. The beans will carry this number of hogs from two to four weeks, depending up on the condition of the crop. War Bread Miss Lois Dowdle, Assistant State Su pervisor Home Economics In an endeavor to reduce the to tal consumption of wheat flour a num ber of substitutes have been tested and vrith very good results v For in stance, a substitution of peanut meal for 26 per cent of the flour will re duct the amount of shortening and Pro duces a muffin which is delicious, or soy bean meal may be used with equally good results. One very good mixture is as follows: 50 pet cent whole wheat flour, 25 per cent corn meal, and 25 per cent peanut meal. Not only is the war bread less costly to produce, but it is more nutritious and morn appetizing. Try it on your **hle and see what the family think of it! N- ' Diversification Of Crops Vs. System Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia j State College of Agriculture. A system, like a habit, may or may not be a desirable feature. Often it may stand in the way of distinct ad vancement No one has any argument against diversification of crops, and especially In the present crisis, yet the movement progresses slowly. Just why Is this? Briefly: 1. On account of the cotton ware house system which permits of the handling of one crop only. 2. On account of the restricted credit which now exists confining the farmer’s effort largely to the produc tion of one crop. 3. On account of the small capital possessed by the average farmer which effectually prevents his branching out Into new fields. 4. On account of the large percen tage of tenant farmers who do not think for themselves and who are willing to travel In the old i*ut just so long as they make a living. 5. On account of the failure to han dle diversified crops profitably which has been the experience of hundreds of growers, because of the fact that our market facilities are not properly organized. It is Imperative that all of our peo ple work together in the solution of this problem; the fanners must have the co-operation of the business men. TURNIP SEED. TURNIP SEED. TUR NIP StED.
