FARMERS ~ PRACTIGAL, PLAIN AND TO THE POINT By Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture. Advice is cheap, easy to give and of ten worthless, because it has never been tried out. Real information gained through painstaking experi ments with the elements of doubt, all eliminated, is only worth while. A great mauy people believe they know, but they have not the data to prove it. The farmer while in a position to try out and test, is, ax a rule, the per son who has least reliable information to give. He has not taken pains to prove his results. He has not eliminat ed doubts and varying factors that may have influenced his production. The only agencies, as a rule, that take the pains to prove, or whe are paid to take the time to prove and who can afford to discover mistakes, are the Colleges of Agricuiture and Experi ment Stations. lor this reason these institutions are only to be relied upon for safe guidance into new field of endeavor and practices in agriculture. The Georgia State College of Agri culture is issuing bulletins from time to time, designed to meet the needs CULTIVATING THE ACRE OF CORN The weeder and the spring-tooth cul tivator should be relied upon for cul tivation of corn. A general rule for cultivation is, first to till the corn shallow, that is, to a depth of 1 1-2 to 2 1-2 inches, unless there are spe cial reasons for deeper tillage. Some times comparatively deep till age may be justifiable while the corn is less than one foot high, especially on land that contains much clay and that has been baked, or has been run together by heavy rains, or that has been im perfectly plowed in the beginning. For shallow cultivation, nothing surpasses the above named implements. Harrow the corn several times before and just of Georgia, and answer questions of Georgla farmers in the light of the best experience and practices not only in this state, but the worid over., Thess bulleting are not technical in their form, but are written with an end in view of being plain, practical and to the point. They are concise and the farmer can find what he wants with the least amount of reading. Among the bulleting which have been recently issued for the benefit of the Georgia farmer, and which are, sent free for the asking are the fol-! lowing. “Poultry on the Farm” byr'|l Prof. L. L. Jones; “Hog Raising in thel South,” by Prof. M. P. Jarnagin: “But-i ter Making on the Farm,” by Prof. J. W. Hart; “Cotton Variety Tests for| 1913,” by Prof. Loy E. Rast: "\'egeta-’ ble Gardening,” by Profs. T. H. Mec- Hatton and J. W. Firor; “Farm I)em-i onstration Work for 1913, by Prof. J. Phil Campbell; “Announcement of Extension Lecture Courses,” by Prof. G. W. Firor; “Boys’ CCorn Club Work, 1913,” by Prof. J. K. Giles. Others will soon be forthcoming, after it comes up so as to keep thel crust broken and prevent loss of moist ure. Cultivate every week, also after every rain, Corn should be thinned to a stand by the time it gets 12 inches high in or der to avoid the useless waste of plant food that goes into the extra plants. A custom that is prevalent in many parts of Georgia, is to do this thinning when the soil is too wet for any other kind of work. This 18 a bad custom and should be avoided if possible. Better results are had when corn is thinned to one stalk in a hill in con trast to leaving two or more stalks per hill at a greater distance in the row. The width of the rows should be determined by the fertility of the land. “The richer the soil the narrower the rows,” is a very good rule to follow. If the soil is very fertila the plants should, of course, be left thicker in the drill, 10 cent package Mince Meat 8 Cash Grocery Price ......... c Top Notch Coffee per pound 17 Cash Grocery Price ........ c Arbuckles Coffee, per pound 23 Cash Grocery Price ........ 3 One Ib. can Gold Coin Coffee 35 Cash Grocery Price ........ c Cream Cheese per pound 23 Cash Grocery Price ........ ﬂ 1 quart Puritan Grape Juice 39 Cash Grocery Price ........
