AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
BY DR. ANDREW M. SOULE

| BILE to take up ana utilize the fer
tilizer acceptably during the grow
| ing season.
L. D. W., Jackson, Ca, writes:
I wish to know the best Varie.
ties for market and also the prop
er method of cultivation OF the
following: Cantaloupes, toma-
toes and celery.
Cantaloupes may be planted in
Georgia any time from March Is
to May /, depending on seasonal and
soil conditions. Cover the seed to
a depth of one to two inches. Plant
in rows AS feet apart. Leave the
hills three feet apart in the drill. It
takes about one ounce of seed to
fifty hills, or two or three pounds Of
seed per acre. Rocky Ford, Eden
Gem and Pink Queen are all desir-
able varieties. They mature in
eighty to ninety days. After a good
stand has been secured thin to two
plants to a hill.
Tomatoes may be started in
hotbeds in February, and the plants
set out anywhere from April to July.
The seed should be covered to a
depth Of about one.half inch. To-
matoes are best set in rows 3.5 to
feet apart, and the plants left three
to four feet apart in the drill. An
ounce of seed should be sufficient
to produce 1000 plants, and it will
take about four ounces of seed per
acre. Among the standard varieties
which may be cultivated with sue
cess in Georgia are the Stone, Earl
lana, Livingston and Beauty. To-
matoes mature in eighty 20 100
days. It is generally considered good
practice to stake and prune this
crop, though under field conditions
and on a commercial basis the plants
are often left to spread out over
the ground. Tomatoes should not
be planted on land where they were
previously grown, and every effort
should be made to get the most wilt
resistant strains possible for plant
ing.
Celery may be planted any time
from April to July. The depth to
plant is one-half to one inch. Plant
in 3.5 to 4-foot rows and leave the
plants eight inches apart in the
drill. One ounce Of seed will pro-
duce about 5000 plants, and one
half pound of seed will be sufficient
for an acre Of land White Plume,
Self Blanching, and Giant Pascal
are standard sorts. This crop re-
uuires 100 to 100 days in which to
mature. The seed should be sown
in moist soil, preferably in a cold
frame where they can be protected
until they are sufficiently developed
to transplant. This is a crop which
does best If developed so as to ma
ture in the late fall or early winter
in Georgia. We would not recon-
mend it as a commercial crop for
your section of the state. 1t could
be grown in small way, however,
for family or table use. 1t is a crop
which requires a good deal Of care

A $4,000 Necktie

''I am going south for the winter. Be-
fore leaving l want to thank you so much
for making 800, 900 In profits on bonds for
me this year." said a wealthy lady client
of bond house to the senior partner.
She went on effusively: Furthermore,
want to show my appreciation by giving
you present"
''That is not at all necessary, Mrs. -.
You can thank the bond market for your
profits" said the broker.
THAT may be, but 1t was your advice
and work that produced the profits and 1
must be permitted to show my apprecia-
ton," she replied.
The bond man decided to let 1t go at that
and bowed her out of his office.
A parcel was on his desk when he reached
the office next day. 1t contained a rather
lurid neckte together with the lady's card

The Practical Management of
Cranes

D. e, p, Jacksonville, Fla,
writes: I have farm in Eaber-
sham county, Georgia, and have
100 grape vines two and three
years old planted on the place,
consisting of Moore's Early,
Delaware and Niagara. Last
spring they were frozen down
three times, and, of course, they
did little last summer. How
would you fertilize and care for
they so they will make some
growth the coming summer?
Z 1t would be quite out Of the ordi-
nary for grape vines of the charac-
ter mentioned in your letter to be
injured by severe freezes three times
in succession in Habersham county,
Georgia. We do not think you are
likely to have this experience again
Tor a period of some years, though,
or course, weather conditions are
variable and uncertain, as we all
know.
Grape vines that are tender to
freezes can, of course, be protected
by burying them in the fall. 1t does
not take q very heavy coating OF
earth, and it is no great labor TO
detach them from the wires ana SO
cover them up as to effectively pro-
tect them. In our experience IN
grape production we have found IL
desirable to train the vines to Two
wires and leave, therefore, four snort
arms, two to be tied to each wire. we
generally place the wires two TO
two and a half feet apart, ana we
leave the arms which run out from
the main trunk about Is to "a inches
long The vines should be tied
closely to the supporting wires
which run through good stout posts.
The posts should be well braced at
each end so as to hold the wires rel
Rtively taut.
You should give a vineyard which
you desire to produce literally clean
cultivation in the early spring. You
may plant cowpeas or some truck
crop down the middles OF the rows
later on in the season. A cover
crop for the winter is desirable when
1t is practicable to have one. These
grape vines, on account Of the fact
that they have been frozen down,
and therefore do not show any con-
siderable growth or development,
should be literally fortified. We
would advise the use Of formula
containing 3.5 per cent of organic
and inorganic nitrogen in equal pro-
portions, 9 to 10 per cent phosphoric
acid, and to per cent potash. We
would apply this formula in circle
around the grape vines and mix it
well with the soil. We do not think
the use of five to ten pounds per
vine would be too much in view of
the circumstances described In your
letter. We would put this fertilizer
on about the time growth starts. In
other words, we would give the vines

