Education ==%- .—AWD SUCCESSFUL FARMING ~Z7»K By Andrew M. iSovle Gardoiiing' For Girls We are frequently requested by teachers and interested readers to advise members bf the girls’ clubs about the nature and character of the work they should undertake from year to year. It is inadvisable that the girl continue to do the same things year after year. Let her change her policy somewhat each year. Add some new feature to the work. By this arrangement we give variety and add zest to the undertaking. We also train and develop the girls more effectually and add greatly to her accomplish ments. With this end in view, I present below, a summary of some of the suggestions made relative to the subject under discussion. We have a large number of women county agents in Georgia, and many of them have now been at work for several years. They are annually called into conference that those who supervise may be advised and informed as to the problems of the field workers. Out of these con ferences have grown the summary of suggestions set forth below. These attempts to indicate the na ture and character of the /work a girl should do during the first year of her enrollment in the can ning club. This is followed by sug gestions dealing with the work of the first, second and fourth years. A girl who wishes to join the canning club must, of course, par ticipate in the gardening, canning and sewing work outlined. She must also purchase the necessary equip ment and undertake to use club pro ducts in her home. The handling and marketing of any club products she may put up will be undertaken by the agent. This is necessary in order that the output of a given county may be standardized. Unless this is done, the club work might be brought intq disrepute by some carelessness, oversight, or neglect. In addition thereto, one girl would seldom have enough of any product to justify her attempting to market it on an individual basis. A part of the necessary, essential instruc tion of the canning club girls is to teach them the necessity of coop eration and the principles which underlie its successful institution in communities where the workers are separated as they are in the open country. First Year Work Gardening and Canning. One twentieth acre, chiefly tomatoes for canning. A girl may, if she desires, plant a full tenth acre. Club mem bers may plant string beans for home canning and the vegetables necessary for making soup mixture. Canning in tin to be undertaken for the first time. Soup mixture, creole sauce, string beans, and tomato /catsup may be put up for home use. Equipment. Make cane packing paddles. Purchase paring knife, tip ping copper, capping steel, scales, standard containers, canner, if pos sible. , , ~ Sewing. Make cup towel, holder, canning club cap and apron. Home Use of Club Products. Make cream of vegetables soup, cook veg etables from girl’s garden and make simple desserts from the fruits. This work can also be stressed in utili zation of club product in school lunches. Marketing. Products for market should be limited to plain canned tomatoes soup mixture or canned peaches. Local conditions should be considered in choosing products to be marketed. Second Year Work Gardening and Canning. One twentieth acre tomatoes and one other vegetable, either pimentos or string beans. A sufficient number of vegetables may be grown to make standard soup mixture or creole sauce. Standardize canned string beans, pepper products or soup mix ture. Also fruit and berry jams and marmalades. Peach preserves may also be made for home use. Perennials. Start perennial gard ens not later than beginning of sec ond year. Perennial crops shall con sist of Thomas and Luola varieties of muscadine grapes, asparagus, dewberries, figs, peaches or pecans. A girl is expected to select one or two perennials for definite work, looking toward the marketing of the products. She may also choose two or more other perennials to be grown in small quantities so that she may have a greater variety of products for home use. Ten or twelve crowns of asparagus will be found sufficient for the average famly and a fraction of the number of vines or trees designated for a marketing 'demon stration may be chosen for the pro duction of fresh fruits for the home. A demonstration in grapes for mar ket should consist of from five to ten vines of either Thomas or Luola variety or muscadine grapes, while six fig bushes should be planted, if figs be chosen. By planting differ ent varieties of figs, the season for fresh fruit may be prolonged. If JI berries be selected, fifty vines of the Eldorado variety of blackberries or of the Lucretia variety of dew berries should be planted. If a girl in north Georgia wishes to grow raspberries, the best variety of red raspberries is probably the Cuthbert: Cumberland and Farmer are the best 'black raspberry varieties and the Cardinal the best purple raspberry for the south. About fifty rasp berry vines should be planted, the greater majority should be of one, variety. In the peach belt many girls will want to plant peaches, or in south Georgia the girls may choose pecans. A demonstration in peaches should consist of 6 to 10 trees while with pecans one should set 6 trees. In many cases the set ting of perennials can be promoted by the purchase of nursery stock with prize money. Equipment. Make cane packing paddle, paddle for stirring jams and testing jelly. Purchase canner, puree sieve, food chopper, standard containers, spraying outfit, if pos sible. Sewing. Make emblems for cap and apron and make canning club dress. Stencil portfolio, book cover or wall pockets. Home Use of Club Products. Con tinue cooking of vegetables; make salad from fresh vegetables; make