SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
For Nov. 9, 1924 —Feeding the Five Thousand—John
BY DR. MARION McH. HULL
Golden Text: “I am the bread of,
life.”—John (5:35.
The feeding of the five thousand, ,
as this miracle is called, marks the
midpoint in the public ministry of
Jesus. Up to this time His popu
larity was ever increasing; from this
time it began to wave until at the
end everyone of His disciples even
had forsaken Him so that He went
to the cross alone. The reason for
its place was the test He put the
people to after it was over, so that
'from that time forth many drew
away from Him. The circumstances
were as follows:
It was just before the passover.
Vast crowds of people were always
on the move at that time, on the
way to Jerusalem to celebrate tne
feast. The disciples had just return
ed from their tour upon which He
had sent them, and had had such
great success that news of it reached
Herod in the palace. So impressed
was he with what was being accom
plished that he thought John the
♦ Baptist, whom he had beheaded, had
been restored to life. It was his 1
guilty conscience accusing him, of '
course, but it at least gives some '
hint of the marvelous work that had I
been done; and also suggests the dan- I
gerous position of Jesus and. His
friends. They were in Herod's ter- |
ritory and at his mercy. So Jesus
Said to His disciples: "Come ye your
selves apaqt and rest awhile.” and
leading them, He and they took ship
and crossed over to the other side —•
out of Herod's jurisdiction, and \o
the mountain where they were evi
-1 dently accustomed to retreat.
But they could not get away from
the crowds. The success of their
mission had greatly increased the
popularity of Jesus; and this, added i
to the fact that such large numbers |
were on the road now traveling to )
Jerusalem, accounts for that num-|
ber that followed Him around the |
\ head, of the lake and made the rest
and retreat so much needed an im
possibility. Instead of sending the
multitudes away, He had compassion
on them because they were as sheep
without a shepherd and so He minis
tered unto them, teaching and heal
ing, until the day was far spent.
Such a crowd would be poorly pro
vided with food, and in that region
northwest of the Sea of Galilee there
were no towns large enough to sup
ply such an unusual demand. The
disciples had evidently discussed the
matter -among themselves, and had
decided to ask Him to send the mul
♦ titude. away so that they could get
food—ho doubt having a selfish mo
tive back of it, for they really need
ed the rest that they had come to
this place to get; they had not had
leisure so much as to eat.
Jesus knew their thoughts; He also
knew what He was going to do. But
to test Philip He spoke the question
which was in their minus—particu
larly Philip's—“ Whence shall we buy
bread that these may eat?’’ For He
had already told them, in response
to their suggestion that they be sent
away, that they should give them to
eat.
♦ Philip was one of those keen busi
ness men who hadn’t a great amount
of faith. He had fine qualities; but
he had to get rid of some of those
fine qualities. He made a quick cal
culation, and replied: Thirty-five
dollars worth of bread wouldn't give
this crowd a taste; and there are two
other difficulties—first, theVe is not
that much bread near here: and sec
ond, we haven’t the thirty-five dol
lars if there were' O Philip, Philip!
a genius when it comes to business;
’’ but blind, not to take into account i
your greatest asset, Jesus!
Philip seems to have had a great I
difficulty in getting over thix fine
quality of his; for evert the night be-,
•ore Jesus was betrayed he had toj
say to Hint: "Have I been so long!
time with you, and yet thou hast not
known me, Philip?” He might have
4 said: No, Master, I haven't an idea
where to get enough to feed this
crowd, but I haven't an idea, where
to get enough to feed this crowd, but.
I am sure that you can do what is
necessary.
Andrew had been scouting around.
He was always on the job. But all
that he had been able to find was a
lad ■with a lunch. He had five
Uneeda biscuits and a. couple of sar
dines—hardly enough for one hungry
boy. Andrew told Jesus of his find; I
then he too seemed to lose faith.
“But. what are these among so
many?” he added.
Now Jesus didn't need this much
t even; He is the Creator of the uni
verse. But He likes for us to sub
mit all that we have to Him—our lit
tle all—that He may make it all suf
ficient. So He took the lad's lunch
and hade the. disciples have the mul
titude sit down on the green grass
in companies of fifty and multiples.
Then He lifted up His eyes to heav
en, and gave thanks. The very way
in which He gave thanks must have
engendered more faith in the hearts
of the disciples, for when He brake
and gave to them to give to the
t multitude they didn't, hesitate, but
started out in the work of distribu
. tion.with all the confidence of their
having enough for all. This was test
of their faith, for otherwise they
might easil.v have felt that they were
being made fools of.
But as they distributed there was
more to distribute. Hveryhody had
as much as they could eat: and there
were five thousand men beside the
women and children, a total of not

