Forest Leaves Provide
FertiIKilg Material
J. q. Berry, Professor OF Forestry,
Georgia College OF Agriculture.

Many thousand of pounds of valua-
BILE fertilizer are destroyed each year
in Georgia, which, IL properly treated,
would rival barnyard manure. Large
quantities Of leaves are burned with
out any thought of their fertilizing
value. In all parts OF Europe the farm-
ers eagerly gather the leaves from
the forest. along the roads and from
the fields, often paying for the priv
lege. Leaves thus gathered are COM
posted usually near where they are
gathered. After q year or two the
comDOsted material is hanled to the
barnyard and mixed with the barR-
yard manure as a part of the compost
there.
AS rule leaves decompose mucn
more rapidly than the crude fiber OF
many agricultural crops, and contain
larger Quantities of nitrogen and pot
ash. The leaves may be raked to-
gether after rain into piles and over
them layer Of soil sufficiently thick
to hasten decomposition, may be plac-
ed. Quick lime sprinkled over the
leaves will help the decay.

ACUTE CATARRH OF Pigs
Or. w. M. 5urson, Veterinarian, Geor-
gia State College OF Agriculture.

Cold in the head often occurs in
pigs during cold, wet weather. The
disease is frequently seen among pigs
not properly sheltered, or which are
overcrowded in insanitary surround
ings Pigs that burrow under piles
of manure or stacks of forage are
most commonly affected. Exposure to
cold rains and draughts and dipping
during cold weather are other causes.
Symptoms. - Frequent sneezing,
dullness, inactivity, reduced appetite,
eyes watery and infiamed, cough, diff
ficult breathing, discharge from nos
trils.
Treatment. Correct the in
sanitary conditions, provide prop
er shelter, prevent overcrowding.
Feed on warm slop of bran
or shorts. Give laxative dose Of
epson salts or castor oil in the feed.
If nasal passages are clogged and
breathing is difficult, steam with hot
water to which turpentine has been
added.

VALUE OF A TRAINED
AGRICULTURIST
Andrew M. SouIe, President Georgia
State College Of Agriculture

Statistics show that the earning ca
pacity of every man the university
is increased by about $40 day for
every day Of the four years he is or
dinarily in college, or to the extent
of $4,000 for his life-earning period.
These figures are based on public
school training providing a Iife-earn-
ing ability of $4,000, high school
training $4,000 and University train
ing $4,000.
Georgia has invested half a million
dollars in higher education in agricul-
ture, and, according to these figures,
is destined to secure from graduates
and post-graduates alone $1,920,000;
from short course men, based on one
twelfth the return from college course,
$3,472,000, or a grand total of 1892
900.
No line Of human activity is more
likely to give returns equivalent to
these figures than agriculture, the
least understood, appreciated or sci
entifically correlated of our vocations.
In fact, what investment can a state
hope to make which will pay so large
a dividend as the training of her youth
to participate with efficiency in her
basic agricultural industries2
Thus, the formations for initial lead
ership have been established, for Geor-
gia has been fortunate in returning

course at the College of Agriculture,

bat loyal and efficient body of alumni

WE MUST HAVE GOOD ROADS
(From Scribner's Magazine)

If the average life of a car be three
years, it seems possible that by 1920
we shall have on our highways a total
OF not less than 100000 motor-ve-
hicles, or one for every twenty in
hibitants. This is about three times
our present registration. In the ten
states the increase in five years has
been four fouldBP i..Sosiinwhatia1
been fourfold. Massachusetts, reg.
istered one motor vehicle for every
108 person in 1910 and one for every
N.4 in 1915. In 1910 the population
per car in Ohio was l49; today it is
27.7.
To care for this traffic we have in
the United States about 2,125,OOO
miles of country roads not counting
streets. What mileage has been "im-
proved" it is impossible to say, for
the word has no standard meaning.
We're probably safe in assuming that
tor a satisfactory system not less than
l,250,000 miles of road must still be
improved. With the ever growing
traffic and with the consequent de-
mand for better construction, the ul-
innate cost of this system will not
fall short of $l0,OOO,OOOOOO, and its
construction will probably cover a
period of not less than forty years,
These figures do not overstate the
case, Many road have been and will
be built too narrow, too crooked, with
excessive grades and inadequate pave
ments. These should be widened
Strengthened, regarded and repaved
They will also have to be provided
with bridges designed for the increas
ing weight of vehicles. However this
may be, it seems safe to say that w,
have big job on our hands, anc
that if we are to plan for its execution
we must do so in big way.
