U. S. Sells 10 Ships
AT Considerable Profit

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Nine-
teen steel steamships have been sold
to New York purchasers for $27,S2I,-
l20, Chairman Hurley, of the United
States shipping board, announced
late Monday.
Names of the purchasers, which
include several big shipping con-
Germs, will be announced later
The ships were built by the gov
ernment during the war and will
be turned over Immediately to their
ne wowners.
The sale is the biggest ever made
for immediate delivery. Profits to-
falling millions will be collected by
the government on the sales, since
all the ships wore built for less
than the price for which they were
sold. The building prices were $1TS
and 1913 per ton. The sale prices
We're 1910 and 1925 per ton.

Cotton Crop Damaged by
Rain and Boil WeeVil

CLAYTON, Ga, June 17.-During
the past two weeks there has been
considerable rain in this section and
the crops have been damaged to
great extent. The wet weather has
caused the boil weevil to make rap
id progress, and some of the farm
ers are blowing up their cotton and
putting in other crops. Others find
that all the fruit has dropped off,
though they are making a desperate
effort to check the weevil and save
a part Of the crop. 1t is almost a
certainty that there will not be
any Sea island cotton made in this
section compared with the crop last
year.

THE FEEDING VALUE OF COT
.st TONSEED MEAL

K C. NJ, Thomasville, Ca. writes:
/ can buy 4 per cent cottonseed meal
here at $55. Is it worth buying and
feeding to dairy cows at that price?
Our experience indicates that con-
siderable amount of protein is neces-
sary in the ration of dairy cows, and
when it is. cut down apreciab1y there
will be q falling off in the milk flow.
Of course, one can use more nitrogen
in a ration than can be utilized to adj
vantage by the, cow. Whenever this
is done it is a WaSteful process.
Cottonseed meal feed by itself is
very rich in protein and should be
used in moderate amounts and with
discretion or there is danger of up
setting the digestion and throwing
the COW off feed. Our experience
with cottonseed meal leads US to be-
lieve that when it is combined with
something else better results are OBJ
tanned than when it is fed alone. This
must not be construed as disapprov-
ing the use of cottonseed meal, as
we have fed it for a long time with
high degree of satisfaction. 49,.
Our method of determining what
feeds to get for our dairy. cows is to
able and then purchase that one
which will furnish us with this ele-
ment in the largest amount at the
lowest cost. / see no reason why
peanut meal should not be fed with
high degree of satisfaction to your
cows. We have also found velvet
bean. meal useful. especially when
combined with little corn or some
other concentrate. In handling this
question we would therefore proceed
to purchase that material which
would furnish us the protein at the
cheapest cost. If it happened that 4
per cent cottonseed meal at $55 per
ton proved the most economical then
we would not hesitate to purchase
and use it. We think, however, it
is high-prieed product at: the figure
indicated, and we think it would be
better to find other things that, would

some of the more important princi-

acquaint himself as far as practical

MANAGEMENT OF AN ALFALFA
FIELD '' =

FIELD
r. D. T., Palmetto, Ca, writes:
We have 10 acres of the best alfalfa
we have ever seen. The field is two
years old and the stand perfect,
grass or weeds. The first cutting
in April and very fine; and is ready
TO cut again as soon as the weather
clears up. Have bought alfalfa harrow
and want to cultivate after next cut
ting, and want to know what fertilizer
to use. I have acid phosphate, cotton,
seed meal, per cent tanknge and %
per cent potash.
You are to be congratulated on
having such a fine field of alfalfa
There is no crop in Georgia which
will prove more profitable where
good stands are obtained. and where
it is properly handled, Our. expe-
rience with alfalfa as a feed for dairy
cows teaches us that it is par
excellence above anything we can
purchase. We have found, for in
stance, that when our herd is fed
on alfalfa the flow of milk goes up,
and that when it gives. out there
is nothing with which we can main
tain the flow so satisfactorily or at
so low a cost. rs Sc
We have had alfalfa on the farm
here, as you doubtless know, for
several years past. We have stands
here that have been cut for eight
years, ana each year nave made an
average yield of at least five tons
per acre. We cut our alfalfa five
times a season, and in favorable
years have cut it six times. Our
average yield of cured hay ranged
around a ton. In some cuttings it
runs higher than this and in some
below. We have cut as little as
three-fourths of ton and as high
as one and a. half tons.
T., o,r faara o,o1Ir
two things necessary to maintain al
falfa after one secures a good stand.
The first is to lime it occasionally.
We do this once in about two or
three years, using ton or two of
lime put on as rule in the fall
or early winter, when the alfalfa
is dormant. We harrow it well into
the soil. We put on one application
of acid phosphate a year. About 500
pounds per acre is the amount we
generally use, This is put on some
time after the lime is applied, but
generally before much gorwth or de-
veloprnent has taken place in the
plate well into the ground. We have
never followed the practice of linn
ing or using acid phosphate but once
in the year.
Sometimes it is good practice to
harrow the land to keep weeds or
start. AS a rule we set the teeth
of the cultivator we use up a space
or else let them point backward. In
other words we obviate the tearing
action, but we get the. full benefits
of the cultiyating action.
1t is not good practice to apply lime
with acid phosphate. 1t may be that
it will pay sometimes to use potash
on alfalfa, but we have never APP
piled any to our land after the crop
was established, nor have we used
any nitrogen on any of our fields
The success we have had leads us
to believe that the use of these two
elements is not necessary.

Peanut meal has been fed quite eX.
tensively to hogs for some length OF
time and it has never come to our
attention from any source that it
would cause sickness or death. 1t is
possible that any food, might upset
the digestive system, if it is used I'M
wisely. It is a mistake to feed hogs
more than they can eat UP clean,
and it is a mistake to try to maintain
them on one sort of concentrate. The
best proportion in which to feed pea
nut meal with corn to hogs would be
on the basis of equal parts. Where
one wishes to finish the hogs off to
the best advantage two-thirds corn
and one-third peanut meal should be
fed. For young hogs, however. we
would feed on the fifty-fifty basis.
1t is possible, of course, for peanut
meal to be in bad condition. You
should examine it to see that It is
free from mou1ds of any kind. When
in this condition it might cause di-
gestive troubles. Hogs fed on con-
