Irrigation.

When, during prolonged dry spells, the
plants give evidence of suffering because
of the lack of moisture, water must, if
possible, be supplied artificially, Where
a supply of piped water is at hand, per
haps the most usual method of irrigation
is by sprinkling with hose. If sprinkl-
ing is practiced it should be done late in
the afternoon 1t is not sufficient merely
to dampen the surface; thorough wet
ting should be given. A more satisfac-
tory and more economical method of irri-
cation, however, is to open small burrows
between the rows of growing plants and
to supply water in these bitches from
hose or pipe. Several hours after the
water has soaked in, the dry earth should
be drawn back into place.

Garden Cultivation.
Never Permit Soil to Become Baked or to
Form Crust

| The Importance of thorough and con-
tinuous cultivation in the home vegetable
garden is pointed out in new Farmers
Bulletin of the United States Department
of Agriculture, No 818, "The Small Veg
etable Garden" After the seeds have
sprouted or after the plants have been set
in their permanent location, continued
/ cultivation becomes necessary.
The gardener should never permit the
surface of the soil to become baked or
even to form an appreciate crust. Con-
slant stirring with hand tools or a wheel
cultivator should be practiced between
the rows and about the plants Such a
stirring permits the air to penetrate the
SOIL where it facilitates chemical action
and bacterial activity, destroys weeds
which otherwise would utilize large
amounts of plant food, and, finally, COIL
serves the moisture supply. The rake is
perhaps the gardener S most valuable tool
in cultivating. This can be passed back
ward and forward over the ground until
it is in an open, mellow condition. Where
vegetables grow closely in the rows it Of
ten will be necessary to supplement the
cultivation by handwriting. Small i'm
plements are made for this purpose, and
may be purchased cheaply 1t is we'll also
in some cases to pull up weeds by hand,
especially where they grow closely about
the stalks of the garden plants.
Stirring the Soil After Rains.
Just as the gardener should be careful
In early spring not to dig the ground
when the soil is too moist, so he should be
careful later in the season not to cult
vate too soon after rains The stirring
of very muddy soil ''puddles' it into
compact, cement-like mass in which the
plant food is securely locked The gar
den will require attention, however, as
soon as the excess moisture from a rain
has soaked in or partially cvaporated.
Unless the ground is stirred at this time a
crust will form almost inevitably. Such
crust, besides restricting the plants,
prevents the access of air, and also facil-
itates the loss of moisture through evap-

OLD JOHN BARLEYCORN
GIVEN ANOTHER KNOCKOUT
Court Holds Law May Limit
Liquor One Can Have
on Hand

The Georgia supreme court, in de-
cison handed down Saturday, holds that
the state prohibition law. limiting the
amount Of liquor person may nave on
hand, is constitutional and also holds
that any quantity of liquor IL excess o.
the limited amount though the holder
may have possessed it before May ],
when the law became operative, may be
seized by the state authorities and de-
stroyed.
The decision was the first of it's kind
announced by the Georgia supreme court
since the new prohibition laws went into
effect. The decision was based on APP
peals from the Richmond superior court
at Augusta by Pat c. Carr, Matthew
Delaney, T.. NJ. Green and \. A. Hett Jr.
The original cases grew out of raids
made by the Augusta police on the prop
critics of the four men, when, in each in
stance, large quantities of liquors were
seized and are being held by the sheriff.
According to dispatches from Augusta
Saturday night, Solicitor Curry, of the
city court, will apply to Judge Black of
that court, for another order to destroy
the liquor as soon as the remittur from
the supreme court is transmitted to the
Richmond superior court clerk.
1t is said the liquor is valued at from
$4,000 TO $4,000, and that the county
of"Richmond has expended almost $1,000
in hiring day and night guards to keep
constant vigil over it,

American Girl Aviator
Gets Real Shower of
Diamonds From Jap:

TOXIC. Japan, Feb. 24.-Miss Kath-
crime Stinson, the American girl aviator,
is an object of wonder in the mikado's
empire. All Japan is making obeisance
to this fearless young woman who has
thrilled thousands of Orientals with her
daring air flights.
When she arrived here to begin her
tour of Japanese cities, she was re-
ceived with establishment. The thought
of a mere girl guiding an aeroplane
through dips and loops in the air was
too much for the Oriental mind to
grasp.
But she made the flights and received
a wonderful ovation after each appear
ance. Not only that, she accomplished
the emancipation of the Japanese wom-
en-. The time-old custom that women
in this country must remain in the
background has been broken since Miss
Stinson has arrived.
The government mas given permits
sion for the establishment of a Japa-
nese school for women aviators and
Miss Stinson will be the first tnstruc-
tor.
During her visit here those of high and
low degree have showered her with
compliments and presents. Various gifts
of diamonds and precious stones she
has received total many thousands of
dollars.
Miss Stinson wears the costume of
the japanese women when making
flights.
She has appeared in Toxic, Noygoa,
Kobe. Osaka and other cities. She will
fly in Shanghai, Hongkong, Manila and
Honolulu on her present tour.

the air and dropped them safely in a
rock quarry three hundred yards away
Two other negroes were hurt, Will
liam johnson, leg broken, and Annie
Berry, slightly cut about the head.
The white people injured were / H.

TAe cyclone broke without WarnlnS,
hurting suddenly out of a black cloud
that hung in the west. Within i've
minutes it had swept through the town
and spent itself on the side of Pine
mountain, three miles away. 1t cut a
path about 100 yards wide through the

through Iithonia, with the result that

was not touched, while the Terrell house,
few yards further on, caught the full
force of the tornado as it came down
to earth again. The roof of Plunkett S
store was blown off while Mr.. Plunkett,
his wife and drayman, were inside. They
were not hurt; but canned goods, vege-
tables and other stock were scattered for
three miles. l.. a. Brooks and his fam
iIy had n similar experience. The roof

A whole barrel of seed, of every va

rived at the city hall Saturday and is
being distributed by Frank Smith, the
city tax collector. The following is
the verse, which must have appealed to
the sentiments of the congressman:

OF 'bone-dry laws. of the U-boat raids.
OF judges. leaks and kings.
"Of cabbages and beets and beans.
Of radishes and squash;

OF onions. too. by gosh.
"Of all the herbs and all the bulbs
That ever have been known,
OF all the plants and grass and shrubs
That ever have been grown.

Wen call on William Schley
To send us down a bunch of seeds,
He'll DO it, or he'll try
Wen SOW them in the garden,
In the front yard and the back;
Wen beg the srocers' pardon
If our trade with them grows slack.
