FARM EDUCATION
BY DR.. ANDREW M. SOULE

The variety known as South Geor'
sia rye and apparently originated in
Brooks county, Georgia, is as early
as the AbruzZes and makes a good
quantity of grazing. The grain yield,
however, is not so good. This va
riety, apparently, is not as hardy as
some of the other strains, and it
would probably be best to seed it
only IN south Georgia. The Virginia
rye Is a hardy strain, but 1t does
not grow off as rapidly as some other
strains, and it's spreading habit of
growth makes it undesirable as
grazing and cover crop. In the
northern part of the state, it makes
fair yield of grain. We have found
it desirable in seeding rye to set it
in the ground as early as possible;
say about November l in north
Georgia and November Is to Deem.
Der l in south Georgia. We use
from three to four pecks of seed
per acre. Rye makes a good cover
81
and makes a fair yield of hay. The
hay, however, is not of very good
quality. 1t is a very good crop to
use for turning under provided this
ia done when it is comparatively
small
Wilt-Resistant Strains of Cotton
E. V. H., Kite, Ga, writes: [
wish to know the best variety
of cotton to plant on land that
has the black root L have plant
ed Covington Toole, but l want
a larger variety if [ can get it,
as the weevils puncture the
small bolls worse than the large
ones.
The Toole varieties OF cotton are
among the very best strains to cui-
tivate where the land is infested by
wilt disease. You may not have had
one Of the best strains, of which
there are a number. In our tests
here at Athens, we have found Ma
this Toole, Petty's Toole, and Coun-
ell Toole quite satisfactory. Lewis
63 and Dixie also showed up very
well. Dixie is somewhat later than
the other varieties mentioned, and,
for that reason, it's use is not quite
so desirable under boil weevil infes-
tation. We suggest that you try one
Of the strains Of Toole cotton we
have recommended above. It will
pay you TO purchase the seed from a
reliable dealer. If you can not get
any of the Toole varieties, then try
either Lewis So or Dixie. Your
county agent should be able to help
you secure the name Of a reliable
dealer. The Georgia Breeders asso-
citation, of which Prof. r. r. Childs,
professor of agronomy, in charge Of
cotton industry, Georgia State Col
lege Of Agriculture, is secretary, can
inform you where you can secure
reliable seed. This organization is
examining and certifying as to the
purity of the seed offer d for sale
by many of the leading growers of
cotton and other farm crops in Geor-
gia. This organization was estab-
lished for the protection of the
farmer, and / consider that it is do
ing a. very definite and fundamental
piece Of work. 1 believe if you Sc
cure one of the strains suggested,
you will find it more satisfactory
than the cotton you are planting at
this time.

Which Variety of Rye Is Best
for Georgia?

c. A. c., Granville, Ga,
writes: Which is the best variety
to use for Georgia conditions.
Georgia rye, Rosen rye or
Abruzzi rye?
There are several strains of rye
which have been grown under our
observation to some considerable ex-
:ent in various parts of Georgia
The Abruzzes, imported from Italy
BY the United States department of
agriculture, seem to be the best
strains to plant for general use.

James Paddon is relinquishing the

For a time his father kept him out of

for Is holes, and when we came to
the eighth hole on the second round
I was lucky enough TO be l up,
pretty decent advantage with only
two more holes to be played.
The prospect looked even better
for me after our drives. 1 obtained a

bad luck. The clubhouse was sit
uated just a short distance to the
right OF the eighth fairway. Along
its entire front ran a wide awning.
Joe sliced his drive and his ball
lodged atop this awning.
Ordinarily the pellet would have
been unplayable and the tournament
would have ended right there. But
this was no ordinary awning. 1t was
not the sort you can let down in the
morning and pull up again at night
fall. No, the canvas covering was
spread over a permanent iron frame
which had its foundation on the
ground.
Knowing that to pick up his ball
would concede me the hole, De Moss
took account of this iron support,

You have to admire him for the
way in which he played his shot. His
footing was precarious. To have be-

would have toppled him off the avn
ing backward or plunged him through
the canvas. But Joe didn't hesitate
a bit.
His drive had only travelled about
10 yards and he still was 230 or 240
yards from the pin. Just to try for a
better position in the fairway would
do no good. So, in the parlance of

Remaker of Base Ball
End of the "RainbolU"-
Depended on Speed
Hooper's Humiliation.
CHAPTER NJ.

When Cobb began developing
and playing the outield regularly
| base runners were forced TO change
their methods. Cobb compelled
them to stay on their toes, to play
heads-up base ball.
One OF his big days occurred IN
a game where Boston opposed De-
troit. Harry Hooper, an excellent
hitter and smart player, was with
Boston. Hooper will probably re-
| member the day. for Cobb stole two
hits from him that afternoon. and
If there is one thing more than any
thing else that will impress itself
upon ball players mind 1t is the
loss Of a base hit. Hooper was
right field hitter: he rarely hit in
any other direction. Cobb decided to
take chance on him and for once he
changed his position, coming close
toward the infeld. Hooper, an excel
lent leadoff man. headed the Boston
batting order. He waited out the
Detroit pitcher was usual, and when the
count became three and two Hooper
offered at the next ball. which was
over. He drove il into right field, a
low line smash that struck on the
grass and bounded on q direct line
toward Cobb. The Detroit first
sacker Claude Rossman, had been in
cover the bag in case Hooper hit
safely into right. As the ball shot
between first and second Rossman ran
to the bag. Cobb tore in on the ball,
scooped il up and made a snap throw
to Rossman. Hooper was out by a
full step, and in those days Hooper
was by no means a slow base runner
Did Ii n Second Time.
The next time at bat Hooper
grounded to the infieId, and when he
came to bat a third time that day
Cobb was again playing close in. at
least closer than ordinarily. Once
again Hooper smashed through the
intield. Cobb again streaked in on
the ball, scooped it up and made a
snap throw to Rossman. Hooper was
once more out by a step.
Cobb had the same success against
other players. He saw his opportuni-
ties. so he played a shorter right field
than any other man handling the
position. He depended on his speed
in doing this. Breaking quickly as he
did and having a great deal OF speed
once under way also being fairly
good judge OF a fly ball by this time
Cobb decided he could go back and
get any kind of chance in right field
that was possible to get. BY playing
close he could always come in on
grouud-hit balls and have a chance
Of getting the runner at first. He at
least would make a snap throw that
prevented the runner from venturiug
off the bag or taking any kind of lead
/ toward second. If the man cut in
side of first and started for second.
Cobb was sure to have him caught of
base. He caught quite a number that
way.
