ter and quality, we believe this would
be a good formula for you to use this
year under your cotton. We would adj
wise the use of at least SEQ pounds per
acre. A mixture that will give the above
percentages may be prepared as follows
Mix together 1900 pounds of high-grade
acid phosphate containing at least 16 per
cent of phosphoric acid; $50 pounds of
nitrate of soda; 400 pounds of cotton-seed
meal containing at least Sis per cent of
nitrogen, 2 to 90 per cent of phosphoric
100 pounds Of muriate of potash. All the
nitrate of soda should not be mixed with
the fertilizer and put in the soil, how
ever, at least 80 pounds should be re-
served and applied as a top dressing. To
bring the amount up to 1900 pounds add
$50 pounds of rich compost or earth to
take the place of the nitrate of soda held
I'm reserve for use in top dressing. YOU
may of course use tankage in place of
the 400 pounds of cotton-se meal as a
source of nitrogen, you may use
blood in the place of nitrate of soda.
Blood only contains IL to IA per cent Of
nitrogen, whereas high-grade nitrate Of
soda contains 1916 to l per cent, and it is
relatively cheaper in so far as we can
Judge than blood. You should remember
that the thorough preparation of the land
and the use of a selected strain of seed
are of as much Importance as the mere
applica ton of a large amount of a high
grade fertilizer. We believe you will find
the above mixture satisfactory.

OFFICIAL FLA @ DAY JUNE II.

"one flag. one land. one heart. one
hand:
One nation, evermore."
oliver Wendell Holmes
Today is the 1880 birthday anniver-
sary of the American flag. The date,
June IA, 1777. has been accurately fix
ed by the action of the continental
congress as recorded in the Journal OF
congress. That body was then sitting
in Philadelphia, having moved over
March from a little over two months
sitting in Baltimore.
The Stars and Stripes first appear
ed floating over the headquarters OF
General George Washington on the
heights of Cambridge. near Boston
of our Country promulgated his in
iividual declaration of independence
When the British soldiers saw the
flag they imagined 1t was a token OF
submission, but very soon discovered
their error.
The British Register of 1175 says;
THE rebels burned the kings speech
and changed their colors from a plain
red ground to a flag with 13 stripes, as
a symbol of their union of 13 colonies
From January 2. 1875, to July 4. 1776
six months elapsed before the promuI-
cation of the Declaration OF lndepend-
ence of the United States. Moreover
almost another year elapsed before the
national emblem was officially sent up-
on its mission of universal love anc
liberty. Thus Washington was one
year and half in advance OF congress
in flinging this "Old Glory" OF ours
to the free air of heaven.
The official order OF congress on
June IA read as follows: Resolved
that the flag of the 13 United States
shall be of 10 stripes of alternate rec
and white; with a union Of IL stars OF
white in a blue field, representing j
new constellation"
The report of the committee who de-
signed and passed upon the flag reads
as follows: The stars Of the flag
represent a new constellation of states
rising in the west. The idea is taken
from the great constellation Lyra'
which, in the hands or Orpheus, sig
miles harmony. The blue in the field
is taken from the edge Of the covenan-
ters banner, in Scotland, significant OF

PRESIDENT MOORE WRITES
TO. STATE RURAL CARRIERS

price to go and get acquainted with the
carriers from all over Georgia.
I hope that every carrier in Georgia
will make II his individual business to see
that the r. L. G. association of the En-
pire State of the South does not wane,
but will lend his best efforts to it's pro-
motion, and by so doing we can build up
one that will be q power. Not in the
way of demanding certain legislation, but
people in authority will know from our
earnestness that we are desperately in
earnest about something, and will want
to cater, not to our whims, but to our
necessities, for in union there is strength,
and we all know that our present pay Is
not commensurate with the work and
expenses.
Brother carriers, as a final appeal to
you officially, let me beg you to become
a member of our state association If
you are not already a member, and give
us the pleasure of your presence at
Rome. and the power of your good Will
end membership to turn over to our sue
cessor, that our next years work may
yield better results, and have less i'm
pediments to it's progress than has been
the case this year. The time is now
upon us, and what is done this year must
be done now. Can 1 depend on you?
Yes, 1 confidently believe that 1 can, for
know that there are no nobler set OF
men on Gods green earth than the rural
carriers that daily traverse every nook
and corner of this great commonwealth
and shall continue to believe thus until
you prove by your persistence otherwise.
Confidently expecting TO meet at least
800 of the 1900 carriers of Georgia at
Rome July AS, remain,
Yours fraternally,

