SENATOR SMITH
MOVES TO AID
COTTON EXPORT
BY CLIFFORD TUCKER

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Senator
Hoke Smith, of Georgia, during his
visit to New York, has been partic-
ularly active in an effort to make ar
rangements for the export of cotton
to Europe, thereby boosting the price
of the product.
The senior Georgia senator has
met with great success, and has had
assurances of cordial support to the
Export Finance corporation, to
which practically all banks in the
cotton-growing area are subscribers.
1t is the senator's idea to have a
great portion of cotton shipped to
middle Europe, mainly Germany.
The Export Finance corporation,
which is to have charge of a large
part of the cotton shipments, will
have a right to issue notes in amount
equal to ten times the capital stock
to secure funds to aid foreign eX-
ports.
Senator Smith has interviewed
many exporters in New York and
finds them in sympathy with his plan
to send cotton into middle Europe.
Il feel confident a most liberal
financial support will be given to the
Export Finance corporation as soon
as it is organized" stated Senator
Smith.
"Opinion here is that southern SELL
ing was responsible Tor the pfeak IN
prices of cotton. There are strong
interests in New York who are ready
to give their cordial support to the
Export Finance corporation.
"Th1s corporation will be author
lied to issue notes equal to ten times
the capital stock for the purpose Oh
securing money to aid in foreign eX-
ports. The notes will be readily alb
sorbed for the purpose OF putting
cotton into Germany"
Senator Smith has been highly hon
ored during his visit to New YORK.
He has been the guest of honor at
various luncheons and banquets at
tended by the most prominent cltl-
zens of the state.

States court judges.
federal Judges of New York were
Judge Alton B. Parker, former Sena-
tor O'Gorman and former Secretary
of War Lindley M. Garrison.
A high tribute was paid Senator or
Smith by Senator O'Gorman, When
the latter said: The natlon coulu
have better afforded to lose the serV-
ices Of any other senator than Sena-

The senator was entertained at
luncheon also by Thomas B. Fielder,
formerly of Atlanta, and he was one
of the guests of honor at a dinner
at the Hotel Astor. z4

The crop and animal waste in
Georgia in 1919 Appropriated $780,
sents practically $33 per capita of
our population. What marvellous
addition to our wealth the saving of
even part of this great sum of
money would mean. 1t is true that
we live in a billion-dollar age, but
one-t tenth of billion is after all a
considerable sum. and repreents very
often the Increment or loss Oh a
profitable year of industry and pro-
duction. How did so great and enor-
nous an amount of wealth escape
from us?
OF our 13,64o,OOo bushels of sweet
potatoes. approximately 100000
bushels decayed because we had no
suitable storage houses in which to
place them. What was the use Of
growing them if we did not save
them? There is enough material on
every farm to build an efficient
sweet potato storage house at a small
cost, and the Georgia State College
of Agriculture stands ready to sup
ply free plans to every bona fide citi-
zen of the state. Our loss in corn ag-
gregated S45, 900. The statement
with reference to this crop may seem
anomalous to many, but as a matter
of fact, we do not need to increase
the acreage in corn to raise 100000
600 bushels as compared with the
69,S90,000 bushels we raised last
year What we do need to do is to
take the drone plants out of our corn
fields. plant better varieties, in
crease the yield per acre through
seed selection and eliminate through
wise practices the heavy damage We
now suffer from insect and fungus
diseases. These are comparatively
simple matters, and certainly no one
acquainted with the facts doubt our
ability to increase the yield Of corn
by the institution of better soil prep
aration and fertilization by an av-
erage Of from five to ten bushels per
acre. Part of the wealth we obtain
from cotton and other crops goes out
of Georgia each year for corn to
feed our live stock or for use as hui
man food. Let us stop this leak for
ever. It can be accomplished this
year.
Under the head Of cotton we are
still growing a number of varieties
that yield a short and unsatisfactory
staple. This easily amounted to a
loss equivalent to 1922 bales last
year. This .shortli1t was worth So

