INCREASED COST
Of CITY FEEDING

It cost Is 1-2 cents each for the
14O9 meals which were served at the
police station to prisoners during the
past month, according to report
which has been filed with the police
commissioner by Clerk Welsh, of the
police department. The total cost
for the month was given at S189.47.
This is said to have been the highest
average per meal yet reported to the
commissioner, and the high cost of
foodstuffs was the main reason for
the decidedly noticeable increase.
There were 492 arrests during the
past month, the report also shows,
and the fines imposed amounted to
$2.404, of which more than fifty
per cent was reported collected The
balance was either worked out or
suspended.

APPEAL MADE To
+ FLORIDA PEOPLE
TO CONSERVE COAL

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 13.-The
United States in its organization to
combat the Internal war machine OF
Germany, and in its determination 70
achieve as early as possible, the vic
tory over Prussianism, the govern
ment authorities are organizing to
conserve every necessity for the
army.
The Food Conservation propaganda
got an early start, with Herbert c.
Hoover at the head and great good
has already been accomplished. The
Food Administrator for Florida is
Braxton Beacham, of Orlando, who
has met with hearty cooperation all
over the state, The government re-
CARDS food conservation as absolutely
necessary to win this war, but none
the less so than fuel conservation.
For the latter reason it has organ
fuel with H. A. Garfield as the head
and with an administrator for every
state in the Union.
Arthur T. Williams, of Jackson
vile, has been chosen the fuel adj
ministrator for Florida, and with an
advisory committee and local commit
tees. he is getting in touch with tins
conditions throughout the state.
The war needs coal for munitions,
for transportation and practically all
supplies. To be deprived of coal the
government could not successfully
conduct the war. While there is an
acknowledged increase in production.
there is an increased demand so
much larger that it is imperative that
a thorough organization be perfect
ed whereby there will be proper dis
trihution and proper prices.
Special attention generally should
be given to waste. and in this all cit
liens can aid. Millions of tons of
coal have been yearly wasted in the
United States because coal has been
abundant. AS considerable food
found its way to garbage cans. so
has coal been heaped upon fires and
furnaces which was more than neces-
sary.
By proper conservation. the gov
eminent hopes that the requirements
of the war will be met, and the COM
fort of homes cared for without in
reference with varied industries
which are classed as non-essestial in
the war, and which has stimulated
many linas of commerce. However,
if it becomes necess- ry, these nom
essential industries must give way to
the needs of the war.
Rules and regulations of the Ma
tional Fuel Administration are firm.
There will be no determinations

The duty is plain alike to the deal
ers and the consumers, and it calls
for the best patriotism of the Amer
lean people.
Unless methods of using coal are
different than those that prevailed
in times of peace there would be a
disastrous shortage in coal. The
fuel administration is determined to
bring about the conditions so para
mount in the great struggle now on.
Fuel Administrator Williams de-

sires the cooperation Of all Flori-
dams, and informs the people of
Florida that complaints in this state
must not be sent to Washington but
filed with him.
The various civic, religious and
other organizations in every COM
munity in Florida which has already
performed such yeoman service to
the country are urged to take up the
question of coal conservation and dis
cuss it.at their meetings. There must
be no waste in coal. It is the pa
triotic duty of all TO do everything
possible to prevent a coal shortage.
We have been impressed that we can
not win the war without food. That
is true. It is equally true that we
cannot win without coal.

FAVOR PRACTICE OF
10 COMMANDMENTS
Few General Rules of Procedure
Deduced From Mass of A.
ricuIturaI Teachings.

DR.. Seamon A. Knapp deduced from
the mass of agricultural teachings a
few general rules of procedure. They
are called 'The Ten Commandments
of agriculture" by the practice of
which a man may be a good farmer
in any state without being a graduate
from q college of agriculture. The
commandments are as follows:
/. Prepare a deep and thoroughly
pulverized seeded, well drained;
break in the fall to the depth Of s, 10
or IL inches, according to the soil,
with implements that will not bring
too much of the subsoil to the surface;
(the foregoing depths should be reach
ed gradually.
2. Use seed of the best variety, in
diligently selected and carefully
stored.
8. In cultivated crops, give the
rows and the plants in the rows
space suited to the plant, the soil and
the climate.
4. Use intensive tillage during the
growing period of the crops.
5. Secure high content of humus
In the use Of legumes, barnyard ma
nure, farm refuse, and commercial fer
tilizers.
6. Carry out a systematic crop ro-
tation with a winter cover crop on
southern farms.
z. Accomplish more work in day
by using more horse power and better
s. Increase the farm stock to the |
extent of Ut .izinl Ill the waste prod |
ucts and Idle lands of the farm.
8. Produce all the food required |
for the men and animals on the farm.
10. Keep an account Of ench farm
product, In order to know FROM which
the gain or loss arises Clemson Col

SOWING ALFALFA ON
Titled SOILS
Seeded Should Be Prepared
Year or Two Before Planting
Pillow Early and Deep.

By PROF. M. A. BEESON, Oklahoma A
and M. College, Stillwater.)
In preparing the seeded for alfalfa
you should begin year or two before
you wish to seed by planting a Gull
tivated crop, keeping the ground well
cultivated and free from weeds. Corn
Is good crop to precede alfalfa.
The critical period of alfalfa is the
first six weeks of the life of the plant.
The ground should be plowed early
and deep. 1t should be free from
weeds and as free as possible from
weed seed. 1t should be well titled,
but firm up to the surface when seed
ed. Subpacking with a disk harrow
with disks set straight is an excellent
practice. Fall seeding in September
without nurse crop is considered the
surest method to follow. However, If
there is not q favorable season and
sufficient moisture in the fall, you may
SOW at corn planting time in the
spring.
From 10 to Is pounds of seed per
acre is ample if the seed is clean and
strong. When it is sown with a grain
drill attachment on well prepared seed
bed, and when sown carefully and not
too deep, from ten to twelve pounds of
seed is quite sufficient. The seed is
small and does not need to be sown
too deep, just SO you get it into the
moist dirt.
