for them by the College and many of
the courses offered to men will be
open to women also. For further In¬
formation please write for special
pamphlet to Andrew M. Soule, Presi¬
dent, Athens, Ga.
IN ORCHARD PLOWING
CARE MEANS
Past Practice Will Determine Depth
Of Plowing.
Every fruit grower who plows his
orchard at all should make an effort
to get this done by the first of March.
Orchards that are on steep hillsides,
and especially those that are not ter¬
raced, should not be plowed. Where
an orchard has been plowed every
year from six to ten Inches deep,
plowing should be to that depth. 11
the orchard has not been plowed for
several years, it Is not advisable to
turn over more than four or five inches
of soil at the first plowing. Be care¬
ful in pitt ing an orchard not to put
the trees on a ridge or, on the other
hand, not to form a ridge In the cen¬
ters between the trees. The dirt
should be turned one way one year
and the other way the next Where
the land Is level enough to permit It,
the orchard should be plowed In one
direction one season and in another
direction, or cross plowed, the next
season.
When plowing, or doing any other
work in an orchard for that mattfcr,
ail care should be taken to prevent
Injuring the trees by rubbing up
against them with the trace chains or
breaking the limbs with the extensions
of hames and other parts ef the har
ness or machinery. Where plowing is
finished in February, the early work
In the orchard is not so much rushed.
Trees require an enormous amount
of moisture, and this moisture cannot
be held and conserved, unless the land
is first pulverized by plowing and
then put In a good mulch
to hold the water.—Prof. T. H. McHat
ton, State College of Agriculture.

WIN TIIIS FLAG
HOT CONTEST WAGED
FOR HONOR FLAG
Every City And County Which Buys
Quota Of Liberty Bonds Will -Be
Given An Attractive Banner
HOT CONTEST.
Atlanta.—States, counties and towns
which subscribe their quota of the
Third Liberty Loan, will be entitled
to an honor flag, just as families
who give their sons to the country
display a service flag. To impress the
fact that a contribution of money
toward the winning of the war is
quite as essential as the contribution
of men, the officials of the treasury
department have put this idea into
effect.
This is a new idea incorporated iu
the Liberty Loan honor campaign.
There is to be great rivalry all over
the United States for the honor of
winning one of these flags. Every in¬
dividual subserf Per will have a win
dow card, on which his name is to
be Inscribed for display from the win¬
dows of his residence or place of
business.
The new flag has the red border
and the white field of the Red Cross
membership flag. Rut instead of the
crosses on the field the Liberfv Loan
flag will have three vertical blue
stripes to indicate the number of the
loan. Honor flags furnished to citie
and towns are to be 36x54 inches and
are to be made of the best material
as furnished to the navy.
Rivalry is Growing.
A blue star will be inserted on the
white field in addition to the striptw
if the community doubles its quota.
In event that it Is tripled or quad¬
rupled. two or three stars will then
bp added
Each state which reaches Its allot¬
ment will receive a large flae. In ad
dition to the stripes, this state flag
will also bear on the white field the
names Of the towns in the state that
have completed the required quota.
As rapidly as thd various towns re¬
port, their names will be added.
Over the treasury department
building In Washington will float the
largest flag of the entire series. This
flag will bear the names of the differ¬
ent states which will reach their quo¬
ta, There will he the liveliest rivalry
between every state in the Union to
secure the honor of having its name
go on this national flag, just as com¬
petition between cities and towns
will be of the most exciting kind.
The idea that the name of each
community is to go down on the sfatp
honor flag just as soon as its limit
Is reached is already being widely dis-'
cussed. Committees in towns where
much rivalry has already existed with
neighboring towns are already organ¬
izing for a whirlwind campaign in
order to beat their rivals to the state
honor list. Ambitious towns that are
anxious for municipal publicity are
catching at the idea with a view of
having their success in the campaign
flashed throughout the state and Fed
eral Reserve District,
The first town In the United States
above two thousand in population
which reports to the secretary of the
treasury the full subscription of its
quota will be signally honored. Its
name and achievement will be flash¬
ed over the entire country by all press
associations, giving the fact of its
success. Secretary McAdoo may visit
the town in person, and present the
honor flag with hi* own hands to the
committee which has been able to
lead the nation in the campaign.
With the secretary's party will go
motion picture camera men from the
Hearst-Pathe News Pictorial, who will
make pictures of the presentation
ceremonies and other interesting
views of the town: and these pic¬
tures will be displayed from one end
of the country to the other.
* Honor Rolls Given Out.
Every community will he furnished
with an honor roll to aid the com¬
mittee in securing subscriptions. This
honor roll, a large sheet 25x33 inches,
will bear at the top a reproduction of
the honor flag, with the words: “Help
our town win the right to fly this
flag.” Below will be left space for
the signatures of all those who buy
bonds. This honor roll will be simi¬
lar to that on the state and national
service flags.
Just as soon as the full quota is
subscribed, and the right to fly the
flag has been won, special exercise?
will be prepared in each community
to mark the flag raising. The gov¬
ernors of the states in the Sixth dis¬
trict have learned of the plans with
Interest, and it is probable that they
will be present at the flag raising in
their different states.
Practically every committee
throughout the district is hard at work
with their organizations, making spe¬
cial efforts to land a flag as short¬
ly after the opening of the campaign
as possible. The many rivalries
which will arise between the towns
In this part of the country will b*
