two-thirds completed This estimate
is based upon the total amount OF
work necessary in the complete pre-
,paration of the exposition. Every
department Of the exposition is pro-
nounced by executives familiar with
the organization of universal eXposi-
tions to be further advanced than
we're those of any Of the greatest eX-
positions held in America at a similar
preeXposition period. Twenty-seven
of the worlds nations have accepted
the invitation conveyed through the
department Of State; this record is
unprecedented at a time one year
and one-half before the opening. Thir-
| ty-fve States have selected sites for
State pavilions. Almost seven thou
sand applications for concession pri-
vileges nave been received. The ap-
plications for exhibit space would,
if all were granted, exhaust the ell
tire exhibit area
Construction is far advanced. The
most difficult part in exposition build
ing is past. An immense amount of
preparatory work has been accom-
plished. Ten of the fourteen huge eX-
hibit palaces are now under construc-
ton. One building, the service build
ing, is completed. Contracts for
three additional buildings will be let
within a short period.
All buildings are being built under
time contracts with definite limits for
their completion. A number of the
most noted sculptors in America nave
advanced far in the preparation of
the sculptural models to be repro
duced upon the exposition grounds
Under the direction of Mr.. A Stirling
Calder some of the most important
models are being enlarged in the
sculptural warehouses.
! "A phase of the exposition in which
it will stand alone among all great
/ expositions OF America and Europe
will be found in its representation OF
the South and Central American re-
publics. These nations will partici-
pate upon a great scale.
More than 40 great congresses and
conventions, many of them Of interna-
tional interest and Importance, have
voted to meet in San Francisco IN
1915. This number will undoubted-
Iy be greatly augmented. Many con-
ventions will not take final action un-
til 1914 owing to usual custom tc
choose the annual meeting place but
one year in advance of the time OF
meeting. To accommodate these great
bodies, which will bring together
many of the worlds most brilliant
minds the exposition company voted
s1,OO0,OOO for an auditorium at the
civic center. First work upon this
building has started.
About $500 men are now employed
upon the exposition grounds. The
esplanade, to lie before the main ex-
hibit palaces has been sown to grass,
the freight ferry slip at the eastern
end of the esplanade is completed
and work on the passenger ferry slip
is under way; the yatch harbor at the
opposite end of the esplanade is
practically finished; a considerable
portion of the grounds is under rail
way track and within a short period
cargoes may be unloaded at the
freight ferry slips and transported by
rail to any part of the exposition
grounds. The exposition company
operates it's own railway.

GRASS DEMONSTRATIONS
Special Agent Duncan Submits Sug-
gestiOns for Conducting Them.

The accompanying suggestions, for
grass demonstrations, are offered to
help the farmer to establish better
hay, and pasture meadows. 1t is be-
ing recognized, that one of the prime
needs of the South is general in
terest in live stock, and to successful
ly bring this about more and better
feedstuffs must be provided. Suffi-
cient tests have been made, to es-
tablish the fact that many cultivated
grasses, and clovers, will succeed IN
the Southern States when properly
treated.
Soil fertility is the most important
question to all farmers. To solve it
satisfactorily, crop rotation, grow
ing of the legumes, and raising of
live stock must be practiced.
Let every farmer, begin immediate
ly to ascertain what is best along
this line for his own condition, and
if l can aid you, don't hesitate to call
on me.
See me if you need ground lime
stone for your legumes, as 1 have
very satisfactory prices.

Suggestions for Conducting Grass De-
mOnstratiOns
The grass demonstration conduct
ed under the supervision of the Far
mers' Cooperative Demonstration
agents in certain counties in the Pied
moat section of North and South
Carolina have proven successful be-
yond expectations. Since it has been
demonstrated on numerous farms
that grasses and clovers can be
grown for meadows and pastures with
ease and profit, we wish to extend
and encourage the work to the ex-
tent that it will become a part of the
cropping system of every farm. To
aid in further promoting interest
along this line, the Farmers Co.
operative Demonstration agents will
furnish all information as to the
selection of land, its preparation,
seeding and handling the crop on
these demonstrations. They will
supervise the operations throughout
and will see that artificial inoculat-
ing material is furnished where soil
from an inoculated field cannot be
obtained.
The demonstration is to furnish
suitable land in a place easy of access
to the public view. He is to furnish
at least one ton of good agricultural
line, and from 300 to 500 pounds of
acid phosphate per acre. The de-
demonstrator will be required to keep
an accurate account of the cost Of
preparation, seeding, fertilizer, lime,
and the handling of the hay crop.
The hay is to belong to the demon
strator and he will furnish the local
agent with the weights of the cured
nay, or in case the crop cannot be
weighed, give as accurate an esti-
mate as possible.
The selection Of the land is most
important. A loan soil full Of humus
and a good clay subsoil is always
best.
The thorough preparation of the
land is a prime necessity. 1t should
be plowed not less than inches deep
a month before planting time. The
plowing should be followed by har-
row, roller or drag to put in perfect
condition for planting. The ideal con-
dition will be found where good
rain has followed the preparation and
settled the soil. The harrow can be
run after the rain to procure a suit
able seed bed upon which the seed
should be sown broadcast and COW
cred with light harrow or weeder.
In case there is not an abundance Of
moisture, light roller may follow
the seeding to firm the seed been and
insure termination.
The seed mixture recommended
and which gave splendid results in
the section mentioned, was as fol-
lows:
Red clover, ten pounds.
Orchard grass, one-half busnel
Tall meadow oat grass, one-half
bushel
italian rye grass, one-half bushel.
Timothy, ten pounds.
The time for seeding is from Sep
tember 10th to October 10th. With
favorable conditions the earlier date
is preferable.
The use of lime is absolutely es-
sential to success. A ton of burnt
lime or two tons Of finely ground
limestone should be used. If burnt
lime is used it is necessary that it
be slaked, either by the addition of
water or thrown out in small piles

Old Slavery Relic
Found in Atlanta

Atlanta, March ia remark
able relic of slavery times was
brought to light among some old
Fulton county court house papers
this week by the finding of a bill
of sale for three negro women,
dated Atlanta, Ca, August Fl.
1862. The bill of sale is in the
form of a modern bank check or
receipt, printed crosswise at the
end of it is the name of the firm,
"Clark & Grub, Negro Brokers, :"
ST, 900 in figures is written in the
top of the bill, and the body of it
reads as follows:
Received of Chas. Burman.
Sixteen hundred dollars, being
in full for the purchase of three
negro slaves, named Susan, 80
years old. Peggy, 26 years old,
and Sarah, aged 4; the right and
title of said slaves we warrant
and defend against the claims of
all persons whatsoever; and like
wise warrant them sound and
healthy. AS witness our hand
and seal. (Signed) T. L. & G.
M. Scott.
The form and substance of this
bill of sale is one of the most in
teresting records of the kind that
Georgia possesses.

Splendid Prizes
For The Boys Corn
Club For 1913,
To Be Offered by
The A. B. &. A. r. r

Last year this Company gave
the boys in each County making
the largest yield of corn per acre
a beautiful illustrated book en-
titled chilling the Soil for Profit
and Pleasure; also twenty select
ed Bulletins issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
dealing with the most useful phases
of farming. The boys were high
" pleased with these prizes as
evidenced by their acknowledge
ments by letter received from a
majority of the boys to whom the
books were given.
In line with the policy of en-
couraging agricultural and other
development in our territory IN
every way, our management have
decided to award the following
prizes to the Boys Corn Clubs
along the Atlaeta, Birmingham &
Atlantic Railroad:
