NEW ISLAND RISES,
TWO OTHERS LOST
EARTHQUAKE RES u Its IN
NEW LAND FORMATION OFF
THE COAST OF JAPAN.

A new island has arisen from the
sea off the coast of Japan near Ava,
as a result of the recent earthquake,
according to a radiogram from lwaki,
Japan, to the Nippu Jill newspaper.
The dispatch confirmed previous re-
ports that both the islands Of Enoshi-
ma and Oshima dropped back into
the sea and no trace of them can be
found.
Property Loss 843 Million.
1t is now agreed that the material
losses in Japan, estimates of which
have ranged as high as $4,000, 100000,
were grossly overstated in the first re-
ports of the disaster. The most ex-
haustive and what is regarded as the
most accurate survey of the damage
done has been completed by Howard
p. Moore, general manager OF the
Foreign Insurance Association. He
believes that the figure for damages
to property by earthquakes, hre and
food in Toxic and Yokohama should
be put at $843,213,750. He does not
believe the total will exceed $1,000
900 900.

FARM BOYS AT TOP

Only IS Per Cent of Men Taking Up
Ministry Are Pastors Sons.

Preachers sons are not as black as

and 200 students of the Garrett Bibli-

The social background of the clergy

A NEW FIRM THAT

THE COW, HOG AND HEN TO
SAVE THE DAY FOR AGRI-
CULTURISTS IN GEORGIA.

ATLANTA, Ga-Cow, hog and

agriculturists and editors sing at this
time of stress and turmoil-about the
little old firm of the COW, hog and
hen. This firm, according to reports
from many Georgia counties, and the
firm is growing with big profits to
both state and individuals.
1t stays on the job whether war or
pace prevails, whether dynast1es wax

go on the rocks or constitutional mon

every far1n-a form of broadcasting

will save the day for Georgia agri-

Mr. Wheeler has just returned from

day he said European nations are
cursed with drink more than with war

IF the money wasted for liquor
were turned into useful channels as
it is in the United States the financial
problems of these governments could
be solved with comparative ease.
England said Mr. Wheeler, is now
spending about so per capita annual

of homes by individuals has virtually
ceased.
He continued:

THE SOIL FERTILITY PROBLEM,

right kind Of crops are grown and
whether the manure is properly hand
led and returned to the fields. There
is nothing magical about live stock
farming as far as soil improvement IS
concerned and it can easily be allow
ed to degenerate into a soil robbng
system of farming. The chief value OF
a system of live stock farming for
soil Improvement lies in the fact that
it enables the farmer to market, prot
itably, soil improvement crops such as
hav. lepumes and small grains.
The loss OF fertility to the soil is
about twice as great when the whole
plant is removed from the fields as
hay, silage or roughage as when only
the grain is removed. To enhance this
heavy drain on the land it is neces-
sary for the live stock farmer to re-
turn to the fields the manure produced
by the animals he is feeding. Even
where care is taken in handling the
manure about half the fertility in the
feed is lost in passing through the an
imal and in handling the manure.
This will about balance the additional
roughage removed from the field by
the live stock grower with the added
advantage that it is in a more avail
able form.
1t can be seen from the above that
because farmer has live stock on his
place is no excuse for him to neglect
proper methods of increasing the fer
ti1ity of his soils He should keep his
fields in crops that will prevent leach
ing and washing as far as practical the
whole year round, grow legumes and
green manure crops whenever posi-
bic, use commercial fertilizer where it
is profitable, and always return the
manure to the fields.

One of the most serious problems
the Georgia farmer has to face IN
changing from cotton growing to 9th
err types of farming is the low fertill-
tv of our cotton soils, says K. +. Bled-
soc, agronomist, Georgia Experiment
Station, and continues: Cotton IS
unique in its ability to grow IN al,
most any type of soils when supplied
with sufficient commercial fertilizer.
This is not generally true of our other
crops. Here it is not only necessary
to have sufficient plant food tor the
growth OF the plants but also sum
cient organic matter to put the SOIL III
good filth and to increase ITS water
holding capacity. g
Because cotton will grow in soils
low in organic and in poor tilth mas
enabled the cotton farmer to grow
cultivated crop year after year without
winter cover crop. The result mas
been that the most OF our top soil mas
been washed into the sea and the cot
ton farmer is working in the subsoll;
Under Georgia conditions the ideal
cropping systems for soil improve
ment is one that keeps a crop on the
land the wear round Sown crops, such
as small grains, hay, etc, should be
used as much as possible. Some culti-
waited crops are desirable, to keep
down certain types of weeds, as mon
ey crops and for other reasons, but
thew should not be used too freely.
Legume crops should be grown when.
ever practical Terraces should be OF
the broad type so as to prevent waste
OF land and allow the use of modern
machinery.
