We not only shipped large quantities of it abroad, but we ate more of it during the war period than at any previous time in our history. Corn was the one acceptable substitute which we could use in almost unlimited quan tities in place of wheat. Without it we would not have attained the ad vancement and development which now characterizes this nation. Corn furnishes the chief concentrated food of our work animals, and it Is the basis of practically all rations used for the fattening of livestock. There fore its cultivation is of universal importance. Corn is, in its possibilities, the greatest food crop in the world be cause with a suitable climate and soil it will produce about twice as much grain per acre as any of the other grain crops. The fact that so much of the United States has a climate favorable for raising corn and con tains so much good corn land ac counts very largely for her wealth and prosperity. Corn is native to America and was unknown to the civilized world before America was discovered. At that time the Indians all over North and South America were cultivating corn, and it certainly has been grown for many hunderd years before white men landed on the shores of the new world. Ever since the first settlers ar rived. corn has played a very import ant part in the history of our coun try. Every boy who has studied his tory knows that the corn that these Indians shared with these early set tlers actually kept them from starv ing. The Indians taught the white men how to raise corn, and for a long time it was the principal food of the colonists. Certainly the rapid settle ment of the colonies would have been impossible without the corn crop. Later this same crop made it possi ble to settle and develop the great central part of the country so rap idly. In 1917 3,065.000.900 bushels of corn valued at $3,528,303,000 were produced in the United States, or three-fourths of all the corn grown in the wolrd. These figures are so large that one cannot comprehend them. If this corn could be evenly divided, every man. woman and child in the country would have thirty bushels of corn. If all the grain of all kinds grown in Europe was evenly divided, it would give each inhabi tant but about fifteem bushels. If the corn crop of the United States could be put in wagons holding fifty bushels each, and each wagon allow ed a space of .twenty feet, it would require seventy-five rows of wagons reaching from New-York city to San Francisco, a distance of 3,000 miies. to hold it all. The wheat crop is the most important crop of the world, but the corn ' crop of the United States is three-fourths. as large as the wheat crop, of the world. .It is one and a half times as large as the oat crop of the entire world, by weight, and one and a half times as large as the rice crop or the rye crop of the world. Is it any wonder that corn is called “King Corn” in America? You may wonder , why corn-is not more extensively grown in other countries since it is, such a valuable crop. As a matter of fact, corn is CREATES EXCITEMENT I ALL OVER THE STATE i—Z3W—a . hi i' "in. unnn-mumi / yi © lifes" / a t) johim PoauntOY The eminent New Zealand scientist whose theory that 90. per cent of all illness results! from disordered stomachs, haw created so much talk here.

S i Pzaslee-Gaulbert Co., Louisville, Ky, K Incorporated a.' probably nearly as extensively grown as possible, for outside of the United States there are few large areas where the climate and soils are suit able for the crop. Argentina ranks next to the United States in pro duction, but it produces but about one-fifteenth as much as this coun try. Considerable corn is also pro duced in Europe in the countries that border on the Mediterranean. The preparation of an ideal seed bed should begin in the fall rather than in the spring. Most lands in Georgia can be easily and profitably broken to a depth of ten inches. This is especially true of r.orth and middle Georgia soils. A cover crop of rye or oats should be sown on all fall plowed lands in order to pre vent washing and also to utilize the plant food that becomes available. Unless this is done leaching will oc cur. If the land has a good growth of any kind on it, such as velvet beans, cowpeas, or simple native grasses and weeds, it should be turn ed early and left rough if no cover crop can be sown. I Winter or fall breaking has many advantages over spring breaking. First, it is done at a time when work on the farm is not rushing; second, it stores up a. large amount of moisture for use of the next crop; third, it warms up earlier; fourth, it destroys a great many insects and makes use of the vegetation. In planning for a large yield of corn three things should be noted. First, that corn requires a large amount of water through the grow ing season: second, it uses large amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash; and