Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture Every tiny infant makes life’s per spective wilier and brighter. And what ever there is to enhance its arrival aad to ease and comfort the expectant mother should be given attention. Among the real helpful things is an external ab dominal application known as "Mother's Friend." There is scarcely a community but wnnt. has its enthusiastic admirer of this splendid embrocation. It is so well thought of by Women who know that most drug stores throughout the United States carry "Mother's Friend" ns one of their staple and reliable remedies. It is applied to the abdominal muscles to relieve the strain on ligaments and tendons. Those who have used It refer to the ease and comfort experienced during tho period of expectancy: they particularly refer to the absence of nausea, often so prevalent ns a result of the natural expansion. In a llttlo hook are described more fully the many reasons why "Mother's Friend" has been a friend indeed to women with timely hints, sug gestions and helps for ready reference, it should he in all lipines.

It would now seem essential that they aid him in finding a satisfactory market for what ho raises. While farmers of the South cannot be expected to soon raise, for instance, enough grain to make it worth while to construct warehouses and elevators, it would seem possible for the merchants to co-operate, grade and ship in cur-load lots to the advantage of all parties concerned. Should a merchant feel that lie does not want to disturb his connection with organizations that supply him western liny and grain, he must then cease doing business with the farmer who has hig diversified farm products for sale, which he will hardly want to do if the movement is of any conse quence in his community. It is doubtless true that N)e farm er does not know how to grade and pack his products for the market. It will be impossible to teach him Imme diately, do what we may. Therefore, as has been suggested, the merchant who lakes the products may do the grading and find it worth while. Of course, a greater part of tho farm produce that the Southern farmer will have for sale, will be turned over to the country merchant in ex change for goods. The merchant gets a prollt off of ills goods, of course, and if lie then will grade and pack properly for the market, as he can with several commodities, he will he In position to make another profitable transaction. Much can he accomplished both in aid of diversification and in market ing, by boards of trades of towns and cities. Why should they not make a census of the possible produ o for sale in a given trade radius, ob tain the co-operation of merchants or farmers for large shipments and di rect attention of the large dealers to the business to be obtained? Why should trade organizations not system atically wage a campaign of education about grading and marketing definite crops suited to a given area? The State College of Agriculture has the information, it is perfectly willing to do everything in its power, but its resources are, of course, limited and, only through co-operation with local organized ugencies cun it accomplish the largest amount of good. This co operation il welcomes to the end alone that tho College may do its educative work. Fertilizer Curtailment in 1915. Albany Herald, . A man who controls several thousand acres of farm land in Dougherty coun ty, and who has given a great deal of serious thought to the problems con fronting the Southern farmers this year, states that whereas he used last year an averagof six tons of com mercial fertilizer to the plow, be will use this year only one ton. The plan which this thoughtful planter has worked out for his farming operations is not materially dilferent from those of the average farmer. A few planters may use more than a ton of commercial fertilizer to the plow, hut on the other hand there are ninny who will use none. The result will Lo a greatly reduced yield of cotton, even should there be nothing like as great a curtailment of the cotton acreage as is forecasted. The industrial and tinan- t'ial world will await with a great deal of interest the first Government report showing the cotton acreage of the Southern States, hut an entirely new basis for estimating probable produc tion will have to be employed, owing to the enormous retrenchment of planters in the use of commercial fertilizers. Cholera Serum Reduced Dr. W. M. Burson, Prof. Vet. Science, Ga. State College Of Agriculture. Beginning with January 1, 1915, tho price of hog cholera serum manufac tured by the state at tho College of Agriculture was reduced so that It now sells at 1 1-4 cents per cubic centimeter Instead of 1 1-2 cents. Tho new price is just half what it was in 1912, when it was first offered for sale by the state. Recent reports of demonstration agents in Georgia who administered hog cholera serum show 212 herds treated. Cholera already existed in these herds. In fact, 410 hogs had died of the disease before tho sc rum was administered, and 447 were sick of It when treated. The total sick and well treated was 6.629. Of this number 336 died after treatment. The percentage lost was 5.09 and the per centage saved was 91.91. Champion Pig Of The Pig Clubs James E. Downing, Organizer Pig Clubs, Georgia State College Of Agriculture. The champion pig club boy of Geor gia is Evans Jackson, Madison, It. F. D. 4. His record shows that lie pur chased a pure bred pig six weeks old for $7.50. He fed it $10.25 worth of feed and when it was ten months old it weighed 320 pounds. It look (lie sweepstakes prize at the state fair and he values it at $00.00, which it is well worth. Oil this basis his profit is $42.25. Be sides this he won prizes mid a schol arship to tho short course of the Col lege worth considerably more. The gains in weight for ills pig cost 3.4 cents per pound. A circular has been issued by the college for use of the members of tho pig clubs. It tells how to join and carry on the work. What The Corn Club Boys Are Doing And Can Do Pres. Andrew M. Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture A wife will insist that the husband shall not go out of the house cold, raw days without two undershirts, a liver pad and a muffler on, in addition lo his regular clothes. Yet as soon as he is safely dow n town she will rush out of the hot kitchen bare-headed and bare-armed to hang out clothes, so as to get ahead of the woman next door; or, she will tramp off down town and from house to house to work up some society or church enterprise with noth ing on her head but a little saucepan of a hat, and shoes, no thicker than a newspaper, isn't this so?—Jones Coun ty News. Well, tho mystery of the speckled hen that came to the editor’s home has been solved. A young man was mov ing from South Carolina to Georgia. As the wagon with the chickens passed the editor’s home this particular hen Hew out and lighted in our yard. The owner saw our ad. of last week and came for the hen. He couldn’t catch Iter and wo didn’t have the money to pay him for her, so we just traded him a subscription to The Times for her. So that hen is ours now and the titles are perfectly good. We have reformed her a little, too. She is now roosting in the chicken house and associating with the other chickens. — Lavonia Times.

X-'oi .idultr and children. 50c More than 113 boys in Georgia be longing to the corn club made over 100 bushels of corn to the acre dur ing tiie past year. They are remark able yields, but they have been certi fied to by disinterested and reliable citizens. The Bureau of Crop Esti mates of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture reports that there had been a falling off in yields owing to the protracted drouth of the spring of last year. It is, therefore, the more remarkable that the very high yields should be obtained during an adverse year. It shows that with proper meth ods of preparation of the. land and proper cultivation, large crops can be grown in spite of drouths. By all means encourage the hoy to join the corn club. Get the acre in the best of shape and let him go in for a record-breaker yield this year. The ever-increasing usefulness and value of the boys’ corn clubs is amply demonstrated and their work must prove a source of inspiration to every progressive farmer. No doubt it is impractical to quadruple tile yield of corn in the Southeastern slates in a single year, but it. certainly is possible to double the yield with a result which could not be correctly estimated on a dollars and cents basis. That the corn crop of tiie South will materially in crease from year to year is shown by what lias been accomplished within the last decade, and just as soon as a large enouglt number of the boys who are now members of tiie clubs come into possession of the landed areas of tiie state, they will proceed by reason of the success they have had to in crease the yield of corn and tho area of land devoted to it until an adequate supply of this essential cereal is raised for all the purposes in which it can be devoted profitably in the South. Boys with records are a valuable as set to any community because they il lustrate something well worth while. They show how theories can lie trans lated from tiie realm of possibility into concrete results. They constitute in fected areas of new ideas in tho com munities in which they reside. Their example is sooner or laler emulated by their friends and neighbors, and the repuiation they establish for them selves and ilie locality they represent becomes one of its most valued and treasured assets.
