COMPARISON OF OPEN DITCH AND TILE FOR
]. The Draining OF FARM LANDS IN GEORGIA
BY Prof. G. A. crabb, College Of Agriculture

1here are two principal methods for
the draining of farm lands : open
ultcnes and tile drains. Each of
tnese methods has it's advantages and
disadvantages. The principal advan-
tase OF the open ditch is the low cost
OF construction and the quickness with
which it takes away surface water.
Inc open ditch will remove large
amounts OF surface water in mini
mum time and is efficient even where
tnere IS minimum fall. The princi-
pal disadvantage of the open ditch is
tne cost Of keeping it in a good con-
hltlon The open ditch wastes a great
zeal OF land and binders the cultiva-
ZION OF fields. Tile drains are more
expensive of construction than open
oltches, but are much more permanent
an that when they are carefully laid
they require no further attention.
While the initial cost is greater than
that of open bitches, the upkeep is
much lower
Each OF these drains has its particu,
lar use. The open ditch is used to
greatest advantage in low fiat lands
fhat have only minimum fall and
that have large amounts of water IN
oe removed. They are to be recon-
mended especially in swamp lands
and those lands which have not vet
been put into cultivation. Tile drains
are to be recommended for all lands
that are in cultivation where a sniff
cient amount of fall can be obtained
TO make them efficient.
The methods that are to be used
oy the farmer in draining his land de.
pend upon a number of conditions
He must take into account the mum.
Der or acres that are in the area to
be drained, the surface slope of the
land, the character of the soil and
subsoil, the available outlet and the
amount of money that is available.

ter are to be removed quickly, it is
essential that we have a free outlet,
and in many cases it is necessary to
use the open ditch as an outlet for
system Of tiles.
The character Of the soil and sub
soil will determine the method and
frequency of drains in order that the
excess water may be entirely remov-
ed. Those soils which have a loose
surface soil will absorb the excess
rainfall very quickly. If the subsoil,
however, is compact and fine grained,
the passage Of this water will be ex-
tremely slow, and it will be necessary
to lay the tiles more closely than in
soils that are Of a more open struc-
tu-e. AS a rule, one may say that
the frequency and depth of tiles will
be governed by the fineness of the
texture and the compactness of the

Of various countries and nationalities
are quite numerous and have their
own individual fashion almost charac-

clay pipe is gay in color and for few

This pipe is usually large, with a big

FULTON COUNTY HAS
OVER 10000 AUTOMOBILES

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. l0.-The state of
Georgia in 1917 issued licenses to
more than 10000 automobiles of
which about 10000 were licensed in
Fulton county. The revenue of the
state from this one source was $210,-
900.
In 1918 the state expects to issue
licenses to more than 10000 cars, and
license tags have been ordered up to
that number. 1t is expected that
Fulton county's quota will run from
$1,000 to $4,000.
Georgia farmers in 1917 enjoyed the
greatest prosperity in the history of
the state, and are buying automobiles
in greater numbers than ever before.

COLORED GENT HAD 6 WIVES

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 10.-Arraigned
before Judge Johnson in recorders
court in this city on charge of fail
ing to provide for the support of his
wife, who had him arrested because
he disappeared when the cold wave
struck and left her stranded without
any coal, William Holt, colored, in
married to six different wives in
comparatively few years, and had
about reached the point where he
couldn't undertake to assure any of
them a support.
Recorder Johnson declared that any
man, white or colored, who had six
wives in these parlous times, with the
cost Of living out of sight, is entitled
to sympathy and not punishment, so
he dismissed the negro without a fine.

Rebecca and her mother were pro-
