Committee Has Hard Task in
Naming 1.-TWO PrettieSt and
Brightest" Young Women.

70 be designated "the two prettiest
and brightest" girls in a Sunday school
in which are scores Of pretty and bright
girls is an honor calculated to bring a
great big, broad smile to the faces of
most any two girls. Such a distinction
is borne proudly today by two members
of the Woodward Avenue Baptist Sun
day schooI-NIiss Ira farrell and Miss
Edna Still-who also are members Of
the Girls High school.
Misses FARRELL and Stiu are chosen
by committee of eight men of the
Sunday school, known as the mystic
rious committee" for the reason that
their names have not been made public.
When it was determined a few days
ago to raise a special fund in the school
the movers agreed on a pleasant sur
prise for the donors-blue ribbons OF
honor would be pinned on each by the
two prettiest and brightest girls in the
Sunday school Then came the problem
of choosing the two girls. and this task
finally was left to secret committee of
eight men.
Committeeman willing to serve were
not easily found, but, after many ex-
cuses had been heard, the eight men
finally We're corraled and sent out ito
do their duty"
1t was no easy job by any means, but.
after thorough canvass of the school
and careful scrutiny of the many
pretty girls the committee reached d
verdict
Miss farrell and Miss Still then were
notified that they had been chosen.
Sunday morning the two smiling girls
We're called to the platform by Super
inteudent c. H. Bolton, of the Sunday
school, and took their stand beside a
table bearing a great heap of blue rib
bon bows. As each donor then came
forward with a contribution, the two
girls pinned on a bow And that they
came fast is attested by the fact that
100 persons left the building wearing
bows
Miss farrell is a daughter Of Mrs
Mittie Il. farrell and lives at $50 Wood
ward avenue. Miss still. who is a
daughter of Luther II. StiH, lives at 62S
Woodward avenue.

Moseley, who was the Oldest member of
the Macon police force, one of the most

the number of medals worn by him.
Frequently the front of his coat would
be literally covered with medals, many

FINE DAIRYING METHODS IN
DENMARK Jr

The aim Of the Danish a. -
Keep the largest number Of etu.- 2,
COWS possible on given area, COW
to 21a acres or less. Enough Young
stock is raised to keep the herd sup
Piled with COWS.
From their feeding Of oil cake and
meal and the stall feeding Of ggreen
crops, an immense amount of manure
OF nne quality is made, and with their
careful methods of husbanding the
solids IN covered manure pit and the
nqulds IN ciStern. and applying in
small quantities at frequent intervals
during the rotation, the producing
power Of their land is increasing from
year to year
$50. Only the best heifers are raised
and with the record Of the dam and
the quality Of the sire known, their
selection is comparatively simple.
The SOiling of crops used are rye,
oats and peas, oats and vetch and
clover and grass. These are hauled
to the barn and fed green, or pastured
off by tethering the COWS along the
edge
In the cool European countries the
soiling seasdn Of the crop is much
longer. The cows are seldom turned
to pasture in Denmark, but tethered
by means of halter on the head aud
q rope or chain twelve to twenty feet
long, which is attached 10 a ten-lnch
pin driven into the ground.
The cows are moved five times q
day from three to six feet, depending
upon the amount OF feed.
Thus the crops are Srazed off even
when two or three feet high without
waste from manuring. This Is the
Danes chief point Of economy in the
| summer feed.
Practically no grain is fed while
the cows are on grass. A few dairy
men feed little oil cake to their bes'
| mixers.
Water is hauled twice day to the
! tethered cows. Many small dairymer
! take the cows to the stable to be
MIXED three times a day.
They are stabbed all winter, fed al
the straw they will eat and on tht
average of four pounds Of hay. 40 t(
100 pounds Of roots and about 81,
pounds of grain per day, consisting O.
oil cake, bran, barley and oats.
An even flow Of milk is required tn
year around and most Of the COW
freshen from September TO May.

WHAT is FARM MANURE
WORTH?

