cultivation in this section OF Geor-
gia You may plant the seed
shelled, or in the pod. 1t takes about
two bushels of seed in the pod to
plant an acre. The North Carolina
or runner" variety of peanut is
well-suited for hog grazing, but is
inferior to the white Spanish for
Smelling or for crushing, Peanuts
may be planted and handled with the
equipment found on every cotton
farm. In addition, a planter, weeder
and picker will need to be purchased.
A picker may. however, be made
to serve a whole community just as
a grain thresher. Peanuts require
less work than cotton. 1t is a good
practice to fertilize this crop with
two to three hundred pounds of
kainit per acre. Peanuts, as a rule,
are planted on the level and not on
ridges as with the case of cotton.
The rows are ordinarily made about
two and one-half to three feet apart.
Plant the nuts from four to six
inches in the rows. The larger the
number CT plants, the larger the
yield per acre. Where unshelled seed
is used, soaking in water several
hours before planting will hasten
termination. The cultivation of pea
nuts is similar to that of cotton ex-
cept that little dirt should be thrown
towards the plants. When the plants
begin to spike down, cultivation
should cease. Peanuts should be har-
vested when the majority of the pea
nuts are matured
Peanuts may be handled and sold
to the oil mills much as one would
handle cottonseed. AS peanuts yield
from eighty to eighty-five gallons Of
oil per ton. they should bring about
twice as much as cottonseed.
In this section of Georgia, we
would plant bunch velvet beans be-
cause of the fact that they will ma
ture earlier than any other strain.
They do not climb over the corn like
the extra varieties, but as these
strains require longer to mature. the
bunch variety is the one we would
recommend for cultivation in your
section of the state. We believe you
would find them about as satisfactory
as Brabham peas in so far as the
yield of grain is concerned. 1t is
important. that you secure, however.
genuine strain of seed, Velvet
beans are good soil improvers, and
can be used as valuable grain adj
junct in the finishing OF live stock
Brabham peas. of course, have a use
for human food purposes that velvet
beans do not possess.
You are certainly acting wisely in
diversifying your farm practice. We
still believe, however, that under the
best plan of procedure that the
farmers of Georgia can grow con.
siderable cotton to advantage, and
that it will still remain our chief
monetary crop. We believe that from
six to eight acres to the plow is the
right amount of cotton to plant pro-
vfved, of course, that systematic
fight against the weevil is inaugu-
rated and maintained throughout the
growing season.

HOW TO DARKEN
GRAY HAIR
A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to
Make a Remedy for Gray Hair.

A we'll known resident OF Cincin-
natl, Ohio, who has been barber for
more than forty years, recently made
the following statement:
Anyone can prepare a simple nnix-
ture at home, at very little cost, that
will darken gray hair. and make It
soft and glossy. To a half-pint OF
water add / ounce bay rum, g. small
box Of Barbo Compound and II ounce
glycerine. These ingredients can be
bought at any drug store at very lit
tie cost. Apply to the hair twice
week until the desired shade is oh.
tanned. This will make a gray-haired
person look twenty years younger.
It is easy to use, does not color the
most delicate scalp, is not sticky or
greasy and does not rub off"

are, the negro leader said in pre-
senting statistics of his church.
Crawford suggested that the SIT

Members of both races have been

This is the record of only one re-

where negro men and women were
enrolled as members.
Does it mean anything to you
Georgia men and women? When
the decent, good ones are all gone
there will be enough of the scuffs
(who are not thrifty to save travel
money)-that will remain. Will this
account for the increase in lynch
horrors, since 1912, even in Geor-
gia?
One OF the hottest midsummer
days I ever felt last year. l had oc-
casion to go to the depot in
my town on business. The morn
ing trains had all gone and there
would not be another passenger
train until nearly p. m.
The railroad men had big force
raising rails and putting new cross
ties. 1t was heavy work, and had to
be done instanter. Not a white
man did I see, save the overseers.
The sun was blazing hot and there
were sixteen colored men, drenched
with sweat, working like tigers to
get the track repaired. Doubtless
they had good pay-as they should
have received but said to myself
where could such workers be found,
if these strong men were not here
and willing to wOrk?''
California has many of the old
south's colored people-who have
moved there to live and to stay. Sew
eral colored workers, that were al
ways willing to serve me kindly and
with splendid service, moved from
my town and they will not return.

as laborers. And there are thousands
that were never moved from Cali
fornia when congress abrogated the
law admitting them. At my ad-
vanced age, these matters will not
be of great. personal moment to me
but I know enough about foreign
labor to say, that the good colored
people Of the old south were then,
and are still the best plain laborers
We have ever had in Georgia.

Planting Peanuts in North Georgia

Planting Peanuts in North Georgia
J. N. H, Atlanta, Ga, writes:
am considering planting about
two acres of peanuts to the
horse. If you think this is
good plan, I will appreciate any
information you can give me
concerning planting, cultivat-
ing, gathering and marketing of
peanuts. I propose to plant
some cotton but I want to pro-
duce enough other crops to pay
the expenses of my farm opera
ton in case the boil weevil de-
stroys my cotton crop.
There is no reason why peanuts
should not be grown to consider
able degree in north Georgia. Or
course, when prices are high it is
a profitable crop. Georgia is one of
the states which is specially we'll
adapted for the cultivation of pea
nuts, and it is on this account that
we could emphasize their cultivation
with advantage. On the other hand,
we may also overdo the cultivation
of peanuts.
am inclined to think that better
marketing facilities will be provided
for the peanut this year than has
-::ttherto pertained. AS you doubtless
know, there is a movement on foot
to organize peanut growers on
commodity basis and on a longtime
contract plan. There is every reason
to believe that this movement will
be successful. and, if that is done,
it will tend to help stabilize the price
of peanuts materially.
Peanuts of course, should be
planted on gray land. Several vari-
cites may be sown, but we are in
clined to think you will find the
white Spanish the best for general

Dear Children:
A letter from one of the cousins,

pecially the young people, in her
neighborhood, talked disagreeably
about one another, prompts me to
tell you again the story of the
down from the goose breast. Some
Of our new cousins may like to
hear it and it will help us all to
remember it.
Once upon a time q woman in
village, realizing how some scan
dial that she had repeated to many
people, was running the standing
of a family in her neighborhood,
repented Of her sharp tongue and
went to her minister to ask him
how she could take back all she
had said. He replied:
go out and get a large white
goose, pluck the feathers from her
breast, and when the wind is blow
ing go through the street scatter
ing them. When you have finish
ed this come back to me. She did
this and returned to the minister.
He then told her to go out and
gather up the down. o. she said,
4 can't. The wind blew it hither
and thither.' No more said he,
can you collect all the evil things
you have said
There is a big lesson. Remember.
you help no one by repeating evil
things and you hurt many.
