The SOUTHEAST Year and Now
During 1917 the farmers of the
South did a wonderful piece of work.
In the face Of an increasing price
for cotton they responded to the call
of the president Of the United States
and increased their production Of food
and feed crops, and also their pro-
duction Of livestock. In some Of the
States the increase in corn produc-
ton ran more than 80 per cent, and
the increase in Is southern States was
10 per cent, in spite of the great de-
crease in Texas, Oklahoma and Louis
lana, due to excessive drouth. The
increases in velvet beans, peanuts,
soy beans, hay, forage crops, gardens,
sugar, syrup, etc, have been phenom-
email, but not more than our people
needed, For the first year in recent
history of the South the Bureau of
Markets has been able to report that
the local demands for corn have been
met by the local supply in many sec
tions. The South has been almost
national asset, and not liability as
to food, Another year let us have no
liabilities. We must prove our worth"

THE GALLANT STAND
By Edward Bryant Gage 15)
Glenn Springs, Tenn.

Across the valley doomed the Alps,
Capped with perpetual snow;
While on the banks Of the Piave
The shattered Italians marched to
and fro.
Behind the lines were the aged,
With their dearest in front to de-
fend;
The enemy crossed the river, and
Monte Tomba they began to ascend.
Artillery flashed amid deafening
roar,
With the bursting Of shells in the
air,
The barking of machine guns, and
laundering cannons told their sto-
ry everywhere.
The mountains trembled; and brave
men fell;
The earth opened and gulped a
battery down.
Under this heavy fire or shot and
SHE'LL
The gallant men rose from the
ground
rise, We dead, and fight againw
The captain shouted as he was dy-
ing;
The guns were soon placed in posi-
ton,
Hurting proiectiles; with their col
ors flying.
The brave little band seized their
rifles,
And prepared for hand-to-hand
attack,
AS they joined the infantry as it
swept by,
And soon hurled the enemy back.

HOME GARDENS
CUT STORE BILLS
President Georgia Chamber Of Conn
merce Shows How Millions Were
Saved Last Year

Atlanta, Georgia. Especial )-"More
money was saved in 1917 through the
medium of the home garden than ever
before, the United States Department
OF Agriculture estimating that there
were fully one million new gardens
made last year." says H. G. Hastings,
President of the Southeastern Fair and
the Georgia Chamber OF Commerce,
in an interview reviewing the 1917
farming operations in the South.
Thousands upon thousands Of our
people in the South said Mr., Hast
ings, for the first time in their lives
learned to appreciate the money saw
ing power of the home garden, proper
ly planned, prepared for, planted and
kept planted during the entire sea
SON"
up to the present 1t has been very
hard to get our people to consider the
home garden seriously as a real sub
stantial factor in food production with
the consequent saving Of money that
went for food supplies at the store.
Unless we are much mistaken the
home garden will from now on be
taken as seriously as any other part
of the farm work.
"A quarter to a half acre devoted
to variety of vegetables liked by the
family can be kept going nearly the
whole year in the South and give its
owner as much as the product Of two
or three acres of cotton, even at pres
ent prices, will buy at the store. The
right kind of a garden means an
abundance of healthful food during
spring, summer and fall and an abund-
ance either canned or dried for win
ter use"
LET no one be fooled by the lies
spread abroad that the Government
is going to seize home canned goods
on closet shelves in the farm or
home. These lies are started by Ger
man agents for the express purpose Of
discouraging our people in increased
food production and saving. Few can
go to the firing line, but all can join
IN and have a part in home produc-
ton of food.
We have never seen permanent
ly prosperous farm section either in
the United States or in foreign coun-
tries that was not diversified sec
ton, and in every diversified section
the home garden has an honored and
valued place. The home garden is a
store bill cutter Of the first rank"

!, Protect the Omen Front

Poultry houses where the front is
largely made of wire netting should
have these openings covered with mus
lin, or old burlap sacks.
Where chickens have large single
combs, it is well to tack muslin or
old sacks to the roof in front of the
perches and allow the sacks to hang
down to the drop boards, thereby
making the roosting quarters much
warmer and protecting the combs
at night. Frozen combs will stop
hens laying. A hens comb will not
likely freeze in the daytime if she
is kept busy scratching for her
grain feed in six or eight inches Of
straw.