salad dressings; cook dried and can ned products when fresh ones are not in season. Marketing. Products for market may be those taught for home use in the previous year; only one or two products should be chosen in order that the girl may standardize her products and be able to devote enough time to the work to insure success. A list of products from which may be chosen one Or two for market are tomato catsup, string beans, canned pimentos, Dixie relish, berry jams and fruit marmalades. Gardening and Canning. One-twen tieth acre to be planted in three vegetables: tomatoes, pepper and string beans. Other crops may be cucumbers or chayotes for pickling, corn for drying or vegetables for making standard soup mixtures. Con tinue perennial plantings. If the per ennial garden is coming into bear ing, the girl may plant such food crops as peanuts or soy beans or both. Equipment. Make grape crusher and press. Purchase standard con tainers, thermometer, and good pre* serving kettle. (Buy saccharometer when needed.) Sewing. Make uniform dress, cap and apron, embroidering emblems. May make napkins and square lunch cloth embroiderin'g in cross stitch with fruit or vegetable designs for use at club entertainments. If these are not completed in third year, they may be finished in the fourth year. Home Use of Club Products. Cook vegetables making proper combina tions of starchy and succulent kinds. Make a loaf of dried beans or peas to be served with tomato or creole sauce Make sandwiches for supper and lunches, using left-over vegeta bles with salad dressing, peanut but ter, or pimentoes with cottage cheese, this work to contribute to the school lunch. Cook poultry products. Stress use of fruit juices and syr ups. Marketing. By the time the girl has been in the club three years she should have, developed skill enough to have established a market for certain products. These she should continue to\ market. In addition she may market jams, marmalades, fig conserve or peach preserves. Gardening and Canning. The per ennial garden and its products may consume the entire time or the girl may in addition raise such vegeta bles as may be used fresh or con served dry. These vegetables may occupy cne-twentieth acre and may be peanuts, soy beans, or some spe cial vegetables such as cucumber and chayote < for use in a canned product which the girl may have adopted for marketing. Make stand ardized grape, berry and fig products, also vinegar. May continue twen tieth acre if perennials have not been planted Equipment. Make sewing screen, make baskets of pine needles, willow reeds or oak splints for fancy gift packages. Purchase oil stove if pos sible and utensils suited to the wprk. Sewing. Make uniform dress, cap and apron if needed. Further work in sewing may be done according to problems outlined in bulletin on Sew ing for Girls’ clubs: Home Use of Cluo Products. Make yeast bread, using peanut and soy bean meal as wheat flour substitutes. Make sandwiches, using home-made .bread with peanut butter, pimento, cottage cheese, grape paste and poul try products. Cook poultry products. Use fruit juices and syrups in whole some and attractive ways. Marketing. Cucumber, chayote, fig, and watermelon pickles, fig ami, watermelon preserves, grape jam. cold pressed grape juice and vinegar. KUDZU VINES FOB HAY MAK ING A. B. H., Keysville, Va., writes: I Tiave been thinking of experi menting with Kudzu vines, and would like to know if you con sider it practical as a hay crop and a land improver. The Kudzu vine can be grovzn with considerable advantage on galled acreas of land at times. It will help to cover up such acreas by shading the land and lessening ero sion, and tends to enrich and improve the soil. We have not found it to be as rapid a grower in such locations as the many claims set up for it would indicate. On the other hand, it will yield a considerable amount of grazing in this climate, and some classes of stock will eat it with a fair amount of relish. We do not think it -would be good to feed to cows, as it glv<’s ii;e milk a very strong flavor. Beef cattle would eat i‘. to some a<'vantaire at timvs. We do not consider, from our exier’- ence, that it would be practicable to make, it into hay in this climate. TBBATMEJTT OF GARGET W. C., Arcadia, Fla., writes: When our milk begins to sour it gets stringy. We have boiled the bottles and done everything we knew to do. Can it be the water they drink or plants they eat. Any remedy you can sug gest will be appreciated. Stringy milk is caused by fungi developed in the liquid. The spores which cause this trouble may be present in the system of the cow. Troubles of this character frequent ly occur at this season of the year. As a rule, it is a temporary condi tion. Cows may recover in ten days or a fortnight. Then other animals in the same herd will be attacked. These fungi are not evident in the milk when it is first drawn, but after it stands for a few hours, their pres ence is easily detected. Troubles of this character frequently occur from cattie having access to water which is not pure or which has become infested with the fungi described. I suggest that you keep your cow out of low, swampy areas of ground and see if this trouble does not disap pear. Two drams of bi-sulphide of soda daily may be given to affected cows with advantage. Os course, all measures for the control or suppres sion of this trouble should be. car ried cut as diligently as possible. Bees As Producers of Sugar Sub stitutes R. G. 8., Cedartown. Ga., writes: Please tell me where I can secure Texas sweet clover as a honey producer for my bees. Would also like to secure some buckwheat seed. In the world shortage of sugar I do not think the bee industry