THE BY-PRODUCTS.

The American people form an ex-
travagant nation, and many times II
has been pointed out where by-prod-
ucts could be turned into veritable
gold mines. One of these features Is
told concerning newspaper shortage
in the following editorial from the
Townsville Times Enterprise:
Enough wood has been wasted
around Georgia saw mills in the form
of sawdust and slabs to supply the
whole United States with white pape:
for five years, according to a famous
chemical engineer, who recently visit
ed the state.
Why shouldn't this wood waste be
reclaimed and turned into paper by a
plant located in the state?
]. C. McAuliffe, president of the
Georgia Press association, accompan-
led by committee from the associa-
ton, has recently undertaken in New
York to negotiate contract to supply
the newspapers in the association with
white paper, and in connection with
this contract, the committee also took
up the subject of a paper plant in
Georgia with several large paper man
ufacturers.
In addition to the wood waste around
abandoned sawmill sites, there Is a
large quantity of waste in stumps left
in the woods.

A NREDFUL CHANGE.

The Atlanta Constitution has called
attention to the fact that the election
laws of Georgia, so far as the compila-
len and publicity of the final result,
should be radically changed so as to
make the regulations in keeping with
all reason.
The Atlanta daily explains the rea-
son why the official result will not be
known until the general assembly
meets next June, although the presi-
dent will have been inaugurated, an a
the governor-elect ready for his oath
Of office When the constitution ar
ranged the matter in the present form
the legislature met In the winter, fo!.
lowing the election in the fall.
Georgia needs to keep apace ant
remedy these conditions, which NIGH
some day work needless trouble ans

BOIL WEEVIL CLUBS.

weevil clubs are set forth by ]. G..
Oliver, in charge of the state cam
paign, in an article in today's Times
Recorder. We commend it to the con-
sideration of all people interested "A

interests of this section.
Mr.. oliver is delighted with the
success met in the organization Of
these clubs, but it does not mean the
work has been consummated by any
1neans-the fight has just begun.
The conditions of the weather, es
pecially the lack of rain, has made it
almost impossible for some farmers
to plow their ground and turn under
the stalks before frost. In places, ac-
cording to information received by the
Recorder, the work Of the far
mer on his land has been brought 10

The boil weeyi1 problem is vital to
the life of every person of the in
tested region, and 1t is necessary that
rothing be left undone to detain the
successful measures in combating the
pest.

Potash and Phosphates.

The agricultural department of the
University of Illinois has published an
other report dealing with the soils Of
this state and the fertilizers which
they need. This new investigation,
like the last, shows that Illinois farm.
ers need not worry about potash. With
the exception of swamp lands III soils
have all the potassium salts they need,
and the addition of more is a stimu-
liant rather than a food.
What Illinois land usually does lack
is phosphorus, and the United States
has a plentiful supply Of phosphate
rock. This is good news to farmers
who had been taught that the lack of
German potash would cut down their
crops. 1t tends likewise to stimulate
an American industry which was be-
ing hidden behind clever foreign ad.
vertising. By the time this war is
over, America will know how much
potash fertilizer it really needs, and
what the stuff is worth on the SOIL

MEMORIAL CHALICES
SECOND COUNCIL OF KNIGHTS
OF COLUMBUS TO ADOPT
MEMORIAL TO DECEASED
MEMBERS.

Another council of the knights of
Columbus has followed the splendid
example of Elm Hill Council No. 213,
of Boston. Massachusetts, which
council, in the short period of five
months, has given equally as many
chalices to the Extension Society for
poor missionaries.
The Fourth Degree knights of Co.
lumbus of Fort Wayne, Indiana, at a
recent meeting of the District Assem-
bly,, authorized an amendment to the
bylaws of the assemblies in the state,
providing that on the death of a
fourth degree member, the sum of
fifteen dollars shall be donated to the
Catholic Church Extension Society for
the purchase of chalice; the said
chalice to be inscribed with the name
of the deceased member and that of
the assembly to which he belonged.
1t was suggested by the Extension
Society that this assembly of the
Knights of Columbus would adopt
this method of memorializing their de-
ceased members.
Other councils would, no doubt, wish
to select another sacred vessel, which
could bear the name of the deceased
member, as well as that of the coun-
Gil to which he belonged.
The Catholic Church Extension So
ciety, $50 Mccormick building, Chi
cago, H., would gladly answer any in
quiries from councils interested in this
suggestion.
