TO gApEGUARD
THE FARMERS

WASHINGTON. Nov. H.-Schemes to
defraud the farmer and the would-be far
mer. meaning the city man, who is at
tached to the country by glazing adver-
tisements are receiving the attention of
the department of agriculture and it is
probable that Secretary Wilson, in his
forthcoming annual report will sound
note of warning to the over credulous.
Tracts of almost pure sand left after
the cutting of pine trees are being adver-
tised as farming lands of the finest de-
scription; undrained swamps are describ-
ed as priceless possessions, and all sorts
of inducements are held out to attract
purchasers of these alleged worthless
lands A favorite device is to set many
thousands of slips or cutting of fruit trees
on common range lands incapable of pro-
Gr cling anything better than sage brush
and another is to offer to the unwary
seeds or bulbs of some remarkable hybrid
plant that will produce thousands of dol
lars an acre.
The real character of these lands agri-
cultural department officials say, can be
easily ascertained Nv i~~uiry of the state
authorities.
A few months ago the department of ag-
riculture caused an investigation into the
merits of a berry which was advertised
to be a wonderful hybrid combining the
properties of the rarest fruits, but it was
found that it had little or no value as
fruit product.

enrichment This means that one must
get ready for growing wheat year Oh
two i'm advance of when he expects 10
saad the land The idea that we can
leave off the preparation of the soil Tor
any crop until we are ready to utilize the
land and then rush in and prepare IL ana
expect to grow an unusually large crop
is one of the great mistakes OF our pres
ent system of practice. There is no ms
of business which requires such carefui
manning and the exercise of such intell-
gent ,forethought as farming. By the use
of green crops, we can put the vegetable
matter needed in the soils for wheat
growing and enrich the land with nitro
gen from the air at a much lower cost
than by depending solely on commercial
fertilizers as the source OF nitrogen. we
may, of course, enrich the soil with farm
ward manure. but it would take an APP
plication of 10 to 20 tons per acre to put
most of the land in ideal condition for
wheat, and since we have not the sup
plies of farmyard manure, we must look
to other ways of securing an adequate
supply of vegetable matter. After en-
riching the soil with vegetable matter we
would pillow and prepare it thoroughly
but we would not turn under farmyard
manure, using it rather as top dress
ing. Top dressing had best be done just
when cold weather is coming on, as 1t
protects the young plants and invigorates
them. After preparing the land in the
most careful and thorough manner to a
good depth, we would apply at least 300
to 400 pounds of high-grade acid phos-
phate, the larger amount on sandy lands
and the smaller amount on clay lands,
with so to 100 pounds of muriate of pot
ash On lands deficient in nitrogen and
vegetable matter at least 100 pounds of
high-grade cotton seed meal should be
used with the phosphates and potash.
The ACCESSIBILITY of top dressing in the
spring will depend a great deal on the
condition In which the crop comes through
the winter.
1t is important that you select your
seed with care and get a variety well
adapted to your local environment. Use
only seed of high-grade and strong ger
minating power. Most people seem to
think that If they fertilize the land and
prepare it with any degree Of care, they

CONSERVING FERTILITY
THROUGH CROP ROTATIONS

Of nitrogen, 80 pounds of phosphorie
acid and 81 pounds Of potash, you begin
to see why a crop rotation becomes i'm
portant because where wheat alone is
grown, there Is no way of supplying ME
trogen to the soil except in an artificial
form, which will have no influence on
the mechanical condition or texture of
the land. When three crops of corn,
yielding 29.4 bushels per acre with the
slower, are taken from the land, 222
pounds of nitrogen, 70 pounds of phos-
phorie acid and 1S9 pounds of potash are
permanently removed from the soil. This
means the permanent removal of 106
pounds of nitrogen more than where a
rotation is practiced, II pounds Of phos-
phoric acid and 50 pounds of potash, in
dicating how rapidly the soil will de-
teriorate when exhausting crops are
grown continuously, and how utterly i'm
possible it will be to maintain a proper
balance Of the food constituents in the
soil, even where a low yield of corn is
secured, provided 1t be grown continu-
ously on the soil.
Nature has provided the means through
crop rotation by which the farmer MAJ
permanently enrich his land in nitrogen
and raise increased crops. The mineral
elements must, however, be supplied in a
commercial form, yet II is easily pos
sible for the farmer to supply the
amounts Of potash and phosphoric acid
needed to meet the requirements Of ever
increasing crops on his land with profit
TO himself. while giving permanence and
stability to the productiveness of the land.
Why neglect rotation when il will con-
fer such important and lasting benefits
and when It is so easily practicable to
make 1t OF permanent benefit to our agri-
culture?