less than 15,000 people! And still
there was some left, some untouched
fragments—not scraps, not left-overs
that had been partly used, but pieces
that hadn't been touched at all be
cause it was not needed. At Jesus
command these were gathered up
just fragments of bread, not of fish
—and it was found to be twelve bas
ketfull: one for each of the disciples
for the next meal!
Any way to explain this miracle?
No; except that the Creator exer
cised His creative power. We can
understand how one grain of wheat
can multiply until it can feed 15,000
people; but that has life and takes
time. The Creator is responsible for
that, and could speed up the process
just as easily as a camera man can
speed up a moving picture. But the
wheat was crushed and cooked here.
It was a definite creative act. And
the significance of this miracle as
a sign of the deity and sonship of
Jesus the Christ is seen when we
realize that it is the only miracle
recorded by all four evangelists.
The effect of it on the people was
notable. They said, “This is of a
truth that prophet that should come
into the world.” For years—in fact
ever since Moses’ time —they had
been looking for a prophet like unto
Moses; a deliverer. They were now
under the bondage of Rome, and
were particularly anxious to have a
deliverer; and this manifestation of
power convinced them that He was
the one for whom they had been
looking and longing. He could pro
vide for them and with such power
there would be no doubt of His
ability to conquer their enemies and
deliver them from their despised
bondage. So they came and tried
to take Him by force and make Him
their King.
Ah, He had come to be their King
and to deliver them; but not in that
way. The way to the crown was
via the cross! So He got away from
them, sent His disciples back across
the lake in ships, while He w’ent
up into the mountain alone—that He
might pray and Himself be delivered
from the temptation presented Him
of taking a short cut to the crown.
He wanted to be King, but He want
ed subjects who would appreciate the
nature of His Kingdom and of His
Kingship.
Next day He explained to the mul
titudes the meaning of the miracle.
He had presented Himself to them
as the solution of their every need
their all-sufficiency. He was the
Bread of God who had come down
from heaven, typified by the manna
in the wilderness. Eating of Him
they should never hunger and nev
er thirst.
This was the hard saying over
which they stumbled. They could
not understand it, and they couldn’t
get away from the false idea they
had that He was Joseph's son, and
therefore that He could not have
come down from heaven. There
fore many began to fall away from
Him from that hour. You see it was
the Virgin Birth over which they
were stumbling then, as many are
doing today. It was their total
lack of spiritual perception because
of their preoccupied material ideas,
which made them unable to believe
on Him and to appropriate Him as
God's all-sufficient provision, the
Bread of God which came down from
heaven that giveth life to the world.
And yet how easy it is. You speak
of digesting facts, taking time to di
gest the contents of a book. In the
way, to eat the flesh of the Son of
man and to drink His blood is noth
ing more than to appropriate for
yourself the benefits of His broken
body and shed blood. If any man
eat of this bread, he shall live for
ever; the bread that he gave is His
flesh, which He gave for the life
of the world.
But there was another very inter
ested party in this miracle. On the
edge of the crowd he stood with eyes
as big as saucers as he saw the few
barley cakes his mother had fixed for
his lunch and the two dried fish from
the lake getting more and more ns
they were distributed to the thou
sands. He was one of the four big
lactors in thia miracle. Andrew who
had discovered him was one; the dis
ciples who acted as waiters was an
other; and Jesus was the Great
Factor.
We are interested in this chap now
though because he is such an inter
ested spectator. He probably would
have been hungry even after eating
all five crackers and both fish if he,
had kept the lunch for himself. It
would have been barely enough for a
hungry growing boy. But now he
had so much to eat he had to stop;
he couldn't swallow another mouth
ful. Why? Ah! the answer is one
you must learn now; if you don't, go
back over it often enough until you
do. It was just this: He had given
his all to Jesus; and Jesus had made
it more than enough for him.
What a wonderful Christ is He!
Never too tired to talk, about .he
things of the Kingdom or to heal
those in need. Never insensitive to
the little hings of life. Never at a
loss to know what to do. Never
short of power to do all that is
Never doing what others
can do. Never turned from the way
of Bis Father's mill even though
it offers the easier course. Never
taking anything for use—even
though it be but a lad's lunch—with
out paying it. back with enormous in
terest.
\\ hat a wonderful Christ! Won't
you trust your all to Him; He will
be more than all to you.