third, it requires a fer tile, well drained soil that is rich in vegetable matter. The above requirement will gen erally be found in a well drained bottom soil rather than on average upland. If a bottom soil is selected on which to make a record yield, it should not be subject to overflow, and. in order to insure the proper drainage that is essential for a max imum crop, the water table should not be nearer than three feet to the surface. If upland is selected for a large yield of corn, the same requirements should be considered. Do not expect a large yield from droughty land un less the season is especially favor able as regards rainfall. There is no assurance that the season ■ will al ways be favorable, therefore, this kind of soil should not be used if other is available. The best kind of upland soil is a loam, sandy loam or clay loam. Either of these types of soil should have a heavy loam, sandy clay or clay subsoil that will naturally retain the film moisture as well as the soluble plant food within reach of the plant roots. The soil is a medium for holding water and food in an available foi*n for the plants to use as it is needed by them, and, briefly stated, a good corn soil should be naturally fertile, productive, well drained, and one that can be retained in a good me chanical condition. A good seed bed is 50 per cent of the crop. Upon this depends the success in producing a large yield. The seed bed is th ehome of the plant and from it will receive the largest part of its food and water. Therefore, in order to insure a plen tiful supply of food and water, as well as a favorable conditon of the soil for the penetration of the plant roots, the seed bed should be deep, well pulverized, friable and thor oughly mixed with vegetable matter. When natural conditions are right farm manures generally give good re sults, though they may often be sup plemented with commercial fertilizers to an advantage. When manure is not to be had in sufficient amounts commercial fertilizer may be used to supply the plant food needed by the . crop in excess of the natural fertility. As an example, suppose a field will produce twenty-five bushels of corn per acre without any fer tilizer treatment, if the yield is to be increased to fifty bushels per acre, a sufficient amount of available plant food must be supplied to the soil to meet the needs of the in creased yield. Application of 400 pounds per acre of fertilizer composed- of equal parts of acid phosphate and cottonseed meal is recommended by some for ordinary yields. This could be dou bled whi re large yields are expect ed. Soils that are rich in organic matter need nothing further than acid phosphate at the rate of 400 to 800 pounds per acre. Estimates on Sugar Beets Heaven may temper the wind to the shorn lamb, but does not always add sweetening to the pulp of a sugar beet during a sugar famine. Figures compiled by the bureau of crop estimates show a slight falling off in the amount of sugar extracted from the sugar beets in 1919 when compared, pound for pound, with 'the crops of preceding years. In the United States, and including the best crop from 50 acres in Ontario, 5,8'87,- 557 short tons of beets produced. 726,- 451 short tons of sugar in 1919, while 5,577,506 tons of beets from the same sources in 1918 gave us 760,950 tons of sugar. In 1919, moreover, the average pro duction of beets pei' acre was 9.27 tons, while the average in 1918 was 10.01 tons. The 1919 crop sold for $11.74 per ton of 2,000 pounds as against $lO for the 1918 crop, and the total value of the two crops was $75,420,000 and $59,494,000. resneetivelv. MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME Dear Miss Meredith: I am a girl of seventeen summers coming to you for advice. Can you please tell me what will remove pimples? Should a girl write to a boy and not let her parents know it, if they object? Do you think I am too young to have company and go with young men if another girl goes, too? I have two very dear boy friends and my parents object to me speaking to one of them and I love him dearly. They don’t like for me to go with any boy which they think I like. Both of these young men have proposed to me. One is a farm er, twenty-four years old, the other is a soldier, twenty-six years old. I like both of them but like the farm er the best, and my parents seem to hate him. I have known him for several years and know him to be a good boy. Do you think it is all right for a girl to marry without her parents’ consent? What should a girl tell a boy when he says he loves her and asks her to marry him? Is it all right to correspond with a boy you have not met personally? I will finish high school this year. Do you think 1 am too young to marry? About ten boys have proposed' to me. In fact, I never go with a boy hard ly but what he asks me to marry him. I