should be neglected. You should not hahve any serious difficulty in securing sweet clover seed or buckwheat seed from any re liable seedsman. There may not be an over-abundant supply "of these seed available, but I am sure you can secure moderate amounts with out great difficulty. I would sug gest that you write to a number of seedsemen immediately. Sweet clov er, in our experience, is not as eas ily established on our Georgia soils as one migh suppose. It takes two years, as a rule, to develop a good stand. It has proven more satisfac tory in our experience when seeded in the late summer or early fall. We rather doubt the advisability of seed ing so late in the season. When planting sweet clover, use about sis- AUNT JULIA'S LETTER BOX Dear Children: My, but aren’t these warm days lovely after all the.cold, rainy weather? The thing that worries me is that the weeds grow faster than the plants in my garden. I want to ask you young farmers a question. I know I could go to some garden au thority and find out, but I’d rasher ask you. Why do you suppose my turnip tops have whitish, faded streaks in them? Is it a form of blight or is it my fault for too much watering or too little? I will greatly appreciate some advice. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA. Camden, S. C., No. 5. March 18, 1920.

Galinants Ferry, S. C. R, 2; Box 15. Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins:—Will you teen pounds of seed per acre. We suggest that you purchase scarified seed as they are much more likely to germinate quickly than, those which have not been treated in the manner indicated. , Buckwheat is a valuable crop to grow for bees. It may be planted early in the spring in Georgia or rela tively late in the summer. There should be no trouble about growing two Crops a year in this state. It is not a difficult crop to establish. It should be broadcasted or drilled into the land. A complete fertilizer used at . the rate of three hundred pounds per acre can be used to advantage. A good formula to use is 8 per cent of available phosphoric acid. 3 per cent of available nitrogen and 3 per cent of available potash. Buckwheat will also make a considerable yield of grain which constitutes a valuable food, while excellent hot cakes are made from the flour. It is a good soil improver and an excellent crop to use on land where one desires to smother out a heavy growth of weeds. DESTROYING WORMS ON TO BACCO R. H., Collin#, Ga.., writes: Please tell me what kind of poi son to use on tobacco to k ! ll bud worms, and also the proper method of applying it. The best method of destroying bud worms attacking tobacco is as fol lows: Prepare a mixture of one pound of arsenate of lead and seventy-five pounds of corn meal. Mix together thoroughly and apply as a dry pow der, which may be put on the buds with the fingers or sifted through a baaing powder can with nail holes in the bottom. Make two applica tions a week. When the plants be come larger, it is usually necessary to open the bud with one hand and drop a small portion of the mixture with the other. Paris green can also be used to control the bud worms, but as it is likely to burn the leaves, there is naturally a strong objection to its use. If arsenate of lead can not be secured, Paris green may be used. In that event, mix one pound of Paris green with 150 pounds of corn meal. This mixture should be applied at the rate of from twelve to fourteen pounds per acre. ABnormal Fermentations in Milk W. M. C., Rome, Ga., writes: I have a cow with her first calf three months old. She' gives two gallons of milk a day. The milk before it clabbers has good cream on it and when it clab bers the cream turns to whey, and it will not make butter. Any assistance you can render us will be appreciated. Troubles such as you describe are often met with. While this condi tion may develop at any season of the year, it is most commonly met with in the spring than at other seasons. This, no. doubt, is due to the change from cool to warm weather. The best method to fol low to overcome ■ this trouble is to first sterilize all of the utensils and dishes used in the holding and han dling of the milk. This should in clude the churn. To accomplish the end in view, everything should be boiled several hours. The utensils should then be spread out in the sun to dry and air. Put boiling water in the churn and let it stand until cool. Replace it with another lot. Continue this process for sev eral hours. If you have been us ing cloths in or about the utensils, dispose of them and instead pur chase a good, stiff bristled brush to use in scrubbing and cleansing the utensile. Sal soda may be used, in the water with advantage. It exerts a sweetening and wholesome influence and aids in the destruc tion of the bacteria which cause the trouble about which you write. Next, see that the udder of the cow. has been carefully washed and dried before milking. The milker should also be sure that his hands are clean. The udder can be soft ened by oiling it after each milking. Draw the milk from all parts of the udder very thoroughly. If there seems to be any congestion or in flammation, bathe the affected part with hot water. Rub dry, knead gently and then cover with a cam phorated-lard ointment to prevent chafing. The thorough cleansing of the udder by the exterior treatment recommended and the frequent strip ping-out clean of the milk are aids to overcoming the difficulty you are ex periencing. admit a lonely North Carolina girl into your happy band of boys and girls. I live on a farm and like it fine. Father takes The Journal and I always turn to the letter box first. Well, as this is my first at tempt to write I will describe myself.

