RADIO AMATEURS WRECE
PLANTS INITIATING STUNTS

Maj. Gen., George o. Squire, Chief
of the Army Signal Corps, sent for
newspaper men several days ago and
gave a demonstration of radio tele-
phone operation simply by connect
ing the apparatus with his electric
table light.
When the details of Gen. Squire's
experiment were published large
percentage of the smaller radio op-
orators Immediately came to the
conclusion that what General Squire
could do they could do.
The newspaper accounts did not go
into technical details of General
Squire's method and the amateurs
concluded that they would no longer
have to fool with antenna and other
wires, but need merely connect their
machine with the electric light
socket.
Electric lighting plants in various
cities were nearly disorganized,
thousands of homes were made light
less for days, electricians have done
! a land-office business repairing
damages, electrical dealers have been
Iswamped with orders for new fuses,
and worst of all, thousands Of am
ateur radio owners have had their
machines completely wrecked.
The surprising results obtained
were due to the fact that the anna
teurs overlooked the little detail
that an electric light circuit gives
10 or more volts, while radio ma
chine is built to take about six volts
Something had to give. Usually it
was the fuse Sometimes it was the
machine and sometimes it was some
thing else.

MOST ATTRACTIVE OFFERINGS
IN LOCAL STORES

From time to time THE NEWS
has called attention to tho excel
lent opportunities offered intending
purchasers in getting their goods
from PARIS stores. We have told of
the splendid lines carried by the
local houses, and that there was no
reason in the world why home peo-
pie should not trade at home, all
things being equal, when prices
were reasonable.
We are now calling attention Of
the buying public to the fact that
the local stores are stocked for the
spring and summer trade as they
never were before. The spring
trade has made a good start here.
This is due to two things, the first
being that the stock of goods car
ried by the Paris merchants were
never better than to-day, and the
second, because the farmers finan-
cial outlook is decidedly improved,
thanks to the cooperative tobacco
markets and many other reasons.
The prices of his grain and stock
are advancing, and If there is good
crop this year in 1922 he will be
back on the soundest basis that he
has attained since the war period.
THE NEWS is not indulging in
idle fattery-it never does that
when it declares that the offerings
in the local stores are the most at
tractive of any shown in recent
years, and the increasing number OF
persons trading in Paris shows that
the buyers have already discovered
that fact.
Trade At Home is the slogan
adopted by the Paris Commercial
Club. We are firm believers in that
But at the same time we admonish
the Paris merchants to keep their
stocks up to the standard, and make
their prices such that trade will be
attracted here to Offset that which

drive to other markets.

States Must Fix Price
Of Consumers Coal

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.--The major
responsibility for the price at which
coal Is sold to consumers by the whole
salers or retailers within the states
must rest with the state authorities,
Federal Fuel Distributor Spens de-
clared tonight in a telegram to the
Governors.
The Federal government, nc informed
the governors, "has no jurisdiction as
to coal produced and sold within tho
state of It's production, retail or whole
sale margins or handling coal within
these states. Responsibility as to these
features must rest with the state au-
thorities, and If profteering in coal
is to be prevented, except as to coal
that may be moved across state lines
at extortionate prices, the proper rem
edy must be applied by the state au-
thorities."
Upon the Federal authorities, Mr..
Spens explained. falls the duty of de-
termining in which part of the country
there is shortage of coal, where pro-
duction is to be distributed, the prices
usually charged, and whether current
prices are just and reasonable, and
what consumers should receive priority
on transportation.
1t appears necessary he asserted, that
state organizations be created where
they do not now exist, which will in
vite cooperation in meeting the emer-
gency and will fix reasonable margins
for retailers and wholesalers.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.Miss Luz
cille Atcherson, of Columbus, Ohio,
the first woman ever named in this
country for a diplomatic position,
failed of confirmation in the last min
utes of the Senate session.
Miss Atcherson was appointed by the
President as secretary of embassy, class
four. Her nomination came up in "a
eeutive session of the Senate Friday,
with large number of other .nomina-
tions. 1t was blocked by an objection.
Senator John Sharp Williams, of Mis-
sissippi, is unofficially credited with
making the objection that headed off
the confirmation, 1t is understood her
nomination will again be made in the
recess and eventually she will be con-
firmed.
Joseph W. Tolbert, prominent Re-
publican politician and member of the
National Republican Committee, who
was appointed United States Marshal
for the western district of his state,
was not confirmed, This confirmation
was stopped by Senator Dial, of South
Carolina, who. made charges some
weeks ago against Tolbert, and accused
the Tolbert machine of trafficking in
Federal patronage.

be planted March LIST to 18th, sweet
potatoes May list to S0th, and velvet
beans with corn March 18th to 30th.
The time of planting will vary with
the season of the year. If you pre-
fer you may use cowpeas instead of
soy beans, on the red lands of the
state. This crop makes an excellent
yield. On sandy soils peanuts will
give the best returns.
CoWpeaS contain about 1914 per
cent digestible protein, 54.5 per cent
carbohydrates and IL per cent fat.
Soy beans contain SOL per cent di-
gestible protein, 22.S per cent di-
{ r~tible carbohydrates, and 14.4 per
cent digestible fat. 1t is note
worthy, therefore, that the soy bean
makes a much richer hay than the
coWpea. On that a cunt it is most
important that it be fed with non
leguminous hay to work stock. Soy
beans will out-yield cowpeas in the
matter of hay production. The stalks
are much coarser and, therefore, not
so readily eaten by livestock. The
soy bean is a very excellent crop to
Use in Georgia. The OToo-Tan va,
riety is very good strain to cul-
tivate.
The Mung bean is a crop of some
promise, but has not been cultivated
on a sufficiently extensive basis yet
to justify us in recommending its
general use throughout the state

Legumes Adapted for Grazing Hogs.

Leghmes Adapted for Grazing Hogs.
J. Fl. W., Conner, Ga, writes:
mat is the best legume to
plant for the summer grazing
of hogs? How does the quality
of soy bean hay compare with
cowpea hay? What do you
think of the Mung bean?
Where one expects to raise hogs
on grazing crops it is best to take a
well-selected area of land and fence
1T up permanently. The size of the
area selected will depend on the
number of sows and their progeny
to be carried. Eight brood sows
and their filters can be grazed sue
cessfully for the greater part of the
year on fifteen acres of land. Five
acres should be in permanent pas
ture. There is nothing better to
use for this purpose than Bermuda
& lss in which lespedeza can be
sown. Vetch can also be planted in
such pasture in the early fall. In
the northrn part of the state we
would advise the rao of hairy vetch,
and in the southern part of the
state the Oregon Vetch. The re-
mainder of the land can be divided
into four areas of 2.5 acres each.
For spring planting you may SOW
rape any time from October 18th to
February 18th. Millet and sorghum
may be sown any time after April

earlier in south Georgia. Peas NAV

will be done in spare moments, and
very likely good deal of it will
be accomplished by the women and
children of the household.
A satisfactory garden should be
level, we'll drained, and so situated
as to secure plenty of sunlight. A
sandy, loamy soil with a southern
exposure is ideal. However, If one
cannot have such location make
the best Of the situation, whatever
that may be. One can do much to
overcome the drawbacks associated
with an undesirable site through
good management.
A garden soil should be plowed
as early in the spring as the ground
will permit. The frequent stirring
of the surface of the land is consid-
cred good practice. In this way
soil particles are thoroughly pulver-
lied and level, uniform surface pre-
pared for the seed bed. One of the
best fertilizers to use in the gerden
is yard manure. There is very lit

to withhold the application of this

applied as a top dressing and har-

1t may also be applied to drill rows
after cultivation begins.