tell them I am too young. But several have joined the army on that account. How soon should a girl answer a boy’s letter? Thank ing you for your advice, I hope to see this in print. “BROWN-EYED BEAUTY.” I expect your parents have a reason, when they forbid you to accept the attentions of a man they dislike. Your mother and father are your best friends, my dear, and when they give advice, as a rule, they know what they are talking about. You are still very young and life is just open ing its doors to you, why not try to get some of its whole some pleasures without filling your head with so much ro mance? Men are all right and it'is nice to have them as one's friends, but you are so young 1 wouldn’t think of marriage just yet. And don't deceive your par ents. In after years you may , regret it. Just go ahead and ‘ have an innocent, good time, wait until you are older then Mr. Right will come along and you will then know what real love is. But don't let them fill your head with a lot of nonsense. They don’t mean all they say, you know. Be careful of your diet, don’t eat a lot of greasy food, keep the face free of pow der for a while, and use a good soap, castile is the best, rinse witih cold water, that will have a tendency to close the pores of your skin. I am a jolly girl, coming to you for advice; age eighteen and’ in the ninth grade. I want to finish high school; am not in any hurry to marry. I am in love with a young man, twenty years of age; he has QUIZ New Questions 1— Q. Is it true that the tomato was once considered poisonous? 2Q. When was butter first made? 3Q.

The word raisin is generally used to refer to the dried grape. Raisin grapes are usually the product of warm climates and contain from 20 to 30 per cent of sugar. The prin cipal and most valuable class of raisin grapes is the muscatel. The seedless raisins of commerce are largely Sultana grapes. The smallest ones come from the currant grape. 2. —Q, What effect have increased freight rates had on the price of men’s' clothin? 2. —A. Very little. The association of railway executives has advertised that whereas the pre-war cost of transporting a suit of men’s clothes more than 2,000 miles was 16 1-2 cents, the present cost is but 22 cents, an increase of only 5 1-2 cents. 3. —Q. Was Canada ever invaded by the Irish? 3. —A. In 1866 a proposed expedi tion of 10,000 men resulted in 500 Fenians crossing the border from New York and Vermont. They de feated the Canadian militia, but were forced to abandon their campaign for lack of reinforcements and supplies. 4. —Q. Who and what are the “Rice Leaders of the World?” 4. —A. “The Rice Leaders of the World” is, an organization composed of one representative concern from each class of industry in the world. Being a member of this association signifies that, in the judgment of a committee'of certain people of note, that firm is the leader in its line. 5. —Q. 'What was the number of the airplane in which Quentin Roosevelt met his death? 5.—A. The air service department says that the airplane in which Lieu' once loved me better than any other girl in the world and was true; he would tell me everything. He is a fine boy, liked by everybody; he has been at work twenty miles away from me for seven months and he seems as if he has grown careless since he has gone there. He had never been with any other girl ex cept me, and hasn’t been with any other one as I know of until he went away this fall. I think he goes with some of the girls there now. He and I have been going together regular for three years. He always gives me nice ’ presents Christmas. He gave me a nice one last Christ mas. I did and still put more con fidence in him than any boy I have ever been with. The man he works with has a family and is a flirt with the young girls. He is nice and pleasant when he comes io see me now. I don’t care anything about any other boy in the world. I know there is no time lost with me in getting married. He hasn’t asked me to marry him, but said for me to finish school and he would do some kind of work until I finished. Would you' advise me to forget him only as a friend. Or what do you think would be best for me to do? We never get mad and fuss any. I* say something to him about the othei’ girls sometimes. Please give me advice. I think the young man still things a great deal of you but he is in another town and like so many other men, sees a great deal of other girls. The mar ried man might have a bad in fluence over him, but I wouldn’t give him up if I were you. I wouldn/t chide him for his indifference but when you hear from him or see him, casually mention some other boy’s name. A man likes to have some one else in the race. A woman never won a man yet by nagging him. I would keep up a correspond ence with him and write him very lively, interesting letters and he will see there are things you are interested in besides himself. That will hurt his van ity and he will be nicer to you. The minute a man sees a woman is in love with him then he be gins to lose interest. I know of a married woman’s husband who is a great flirt, and would leave her in a minute if he thought he could boss her. She is deeply in love with him but she acts indifferently and seems to like the society of other men, but she knows that is the surest way of holding the husband she loves. tenant Roosevelt was flying when he was'killed was No. 14. t>. —Q. Could there be a rainbow at noon, or before sunset? 