Upland Rice
r. r. chiIds, Scientific Assistant Cereal
Investigations, U. S. DEPT. of Ayr,
Cooperating with Georgia
st. Col. of Agriculture.

Owing to the inevitable shortage of
food stuff caused by the war, the peo-
pie of Georgia are urged to make
their farms self-sustaining by growing
food crops
While rice is best grown on irri-
gated soils some good yields have
been made on lands that were not If
Tigated and there are many farms in
the state on which this crop can be
proftably grown under present con
ditions.
According to the census of 1910
Georgia grew 1868 bushels of rice,
1882 bushels of which were grown
without irrigation. Thirty-two differ
ent counties were represented, these
counties being scattered through all
sections of the state. On most Of
these areas the yields ranged from
20 to SO bushels per acre
For the culture of rice without irri-
cation, the best soils are drained
ponds or moist bottom lands The
rice is usually planted in rows just
wide enough to permit cultivation
The seed are dropped in hills from
to IL inches apart, several seed being
dropped in each hill. Several cultiva-
tons and -hoeings are usually neces-
sary to keep down weeds and grass.
In some sections of north Georgia,
the rice is sowed broadcast or with
grain drill, the natural spring rises
of the rivers being depended on to fur
nish irrigation.
The rice can be harvested and
thrashed in the same manner as the
other grain crops. The rough rice
must be milled to remove the outer
husk before it is suitable for food
There are number of small mills
for this purpose in the state, but if
none is available the hull can be re-
moved by placing the rice in a trough
made by following out log and
pounding it with a maui.
This rice will not be as highly pol
ished as that found on the market,
but the dark unpublished rice is more
nutritious than the pure white rice
found on the market as the outer lay
ers of the latter, which are very rich
in protein, are removed in the polish
ing process.

BALFoUR CALLS ON
THEODORE ROOSEVELT

New York, May 15.-Foreign Min
lister Arthur ]. Balfour, of Great Brit
ain, spent somewhat militant Sun
day although it was supposed to be a
day of rest for the weary ENJOYS.
In the morning the British States
men went to the Cathedral of John
the Divine, where he listened to a
war sermon by the Rev. DR.. Charles
H. Brent, Episcopal bishop of the
Philippines. In the afternoon he went
to Oyster Bay for visit to Col.
Theodore Roosevelt. There were no
formal entertainments for the mem
bers of the war mission and Mr. Bal
four's colleagues spent the day as they
pleased.
Mr. Balfour, who motored to Oys-
ter Bay, did not arrive at Sycamore
Hill until nearly 6 o'clock. He had
supper with the family, and then
viewed the famous chopping block
where Col. Roosevelt gets lis exercise
cutting wood.
The British statesman and the for
mer President have long been friends
and the visit was purely social in its
character. No intimation was given
of what they talked about.

Cincinnati Man Tells How to shriveI
Up Corns or Calluses So They
lift Off With Fingers.

Ouch ! +! This kind OF
OF rough talk will be heard less here
in town if people troubled with corns
will follow the simple advice of this
Cincinnati authority, who claims that
a few drops of drug called freezone
when applied to tender, aching corn
or hardened callus stops soreness at
once, and soon the corn or cailus dries
up and lifts right off without pain.
He says freezone dries immediate
ly and never infamcs or even irritates
the surrounding skin. A small bot
tie of freezone will cost very little
at any drug store, but will positively
remove every hard or soft corn or
callus from ones feet Millions of
American women will welcome this
announcement since the inauguration
OF the high heels. If your druggist
doesn't have freezone tell him to or

PRESS CENSORSHIP FIGHT Is
OVER

! Washington, D. c., May l6.-The
administration probably will make
TO further efforts at present to have
Congress enact press censorhrip
law, nor is it expected to insist that
Senate and House conferees of the
espionage bill will be urged to retail
the censorship provision written into
that measure by the House.
For the present the executive
branch of the government, it was
said tonight, is content to permit the
newspapers to continue as under the
regulations voluntarily accepted by
them governing publication of mill
tary information. If there are devel-
opments III the next few months that
indicate. that self-imposed restrictions
are not effective and that information
I of value to the enemy is being pub
lished the fight for a censorship law
will be renewed
Many administration officials do
not believe that such step will be
necessary. They say the only real
purpose Of the stringent censorship
provision put by the Department Of
Justice in the senate draft Of the es-
pionage bill, but~eliminated by the
Senate before passage, was to curb a
few newspapers, not more than 5 per
cent of the total published in the
! United States, which have SO far fail
ed to abide by the regulations which
others have imposed upon themselves
and following consistently.