IN a,..nite of all that has been writ
ten 'Sig OF the value of stable
manure there are many farmers who
by-product of the farm and spend
their money for commercial fertilizer
[ do not wish to discourage the use
Of commercial fertilizer, but it should
never be used until the stable manure
is first taken care of and applied to
the soil, if there is not sufficient
manure to meet the demands Of the
farm crops the deficiency should be
supplied by using commercial fertil-
iZer.
1t is rather difficult to estimate the
value Of stable manure in dollars and
cents as commercial fertilizers are
valued, since the stable manure adds
much valuable humus to the soil as
we'll as direct plant food and the com
mefcial fertilizer is valued for the
direct plant food alone.
DR.. Aikman says that the humus
Of the stable manure is worth quite
as much to the soil as the direct
plant food. Naluing the phosphoric
acid at ffy cents per pound, the pot
ash at five cents per pound and the
/ nitrogen at . cents per pound a fair
average value of the stable manure
may be estimated as follows:
| 10 pounds nitrogen at ; cents. 5 !. l. 20
10 pounds potash at cents so
I pounds phOSphOric acid at )
| cents .25
1925
Then if we add the value Of the
/ humuS, commits iSSiOn charged by
agents and freight on commercial fer
tiliZer we may still be conservative
when we double the commercial value
of the manure and count ton OF
| We1lcared for stable manure worth
$3.50 to the farm.
It's value is not appreciated because
it is a by-product and because farm
ers have fallen into the habit OF neg
lecting to properly care for the man
ure and apply it judciously.
The manure when allowed to &C
cumuiate about the stables is in the
way and is q repulsive, bad-smellin9
product, but when drawn to the fielt
and distributed over the soil b
means Of spread ders it is out Of the
Way and is also preparing the soil K
grow a large crop.-W. Fl. X.

THE, GROWTH AND MANAGE
MENT OF DOUGLAS FIR IN
THE PACIFIC NOKTHWES

The most important timber tree in
the Pacific Northwest is Douglas Fir.
Known by several different names IN
different sections of that coast, 1t
comprises from so to so per cent OF
the standing timber and fortunately
tor the future of the forests Of the
Pacific Northwest, the Douglas Fir ls
a vigorous tree which produces with
out much assistance and often against
severe obsta cles, excellent second
growth stands.
Fire does the most injury to these
forests, both in its direct and indirect
damaging effects, for parasitic fungi
enter the tree through the scars due
tc. fire, grow. feed upon the wood, and
produce decay.
The general welfare Of the Pacific
Northwest demands that the lumber
industry be perpetuated and that the
potential timbereland Of these States
| remain productive Of the greatest
qua nifty of the best quality OF lum-
Der.
The Department of Agriculture has
issued statement (Circular lis,
| Forest Service), as to how new
| crop Of timber can be started on log
ged-Off land, what conditions are fay
orable to its development, what its
rate Of growth and yield will be, and
what should be the probable cost OF
securing the second crop.
Logging should be done on all land
which is not agricultural in character
in such a way that the tree growth
will not be annihilated. but that q
second crop may take the place of the
one Just removed. To this end pro
vision must be made for seed trees
to seed the area; the slashinSs should
be burned Immediately to form a see
bed: and the cut-over area must DC
protected from subsequent fires TheSe
preca utions will promote and ln5ur5
the development Of a new crop who's
growth will be rapid and whose l':ai-
ity will be in time equal to that OF
the original forest. This crop will be
finally profitable to private owners
although OF course the harvest time
will be 100 years hence, a short 70
ItatiOn when it is considered that g
majority Of the timber being nov
logged in western Washington ane
Oregon is upward Of 200 years old
and should yield a net profit ov,l
all, expenses Of approximately s5ss ~
acre.

PROVIDE PLENTY OF SALT.

