The knee action is not the same
on all shots. The longer the shot
the more knee action. The longer
shot requires more pivoting and the
pivot is regulated by the knee action.
Therefore more action of the knees is
required on drives and brassie shots
than on shorter shots. (See illus
tration.) The left knee should bend
in and point toward the ball on
drives and all other long shots. IT
bends about half as much for mid
iron and mashie shots, and it bare
ly moves on short approaches.
Proper knee action is important
and is absolutely essential to the
correct execution of a shot of almost
any sort. Incorrect knee action can
iause endless trouble in the eXecu-
ton of a stroke. Correct balance,
for one thing. is largely dependent
upon knee action and the body must
be properly balanced throughout the
swing if the stroke is TO be properly
executed.

and that if young woman wishes
to have beaux she must make no
public display of any gray matter
that she has concealed under her
Gasconne cut
SO universal is this masculine
aversion to feminine brains, unless
they are scrambled, that no one
would dream of trying to arouse a
mans interest in a girl by telling
him how nj lIigent, how well edu-
Gated how brilliant and witty she
is, for we'll we know that wild horses
couldn't drag him to see her.
So when we press agent a girl to
man we put the loud pedal on
her looks, and exploit her pep, and
the way she dances, and how we'll
she dresses, and we conceal the fact
if she is intellectual as carefully as
we would hush up d scandal.
That jellybean boys should prefer
silly, gum chewing flappers is nat
ural enough. Like to like, and emp
ty head to empty head. They can
giggle, and two-step or no step. and
talk jazz, and dance jazz together
in a perfect sympathy of idiocy.
But what no woman can under

also prefer feminine geese to fem
mime owls.
Yet they do, and it is idle to deny
it. The blue stocking has been
anathema to men from all times.

TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

all. Students will marry women who
have never read anything deeper
than Bertha, the Beautiful Cloak
Model" Wits marry women who
have not intelligence enough to see
the point Of story, and who never
understand what their husbands are
talking al ,ut Yet these marriages
are not failures, because the men did
not care for intelligence in women.
OF course, vanity is the real ex-
PLANTATION Of why men prefer Stiffness
to sense in a woman. Their egotism
demands that they should know more
than she does, that they should pose
as oracles to her and. that she should
be filled with awe and admiration at
their wisdom.
Hence they fight shy of the lady
who is better read and better inform
ed than they are, and devote them
selves to the little nit-wit who rolls
calf-like eyes at them and asks them
imbecile questions.
If a girl wishes to be popular in
| society, to have many dates and TO
make a good marriage, it pays her
great deal better to cultivate the
outside of her head than it does the
|
curing her finger nails than she does
to polishing her mind. This is why
really clever woman never let's any
man find out how clever she is, and
why so many apparently foolish and
| frivolous girls give us surprises by
showing unexpected sense and sanity.
For mighty few girls are as big fools
as they seem to be-.
But while men like Stiffness in
women in their hours of ease, when
they come to do business with wom-
en- they demand good, hard. horse
sense. They do not want stenogra-
piers and saleswomen with lovely
domes of solid ivory through which
no idea Of efficiency can ever perco-
late.
Nor do men wish their wives to be
quite the morons after marriage that
they seemed to be before marriage.
The Child wife" who was so roman
tic and appealing a figure in the days
of courtship is mighty apt to get on
a mans nerves when he has to deal
with a woman who hasn't sense
enough to learn how to keep house
nor intelligence enough to settle any
question herself, and who can only
weep and wiring her hands when the
bills are beyond reason, and the chill
dren are sick and she doesn't know
! how to take care of them.
So while men prefer the silly girl
to the intellectual girl, and they find
her ignorance enchanting before mar
riage, after marriage they would like
her to develop a good, large, service
able bump Of good, hard, horse sense.

