August is a good time to put tools and machinery in shape for next sea son. They should all be well housed, painted, and oiled t ■ prevent damage. In August begin the preparation for 1 fall and winter crops. Select the loca- * tions best suited to the different crops to be planted. Get your seed and fer tilizer on hand ready to be used. If you have livestock to feed and >our land is suitable, do not forget that the fall is the proper time for seeding alfalfa. In procuring the seed for this crop accept only guaranteed western-grown seed and do not be per suaded to use foreign-grown seed. Crimson Clover Seed Scarce. In time of peace and with normal prices the department would recom mend the seeding of bur and crimson clover, but at the present time no i farmer should plant to use bur or j crimson clover unless he can obtain i good soed at a reasonable price. The seed of crimson clover is especially ■ scarce and high priced. The use of i these crops is good agricultural prac tice in normal times, but in this time , of emergency the land would probably j best be put in rye, wheat, or winter oats. If you have oats that you have grown yourself, sell only for seed and be sure to retain enough seed for your own land. Rye a Good Crop to Raise. I Rye will prove a very beneficial I crop. The yield compares favorably i with wheat and the price bids fair to be- good in proportion. The Allies in Europe will accept rye almost equally with wheat as a bread grain. Among ■ other considerations should be tnen ; tinned the fact that rye stands the i winters well, doing even better than wheat or oats. In the coastal-plain sec tion be sure to see that you get a va riety well adapted to that section. Con suit vottr county agent and consider The BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS, AUGUST 16,1917 Iye for a part of your land for the win ter crop. Place your orders for fertilizers and for lime and seed as early as possible or. account of the problem of trans portation in full carload lots, and have them on hand in ample time for use. Remember that in this time of emer gency things are apt to be delayed. Get Ready fob the Fall Rush. August is generally a season of lull, during which the farmer may attend to a great many things and get ready for the busy season in the fall. I.*ook up the question of storage for the corn, hay and sweet ivotatoes. If you have an increased acreage in corn do not let the season of harvest come ou without some provision for taking care of the product, properly drying it, preparing the surplus for market, and storing the reserve supply so that it will not be wasted and you can use it during the fall, winter and spring. Where are you going to get your sur plus corn shelled for market, and are good, clean, new sacks available fo, sacking it? If not, you should make inquiries and find out. If your hay is stacked in the field examine the stacks from time to time and see that the hay is not spoiling. Make sure that the stack is properly rounded* out so as to shed water and prevent spoiling of the hay, which conies from irregular and jioor stacks. Is there a sweet-potato storage house at your town and can you se cure space in it for the storage of your crop? It' you have any consider able quantity of sweet potatoes grow ing it will pay you to look into this. If there is no sweet-potato storage house near you, inquire of your county agent, look ii]) the total number of acres now growing, and consider with your j neighbors and others the advisability | of erecting a modern storage house for sweet potatoes. Your state agri cultural college and the United States Department of Agriculture will he very glad to give you any assistance and help to furnish plans. In preparing your land for fall crops, if you are in a hilly section where the lands wash badly, do not fogret to build your terraces before planting the fall crops. Consult your county agent, and get instructions in properly terracing to prevent erosion—Weekly News Letter. RAILROADS INCREASE LOCOMO TIVE AND FREIGHT MILEAGE. Gratifying indications of the extent to which the railroads of the United States are making effective their ef forts to produce greater transporta tion efficiency to aid in winning the war, are shown by statements just sent out by the Railroads' War Board from Washington The railroads have gone at this pa triotic effort as they never went at anything before in their history, and while the difficulties have been great, they have been tackled with a liner spirit and a greater determination to surmount them. New railroad equipment which can be made in America is being sent to our Allies in Europe. The problem of our railroads is to handle a very great increase in freight with virtually no ijicrease in freight cars, locomotives, or tracks. In that effort they are not only co-operating among themselves tut are receiving splendid support from the public and the shippers. This great increase in service was tendered with a' very slight increase in the amount of equipment used. The number of frier.ght locomotives in service in May last year was 24,362, while this year the number was 21.483, an increase of one-half of one per cent. Last, year 5n May there were 1,800,- 842 freight cars ir. service, while this year the number w-as 1,832,921, an in crease of one and four-fifths per cent. A distinct mark of progress is the great reduction in the number of freight cars in the shops or awaiting repairs. Last year in May there were 113,147 cars under, or awaiting repair, while this year only 104,061 were in tliat condition. Locomotives in repair, or awaiting repairs last year were 4.006 and in May this year 3,593, a re duction of 10.3 per cent. I>ast year railroad locomotives ran an average of 65.6 miles per da>, while this year they made 71.3 miles. Freight cars made an average of 28.3 miles a day in May last year, and this year 29.6 miles, an increase of five per cent. In the same jieriod the mileage of cars moving empty was te duced by five per cent, while the nnlo : ?e of cars moving under load was in creased 9.5 per cent. This is ail the more remarkable when it is realized that May 1916 was itself a month of heavy traffic.
