In planning a suitable rotation in
Guiding soy beans, it is important TO
know the appro- mate length Of sea-
son of the particular variety used.
The following is quoted from Bulle-
tin No. 50, of the Tennessee Station:
There is not only great difference
in the time between planting and ma
turity required by the different varie-
ties when planted at the same date,
but also a marked variation in the
length of season required by any one
variety when planted at widely sep
arated dates"
The variation in length of season OF
given variety takes place almost en-
tirely previous to Towering. The
length of time between Towering and
maturing seed is practically the same
regardless of the date of seeding.
The important factor to bear in
mind in the calculation of the approx
mate date of harvesting or hogging off
is that all varieties shorten their
length of season the later they are
planted. However, later paintings are
usually accompanied by decrease in
yield. 1t is also generally true that the
short season varieties produce less
than do the longer season varieties.
Below is given the approximate
dates of harvesting hay and grain for
the standard varieties for Tennessee
when they are seeded at the most
favorable time:

COTTON BELT CROP ROTATION

tBy c. E. Alfred. Division Of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee)
In most parts of the cotton belt the
practice of growing cotton almost con.
tinuously is changing. This system
failed to keep u3the fertility and the
humus supply Of the soil, and also
failed to provide stock food
The following Is an especially good
rotation for the cotton belt:
First year-Cotton.
Second year-Corn, with cowpeas be.
tween the rows.
Third year Winter oats, followed
by cowpeas.
With this rotation the same family
can farm practically three times as
large an area as when nothing but cot.
ton is grown. All the cotton that can
be picked can be raised, and by prop
erly organizing the work. the other
crops can be raised besidess This re.

The vegetable PURGE, with white

termed cream soup; for this use

LOCKING THE DOOR roo LAVE.


LOCKING THE DOOR TOO LATE.
j When farmer owns a valuable
blooded horse he protects himself
from loss at the hands of thieves by
putting paddock on his barn door.
The banker who cares for your mon
ley, locks it up in his great burglar
iproof safe at night.
When the merchant goes home after
the days labor he leaves his goods
under lock and key and bolts and bars
The individual invariably takes
measures to protect his own,
/ But not so with US as a nation. We
have accumulated vast stores of
wealth, but have neglected to provide
] the necessary means for the protection
of that wealth. ~,
1t is true that after months of indif-
ference, congress has at last passed a
preparedness measure by providing
for the increase of the regular army
and the National Guard to total ap-
proximate force of about 100000 men,
but it will be several years before this
force can be gathered together and
armed and equipped and drilled and
disciplined and put in shape to meet
an enemy on equal terms. In the
mean time we are just about where
we were before the bill was passes
without lock to our door.
1t is not likely now that we will
have any trouble with European coun-
tries after the present war is over. We
sincerely hope not.
But we are not so sanguine as to
the attitude of Japan.
1t is well known that Mexican ennis
saries are in Japan seeking the aid of
the Japanese people in war against
the United States Nothing would suit
the Japanese purposes and designs
better than such an alliance. 1t would
afford them the coveted opportunity
and excuse for Selling the Philip
pines, which they greatly desire. A
great army could be landed on our
Pacific coast and we could not prevent
it. Another tremendous army of Jap
anese could be landed in Mexico, and
in cooperation with the Mexicans could
invade US across the border at a hun
dred points simultaneously. Our pres
ent military strength is so ridiculously
small that we would be hopelessly
out numbered and out matched at
every point 4 a.s ~.
Press dispatches show every indica-
ton that the Mexicans are expecting
just such an alliance with the Japan
csc, and if the attack comes at all
it will not be delayed until we have had
two or three years in which to collect
and drill an army. 1t will come soon,
while we are still in a hopeless and
helpless condition.
The American people are at last |
awakening to a realization of the peril
of our national helplessness, and con-
gress is taking belated steps toward
defense for our homes and our great
wealth. But are we locking the door
too late? Will the marauder gain
entrance before the paddock can be
made?
"A stick of dynamite is a child's toy
compared with the Mexico-Japanese
situation which confronts the Ameri-
can government and people today.
A single word from Tokyo or Mex
leo City is of more vital concern TO us

tumult of indignation is at fever heat

Someone arises in a public meeting
and proposes a practical scheme for
development of the commercial inter-
ests of the community. He is sincere
and eager to do something for the
benefit of his home town. He believes
in progressiveness. His scheme looks
good and sounds better to the other
business men and citizens and every
body begins to talk in his favor. The
editor backs it up in his columns and
for few weeks it is the general topic
of conversation. No forceful leader
seems to be at hand, and the rest of
US are too engrossed in our private
affairs to assume the duties and res
possibilities of leadership. Time does
the rest and a practical, forward
movement is begged in the mire of
forgetfulness.

Preparedness is just now the great
and overshadowing question before
the American people. Everybody is
talking about it, either for or against.
A few months ago monster peace pa
rades were held in the large cities
and war and preparedness against war
were denounced on every hand Today
you can find scarcely a man who can
tell you even the month in which one
of these parades were held. They have
been forgotten. A few weeks ago
New York City held a monster pre-
paredness parade, in which $4,000
people participated. Chicago immedi-
ately followed suit with one Of the
greatest parades in the history of this
country, all in the interest of pre-
paredness. Other cities, large and
small all over the country, caught the
fever and paraded for preparedness.
Governors proclaimed June as Pre-
paredness Day, and everybody march
ed and shouted for preparedness. But
these, too, will be forgotten, for it is
the way of the American people to do
today and forget tomorrow. a

4 And as it is in national affairs so it
lis in the confines Of the smaller. local
community. A rainy season comes
along, country roads and unpaved
town streets become muddy and i'm
passable, and everybody raises his
voice in loud and vociferous wall for
better roads and streets. But time
soothes him into forgetfulness. The
rain ceases, the sun dries up the mud
nd the roads assume more normal
conditions. Traffic is less impeded and
the citizen promptly turns his atten-
ton to other and more pressing mat
tiers of personl consideration. The
roads are forgotten till the next rain
falls.
