GROWING WINTER OATS IN THE SOUTH. Washington.—Every Southern farm er should grow enough outs to feed his work stock during at least a por tion of the year. In addition to fur nishing feed grain nt less cost than It can be purchased, fall-sown oats pre vent the washing of the soil by which much fertility Is frequently lost. There Is slid lime to sow winter oats in the Gulf States, though this work should he done at once if good results are to he obtained. According to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, oats sown In the South irn stales during October or the first half of November may be expected to produce at least twice the yield of grsln obtained from spring seeding. Winter grain ma}- b u sown on land which produced rf*crop of cotton, corn or cowpeas the past summer. If this U .d has not already been plowed. It be better to make the surface soil fine and loose with the disk or drag harrow than to delay seeding by plow ing new. Better results are obtained from sowing with the drill than from broadcast seeding, though if a drill Is not available sowing the seed broad cast on well-prepared land usually re sults In a good stand. If tho preced ing crop was well fertilized, 100 to 200 pounds of a* Id phosphate will he all that the oats require this fall, though a little nitrate of soda w|l| lie p the fall grow th, especially If the soil Is not air. ,iu.\ w ell supplied with nitrogen from growing of cowpeas or some other legume, A top dressing of 50 to 100 pounds of nitrate of soda applied when growth starts in the spring v-fii greatly Increase the yield. The variety of winter oats most com monly grow n In the South is Red Rust proof. Appier. Lawson, Hundred Bush el. Bancroft and Cook are selection* or strains of Red Rustproof which are saul tube particularly valuable n some localities. The Fulghum is a promising new variety which matures a week or ten days earlier than the Red Rustproof, and usually produce* a much or more grain. A* the ker nels of all these varieties are largo, from 2H to Jt* bushels should be sown to the a re. The smaller quan tity is sufficient f the seed Is drilled esrly on well-prepared land, while 3 bushels or more are needed when the seed l» sown broadcast late In the season. The Winter Turf or Virginia Gray t* a very hardy variety which t* valuable for pasture or hay production hut which does not yield as much gra:a In the Southern states as the Re>l Rustptoor On account of the email size of the kernels, only It* bushels ol aeeJ of this variety are required. THE AUGUSTA HERALD AUGUSTA, bA. Speaking ... THE... Public Mind WHERE BYMPATHY BELONGS. To The Herald: With whom do we sympathize In the pending war? Let me answer that. With the Ger man, French, Belgian and English boys who man the trenches. With the German, French, English and Bel gian boys who crowd the hospitals. With the mothers who bore these boya. With the fathers who saw them grow to manhood and loved them as they grew. With the women who were wedded to these boys. With the chil dren they left when they marched to the front. With the poor peasant wo man who struggles against the press of war-engendered poverty. With those who In the cities cry out for food. With the men who fight for father land, hating war in their hearts. With the great artists like Kreisler, who must turn their marvelous melody producing fingers to works of de struction. With the people who must live out their days with lives forever blighted by this war. With the Inno cent whose fields have been trampled under foot by marching armies. With all the host of those who under the press of a mistaken patriotism must offer up their lives. Those are tha ones with whom we sympathize. —A. D. A. Movies on Sunday. To The Herald: Hurrah for the City Fathers, They “killed” that so-called “tight lid" meas ure last night. Good for them, I say. It looked for a while like council was asleep, hut they realize at last that the best little city In the world Is los ing some of Its speed. Would some good church member please give the opinion of the church goers of Augusta on having the “mo vie” houses open their doors to the public on Sunday. Now, don’t get the idea that 1 would ask for the movies on the sensational type. Far from it we are not heathens. But would the church let Its congregations, both young and old, enjoy some of the many religious reels that are on the Georgia circuit. Don't you think a Sunday evening spent In looking at sacred pic tures would be better than carrying on much more evil pastimes? I think the “Public Mind” would be receptive Just now for the opinion ot one of Augusta's strict churchmen, on this subject. F. G. S. THE TWELFTH JUROR. To The Herald: I was In the courthouse for a while on Monday and was much interested in hearing the arguments in the cage of Will Slappy, the negro who shot and killed Ed Pointer, a negro who cut and Is alleged to have assaulted Slappy's sister. Messrs. Pierce and Williamson, lawyers for the defense, made out a particularly strong case, l thought, showing how their client, in the fury of seeing his sister maltreat ed, rushed on the scene with a gun; how he himself was attacked by the dead man with a knife, and how he shot, in the end, to defend his own life. Solicitor Franklin prosecuted the case with great vigor, pointing out from the evidence that the shooting took place three-quarters of an hour after the sister was cut by Pointer, and was an act of deliberate revenge on the part of tho defendant, amount ing to murder In the first degree. There was undoubted strength on both sides, so much so that, after re maining out 22 hours, the jury an nounced on Tuesday, as I read in your paper, that they were unable to reach a verdict. They stood eight for acquittal and four for conviction. Judge Hammond then delivered a short charge to the jurors and sent them hack to try again, especially em phasizing the Importance of being fair and open to conviction. In two more hours the jury report ed a mistrial, as I read in The Herald, standing eleven for acquittal and ONE FOR CONVICTION. It does seem to me that one Juror would not stand out ngßinst eleven and put the court to the trouble of trying the case al! over again. Give tho defendant the benefit of the doubt. HUMANITY.

GERMAN RETREAT NOT VICTORY ' FOR ALLIES So Says French Critic of Fall ing Back on Yser River---Ap pears Due to Exhaustion and Inundated Country. Paris, 6:55 a. m.—The Belgian of ficial communication designating as the “precipitate retreat" of the Ger mans before the advance of the allies on the Yser river In Belgium, was pleasing news to Parisians today, even though previous developments had given the hope that this soon would be the case. The significance of the move is the chief topic of discussion. Opinions differ somewhat as to the import of the of the Germans, who In falling back, it was stated, suffered considerable losses. Not Well Defined Win. General Berthaut, the military critio, in his comment on the news, did not regard the retreat as a Well defined victory for the allies. To him it ap peared more like a falling back as the result of exhaustion and because the Germans found it Impossible to re main any longer In the Inundated country. He pointed out that the Belgians similarly had been obliged to withdraw the railroad from Dlx mude to Nieuport in consequence of the inundations. More Important. What appeared more important to General Berthaut was the advance south from Dixmude. This is the part of the Belgian front, already much disputed, which extends from Dix mude to the east of the Ypres. Colonel Roussett, the critto of the Petit Parisian, however, viewed the retreat from the Y'ser in another light and said It was more than a simple check. “The retreat, In fact, Is partial," he wrote, “but It Is none the less sig nificant.” MIDDLE WEST CHAMPIONS BUY-COTTON-GOODS PLAN Is Recent Inspiring Feature From Buy-a-Bale Movement. Women Wear Cotton Uoods.

The "buy-cotton-goods” slogan has been heralded throughout the United States and thousands of people, espe cially women, are now wearing cotton clothing who In normal tiroes would not have thought of such a thing at this reason of the year An interesting example of the Inter est In this movement is a full pag* advertisement by Kenney’s, one of the larg< department stores of Canton, 0., In the Canton Repository of recent date, proclaiming a monster cotton goods sale and calling on Its customers to "help the South."
