ELECTION NOTES

Although nothing definite has been
done, the Franklin Republican Coun-
ty Committee has begun to talk
about plans for the inaugural cere-
monies when Governor-elect Edwin
p. Morrow and Lieutenant Governor
elect s. Thruston Ballard take the
oath of Office December 9. If the
tentative plans of the committee are
carried out the heads of the Republic
can ticket will be indicted into office
with the most pretentiOus inaugural
ceremonies ever staged in this State.
Now that the election is over and
it has been decided by 10000 voters
that Mr.. Morrow is to be the next
Governor. Democrats and Republi-
cans alike will cooperate in formu-
lating plans for the inaugural cere-
monies. The committee to be in
charge of the arrangements have not
been selected.
DR.. John G.. South, whose wife is a
cousin of the Governor-elect, will be
chairman of the executive commit
tee. Other members of that commit
tee will be announced next week.
A telegram received by Judge
Elem Sampson, of the Court of APP
peals, from his brother, L. D. Samp-
son, of New York, stated that a
boom was being started in New York
City for Governor Coolidge, of Mas
sachusetts for the Republican candi-
date for President and Governor
elect Edwin P. Morrow, of Kentucky,
for the Vice Presidency. A similar
boom for Governor-elect Morrow
was started in Washington.

There is no way of determining the

which the molasses you like so much

rieties are cultivated for sorghum
syrup production in Georgia. One OF
these which is quite favorably known
is the Sugar-drip variety. This we be-

G. NJ. j., St. Simons Island Ca,
writes: What do you think is the most
necessary thing to make an institution
where hundred more children are
kept a paying Investment?
The first and most necessary thing
to do on farm such as you describe
is to organize it so that it will
be as nearly self-sustaining as pos
sible. By this I mean that there
should be produced on the farm all
the food outside of supplies neces-
sary for the adequate maintenance of
the children it is expected to sup
port. To that end I would organize
it so that there would be good
dairy supplying an abundance of
milk, since this is the cheapest and
most wholesome food which we can
provide for young children. Milk,
as you doubtless know, may be made
to take the place of a large part
of the meat we now feed our chill
dren at great cost, and frequent
ly to the detriment of their bodies
and possibly their minds, as well.
Then there should be raised on the
farm a sufficient number of hogs
to supply fresh meat in season, and
from which may be secured such
bacon and ham as is necessary for
food at other seasons. Probably
there is some rough land on the
farm on which few sheep or goats
and some beef cattle could be raised
at a very small cost. There should
be also a poultry establisam ent and
a good area devoted to garden crops
We now know that the iron and
mineral elements so essential to the
welfare of all people are most cheap
ly and easily furnished through green
leaf crops and vegeta bles, so we
should provide these in very large
abundance.
The more you diversity your I'M
dertaking the more nearly can you
make 1t pay. I am presuming, of
course, that you expect the farm to
produce all the foods mentioned, and
that then you will charge them
against the boarding department Of
your school at fair and just figure

FERTTL1zrNG VALUE OF CORN
CoBs
W. NJ. t., Villa Riea, Ca, writes: 1
can buy crushed corncobs at $40, per
ton. From analysis, they Aeem to con-
tain a good deal of nitrogen and potash.
l wish to know how is the best way to
use them and how much to the acre
for cotton. 1 could mix them with
some manure and acid and make com
post, or could broadcast them on the
land. As they have never been used
here, would like your advice in the
matter. ..
Corn cobs, according to the infor-
nation at my command, contain about
ga pounds of nitrogen, IA pounds
acid and 1872 pounds pot
ash per ton. You will thus see that
they are a. very low=grade material,
and even allowing 80 cents a pound
for nitrogen this element would only
be worth $3.50 per ton. The phos-
phoric acid at cents a pound would
be worth "a cents, and the potash
at 80 cents a pound would be worth
1895, which, according to our fig
ures would give them a fertilizing
value of 1894. This material would
become very slowly available in the
ground, however, as corn cobs do not
decay rapidly. In order to utilize
them to any advantage we imagine
they should be ground or composted
with something that would break
them down rapidly 1t would take
some time to compost them effective
ly and we do not believe it would
pay you to attempt to handle them
in this manner. The best way to OBJ
tain their food value would of course
be by composing or else by blowing
them down into the ground say in
the fall, or when they would have a
comparatively long period in which
to decay.
We would not attempt to use ma
terial of this kind under cotton at
this season of the year with the ex-
pectation of obtaining a very large
amount of benefit from it's use.
