Inc forthcoming Congressional
contest in the Eleventh District, al
ready apparently pretty much mixed,
has been further complicated bv the
rumored candidacy of former State
Senator ]. A. J. Henderson, of Ocilla.
This makes the list of entries now
read-Representative Walker, Sena-
tor Converse, Representative Ed
mondson. Judge Parker and former
Senator Henderson.
There is not one of these men who
isn't strong in his home county, and
surrounding territory. Each has had
considerable political experience. and
all have been successful in their va
r1ous undertakings to date.
With the Eleventh District mixed
between these five-and with more
candidates yet to come, all all prob
ablllty-there Is no sort of telling
what may happen on election day!
The Eleventh has been exception
ally well represented in Washington
Tor many years. William G. Brant-

more, and before him Henry G. Tur-

Secretary OF State Phil Cook calls
the attention of automobiles to the
fact that they must procure new
state licenses between January [
and March /, 1914, or become subject
to discipline by the department.
The new State automobile law goes
into effect then, and, while present
licenses, properly secured, hold cool
until March l, new ones, costing SIS
each, must be secured not later than
March l. Those licenses will be good
until March !, 1915, and may be Sc
cured any time after January /. but
not later than E-arch ! next year.
Automobile owners en- save them
selves and the Department of State a
great deal Of annoyance and trouble
by remembering the foregoing facts
and governing themselves accord

The calamity bowler says: What
about the lack OF lime in the soil?" DIR.
TAFT Butler, probably the best posted
man on southern agriculture, says. In
summing up most excellent editorial
on Lime in Southern Feeds" I'VE
have shown: U) That our soils are
not deficient in lime as regards the
plant food requirements of our crops:
CD that plants grown In the south
have as much ash as the same plants
grown elsewhere, and that the feed
crops of the south, especially the
legumes peculiar to the south, contain
as high a per cent of ash as the
feed crops of other sections; (3) that
typical southern rations are those
made up of typical southern feeds and
contain more ash than typical north
ern feeds. The conclusion is, there
fore, that while our animals fail to
get the mineral matter they need, 1t
is not because this material is de-
fcient in our feeds. but because our
animals do not get sufficient of our
feeds"
In the cotton belt. live stock farm
ing has been avoided mainly for two
reasons: D Because all-cotton farm
ing paid better until the soil became
poor; CD because Of the cattle tick
Now, millions of acres are too poor
TO grow cotton profitably, and we can
easily eradicate the cattle tick Since
the work of eradicating the tick was
inaugurated, nearly 100000 square
miles have been cleaned for all time;
this is an area over three times as
large as Alabama. The tick INJURIES
the hide, reduces the milk flow at
least ten per cent, makes it very diff
ficult to fatten cattle, prevents the in
PRODUCTION of good cattle to breed up
our native cattle, lowers the price of
our cattle on the markets and destroys
more than enough cattle every year
to pay for its eradication.
The invasion of the boil wcevil and
the consequent reduction of the profits
OF cotton growing is forcing many
farmers to grow crops which must OF
necessity be marketed through the
agency OF live stock and ii is the func-
ton or live stock on the farm to fur
nish market for the crops that are
grown, enabling the farmers to con-
vert grasses, forage crops, COW peas
and soy beans, and so on. into higher
priced finished products and to return
to the soil the plant food taken from

The mayor reviews the work of the
city administration during the last
two years. He points to the fact that
the city now has paved sidewalks, a
modern fire fighting apparatus. a beau.
tiful city park, Carnegie library,
in course of construction, an electrical
fire alarm system on the way, the
splendid enforcement of the health
laws under an efficient health officer,
and a splendid board OF health. The
mayor says that he does not claim
credit for all these things himself. but
that many of them were due TO the un.
wavering and never-failing support of
splendid board OF aldermen.

1t. The greatest need of the farmers
OF the cotton belt at present is more
grass and more live stock, and those
who assist in eradicating the cattle
tick and in otherwise helping to
create conditions that will enable
farmers to grow two good animals in
the place of one scrub is surely as
great a benefactor as those who cause
two blades OF grass to grow where
only one grew before.
Live stock should certainly be givcu
prominent place in the agricultural
development of the cotton belt Next
to having good and intelligent people
in country. good live stock Is
probably of the most Importance. This
being true, every state in the cotton
belt should encourage better live
stock by eradicating the tick and by
teaching improved me hods of stock
breeding and raising.

CRy G. H ALEORnN

We have between the average and
the best in farming in the cotton belt
an attainable 1000 per cent. This diff.
ference Of 1000 per cent. against the
average farmer is due wholly to con
ditions which he can easily control
with the necessary knowledge Every
corporation and business man interest
ed in the welfare OF the country should
Join forces with the United States de-
partment of agriculture. AGRICULTURAL
colleges, experiment stations, state de-
partments OF agriculture and other
forces and conduct great educational
campaigns until the foolish and Grim
inal waste that is going on every year
by reason of unscientific methods of
farming is n thing OF the past.
Our farmers can grow easily twice
the average yield of our staple crops
This increase would pour many mil
lions OF dollars annually into our
industrial channels. Such an addi-
tion could not be made without touch
ing every corporation. every banker.
every storekeeper. every doctor. every
lawyer, every editor and. in fact. every
person In the country.
Many OF the great industrial corpo-
rations OF the country have already
joined forces with national and state
institutions and are helping the farm
ers to larger production and to larger
life. and are thereby contributing to
the prosperity and uplift of the whole
people. Some people may attribute
this to pure selfishness. but from out
of that seltlshness will evolve better
condition among the farmers, greater
comforts in living. and more luxuries
of life and better opportunities for the
farmers to educate their sons and
daughters-thus the presumed selfish
ness contains within it a resulting
philanthropy.

we cannot quote it too often: No

no manure. no crop" Holland is al
most entirely a grass and stock coun-

age of $500 per acre. These people
have found that they can make more
out of land from grasses and live
stock than they can by cul,ivating it.
Unnumbered acres of hill land in
the cotton belt are making less than
one-third bale of cotton per acre, and
at the same time making poverty for
those tilling them. The cost of com