Ahnnt Seed Cnrn

The most important thing with seed
corn is to have it thoroughly dried
out before cold weather comes, and
then to keep it in dry place. The
usual winter temperature in Tonnes
see does not materially injure the
termination of dry corn. In States
to the north, where lower tempera-
lures are experienced, farmers adj
wise the storage of corn in garrets or
houses or other places where it is
not exposed to the severe weather.
If corn was thoroughly dry before
the cold weather came, no serious
loss in its power of termination may
be expected, but it would do no harm
to test it several weeks before plant
ing time.

Clean Milk

Milking should be done with clean,
dry hands.
Some type of smaIl-top milking
pail should be used.
AS soon as the milk is drawn, it
should be taken to a clean place,
efficiently strained, and Immediately
cooled and kept below so degrees
Fahrenheit as near as is practical.
If for churning, separate milkings
should be kept at this cool tempera-
ture until IL to Is hours before
churning time, when it should be
mixed, stirred thoroughly,a and brought
to temperature of about 10 degrees
Fahrenheit. Stir frequently during
the rise Of temperature.

KAISER BILL AND UNCLE sam

Good-by, America, hello France;
Hello, Kaiser, you have no chance,
For here come the troops from DEM
ocracy
To beat the stuifing out Of autocracy
Uncle Sam is after you now,
And there'll be one more wartime
row.
Just watch the savage Prussians
prance
Because the American forces are in
France.
At first they'll strike the Hindenburg
line,
Then they'll sweep them back across
the Rhine;
Back safe to Berlin" viii come a
telegram,
go, Kaiser, go! Yonder comes I'm
Gle Sam.
The Kaiser'll get excited and won't
know what to do;
He'll think Of his murder when he
gets beat black and blue;
There is nothing to the Germans but
bluff and brag
And over Berlin will soon float the
U. S. flag!
All the allied territory we will re-
store
If we have to knock the pop-eyed
Kaiser to the floorl
Goodbye, America, Hello Berlin!
Here we are ready to "dig in"
We are going to have liberty, free
for all,
And we are going to have it if Ger
many has to fa
Steam on, steam on, OF transport,
Steam on till we get to fighting
port.
The allies have already struck a stag
gering blow;
Now, Mr. William, wellIstrike you as
dead as a frow,
Your army will wither, and Berlin
will fall,
Then there will be liberty free for
all!
Look out, "Bill," for we're on your
track,
And when we get there, we'll hurl
you back.
You think you've got the best thing
ever seen;
That is your devilish under-sea sub
marine.
And you think they'll keep Uncle
Sam from France,
But you'll find it, Fritz, you have
no chance.
And if you attempt it, you'll soon
find out
That you will get the worst Of it,
no doubt.
Say, Billy, when Uncle Sam turns
his artillery loose
You had better look out, for he'll
get your goose.
1t will silence your batteries and make
you still.
That will be easy to do, old Hohen-
zollem Bill.
Yes, Brother Bill" wen show you
we're no sham,
Then the world will greet us, victo-
riOus Uncle Sam!

Hoo fnr Profit

In the feeding of hogs, use of the
self-feeder reduces work of feeding
to the minimum, fattens hogs quickly,
and saves grain.
Wastes that can be used in feeding
hogs; Corn, skim-milk, buttermilk,
whey, small potatoes, kitchen and
table scraps.
No animal will give as high returns
for dairy products consumed as the
hog.
If prices Of other things are low,
you have hogs to sell. You are not
dependent on one thing.

Consider the Hog

The hog is one of the most valu-
able and profitable animals the farm
can produce.
In colonial days hogs ran wild liv-
ing on mast and roots until of good
size. They were then taken and fat
tened. This method is used today in
some parts of Tennessee.
In time, the tendency will be for
the regions best fitted to rear animals
to increase their number.
Tennessee has (a) year-round pas
ture, (b) high corn yield, (c) mod
crate heat mot cold), (d) waste land
for pasture, (e) acorns, What bet
ter conditions could be desired?

THRESHERMEN MEETING

A meeting was held at Libertyville, July 7th,
for the purpose Of discussing the grain thresh-
ing situation relative to the prevention of un-
necessary losses, inspection, uniform prices and
rendering official reports. About seventy-five
threshermen and farmers were present when
Food Administrator Gridley called the meeting
to order
A motion was passed to the effect that uni
form price of $500 per day and board be paid
Tor single hands at harvest and threshing time
because of the fact that day s work in the field
is necessarily short in a dairy district
There was wide variation in the valuation
placed upon threshing equipment by the thresh-
ermen present, but most agreed that about
$500 would be an average
The average season run was placed at Is to
80 days and this probably will not vary much
this season from the normal because of the fact
that there are several new machines operating
