The classes in the Y. NJ c. A. Insti-
tute are rapidly filing to capacity.
Last evening class in mathematics
started with an enrolment of twenty
two, with many more on the list to
enter later. II has been found neces-
sary to divide the class since it is too
large to be handled in one group.
J. B. Thorpe, superintendent of the
chemical and metallurigical depart
ments of the Illinois Steel Works. and
Mr.. Crew, assistant. started class in
metaflurgy last evening in the chem
ical laboratory of the Y. NJ. C. A. This
class will be pushed forward rapidly
since 1t is the wish of the authorities
in the mills to get men ready for met
al1urgical work there. The class will
be composed about fifteen men who
viii meet twice each week. 1t will be
necessary for students wishing this
work to report at once since no other
class Will he started until another year.
The day commercial school under the
direction of Prof. o. K. Evenson is do
ing splendidly. The enrolment is
growing and the work is of a character
to warrant pupils taking it up. The
commercial night classes have increased
in number to the extent that Mr.. Even
son is on duty every night in the week
One class of men meet at eight o'clock
| in the morning for special work. These
men are the night shift at the mills
and they stop on their way home from
| work. This is the spirit that makes
| strong men and successful men.
| The mechanical engineering classes
under the direction of r. A Travers
| have grown beyond the capacity of the
| drafting rooms. Another large room
| is now being bitted up to take care of
| the men VINO wish to get the work
Another order for drafting desks has
| gone to the factory--the second of the
kind since the school opened in Sep
TENDER. These men get instruction in
| elementary and advanced drafting and
also In mathematics to and including
calculus. The course has been worked
| out in detail so that the instruction is
| of a. character to inspire confidence and
| enthusiasm.
/ The architectural classes under the
instruction of A. f. Wickes have open
ed with vim and enrolment that be-
speak a fine year. A number of last
years students are back again ready

TINES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis. Ind, Oct although
he was up in the air for several days
and afraid that he would be compelled
to discharge five Democratic janitors
from the state house mopolihical and
serubbage forces because of lack of
funds. Tom Colbert. custodian of the
big building has at last discovered that
kindly Democratic Legislature last
winter made ample provision for keep
ing all OF the nineteen faithful jani-
tors on the pay roll for the next year
at least This has shed a CLEAN OF joy
in the hearts of the overwarked jani-
tors. for there is a hard winter COM
ing on and the wolf will be yelping
at their door.
Colbert has had nineteen janitors at
work in the state house ever since he
took charge under the Marshall admin
istration. This is regarded as a SUM-
cient force to keep the state house
| looking like the chief public building
| IN Spotless Town. The jobs are poll
tical. and everybody knows how hard
| most men work in political jbos.
The Democratic legislature last win
| ter thought the Democratic janitors in
| the state house were underpaid- 1t was
recognized the Democratic legislature
| that the Democrats ianitors were hard
worked, and for this they should be
better paid. Besides, all of the janitors
are good workers in the precincts in
campaign season,
| So the legislature increased the pay
! of the janitors to s65 a month each. But
in making up the appropriation bill
| somebody slipped a cog. for the bill
| carried only sufficient money to pay IA
janitors at the sos rate. This discrep-
ancy only came to light recently, and
| when 1t was discovered there was con-
| sternation among the janitorial force.
Five of them had to quit-that was
sure. and the question was what four
| should be thrown out in the cold un-
feeling world and no longer bep errnit-
ted to enjoy the fruits of all of their
| years OF hard labor In the precincts.
So serious did the prospect become
and so imminent was the disaster, that
one janitor resigned and hunted a
real job. But the other four that were
| elected for the axe remained at work,
and now, they are going to stick for
at leask another year.
In perusing the appropriation act
passed by the Legislature the welcome
discovery was made that the legisla-
ture had appropriated the sum OF
$4,000 to pay for cleaning the marble
and Bedford stone on the inside of the

BY STAFF OF GA STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
Georgia Farmers Heavy Losers
By Wrong Use OF Fertilizers
President Andrew M. SouIe.