JUBILEE OF THE POPE
DULY CELEBRATED

ROME, Nov. 16.-Today is the episcopal
jubilee of Pope Plus X. Many messages
of congratulation and good will reached
the vatican. the number including sever
al from America. The pope celebrated
mass in the private chapel, admitting
only his sisters from Venice with whom
he afterwards breakfasted.
Later in the day he received the officials
of the vatican and to these the pontif
showed the gold pectoral cross which
was given him by Pope Leo in 1884 upon
the occasion of his appointment as bishop
of Mantua
The rumor is persistent that Mgr. Fall
comic will be created a cardinal. 1t is re-
ported that he will be replaced as apos-
tolic delegate at Washington by Mon
signor Agius, now apostolic delegate at
Manila, Monsignor Aversa, apostolic DEL
egate to Cuba, or Monsignor Stagni arch
bishop of Aquila, who lived many years
in America.

GEORGIA MAN KILLED
IN FIGHT IN FLORIDA

NEW SMYRNA. Fla, Nov. 16.-As the
alleged result Of quarrel over the rental
of house, w. P. Robertson. of Madison,
Ca, was shot and instantly killed by
County Commissioner S. B. Owens. at
Oak Hill, Fla. The verdict of the coro-
ner's jury was that the killing was justi-
fable.
The two men are said to have had a
quarrel about the rental of house, and
Owens claims that Robertson drew a
knife and commenced to cut him, infiict-
Ing a severe wound on the arm and cut
ting his collar in two. Owens then drew
his revolver, shooting Robertson five
times causing almost instant death.
Mr.. Owens is a prominent turpentine
operator, and Robertson conducted a large

The big red apple is the king of fruits.
Fifty-five per cent of all the fruit trees
in America are apple trees, and they
yield more than so per cent of all the
orchard fruits produced by the nation.
There are 2OO0O0,OO0 apple trees and the
average crop per year is about a bushel
for each tree. If all these trees were to
bear a full crop in any one year the
United States could feed the whole world
with apples. Notwithstanding the decline

There is but one satisfactory RENE
dy for destroying weevils in wheat or
other stored grain. In the first place.
great cleanliness should be exercised
in preparing bins to receive the grain.
They may be treated for the destruc-
ton OF the weeviI If grain has been
stored in them before any is again
placed therein. In this case one pound
of carbon bisulphide should be used to
each 1000 cubic feet OF space. Where
the grain is stored in a tight bin the
best plan is to evaporate the carbon
bisulphide in vessels containing from
one-half to one pound. The bisulphide
is poured in the vessels and set on top
the grain. When the bin is tight one
pound per ton Of grain is enough; where
IT is open at least twice this amount
would have TO De used for efficient re-
suits Bins may be rendered nearly
air tight If covered securely with can
vas or blankets. The treatment should
be given for about "a hours, but may
be continued for 90 hours without in
juring the terminating power of the
grain or it's value for flour making. or
course, grain that has been treated
with bisulphide should be well aerat-
ed before sacking and taking to the
mill Since the weeviI muItiplies very
fast, and there are likely to be eggs in
the grain at the time of treatment, 1t
is we'll to repeat the treatment every
three or four weeks.

HOW TO SECURE LARGE YIELDS
or WHEAT.
q. e. Y, Tennille, Ga, writes: What
grade of land is best to grow wheat to
get the best yield per acre?f When is
the best time to SOW, and how much
fertilizer should be used per acre to
obtain 80 or 10 bushels?
II one had the choice of the selection
Of land on which to grow wheat, he
would probably take a deep, rich veg
etable soil similar to that found in the
Red River valley OF the north, since
there is probably no section of the
United States where wheat has been
grown with greater perfection than in
the territory mentioned.
BY this 1 do not mean to infer for
one moment that wheat cannot be sue
cessfully grown in Georgia and
throughout the entire south, but our
soils will require an enrichment which
was native 10 the soils OF the Red
River valley, and it will take skillful
farming and good management on our
part and the intelligent use of ferti-
lizers to insure anything like as large
a yield as you suggest In your letter,
and II we propose to grow wheat pro-
rltaDly and secure high yields. there
tore, ii would seem that we must en-
deavor TO so handle our land as to make
it resemble as nearly as possible, that
on which wheat is grown to the great
est perfection. OF course, the soils
available in Georgia for wheat produc-
ton vary widely, and a sandy soil
would be more difficult to bring IN
condition for the growth Of wheat than
red loan soil, such as is found In
many sections of north Georgia.
To bring the greater part of the land
available for wheat production in Georgia
into condition for this crop, we would
first suggest the use of legumes for soil
