Learns of the War.

A woman was discovered in this
city yesterday who has lived all
through the great war and did not
know that it was going on. She is an
aged woman of German birth. Her
age kept her son from telling her
about the horrors of the invasion Of
Belgium and Of the sinking of the Luz
sitania. He didn't wish her to worry
and fret. But the day OF the peace
demonstration made it impossible to
keep silent. The old lady heard the
whistles blowing and the crowds
cheering and she demanded to know
what it was all about. When they told
her she raised her hands in a gesture
of imprecation and said: "Oh, if only
l could get these two hands on the
kaiser!" The interesting part of her
story is that her husband was a Ger
man soldier. The gray uniform was
so detested by him that he made his
wife, before his death, promise that
she would come to America so that
none of their sons ever would be CON-
PEELED to wear the livery of the kali
ser.-New York Sun.

Cattle Scab Wiped
Out Only Through
Use of Spraying

Small insect-like parasites, COM
monty known as mites are reSpon-
sible for cattle scab, contagious
skin disease affecting cattle of all
ages and conditions. There are sew
eral forms of the disease known by
such names as "scab," mango" and
itch" Though the disease itself
may not cause death directly, it is
responsible for serious losses by
lousing a shrlnkage in the weight
of animals, failure of young stock
to thrive and gain weight normally,
and by increasing, the death rate
CT poorly nourished animals of poor
vitality, especially range cattle eX-
posed to Indictment weather. Cat
tIe scab can be eradicated by dip
ping or spraying, dipping being the
most reliable method, and lime
sulphur, nicotine, and crude petro-
.eum dips can all be used with sue
cess. Methods of control and Grad
ication of cattle scab, together with
descriptions of the various forms of
the disease, are given in Farmers

You are to be congratulated on the
efforts you are making TO increase
the humUs supply of your soil: BY
all means gather up and save all
the oak leaves, pine needles and
other trash obtainable.
Our method of handling this would
be to compact it into a pile and wet
it down thoroughly and then fork
it over two or three times during
the next six weeks. In this way
You can break the leaves down rap
idly and secure a rather fine, friable
mass Of material. We would be
disposed to apply lime directly to
lie land rather than to incorporate
It with the leaves as you suggest.
There are several reasons for this.
The chief one, of course, being that
you need to use lime at the rate Of

ground, raw rock rather than go to
the expense of purchasing freshly
burned lime, which must, of course,

rows and putting compost under
the middle is a good one. This is a
desirable method CT preparing land

about 35 to AZ pounds Of available
phosphoric acid. These figures APP
ply to ordinary red lands in north
Georgia. There are some soils, of
course, on which heavier applica-
tons Should be necessary Under
existing circumstances, we could

Ruv Wholesale

One may purchase seed at whole
sale from large dealers with some
economy, but for the small garden
the gardener can probably buy
through a local dealer with adVan-
tage. Most package seed is of stand
ard price and it is not a difficult mat
ter now to determine what constitute
the leading, and therefore fairly re-
liable seed firms. Seed dealers, OF
course, do their best, as rule, to put
a good product on the market, but
naturally they cannot guarantee re-
turns from seed, because much OF IT
may be planted under conditions
which would favor the failure of the
crop. III any event, the wise gar
dener will test as much of the seed
he plants as he possibly can. This is
a very simple natter to accomplish.
One may taken ten seed from al
most any packet at random, put them
on a section of a blotter, cover them
over with another section of the same
paper, place on a dinner plate and let
stand in the living room for few
DAYS. The blotterS, of course, must
be kept moist. If the seed are good,
they will terminate very quickly,
and one should expect at. least nine
seeds to terminate out OF every ten
put on the blOtters.
Another method which is quite Ell
fective is to have little sand taDle.
The box need not be more than two
inches deep and may be Of any con"
venient size. The seeds are then
planted directly in the soil. Any
humber of seed testerss are on the
market, but it is not necessary. to
purchase, as one made and handled
in the manner indicated will prove
quite satisfactory.
The garden seed bed must be firm
and friable and free from Jumps or

crops are very small indeed. When
placed in the soil, under favorable
conditions they sprout and endeavor
to establish themselves, Remember
that they have a very meagre supply

GEORGIAHAS
8,678 BOYS IN
PIG CLUB WORK

Swine worth half a million dol
lars were raised by Georgia pig
club members during 1918. -Four
years ago there were no pig clUo5
in the state, but under encourage
ment from the College of Agricul-
ture and the United States depart
ment of agriculture S,67S boys in
Georgia are now enrolled in these or
CARNATIONS.
Their beneficial effect on the
swine industry of the state may be
judged from a summary just re-
ceived by the department from its
Zig club agent in Georgia.
Outstanding progress is reported
as follows; "The increase in final
value of hogs raised by pig club
boys in 1918 over those in 1917 was
more than Sc per cent. Pig, club
boys won 20 ribbons and $505 in
prizes in the open ring at two Geor-
gia fairs. The increase in number
of purcbred hogs raised by pig club
boys in 1918 over 1917 was more
than sos per cent.
The state champion was the IL
year-son of a 1-horse farmer who
bought his pig at an auction sale
for $3.50. She is worth $500 to-
day. Six pig club boys in one coun-
~ will, start hog farms in 1919. All
of them began with one small pig. v
