RESERVE CORPS
MAKING FINE SHOWING

Atlanta, June 5.-The men Of the
Officers Reserve Corps in the training
school at Fort Mcpherson, although
in training only little over three
weeks, have already made such splen-
did progress that they can scarcely
be distinguished from regulars when
they drill.
This is due to numerous contribut-
ing influences, the principal one of
which is that they were body Of
picked men to begin with, with intel
ligence and ability above the ordi-
nary Another reason is that many
Of them had previous military expert
ence, although 1T is probable that less
than half are in this class.
Probably the strongest reason is
that the training is intensive, a steady
grind for hours every day, and the
men are applying themselves with
absolute concentration to their studies
and drills, because they expect to be-
come officers and they went into the
work with a serious appreciation of
it's responsibilities.

able crop that can be grown under the
present food and feed emergency.
great part OF the increased acreage is

mercial fertilizer 1t has always paid
me M, to apply 200 or 800 pounds of fer
tilizer around my corn the second or
third blowing, or when the corn was
between one and three feet high"
The corn crop is the bread of the
South, and its yield should be increas-
ed to the limit This fall and next
winter the southern people should eat
more corn bread and less wheat
bread.
Our farmers must not fail to pro-
duce all the hay possible, and it will
pay to fertiize patch of sorghum
and peas with fertilizer containing
from 10 to II per cent phosphoric acid
and ~ to 2 per cent nitrogen.
Cotton is not generally recognized
not overlook the fact that an acre Of
cotton that will produce bale will
yield almost as great a food and feed
value in the seed as the same land
planted to corn. Therefore, an in.
creased yield in that crop means in
creased food and feed products.
Fertilizers are used for the plant
food they contain, and it will be i'm
possible to produce profitable yields
without ample plant food. just what
fertilizer to apply and how much to
use as side application will depend
on the soil type, the crop planted, and
the kind and amount of fertilizer used
at the time the land was prepared.
On Piedmont soils and clay soils we
would recommend from 200 to 800
pounds Of fertilizer for cotton and
corn Analysing 6 to per cent phos
phoric acid and to 4 per cent nitro
gen. For field crops in the coastal
plain, we would recommend from 800
to 400 pounds of fertilizer analyzing
from 4 to per cent phosphoric acid
and from to per cent nitrogen.
This fertilizer should be applied to
corn when it is from knee to waist
high and to cotton at the time the
first squares are forming.
For the silt loans in Alabama, Lou.
isiana and Mississippi, we would rec
ommend for cotton or corn 100 to 200
pounds of fertilizer analysing IL per
cent available phosphoric acid and 212
per cent nitrogen. This is to be ap-
piled to the corn when about knee high
and to the cotton when squares begin
forming. Under most favorable con-
ditions a pound of fertilizer means
three pounds Of seed cotton. From
this we can see that $100 invested
in fertilizer at this time means from
Sc to So next fall, and badly needed
commodity is brought into existence

GERMANY MAKES CORDIAL
REPLP IN RECENT NOTE
TO SPANISH GOVERNMENT
Most Cordial Reply Is Made to That
Government in Answer to Protest
of Ship Being Torpedoed.

Paris, June 5.-The reply of the
German government to Spain regard
ing the attack by German subma-
rine on the Spanish steamer Patricio,
says a Havas dispatch from Madrid
is understood to be extremely cordial.
The Germans now declare that the
ship was not torpedoed and that the
submarine had no intention of sink
ing her, but simply wanted to stop
her.
AS the ship did not stop, the note
adds, the submarine fired the shell
which struck the hull of the Patricio.
The German government, it is said
expresses regret over the death Of the
engineer on the Patricio and is pre-
pared to pay an indemnity to the fam
lily.
The German government in it's note,
the dispatch adds, says that it never
had any intention OF causing injury
to Spain or insult to the Spanish flag
If the explanation should be deemed
insufficient, the note says, Germany is
disposed to do honor to the Spanish
flag, on on the first possible occasion
German warships will file past Span
ish ship which will hoist the Spanish
flag, and each German ship will fire
salute of twenty-one guns.
The attack on the Spanish steamer
Patricio early in May caused the
Spanish government to send note
to Germany which the Spanish pre-
mier, Marquis Prieto, declared was
more energetic than had been cuto-
mary. The Spanish note declared the
transaction of all diplomatic business
with Germany would be suspended I'M
less replies were received to notes
concerning attacks on Spanish steam
ers. The note also asked for an in
demnity for the Patricio.

the acreage devoted to food crops as
practically all of the land has been
planted, but large yields can be OBJ
tanned just the same, provided good
cultivation is given and fertilizers are
literally applied as side applications.
Potatoes have advanced $50 per
cent, corn 100 per cent, hay SO per
cent, beef and pork 100 per cent,
whereas the cost of fertilizer has adj
vanced only rs per cent

bread will be a luxury instead of the

The farmer is being advised on ev-
cry hand to increase production. but
he is limited in his credit and he finds
1t hard to obtain sufficient labor. The
best way to increase the production
of corn and other food crops, as we'll
as cotton, is to cultivate thoroughly
and often and make side applications
of fertilizers. II the farmer hasn't the
money to hire labor, under present con-
ditions, it will pay him to borrow
money on his crop to pay sufficient
labor to cultivate and fertilize his
crops adequately. After each rain
dust mulch should be made with the
cultivator. We need not expect
bountiful harvest unless the soil mois-
ture is conserved AS a general rule,
the amount of corn produced is in di-
rect proportion to the amount of wa
ter conserved in the soil by thorough
cultivation.

WATSON AGITATION NOW
BEING PROBED THROUGH
OFFICE j. 5. ATTORNEY
District Attorney Hooper Alexander
Has Taken Case of Thomson Editor
Up With Attorney General.

Atlanta, June 4.-According to in
formation from the New York Ameri-
can, which has just been brought to
light here, United States District At
sorney Hooper Alexander has direct
ed attention of the Department of
Justice to publication by Thomas E.
Watson and has asked that action be
aiken. The story in the New York
paper from its Washington correspon-
dent says Attorney General Gregory
has taken the matter up.
Activity by Hooper Alexander is
looked upon as somewhat unusual in
asmuch as the Watson publication is
in the Southern Federal district of the
state in which Earl Donaldson is Dis.
trict Attorney.
In its Washington story on the pro-
paganda against selective draft con-
scription, the New York paper says:
"a demand for vigorous action came
from Georgia. Information gathered
by District Attorney Hooper Alexan-
der, of the Northern district, was that
physical resistance to the registra-
ton law was possible in several Geor-
gia counties.
Information sent to Georgia sena-
tors and representatives was laid be-
fore officials of the Department of
Justice, and was likewise transmitted
to the White House 1t will be consid-
cred by Attorney General Gregory.
"The communication received lays
the blame for conditions outlined at
the door of periodical in Georgia,
edited by Tom Watson, and to similar
publications. The communication sug-
gested immediate and drastic action
against Watson and other agitators,
who have advocated going to Jail rath-
err than submit to CONSUMPTION.
Mr., Alexander, on the telephone late
tonight, said the only letter he has
written on the subject was one about
ten days ago. In that he doesn't think
he made direct reference to any par
ticular paper or to the Watson paper.
In the absence of his letter file he did
not attempt to say exactly what he
had written the Department of JUS
tice but it willing that substance
of his letter be used when he can get
to his office.
He expresses the belief that the con-
dition which existed ten days ago, at
the time his letter was written, has
