Use Of Idle N Landsjmperative Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. The South possesses vast areas of land which have not .been cultivated up to the present time, yet are capa.- ble of growing large quantities of food at a reasonable cost if skillfully han dled. This applies not only to Idle farm land, but to the vacant lands sur rounding manufacturing plants and the cut-over lands belonging to lumber men. Some manufacturers are giving their employees one or two days off each week for the cultivation of these Iqnds; a patriotic example which should appeal to all employers. Few people realize that shipping facilities will be greatly curtailed this fall and winter and that Jt may be out of the question to ship supplies into the state, even should the West -have a large surplus. Therefore, even though the production is normal, it may be im possible for the South to obtain the surplus of other sections. On the oth er hand, if the food production is a partial failure, there may be acute suf fering in 'the South, which can be pre vented only by the careful utilization of all agricultural lands in the produc tion of food and forage. This is imper ative. Bankers and Brokers , Show Fine Patriotism ;annoweat CORN AND BANANAS Mrs. Westbrooks Says Her Litile Daughter Was Always Delicate ipal Soil Types of Georgia L. M.

She could not eat hardly anything at all. and sleep was Impossible for her, and it was pitiful to see her in that condition, and to think, too, that we had done everything we could without any benefits from Especially in the summer depend very largely on other factor* than the plant food content. Drainage, physical and mechanical condition, or ganic matter and thoroughness and (fopth of tillage will all have much to do with the soil’s ability to 'give up its plant food to crops. Undoubt edly, too, the mineral forms-in which the plant food elements occur will greatly influence their availability.^ Es pecially is this true of the potash and phosphoric acid. Experiments seem- to indicate that the..soils of the Lime stone Valleys and those of the-Coastal Plain give up their potash more readily than~TIo the soils of the Piedmont Pla teau and the Appalachian Mountains. It will be readily seen that nitrogen is deficient in all soils of the state, excepting some of ‘the bottom lands. Increasing the nitrogen content is of first importance in any system of soil building. Phosphoric acid is also gen erally deficient With a few excep tions, the soils of north and middle Georgia are well, supplied with potash, though the.poor physical and mechan ical condition of the soli retards the processes that bring iLipto availabil ity.

She is just asLbright and cheerful as she can be, and it has made us all mighty happy about her re covery, and we are all glad to recommend Tanlac as being the medicine that has done what lots of other medicines failed to do.

Fain, Prof, of Agronomy, Georgia State College of Agr. With a large per cent of the oat crop killed by the freezes, the problem of an early forage crop becomes Import ant. Com Is as promising as any we have both for grain and forage. Some of the early varieties like Adams Early mature in 90 td 100 days or Hickory' Kfng In 115 to 120. The yields of these will not he as large as the yields of our plain, potash is uniformly low, and should be a constituent of all fertiliz ers when it can be had at a reason able price. The need of potash will be more keenly felt the longer the present potash famine continues. standard prolific corns but a small area might well be devoted to them for early grain. Corn sown broadcast at the rate of a bushel per acre will produce forage more quickly than almost any other crop. It glows off much faster than Sorghum and will be ready for use. earlier. After Itjs cut the land can go into cowpeas for hay provided an early variety of corn has been used and early planting practiced.' In this way the shortage of feedstuffs in tha Spring can be largely averted.