Yard Manures and Compost
Formulas

Formulas
j. L. W., Cleveland, Ga,
writes: I have about ten tons of
stable manure tina. wish to mix
with other ingredients in order
to make a complete fertilizer to
be drilled under corn and cotton.
How much each of acid, nitrate
of soda and potash should be
used to each tor of manure and
how much should be used per
acre? Please give me plan for
building chicken house for fifty
hens. What is meant by STRAW
loft" and are they necessary in
the south?
The ten tons of stable manure to
which you refer should be so han
died and manipulated as to fine this
material as much as possible. AT
ter this has been accomplished
weigh fifteen hundred pounds of
manure out and mix it with three
hundred pounds of acid phophate,
ana two pounds of kainit. Use
this mixture at the minimum rate
OF one thousand pounds and upward
per acre under the drill row before
the crop is planted. A ton per acre
Is certainly not too much to use, if
you wish to make so heavy an ap-
pllcation. The mixture in Ques-
ton will correspond in many re-
spects to an S-22 formula. Yard
manure. as you doubtless know, is
not well-balanced plant food. 1t
Is particularly low in phosphoric
acid. 1t is for this reason that we
suggest the use of so much acid
r.
fof6er hand, gives a beneficial reac-
st1c1 on the soil out of proportion to
kits plant food content. This is due
in large measure to the favorable
fermentations which it sets up in
the soil. 1t is thought that these
lamentations encourage the growth
and development of forms of bac-
terial life which serve a very bene-
fetal purpose in crop production. All
the same, it may be desirable to use
some nitrate of soda under corn and
cotton which have been fortified
In the manner suggested above. If
you obtain nitrate of soda for this
purpose, I would suggest that you
use it as a side application. 1t should
be put on the corn when it is about
knee high and on the cotton just
When it is beginning to square. Use
l00 pounds per acre, and put it all
on at one application. You should
apply nitrate of soda of course as
top dressing. 1t is not necessary
to cover it into the soil, as the mois-
ture rising from the subsoil will dis
solve it and cause it to be incor-
porated into the land in the course
OF few hours. You can see it's eff
feet on the growing plant about
ten days later.
In building chicken houses in the
south, it is generally best to leave
one side open. 1t should face toward
the sun. You can provide shade
for the summer season through the
ues of an awning or by planting
trees in the right relationship to
your chicken house. You cannot get
too much sunlight into a building
of this kind, however, during the
winter months. Sunlight is a very
valuable de-odorizer and exercises
|disinfecting properties as we'll. Straw
lofts are used in association with
poultry houses built in the far north.
The idea Is to make them warmer.
1t is a practice quite unnecessary
here in the south. Plans for stand
ardized chicken houses can now be
obtained free of COST from our agri-
cultural colleges. Any farmer can

Top Dressink of Cotton With Nitrate
of Soda
n. r. c., Ashburn, Ga, writes;
How is the proper way to use
calcium arsenate? Does nitrate
of soda pay? How much should
be used per acre? What variety
of cotton is best to use?
Calcium arsenate may be used in
one of several ways for combating
recommend the following procedure
for general use. AS soon as the cot
ton has been chopped to a stand and
the weevils are in the bud, use the
following mixture: One gallon of wa
ter, two gallons of syrup, and three
pounds of standard high-grade cal
cium arsenate. Mix the calcium ar
senate and water together very thor
oughly and then stir into the syrup.
Apply his mixture with a mop when
it is fresh to the bud of the plant.
A second application just when the
cotton is squaring may or may not
be desirable. This can be determined
by an examination of the field to dis
cover the number of WeeVils pres
ent. AS soon as any considerable
number of the young squares or bolls
shows evidence of weevil infesta-
ton, dust, using a power machine, If
possible. Use four to five pounds Of
dust per acre. Apply it when the
dew is on the plant. Repeat the
eatment once in three or four days
until three applications have been
made. A second concentrated treat
ment in two or three weeks may be
necessary.
If nitrate of soda is used in asso-
citation with cotton, it should be as a
side application. Use 100 pounds per
acre and apply it just when the cot
ton begins to bloom.
There is no one best variety of
cotton. There are number of very
good, standard sorts for use in your
section. If the wilt disease is trou-