Pear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Time
brings about many changes, but 1 am al- i
most the same except in age, and that does j
not affect me much, for I am still young
and Jong for new friends, so that is my
reason for asking admittance again. My
two sisters Jiave married and left home,
and I get lonesome sometimes, with papa,
myself and two small brothers on a 250-
ac’re farm. We are having a lot of rainy
weather of late. Cotton is sprouting in i
the field, and lots of the farmers around !
here have got the “blues.” Crops are very |
good considering the unfavorable weather '
we have had this year. I wonder how j
many of yon cousins belong to the B. Y.
P. IT.? I do, and think it is a fine or
ganization for training young church mem
bers. especially if we are interested in it
ns we should be. I think young folks
could get. lots of pleasure out of it as well
as good training. My other two sisters and
myself formerly were all group captains,
so you see why we miss each other so
much. For pets, 1 have a cat and a calf.
We old maids ought not to bestow our love
on cats, dogs and other frivolous things
when there are so many sweet little or- ;
plraned children that need our love, care
and attention, but we who have never
known a mother's love feel the need of
one. Miss Pauline Craven, of Leo, Ga.,
why didn't you answer my letter? I re

Dear Folks: Tiring of being on the out- |
side of your interesting circle I seek . I
mittance and trust you will be kind. Being ■
a shut-in and confirmed invalid, I do not •
often make such calls.
I d like to say a few words on individ
uality, a subject not much discussed,
though one that should be of interest to
every one. Dare to lie yourself, have your
own thoughts and act the way you think
vou ought. Too often do we see those who
haven't the backbone to assert their origi
nality but think, talk, dress and live a
certain way because “so and so ’ did or
said to and because of what others will
think.
1 believe the young folks have been dis
cussed enough. Let's just remember that
“there's bad in the best of us, and good
in tlie worst of us,” and usually people
are not so had once we understand them.
For those who desire more education I
would say “to never give up.” One can
improve one's self without attending school
or taking any “regular courses” just pro
cure good books, take time in reading them
and observe the author's choice of English;
words you're not sure of look up and use
in sentences for yourself. Books and travel
enriches one's mind. Two interesting ones
are Mark Twain's fifth and sixth volume
of “Following the Equator. ” Then there's
the helpful magazine, Travel, National
Geographic, American, etc. Don’t under
estimate those and never negfeet an op
portunity of conversing with well edu
cated people.
Speaking from most eleven years’ ex
perience. 1 say that we shut-ins appreciate
and need cheer in the form of reading mat
ter. etc., to best understand. Put your
self In our place for a short time in your
imagination, indoors permanently, day in
and day out.
Must close after adding a few lines rs
my favorite poem. Will enjoy hearing frem
you folks.
There is lots of sorrow 'round you.
Lots of, lonesomeness and tears.
Lots of heartaches and of worry.
Through the shadow of the year.
But the world needs more than triumphs,
More than all the swords we re drawn,
It is hungering for the fellow
W ho keeps cheering some one on.

from Mississippi, so I decided i would try
my luck. Come on, hoys, with your let
ters, the girls are far ahead of us. Don't
you think The Journal is a grand paper?
I enjoy reading the letters, especially those
describing their ideals. Some of them are
real interesting, while others cause me to
have a hearty laugh. I see most of you
take for your subject hobbed hair, rouge
and powder. As for me, 1 think it all
right if the girls want io use it. Some of
them use so much until they look fright
ful. but they can suit, themselves about
that. 1 don't think we boys have any room
to criticize the girls, for we all have bad
habits and the girls are not always knock
ing on ns. Remember these same girls
that have bobbed hair now once had long
hair, apd I'm sure bobbing the hair didn't
change the girl any. There lire other im
portant tilings we should study about a
person besides their looks. None of us are
perfect, so we shouldn't speak of others
faults, for we have just as many as they.
There are some who are always finding
fault witii others and never think of their
own. Well, I had better stop before I
break the rules. My age is between twenty

