Throws Away 9,160.

Misers have great resourcefulness
in selecting hiding places for, their
treasures, but they rarely adopt the
methods employed by traveller on the
railway line between Lescar and Pau,
in France This individual, who owned
an estate worth about $48,700, sold all
his property and insisted upon being
paid the full purchase price in nego-
table bearer shares and in coupons
payable to the Bank of France.
He disposed of some of his money,
and then during a brief halt of the
train approaching Pau threw his peck
etbook containing the remainder, ap-
proximately $39, 160, into a hedge bor-
dering the line.
There it was found recently by a
hedge clipper, who deposited his find
at the nearest police station. By the
laws of France it will become his
property at the end of twelve months
unless the original owner claims it
and proves his right. =

Weeks In Senatorial Fight

Boston, Jan. 12.-After taking five
ballots and still remaining in dead
lock. although Mccall replaced Weeks

Republican caucus for the nomination
for a candidate Tor the nomination of
a candidate for United States senator
to succeed Mr.; Crane until Monday
afternoon
The Democrats have called a caucus
fer Monday afternoon. Many think
that, If the Republicans make no
nomination, the Democrats will make
none, and that the whole thing will
be thrown into the house and senate
on Tuesday and into the joint conv"n-
ton of Wednesday with neither party
having a caucus nomination.
On the last ballot, the twenty sec
ond, the vote stood:
Number of votes, 157; Mccall, 70;

BY STAFF OF GA. STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
CONVINCING EVIDENCES THAT
SCIENTIFIC FARMING PAYS IN GEORGIA


The graduates from the Georgia
State College of Agriculture speak for
themselves in every community
where they are known. They are the
most successful and progressive one
has reported net earnings of $4,000
out of his operations in 1912 and has
introduced new industry in his
community.
The College farm brought an in
come of $S.5814l in 1912 and Melted
earnings of $2,24696. A dairy herd
netted profit of $1,S176O OF a profit
of $6O.5S per COW.
Under the direction of the College
OF Agriculture and the United States
Department of Agriculture the hoys OF
the Corn Clubs produced approximate
ly 100000 bushels of corn at net profit
Of $244,G00. One girl netted in the
tomato club $69.15 on one-tenth Of an
acre or nearly 800 per acre. The
average profit per tenth acre of all
girls in the tomato clubs during 1912
was $24.SS Or SPAS per acre
By use of crop rotations, legumes
soil improvement and seed selection,
the College has shown on its own
farm an increase in corn from II TO
100 bushels per acre and of cotton
from one-half to three bales per acre.
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1913-04-25

From these tests it is clear that the
best-looking corn is not always the
best seed corn. Other methods must
be employed TO increase the yields
An increased number of farmers
of Georgia have determined to en-
gage in breeding corn this year and
build up the yielding power Of this
crop. To do this they will conduct
plat tests, keeping accurate tab ON
each ear. When the corn has taGBel-
ed, they will remove the tassels from
alternating hills to make sure that
the corn is fortified by another stalk
and not by itself, From these stalks
that have been detasseled will be
taken the seed com for the next
year.
The best ears will be chosen from
this lot for the following years tests.
while the rest are used in planting
the field. terminating tests viii, Of
course, be made before planting.
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1913-04-25

Farmers in cooperation with dem
onstration agents showed that under
right selection of varieties of corn
yield of an average OF 81 bushels
per acre as against A bushels per
acre for inferior varieties. Demonstra.
tons in apple culture have shown 95
per cent OF crop is made salable.
where the unsprayed showed only s
per cent. salable.
In cooperation with the Central OF
Georgia railroad. forty-acre farms -
several in number-each operated by
one man and two mules in 1912,
showed profits where money was lost
on many adjoining farms
Three thousand corn demonstrators
in Georgia located in 60 counties with
acreage $4,000, produced an average
yield of 35 bushels or three times the
average for the state. Three thou
sand cotton demonstrators in 60 coun~
ties with acreage planted 10000, pro
duced $50 pounds seed cotton Or
three times the average of the state.
Many more instances might be re-
counted, but these figures and Ithe
thousands of Georgia farmers who
have actually tried out the modern
methods taught by the College, make
it necessary to so no further.

METHODIST BARRACKS
HOLD BIG MEETING.
Auditorium Crowded Sunday
To Hear Add -es5 OF
Mr.. 2, arce.

1t seems almost useless to write
anything about the big meeting at
The auditorium Sunday morning be-
cause it seemed that every man in
Marietta was there, and they surely
i0ld their families about it.
The big room had been filled with
"a many chairs as could be seated.
Il was held under the auspices Of the
siethodist church Baraca Class and
s7as presided over by Mrs. w. r.,
Turner The music was led by Prof
gXcell.
efal Secretary of the International
sunday School Association was the
speaker and the only fault with his
.alk was that he stopped too soon.
That is he stopped too soon for the
audience in the auditorium but not
until word had come from the Meth
f.1ist church that the services there
we're being delayed. He made a
strong appeal to the men to make
Rose study of the bible and to lead
christian lives. He pleaded for a
hristian life and not a death bed
repentance as the best method of
taaching heaven and made a strong
Impression upon his hearers 1t
certainly would be fine if Mr.. Pcarce
could be persuaded to come back and
make a series Of talks some time be-
eause he has a way of saying things
slain, without oratorical effect but
still in a strongly convincing manner
mat enthuses instead OF firing as is
the case with SO many speakers.
The meeting will be long remem-
cered and return Of Mr. Pcarce will
he hoped for by all those who heard
him.

rests conducted at the College
farm show that one ear of corn
the best looking-produced at the rate
OF 40 bushels to the acre. Another ear
of the same variety, not so fine look
ing, produced at the rate of IA bush
els to the acre. In another test of
two ears of the same variety differ
ence OF from 81 to 20 bushels to an
acre was produced.
The same number of grains in the
same number of hills and cultivation
under like conditions were used in
these tests. There can be no doubt
about accuracy of the conclusions.

A COBB COUNTY BOY
WRITES OF WASHINGTON
Washington, ID. c.,
April 18th 1913.

Dear Boys:
| went out to Fort Meyer the other
night to see one of the military drills
and ii was better than a wild Yves,
show. 1t was one of the last drills
of the season. They had it in the
riding hall which is about half a
mile from the car line and is about
"a block long and half as wide and
the seat sare at end of the hall.
They had all kinds of riders. The
horses Jumped over places about ;
feet high and one of the horses Jump
ed over a table with all the soldiers
sitting around and the dishes on it.
Another tried to do the same thing
and went between two men and
knocked one of them head over heels
Another man fell off his horse on his
shoulder and tumbled about 6 feet
but it didn't hurt either of them
They had eight cannons in the
hall at the same time and all of
them going around at the same time
The last thing they had was all the
officers came riding in and did some
fancy riding and then started from
one end of the hall to the other
shooting in the air with their pistols.
) The other day l was up in the
/ Capitol grounds and l saw DR.. Mary
Walker, one of the oldest lady doe
tors in the world. She wears mems
clothes and silk hat and just as
she came into the Capitol there were
about 20 cameras clicking about her
as fast as they could go.
, The President came to the Cap
itol the other day to speak to the
Senators and Congressman and there
was such large crowd that you
couldn't get in ten feet of the door
and never inside. out the very next
day he came back Unexpectedly and
there wasn't hundred people there
to see him because he went to the
Presidents room that time.
| Will have 10 close now because
/ have TO so to lunch.
