SEES GERMANY CRUMBLE
General ,Joffre Tells Soldiers Teutons' Military Strength Will Be Crushed by Mutual Advance of Allies

Paris, Aug. 2.-The Bulletin des the day issued by General Joffre to the French army on the occasion of the second anniversary of the out break of the war The order of General Joffre follows:
 Soldiers of the Republics: Your third year of fighting has begun. For two years past you have been support ing with unfailing strength the weight Of an implacable conflict. You have caused all the plans of our enemies to fail. You vanquished them on the Marne; you checked them on the Yser, and you beat them in the ArtOis and in the Champagne at a time when they were vainly seeking victory on the plains of Russia. Then your vic- i orious resistance during a battle of five months duration broke the Ger man efforts in front of Verdun.
 Thanks to your stubborn courage, the armies of our allies have been en- ahed to manufacture arms, the weight periencing over their entire front.
 The moment is approaching when under the strength of our mutual ad- vance, the military power of Germany will crumble.
 Soldiers of France, you may be proud of the work you already have accomplished! You have determined

WHEN TO HARVEST
SOY BEAN CROP
Varieties Are Not All Alike and
So Each Requires Special
Attention
LONG GROWERS YIELD MOST
When Working Soy Beans Into Rota-
ton Study the Variety to Be Used
Beans Supply Excellent Forage for
Hogs.

(By ]. C. McAmis, Division of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee.)
In planning a suitable rotation In
Guiding soy beans, 1t is important to
know the approximate length Of sea-
son of the particular variety used.
The following Is quoted from Bulle-
tin No. So, 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 of
Is that all varieties shorten their
length of season the later they are
planted. However, later paintings are
usually accompanied by decrease in
yield. It 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

In most parts of the cotton belt the
practice Of growing cotton almost con,
tinuously is changing. This system
failed to keep up the fertility and the
humus supply Of the soil, and also
failed 70 provide stock food.
The following is an especially good
rotation for the cotton belt:
First year-Cotton.
Second year-Corn, with covpeas be
tween the rows.
Third year-Winter oats, followed
by cowpeas.
With this rotation the same family
can farm practically three times q
large an area as when nothing but cot
ton Is grown. All the cotton that can
be picked can be raised. and BY prop
eriy organizing The work, the other
crops can be raised besides. This re

Large numbers of pure-bred live
stock are now being brought into this
state from other states Most of these
animals are sires but many are mature
females. This introduction is apt to
continue for an indefinite period.
This state has now quite number
of local breeders, some of whom rank
with the best in any state, but the
majority are still in the developing
stage or mere amateurs. These men
are, and will continue more to be,
contenders for this trade in pedigreed
live stock, not only in this state but
also in adjoining and more distant ter
rltory.
VIII they be able to successfully
compete with our present dominant
source of supply, t. e., the Middle
West?
What will be necessary in order that
they may expect to secure this bust
ness?
These are questions, the answers to
which should be receiving serious
thought by those already taking and
proposing to take steps In the regis
tered live stock industry.
We cannot hope to have the history
Of this state materially different from
that Of other states in this regard-in

ity of animals demanded by the dis

the purchasing public in such state Of
development as to be above criticism,
Even with these requisites, ready

cured, If the breeder has increased the
size of his holdings rapidly. There is
no regular market where registered
stock may be shipped and sold, so that
the breeder must consider methods Of

Naturally, as good animals are dis

the best possible sort Of advertising.

made, to exhibit specimens from his
