Daily developments are now confirm

taken on this question of planting
wheat, fall oats and rye. Georgia needs

sweet potataoes or other profitable
crops, thus making two valuable crops
from the same land within the year.

said Commissioner J. J. Brown, “but I

“We want to urge the farmers all
over Georgia to continue the planting

self to be influenced by 30 cent cotton,
to cause him to plant heavily of that
product at the expense of food and
feed products. If our Georgia farmers
will continue to make sufficient food
products for man and beast, to main
tain the farmer and supply the state,
then indeed will Georgia cotton become

imagine no condition that would be
more profitable to the farmers of this

LET GEORGIA DOUBLE
HER WHEAT ACREAGE
Must Safeguard Our Food Supply And
Help Feed Allies
In accord with the war agricultural
program recently announced by United
btates and State Agricultural officials,
the farmers of Georgia are urged to
double their wheat acreage over the
amount sowed last fall. With the ex
ception of some of the sandy soils of
!he southern part of the state, wheat
can be raised to advantage on most
farms in the State, and wherever wheat
can be grown farmers are urged to
seed an area sufficient to safeguard
their own food supply.
Wheat is best adapted to the loam,
clay loam and heavier types of sandy
loam soil w-here a firm but friable
seed bed can be prepared.
Wheat makes its best yields follow
ing some legume crop, but it can also
be sown to advantage after cotton and
corn. Where wheat follows cotton the
stalks should be turned under as soon
as the cotton is all picked. A roller
can then be used to compact the seed
bed and the seed put in with a disk
drill. Where wheat is to follow a
clean cultivated crop a good seed bed
can be prepared by the use of a disk
harrow.
■ Wheat should be sown early enough
to allow the plants to get well start
ed before winter. If the Hessian fly
is present, seeding should be delayed
until about the time for the first frost.
Late seeding should be avoided, how
ever.
From tests conducted in different
sections of the state the following va
rieties are recommended: Fulqaster,
Dietz Mediterranean, Leap Prolific,
Georgia Red (also known as Bluestem,
Purple Straw and Red May).
The principles to be followed in
sowing fall wheat may be summed up
as follows: (1) Plow early and give
the land time to settle before sowing,
if possible. (2) Use a roller and har
row to compact, the late plowed land.
(3) Where wheat is to follow a culti
vated crop that is removed from the
land, prepare the seed bed with a disk
harrow. (4) Make a good seed bed.
The increased yield will pay for the
trouble. (5) Use a grajn drill, using
sound, plump, clean seed of one of
the varieties recommended. (6) Make
the soil fertile with manure or fertiliz
ers applied judiciously where needed.
(7) tlse formaldehyde to prevent
tosses from smut.
The State College of Agriculture has
Just issued a bulletin on growing wheat
and rye which is available for free
distribution. —(R. R. Childs, State Col
lege of Agriculture.)
MARKETING DEPENDS
ON ANNUAL SUPPLIES
Don’t Have To Buy Back Prooucts
Sold At Beginning Of Season
In disposing of his products the
farmer should first answer the fol
lowing questions: (1) Is the commod
ity to be sold. an actual surplus con
sidering iris annual needs? (2) Is it in
condition to market? (3) When is the
best time to sell?
Influenced by the lure of high prices
and the desire to hear the cash “jin
gle in his jeans,” the average farmer
■is often induced to sell not only the
surplus products from his farm, but
much that is needed for home con
sumption. Many farmers in this State
sold corn at less than a dollar a bushel
during the fail of 1916, and in less
than six months bought it back for
more than double that price.
When there is no guarantee that
each succeeding yearn crops will suf
fice for its needs, it is the part of
wisdom to conserve a little more than
one would ordinarily expect to need
tor home use during the ensuing year.
One of the most important factors
i’ marketing farm crops is their prep
aration for market. The Southern
farmer is a rather shrewd buyer, but
a somewhat inefficient salesman. Our
principal money crop having been cot
ton, we have not given much attention
to the sale of other products, and, as
a consequence, we havy not learned
how to prepare them for market. It
is true that there are a few special
crops, such as peaches, which go on
the market in good shape; hut it has
taken years to develop the peach
growers in the matter of grades and
standards. We must realize the im
portance of quality and appearance in
the sale of our products.
A point seldom stressed in connec
tion with farm practice is the
distribution of the sale of commodities
throughout the year. To illustrate :
Suppose we knew now that before an
other- cotton crop -should be harvested
there would be urgent need for thir
teen million bales and that this year's
crop would amount to only twelve mil
lion. Under these conditions it would
seem that the presentVrop could be
harvested and sold immediately to a
eood advantage, but we have long
since learned that, no matter how
short the crop, it must be sold gradu
ally if we expect good prices. Why
is it we cannot realize that the same
fundaments principle holds true in the
handling of other crops?
The United States Bureau of Mar
kets has in its employ over four hun
dred men. the Georgia State College of
Agriculture over a hundred. All of
the are at your service. —(M. C. Gay,

peanuts bring high
PRICE WHEN STACKED
Vines Ripen Normally And Give a
Bright, Nutritious Hay Equal
To Ccwpea Vines
Instead of small, wrinkled nuts and
poor quality hay, as results from sun
oured peanuts, stacked peanuts ripen
normally and develop heavy nuts of
excellent quality along with a bright,
nutritious hay equ*} to cowpea hay for
feeding purposes, says Mr. Tabor of
the State College of Agriculture.
To stack peanuts select a stout pole
eight to ten feet high, set firmly In
the ground and nail two cross pieces
about a foot above the ground. The
peanut vines should be gathered be
fore they dry out and piled about the
pole. The first vines are placed on
the cross pieces with the nuta toward
the pole and the stack should be one
vine thick as measured from the pole.
The stacks are made as high as one
can conveniently reach and the tops
capped with grass to keep the birds
from the nuts at the top of the stack.
Five to six weeks is generally long
enough to allow for curing, though the
peanuts will keep longer in the stack
If other farm work is pressing. When
the peanuts are to be hauled to the
picker, the poles are loosened and the
stacks loaded without tearing them up.
In unloading grasp the poles below the
cross pieces, and shako the entire
stack on the picker or thresher.
The acreage of peanuts in Georgia
has increased according to crop esti
mates, 220 per cent this year. Mills
in southwest Georgia crushing cotton
seed have arranged to take care of all
the peanuts offered and it is thought
that a considerable amount will he
crushed.
WOMEN TORTURED!
Suffer Terribly with Corns Because of
High Heels, but Why Care Now.
Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from corns. Women then pro
ceed to trim these pests, seeking re- j
lief, but they hardly realize the terri- |
b!e danger from infection, says a Cin
cinnati authority.
Corns can easily he lifted out with
the fingers if you will get from any
drug stove a quarter of an ounce of a
ding called freezone. This is suffi
cient to remove every hard or soft corn
or callus from one’s feet. You simply
apply a few drops directly ujam the
tender, aching corn or callus. The sore
ness is relieved at once and soon the
entire corn or callus, root and all, lifts
out without one particle of pain.
This freezone is a sticky substance
which dries in a momennt. It just
shrivels up the corn without inflaming
oi even irritating the surrounding tis
sue or skin. Tell your wife about
this. —Advt.