Lumberton, N. C., Route 7, Box 35. Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Here comes one of your old cousins. I wonder how many of you cousins remember me. I wrote a letter to your Letter Box over two years ago, and received many interesting letters, more than I could answer, although I enjoyed them all. Will not describe my self this time as I did that before. My age is seventeen. Wish some of your cous ins were with me, for I am quite lonesome. And it is raining. Say, what has become of C. W., of M. G., and B. A., of L. G.? Bet you haven’t forgotten me, have you? Oh, cousins, isn’t Aunt Julia just the dear est “auntie?” She helps us so much, es pecially us motherless girls. My mother died when I was a little girl, eleven years old, so you see that left me to keep house for my father and brothers and sisters. But I enjoy the work very much, and I think we should all do everything we can to make our home more beautiful. Aunt Ju lia, what do you think about a boy or girl calling their parents, maw and paw? I think it is awful. Well, as Aunt Julia said not to make our letters too long, so guess I had better run along. Would like to hear from some of you “lonely sailors,” especially from the sailor who likes the southern girls so well. So let your letters fly. I am your cousin, EDITHE ROBERSON. Trion, Ga., Route 1.

Canning Powders Should Not Be Used in Canning In some communities there is a Widespread use of canning powder. Both boric and salicylic acid are bought from the druggists for this purpose. Large quantities of these acids are also sold at a high price under fanciful canning compound names. „ x x „ The United States department of agriculture warns against the use of any preserving powder or canning compound. Their use encourages careless and uncleanly work, and their excessive use may be attended with serious effects upon digestion and health. It is entirely practicable to “put up” fruits and vegetables so that they will keep indefinitely by processing the products with heat. There is no reason for taking the risk of using canning powders. The essentials in canning fruit and vegetables are these: Fresh products, pure water, care, cleanliness, good jars, “live,” stand ard rubber rings and sufficient heat to process the products thoroughly in the closed container. The Day (From Reedy’s Mirror) Does God ever see the clock? We hurry, hurry, hurry. As though life were not Measureless itself. Threescore and ten — So that older men Count their years Like plunder; So that younger men. who die, Having lived a whole lifetime, Feel cheated. II Day comes here, ‘ As though there were not time enough for another dawn. We seize it. It is broken up into hours As a city is broken up into streets. And we travel wearily to the end of them As between narrow house-walls. 111 It starts with an alarm clock. How can fchere be greatness in a day That is led in by a bellwether, A meek, God’s beast, to the charnel house? It is weighed on the clocks and ap portioned: Light, the tender white meat of the day, to the masters: The black meat, the gall and the entrails to us— So is the day slaughtered. IV So there shall be a time when the day shall be like a meadow, Open and free, with time like a boundless sky, And the pleasures growing like wild flowers; When life-spans shall be forgotten, Where death shall be a ford across a river, When I shall not be crowded in be tween hours. When my sitting down shall not have hanging over me the shadow of my getting up. For this it is worth laying waste cities, ’And forgetting a civilization. —ISIDOR SCHNEIDER. Why Worry About Sugar?

