Dear Folks: 1 suppose all the
housekeepers and mothers in our
circle are feeling that fatigue that
always follows the holidays. 1t is
hard to pull up and straighten
things out. However, I have found
by experience that it is much hard
err later if 1 let things go.
Here is a suggestion that has
helped me. Always there are boxes,
strings, ribbons, paper and often
cards and tags left over. These L
put carefully away, list them in
blank book which is kept in my desk
for reference. The next year it is
easy to turn to this and find out
quickly just where these things are
stored, and what 1 have to start
with. 1t has proven an economy
and time saver.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
r. ANDREW M. SOULE

the sheep would have to jump. This
violent exercise may cause abortion.
A eve is apt to injure herself in this
manner. Combination hay racks and
grain troughs can be built perma-
nently around the wall. When this
is done, the hay rack should be solid
when eating, so that hay, chaff,
leaves, ETC., will not fall into the
wool.
Every flock owner should be pro
vided with low panels or hurdles
with which to make pens in one
corner of the shed for the ewes at
lambing time.
The Merits of Nitrate of Soda
Discussed
D. j. T., Williamson, S. c.,
writes l am thinking of going
to Tennessee to buy some of that
government nitrate of soda that
is to be sold for agricultural pur-
poses. Kindly advise me if this
soda is as good for the produc-
ton of cotton as is the soda that
we get from Chile.
The government nitrate of soda to
be sold in Tennessee for agricultural
purposes is presumably some that
was purchased by the government
during the war time, and is still on
hand. If we are correctly informed
about this matter, this nitrate of
soda came from Chile and is, there
fore, of the same grade as that you
would obtain through any other COM
mercial agency which might be en-
gagged in the direct importation of
this material FROM the Chilean re-
public. No doubt the government
will provide you with an analysis of
the product they have to sell, and
you can, therefore, determine the
composition of it for yourself. The
nitrogen content is very readily
available as you doubtless know. It
is an excellent material to use un.
der crops where you wish to stimu-
late rapid growth and rapid devel-
opment. 1t is one of the carriers of
nitrogen most largely used in asso-
citation with the growth of truck
crops. 1t can also be mixed with a
complete fertilizer and incorporated
with the soil with excellent results
In growing cotton under boil weevil
conditions, one of the things to do is
to push the plant forward as rapidly
as possible. On that account, nitrate
of soda can often be used to advan-
tage for that purpose.

In match play when a dispute
arises over some question of rule,
what is the proper manner to reg
lister a complaint and get a de-
cision on the point in question?
If dispute arises on any point,
the player desiring to enter a pro-
test must make a claim before GO
ing to the tee of the next hole, or
if the dispute arises on the last
hole, the claim must be made be-
lore leaving the last green. 1t is
customary for all such claims to
be laid before the committee in
charge of the tournament immed-
lately upon completion of the
round.
If upon reaching the putting
green you discover your ball is
lying in casual water, has player
the right to lift the ball without
penalty and drop it where the
ual water will IN no way interfere
with the next stroke? Is it neces-
sary to lift the ball in such a sit
uatlon or can the player play the
ball as it lies in casual water?
Player can play the ball as it lies
or lift and replace it either behind
the water, within two club lengths
OF where it lay, or in such a posi-
ton, not nearer the hole, that Won
will have line of putt without
interference from casual water
mere IS no penalty.
Ball strikes electric grass NOW
er being used on the fairways, anC
SO lodges in the mower that it is
carried along. From where snar
tfie player whose ball was carried
away, play his next shot, and is
snere any penalty connected with
such a happening?
Player has the right to drop &
ball without penalty at the spo-
where the ball net moving object.
and was carried along. 1t is usually
an easy matter for the player tx
agree upon the spot where the
ball should be dropped.

ALL CITY DUMPS MAY BE EMJO|NED ]
City Officials Hear Reports That Drastic Steps Are
 Contemplated

City officials were somewhat startled Friday morning by a hint that was let fall to the effect that inJunctions will be sought to pro- hibit the further use of any dump within the city limits.
 No one would stand sponsor for the statement, but many had heard it.
 Recently the Concrete Steel Prod ucts company besought the circuit the further use of a dump near it's place of business. The plant of the company here Is branch of a great corporation with places of business in many cities. It was stated, Fri day, that several of the highest of- ficials of this institution had visited Birmingham recently and given in- structions to have the litigation pressed to abate the nuisance In the neighborhood of their property.
 Complaints have been received from railroads whose lines pass near one of the dumps, and many citizens have from time to time besought relief from the menaces of several sorts emanating from the garbage disposal areas. It was said at the city hall Friday that a survey of the situation has been ordered in regard to the cost of installation of an incinerator system.
 An effort was made to locate Com missioner W. F. Dickson, who has charge of the street and garbage de- partments of the municipality. In his office 1t was said the commissioner was out of town for several days and 1t was not known where he had gone

Commission Seeks Relief From Periodical Flood
 Conditions

Ways and means are being sought by President McLendon of the city commission to improve the sewerage system in the downtown and other sections of Birmingham. Some time ago a survey was ordered and this report is expected to be submitted within 8 short time.
 For years parts of the business sec ton have been subject to heavy dam age during and after heavy rains, many places Of business being flooded, due to the inadequate pro- visions for the taking away of water. in some instances In parts of the oity the heavy rains have completely upset sanitary sewerage, causing hardshlps in the neighborhoods where the trouble occurs.
 Present and past boards of com missioners have had the matter up before but the Improvements neces- sary have usually been reported as costing so much the work of renova- tion was not undertaken.
 The report of the survey when made, will be considered by the full membership of the commission and an effort made to finance the work recomm ended.