"What kind of fertilizer must I
use?" is the ever-increasing cry of
the Georgia farmers The College
is receiving a flood of such inquiries,
but the College cannot undertake to
make soil analyses for individual cit
liens, the appropriation for soil sur
vey provides only that a general sur
vey of types of soil be made and that
experiments be conducted Oh these
various types. We have studied the
qualities of a number of the type
soils and have test plats now estab
lished on some fourteen or fifteen
acres scattered throughout the state.
From these test plats We are secur-
ing data that will be of great value
to the farmers of Georgia. We hope
to obtain an increased appropriation
for this kind of work and extend
the scope of the survey very materi-
ally.

BREED TESTS FOR
BEEF IN GEORGIA.
M. p. Jarnagin, Professor Animal
Husbandry.

Query-What is the College of Ag-
riculture doing to demonstrate the
value of crossing pure bred sires with
the common Georgia COW?
Some very interesting experiments
have been conducted by mating ordi-
nary cows with a pure bred Hereford
bull with remarkable results within
a generation, the first progeny being
a good beef producing animal, and the
second still better.
Plans have been worked out where
by the tests will be enlarged to four
leading breeds, the Hereford, Angus,
Short Horn and Red Polls. The CO.
operation of the Bureau of Animal
Industry of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has been obtain
ed. which will greatly assist in the
work. Sixty COWS will be bred to
the four leading types of bulls and
the evolution of the Georgia piny
woods type into better beef producing
types viii be thoroughly demonstrate
ed. The experiments will. however,
only show what can be done in the
absence of the cattle tick.
The leader-enterprise. [volume] (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1912-1915, 1913-02-21

In every possible way at its con-
mand, the College is ready to tell the
farmers of Georgia wherein their
soils are deficient and what formula
of fertilizer to apply to secure the
best crop yields. Until the farmers
of Georgia know what their soils COZ
tain naturally, and what form OF Ter
tilizer to use to supply existing de-
ficiency, they will continue to spend
much money inadvisedly and without
securing the results to which they are
entitled.
Ordinarily it is hardly necessary
to more than determine the nitrogen,
phosphorus, potash, lime and the
acidity of the soil. Private analysis
by a competent chemist costs from
$40 to SIS depending upon the num-
her of clements determined in CIV
en- soil

THE BUZZARD AND
OTHER DISEASE CARRIERS
w. M. Burson, Prof. Vet. Science.

W. WIs VI NSh' OS'N''S~'
The laws of Georgia require that
carcasses Of animals dying OF con-
tagious diseases should be buried not
less than four feet deep or be burned.
A failure is punishable as misdemean-
or.
Buzzards, stray dogs, o'possums'
rats etc, having access to disease
bearing carcasses carry infective ma
terials over wide territory. Among
the diseases that may be spread byI
these are anthrax, affecting farm ami
mails and people: cholera of swine;
cholera of fowls, CHAMBERS of horses
and people; blackleg of cattle; tuber-
culosis of cattle, Of hogs, of fowls
and of people; rabies or hydrophobiaI
of all animals and people, and many
other diseases of lesser importance.
The destruction of the buzzard, the
elimination of the stray dog and the
proper disposal of carcasses will go
far toward improving live stock con-
ditions and make the state more pros
porous. We do not need the buzzard
nor the stray dog in either town or
country Proper sanitary laws would
mean the elimination of both.

ORCHARD CULTIVATION.

T. n. Mediation, Prof. Horticulture
Query-Recommend form of or
chard cultivation.
All orchards well cared for are
plowed from to 10 inches as early
in the spring as possible and are
then cultivated every ten days or
two weeks, or after every rain, by
use of the spring tooth harrow or
similar cultivator, until about the
first of August when a cover crop
is sown.
