THE PROGRAM FOR FOOD SAVING

Something like ten million American
women have signed the food pledge
cards and so have undertaken through
the exercise of economy in the home
to help win the war. This is a very
wonderful army which has been assem-
bled, and that they will accomplish
something worth while is a self-evident
fact TO every one acquainted with the
energy. the efficiency and the deter
mination of American womanhood.
While this is true. thousands Of those
who have signed the pledge cards are
not quite clear in their own minds as
TO what they are expected to undertake
and how to proceed to accomplish the
end the food administration has in view.
On this account it seems proper to review
in a somewhat brief manner the latest
advice and instructions which have been
issued on the subject of food conserva-
tion.
To begin with. we are expected to
have one wheatless day each week and
one wheatless meal each day. BY this
is meant that no wheat will be used
in the preparation of any of the breads
eaten at the wheatless meal or on the
wheatless day. 1t is very important
10 get this matter clearly in mind,
because a lot of people imagine that If
they do not eat white bread that 1t is
all right 10 use whole wheat or STa-
nam bread. Rolls. of course, are not tc
be used in any form. This same ad-
vice applies to the wheatless day. In
Ordn. that every one may have def
mite objective to work towards, II
is advised that Wednesday may be re-
garded as the wheatless day. If il is
known that bread will not be used on
Wednesday, the baker knows better how
to organize his work and so effects
saving in white bread. The merchant
knows that on that particular day, or
the day before, he will be expected to
have on hand a plentiful supply of sub
stitutes for weat flour. These may
consist of oatmeal, barley meal, rye
flour. cornmeal, buckwheat flour and
rice. To say that il entails a sacrifice,
therefore, to have a wheatless day each
week is without foundation. In Amer
lea we have several cereals which we
can substitute satisfactorily for wheat.
Across the waters their supply and
variety are much more restricted
than ours. We can be equally well
nourished and fed on just as palatable
and desirable food, If We substitute
the other cereals mentioned. for wheat
as IL we ate ourselves to repletion on
that particular product. Those who

NEW YORK, Jan 16-(Summay of
European Cables. while German lead
ers are undecided as to what course to
pursue in the peace negotiations with
Russia, the British Labor party has is
sued message to the Russian people,

Although the Russo-German peace ne

Jobsor Calls On
All Leaders To
Help Farmers

Realizing that the time is at hand Ior
the farmers of this country to set their
hands to the big task of raising the
greatest crop ever produced, John B..
Jobson, expounder of the Common Sense
System of Deep Flowing and inventor of
the remarkable JObson pillow, makes a di-
rect appeal to public officials and lead
ing farmers everywhere 20 help in the
big movement to put in more effective
methods that will enable every worker
to produce a bigger crop with less Ia
Dor and expense.
ITS now or never" says Mr. Job
son, for the deep blowing season is
right on us. We're straining every
nerve to place the benefits of our Sys-
tenn on 100. 900 farms in ample time to
produce millions of extra bushels; but
with the help of farm demonstrators and
thinking men all over the South we can
and will double this large figure.
I'm many sections of the South, coun-
~ and even state officials are deeply in
terested in the work, and they are pro-
ducing big results. There is no possible
shadow of doubt about the new deep
Filling plow being the one implement
that meets the critical need of the hour.
No thinking man will doubt this when
lie has investigated and learned what
practical farmers and experimental ag-
the little percussion cap, it has revolu
-ionized methods in it's field.
but the question is, how to get this
all over the country in the quickest pos
sibe time. Everybody must get busy
and help
Mr.. Jobson appeals to the good judg
ment and patriotism of every man in the
South, and he says to tell any farmer in
this entire section that he can not af-
ford to begin his spring blowing without
making inquiry into the Jobson System.
If any farmer in the whole country
has failed to get full information about
the Jobson System, let him write to p.
0. Box 672 Atlanta, Ga. and Mr.. job
son will see to it personally that a free
booklet is sent Retail dealers almost
everywhere are active in this work. Ask
your merchant about it, Tell him to
snow you Jobson Plow and ask him
for some Jobson System literature.

pounds The larger figures represent the
maximum amounts and the smaller fig
ures robably fair average. The value
of this material for fertilizing purposes
would depend much on the character of
the bedding with which it is admixed.
1t is, of course, very good form of fer
tilizer If it can be purchased at rea-
sonable price. Like most yard manures,
1t is not unusually rich in plant food
and is particularly deficient in phos-
phoric acid. 1t should, therefore, be
used at the rate of two tons and up
wards per acre, depending on the nature
of the crops to be grown and the char
acter of the land to which it is to be
applied. 1t should be used in connection
with a considerable amount of phos-
phoric acid in order that it may be bal
anced up and so brought into a proper
equilibrium in order to furnish the nee
essary constituents required by growing
crops.
One could not tell from the examina-
ton of a sample of either of these ma
terials by the eye as to their fertilizing
value. The only way to purchase either
one is on the basis of a guarantee,
which you can no doubt obtain either di-
rectly from the handlers of this mater
ial or through the agency of your state
department Of agriculture. Presumably
you have a fertilizer inspection system
in Florida.

ern states. on this account work was
commenced at this institution several
years ago looking toward the develop
ment of a strain that would be more
resistant to this disease. Considerable
progress was made in this direction
and the variety known as Sunbeam was
developed. 1t has now been quite eN-
tensively cultivated in Georgia and has
proven quite satisfactory not only as
a variety of cotton suited to general
cultivation, but on account of it's very
considerable ability to resist anthrax
nose. We think it desirable for you to
secure one of the better selected strain
of this variety. We think you will find
it quite satisfactory for growth under
your conditions. 1t is a reasonably early
sort, possesses a good quality Of fiber
and yields a very satisfactory percent

good quality. In yield 1t has compared
quite favorably with such other va
rieties we have tested and during sew

