j, s, STOPS JAPANESE
LAND DEAL IN MEXICO
State Department Service Notice
on American Syndicate at
Los Angeles.

Washinston.-The state department
in response TO number of kilograms
from Senator Phelan, of California,
now in that state, which reported the
alleged negotiations by japanese In
terests for the purchase from Amerl-
can interests of 100000 acres Of land
In Lower California, has telegraphed
to the California Mexico Land Com
pany. OF Los Angeles, warning II hat
consummation OF a sale of such prop
erty will not be tolerated by this gov
eminent.
The nature of the warning Is con-
contained in the text of the Lodge res
olution, adopted by the senate In 1912.
and which caused the suspension OF
negotlatinos at that time between Jap
anese interests and an American syn
dictate for the purchase by the latter
of Magdalena Bay, Lower California,
but which, II allowed, would have fur
nished to Japan a valuable site for a
naval base.
The consequence of the reviving OF
the old question of purchase by Japan
of territory on this continent was re-
garded here by students of the inter-
national situation as having POSSIBLE
Af i'm HnyalnIrnnpfs
the japanese embassy knowledge Of
any negotiations between any Japan
ese interests and Americans or others
for the purchase Of Mexican land was
denied. One japanese authority stated
his personal belief that the report was
an invention.
Some Of the consequences Of the dis
cussion which the raising Of the CUES
ton is thought to make possible are:
First the position
OF those critics Of the present draft Of
the covenant OF the league Of nations
who assert II does not conserve the
Monroe Doctrine, and that specific
reservation Of that document In the
treaty Of peace creating league
ought TO be made.
SecOnd.-Defeat OF the japanese
amendment Of the league covenant
guaranteeing international racial
equality.
Third.-TO bring in question the re.
lations between Mexico and japan. In
one quarter II was asserted It was
hardly probable that a sale Of such
extensive tracts of Mexican territory
could be considered without first OBJ
tanning from Mexico City an indication
OF the Mexican governments attitude
towards IL.

ported negotiations other than Sena-

OATS Is A VALUABLE CROP
SHOULD Be SEEDED EARLY
By R. r. Childs. =.

The experience that most farmers
have had with oats the last few
years has tended to discourage some
what the growing of this crop. But
stop and think. Do you remember
that from 1898 to 1917 the oat crop
came through the winter without ser
ious damage?
Good crops of oats can be grown in
Georgia if the oat is given change
but late planting, poor seed, poor pre-.
paration and poor land will always
give low yields.
After number of years of expert
mental work and and observation the
following conclusions have been
drawn:
First, select well drained land that
will produce good yield of any other
farm crop, and it will grow oats.
Second, Early, fall oats always give
tire highest yield. An average of
four years work shows yield of
30.6 bushels of oats when Is. Will six
teen bushels per acre pay for the lit
tie extra trouble of getting trem in
a month earlier? In he winter of 1918
early sown oats were not so badly da
mayed by cold, and made twenty
bushels per acre, while November Is
sown oats yielded only six bushels.
Third. good yields of oats have
been secured when sown in cotton
middles tire last of September and
the first of October. This also given
a good grazing crop that will come
in mighty handy for the old COW this
winter and will only cost you the
seed and the time it takes to put
them in. @-r t
Where the boil weeviI is present
plow under your cotton stalks as
soon as the cottn is picked and seed
your oats with a disk drill In the
southern part of the state oats seeded
in this way after cotton have velvet
beans in -yoar they cannot be
grazed off in time to sow oats.
Use from six to eight pecks of seed
per acre and be sure they are good
pure seed Many of the so-called
seed oats offered for sale are a mix
ture of several different types. AS
an instance we have a long slender
growing oat with an open, spending
head that is otter found in Applylcr
oats This Oat was seleced out of a
field of Appler oats, and, when test
ed for three years in comparison
with a pure strain of Appler, yielded
only 44.O bushels per acre as com
pared with $40 bushels for the pure
strain.
A good application of stable man,
ure, or three to four hundred pounds
acid phosphate at planting time, will
pay in most cases. Then, about
March /, give it a top dressing of nj
trate of soda, or sulphate ammonia
using seventy-five to one hundred
pounds per acre. Do not wait until the
oats are in the boot stage to apply
this fertilizer but put it on just about
the time the plants begin to spread
out preparatory to shooting up the
stalk.
Oats of the Red Rustproff type are
good yielders in this section. There
are several varieties of this type as
Appler, Bancroft. Hundred Bushel and
Cook. A good, pure strain of any of
these will give a good yield. The Full
ghum oat has given slightly lower
yield than the Appler on our expert
mental plots, but ras the advantage
of being from seven o.. to ten days
earlier.
