CLAIMS NAVY NEEDS MEN
Rear Admiral Blue Tells Committee
Recruits are Essential.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The need of
24O additional officers and about 1900
men to fully equip all American war
ships of actual military value was ex-
planned today to the house naval af-
fairs committee by rear admiral Blue,
chief of the navigation bureau of the
| navy department. Admiral Blue eX-
planned the naval appropriation bill
now being shaped by the committee.
Referring to the fact that the de-
partment was still purchasing some of
its photographic charts from the Brit
ish government, the admiral said the
United States was issuing more and
more such charts each year, and that
ultimately photographic charting by
the United States government would
be as complete as that of any other
Nation
Rear Admiral Stanford, chief of the
bureau of yards and docks, recon-
mended the $3,OOO,OOO estimate for
new dry docks. All these ships of the
navy now under construction are to
use fuel oil, and it is estimated that
this year 30,OOO,OOO gallons will be
used.
The estimates of the navy exceed
last years total of $145,OOO,OO0 by
about S1,OOO,OOO.

HEAVY SOIL EROSION
!: IN THE SOUTH
!: :: ;: y :: {. {. :: :: :: :: :: :: .: :: :,

Washington, d. c., Dec 3.-The fol.
lowing statement regarding soil ero-
sion in the south is taken from the an
nual report of the bureau of soils,
U, S. department of agriculture:
In study of soil erosion in the
south, it has been found that large
areas are lost to agriculture annually
through erosion. In some states vast
areas, amounting to as much as so
per cent of the arabic land of these
sections, have been abandoned. The
character of the erosion varies with
the type of soil Usually, on the
heavy clay soils, sheet" or surface
erosion is found. With increasing
proportion of sand in the soil the
erosion changes to the "snoestring"
type, then to the gully type with
rounded edges, and finally to the gull
lies with caying sides. The most rapid
erosion seems to occur in soils having
layer of silt or clay at the surface
and substratum of sand. This con-
dition usually leads to erosion of the
deep gully type, which is difficult to
check and Improbable to reclaim.
All methods for prevention and CON
troll are based either on increasing
the capacity for absorbing the water as
it falls, or on decreasing the velocity
Of the run-off A new method in use
in one locality is the construction of
what are known as "christophers," the
distinctive feature of this plan lying in
the manner of disposing of storm
waters. Across an incipient gully is
built a dam, though which is passed
sewer pipe connected with an up
right pipe on the upper side of the
dam Water fills the valley until
it reaches the top of the upright pipe.
and then flows down this pipe into
the next field. The water left standing
below the mouth of the upright pipe
is gradually removed by a tile train.
1t is also demonstrated in the south
that other crops must be grown than
those requiring clean culture, as do
cotton, corn, and tobacco.

you will use the same care and abili-
ty, carefully selecting your seed and
sowing about 20 pounds to the acre,
you will get results. Do not let any
stock on it for the first year, never let
any live stock on it at any time eX-
cept hogs, and their noses should be
ringed if you expect the best results
as hay crop. Then this crop can be
cut at least four times each year and
sometimes oftener. You will find that
it will pay better than any other farm
crop and at the same time the land
will be growing richer instead of poor
er.

A great many people seem to think
that there is a mystery about the grow
ing OF alfalfa, these people of course
are mistaken as there is not the slight
est mystery about its growing in Car
ter county, it is as easy to grow as
any other crop when properly handled
and is far more remuneratiye than
any Of them. | have had considerable
experience with alfalfa having been in

crop about fifteen years ago on valley
black land, but not what is known as
BLACK Waxey." | had read in farm
papers the discourses of learned writ
ers and the different methods of plant
ing, and became deeply interested in
the subject. Some advised planting
in the fall and some in spring, some
with a nurse" crop, others with
out, some stating that it was abso-
lutely necessary that the ground be
broken six months or longer before
planting, and then re-broke and har-
rowed, rolled and fixed like a garden
bed, all this being absolutely essen
tial to success. Others advised that on
ly certain kinds of land would sue
cessfully grow it, and various other
theories advanced by desk farmers

some city sky scraper, had me for
time guessing as to which was the
best method to pursue. About the
only thing they were all agreed upon
was that it was a great crop and a
money getter. | might add in passing
that the very last of their mighty
opinions that | agreed with was the
latter, and now l am going to tell in
my own way the manner pursued by
me in growing alfalfa.
The most successful way l have
found in growing this great crop has
been spring sowing with oats as a
nurse" crop. l have tried sowing
in the fall alone after breaking and
re-breaking, packing, etc, spending
more time and money than for any 9th

it proved to be a perfect failure. The
insects would get it, hot wave would
come and dry it up before it was
rooted, or it would be frozen out by
the cold of winter So finally reverted
to my original planting in the spring
as | had my initial crop, and / firmly
believe this to be the best season of
all for planting in Carter county.
In speaking of oats as nurse"
crop, l do not wish to infer that 1t
will not grow when planted in the
spring without this oat crop, but
believe that it is better to do so. /
have planted it in patches from Z to
10 acres up TO 250 acres and | have
always found it to be a sure crop,
The greatest trouble of planting alfalfa
alone in the spring is the danger of
freezing, and if it survives that, the
crab" grass is liable to smother it
out later. | think the latter is the
greatest menace to the growing of al
falfa in this section.
When sowing with oats or when
planting with any other crop, the bet
ter the land is prepared, the better
results will be obtained. | have sown
oats on the bare ground after cleaning
it OF stalks, plowed them under with
, n1p N |
inches deep,then sown the alfalfa seed
on top and narrowed in not less than
twice and preferably four times, and
then, if the ground is very dry and |
there is no prospects of an early rain,
it might be well to roll the land as it |
might have a tendency to hold the |
moisture and probably produce bet
ter stand. However | have never
found it necessary to do this as | do
not want to plant anything unless
think | have sufficient moisture in the
ground to insure a stand. ! have also
sown it with a drill after the ground
was broken in the spring, having .
drill with an attachment for sowing
alfalfa separate from the oats, | have
usually preceded this with a thorough
and then cross-harrowing
after seeding.
After the seed sprouts and begins

alfalfa will grow right along with the
oats, and if the land is rich and the
season warm, will often outgrow them
