como TO the Farm Service Bureau
about methods Of corn culture it is
considered advisable to recommend the
Williamson method to farmers in the
coastal region or those who have sandy
loan soils. The following is an out
line Of tho method in Mr.. Williamson's
own words:
Break the land broadcast during the
winter, using two horse plow or,
better, a disc plow. Bed with turn
plow si1-foot rows, leaving a nve-inch
balk. When ready to plant, break
this out with q scooter. Plow deeply
in the bottom Of this furrow, using a
Dixie with wing taken of. Ridge then
on this furrow with same plow still
going deep. Run the corn planter on
this ridge, dropping one grain every
hve or six inches.
Plant early. as soon as frost dan
ger is past. Early planting is espe-
cially needful on very rich lands
where stalks can not otherwise be
kept from growing too large.
"Give the first working with q har-
row or any plow that will not cover
the plant. For second working use
ten or twelve inch sweep. Corn should
not be worked again until the growth
has been so retarded, and the stalk
so hardened that it will never grow
too large. This is the most difficult
point in the whole process Expert
ence and Judgment are required to
know Just how much the stalk should
be stunted, and plenty Of nerve is re-
quired to hold back your corn when
your neighbors, who fertilized at plant
ing time and cultivated rapidly, have
corn twice the size Of yours.
when you are convinced that your
corn has been sufficiently humiliated,
you may begin to make the ear. The

A storm came up, and two of

asleep in the bottom of the boat.
The two talked over what they

mated; the other to be sent home

Then they asked the one IN

wish was, and when he "came

Saw-Ciety

One of the most foolish, redic
ulous, absurd, nonsensical things
in this country of jokes is the
little bunch OF well.to do loafers
in the land that is called "Socl
ety." or as Sam Jones used to
call it saw. ciety." 1t is COM
posed of the few folks who can
live without work, and who
look upon work as being a dis.
grace. They are the swells, if
you please, that like leeches are
living off of the labor of others
but who are too good 10 do
anything that could possibly be
Of any use.
Up in Washington recently
the name of a prominent nurse
was presented for membership
in one of the Saw ciety Clubs"
and it raised row in the leeches'
camp. Why, the idea of letting
a woman who did any kind of
work join this club of swell
loafers! Horrible! Why she
would defile the whole club of
sweet scented swells.
And it isn't only in Washing
tons society clubs that people
who work are ruled out from
High Sawciety," Even in any
little one-horse town of only a
few thousand inhabitants there
are usually a few half. strain
swells that stick up their little
empty knots high in the air and
strut like peacOcks and will not
associate with ordinary mortals.
1t is really laughable to see how
quick they will drop one of their
crowd if they defiIe themselves
by gong to work.

has been divided, cover with turn
plow, SOW peas. and break out This

plenty of dirt around your stalk. This
should be from June 10th to 20th. un.
less the season is very late. and corn
should be hardly punching for tassel
Lay by early More corn II ruined
BY late blowing than by lack Of plow-
ing. This is when the ear Is hurt
"I!he stalks thus raised are very
small, and do not require anything
like the moisture even in proportion
to size than is necessary for large,
sappy stalks. They may, therefore, be
left thicker in the row. Large stalks
can not make large yields except with
extremely favorable seasons, for they
cannot stand q lack of moisture. Corn
raised by this method should not be
over seven feet high, and the ear
should be near the ground"
For Piedmont Section.
For the Piedmont section the WI.
Hanson Plan can not be closely fol-
lowed but must be modified Half Of
the fertilizer should be applied before
planting. The other half should be
applied not later than when corn Is
knee high. The nitrate Of soda should
then be applied when the corn is waist
high.
Raise Corn As War Measure
In response to the call for food SUP:
plies in view OF war conditions, tho
Southern farmer should plant as large
crop Of corn as possible. He should
fertilize literally and cultivate thor.
oughly SO that maximum crops may
be produced. 1t is recommended that
from sec to 900 pounds Of fertilizer be
applied on Piedmont soils and from
800 to 1000 to coastal plain soils.