6. A. The United States naval ob servatory says that this is possible. In latitude 40 degrees there might be a rainbow at noon between the middle of October and the first of March. The upper portion of a rain bow may be formed a few minutes before sunrise. 7. Q. What is the highest official position ever held by a negro in the United States? 7. —A. Probably that of United States senator. A negro, Hiram K. Revell, was senator from Mississippi shortly after the end of the Civil war. 8. —Q. Are the bones of birds hol low? 8. —A. All birds have some hollow bones. Ostriches and their relatives have only the bones of the head so constructed, w'hile each bone in the body of a hornbill is hollow. 9. —Q. What is meant by the Hegira? 9. —A.

The Country Home BY MRS. W. H. FELTON GAMBLING —A WORD TO BOYS AND GIRLS In the early periods of my life church people and country people did not gamble and play cards. Good country schools were scarce, but I was able to attend a school in Oxford, Ga., and one of the qualifi cations for the town was the fact that people did not dance, did not drink liquor and did not play cards. Eighty years ago those things were dangerous, as before stated, and my parents wanted their eldest little girl to board and attend school in a com munity where good people lived, and where they were sane and sensible. In those days when persons professed to be religious the members of the church did not dance, v did not get drunk and did not play> cards. Either of these ailments would call tor a church committee and a church trial and more than likely a dismissal from the ledger of the church as a com municant and a member. I am not going to say anything about phurch members who dance or those who get drunk. The prohi amendment takes care, or should take care, of the drinking of intoxicants. A good many people contend that?a person has the full liberty to drink all the liquor he wants to drink, even until he sees snakes and dies in delirium tremens. If such a person could be isolated from society and could hurt nobody but his own poor fool selft. there might be some force in the con tention. . But the sot can kill his wife, starve his children and shoot his neighbor while he is insane from the intoxicants. Common sense and common jus tice demands that everybody shall behave themselves, and no person shall be granted liberty to shoot up the community because he is willing to make a hog of himself by getting drunk and playing the fool generally. I, therefore, confine my written re marks at this time to the gambling craze that is pervading the United States, and which will drag many poor souls to perdition and carry thousands to the penitentiary and some to the gallows, for history al ways repeats itselr. A good many years ago, while the good Queen Victoria reigned in Great Britain her son Edward, heir to the throne and jater the king of the British dominions, was called into court to testify as to a dreadful gambling cheat and in which he was known to be present and a player. It was a dreadful mortification to his mother. She and her husband. Prince Albert, were Christian peo ple, and stood for good things ev erywhere. But tehir son was not so particular in his habits or his com pany. If he had been the man he should have been, he would not have been caught with gamblers who cheated and were exposed and prose cuted,. The prince had to confess that checks or "counters” each valued at $25, were shipped into his sleeve, because the gang were delighted to play in royal company, and he was not.above taking his chances in the game. He never regained the high place he had once field in the es teem of his subjects. He was lucky to escape a term in prison. Dear boys (and girls, too), play ing such games, fosters" habits and incites gambling passions that are dangerous and which grow with their growth and endure to the end. The easily tempted are sure to go down and under. As a rule, they crave intoxicants to spur tuem on, just as the demimonde crave liquor to make their low life tolerable. I may be an old fogy, but I am so afraid of gambling insanity that I never touch a playing card,. I might perchance escape and die in my bed. but J might by example tempt somebody who could not refrain until they were ruined and destroyed.
