The Pawnees held a big ghost

whether or not they would at

Protecting Orchards
Against Light FrOsts
7. II. McHatton, Professor OF Horti
culture, Georgia State College
OF Agriculture

An orchard can be. protected
against light frosts by the smudging
method. For this purpose there are
smudge pots or orchard heaters on
the market. Should these seem too
expensive, good substitute is afford
ed BY making smudge fires of wet
grass, straw, old leaves, prunings,
etc. About 100 small piles can be
placed to an acre, most of them be-
ing put on the side from which the
wind is blowing. The purpose, OF
course, is to keep the smoke over
the orchard. 1t is important that
the smudge fires be used early in the
morning before the sun comes up to
prevent too rapid thawing out of froz-
en- flowers.
AS rule, when the temperature Is
SO degrees, and it looks as if the tenn
perature is going lower, start the
smudge fires. 1t can not be expect
ed that this method will save from
severe freezes, but it can be used oe
casionally with great profit.

Boys Profit On
Three Acres, SECS 40
j. Phil Campbell, State Agent In
Charge Of Club Work, Col
lege OF Agriculture

Maurice Crowder, of Walker coun-
ty. a corn club boy, has demonstrated
that he can make profit Of $2S5.49
on three acres in one season. His
crops we're corn, cotton, oats and soy
beans. On the acre devoted to corn
he raised 1866 bushels at a preft Oh
$3.50. His cotton acre produced p
24O pounds of cotton, from which he
made a profit of $s6.S9 The acre de-
voted to oats produced 1s1 IA bushels
at a profit of $3.50 After the oats
had been gathered, the land was disc
ed and sown to soy beans. From this
crop he gathered 1854 pounds Of dry
hay at a profit of 1854. The total
profit from the four crops on three
acres was therefore $285.49.
Soy beans, it will be seen, brought
greater returns than any other crop

Cotton COntraband Need Not
Cause Fright, Says Smith.

AtlanGas aug. 20. In State
ment sent by Uuited States Senator.
Hoke Smith to Atlanta today on
the cotton situation, he declares
that cotton growers should not be
frightened INTO sacrificing their cot
ton by the announcement that Great
Britain has declared cotton con-
traband. a'
Senator Smith points ont that
ever since the first Of March Great
Britain has stopped cotton from GO
ing to the neutral ports of Northern
Europe, thereby cutting off Ameri-
can cotton from the markets Of Ger
many and Austria, and that making
it contrahand now only prevents
it from going into countries from
which us matter Of fact Great
Britain has already excluded it.
The action ofGreat Britain since
the first Of March," says Senator
Smith, has been shown to be II
legal, and in the language of the
letter Of the State Department, a
violation Of the sovereign rights pf
this country.
TO now place cotton on the con
traband list repubiates the action of
Great Britain when that govern
ment protested against Russia
making cotton contraband during
the Japanese war, and violates the
agreement made by Great Britain
in the conference at London on
February 26, 1909, when cotton
was placed upon free list.
with reference to this free lis,
the representatives of Great Britaia
who were members of that confer
ence, reported to the British goY-
eminent as follows:
we have secured the adoption
Of free list which will place it bf-
yond the power of belligerents ia
future to treat as contraband tbs
raw materials of some Of the most
important of our national indus.
tries And we trust that ths
free list now constituted will AFFORD
a welcome guarantee of security
to other branches Of British COM
merce.
THE first Item on this free lis
was raw cotton.
II the adoption Of the free liIt
placed it beyond the power of BET
ligerents to treat cotton as contrs-
band when Great Britain ob1ecteda
it equally prevented Great Bri&n
from treating it as csntraIand
when other parties to that agree
ment objected.
Great Britain can no more legal