Have blue eyes, fair complexion, black hair and weigh 105 pounds. I have been married nearly two years and have one sweet little baby girl ten months old. My husband is not good to me only when he takes a no tion. I am as good to him as I can be except I fuss at him because he goes to town every day and stays all day, but don’t want me to go but once or twice a year. He said there wasn’t any sense in a woman going to town every week or two. All the other women go every Sat urday. It is just two miles to town from where we live, and he won’t take me anywhere on Sunday except to his people and I have to pec him and treat him as I would a baby to get to go anywhere else. We live on a farm and have a car, and don’t get to go anywhere hardly. 1 work and try to help him all I can. He says he loves me, but I don’t believe it. He don’t act like it sometimes. I think lots of times of leaving him, but have my baby to raise. I left him one time and it liked to have run him crazy, and I came back to him, but it didn’t do any good, so please give me good advice on what to do. Please answer this in the next paper, as I am troubled. Please print this. Y mrs truly, BRIGHT EYES. • What you need is a shaking up. The idea of letting your husband tell you when you can go to town, that is absurd. Where is your womanhood? Don’t you know he cannot have much respect for you if you let him browbeat you like that? When you want to go to town just say, Bill, Pete, George, or whatever his name is, 1 am go ing to town this morning and I will be back at such an hour. You have as much right as he has. This is not the Stone age, and your husband and every oth er husband will look up to his wife, and respect-her more if she would assert herself. I think married people can be happy if they will only work out their problems on a fifty-fifty basis. Don’t be a nagger, and make home unpleasant for your hus band, and for goodness sake don’t whine—anything a man hates is a whining woman. Be a sport and play the game to the finish, you can do it. I know what I am talking about. Do you want to know what a vam pire means this day and time? She isn’t the terrible creature who has been painted from time to time, a creature who preys on men, and sends them to perdi tion by her sorcery. No, she is the “woman who understands.” The woman who has sense enough to keep her mouth shut at the right time, who has moral courage and backbone, who isn’t afraid to do right, who by her womanly sweetness and good ' comradeship holds a man at her side, who wouldn’t dc> any thing to hurt another, a woman who inspires confidence and re spect. That is a real vampire. For she is the kind men will never forsake. Now, you just take a grip on yourself, see.what your faults are first, and try to correct them, and little by lit tle in a quiet manner assert yourself and, my dear, you will win out in the end- Here comes a boy for advice. I have been going with a girl for three years and I love her dearly. And she says she loves me with her whole heart, but she seems to take up lots of her time with other boys. We are engaged and the last time I was over to see her I went into the store where she works when I was leav ing to tell her good-bye and she was talking with another boy and she didn’t make any effort' at all to tell me good-bye or give me a chance to say anything to her. What do you think she meant by doing so? Do you think she loves me like she says? She likes for you to hug and kiss her, in fact, she will ask you to do such and she never gets tired of it. Do you think she means any harm? Please give me your advice on the question and nrint it in The .Journal. BROWN EYES. Three years is quite a long time to be engaged. Why don't you marry her? I do not believe in long engagements. This girl finds just being engaged to you very monotonaus and as she is young naturally she likes the so ciety of other men. I really think she is a little tired of you. The noveltv of being engaged has worn off. If you love her as you say you do. then you should make everv effort to marry he l " without delay. Or else be a ma” end release her from her prom ise. I do not think she sholuld ask you to kiss her, but if she places that much confidence in you then be a man and do not talk about her faults to any one else. You are rather an excep tional case, for most men the “kissing game” pretty well, and get really angry with a girl because she doesn’t, grant their request. I do not think the girl means any real harm. If you love her, respect her. believe In her, girls are not as bad as min are led to believe. T would have a plain understanding with her thouah and find w’here you stand end do not nut it off. "DANDERINE” Stops Hair Coming Out; Doubles Its Beauty.

Rosebud: When a boy has slighted you, and afterwards tries to be nice to you, accept him on the terms he offers, that is be equally as nice to him, but do not give him another opportunity to slight you in the future. Pay no at tention to his nice ways, except to always act the part of a lady and treat him politely. I do not think you are too young to have boy friends. If a boy has given you a wrist watch on a purely friendly basis he has no right to 'want it back. That is the reason I say that girls have no business accepting costly presents from boys, unless they are engaged to be married, and when a boy gives a girl a nice present he is a sorry sort of a fellow to want it back when he gets on the “outs” with her. So girls be careful and boys, do not be so foolish. I cannot tell you what to give a boy for a birthday present be cause I do not know his tastes. If he likes to read you might give him a book, or some nice hand-made linen handkerchiefs, one or more if you desire. Find out his hobby and taste for cer tain things and choose your present accordingly. You can wear high heel shoes if you wish, but If you have never had them on, take la. little advice from me and do not ever wear them. You will never suffer with aching feet or have foot trouble. The drawn look on a woman’s face is anything but attractive and pretty when her feet are full of bunions and corns. And high' heels will do this and morfe if you wear them. Young girls pompadoured, brushed back from the forehead and pompadoured across the crown of the head and seem to be wearing their hair puffed out on the sides. If a girl refuses a young man’s proposal he thinks she doesn’t know her mind, so he doesn’t mind, her “no.” There is no other race so easy for the bookmaker as the human race. “say "DIAMOND DYES” - Don't streak or ruin your material in a poor dye.