Hon. LINDLEY NJ. GARRISON.
Secretary Of War.
It was clear from the presidents
letter and the attitude of Secretary
Garrison that there was to be no
meeting Of minds between the presi
dent and his secretary of war on
the matter of preparedness. Their
views could not be reconciled, and
when the president refused to sup
port Garrison's program, hook, line
and sinker, the secretary rendered
his resignation, which the president,
under the circumstances readily ac.
cepted. Immediately friends of Gar
rison declared that the administra
ton had lost its strongest nan and
that it was now on its way to de-
struction. Neither the president nor
his many friends. however. were dis
turbed by these direful prod c+io1s

THE TRUE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT
Period Of Good Will and Kindly
Thought for Others, Most I'M
portant on Calendar.

<A%HAT If, as ScrOOge-lke
Nv cynic intimates, the Christ
p mas spirit comes to us
but once a year, not even
he will attempt to assert
fhat we are not the better for 1t. Think
what it would mean if that period of
good will and kindly thought for
others were dropped from our calen-
dar. No blessed interruption to our
too generally self-centered lives: no
yearly oasis Of brotherly sentiment to
purge US, however temporarily, of self
ishness and cause us, If only for
few days to think of making others
happy.
Pre-eminently the children's festi-
val, as of right 1t should be since 1t
commentaries the nativity of the
Christ Child, It transforms us all,
whatever our years, into children Of
larger growth. We experience anew
the glad expectancy of childhood, the
thrill that far surpasses any realiZa-
tion, and find our greatest pleasure in
the simple childish emotions of love
and joy.
And this is the nOblest Christmas
gift, the gift Of the true Christmas
spirit that captures and takes pos

DUCKS KILLED BY OIL WASTE
Polluted Waters, II Is Declared, Have
Destroyed Thousands Of the
Finest Game Birds.

The destruction of thousands Of
game birds each season by their alight-
ing in ofl-polluted waters has been be-
fore the attention of sportsmen for
some time, and many efforts have been
made to remedy conditions in different
sections Of the country. A bulletin of
the American Game Protective associa
tion says that if the oil-burning trans-
atlantic and cOastwise steamers would
take the same view Of the matter as
the Northern Pacific railway we would
have little cause to worry about the
oil menace on tidal waters.
For years many birds have been
killed by the oil waste at round
house pump of the Northern Pacific
system at Las Vegas, New. The United
States bureau of biological survey took
the matter up with the company and
has been advised that conditions will
be remedied Immediately. The rail-
road company is installing an oikre-
covery plant at considerable cost,
which will not only eliminate the men-
ace to water fowl, but will prove
source Of revenue to the company in
utilizing materials that up to this tint
have gone to waste.

UNWORTHY RULER OF ROME
History Aecords Low Place to cemmo-
dus, Whom Fortune Caprlciously
Lifted to High Estate.

Commodus was a Roman emperor.
notorious for his cruel and vOluptu.
GUS character. He was endowed with
extraordinary strength, and often ap-
peared in imitation of Hercules
dressed in q lions skin and armed
with 4 club. To display his skill and
strength in arms he appeared publicly
In the amphitheater AS his oppo-
rents were armed with weapons of tin
or lead, while he was encased In i'm
penetrable ar1nor, he had naturally an
ensy victory on every occasion. For
his amusement he cut asunder per-
sons, put out their eyes, and mutilated
their noses, etc.
COmnodus was strangled by the
gladiator Narcissus, who was hired
to commit the deed by Marcia, the
mistress of Commodus. who had
plotted with members Of his official
family, to put him out Of the way.
When he died the senate declared him
an enemy of the state, ordered his
statues to be broken to pieces, and
his name to be erased from all public
inscriptions.-Detroit News.
