or following cotton. Use complete fer
tilizer, and lime land.
Second Year-Peas on wheat stub
BILE
Third Year-Wheat after peas. Use
phosphate (and in some sections pot
ASH. If land is not lined the first year
apply about two tons Of pulverlzed
limestone per acre. Seed to clover.
Fourth Year-Clover hay.
Clover seed, or pasturage.
If the farmer is unable to carry out
plan of this kind, he may follow
corn or cotton with rye as winter
crop to be turned under in the spring.
This will protect the SOIL and add hu-
mus. Then crop of soy beans or peas
should follow the rye crop; or the
land may be planted in corn and sown
in crimson clover at last blowing.
A Good Way to Start.
Where peas have been sown be-
tween corn rows the land may be
turned this fall and sown in wheat.
Upon such ground all the manure that
can be made and saved on the farm
should be placed, and if the land is
lined there need be no fear about Sc
curing a StdnQ OF Ieu CIONcl SOWll III
early spring. Lime is necessary to sue
cess with clover and other legumes.
Most of our soils need lime. When IN
doubt use it.
With this start, and with the cult
waited land divided into four equal
parts, four years rotation OF crops
NAV then begin with the absolute GER
tainty of increasing prosperity. With
clover fields and pastures the farmer
NAV have more stock and more man
ure, and he should see that his forage
crops are fed to the best breeds that
he can buy.
The raising of beef cattle will be
a paying business by the time he is
prepared for it, and he wants some
thing better than scrub stock.
Hog raising is always profitable Tor
the farmer who will secure some good
breed, such as the Berkshire, Poland
China. Hampshire or Duroc, and pro-
vide good pastures for them. i,
Observation and experience teach
that improvement in the business o.
farming may be made by this methoc
and the writer knows OF none better
for general farming in the south.

The same business methods by
which success is attained in other pur-
suits will make farming success. We
must start right, and keep going.
The first thing to be done on most
farms of the southland no progress
can be made until it is done-is to in
crease the producing power OF the
soil. The farmers capital is in the
fields he cultivates.
He should receive for his products
something near their value at the point
of consumption. Too much cannot be
said in favor of cooperative market
ing. 1t brings in more money; put
No system of marketing can be OF
much help to the farmer who Guilt
Yates poor land and makes no effort
to improve it.
He must raise good crops and good
stock in order to profit by good prices;
And he should keep books, and
know what it costs to do business,
the crops and stock that pay, and
what is raised at loss-chargIng
against the stock the cost of fertillz-
ers, seed, preparation, planting, cult
walton. harvesting, marketing, iced,
care, etc; and on the credit SIDE all
that is received from sales OF crops
dairy and meat products, and the val,
lie of everything stored or consumed
at home.
System on the Farm.
The successful farmer-the man
who makes farming pay, and knows
why-has a system that includes SOL
Improvement, rotation, marketing and
accounting in its program.
He has answered for himself three
questions relating to all farming, oper-
ations-Why, When, How? He knows
what should be done, when it should
be done, and how to do it. Backed by
such knowledge, energy and enterprise
can win in every agricultural sector,
of the south, despite the boil weevl
and other drawbacks.
The farmer who has not made the
right start should lay plans now tof
active soil improving work.
A rotation of crops IS necessary &c
success.
He may take the following as a good
four-year plan. ,,,.

SECRET BALLOT LAW
PASSED BY HOUSE
AUSTRALIAN SYSTEM SEEMS
ASSURED FOR ELECTIONS
IN GEORGIA.

The Australian ballot law was pass
ed by the house of representatives on
Thursday by vote OF l29 to Is. The
measure was passed by the senate at
the session of the legislature last year.
Before its passage the measure was
amended so that violations Of its pro-
visions would be made misdemeanors
instead of felonies, and two sections
nroviding that two consecutive grand
iuries would have the right to make
the law either active or inactive in the
various counties were stricken.
The law provides for secret ballots
in every county in the state, such as
have been used in Fulton, Bib, Mus
cogee and other of the larger counties
for several years. 1t is required that
voting booths be erected, separate
from other buildings, and that no per
son be permitted to approach within
10 feet of a booth while a voter is
marking his ballot, with the exception
of the regular election officers, who
are authorized to instruct voters upon
request.
Smaller Railroad Board.
A bill will be offered in the senate
by Senators Brown, Thomas and
Walker to reduce the railroad COM
mission from five members to three
members.
From and after August %" states
the bill, 'the railroad commission OF
Georgia shall consist OF three mem
bers to be elected by the qualified
voters of the whole state who are en-
titled to vote for members OF the gen
era1 assembly, said election to be held
under the same rules and regulations
as apply to the election of governor
of the state; and said commissioners
shall be elected at the first general
election preceding the expiration OF
their terms of office respectively"
Would Limit County Taxes.
A bill introduced by Senators Go
1ucke of the Nineteenth, and Clay OF
the Thirty-ninth would prohibit any
county in Georgia from levying taxes
| for any and all purposes in excess OF
fifteen mills. This is a constitutional
amendment and would be submitted
to the people at the next general cleo
ton in event of its passage.
Discussing the measure Senator Clay
declared it was designed to pull a
great many of the counties out OF the
hole financially.
Electric Chair Favored.
Substitution of the electric chair
for hanging as the method of putting
to death condemned prisoners in cap
ital cases has been recommended by
the house judiciary committee. The
bill was introduced by Representative
Perkins of Muscogee. 1t provides that
the state shall install an electric chair
at Milledgeville, equipped with all APP
planes for executing prisoners con-
demned to death.
Wants Pistols Destroyed.
Senator Frank Manson, of the Thrr
tv-ffth, will introduce in the senate
bill providing for the destruction O
firearms or other dangerous weapon!
taken from persons arrested on charges
and convicted and from those carrying
a weapon without a license.