The Fastest Thing on Earth

Wall Street Journal.
The highest speed ever trav-
eled by a man on the face OF
the earth-nearly 143 miles an
hour-was made bv a racing
automobile on the great ex-
panse of level sale deposits in
Utah. The automobile run was
made by famous racing motor
ist and the best time for one
mile was 25.2 seconds, which is
equal to 1925 miles an hour, a
triffle better than the best pre-
ceeding record, made on the
beach at Daytona, Fla, in April,
1911. This is the highest speed
ever travelled by man on the
face of the earth. The best
speed ever made by a vehicle
running on rails was that record
ed in the Berlin.Zossen test OF
electric cars. in 1908, when
rate of 1905 miles an hour was
made.
The crystallized salt in this
Utah bed makes hard and
absolutely level surface and it is
said that even in the hottest
weather it does not heat The tires
of automobiles. The salt beds
are Is miles long and eight
miles wide. The estimated
depth. in the middle, is II TO Is
feet. The salt is white and
averages SO per cent pure. In
racing over the salt beds the
motorist has an unusual feeling
of security because of the en-
tire absence of distractions.

Teutons Fight With Great Ten
acity, but at Appalling
Cost

From a staff correspondent OF
the Associate d Press, with Brit
ish armies in France, May g..
Via Lordon.-While the fight
ing for the LAST fortnight has
wrought comparatively little
change geographically along the
British front, it has. as matter
of fact. been ofalmost as great
importance as any during the
entire war. 1t has compelled
the Germans to throw in such
vast numbers Of reserves that
comparatively few of the fifth
or more fresh divisions, assigned
to the western front this year by
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg,
remained unscorced by the
flames of the French and British
offensive battles. In view of
this, it is small wonder that The
press reports from Petrograd as
sert that German divisions have
been withdrawn from the Rus
sian front and started for France.
There is no denying that since
the British Easter Monday Of
fensive took them by surprise
and drove them from some of
their most formidable positions,
the Germans have fought with
great tcnaCity and stubbornness,
but at what cost they alone can
correctly reckon. They have
endeavoTcd to meet the Entente
Allied superiority in artillery by
sheer weight OF men, which has
meant a material deepening of
their fortified zone. Thus, when
one line Of men has been swept
away. there is another and yet
another. How long such 1ac
tics can continue, how long the
German soldiers can endure the
whitening blast of artillery which
is ever upon them, is purely a
matter of conjecture.
German military writers have
been referring Of late to the
Hindenburg line as a living,
mobile wall. which by means of
its various switch lines can bend
backward and forward as if
moving on SO many hinges.
Now, however, the men of the
living wall are fighting behind
great barriers of their dead.
The Germans seem to be car,
rying out their defensive battles
with the same unShakable belief
in the power of mass that char
acterized their first onslaught
upon the forts on the Belgian
frontier. and, later, their futile
offensive against Verdun.
The British assaulling lines in
the recent fighting. thanks to
the ov,rw helming weight of the
artillery behlcd them, have moth
ing live the strength of the Ger
man defending troops. Similar
ly, the Germans have delivered
their counter-altack with forces
often outnumbering threefold
the British holding positions up
on which the attacks were di
rected. The Germans had to
make these counter attacks
across the open, under the very
eyes of the British field guns
and The losses entailed have
been vlsibly enormous.
1t is not possible to visit a
battery in Arras sector without
hearing of the wonderful shoot
ing they have had of late.
There has been nothing like it
since the war began. so far as
the British are concerned, and
the khaki gunners feel that they
are paving off many old SEQ, es

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF
GOD SERMON THEME

Evangelist Dunlops theme last
night at Hope Presbyterian church
was THE Righteousness of God. ="
Like his truth and virtues this at
tribute OF God must be active, and
1t reaches out to inclose humanity
he said. The story OF how God, a
righteous holy being. makes us sin
full men righteous and holy is the
burden of the gospel God, who is
just and a righteous judge, cannot
pass over the sins of men and main
tain his honor, holiness, justice, and
righteousness. Sin, by the very ma
ture of God. must be punished. SO
we see the necessity of Christ be-
ing the Lamb of God which bear
eth away the sin OF the world
What is justification? It is an
act Of Gods free grace. whereby he
pardOns all our sins and accepts US
as righteous in his sight only for the
righteousness of Christ imputed TO us
and received by faith alone"