Dried blood is an important carrier Of
nitrogen. It's color varies from red to
black, depending on the temperature at
which it is dried. The bright red blood
IS generally considered to be of more
value for fertilizing purposes than
the dark blood
Blood contains from Is to Is per cent
of nitrogen. The black dried blood var
les greatly in composition, the percent
age of the foregoing element varios
from six to twelve. The dark blood
may contain as much as 8 to per cent
of phosphoric acid. For field crops the
dark blood would probably be as SER
viceable as any kind you could purchase.
For truck crops it is probably desirable
to use light colored.
l would say that goat and sheep man
ure are very much the same in compo-
sition, 1t would vary, of course, in
composition according to the age and
condition of the animal producing it and
the character of feed used in the daily
ration. Ordinarily goat manure would
probably contain from twelve to eight
cen pounds of nitrogen, five to seven
pounds of phosporic acid, and thirteen
to nineteen pounds of potash per 100

mixer, but at times she has something like
indigestion. 1t takes her appetite and
into a high fever. Can you tell me what
will prevent these spells?
Evidently, from what you say, your
COW is suffering from some form of in
digestion. This may be due to the char
acter of the food you are giving her or
to some organic trouble. The chances
are it is caused by the use of an inn
proper ration. If you are feeding hulls
and cottonseed meal I am sure you are
not combining them properly, or you are
overlooking. When these materials
are used as food for a COW she should
be allowed only one pound of meal to
five pounds of hulls. Under no circum-
stances should you feed her over four
or five pounds of meal a day For a
small COW four pounds is enough. This
is not a well constituted ration for
cows at best. In other words, you
should provide some succulent feed
such as fresh cut sorghum, corn or any
other green crop will provide. It is ad-
visable that your COW have a. pasture
over which she can Craze. This will
help to keep her in good condition by
necessitating her taking a sufficient
amount of exercise. Supply her with
an abundance of pure water. See that
her manager IS properly cleaned and
kept in a good condition. Washing It
out with sal soda once in a. while will
be helpful
Instesd of feeding cottonseed meal
alone feed half corn meal and half cot
tonseed meal. Do not allow the COW
to gorge herself one time and then let
her go for some time without food. In
other words, regularity in feeding IS
necessary.
You should draw the milk out OF the
udder thoroughly and completely. If it
becomes congested battle with hot wa
ter for twenty minutes at a time two
or three times daily and wipe with
dry cloth. Then rub the udder with
vaseline to prevent chatting.
A digestive tonic could be given with
advantage. especially when the COW is
SuffArir" from p more or less chronic
form Of Indigestion. We believe the
use Of plenty Of green feed and the use
OF the concentrates indicated. however.
will result in improvinr the condition
of your COW very materially.

FACTS ABOUT RAW ROCK
PHOSPHATE

NJ. s. w, Albany. Ga, writes: / would
like what information you can give me re
garding ground phosphate. 1t Is fine
enough so that 20 per cent will pass
through a sieve with 4O.OOO openings to
the square inch. Several farmers who have
used il seem to think il is valuable for all
crops and great land builder l would
appreciate your opinion concerning H.
There is undoubtedly a place for
ground phosphate rock in connection
with the development of a system of
permanent agriculture in Georgia. The
proper handling of this material, how
ever, should be thoroughly understood
and appreciated before one attempts to
use il too extensively. 1t is rather new
material to our people. The scarcity OF
sulphuric acid, of course, has greatly
enhanced the price of acid phosphate
and hence a great many concerns are
attempting to sell ground rock phos-
phate as a substitute for acid phos-
phate. They particularly urge farmers
to use it because of it's cheapness. 1t
is true that the ground rock phosphate,
when of good grade, contains a high
per cent of phosphoric acid, but farmers
do not as a rule understand that this
is not in an available condition and
may not become available in a single
crop season so as to be of any use to
the plants growing on the land.
Those intending to use phosphate
rock should bear the following sugges-
tions in mind: They should be able
to purchase it at a relatively low cost.
1t must be ground very finely. 1t
should be used at the rate of 1000
pounds per acre on long-season crops,
on lands rich in organic matter or which
may be enriched by heavy applications
of yard manure or green crops turned
under, and the farmer should be will
ing to wait considerable time for re-
suits. On short-season crops where lib
eral rations of quickly available phos-
phoric acid are needed to insure the
proper maturity of the crop, we advise
the use OF suitable amounts of acid
phosphate On meadows and pastures
and on some of our winter-growing ce
reals, rations of ground phosphate rock
can probably be used to some advan-
tage. Where one is in position to apply
liberal amounts of this material and
wait several years for results, benefits
from it's use will no doubt accrue.
Farmers should also remember that in
purchasing this material that it is de-
sirable to obtain that running very high
IN total phosphoric acid, say, about 80 to
80 per cent and relatively low in iron
and aluminium oxide. This material is
essentially valuable for the phosphoric
acid it contains.

Cookies cotton is 2, good variety and
has made satisfactory showing tr
the tests conducted by US, not only at
Athens, but in various other parts of
this state. II is probably more readily
q attacked by anthracnose than some other
strains. At least this seems to have
been our experience with il. We are
of the opinion. however, that certain
strains Of il are more subject to this
disease than others. Anthracnose, as you
know, causes very considerable losses
to the cotton growers of the southeast
