Some of the more important work
accomplished in the Department Of
Agronomy of the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture may be summarize
ed briefly. Fertilizer plats have been
esta7 Ghed in fourteen counties on
sixteeAn types of soil, the purpose of
which is to determine the fertilizer
needs and the system of crop rotation
to use. Corn selection work is in prog

five counties. Crop improvement as
sociations have been organized in five
counties.
Wheat tests carried on for four
years at the College farm show an
average to date of 24.9 bushels Full
caster wheat per acre, 25.6 bushels
Blue Stem, 26.4 Georgia Red. The
winter oats tests average as follows:

The average of four year tests of

WOULD ABOLISH ALL
GRADE CROSSINGS NOW
Cheney Heads Movement in
Assembly

Atlanta, Ga, June 30.-An aggressive
movement to abolish railroad grade
crossings in Georgia has been in augu-
rated in the present legislature.
1t will be backed vigorously by a
number of the strong men of the
house, headed by Representative John
P. Cheney, of Cobb, a legislator If
force and large experience.
Mr. Cheney, said to be slated for
the Craftsmanship of the Western and
Atlantic railroad committee, is per-
haps the best posted man in the
house on matters pertaining to rail-
roads, and the fact that he is to ia
Their the movement for the abolition
OF grade crossings has been accepted
by the house membership as meaning
that the movement has a good chance
of being carried to a successful con-
clusion.
The gentleman from Cobb will en-
deavor to divide the cost of providing
underpasses and overpasses, where
they may be deemed necessary, equ.-
tably and fairly between the roads
and the counties or municipalities
wherein the dangerous crossings are
located, and it will be- the purpose of
the measure to inaugurate the co.,
structive work gradually and within
the bounds of reason, in so far as the
cost of the same is concerned.
1t is realized that the matter OF
putting in underpasses and overpasses
likely will prove to be very expensive
but Representative Cheney thinks it
will be a paying proposition not only
in the saving of human lives, but III
the saving of real money, for both
parties to the work.
1t will be left to the railroad COM
mission to designate such crossings
as are rated dangerous, and for it to
say further upon what terms the dan,
gerous situations shall be relieved.
Mr. Cheney believes that the rail
roads, when they understand the fuIl
import of the proposed measure, not
only will not fight it, but may be de-
pended upon to cooperate in its en-
actment. And, whether that is so 0"
not, the gentleman from Cobb ey
presses himself as determined to push
the matter to a conclusion before the
present legislature.

While Solicitor Dorsey has int

has never made any statement relative
to the value of the negro's story in a

1t has been found that 1000 pounds
of lime increased the yield of COW
peas no pounds per acre. Alfalfa seed
inoculated and lined yielded 1.6S tons
per acre, not included nor lined slight
ly less than half a ton per acre.
In testing relative merits of floats
and acid phosphate, it was found that
374 bushels of corn were grown
where floats were used and 43.3 bush
els where acid phosphate was used.
These are results of three years tests.
The results of three years tests on
nitrogen carriers on corn are as fol-
lows: No fertilizer 3S bushels, nitrate
of soda SO, sulphate of amonia 40 bush
els, calcium cynamid so bushels, cot
ton seed meal 81 bushels, dried blood
81 bushels.
Influence of high and low nitrogen
in complete fertilizers is shown as fol-
lows: No fertilizer, 81 bushels; $50
pounds acid phosphate 80 bushels; $50
pounds phosphate and 140 pounds
muriate of potash, 26 bushels; 1000
pounds of 22-8, 81, AZ bushels; 1000