PAPER MAY BE MADE OF
! WOOD PULP FROM ALASKA

Atlanta, Ga, May l5.-Wood pulp
from far-off Alaska will help to solve
the problem of the high cost of print
paper, which has confronted Ameri-
can newspapers with the most serious
problem in the history of journalism,
if plans OF the Federal Trade Com
mission, of which William ]. Harris,
of Georgia, is chairman, are success
fully carried out
In Alaska are vast quantities Of
wood pulp available from the great
forests, and the potential supply OF
water power is practically unlimited.
1t is believed that the manufacture
of pulp by cheap water power will in
a measure Offset the high cost of ship
ping the pulp into the states, and the
government will be able to sell white
paper stock to publishers on reason
able basis.
Already the Federal Trade Com
mission, through the efforts of Chair
IAN Harris has forced the paper man
:; acturers to agree for the Commits
5 IN to fix their prices.

Soy Beans For Grain and Hay
Ey John r. Fain, Professor of Agrcno-
my, State College of Agriculture.

Especially in North Georgia the Soy
Bean should receive more attention
than has been given it in the past
For grain producer on good soils
this crop can scarcely be surpassed
1t yields more bushels OF grain per
acre than do Cowpeas and the grain
IS rich in protein. For hog grazing
it stands as North Georgias most
promising crop.
Soy Beans will not produce well on
poor worn lands however and should
never be planted there. The Cowpea
will remain the best legume for this
kind Of land. 1t seems to stand ad-
verse conditions here better than the
soy bean but on good land the soy
bean is harder
For grain soy beans should be
planted in 30 inch rows and cult
waited once or twice. BY this method
a larger crop will be grown. Beans
planted in this manner during early
spring will be ready to Craze from
August to October depending on the
variety. The Ito San and Hamber-
landt are examples of early kinds
and the Mammoth Yellow and Black
of late kinds An average yield
should Craze from eight to fifteen
100 pound hogs for thirty days Graz
ing may be begun as soon as the pods
turn yellow.
For hay the soy bean will be used
largely on rich land where Cowpeas
are inclined to fall down and targle
The soy bean plants grow erect so
are easy handled. The yield is usu-
ally a little greater than the yield
Of cowpeas, but there is some mere
waste in feeding it. The same rate OF
seeding employed with cowpeas
should be used. For grain only a
half, bushel per acre will be neces-
sary.
Soy beans are susceptible to wilt
and nematodes. hence should rot be
crown On lands infested with either
of these. In South Georgia the crop
fails to seed quite often but always
makes a good yield of hay.

Says Glass Of Hot Water
Every Morning Before
Breakfast Will Take
OFF Fat If You Get
More Fresh Air
Be Moderate in Your Diet and Re.
duce Your Weight with Tassco

Lack of fresh air weakens the oxy-
gen-carrying power of the blood, the
liver becomes sluggish, fat accumu-
lates and the action of many of the
vital organs are hindered thereby.
The heart action becomes weak, work
is an effort and the beauty of the
figure is destroyed.
Fat put on by indoor life is I'M
healthy and if nature is not assisted
in throwing it off by increasing the
oxygen-carrying power of the blood,
a serious case of obesity may result.
When you feel that you are getting
too stout, take the matter in hand at
once. Don't wait until your figure
has become a joke and your health
ruined through carrying around a
burden of unsightly and unhealthy
fat
Spend as much time as you pos
sibly can in the open air; breathe
deeply, and 'get from the National
Drug company box of tassco, take
a glass of hot water every morning
before breakfast then take tassco al
ter each meal and at bedtime.
Weigh yourself every few days and
Keep Zip the treatment until you are
down to normal. Tassco is absolute
y harmless, is pleasant to take, helps
the digestion and is de5 sned to in
crease the oxygen-carrying power Of
the blood
Even few days treatment should
show noticeable reduction in weight
There is nothing better for obes
ity. ad,

