Preparing Bermuda Sod for
Winter Grains

J.. H. H. Newborn, G.,
writes: What preparation is
necessary for. Bermuda sod or
weed land to make good crop
of wheat and oats?
We do not believe you will find
it very practicable to plant cereals
on Bermuda sod without first turn
ing the land. We suggest that this
be done as soon as possible. We also
advise the rolling and narrowing OF
the land immediately thereafter.
This is to compact the soil, provide
Va firm seeded, and insure the NOV
ing of the water from the lower
areas of the land to the surface of
the soil. The land should be broken
to a good depth so as to bury the
Bermuda roots as deeply as possible.
The cereal crops will attain a good
growth during the fall, winter, and
early spring before the Bermuda re-
seeds itself. Naturally, the shade
produced by these crops will help
to hold the growth and development
of the Bermuda in check.
Land covered with weeds, which is
intended to be devoted to cereals,
should be handled just the same as
that covered with Bermuda sod. The
planting of wheat and oats should
be done as soon as possible. Seed
a bushel and a half of each of these
crops. On thin. poor land, it is
sometimes advisable to use two BUSH
els.
Three hundred pounds of acid
phosphate and 100 pounds of kainit
should be used It may be advisa-
BILE to top-dress this crop with nitrate
of soda next spring. This work
should be done in February or early
March. Nitrate of soda can often be
used~as top-dressing with great adj
vantage.

Danny Meadow Mouse Is Up in the
Air
With what you have pray be content,
Nor wish for things for you not
meant.
Danny Meadow Mouse.
Danny Meadow Mouse.

Danny Meadow Mouse crouched in
the farthest corner of a little cup
board in the great man-bird, which,
as you and l know, was an airplane.
His ears were filled with terrible
noise, a noise more terrible than any
he had ever heard in all his life. 1t
was worse than the worst thunder
he had ever heard, because there
was no end to it. So Danny crouch
ed in the corner of that little cup
board and was sure that the Great
World was coming to an end.
But nothing happened and after
a while Danny began to get used to
that terrible noise. 'NOise can't hurt
me-" he decided at last. Noise can't
hurt me. I'll peep out and see if that
man is in my way. If he isn't I'll get
out of here and back home as fast
as my legs can take me"
So Danny peeped out around the
edge of the little door, which was
part way open. He looked all about
him hurTiedly. The man was close
to him, but his back was to him and
he seemed very busy about some
thing. He didn't look back at all.
Danny Ventured out a few steps and
then his courage failed him and he
darted back. He did it again. He did
it a third time. Each time he felt a
little drawer. The fourth time he
scampered across and climbed up the
opposite side. He intended to jump
down to the ground as soon as he
reached the top.
Danny reached the top and poked
his head over to look down so as to
see where to jump. Then he fell
right back and landed with a little
thump on his back. There were two
reasons for this. One was that when
he had looked down, instead of find
ing the ground within jumping dis
lance just beneath him, he had dis
covered that it was so far below him
that he wouldn't have known it was
ground at all. The second reason was
that when he had poked his head
over the edge a terrible wind had
struck him and actually had blown
him back.

A BEDTIME STORY
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS

Mouse was the most frightened as
he scrambled back into that tiny
cupboard. For a while he was too
frightened even to think. But at last
when he able to think he knew
what had happened. He had been
carried away by that great man-bird!
He was up in the air! Yes. sir. he
was way, way, way, way up in the
air. He was up as high as ever he
had seen or Mistah Buzzard. The
mere idea of such a thing made
Danny shake all over with new
fright.
"Oh. dear! Or. dear! Whatever
shall I do?" he sobbed. whatever
shall do? L don't like flying! l
don't want to fly!'
Then Danny remembered how
sometimes he had envied the birds
because they could fly. He didn't
envy them any more. He wanted to
be on the ground, the dear, safe,
beautiful ground. Yes. sir, he want
ed this more than he lad ever want

