FLORIDA STATE COLLEGE
FOR WOMEN.

Tallahassee, Fla, Jan. %. 191S-The
College is installing, for the benefit of
the girls, a moving picture machine
in the auditorium OF the Administra-
ton building which will show films
and plays of a high educational or
der. The need of a machine of this
kind has long been felt in the college
and we are assured that the New
Powers Model 6-B from the Southern
Theatre Company of Atlanta, Georgia,
will fill this need.
Not only are there additional and
attractive features being added in our
the best paper shell variety pecan
trees were planted on the College
grounds. Other trees and shrubs are
to be planted from time to time to
beautify the campus.
The College looks forward to the
29th of January for IL will bring to
us a rare treat in the form of a lee
ture by DR.. Charles Epson Clark Of
the American University Of Rome. DR..
Clark, who was formerly a professor
at Yale has been for many years at
the head of this institution and at
present is iecturing in America as
a Representative of the Italian Gov
eminent, to present the part Italy is
playing the present war.
Ground has been broken on the cam
pus for two new buildings, a dormi-
tory and an educational building. The
dormitory will be on the plan of Rey-
noids Hall inside, but the same ar
chitectual style as Bryan and the
Dining hall and connected with the
latter by an arcade. 1t will accom-
modate about one hundred and eighty
girls and equipped with all convent
ence possible for their comfort. The
Educational building will be the Same
style as the administration building.
This three-story building will have
about eighteen class rooms. 1t will
accommodate all the professional ed
vocational department. the manual
training classes. the training school
and a large well equipped psychology
laboratory The two buildings are II
be completed by next September and
cost about hundred thousand dol
lars.

kudzu Greatest Forage Crop,
Declares Local Authority

it never loses its foliage, it cuts from
four to five times a year, and is a
green growing plant until a heavy
frost or freeze. Being a perennial it
comes up of itself, and will grow on
any land that is too POOR, or rocky
to yield other profitable crops.
1t is not injurious to stock as is the
case with alfalfa and other legumes.
All stock eats kudzu, and will leave
corn in preference to it. In Escam-
bia county, it is possible Co cut eight
to ten tons to the acre and in the
peninsula, will yield from twelve to
fourteen tons to tire acre.
The Florida Commission in July,
1916, gave their statement and analy-
for feed. Corn analysis show pro-
tein 10 per cent, sugar and starch So
and 1916 per cent, and fat SIG per
cent of the feeding at cost of s21.25
per ton. Kudzu analyses show 17.12
per cent protein, 38.42 per cent
sugar and starch 1873 per cent, val
ued at $19.75 per ton. The hay is
valued by them at from twenty to
thirty dollars per ton. There are
many forage plants and legumes
such as cowpeas, velvet beans, the al
falfa pro grass, Rhodes grass, Les
pedeza grass and others. But I'll of
them have to be replanted and fertil-
lied. Another very important fact
is that the lxudzu will stand any dry
weather that we have. The roots
penetrate deeply and it is a self
fertilizer. 1t takes in the nitrogen
from the air. The roots carry with
them the tubercules that are needed
to inoculate the SOIL The roots
draw the potash and phosphoric acid
from the subsoil while the leaves
draw all the nitrogen needed by the
plant from the air. In this way the
soil becomes richer every year in
stead of exhausted as from growing
grasses for hay. The writer has no
axe to grind. I don't own any
kudzu. / have none for sale but 1
will be glad to give information to
anyone how to get the plant and also
I will see that you get them with
full instructions how to plant. The
only object / have is to see that every
farmer or stock raiser in my beloved
state and especially in Escambia
county, will raise and cultivate the
greatest forage in the world and in
stead of buying from the North and
West ore million six hundred dollars
worth of hay and two and one-half
million dollars worth of beef and
pork, that we can export more than
this in place of importing it. You
need never be afraid that the kudzu
will ever be disappointment, be-
cause when you wish to get rid of it
all you have to do is to cut the crown
with disc pillow and it is dead.

ELEVATOR GIRLS AT
SAN CARLOS HOTEL.

Welcome to our city, little girls in
uniform! You and our little friends
who are already working so efficiently
for the Postal Telegraph Company are
perhaps the first in Pensacola to step
into the places of some OF the boys,
and hold jobs which have been looked
upon until now as the birthright of
those boys. but you will not be the
least, unless the war in Europe comes
to a sudden close.
For the past couple OF years all such
posts in the European countries have
been filed by girls, and it is said that
they are very well filled indeed. Girls
over there run elevators like you are
doing, and they also run street cars,
which you may possibly do later on
even in Pensacola. while there is a bare
possibility that in some of the ship
yards which are being started in the
vicinity part of the labor will also be
done by girls, just as it is in the larg-
est shipyards in the world. In the
yards OF Harland a. Wolfe in Belfast,
where such monster ships as the
Olympic and the Titanic are built, 1t
is said that a large portion of the
work is now being done by girls, and
none of them knew any more about
manual labor when the war broke
out than the average girl in Pensacola
does to-day.
Running an elevator in hotel may
be only the thin edge of the wedge,
but everybody admires you for having
the pluck to insert it, just the same
an they admire your trim little jackets
and caps, and they wish you all the
luck in the world in your new work.

By ]. C.. Peterson

Sometime ago / wrote an article
on the greatest forage crop in the
world-the kudzu. I have had sew
eral inquiries from farmers about the
kudzu and if you will kindly publish
few facts it will give the readers
of your valuable paper information
that cannot be had in any other way.
The first year after this the kudzu
cowpea or velvet bean, and is also
perennial. 1t is planted from the
roots as it neither blooms or seeds
in field culture. 1t never needs re-
planting, it is a self fertilizer, and a
soil builder. At the first planting,
it requires a good soil but after this
it requires no fertilizer or cultiva-
ton from the planting of the first
year.
1t is possible from one acre to
plant out five acres the second and
third year, it grows on the ground
like the strawberry vine, and takes
root at every JOINT. The root is
about three inches in diameter. the
crown part, the prongs from three
to five prongs to every plant, from
ten to thirteen inches long. 1t takes
about one thousand plants to the
acre. The plants are placed about
seven feet apart and corn or cotton
in between so as to keep out the
grass.
The kudzu is a legume like the
will cover the entire ground and Grad
icate all obnoxious grasses, such as
nut grass or Johnson grass. The
stem grows up straight like the vel
vet bean, the leaf resembles the vel
vet bean. 1t grows from three to
five feet, is cut like any other hay,
is easily cured, and is not spoiled by
a shower of rain. Unlike Their hay