MOTHER


She never touched, with skillful brush

And left picture that the world
might praise
Or, with inspired fingers on the key
board,
Sent down with eyes tear-stained, yet
looking upward,
With smiling almost to the vale OF

To bring little newborn soul from
God.
She never sang a song Of JOY or sad
ness
In clear, sweet tones to make us
smile or weep;
Her voice, too weak to win the

Was nnly good to hush the babe

Might lift us up and help us in the

She paused, God looked at her and

With hand outstretched, his kind
voice spoke welcome

Lamar Brings Preacher
Into the German Plot

New York, May 14-David Lamar,
widely known as the "Wolf of Wall
Street" testified today that the plans
out of which grew Labor's National
Peace council were first discussed by
aim with the Rev. Dr. Thomas c.
Hall, a New York clergyman, through
whom he met Captain Franz Rintelen
OF the German navy, who gave him
The money TO start an anti-munitions
traffic campaign. Rintclen and five
others are on trial charged with using
the council in conspiracy in 1915
to wreck the entente allies munitions
business
Lamar said he went to indianapolis
with Henry B. Martin, one of the de-
PENDANTS, after he received the Ger
mans money and that Martin got in
touch with former Representative H.
Robert Fowler and Frank Buchanan,
also defendants. Martin told him, La
mar testified, that both these men de-
nounced the munitions trust" and
that Buchanan took a very advanced
position and would go any lengths to
keep this country out of the war.
Lamar said that in his converse
tons with DR.. Hall, who, he said, was
formerly at the Union Theological
seminary here, and also a professor
at Columbia university but now is in
Germany, he outlined what he said
were his own activities in bringing
about Investigations of the New Ha-
ven railroad, ''the money trust" and
the steel trust" and his plans to at
tack the capitalistic interests controll-
ing the munitions trust"
He Endorsed my plans to get the
matter before organized labor and
farmers in order to produce such a
consensus of opinion as to bring great
pressure to bear on the president and
congress, first to embargo munitions
exports and secondly to abolish pri-
vate munitions manufacturers and to
make a government monopoly of the
industry" Lamar said eff our de-
mand was not met, it was our hope
that ultimately labor would strike.
But never by any word, act or sug-
gestion did l attempt to bring on
strikes by bribing labor leaders or
otherwise. Our fuction ended with
laying the facts before the country. y
DR.. Hall and he agreed that con-
ventions of farmers and labor dele
gates should be held, Lamar testified
and the clergymen assured him he
would be handed sum of money and
as soon as he received it he wanted
him to begin work
"A few days later I received a mes
sage from DR.. Hall to go to E. v.
Gibbons & Co., the address of which,
he gave me in New York." Lamar
said. Il went there and met Rintel-
en- who handed me check which !

closed that he hoped to go to Ger

Beans
T. X. Mediation, Professor of Horti
culture, State College. of Asri.

Beans, cowpeas and like legumi-
nous crops should be extensively
grown on the Georgia farms this
year. From ten to twenty bushels
of dried beans can be expected from an
acre of ground, and these food stuffs
will partially take the place of meat,
as beans contain a great deal of pro
,tein, This crop is easily grown and
easily stored, as the weevils can be
controlled through the simple fumi-
cation with carbon bisulphide. We
are not bean eating people. We are
however, great meat eaters, and the
present conditions existing in this coun-
try are going to necessitate the pro-
duction of food stuffs at home. We
cannot produce meats as rapidly as
they will be consumed. therefore, we
must fall back on the various legumi.
nous crops, such as beans and peas,
TO take the place of meats.
