Substituting Livestock for Cotton
in North Georgia

There is an impression that advise
to the effect that cotton acreage
should be reduced in north Georgia
is of little service unless some ade-
quate plan for using the acres thus
set free is devised. This constitutes
sound reasoning, and to that end an
attempt has been made to present
for the benefit of our readers infor-
nation that will help in the solu-
ton of this very fundamental prob
lem. The transference of a part of
the energy we have been devoting to
cotton cultivation to stock produc-
ton is not as difficult or complicated
an undertaking as many seem to
suppose. In certain instances we
would, of course, need more fences.
These, however, need not have to
be built all at once. Moreover,
there is enough material available
on most farms to build the neces-
sary fences at comparatively small
outlay for wire. Begin in a small
way and enlarge the operation, is a
good motto to follow out at this
time.
Some, no doubt, believe that it
would cost great deal of money
to buy the necessary livestock, but
again they would be mistaken, be-
cause the investment needed to Sc
cure one or two more brood sows
is not large, especially if the pigs
are bought when they are young
and grown out with the food sup
plies available on the farm.
1t will not cost much to buy
setting of eggs if the present strain
of chickens is not satisfactory. or
course, in a single season the flock
may be enlarged to satisfactory
degree, therefore, with a very small
initial monetary outlay.
The dairy phase of the farm enter
prise which has been suggested as
practicable may be taken up grad
ually. Sour cream may be shipped
from one cow to begin with. Other
cows may be added as circumstances
warrant.
It is entirely feasible, therefore,
to use a part of the acreage previ-
cusly devoted to cotton in north
Georgia for the development\of ami
nal enterprises which should prove
profitable and help not only to sup
ply the farm home with an ade-
quate supply of milk and butter,
but to provide our towns and cities
with what they need as well. The
plan of procedure we advise is indi-
Gated below.
The lack Of fences is a handicap
to the growing of hogs in the Pied
mont section. This section cannot
compete with south Georgia-pr the
corn belt in hog production unless
the natural advantages are utilized
to the utmost. That means that
the hogs must be grown chiefly on
permanent pasture and grazing
crops.
Alfalfa is one OF the best perma-
nent pasture crops for the Piedmont

the first crop for hay and let the
second crop develop for seed. In
this way you can gather LIS to 2
tons Of hay per acre in a single
of seed as well. There will also be
some aftermath left which can be
grazed down by hogs or cattle to
advantage. Warren's Extra Early,
New Era, Brabham, and Iron, are all
good standard sorts to plant.
In cutting peas you may use an
ordinary moving machine. Rake
them into heaps and cure in racks.
You can thresh them with a thresh-
ing machine from which the con-
caves have been removed, and which
should be run slowly. There are
pea threshing machines on the mar
ket. If you are going into a bust
ness of this kind it might pay you
to buy one of these.
Peas, if stored and kept for any
considerable length of time, should
be treated with carbon bisulphide
for the destruction of the weevil.
The treatment should be repeated
in a few days to destroy any wee
wills which may hatch out after the
first treatment. II carbon bisul-
phide is properly and systematically
used damage by the weevil can be
minimized or eliminated altogether.
Cowpea hay contains 1871 per cent
digestible crude protein, 1877 per
cent digestible carbohydrates. and
/ per cent digestible fat. AS the
peas contain large percentage OF
the protein it is evident that the
vines themselves would not be rich

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
BY Or. ANDREW NJ SOULE

considerably more than the average
Piedmont two-mule farm now has,
but with five acres in crops to be
grazed and the cotton acreage re
duced to 10, it is believed this much
can be taken care of. The plan as
outlined is intended to be suggestive
of possibilities for the farmer OF
limited means getting a start in the
hog business. In adapting it to in
dividual farms, numerous modifica-
tons will suggest themselves.
The Hog. and Cotton Farm.
For the farmer who has gotten
a start with hogs and is making
them an important part Of his bust
ness, the plan outlined in table V
is recommended. Cotton and hogs
are the two principal. sources of
income. The crops listed and the
acreages suggested will provide for
the maintenance of the farm and
furnish feed and grazing for four
soWs and their progeny. If two lit
tiers averaging five pigs each are
raised per year, there would be 40
hogs per year. With good manage
ment and careful selection OF breed
ing stock, this number could be ma
terially increased.

Cowpeas, soy beans, velvet beans
or peanuts should be grown in the
corn, and when possible cover crops
should be put in for soil improve
ment.
This plan provides for the main
tenance OF the farm, feed for two
sows and their progeny, estimated
at 20 pigs, and IL acres of cotton,
five acres of surplus oats and five
and one-half acres of some one other
cash crop. Sixty-three acres Of Gull
tivated land are required. This is
Atlanta tri-weekly journal. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1920-19??, 1922-01-24