All farm animals have an instinct
i've craving for salt. But il it is SO
placed as to be always within their
reach they will consume just as much
as they need and no more. 1t is only
when it has been kept from them for
a long period that there is danger of
their eating too much. 1t is there
fore an excellent practice to keep it
in a box or boxes where they can
have access TO it whenever they
desire. When they are salted, as is
the practice with many farmers. only
once I; week. while some may get
enough, others may suffer from de-
ficient supply. Salt promotes an act
i've circulation of the blood, which
never becomes thick and sluggish 50
long as the supply is plentiful; it as
sists digestion, and is often d prevent
i've Of disease 1t is 50 cheap that no
stock raiser can really afford to deny
to his animals all they want of it.

The first season let grape vines
grow at will The following season
prune back the strongest canes to
three or four eyes and remove the
others After the buds start in the
spring leave the two strongest shoots
to grow and rub off the others. The
two shoots are the canes which form
the permanent arms Of the vines and
will bear the upright shoots from
which the fruit Of succeeding years
is to be obtained. Pruning may be
done any time. according to the local
ity from December to March but
after it is not advisable. The prin-
ciple to remember in pruning grapes
is that fruit never grows on last year s
wood but always on the new WOOD
of the present seasons s growth.

Light Envelopes in Germany

From the Washington Post.
 Ever notice that letters received from Germany are inclosed in thin envelopes, with eolored inside?' remarked Curt Wolheim of Berlin, at the Willard "The question has frequentlp been asked me whether this was because the foreigner demands something a little fancier than the people of this country.
 Not at all. The reason is that the ct- izens of Germany, where most of the en- Velopes are maSe. are conservationists The German double envelope is only half as heavy as the American envelope cf equal size. The paper is very thin. And this is used primarily to cut down the cost of postage. It is a clever ana attractive envelope. There apparently Is no demand for such an envelope in this country If there should be the Amer ican envelope makers would have to get their machinery for making them from abroad"

Minority Leader Mann and Representative Graham

DEMOCRAT DEMANDS
 PROOF OF CHARGES
Reiterates Denial That Woman Is in Employ of Committee-Fellow Members Block Any Attempt

Washington, April 13-The lie was
 passed upon the floor of the House to- day, and a very bitter debate was pre-
 cipitated between the minority leader,
 MT. Mann. and Representative Graham of
 Illinois, chairman of the interior depart
 ment expenditures committee, over the
 case of Mrs. Helen Pierce Gray, said to
 be lobbyist on Indian affairs
 Mir Mann said in lieu of an explanation
 an investigation had been made of the
 case.
 Yesterday on the floor MT. Mann said
 Mrs Gray, upon the advice of MT. Gra7
 ham, had refused to return to an Indian
 client a protested fee. Today when MT.
 Graham discovered Mir. Mann's remarks
 in the record, the storm broke. Mr Graham called upon him to produce
 the proofs of his charge. The minority leader read a number of letters and tee- grams bearing on the connection of Mrs. Gray with the committee. | MT. Graham reiterated that Mrs Gray
 was not employed by the committee | MT. Mann retorted by reading letter
 written recently by MT. Graham to Sec
 retary Fisher, introducing Mrs. Gray and | asking that she be given access to cer- tain files in the general land office for
 the purpose of gathering information flor | the committee
 MT. Mann also declared a certain attor | ney had appeared before the committee in the Controller bay case and although it was denied he appeared for sthe com mttee, he had filed a bill for s1000 and had received $200 on account "The attorney in question did not receive one cent from the ccmmittee,'
 shouted MT. Graham jumping to his | feet.
 'It Is passing strange" returned Mir.
 Mann, but the committee on accounts informs me that it paid out $200 to this attorney for services rendered before the committee. Who Is paying these
 people? Who is paying Mrs. Gray? Who \paid this attorney?'

ing, too," Mr. Bryan said. Tt is for pub licity to reveal the true ownership or Newspapers have been dark lanterns. They have thrown light In spots but have not revealed the identity of the holder of the light. There are pub fishers who employ brilliant editors to mislead the people while the owners pick their pockets. Who will defend a system which permits newspapers to assassinate the character of a public man and then hide themselves behind the corporation ownership of newspapers?"
