Let The Boy Raise A Pure Bred Pig
Andrew NJ Soule, President Georgia State College of
Agriculture.

Why not let the boy join the pig
club movement? Any boy between
the ages of 10 and Is may join. Aside
from the interest the boy will take
IN raising the pig, the influence of
proprietorship and value of the con-
structive work upon his young life,
he will find good deal of financial
encouragement. He may obtain a
scholarship to the short course given
for boys and girls prize winners, at
the State College of Agriculture,
Where he will get an outlook and in
spiration that may mean great things
for him.
The prizes he may win at the coun-
ty and state fairs will not only amount
to considerable sum, but the repu-
tatlon gained for the animal, if a
breeding animal is being used, will
make possible fancy prices for the lit
tiers. In fact, the boy may get his
start In life as the result of joining
the pig club.
To join a pig club and carry out its
provisions means that he must keep

Protecting Orchards
Against Light FrOsts
T. H. Mediation, 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 I'D to
prevent too rapid thawing out of froz-
en- flowers.
AS rule, when the temperature is
80 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 oc.
casionally with great profit.

Boys Profit On
Three Acres, $2S5.4S
J. Phil Campbell, State Agent In
Charge of Club Work, Col
Iege OF Agriculture

Maurice Crowder, OF Walker coun.
ty, corn club boy, has demonstrated
that he can make profit of $2S5.49
on three acres in one season. His
crops were corn, cotton, oats and soy
beans. On the acre devoted to corn
he raised 1855 bushels at a profit of
$3.50. His cotton acre produced g.
240 pounds of cotton, from which he
made profit of 1860. The acre de-
voted to oats produced 131 IA bushels
at 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 profit of $85.41. The total
profit from the four crops on three
acres was therefore $2S5.49.
Soy beans, it will be seen, brought
greater returns than any other crop.
This crop and the oats preceding
made total profit from one acre
$16S.31. Thus it will be seen that
the corn club boys are capable of
growing other crops and a larger acre
age and make success.

TO CARE FOR SURPLUS
Substitute for Huffman Treasury
Fund Bill Prepared in Senate.

A substitute for the Huffman bill
providing for the disposition of sur
plus state funds by placing it in banks
which are already state repositories
has been prepared by the author of
the original bill to meet objections
raised to that measure when taken up
by the senate committee of the whole
last week. The bill is to provide for
placing on interest the occasional sur
plus which at present is to be found
in the state treasury about twice each
year when heavy remfttances are be-
ing made on state taxes and on bond
payments.
For several weeks each winter and
summer the accumulation of state
money is greater than the amounts
for which contracts have been made
with Kansas banks, which agree to
pay interest on balances up to certain
amounts. depositing bonds for guar
antee. This surplus can not now le-
gally be placed anywhere and some
times lies in the state treasury idle.
Huffman's substitute DILL will provide
for its deposit with banks which are
already repositories. provided they
pay interest az as high a rate as the
lowest being paid by any of the then
regular repositories. The original bill
was objected to because it did not
specify what interest,", il any, should
be paid by the banks to which the
surplus funds should be entrusted.

THAT "JITNEY" BILL.
Special Order for Kansas Railroad in
House Today.

The 'jitney' railroad bill is under
consideration in the house this after
noon under special order. The
measure provides a passenger fare of
five cents a mile, affecting only the
Colorado, Kansas & Oklahoma rail-
road, which operates a train service
between WinOna and Scott City.
A number of western Kansas rep
resentatives are favorable to the bill,
which will enable the road to meet at
least a portion of it's present operat-
Ing losses, as shown at a recent hear
ing before the railroad committee The
bill affects only railroads operating
not more than SIS miles of road and
the Scott City-Winona line is the only
road in Kansas affected by the pro-
posed law. Several representatives
have announced their opposition to
the bill and it is probable that a lively
fight will mark the attempt to pass
the bill. Most of the western Kansas
house members are believed to be in
Favor of the passage of the law per-
mitting the collection of five cents a

London, Feb. 15.-In a statement
explanatory of the arrangement at

Britain was spending more money than

money that had ever been waged.
Great Britain, the chancellor of the
exchequer told the house of commons
could finance the war for five years

abroad. France was able to do so for
about two or three years. with some
thing to spare. Russia, he said, al