This system requires so acres OF
crop land and II acres of pern1a-
nent pasture. Soil building crops
such as cowpeas, soy beans and vel
vet beans should be grown in the
corn, and cover crops should be
planted wherever possible. The two
acres Of sorghum are planted aften
the oats, wheat and rye. 1t PR
vides an emergency feed in case of
a drouth making the other pasture
short.
The Dairy and Hog Farm
In many parts of the Piedmont
Section, interest is being aroused in
dairying. We are not attempting
here to suggest plans for the strictly
dairy farmer, because the boil Wee
vii has not forced him to make any
material changes in his plans. But
many cotton farmers who are To-
Gated within shipping distance OF q
creamery will be in position to buy
few COWS Or take better care OF
the ones they have and ship sour
cream. 1t is not expected that a
large per cent Of farmers will adopt
this system of farming, but for the
benefit of those located close to a
creamery and who have or can get
the cows, the cropping plans are
suggested.
THO acreage of crops suggested
will furnish maintenance for the
farm, feed for two extra cows, and
two sows, making a total of four
soWs on the farm, two soWS and
their progeny of II pigs, and
flock of rs hens. It also provides for
eight acres of cotton. There are
three main sources of income on
this farm-cotton, hogs and cream.
In addition, there will be sales OF
poultry and eggs and possibly some
other products. -

The best method of planting cow
peas from our point of view is to
sow them in drills. These drills may
be anywhere from sixteen to TWEEN
ty-four or thirty inches apart.
When the seed is put down regu-
larly and covered ito a uniform depth
a better stand is secured in a short
err period of time, less seed is re-
quired, and if the season is unfa-
vorable cultivation may be practiced
so as to keep the surface Of the
ground broken and promote fairly
rapid and uniform growth.
In growing cowpeas commercially
we would plant them as early in the
season as practicable. We would
use an early maturing variety. Cut

CONFLICT BETWEEN
CHRIST AND CAESAR
Rev. Roy Nj. HoughtOn, Recently Re-
turned from Europe, Says Two
Ideals Struggle for Mastery.

A recent issue of the New Haven
Journal-Courier published van extended
account of a sermon preached by Rev.
Roy M. Houghton, pastor of the Church
of the Redeemer, formerly pastor of the
Centre Congregational church here. in
which he expressed his faith in Christian
ity tot prevent another world war.
Rev. Mr.. Houghton who returned early
in September from a tour of Europe said
there are two conflicting ideals struggling
for mastery-one the Christian ideal
which recognizes the leadership of Jesus
Christ and places devotion to Him above
all other interests, and the other the idea
of selfish. materialistic nationalism.
which exalts race above humanity and
finds its only security in the implements
of war. He says it is the age-long con-
fict between Christ and Caesar and if
the latter ideals dominate there is no
hope for the civilization of Europe. The
only hope for Europe is the dominance
of the Christian ideal.
He declares that it la because our
minds sre armed that material arma-
ments linger on the field. The greatest
enemies to Europe and to the world are
lurking fears. suspicious and want of
confidence He appeals for mental dis
armament in the conference and in all
the churches. Christian people are called
to greater loyalty to their churches in
attending the services, in learning the
mind of Christ. and in making Christ $
spirit the ruling motive of peoples lives.
Europe can ba saved only by the spirit
of Christ, he declares.

gree last night for the shooting of Miss
Edith NJ. LavCy, a Freeport school
teacher. .--
The death of Miss Lavoy occurred on
the night of June %. 1922. at Freeport,
y. Y. and Greasy was indicted by the
Nassau county grand jury shortly aft
erwards. He went on trial at Mineola
on Sept. is.
The prosecution sought to prove that
Greasy had shot the FreepOrt school
teacher when she Tilted him. The de-
Tense contended that she committed sui
eide in despair when he broke off their
romance Greasy said she had shot her
self with his revolver in her FreepOrt

Letters written to him by Miss Lavoy
figured largely in the case. In those of
early date she spoke often of their ro-
nance and addressed him by endearing
terms Later letters. written shortly
before her death, indicated that she no
longer loved him and wished to be rid
of him. The defense called a handwrit-

Albert r. Klein Seeks TO Recover So,
100000 Equity-Alien Property
CustOdians Involved.

SPRINGFIELD. Mass. Oct. IA
hill of complaint in which Albert r.
Klein. brother of Gustav Klein, one of
the princinal stockholders in the Bosch
Magnetic Co.. seeks to recover in equity
S2.000.000, was filed in supreme court,
WestchpSter county. \. Y, yesterday.
The defendants in the action are: a.
Mitchell Palmer. former alien property
custodian: Francis Z. Caravan, his sue
cessor to that office; Martin e. Kern,
the buyer of the Bosch Magnetic Co. in
1918. and the American Bosch Magnetic
corporation. the present company. Serv-
ice of the summons in this case was
made about year ago. The proceed
ings have been kept alive by mutual
stipulation.
The complaint in the Klein suit sets
forth that at the time of seizure of the
Bosch Co bv the alien property Gus
todian 95 shares of the capital stock
was listed on the books as the property
of Gustav Klein. Gustav. it declares
died in March. 1917, several days before
the declaration of war between the
United States - and Germany and seven
months before the placing in force of the
trading with the enemy act under which
the seizure and ultimate sale were con
summated.
On the death of Gustav. the Bosch
stock passed to AdOlph, who. the com
nlaint sets forth was "a resident of the
United States and a friendly alien, who
had never been informed nor declared
an enemy. For this reason. the com
plant goes on. the stock ceased to be
enemy property and had become the
property of Il friendly alien and were
not subject to the provisions of the trad
ing with the enemy act.
