NEWNAN HERALD fj E W N A N , FRIDAY, NOV. 5. ONE DOLLAR A YEAR IN ADVANCB. To Corn Club Boys. Dear Club Member: Thu Corn Club boys have made some very fine yields and good profits on their acres. Several hundred hoys last year Brew one aere in oats and followed with peas for hay. They also grew an acre cotton. The acre in corn gave an average profit of $58 SC, the acre in cotton a profit of $38.51, and the acre in oats followed with peas for hay gave an average pro fit of $62.54. Now, tioys, which ucres were in the best shape for crops this year? How would you like to try your hand in this oat-growing contest? Stay in the Corn Club, but. also see what you can do with oats and peas. Join the other hoys in this line of work by sow ing your acre at once. Many premiums will be given next year to the boys who do best. You cun win one if you try real hard. Prepare your land well and allow it to settle before planting, as onts will require a firm seed-bed. Unless your land is already very fertile, it will pay to apply some manure or commercial fertilizer before sowing, and in the spring make an application of 75 or 100 pounds of some good top dressing. Sow the variety that does best in your community, and get home-grown seed if possible. The Appier, Cnlberson, Bancroft, Fulghum and Hastings Hun dred Bushel oats all do well in this State. Rust and smut are two pests that damuge much grain in Georgia. There fore, insure yourself against these poHts by growing a rust-proof variety, after you have treated the seed with formalin to prevent smut. The bent results are had when oats Afe sown in the open furrow or with the grain drill. These two methods are practiced by the best of farmers of the State and reduce winter-killing to a minimum. Sow at the rute of from 2 to 2J bushels per aero just as soon us you possibly can. Early sown oats are always better. Thursday, Nov. 18, is Club Day at the Corn Show in Atlanta. Make ar rangements to attend this show if pos- ible, ns you will be well repaid for your time. Free entertainment will be given all the boys who attend. Yours very truly, Wrn.

Ticks Suck 200 Pounds ol Blood From a Steer. “Ticks take ns much ns 200 pounds of blood a year from a 1,000-pound steer; cut the milk production of cows nearly fit) per cent.; reduce the homo price of meat animals from one-half to one cent a pound; prevent bankers from lendingl money to promote the live-stock industry; keep down fertility and production of farms; and make the Southern farmers pay fifty million dol lars a year to supply the never-ceasing barbecue of blood,” writes a contribu tor in the current issue of Farm and Fireside. How the Government is lighting the tick is shown by this extract; “Dip the tick" is the slogan which the Department of Agriculture has adopted for a special campaign against the cattle tick in the South. Blazoned in big letters this legend will stand out in startling relief upon a two-colored poster which the department proposes to display in every postoffice in the tick-iiifestid country. “It costs less than 50 cents a head to dip the cattle of a county and free that county from quarantine,” said Mr. Vromnan, Assistant Secretary of Agri culture of the United Stutis, “and en able its,[cattle yto compete with free cattle at the stockyards. But before the ticks can be cleaned from a county the people in that county, by them selves or with the aid of tfie State, must build dipping vats, which cost from $50 to $100 each, and must supply arsenic, which costs about 0 cents per head, to make the arsenical bath that kills the ticks. The people must then join in seeing thnt every steer or eow is dipped a sulllcient number of times to kill all the ticks infesting the cattle, and preventing the seed-ticks in the grass from finding a new boarding house. This department will co-operate by sending its expert field men to su pervise the building of vats, to prepare the arsenical hath, und to take charge of the dipping of cattle. The people of a county and State, however, have to provide the small amount of money necessary for the actual dipping." Unkind words do as much harm as unkind deeds.

SWAMPED WITH PROFITS. Story ot the Potent on tile Screw With the Gimlet Point. Perhaps the shortest patent applica tion extant Is the one on tile in the patent office at Washington, which reads, "I c laim a patent on a screw With a gimlet point." Previous to that all screws used in woodwork had been of the blunt end variety, and Hie carpenter had to care fully bore a hole with a gimlet or au ger before Inserting his screw and forcing It home. The advent of the screw with a gimlet point which would' bore itself tn revolutionized this. This patent was held by the Ameri can Screw company of Providence. It. 1 , and before the patent ran out and It was impossible for others to manu facture it without damage salts lids' company made tremendous profits. The demand for the gimlet pointed screw was. of course. Immense, and the company dhl not know what to do with Its profits. All of Its dray horses were carefully selected blacks, and tremendous prices were paid for good slock. The harness was of patent leather trimmed with red, while the wagons plying back and forth tie!ween the factory and the docks or i tic railroad bad rod under gear to nmteh the harness trimmings, and Hie u heels were decorated with gold leaf. 1 I carat line.

Every man should how at least one acre of wheat and two acres of oats for every head of stock he plows. All seed should be treaud for blast or smut, before sowing. The following is a sure preventative for smut. It has been tried often, and is used by hun dreds of fanners the country over; To one pound of full-strength for malin add 40 gallons of water. Place the gruin on a clean floor, and with a sprinkling pot apply one t allon of the formalin solution to each bushel of grain. Turn theoats with a shovel until all are thoroughly wet. The seed should then be cov. red with a canvas or sack for two hours, after which they should be spread out to dry. Where the seed are sown by hand immediately after treatment, drying is unnecessary. Formalin can be had at any first- class drug store, and at a cost of Ies3 than two cents per bushel. A farmer wrote to the editor of an agricultural paper as follows: "I have a horse that has been afflict ed for Ihe last yeir with periodica! fits of dizziness. Please let me know what I should do with him, as he seems to get worse instead of better. I am afraid he will be unfit for work if some thing is not done soon."
