THE IMPENDING CRISIS

We notice in some exchanges this
morning optimistic editorials on the
work OF. the church in the crisis
through which the world is now
passing. One says call the forces
of religion and civilization are
being imassed to combat radicalism
and to preserve the stability OF the
nation" Another anticle tells OF
the purposed labors of prominent
organization of the church which
will endeavor TO Christianize labor
and capital.
1t is earnestly hoped that the
work of the church and its auxiliary
organizations may be blessed IN
heaven, and the great desideratum
so long sighed for soon be in evi-
dence., \
Boishevism and radicalism gene
rally are enemies of the church and
all its teachings, and references to
the Bible are unheeded by head
strong men. For instance, what
would be the sense Of such quota
tions as the following to wiM-eyed
fanatics: 'Let your conversation be
without covetness, and be content
with such things as We have" Or
the words of John the Baptist: "Be
content with your wages" 1t would
be casting pearls to swine or that
which is holy unto the dogs, which
we are commanded not to do.
The church may be called upon tc
combat the forces of evil another
way. The teachings of the disor-
derby: element of present day may
head. up in the long-anticipated
Anti=Christ. While the last books
of the Bible were being penned we
are tcld there were many such in the
world. Rut is the embodiment of
them. all to come to the front in our
day?- Who can tell?

GEORGIA VANS SHOW
HIGH SUGAR CONTENT
Proper Advertising Should Give
The Southern Product a
Great Advantage

Many of the sweet potatoes which
Georgia is raising this year will find
good market in the northern and
western states if they are graded and
shipped in the right way. The Geor
gia State College of Agriculture tried
an experiment in 1917 in placing old
fashioned recipes Yin the packages OF
potatoes and found that this was an
excellent help in the mater of market
ing.
Northern gown sweet potatoes dc
net generally contain as much sugar
as the Georgia varieties and are less
moist when prepared for eating. Prac
tice shows that when southern Oh
Georgia grown sweet potatoes are pre-
pared in the same wa that northern
grown potatoes are prepared they dc
not make very palatable and accept
able dish. The recipe in potato pack
ages will aid in educating housewives
of other states how to prepare Geor
gia sweet potatoes. Old-fashioned
recipes for preparing sweet potatoes
may be secured by writing the Home
Economics Division of the State Col
lege Of Agriculture in Athens.

GIVE THE DAIRY COW
A BALANCED RATION
Succulent Feeds Like Silage And
Roots Are Relished
BY Cows

In order that a COW may give
high production of milk for long Pc
RODS of time she must be given a
we'll balanced ration and fed regular
ly. Bulky feed and concentrated
feeds should be kept before the ami
NAL in the right proportion.
The following recommendations for
feeding dairy cows are made by Prof.
T. 6. Yaxis of the Georgia State
College of Agriculture.
Dairy COWS by nature need feeds
that have a certain amount OF bulk.
Dry feeds, grain or hay, do not meet
this requirement, and bulky feeds as
silage and roots are, therefore, neces'
sary. In the ideal ration, both dry
feeds and bulk feeds should be in
cluded. The amount Of dry roughage
to feed should not exceed much more
than one pound per one hundred
pounds of live weight. The remain
der should be in the form of succu.
lent roughage.
The amount of feed to be fed
should be about one pound Of the
grain mixture to three or three and
one-half pounds of milk produced. This
applies only to cows that are not very
high producers. A COW is capable of
consuming only certain amount Of
grain and no more. Ordinarily, this
would be more applicable to cows pro-
ducing less than fifty pounds of milk
a day.
There should be an abundance Of
feed given to cows. A cow requires
certain amount of ed to maintain
her body, and she also requires a
certain amount of feed for produc-
ton. The amount of feed IN excess
of that which is required for mainte-
nance goes into producing milk. The
more milk that is produced, the bet
ter the chance for profit from the
cow.
Feeds should be palatable. Straws
of all kinds have absolutely no pala-
liability and it requires great deal
of the cows energy to handle them,
not considering the fact that they have
very little food value for producing
milk.
Succulent feeds produce better re.
suits because cows are able to con.
sumo larger quantities. They seem
to relish and enjoy these feeds much
more than if the feeds are all dry.
Digestibility of the feed must always
be kept in mind. There should be va.
riety in the feed. A grain ration
should consist of more than three
varieties of grain in the mixture. The
rule is that the greater the vari-
ETY., the more certain one is of hav.
ing a sufficient amount of mineral
and all the different nutrients requir
ed by the animal body.
The ration should be balanced. The
nutritive ration should by 1:4.4 to 1:6
This, in simpler words, means that fol
every pound of digestible protein there
should be from As to pounds of di
! gestible carbohydrates and fat in the
ration.
Lastly, and by no means unimport
ant, is the matter of COST. The
| farmer should consider feeding feeds
| that he can raise on his farm or those
that he can buy in his immediate vi
| Cinity.

Three Million Soil Tillers Have Ask
ed Government to Remove Embargo.
Immediate removal of the embar-
go on German potash has been de-
manded by the Washington repre-
sentative of 100000 organized
farmers. The spokesman for the far
mers assert that an intolerable situa-
ton is being brought about for the
producers of food by the efforts of
the American Potash Manufacturers
Association to have this embargo
maintained
AS a result of the embargo, far
mers declare, it is impossible to get
fertilizer abroad, while the American
plants are idle because they are not
being guaranteed a profit on future
products. The farmers allege that
this state of affairs is a contributing
factor of Importance in the cost of
living, inasmuch as the exoribtant
price, three times the price asked be-
fore the war, which the American
farmer is forced to pay for domestic
potash, is inevitably passed on to the

EEL WORM QUARANTINE

For the purpose of keeping the
nematode or eel worm out of Georgia
wheat, the state board of entomolo-
gy has ordered quarantine against
all shipments of seed wheat into this
state from California, New York,
Virginia, West Virginia and Mary

The board has also quarantined
the shipment of wheat outside of

local infestation of the eel worm has
has been discovered. Growers of
wheat securing a certificate showing
their wheat free from the pest may
ship out of the county, however.
In addition to the quarantine, the
board has ordered a quarantine
against the shipment into the state

from New England states, from New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Del
aware, Maryland, Virginia, West Vir-
ginia, North and South Carolina and

Irishman Calls
Wilson "MachiaveM
of>the New World''
BY Associated Press.

Dublin, April 1.-THE Sim Fein
parliament today discussed the
league of nations. Prof. Edward
De Valera said that Ireland was
ready to become constituent unit,
but only on the basis of the equality
of rights of all nations, great and
small. The whole hope of the world
was in President Wilson, lie con-
tinued, but the present league cove
rant was not democratic; it vio-
lated the principle of equality and
would set up greater tyranny
than before.
The member of the parliament for
Monagan attacked President Will
son and called him "the Machiavelli
of the new world" intent on tore
ing sham league of nations on
PROSTATE humanity"
Other speakers criticised the
american president, but Arthur
Griffith, founder of the Sim Fein
organization, said President Wilson
was at the present time fighting
England, France and Italy, and that
Ireland would support him in his
conflict with the old diplomacy.