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME
When Sweethearts of Eighteen Are
Separated, Does Their Bove
(Itange?—When a Wife Dis
covers Her Husband Un
faithful, Should She Break
Up Their Home? How
To Treat Man Who
Threatens Suicide
DE2AR MISS DIX—I am a girl
eighteen years old and am en
gaged to a boy who is the same
age. I am about to start away ft om
the place in whch I live to train for
a nurse. My sweetheart has prom
ised that he will not. go with any
other girl while lam gone. Do you
think our being
separated will
cause him to for
get me m o r e
than if I were to
■ stay near him?
Does love wear
oft' when a boy
is so you ng?
What age would
you advise us to
get married? If
he stays true un
i til 1 finish my
■ nursing course.
1 would it indicate
I that he woulrt
1 make a. good, re-
/ '‘'A'
-vinHw .....
liable husband, whom I could always
depend on loving and caring for me.’
IN DOUBT.
Answer:
My dear girl, if you are going
away to take a course in nursing,
why don't you wait until you get
through before you decide the all im
portant question of a husband? Sure
ly, at 18, there is no great hurry in
making a final decision.
You are worrying whether this
boy will be true to you, and wheth
er he will want you when you come
back. How about yourself? You
are going away for several years to
live iik a city among strangers, to
acquire city ways, and cit!y points of
view, and get city clothes. You will
study and improve your mind. You
will be thrown with many highly ac
complished and educated men of the
world. You will meet many fasci
nating doctors and internes.
By the time you have finished your
training course you will be an en
tirely different girl from the one you
are now, and there are a hundred
chances to one that you will have
outgrown your boy sweetheart and
won’t want him at any price. Ser
why don’t you be a senstible girl
and act fairly toward him and your
self and call your engagement oft"
Then when you come back, if you
still love each other, you can renew
ir.
As to your questions, I think you
are asking a good deal of an 18-year
o d boy to live the life of a hermit
while you are gone, and he would
be more than human if he did. He
will want to go around and have a
good time with other young people
of his own age.
Certainly, absence is very apt to
weaken iove, especially in the
young, and your sweetheart would,
be much more liable to be faithful
if you were on the ground to look
after your fences.
As to what age you should marry,
that depends on many things besides
the calendar. It largely dtpends on
the young man making enough
money to support a family In com
fort. No man has a right to marry
until he can do that, no matter what
age he has attained. And it is al
ways a mistake, for very young
people to marry because they almost
always change and passionately re
gret marrying the one they did.
Certainly I think that if a boy of
(bobbed, of course), blue eves find fair
complexion; weigh 108 pounds. My birth
day is July 25. Have I a twin? It so,
please write me a letter. My age is be
tween 18 and 22. The one that guesses it I
will write to them. All of you cousins
please write to a lonely girl. With love.

Dearest Aunt Julia: Knock! Knock! Here
comes a North Carolina girl to join your

der if you will let me in. As this is my
first letter to The Journal I'll promise not
to stay long. What do you cousins do
for pastime? I help mother do the house
work and lots of other things. I am a
member of the (Live Oak) Methodist
church. Rev. G. 11. Riggs is my pastor.
I am five feet and three inches tall, have
fair complexion, blue eyes and black hair
(bobbed), weigh 108. My birthday is Oc

you would please write to nie. I would
like to correspond with any of you cousins
who care to write, and I’ll assure you an
answer. I will close with love and best
wishes.

