depend very largely on other factors
than the plant food content. Drainage,
physical and mechanical condition, or
ganic matter and thcroughness and
depth Of Village will all have much
to do with the soils ability to give
up its plant food to crops. Undoubt-
eddy, too, the mineral forms in which
the plant food elements occur will
greatly influence their availability. Es-
pecially is this true of the potash and
phosphcric acid. Experiments seem
to indicate that the soils of the Lime
stone Valleys and those of the Coastsd
Plain give up their potash more readily
than do the soils of the Piedmont Pla-
teau and the Appalachian Mountains.
1t will be readily seen that nitrogen
is deficient in all soils of the state,
excepting some CT the bottom lands.
Increasing the nitrogen content is of
first Importance in any system of soil
building Phosphoric acid is also gen
orally deficient. With a few excep-
tionS, the soils of north and middle
Georgia are we'll supplied with potash,

ical condition of the soil retards tn

standard prolific corns but a small
area might well be devoted to them
for early grain.
Corn sown broadcast at the rate of
bushel per acre will produce forage
more quickly than almost any other
crop. 1t grows off much faster than
Sorghum and will be ready for use
earlier. After it is cut the land can
go into cowpeas for hay provided an
early variety of corn has been used
and early planting practiced. In this
way the shortage of feedstuffs in the
Spring can be largely averted.

The island lies in latitude 21 degrees, IA minutes north and long1- tude 12 degrees, 10 minutes east Mex leo meridian off the east coast of Yu- catan and gained it's name because on landing Hernandez de Cordova saw long lines of women in skirts worship ping a goddess of whose temple they evidently were priestless. General Alvarado on the four hundredth an- niversary of discovery, he intended to place on the spot of landing a suit able tablet which would mark it un- til the larger monument could be placed there.

 It is possible that the coolies have already crossed the river into this State and the police of tl<s city have also been advised to search for the Chinese. Warning will also be sent to other cities if a report is received that the Jersey City authorities have lost all clews to the vanishing coolieS. |

PICK TWO MORE JURORS IN FLAG
 BURNING TRIAL
Bouck w hite Reminded That This Is a Law of Government Not

TWO jurors were selected yesterday to hear evidence against Bouck White. pastor of the Church of Social Revo1u- tion, and ten other defendants indict- ed for desecrating the American flag and on trial before Judge Mcintyre in General Sessions Tuesday. The tenth and eleventh men were Chas. A. Beecroft, secretary, of 46O West 147th Street, and James W. Howie, in- surance, of 250 West 1O4th Street.
 In examining MT. Howie, Assistant District Attorney Rorke asked:
 Do you believe in the red flag above the flag of the United States %
 'No," replied the talesman.
 How about the red flag of liar vard?" interpolated White, who is as- slsting Bernard Raymond in his own defense.
 ''I'm proud of that flag. I am one or the alumni. I come of good old New England stock" was the reply
 Let me remind the Court" said White, that a Mayor of New York city. Mayor Gaynor, declared that the red in the American flag does not stand for bloodshed, but the common blood of mankind. If you prick be- heath the surface of the skin you will find blood"
 'Yes," said MT. Rorke, land it was this same Mayor you have quoted who said This is a law of government and not of men,"
 White and the other defendants are charged with burning the American flag, together with those of other na- tions in a melting pot" in the yard back of the church in June 1e16

RABBI STEPS TO

Will Marry Mixed Couple,
 Turned Down By Priest < and Minister $

New York, March 8. = Thomas Burke, who is superintendent of Pier. K, one of the Pennsylvania Railroads
 big terminals of freight in Jerseyg City is Catholic. Tonight he is to wed Miss Margaret Fleming.A of Buffalo. She is Protestant. Burke would not consent to have the marriage ceremony performed by oth-, CT than a clergyman of his own be- lief and Miss Fleming refused to be- come bride if she was to answer to the VOWS read by Catholic prelate. S
 For a time it looked as if, despitea their love and admiration for eachR other, the wedding would not take, place. As the time appointed for the nuptials drew nearer, and as each insisted in their stand, friends took a hand to settle the difficulty.
 Aided and ,abetted by Cupid, and [ with the war news staring them in
 he face, one acquaintance suggested that they compromise and have the ceremony performed by a neutral. This idea was accepted by both Mr.. Burke and Miss Fleming, and then a. search was started to find a person competent to perform the ceremony,k who was agreeable to both.
 Justices of the peace, aldermen. \ mayor and such like were barred. It z must be a regularly ordained clergy-6 man or there would be no wedding was the ultimatum. x
 Rabbi Rudolf, of Ohab Sholem Syn agogue, in Jersey City, agreed to off, ciate and he proved to be aeceptableS to both parties. The wedding is to- take place tomorrow night at the synagogue in Warner avenue Jersey City, but it is stipulated that Burke is to continue his devotions as~a Catholic and that his bride will beN to follow her Protestant be- liefs. 5s
 Tonight friends will celebrate the peaceful ending of the trouble with ! dinner at Wickiup Hall, in Jersey8 City. which MT. Burke will attend.~ 1t is calculated to end the celebratiom in time to reach the synagogue for the wedding. @. M
