TOMATOES AND GREEN CORN

, on the vines and they will continue
in disable condition for much long
er time, but they may be ripened
successfully by plucking them from
gle layer on a shelf in the cellar.
This may be the better plan for
some backyard gardeners who have
not sufficient space to hang up the
vines.
The late corn patch, also, is likely
to have week or ten days of table
service in it when the frost warn
ing comes. 1t is not necessary to
lose the green corn. Pluck the ears,
leaving the husks on, and place them
on the cellar floor with no two ears
touching. The corn will remani in
good condition for ten days I, long
er. Even if you have no cellar or
other place where tn Gears can be
the corn. Cut the stalks, leaving the
ears on, and shock them in the gar
den. The corn will probably not re-
main in good condition so long as If
properly stored on the cellar foolr
and it becomes toughened, but the
season for using it can be extended
several days.
There may be beans and peas not
quite fully matured. If you have
space in which to keep them under
cover, pull up the vines by the
dry out Then shell the beans or
peas, put them in bags, hang in a
wellventilated dry place, and keep
them for winter use. This, of course,
can not be done if the beans or peas
are too immature. Canning is the
only means of saving them under
| that condition. The curing on the
vine method, however, is the best
plan for curing navy and other bush
beans even when they are fully ma
ture. e. .. ,"..t -.t
The cellar, if there is one, other
wise a pit in the garden, may be
made to care for most of the other
vegetables well into, if not through,
the winter. Onions that are mature
and thoroughly dried may be kept in
the attic or in any dry, Well-venti-
lated place where they will not
| freeze. A pit in the garden may be
made to serve as a storage for pO-
tatoes, late beets, carrots, turnips,
| late cabbage, celery, and satisfy. II
there is no cellar available the earth
mound in the garden can be made
to serve admirably, saving lot OF
money by keeping certain of the late
garden vegetables for winter eating.
All that is necessary in making a
vegetable storage pit is to place some
| straw, hay, dry grass, or fodder on
the ground, place the vegetables on it
| in a conical pile, cover them with the
same material used at the bottom, and
| then cover with 2 or 8 inches OF
earth. The hay, or whatever material
is used, should be allowed to extend
| thrugh the dirt at the apex of the
cone, thus providing the necessary
ventilation to keep the vegetables in

There is no grass with which we
are acquainted which has the carry
ing capacity Of Bermuda in this sec
ton Of the state for summer graz
ing. This grass forms denSer and
tougher sod and will stand more
abuse than any other grass. More
over, it has a greater carrying ca
pacity per acre, and it resists drouth
better than any other grass. These
statements apply. of course, only
to summer conditions, because Ber-
muda is cut down by the first frost
and is of no value for several months
in the year for grazing purposes.
We have been trying for a long time
to find something to use for fall
and winter grazing, but as yet have
found nothing more satisfactory to
recommend than rye planted relative
ly early. We believe it can be sown
satisfactorily on a Bermuda sod.
ditions one might secure a fairly
good stand from cross disking. In
other words, it might not be neces-
sary to break up the land with a
plow. Of course. if it is broken
UP and prepared properly and seeded
better stand of rye and a much larger
amount of grazing therefrom. If you
care to seed rye we presume the
best time to plant it would be at
the season you indicate. -.
We have sown' some orchard grass
and red top in semi-Cleareds woodlands
on the college farm, together with
little alsike or white colver. We
have obtained quite a large amount
of grazing from this com bination dur
ing the fall, winter and early spring.
This combination is of very little
In fact, it is probably better not to
Craze it at that season of the year
if one wishes to retain the sod. For
clearned land, however, where the sun
would beat directly down we doubt
if this combination would be of much
value. The grasses which promise
the most grazing in Georgia are
Louisiana carpet grass and DalIis
grass. Seed of these are expensive
and difficult to obtain. Dallis grass
is best adapted to low, moist lands.
We are at work now trying to find
means by which the, supply of seed
of these grasses may be increased
and possibly at a lower cost than
now prevails.
On average bottom lands such as
we have here in Georgia we believe
the best grass to plant for graz
ing would be red top. With this it
might be possible to associate some
Meadow Fescue and white clover We
do not think you would find timothy
as satisfactory as the grasses we de-
scribed. On dry uplands probably
tall oat grass would be found best
Under semi shaded conditions some
orchard grass and some other of the
best known grazing grasses, such
as red top would prove satisfactory

