Canada has tried government aid in
building homes for workingmen having
made grant of $25,O00,000 to be di-
vided between the different provinces
The money has not been. asked for, nor
homes built because the government
limited the cost of the house and lot to
$4,000. Canadians say they cannot
build good houses for that money and
the working men say they cannot pay
the interest on such sum and pay for
their living. This works out about as
beneficial as the government housing

Phosphates
Delayed Applications
OF Fertilizers

Lack of labor on the farm, unfavor-
able weather at planting time, conges-
ton on railways and consequent delays
20 shipments, may prevent the full and
proper amount of fertilizer being APP
piled to the crop at time Of planting.
LATE APPLICATIONS PAY
A late application Of fertilizer as a
side dressing to rowed crops, or as a
top-dressing for other crops, is often
quite as effective as when applied at
planting or seeding time.
Certainly it is much better and wiser
70 make the delayed fertilizer applca-
ton in this way than to attempt to
grow crop with no fertilizer at all, or
with less than the usual quantity. Re
member that fertilizer conserves farm
labor by making it more productive
The big problem is to apply the fertiliz-
CT with the least possible amount of
labor, but at such time, and in such
n way, as TO make it most effective.

-. (Spl)--With three Of Ole Miss stars
back In the game, the Red and Blue
pigskin warriors travel to New Orleans
to meet Tulane Saturday. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the Ole Miss team was
defeated last saturday when they went
up against the l.. s.. U. eleven at Baton
Rouge, they feel confident Of showing
up credibly against Tulane in Satur-
days game, and make the Tulane team
fight for their Victory, should they be
lucky enough to win,
Red Ray, En- Farmer and Peg
gy'' Lake are again back In the game,
after injuries sustained in practice last
week, and in better form than ever be-
fore. Feemster, who made such a good
showing in the line in the l.. S. L.
game, Is out for two weeks on account
of a couple of fractured ribs. The Ole
Miss team is lighter than the majority
of the Southern teams, and has been
outweighed by every team that ii has
zone up against this year. However,
that has not kept them from being fun
of the Ole Miss pep" They go to Tu-
lane determined to fight to the last
ditch, although outweighed by about
is to 20 pounds.
The G~reenbacks' lineup will probably
contain two former Ole Miss men-DtcR
Fields and Bookout-who so effectively
handled the pigskin on the Red and
Blue eleven two years ago.
Coach Sullivan has been giving the
men some stiff workouts this week, al.
though the field has been a veritabe
sea of mud.
The team left oxford at 1O:55 Friday
morning, arriving in New orleans about
Q O'Clock tonight.
