ALLIES TO SEND
COODSTORUSSIA
Elaborate Plans Worked
Out For Resuming Of
Relations

PARIS, Jan. 10. (Monday) -Elab-
crate plans for the resumption of
commercial relations between the
Russian people and the Allied ma
tions have been worked out. 1t is ex-
pected the Bolsheviki win permit the
free interchange of manufactured
goods and raw materials. It will be
a comparatively simple matter to dis
tribute goods among the Russian peo-
pie under the agreement announced
Friday by the Supreme Council, it
is said by Russians.
In the official communication of
Friday the Supreme Council approx
ed of recommendation to relieve
the population in the interior of Rus
STA by giving them medicine, agri-
cultural machinery and other com
modities, of which the people are in
sore need, in exchange for grain
and flax.
This partial lifting of the block
ade was described in the official COM
munication as "an exchange Of goods
on the basis of reciprocity between
the Russian people and allied and
neutral countries" but through CO.
operative societies.
"These arrangements imply nc
change in the policy of the allied
government" said the communica-
ton of the Supreme Council
The relief to the people is to be
given through cooperative societies
to insure that the commodities sent
there shall reach the peasants them
selves.

Purebreds Increasing in Bull Clubs.


Purebred cows in bull association
herds have increased 249 per cent
since 1918, according to the bull as
ISOLATION directory recently compiled
by the United States Department of
Agriculture. The records for 1918
show that the number of cows owned
by members of bull associations was
lO,248, of which 597, or 5.5 per cent.
were purebreds; yhile the records for
1919 show the total number of cows
was 1924, of which 2,O86 or 11.43
per cent, were purebreds.
Comparing only those associations
which reported in both 1918 and 1919.
it is found that in 1918 there were
459 purebreds, and in 1919, 1.O01
purebreds, or an increase of 118
per cent.
That the bull association is proving
great help to the small breeder is
evidenced by the fact that the num-
her of associations has increased from
a in 1918 to 78 in 1919. The bull
association guarantees the farmer
continued use of good purebred bull
at cost that is within his reach, and
the farmer has not been slow to real
ize its value. If the present rate of
Improvement is maintained it is GER
tain that the future will show steady
replacement of the grades by pure
brcds, and that this will take place
bC.h by natural increase and by pur-
chase until he members of the bull
associations VIII have practically all
purebred cows in their herds. With
out a bull association few of these
smaller breeders would have found it
possible to get into the raising of
purebreds.

PECANS CONVINCE
A CALIFORNIAN
Sees Greater Future For
Them Than For Fa-
NOUS Walnut

BAILEY, Jan. 20.-An officer of
the United States marine corps whose
home is in Pasadena, Cal, has been
quietly investigating the pecan in
dustry in South Georgia, with a view
of buying land and setting a grove.
He expects to make his home some
where in this section when the grove
has come into bearing.
With the thoroughness of a trained
investigator he has subjected the pres
ent industry to a careful scrutiny and
his findings will be of interest to resi-
dents of the section. He says that
beyond question the pecan on prop
erly handled South Georgia soil will
yield much larger income than the
walnut groves of California, some
of which have sold at $4,000 per acre
recently. The record price for a
South Georgia bearing paper shell
pecan grove is $1,000 per acre, and
land suitable for pecan culture is
available in many counties for less
than $50 per acre.
South Georgia growers have receiv-
ed more than 100000 for their 1919
crop although the large paintings of
recent years are not yet in bearing
The demand for the large paper shell
nuts is growing at a tremendous rate
and the production of all other varie-
ties of market nuts is on the decline
This officer believes that hundreds
of investors will come into the section
in year or two to grow pecans on a

Farmers probably will not be able
to secure lime to meet their agricul-
tural needs if they wait about order
ing it until they are ready to apply it.
Under old conditions, companies sup
plying agricultural lime recognized
spring and late summer as the two pc
riods of demand, and farmers have
ordinarily ordered their lime at the
time they wished to apply it, in order
to save time and work by including
hauling from the railroad and apply
ing to the land in one operation. I'm

lime manufacturers are no longer able
TO adjust their business to this prac-
uce. Owing to shortage of labor in
their own plants and transportation
dlIilcultles, last-minute deliveries can
no longer be made with certainty.
For these reasons the Department
urges that spring needs be anticipated
and that orders for lime be placed at
once. Dealers and manufacturers
should have advance information as
TO farmers needs so that orders can
be combined and car space used to
the best advantage. Delay in order
ing may result in failure to obtain
the lime until too late.
1t IS, moreover, the desire of the
railroad Administration that the sea-
son for delivery of lime, which has
heretofore been from March to May,
be extended to include the period
from January to May, in order to re-
heVe as far as possible the existing
car shortage.