difficulty and prevent a threatened
strike The mediators brought the
parties together on several points and
1t was agreed to submit the remaining
unsettled matters to arbitration. The
railroad and the men each appointed a
representative on the board OF arbilra-
ton, and as these two representatives
were unable to agree upon a third MEM
Der of the board, according to law. 1t
devolved upon Chairman Knapp and
Commissioner Neill to make the third
selection, which they did in the person
of Professor Vance.
There are 2,1O0 telegraphers on the
Southern system and the increase in pay,
consequently amounts to approximately
$40 per man per annum. The hours or
the one-operator offices were shortened
from 10 hours to 10 and where two or
more operators are employed, the hours
were reduced from nine to eight.
Fifteen days leave of absence with pay
was awarded to all operators who have
to work as much as five hours day on
Sunday or upon legal holidays. This ap-
plies to telephone operators as well as
telegraphers.

To the Rural Carriers of Georgia: Our
annual convention will be held in the
beautiful Hill City of north Georgia
Rome-on Monday and Tuesday, July 40,
and the good people of Rome are show

our coming, and are making all the prep
aration necessary for our entertainment.
Thepostmaster, Mr.. Barclay land Ro-
mans tell us there are none better to
be found, is very enthusiastic In ar
ranging everything that everybody may
have a good time, and says that he wants
all the postmasters that possibly can to
come. for to them perhaps better oppor-
tunities are offered to thoroughly har-
monize and improve the whole r. F. d.
system than to any other like number OF
people on earth, and they can better I'M
derstand the plans for improvement by
attending our conventions. Don't you
think 1t a good idea? If so, try to get
your postmaster to attend, and be sure
to go with him, and assure you that he
will be accorded a hearty welcome, and
I believe that he will render much valu-
able assistance, and possibly he may gain
some information through our official
Representatives, for he will know what a
bureau of information this one feature OF
our convention has proven.
Senator Clay has given us his promise
that he will be with us in the event that
congress has adjourned at that time. Also,
some Of our worthy congressman have
promised to be with us on the same con-
dition. We have the promise of official
representation, probably General De-
Graw himself, and with many other

did local entertainment guaranteed
every hour of our convention will be re-
plete with interest In addition to all
these good things, it will be worth the

Now, as to the origin and significance
Of Flag Day" The significance you
will have already discovered. The
origin of Flag Day was on June Ia,
1889. The originator was George Bloch.
who was in charge of a free kinder
garten for the poor in New York city.
This patriotic educator conceived the
idea and put 1t into execution with his
obscure school on June Ia, 1889. IN
stantly the idea struck popular cnord'
1t was subsequently adopted by the
state board of education. Then 1t was
incorporated into the laws of New
York.
AS early as June, 1851, an attempt
was made to establish flag day by
an act of congress, and bill was intro
duced by a Connecticut member, but the
other members began to make merry
with it, and it was laid upon the table
by a vote of 81 to SO. Other attempts
at national legislation were made later.
but never with any success.
The origin and significance of Flag
Day." coupled with the teaching or the
history of the origin and significance or
the flag itself, should encourage and
develop patriotism in our youth. Study
of the subject, reflection upon lts
merit, inspires patriotism. and tncites
the hope that in due season Flag Day
may become a national holiday for our
public schools; one day in each year set
apart for the devotion Of the rising gen.
erations to our Star Spangled Ban
