Row TO START AN Alfalfa
PATCH


l. NJ. w, Mt. Berry, Ga, writes: / am
interested IN growing alfalfa and would be
glad to receive ali the Information you can
give me on this subject.
Alfalfa can be grown with a con-
siderable degree OF success in Georgia
on land which has been properly pre-
pared ana fertIlized. We have been
raising IL on the college farm for some
years past We have areas OF land here
CT which we have grown alfalfa for
several years and it has yielded more
imam thirty tons of cured hay up to
the present time by actual weight. This
figure was obtained by weighing the
product OF the land carefully and does
not represent an estimate. Some of
the land which has been in alfalfa
several years still presents a good stand
ana we will probably harvest from these
areas this year an average of five tons
OF hay per acre.
To establish this alfalfa we proceeded
as follows: First of all, the land was
broken 20 a good depth and thoroughly
SUBSIDIZED 1t was then lined at the
rate of two tons per acre. In some
instances as much as four tons of lime
were used, however. When as heavy
an application as this was made two
tons of the lime were put on the LAND
before it was plowed and turned under,
the remaining two tons being scattered
over the surface of the ground and har-
rowed in. Cowpeas were then planted.
When they reached condition In which
they could be cut and cured as hay
70 advantage they were plowed under
and the land was Immediately rolled
and narrowed and handled as a fallow
for thirty 10 sixty days on some of
these acres we applied several tons of
well-rotted yard manure. Before the
alfalfa was seeded we put on a mixture
of 500 to 500 pounds of a formula con-
tanning about per cent nitrogen, 10
per cent phosphoric acid and to
per cent potash. Potash cannot. of
course, be obtained now but wood ashes
could be used in its place. These should
not be mixed with the fertilizer but
scattered broadcast over the land a..
the rate, say of a ton per acre, and
narrowed in. The alfalfa was then
seeded broadcast or with a seed dis
tributor about October LIST to the 18th
and covered into the soil with a weeder.
We used about fifteen pounds of clean
western seed. A good stand was OBJ
tanned and the crop was cut for hay
the next spring. We have not grazed
our alfalfa to any appreciable extent
We consider it more valuable for hay
productIO1.
We have had young alfalfa Killed out
several times by severe freezes which
occurred early in the fall 1t is a
rather difficult crop to establish but
when once established It will grow well
in this state and prove very profitable.
l. produces a very superior quality or
hay and will maintain itself success
fully on our land for several years.

DO ONACKER' S
HAM, BOILED,
S LBS SHORT
WEIGHED IA POUNDS BEFORE
s. COOKING, AND NOW He THINKS
RESTAURANT PRICES or 81 PER
POUND NOT ExoRBITANT

Ham will be served for Sunday din
ner at the home of County Food Ad-
ministrator C. s. Bonacker today. but
Mr. Bonacker will not eat it with the
zest he had expected too.
The ham which will be served was
carefully weighed before and after
boiling and Mr.. Bonacker is now con-
vinced that Pensacola cafe roprietors
are justified in charging at the rate
of 81 per pound for the boiled meat.
The Bonacker ham was found to have
shrunk 33 1-3 in weight in the process
of cooking.
Restaurant men advanced this loss
as an explanation for the high cost OF
boiled meat, believed, by Mr. Bonacker
to be exorbitant. He investigated the
charges, after complaints had been re-
ceived.
The county food administrator admits
that if prices of boiled ham are low
cred in Pensacola it will have to come
down from other causes than excessive
charges. He further admits that his
experiment in boiling the meat leaves
him with no come back like Jim in
Huckleberry Finn, whom Mark Twain
characterized as "Corked and had to
take a back seat"
Seeing is believing, Mr.. Bonacker adj
mits. Doubling that it could be posi-
BILE that a ham would shrink to that
extent and that this loss and the nec~
essity of trimming the ham Of skin
and bone made il necessary to charge
81 per pound for the meat at re-
tail. the food administrators determined
to find out for himself. The expert
ment followed and the 14-pound ham
which was boiled at the Bonacker
home weighed 8 pounds after cooking,
with the bones and skin yet to be re-
moved.
Anyone who can show Mr. Bona cker
a way TO lower the retail prices of
boiled ham in Pensacola. will be well
coined by the food regulator.

five Americans, including all consular
officers except Consul General Poole,
all the personnel of the Y. NJ. C. A.
and Y. w. C. A. representatives of
the American Bank and a number os
private citizens left Moscow for Pet
rograd on a special train the evening
of Aug. 26. American interests had
been turned over to the Swedish con-
sulate..
With the Americans was the Italian
military mission. party of II per-
sons. This news, transmitted today
through the Swedish government did
not confirm recent reports from Ger
man sources that the last of the entente
Representatives had left Moscow. and
it is thought here that the British and
French consular officers probably still
are detained.
In belated dispatches received today
from Mr.. Poole himself, the last
dated Aug. 26, the consul general re-
iterated his Intention OF remaining in
Moscow to give moral suppot to his
British and French colleagues, held by
the Bolshevik government.
The Swedish government also advised
that passports OF the Americans and
others who had left Moscow had been
advised to leave Russia and that per-
mission from the Finnish government
to pass through Finland would be
awaited at Petrograd This permission
already has been authorized.

isfactorily.
Gen, March said the latest figures on

will leave next week for camp.
The gifts are just what Mr.. Helm

were presented to him by fellow EN-

The most serious stortage OF school

Of the county require and designations
are coming in so fast that Mr. Edwards
expects the shortage to reach at least
40 by Sept 30. when most of the schools
open.
Teachers who have been hired have
resigned in such numbers, and there
are so few applicants for the places,
that no remedy is in sight. 1t is en-
tirely possible that many of the schools
of the county will not be opend on
time this year and it may be necessary
that some remain closed throughout
the season, owing to the shortage or

not been able to secue employment
they want elsewhere VIII be avail

nlits this is only possibility. A
meeting Of the board of education is
to be called soon to consider the
shortage.
The cause of the designations is be-
lieved to be the many positions Of
fered men and women with the quail
fications of a teacher, which give more
remuneration than it is possible to
pay here Little trouble has been eX-
perienced in getting teachers for the
city schools, but there is dearth OF
applications for the places in the

An interesting sidelight to the local
shortage is the same condition OBJ