A Boon to Farm Women
No one single thing brings so much
relief to farm women in meeting
their endless tasks as does the use of
running >Water. 1t is undoubtedly
the greatest need in rural-home life
today on more than two-thirds of the
farms. The advent of the bathtub,
the indoor toilet, and other conven-
fences dependent upon running
water, bring not only release from
drudgery but a sense of pride and
ownership which is as important a
factor in a woman's success in her
daily round of work as is modern
machineryTin the success of farm
The three important principles to
consider in the subject of water sup
ply for the farm home are: 1t is
necessary to have clean water; there
should be convenient and serviceable
equipment to furnish running water
in the house; and this convenient
supply of safe water should be Sc
cured with economy.

In Europe the goat is often spoken
of as "the poor mans cow" With us
in America the animal has been con-
sidered more as an >unfailing source
Of ridicule than as a milk producer
of real value. The goat is naturally
adapted for the use of those fami-
lies who find it impossible to keep
a COW because of limited space or
an insufficient supply of feed for the
larger animals. There are many SUBJ
urban homesteads and not a few
farms in this country where milk
goats could be kept at a profit. One
animal of good milking qualities will
supply an average family with fine
quality milk for the greater part of
the year.
How Much Milk?
About the first question that per-
spective goat buyers ask is chow
much milk will goat give?" A doe
with an average production of 2
quarts a day for seven or eight
months is considered a good animal.
Three quarts is thought to indicate
an excellent animal. Reliable au-

ment is a poor one, say rural engi-
neers of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Plan first OF
all to do the necessary work to give
thoroughly clean surroundings; next
secure the proper material to protect
the we'll. By inquiry as to local
prices of material and labor the cash
outlay needed can be easily deter
mined In the majority of cases it
will be found that the well or spring
can be located and protected by the
use of material available on the
farm, such as old bricks, stones, etc,
with a cash outlay for little except
cement, or, in case Of a bored well.
for iron casing. The same principle
should be applied in planning the
water supply equipment. All ma
terial and labor available on the
farm or in the locality should first
be utilized, and only such cash ex-
penditure should be made as is nee
essary to make the system complete,
serviceable, and convenient, but this
practice should not be carried to the
extent of using poor material which
will later give trouble in the opera
ton Of the plant. Farmers Bulletin

to the selection of sources of water
supply and pumping and storing wa
ter for home use.

Home Water System
Saves Farm Women
Observation-Disclosures

1t is frequently said that running
water is the pivot upon which much
modern convenience and comfort
turns, but in a recent farm-home
survey, made by the United States
department of agriculture and the
state agricultural colleges in %
northern and western states, only 81
per cent of the farm homes report
having running water, that is, water
drawn from faucet, and possibly
available for use in other rooms be-
sides the kitchen. SiXty-five per cent
of the homes have water in the
kitchen only, that is, supplied di-
rectly from a pump or possibly by
means of rubber hose attached to
a barrel located inside or Ontside of
the kitchen. However, in 60 per cent
of the homes there is a sink with
drain, even though in many cases
the water used has to be carried into
the house by the pailful. In 81
per cent of the 6.511 homes into
which the water must be carried this

The first and most important con-
sideration is to get supply of clean
water. By clean water is meant wa
ter which is both clear and pure.
Good farm water supplies are usu-
ally obtained from wells, springs,
and cisters. Water from wells on
farms is frequently contaminated
and contains the source if disease.
Contaminated water may be the
cause of outbreaks of typhoid fever,
dysentery, and other intestinal dis
orders among members of the fam
lily.
Purity First Consideration
From the standpoint of economy,
all local conditions which would have
a bearing on obtaining clean water
and putting it into the house with
convenient ad serviceable equipment
should be determined. No matter
how cheap the system, If the water
is not clean or the equipment is not
serviceable or convenient, the invest
