Baptist Academy for Blue Eye

pRpUSt ACdueEiy TOT Due Eye
 It is now almost an assured fact that Baptist Academy will be established at Blue Eye, the necessary prelimi- naries now having been about complet- ed. Eld. J. E. Rose returned from there Monday night where he had been for several days past working in the interest of securing the proper dona- tions. Ten acres of ground and a handsome sum was subscribed. Several others are yet to be called upon and Eld. Rose feels there is no doubts but each of the others will do their part as literally as the ones who have donated.
 Blue Eye is ideally located, as these academies are placed where schools offering their advantages are needed.
 There is something over thirty of these schools scattered over the noun tains of the south and are called moun- tain schools. They are fostered by the Home Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention and the different State boards in which they are located. They are of course, Christian schools. The course of study is equal to the very best offered by any school. This means that they are accredited schools and teachers graduating from them ar e given certificates to teach without re- examination and those graduating from these Academies can also enter college without re-examination.
 Eld. Rose will leave next week for Jonesboro to attend the meeting of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention and will put the matterj before the convention. There is little doubt about his getting the co-operatioh asked for, as he has already had some of the leading men of the state go to Blue Eye, and they are more \han pleased with the location.

EXAMPLE OF CANADA.

The men who went acros sthe seas
from Canada were taken, in most
part from the farm, the shop, the
factory and the Offices of the country,
and yet in the sternest test of this
terrible war they proved themselves
the equal of the finest soldiers in
Europe. What Canada has done the
United States is also capable of do
ing. They are practically the same
people as we; resourceful, highly in
telligent and quick to adapt them
selves to new conditions. Six months
training will work wonders with the
native American, just as it has in
most cases converted a Canadian CT
william into a first-class fighting man.
If the United States goes about this
business, as we believe it is now re-
solved to go about it., seriously and
systematically, it ought to have be-
fore the year is ended an army, in
point of personnel, individual eff
cheney and morale, worthy to take its
place side by side with allied forces
on any Observation-Disclosures Chronicle.

COOP THE MOTHER HEN.

It is not good poultry management
to allow the monther hen to range
unrestricted with her chicks. With
such freedom the hen frequently takes
her brood through wet grass and as a
result some are chilled and die, espe-
cially the weaker ones, which are like
ly to be left behind. The loss of
young chicks which follows such a
practice is large and mainly prevent
able, specialists in the United States
department of agriculture say. Fur.
thermore, the food which a brood al.
lowed to range with the hen obtains
goes very largely to keep up the heat
of the body and the chicks do moi
make as good growth as they other
wise would.
Chick losses of this nature can be
largely prevented by shutting the her
in a coop. Any style of coop which
is dry, ventilated, and can be closed
at night to protect the brood against
cats, rats, and other animals, anG
which, while combining the hen, will,
allow the chicks to pass in and out
freely after they are a few days old
will be satisfactory. The hen should
be confined until the chicks are
weaned, though a small yard may be
attached to the coop, if desired, tt
allow the hen to exercise. The fence
can be raised from the ground fal
enough to allow the chicks to go il
OF out, but not high enough for the
hen to escape. By using a coop The
chicks can find shelter and warmth
under the hen at any time, and the
weaklings after a few days may de
velop into strong, healthy chicks.
Where chicks are raised with hens
they are likely to become infested
with lice. If the lice get very numer
Gus, they greatly retard the chicks
growth, and may even cause thei,
death. The hen should be powdere'
thoroughly with some good insec
powder before she is put in the COO
with the chicks at intervals of severe
days or a week thereafter. The bah,
chicks should be examined for lice
particularly on the head, under tn
wings, and about the vent. If an,
are found, a little grease, such a
lard, should be rubbed on in thos
places. Apply grease moderately, a
too much will injure the chicks. Tn
chicks should be examined frequentl,
and the treatment repeated if lie
are found on them.

creased discharge from the charging

creased discharge from the charging
drainage area. 1t is customary,
therefore, to construct these ridges
with practically no fall TO rthe first
100 or 200 feet and gradually to in
crease the fall at intervals of several
hundred feet until the maximum
grade is reached at the outlet. 1t is
essential in the Mangum terrace sys-
tenn to have some sort of watercourse
or ditch to carry off the water from
the ends of the ridges.
Narrow-base terraces of both the
level and graded types have been tried
in various sections of the country, but
have been found for the most part
to be unsatisfactory. Such terraces
often break with slight accumulations
of water, and at such times augment
rather than lessen erosion down the
hillsides.
A terrace is susceptible to failure
until it has become thoroughly set
tied. To facilitate settling it is best
not to cultivate a terrace the first
year, but to SOW it to a crop.
The best results are obtained where
crop row are run parallel with the
terraces.
Since the primary purpose of ter
racing is to hold the soil of the farm
in place and thereby both maintain its
fertility and render possible an in.

greater yields and land values, which

CARE NECESSARY FOR
GOOD STANDS OF CORN

To make every acre of corn do its
full duty this year, to bring its yield
up to "war strength" it must be
started off with a good stand. Farm
ers who exercise all means to this
end at planting time will be well
repaid at the harvest. Here are some
suggestions from specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture that may aid in securing, as far
as possible, the proper number of
plants to the acre:
The best distribution of plants over
the land is obtained by making the
distances between single plants in the
row and the distances between rows
the same. With such an equal dis
tribution, the least possible loss from

competition is expired. However, in
order that sufficient plants be grown
upon an acre to utilize most COM
pletely the resources of the soil and
climate and at the same time permit

tees, it is usually necessary to sacri-

gained by even distribution for those
