be no difficulty in obtaining seed of
this variety from any reliable seed
house, as this crop has been extensively
grown in Kansas, Oklahoma and the
southwestern part of the United states
for many years past.
Kafir corn is not only valuable for
silage purposes, but incidently. it makes
a very good yield of grain and a fair
flour is obtained from it. The seed
can be fed in combination with corn,
velvet beans peanut and cotton seed
meal to live stock with good advantage.
1t is, of course, best to grind the seed
because of it's small character, thus in
surfing its more complete digestion and
assimilation than if il were fed whole.
silo is the best fertilization against
food shortage which the farmer can
have, and it will enable him to feed and
maintain his cattle more economically
next winter than by any other plan he
could follow.
Hts:
The Best Method of and1ing Velvet
Beams
j. b. D., Devereaux, Ca, writes What
is the relative merit of planting velvet
beans alone and with corn? Which is the
best-the Early Speckled or osceola beans?
Our experience and observation leads
US to believe that it is desirable to plant
velvet beans with corn and we would
certainly advise the average farmer to
do this. 1t is desirable that we increase
the area in beans very materially this
year. Our experience indicates that the
beans do not decrease the yield of corn
whatsoever, while, as a matter of fact,
they probably double the amount of ami
NAL food which an acre will yield. In
other words, we believe that it is rea-
III RvNVN aIe n
to fifteen bushels of velvet beans per
acre. The average yield per acre of
corn is around fifteen bushels. So when
we grow velvet beans with corn we
certainly balance up the quality of the
food an acre yields and grow along with
corn supplemental crop which can be
fed with it to the best advantage.
We would drill the velvet beans in
alongside the row of corn or drop them
in and press them into the ground with
the foot. Fdom a gallon to peck
seed are sufficient to plant an acre,
The beans come on after the corn and
climb up on the stalk and do not in
jure or lessen the yield Of the corn.
AS to the variety of seed to use, we
would advise you to plant the Extra
Early bean. This we believe to be
one of the best varieties for growth in
your section of Georgia. The seed of
this strain should mature in about four
months. The Osceola bean is compare
lively new variety. 1t is said to possess
the earliness and good qualities of some
other varieties and to yield well. 1t
has not been tested so extensively as
the Extra Early bean, however, and we
would not regard 1t as being so well
adapted for growth in your section OF
the state as the variety of bean first
mentioned.

In order to make good on its an

Last night the grounds were ab!aze

Shortage of labor was responsible
for the delay that necessitated the

opened to the public today practically
everything will have been finished.
The newest feature will be The
Whip" which was a sensation at
Coney Island last summer. In order
to have this new ride for the opening