Dear Aunt. Julia and Cousins; Will you be
so kind as to let a Georgia girl into your
happy band of boys and girls? I have been
a reader of the I-etter Box for name time.
My brother takes The Journal, and I surely
enjoy reading the cousins' letters. This is
mv first attempt to write to the -Letter
Box, so I will not tarry long. I, like most
of the cousins, atn a farmer's daughter. I
like farm life fine. Cousins, don’t you think
Aunt Julia the sweetest aunt in the world
to give the boys and girls of different states
this opportunity of knowing each other
through correspondence? What do most of
the cousins do for pastime? I do a little of
every tiling. Wake up. boys; the girls are
going to get ahead of you all. Well, I
guess you all are wondering who I am, so
here 1 go: I have, a few freckles, dark com
plexion, dark hair, gray eyes; my age is
between fourteen and seventeen. I would
like to correspond with some good friend, so
let your letters come.
(MISS) CATHERINE MURRAY.
Pearson. Ga., Route 2, Box 11.
Dear Aunt Julia: Here I come again, ask
ing you to give enough s|>a< e for a few lines.
1 will promise not to take up very much
space. I just thought I would like to come
in for a few moments’ ehat with you all. I
notice most of tlie cousins take a subject.
If I were going to take up a subject 1 be
lieve it would be "Friendship,'’ because that
is one of the greatest things we have here—
true friendship. What is greater than a
good, true friend, one that really and truly
is a friend? If we have the misfortune to
lose our friends we are in bad shape. If
we have no money and plenty of friends, we
are all right; but if we have plenty 'f
money and no friends. our money isn't
worth much to us. Os course we have
plenty of friends as long a« our money lasts,
but when our money gives out our friends
do also, and those friends aren't worth any
thing to us after all if they are our friends
only when we don't need them. "A friend
in need is a friend indeed." Well, as I am
nearly to ike limit of Aunt Julia's 200-word
per ptter. 1 will tell y<»i how 1 look and
go: I am twenty or tweiity-eight years old.
Guess which? Blue eyes, light complexion,
light brown, ■urly hair; weight ICO pounds.
I will answer all letters received, with pic
tures in 'losed. Best wishes to Aunt Julia
and cousins.

Dear Miss Dix —I have been mar
ried nine years, and have two dar
: ling little children. My husband has
' always been good to me, but I have
j just found out that he has been
le . dng ihe double life ever since we
have been married. He confessed to
me when one of his women friends
was going to squeal on him. He had
no cause to treat me so, as J have
done everything in the world to
' please him and he admits that 1
have been a model wife.
I guess I can go on living with
i him, but I can never love him as I
' did before. What shall 1 do?
A HEART-BROKEN WIFE.
i Answer: No one can decide such
a vital question as that for you,
poor, betrayed, heart-broken wife,
; but there are many sides to the sit
nation that you should consider.
; The first, of course, is your chil
dren. Have you an independent for-1
i tune of your own, enough money toj
' support them and educate them as ■
: their father will do if you stay with I
j him? Or have you some trade or!
i L.'ofession by which you can earn j
I a good livelihood for youngelf and'
I them?
If not, make the best of your bad
: bargain for your children’s sake and
; keep your home together.
i Pitt no faith in trying to make
! your husband support you and the
children if you are divorced from
him. Alimony is virtually uncollecti
ble unless a man has real estate.
And, anyway, by hook or crook, a
man gets out of paying it by spend
ing so much money on his vices that
he has none left for his children.
Also, as long as you keep your
home together you have a living, a
settled place in society, and you are
that much better off than you would
be if you were thrown out on your
own resources and had to earn your
bread and butter in an office or be
hind a counter.
—
Os course, you can never love and
trust your husband again as you
1 have done. Possibly he is one of
: the men who do not have it in them
j to be faithful to one woman,. But
| even so, can you not put love out of
! your life and he friends with him,
and put matrimony on a business
i basis, and so find yourself better off
I than you would be if you were di
i voiced?
I am strongly of the opinion that,
jas long as a man is kind to his
: wife and pleasant to live with, she
i is wise not to break up her home
! because he is unfaithful to her. It.
I even seems to me that there are
■ worse faults that a husband can
' have than philandering, ■fchich is,
! after all, a matter of the flesh. He
can be spiritually untrue to her. He
can be cruel and torment her very
soul out of her, and these are the
unforgivable sins.
Dear .Dorothy Dix—l am twenty
three years- old and have been keep
j ing steady company with a. young
I man. I love him very much, but at
j the least disagreement we have he
I threatens to take his life if I don’t
I give in. This worries me very much.
| What would you advise?
MABEB.
Answer: He Is a coward, Mabel.
Call his bluff. 1 knew a woman who
had that sort of a husband. For
years he tyrannized over her by
keeping her terrorized. Finally, when
he threatened for the millionth time
to commit suicide, she said to him:
“Go to it. You will find your
razor in the top bureau drawer. A
loaded revolver is on the chiffonier
and the rough on rats is on the
kitchen shelf. Help yourself.” And
that was all of that.

FARM EDUCATION
BY DR. ANDREW M. SOULE
G. E. 8., Ivey Ga., writes: |
I run a mill and intend this fall
to buy up a lot of corn; enough
to operate the mill on for a year |
or until corn comes again. I
wish to know what is tlie best
remedy to use to keep weevils
out of my corn, or kill them in
the corn so 1 will not have them j
in the corn next spring. Please
tell me also how to apply it.
Carbon bisulphide is the material ,
to use for the purpose of keeping j
your stored grain free from weevils. I
This may be applied in a variety of !
ways. The first thing, however, is i
to store the grain in a reasonably
tight bin or container. This bin
should be carefully cleaned out be
fore the grain is put therein and
should be made as nearly rat, or
mouse proof as possible. The amount
of carbon bisulphide to use depends
on the quantity of stored grain and
the tightness of the house in which
it is placed. Where a considerable
depth of grain is found, it is often
desirable to put pieces of gas pipe
down through it. The lower end
of the pipe should he plugged, and
small perforations made near the
bottom. Carbon bisulphide gas is
heavier than air. You may pur
chase it in a liquid form and place
in containers, or pipes as 'Suggested.
The containers should be distrib
uted over the bin. The most effec
tive results will be obtained where
the temperature is about 60 Faren
heit. You should use five pounds
of carbon bisulphide to each one
thousand cubic feet of space occu
pied bj r the stored grain. The gas
formed from the evaporation of car
bon bisulphide is explosive. Hence,
do not expose a flame or ?. spark
in its vicinity.
Several treatments during the
year may be necessary. Certainly,
two will be needed. The first, to
destroy the living weevils in the
grain at the time the treatment is j
made, and second, those that will
be hatched out in the course of a
few days and re-infest the grain.
Carbon bisulphide dbes not burn the
clothing nor injure the hands. Han
dle it in the daytime, and keep lights
away from it. If you have any
quantity on hand, store it in an
outhouse. Grain treated with car
bon bisulphide will not be injured
for milling purposes if it is exposed
to the air a 1 few hours after the
treatment is completed. The treat
ment should continue for a period
of eighteen to twenty-four hours.
Cover the top of the granary with
a tarpaulin. We have kept grain
free from insect pests by this
method in a most satisfactory man
ner. It is the best plan of pro
cedure for accomplishing the end
which you have in view with which
we are acquainted.
Pertinent Facts About the Hairy
Yetch
F. H. T., DaGrange, Ga.,
writes: I am very much interest
ed in the planting and culture of
vetch, and I will appreciate any
information you can give me on
this subject.
There are several kinds of vetch
which may he cultivated in Georgia.
Onlj' two, however, have been grown
to any appreciable extent in this
state. The first of these is known
as hairy vetch. It is adapted for
growth all over the state due to its
hardiness. The Oregon vetch, some
times called the Augusta vetch, is
adapted for growth in the southern
part of Georgia and will do well in
north Georgia in a very mild winter.
We would not recommend it, how
ever, for cultivation in your sec
tion of the state. Hairy may
be planted any time from now on,
the sooner the better.
This crop should be seeded on
land which has been prepared 1 ’ with
some care. Begin bj’ providing a
good, friable seedbed. To attain this
end. the land should, as a rule, he
plowed, rolled and harrowed. We
advise the use of 300 pounds of
acid phosphate end 100 pounds of
kainit or manure salts as supple
mental fertilizers. We have seldom
found it necessary to inoculate this
crop, though this may not be a bad
thing to do in a section where vetch
has never been grown before. We
have never made it a practice to

use any nitrogen in association with
fertilizer applied to vetch. You may
broadcast the seed or you may sow
it in drills. We prefer the latter
method. If sown in eighteen to
twenty-four inch rows, twenty Co
thirty pounds of seed will be suf
ficient to plant an acre. In a favor
able season, a very vigorous stand
should result from this method of
planting. Vetch may be grazed for
a considerable part of the year. If
left alone for a little while, it will
produce a good deal of seed, there
by re-establishing itself on the land
for the next year. It may be cut for
hay, of which it makes a very good
quality. The yield will vary from
one up to two tons per acre. The
crop may be cut for grain. In that
event, ten bushels or more of seed
may be harvested per acre. As
vetch seed is high and in good de
mand. there is some considerable
opportunity’ in Georgia, for making
this stale a. ((enter, therefore, of
seed production. Where vetch is
grown for hay, we would always be
disposed to sow it with three pecks
to one bushel of oats, beardless
wheat or rye. We consider that oats
and vetch make the best quality of
hay.
