Storing in hills and pits is not very practicable. We~*caunot afford to lose this year the potatoes that normal ly rot under such conditions. . The most approved method of sweet potato storing is to harvest the crop as soon as it is mature, to thoroughly grade the potatoes, throwing out all the bruised, injured or rotting ones. These may be immediately used~either on the table or fed to hogs, if they .are not fit.for table use. The good pota toes should then be carried to a stor age house. This storage house should he made with dead air space In the walls and with a double roof. The potatoes are carried into this house and put on trays or bins in the sides of the house. A stove is in the cen ter of the sweet potato room and the temperature is brought to from 90 to 1G0 degrees, where it is held for a week or 10 days until the potatoes have gone through their sweat. After this the.fire-is allowed to go out ; - the temperature is kept between 50 and 60 degrees. This may necessi tate a fire being built in the stove from time to time during the winter. tt may be rather early for this i formation tfl he given out, but now is the time for the Georgia farmer to think about the conservation of nia food supplies through the winter. The sweet potato house Bhoufd be built before the crop is harvested. How To Save Onions T. H. McHatton, Professor Of Horti- culture, State College of Agri. The great trouble that the Geor gia farmer has with onions is hold ing them through the winter. The fol lowing methods of handling are rec ommended in order to save the onion crop. The usual practice is not to harvest onions until the tops r**“ thoroughly dead. This, under « conditions, is.a mistake. As soon i the first few- inches of ttyj top begins to yellow and die the onions should be either plowed out with a small one-horse plow, or one should go through, the field with a potato hook or tine hoe arid pull each onion over on its side. In this way the .top dies down..and dries out without making a point of entry for water into the onions where the top beuds and splits Just above the bulb. After the top has died and dried and the onion has pretty well dried out it should he removed from the field and spread in a well ventilated, airy place. Here the curing is completed. After this tho tops may be removed and ’ the onions put in racks or crates in a storage room where they may be pro tected from freezing. If the Georgia farmer can save the onion crop this year, even the small crop of home garden, It will mean a great deal of food for use this winter.

In Bse For Over 3® Years The Kind You Have Always Bought “TH t CINTAUR COMPANY, NBW VOWK OITV. Increasing The Oil Content Of Cotton Seed By Selection L. E. Rast, Jr. Prof, of Agronomy; | Ga. State College of Agriculture. As a result of four years' work in the. Cotton Industry. Laboratory of the Georgia State College of Agriculture, it was found that the oil content of cotton seed is an inherent character istic of the variety and that the per centage of oil in the" seed of any va riety can be increased by selection with no corresponding loss of other desirable qualities. There are slight variations from year to year depend ing upon the season, hut these environ mental factors influence all varieties alike, and. the seed of varieties that were high in oil content the first year have remained so during subsequent' seasons. In a general way, the varie ties with the highest proportion of meats to hulls product the most oil; hut there is no positive correlation be tween percentage of meats and oi]_ content since the percentage of oiT in the meat varies with the variety. The difference between the seed of the highest and lowest oil yielding va rieties for the three,years was 10.4 gal lons pf?r ton. This means that by growing the superior sorts and elim inating the inferior ones the aver age value of cotton seed could he in creased $5.00 to % $10.00 per ton. T^elr Hunting Hours.