Growing Sesame Under Georgia
Conditions

F. w. B., Atlanta, Ca,
writes: "Has sesame seed ever
been grown in Georgia? I un-
derstand that a considerable
quantity of imported seed is be-
ing crushed in Savannah and
the oil is being made into lard
compounds. Do you think this
crop is a practical one for the
cotton sections?"
Sesame, as I understand. is grown
on a minor basis in various places
throughout the state. L think most
of the crop is grown in south Geor-
gia. 1t is my understanding that
it is used primarily for chicken feed,
and certainly it is used for home
purposes. 1 am not advised that the
commercial production of this crop
has ever been undertaken in the
state. Probably the climate and
soil of south Georgia might suit it
quite well. Not enough has been
done along this line to enable one
to draw a very definite conclusion
relative to the merits of sesame for
commercial cultivation in the coastal
plains area.
1t is rather difficult to see how
this crop would have any advantage
over many others we are now grow
ing. | do not think it could be
expected to compete advantageously
with cottonseed as an oil or feed
producing crop, and certainly we
are going to hold to the production
of cotton on as extensive a basis
as enconomic conditions will war
rant. Then, of course, We can grow
peanuts in Georgia. 1t is a crop al
ready well established. In many
sections Of the state, soy beans can
be grown successfully. Both pea
nuts and soy beans yield a very
superior grade of oil and very
fine by-product for feeding to live
stock. Their general and wide
adaptability for cultivation in our
state gives them a great advantage
over any other crop. Under the cir
cumstances portrayed, we are in
clined to think our people would get
along much faster and secure larger
profits by adhering to the cultiva
Ition of the crops we have mentioned
above.

Dear Children:
This issue we will have something
about Indian villages and houses,
beginning with a quotation from
LongfelloW:
Every spacious was the wigwam,
Made of deer-skins dressed and
whitened,
With the Gods Of the Dacotahs
Drawn and painted on its cur
tains.'
Generally each tribe of Indians
lived in a single village; sometimes,
however, clusters of small tribes,
which had originally been indepen-
dent but through conquest, plague,
friendly removal or union had lost
their individuality, lived together un-
der the name of the leading group.
The majority of Indian villages con-
sisted of groups of small houses,
with each family having a house of
it's own; sometimes, however, a viii
lage had just a few houses, but with
as many as a hundred families liV-
ing in each house. The only other
buildings in the village were the
house where the men slept, the
D" IlAC NOu1lNAb CAACtAAANNA ,
and the sacred medicine lodge.
although we generally think Of
Indians living in wigwams, this was
not always the case-the Algonquin
was name for low, oval houses COW
cred with bark or brush-they had
four distinct types of houses, those
of stone, those Of mud (adobe), those
of wood, those of skins. Among the
Indians living in stone dwellings
were the Peublos, who cut great
holes in the side of rock cliffs. Each
family occupied a hole or room, and
reached it by means of a pathway
or stairs cut in the rock. Some In.
dams of the northwest had stone
houses; that is, the walls were stone,
the roofs were generally of whale
bore covered with bearskin.
1.-The tepee, used by the Araphao,
Blackfoot, Cheyenne, Crow and
other plains tribes, is the most
typical Indian shelter. It consists
of long slim poles placed to form
cone with their tops coming to-
gether; sometimes the poles were
covered with bark or mats, but more
often with the skins of wild ami
mails. No Indian houses had floors
save the bare earth, neither had
they chimneys nor windows. Practi-
cally all the dwellings were deco
rated with carvings. drawings, or
paintings of crescent moon, thun-
der-birds, snakes or whatever ami
mails were symbols of the tribes. The
medicine lodge had two poles in
front-the poles were cut and paint
ed with symbolic pictures, and top
ped with an effigy, much like a
scarecrow, as an offering to the
spirits"
Next week we will talk about the
Indian furniture and household
utensils. [ know this will interest
the girls.
Lovingly,
AUNT JULIA.
