TO ENCOURAGE SOLDIERS
 TO FARM IN UTAH

LOGAN, Utah., Feb. Il (by Associ- ated Press. .)-The Utah agricultural college proposes soil survey through out the state during the next twelve months, it has just been announced by Dr. F. s. Harris, director of the university. The returning soldiers or sailors who locate on farms in this state may not waste money and labor endeavoring to grow crops on unfit lands is the principal reason for the survey, it was announced.
 According to Dr. Harris, thousands of dollars are wasted annually by per sons unfamiliar with soil conditions It is hoped to save much of this waste by giving thorough publicity as to the constituent element of the soil in various localities of the state. The plans call for a map of soil conditions of the state and for soil data pertain ing to all sections. The work has already commenced, to some extent, but it will be spring before it is we'll under way. This will be the first time in the history of Utah that a soil survey of the entire state has been attempted.

REDSKINS PART IN WAR
 TOBE GIVEN RECOGNITION

BOISE, Idaho, Feb. Il (by Asso- ciated Press) Chief Red Fox Skiu- kaska of the northern Blackfoot h. dians, in a memorial addressed to Gov Days of Idaho, asks that the fourth Saturday in September be set aside as an Indian holiday in honor of In dian participation in the war. The plea for the designation of an Indian day is made on the ground of the "contribution made by original Amer jeans to the great composite of white citizenship" Chief Red Fox insisting that both the history and the future of the red man deserve considera- tion.
 4 we have given to the colors in the great war 5000 braves says the pe- tition in citation of recent Indian achievements. We have bought $50,- ooo 900 worth of Liberty bonds and donated $2,O0O,000 to the Red Cross, mother of humanity. The American indians soul has been in the world war We know not the hyphen; we know not the pro-this and pro-that; we are 100 per cent Americans"
 The plea of Red Fox will be pre- uan.ad to the state legislature, now in 0assiOu.

In order to find, through scientific
investigation, solution for the prob
lens of American democracy Charles
Edison, chairman og the board of di-
rectors of the Edison company and
son of Thomas A. Edison, the inven-
tor, has resigned all other social,
civic and philanthropic connections
to become treasurer of the National
Social Unit organization, which is
conducting an experiment in COM
munity organization in Cincinnati, O.
The social unit plan aims to or
ganiZe the entire community around
public health, recreation, education,
unemployment and kindred problems.
Public needs are discovered by block
committees elected for every unit Of
a hundred families and represented
in a central community council. Pro-
grams to meet these needs are form
ulated by an "occupational council, -
consisting of elected representatives
of such skilled groups as physicians,
nurses, social workers, teachers and
business men. The object is to Sc
cure the most active participation in
and control of community affairs
by all the people, at the same time
utilizing the highest skill.
The demonstration in Cincinnati,
is is claimed, has established re-
markable record in health work, i'm
proved housing, begun a new system
for the collection and continuous re-
cording of community statistics and
promoted Americanization.
Extension of the social unit plan
to a wider area is being contemplated
for the near future, after the results
of the three-year experiment period,
which expires in 1920, have been
passed upon by a corps of nation ex-
pertS.

Greater Agricultural
Production in Georgia
Predicted by Expert

H. S. Mobley, in charge of the
demonstration of tractors and other
modern farm machinery now being
conducted in Georgia by the Interna-
tional Harvester company, in cooper
alton with the Atlanta chamber of
commerce and the Southern Bell
Telephone company, predicts that
Georgia in the future will outstrip
in agricultural production the great
producing sections of the west.
This will be accomplished by Geor-
gia farmers, in his opinion, through
the application of modern farm ma
chinery to their farms, enabling them
to cultivate profitably a much larger
acre 3 than they can possibly ham
die ~ old methods.
"Climatic and soil conditions in
Georgia" states Mr.. Mobley, "far
surpass those Of any other section
of the country. In Georgia are found
the climatic requirements for practi-
rainfall is more than abundant if
the soil is properly conditioned to
absorb it. In the large corn and
wheat belt of the west eighty acres
is considered a plot for one man,
while the average in Georgia is not
over eighteen"
Mr.. Mobley finds that Georgia
farmers are keenly interested in the
demonstrations of modern farm ma
chinery. They are somewhat sur
rrised to find that tractors and other
implements can be used on rolling
lands and terraced lands, as well as
on fiat lands.
On Tuesday the party will give
demonstration at Griffin, on Thursday
at GAINESVILLE and on Friday at For
syth.