fully understand. to plant the area

PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH
SOIL IMPROVEMENT

1t is our custom to give much
consideration to the use of fertiliz-
ing elements in relation to the
growth of our principal farm crops.
This is a wise and judicious prac-
tice, but we must not lose sight
of the fact that fertilizing materials
after all constitute but a small
part of successful agricultural pro-
duction. The questions of blowing
ans subsoiling the land and build
~ it up through a proper rotation
Just as important considera-
ktions in any permanent type OF agri-
culture as the use of fertilizers or
ficiency in the sense of plant food
or to correct unfavorable conditions
which may happen to exist in
given soil. Deep blowing and sub
soiling are particularly important in
that great section of the south
known as the Piedmont area. The
soils of this territory are clay lands
chiefly and rather heavy. 1t is diff
ficult, therefore, to keep them in

The cotton market closed steady
New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, July 26.-With the main trading features in the news of the session about balancing the cotton market did not move over much ground today. Small declines and small advances succeeded {. each other rapidly and the net change was insignificant, being loss of from 1 to points. There was much evening up on both sides.
 The market opened on a continua- ton of the selling movement of the
 late session of yesterday and lost 9 to 16 points but the trade took an
 unfavorable view of the rains in the eastern belt and bullish view of the
 settlement of the labor disputes, both in this country and in England, and enough buying resulted to put the market II to 17 points higher than the close of yesterday. Better crop
 accounts from Texas caused burst of selling toward the close ard prices fell off to a net loss of 9 to 17 points. The settlement of the marine strike was attended by an immediate increase in exports, total foreign clearances for the day from all ports amounting to 3O,604 bales.
 The cotton closed steady at net de- clnas of i tO pOintS.

Prohibition Put
 Strawberry High

Philadelphia, July 26.-(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)- Prohibition indirectly produced an extraordinary condition in the straw berry market this year.
 Prices went higher than ever be- fore because a Chicago packing house opened what was said to be the larg- est fruit preserving plant in the world in the heart of the strawberry district of Delaware and the Eastern shore of Maryland and bought the products of great berry producing fields virtually without regard to cost to meet the tremendous demand for ice cream and soft drinks pro- duced by the "dry' period.
 Strawberries that normally sold for from five to ten cents quart were snapped up at from thirty to thirty seven cents. The price to the consumer never went below thirty cents this season. Strawberry syrup for flavoring soda water formerly sold at sixty-five cents a gallon is now quoted at $3.50 q gallon.
 Farmers are elated. Many of them made an average of $1,000 an acre on their strawberry crop and they are looking forward to big profits next year.
 The packers, when the strawberry season was over, sent their em- ployees to other work and closed the factory.

E. Richards Urges Everyone to Join
 Safety Campaign

In the period from January 1 to May ', 1919, 279 accidents, in which 30 persons were killed and 180 injured, occurred in the Southwestern region, according to letter received by The Graphic last night from Elmer Rich ards, chairman of the general safety committee of the Cotton Belt.
 Referring to the work of his con- mittee. and the reduction in the num- Der of accidents thru the efforts of the railroad emploes, MT. Richards says:
 "Our people must be brought to a realization of the appalling increase in loss of life and injuries to persons resulting from automobile accidents at railroad grade crossings. The con- stant increase in the number has created a problem more vitally affect ing our people than possibly any other. Ordinary care is not sufficient but these accident are positively known to be preventable. It is only necessary to think first and act safely before going upon railroad tracks. Will you not join in campaign for safety? Your life is at stake. Do not go upon a railroad track without first stopping, looking in both direc- tions and listening.
 "Region Director Bush of the South western region, United States Rail- road administration, reports that for the first four months of 1919, 30 per sons were killed and 180 injured in automobile accidents on railroad cross ings in that region. In view of this appalling number of accidents an ac- tive campaign has been 1nstituter. It is hoped through the cooperation of employees and public to reduce such 1 casualties to minimum.
 1 During 1917, 1,777 persons were killed and 1856 injured on railroad crossings in the United States. 4, 243 trespassers were killed and 8, I 829 injured during the same, year. By perfecting safety organiza tion of railroad employees a remark
 able reduction in accidents has beer made. During the recent 'No-Acci
 dent Month of May, reduction o1 fifty per cent in total casualties was
 reported, which has proven to rail
 road men that accident prevention l! a matter of education"

