What of the South?

While we are sending shiploads
of Christmas presents to the or
phaned children of Europe, and
contributing millions for the
Outstanding of heather lands,
let US consider matters a little
nearer home.
A great section of our own
country is face to face with the
possibility of financial ruin. A
gallant people are making a he
roic stand in the face of over
whelming odds.
The south is not able to market
its cotton crop because of the war.
And for its ready cash it depends
largely upon that crop. And
without cash it will be ruined.
There are many millions of dol
lars in the north waiting for piof-
liable investment.
What better could the north do
than to aid the south by buying
its cotton and holding it until
fhe markets of the world are
again opened?
1t would be a Legitimate invest
ment, doubtless a profitable one,
and a brotherly action BY a pros
porous section of the country in
aid of another section in distress.
1t is not charity. The south
does not want that. It's pride
would not consent.
But it would be good business
sense. And the south would
welcome that.
We of America should think

Best Cough MedE
cine for Children.

Three years ago when I was
living in Pittsburg one of my
children had a hard cold and
coughed dreadfully. Upon the
advice of druggist 1 purchased
a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and it benefited him at
once. l find it the best cough
medicine for children because it
is pleasant to take. They do not
object to taking it." writes Mrs.
Lafayette Tuck, Homer City, Pa.
This remedy contains no opium
or other narcotic, and may be
given to a child as confidently as
an adult. Sold by all dealers.

yard in the spring or that found
in little heaps in the field is on
ly about half as good for plant
food as the same manure would
have been had it been pitched on
a spreader from the stable and
scattered over the land as soon as
the load was completed.
Next to spreading it fresh, the
important thing is to spread it
finely pulverized and to spread it
evenly. This must be done with
a mechanical pulverizer, because
the hand that yields the fork
from the wagon top can not do
no more than scatter it in chunks.
So important is the manner of
spreading manure essential to its
preservation that the University
of Wisconsin in Bulletin No. 221
claims that it is advisable to APP
ply the manure to a field as soon
as it is made. Even winter
spreading is worth while.
It is equally vehement in re-
gard to pulverization. ITO make
itself worth while, manure must
come in contact with the roots of
the growing plants. To do this
it must be thoroughly pulverized
and evenly spread. The practice
of applying the manure directly
after blowing, and thoroughly
Incorporating it with the soil by
the use of a disc harrow or culti-
vator is a good oue."
Handling it by hand in the
farm wagon and handling it with
a spreader is another story. The
amount of labor saved is one
chapter of this story, the amount
of money saved is another chap
ter, and the increased bouutiful'
ness of the crops is a third.
Everywhere it is acknowledged
that the spreader is a divident-
paying investment, and il would
seem that with taxes to be paid,
and other expenses coming along
inevitably, that greater care
would be taken to preserve in its
entirely the full value of the
barnyard refuse.

Saving the
| Barnyard Profit.
Manure Wasted Each Year Would
More Than Pay Farmers
Taxes.


we cannot afford to ignore that
part which we do understand"
For instance, it is only lately
that we have come to appreciate
what soil is made Of and how
grains and plants manage to live
and grow. We know now that
we must feed the roots OF grow
ing crops just as we feed grow
ing calves, and with about as
much care.
Without going deeply into
chemistry of this food supply, we
have learned that the plant bill
of fare consists mainly of three
things, namely: Nitrogen, phoS-
phoric acid and potash. Where
these foods are easily available,
we have good crops; where they
are absent, or locked up in dry,
heavy earth, the plants Starve.
Experience has taught us fur
Their that we can set the table,
from which the plants will get
their sustenance, in two ways
either by buying their food BY
the pound or by saving for them
our barnyard manure. Modern
chemistry has proved that for
this purpose a half ton of fresh
horse manure contains FIVE
pounds of nitrogen, three and a
half pounds of phosphoric acid;
and a similar amount of COW
manure contains three pounds Of
nitrogen and two and a half
pounds of phosphoric acid. This
includes both the liquid and the
solid manures. In fact, the
liquid manure is the most impor-
tant of the two. Great care
should be taken so that the main
part of it can be savsd.
The easier the farmer makes
it for his growing plants to gath
er this food, the better crops he
can promise himself. He fattens
his wheat crops, and his other
crops, just as surely as he fat
tens his steers. If, ia thus fat
teuing his corn fields, he goes to
the store and buys nitrates at IS
cents per pound, and phosphOric
acid and potash both at S cents
per pound, he will find that the
horse manure in his own barn
yard on this basis, if properly
conserved and properly spread, is
worth $2.21 per ton; his COW
manure, $2.02 per ton; and his
pig manure 1929 per ton.
1t seems, thus, that saving the
product of the stable lowers the
high cost of plant living consid-
erably, when we consider that
twenty 1,000-pound cows will
give one hundred and forty.six
tons of manure in six months.
To be strictly accurate in the
cash value of a product, gener.
ally considered a little better
than worthless, for every 1000
pounds weight of stock, whether
horse, COW, or swine, the manure
each year is worth from a horse
$27.74, from a cow $29.27, and
from that weight of hogs $4,000.
That is, however, if it is saved
right and used right. 1t has
been estimated that the way
manure is handled by the farmers
of this country that enough is
wasted each year to pay the tax
es of all the farm lands in the
United States.
There are two main leaks or
avenues Of dissipation in connec-
ton with this food supply of
plants-frst, at the stable, and
second in the field. Just as one
can ruin an otherwise good hay
crop-by not handling it right, so
one can damage a good manure
crop.
Manure is at its best when
