According to reports issued from
some of staticians it appears that
the national congress and state
legislatures have enacted 63,000
laws in the last five years. This is
some 60,000 more than the British
parliament have enacted during the
same length of time. Well, it is
just in the American people to
“do” things, and it probably takes
the unlimited amount of brains in
congress strung to its highest, pitch
to keep pace with the evil workers
of the land.

Wheat Growing In Ga.
Tests Made With Different Varieties
And Their Results.
ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga.
State College Of Agriculture.
Realizing the importance of encour¬
aging the cultivation of winter wheat,
the College of Agriculture has been
conducting for several years past va¬
riety tests at Athens, Ashburn and
Quitman. It is certain that much re¬
mains to be ascertained with refer¬
ence to the best method of cultivation
and the proper rotation of crops. Of
course, the fertilizer side of the prob¬
lem also needs to be carefully inves¬
tigated. There is only one serious
drawback to the cultivation of wheat
in the Southeastern states, and that Is
that, while there S' an abundant' raffe
fall, it Is often not well distributed,
hence the crop sometimes suffers from
drought when approaching maturity.
This difficulty can be overcome to a
considerable degree by the develop¬
ment, through selection, of early ma¬
turing strains and the management of
the land in such a manner as to in¬
crease its supply of vegetable matter,
and thus enable it to and
a greater amount ef water.
Rust is among the most
of the diseases to which this cereal
is subject. The success which has
been attained in developing rust proof
oats, however, leads to the belief that
through persistent efforts strains of
wheat as strongly resistant can also
he obtained.
Essentially the same method of man¬
agement were used at all of the places
indicated, the soil being broken to a
good depth and a fine seed bed pre¬
pared. At all places the intention is
to practice a three-years’ rotation in
which cotton, corn and small grain
is followed by cow peas. By this plan
small grain occupies the land only
once in three years, and as it follows
com the ground is generally in such
condition that a good seed bed can
be prepared. In this rotation the plan
is to turn under the cow peas as green
manure, and as far as possible, a cov¬
er crop of rye or hairy vetch is usually
seeded in the cotton as well as a soil
builder.
It is the plan to use 400 pounds of
acid phosphate and 100 pounds of mu¬
riate of potash per acre. In the spring
of the year 100 pounds of sulphate of
ammonia has been applied per acre.
The yield of some of the more im¬
portant varieties tested in Athens is , D
recorded ..........—...... below. It appears that as a
result of two years’ work Deitz Amber
made an average yield of 28.7 bushels
per acre; Georgia Red, 28.3 bushels;
Fulcaster 27.4 bushels; Australian
Red, 27.1 bushels; Red May, 26.7
bushels; Blue Stem, 26.6 bushels ;
Mammoth Red, 26.6 bushels; Fultz,
25.9 bushels; Klondike, 25.7 bushels;
Fishhead, 25.4 bushels, and Bearded
Purple Straw, 24.3 bushels. These
must be regarded as good yields and
wherever they can be approximated
the cultivation of wheat as a winter
cover crop and the production of
grain for bread can be practiced to
advantage.

The yields obtained from some ot
the leading varieties at Ashburn are(
as follows: Blue Stem, 19.6 bushels;:
Georgia Red, 19.6 bushels; Red May,'
18.3 bushels; Australian Red, 15.8
bushels; Deitz Amber, 14.9 bushels;
Fultz, 13.7 bushels; Fishhead, 13.3
bushels; Klondike, 12.1 bushels; Mam¬
moth Red, 11.7 bushels; Fulcaster, 111
bushels. These yields are not nearly
so good as those obtained on the Cecil
clay typical of the Piedmont area,
and yet a number of these varieties
could be grown to advantage on the
Tifton sandy loam under seasonal and
soil conditions similar to those ob¬
taining at Ashburn with good advan¬
tage. 1
The yields obtained at Quitman,
where this work has only been car¬
ried on one year, were not satisfac¬
tory, but It would not be fair to draw
any, tone a^ast
only one year. Blue Stem made the
highest yield of any varietey, namely
6.7 bushels. Cultivating wheat on this
basis would, of course, not be profits
able. Possibly when these soils are
Improved and a better season experi¬
enced, the yields will be considerably
increased. It is important to remem-i
her that through selection and breeds
ing it will more than likely be possi
ble to develop strains much better
adapted for cultivation in the south¬
ern part of the territory than now. j
Why Not Build
Farm Water Worts
L. C. HART, Prof. Agr. Engineering,
Ga. State College Of Agrl.
Why not figure some on helping tnat
good wife of yours who has stood by
you so well and done a great deal of
home drudgery; for Instance, why not
install some form of water works?.
If you go off and buy all sorts of|
equipment for saving labor on thq
farm cr for the convenience of taking
care of the cows, why let the wlfa(
continue to carry water from a wel
that is located nearer to the cow
than to the kitchen?
Water works systems for far
home can be installed for a cost
Ihe way from $20 to $200. Wate
works mean not only saving of labo
for the farm wife, but affords mean
for better sanitation, for watering gardens]
flower beds and kitchen
washing the buggy or automobile acc|
many other such uses.
The College of Agriculture through
its Department of Agricultural En
gineering will furnish plans and work
out a water works proposition for farm
homes, upon application as soon as
such requests can be disposed of.