 HURTS COTTON

New York, July 26.-Weather con- ditions largely dominated the cotton market today and were responsible for most of it's fluctuations. An opening decline of to 20 points with the tone barely steady, was attri- buted to a favorable weather map to the southwest, while subsequent ral- lies during which October advanced to 35.10, December to 35.31 and Jan uary to 35.17, or net rise of about 12 to 23 points, was due almost en- tirely to the eastern belt forecast indicating more showers over Sunday. This in turn was followed by mod crate reactions near the close based on Wall street and New Orleans sell ing on a favorable forecast for the western belt and final prices proved to be unchanged to 25 points net lower.

Chicago Grain.

Chicago, July 26.-Prolonged drought and heat led to further ad- vances today in the value of acorn. Closing quotations, though, were un- settled 1-2c net lower to 5-Sc gain with September 1.95 3-8 to 195 3-8 to 1.95 1-2 and December 1.6e IS to 1.66 IA. Oats finished shade to 3-8c up and provisions varying from 2c decline to rise of 40c.
 December, the chief new crop de- livery, showed more plainly than other months, the misgivings with which corn traders viewed the ad- verse weather conditions. Buying o1 December was said to be in the mair for the southwest, where serious damage, if there were any, woulc first be likely to appear.
 Anticipations of demand from Ger. many for rye and barley tended tc strengthen oats. On the other hand liberal arrivals of oats were expected here on Monday.
 Provisions were neglected. Busi ness was of so scattering sort that prices changes had but little req meaning.

SMALL SCHOOLS FOR GIRLS
 ARE BETTER

Crescent college, an accredited jun- for college for girls, Eureka Springs, Arkansas, has compiled a statistical list showing that 90 percent of the men and women called eminent re- ceived their principal college training in small institutions.
 Crescent limits enrolment to 80 boarding students to provide intimate contract with master minds and in- dividual attention to each girl. This feature with the carefully selected student body and the modern meth ods employed have attracted girls from 35 different states. Emphasis is placed on hygiene, out-of fdoors rec reation, child welfare and other ad- vahtages which prepare the girl for her supreme career, motherhood. The location in the heart of the Ozark's famous for healthfulness, has doubt less contributed to making for this small select school a nation namme.

Captain of German Raider on Way to
 Be Repatriated

Sydney, Australia, June 6.-(Cor- respondence of the Associated Press) Count Felix von Luckner, com mander of the German raider Seeadler, which sank 25 merchant vessels in the South Atlantic in 1917, has been sent back to England to be repatriated to Germany. On the same vessel also were sent Lieuten- ant Kirchiress, von Yuckner's second, ln-command on the Seeadler and others of that raiders crew.
 Dr. E. Schultz, who was governor of German Samoa, when it was cap tured by New Zealand troops, also has been sent from Sydney to be repatrlated,@ together with Dr. G. Sessions, formerly agricultural di- rector in German Samoa.
 Won Luckner has had romantic career. Before the war he deserted from Russian vessel which he had run away to sea. Then he worked in south Australian hotel and later was a newspaper vendor in Mel bourne.
 Having raided merchantmen in the Seeadler, he was captured in the Fiji islands and while in internment at Auckland, New Zealand, escaped, captured a lumber coaster and head ed for the Kermadec islands but their vessel was overtaken and recaptured by an armed New Zealand vessel. Since then von Luckner has been kept in confinement at Wellington, New Zealand.
