GEORGIA’S GREAT .
CONFEDERATE
MONUMENT
Army of Workers Will
Commence Carving Side
of Stone Mountain
i
This mouth an army of cutters
and carvers will descend on Stone
Mountain, fifteen miles from At¬
lanta, Ga., and chisel on the side
of the world’s greatest granite
mountain a gigantic memorial to
the dead heroes of the Confedera¬
cy. On a big bump in the center
of the north side of the cliff, where
it is a sheer drop of a mile from
the top of the mountain to the
earth, will appear the figures of
Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis and
Stonewall Jackson leading an army
of infantry, cavalry and artillery
in heavy marching order, around
the mountain’s side.
The heroic figures will be 55 feet
in height and will be visible for
many miles around.
The first step will be to build a
road to the top of the mountain, to
transport material. The highway,
already started, will ascend in ser¬
pentine curves, the natural form
of the rock making its construe
tiou easy.
Once the material is carried to
the top, a gigantic steel scaffold
yig will be riveted against the cliff,
just below the site of the memo
rial. It will be suspended in mid¬
air halfway between base and
summit, supported by gigantic ca¬
bles such as hold a suspension
bridge.
Steel workers, lowered on cables
to which they are strapped, by
spring will have the scaffolding
ready for the actual carving of the
memorial to begin. Then Gutzon
Borglum, sculptor, will block out
on the face of the cliff in white
lead paint the size of the figures
in his composition. He has com
pleted most of the models in his
studio at Stamford, Conn., and
will take them to Atlanta when the
scaffolding is ready, for the cutters
and carvers to copy.
The latter will descend to the
scaffolding from the top of the
mountain by a circular staircase
set solid to the body of the rock.
As they work upward, additional
floors to the scaffolding will be
raised. Telephone wires will be
installed from the scaffolding to
the top of the mountain a half
mile above, where Borglum will
be in personal supervision of the
job. A power pL lit and a com
pressed air plant also will be in¬
stalled.
No dynamite will be used
throughout the work. The cutters
and carvers drill rows of holes
along the lines marked out for them
by Borglum, quarrying the rock
away from hole to hole as you
would tear a check from a perfor¬
ated stub. When they have rough¬
ed out the figures, Borglum and
his assistants will go over the
ground after them, chipping and
chiseling until life has been put
onto every face and form. It is
believed the memorial will be fin¬
ished in ten years.

USE GROUND LIME¬
STONE FOR PEANUTS
0 -
A LEGUME THAT CALLS FOR LIME
AND PAYS WELL FOR
ITS USE
By ANDREW M. SOULE, President
Ga. State College Of Agriculture
It will be found to be good practice
to use finely ground limestone on land
intended for peanuts. The limestone,
or agricultural lime as it is frequently
called, should be bought by analysis,
as the various brands manufactured
differ in quality and value. We believe
it will be a mistake to apply less than
1,000 pounds per acre, and in many
cases it will be good practice to use
as much as 2,000 pounds per acre. It
is not necessary to lime land oftener
than once every three years. The use
of lime will prevent to a large extent
the formation of “pops” and increase
the yield of peanuts. The use of
ground limestone in southwest Geor¬
gia will become a matter of general
interest, now that the farmers in that
section are turning more specifically
to the growth of leguminous crops on
account of the boll weevil invasion.
Where a large area is to be limed,
a lime distributor can be used to dis
tribute the ground limestone most
economically and uniformly. Lime can,
of course, be scattered broadcast from
a wagon bed, and the farmer who can¬
not afford to purchase a distributor
should follow this plan. Care should
be used to distribute the lime uniform¬
ly. The ground should be plowed be¬
fore the lime is applied. It may then
be broadcasted over the land and har¬
rowed in. Lime should not be mixed
with acid phosphate according to our
understanding of this problem. When
this is done we think a certain
amount of the available phosphorous
in the acid phosphate is changed into
a form that is less available to the
plants for food.
It will be a mistake not to put acid
phosphate under the peanuts. We be¬
lieve 300 to 500 pounds per acre will
give profitable returns, and when pot¬
ash can be bought at normal prices it
should also be used.
Varieties Of Velvet Beans
JOHN R. FAIN, Prof. Of Agronomy,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture
The variety of velvet beans to plant
depends- upon the length of the grow¬
ing season. It should utilize all of the
growihg season to make the largest
yield; hence in southern Georgia it
is better to have a late variety.
In more northern parts of Georgia,
however, beans with shorter growing
season, or shorter period between ger¬
mination and maturity, should be se¬
lected. *

The trade hears of Ninety Day and
One Hundred Day Velvet beans. As
a matter of fact, there are none such.
No velvet bean matures, in ninety days
and we have discovered none that ma¬
tures in one hundred days. In fact,
it may be reckoned that early velvet
beans will not mature under 120 days
and the medium not under 160 days.
No one, therefore, should be misguided
by these misleading names in deter¬
mining when to plant to obtain ma¬
