sas City for Home

ATLANTA, Ca, Feb. 2S.-The
Knights Of the Mystic Khan today
joined the list Of rival societies of
the Ku Klux Khan, growing out of
internal differences in the hooded

The new secret organization was
launched here last night at con-

teen states. The meeting, originally
called by E. Y. Clarke, former inn
perial wizard of the Khan, to "cure
or kill' the "invisible empire" pass
ed resolutions condemning William
Joseph Simmons, former leader of
one faction who recently made
peace" with Imperial Wizard Evans.
The Khan was labeled an "auto-
cratic organization whose object was
to overthrow free government"
The delegates elected John r.
Jones as chairman of a temporary
board of control and selected Kan
sas City as national headquarters.
Castles" Of the Mystic Khan were
voted in Milwaukee, Durham, N. c.;

suffering, and when they find that
they have made a mistake in choos-
ing their life partners divorce is the
kill-or-cure remedy they apply to
their matrimonial ills.
'It is curious that divorce should
increase when, nowadays every
match is virtually a love match, and
when the average bride probably
cares ten times as much for her
bridegroom as her grandmother did
for hers, for the present generation
of women is the first one in the
whole history of the world that did
not have to marry for home.
'In grandmother's time a girl had
no way of making a decent living
for herself. She had no social posi-
ton, no liberty, no interest or occu-
patton in life until she got them by
marriage. So, to attain an estab
lishment, and a shopping ticket, and
to get out from under mothers
thumb, and to keep herself from
being bored to DEATH grandmother
married the first eligible man that
came along. That's why she mar
ried at sixteen and seventeen. She
couldn't afford to take a chance by
waiting for some gentleman who
might personally appeal to her.
Marriage was her meal ticket
her emancipation proclamation, and
her sentiments toward grandpapa
didn't matter. Now the whole world
of opportunity is open to a girl.
She can support herself quite as
we'll as her husband is likely to be
able to do. She has to sacrifice the
career she has fitted herself for, her
own pocketbook and her personal
liberty on the marriage altar, and
a man has to look mighty good to
her before she is willing to do it.
Nor are marriages more unhappy
now than they were in our grand
parents time. Human nature does
not change. Sorrow came in with
the first man and woman, and will
go out with the last one. The
things that make marriage a failure
are no new inventions Of the devil.
They have always been with us.

Protecting the Peach Crop From
Brown Rot

A. r. P, Glenwood, Ga,
writes: L will appreciate your
giving me a formula for treating
my peach trees for worms and
brown rot, and when the applica-
tons should be applied.
The best method of destroying
borers in peach trees Is through the
use Of Paradichlorobenezn This
is a white, crystalline material that
looks very much like coarse salt and
has an odor resembling that Of moth
balls. The best time to apply it is
between October 10 and Is. The
average dose is once ounce per tree.
For very old trees, it may be neces-
sary to use a little more. The
ground about the tree should be
broken with a hoe or rake, and the
weeds and trash should be removed
Then smooth off the surface with
the back of shovel. Scatter the
material in a ring about the tree.
1t should in no case come closer to
the tree than from one to one and
one half inches. Put few shovel
fuls of earth over the crystals and
pack down. After the trees have
been exposed to the gas for six

down and the soil about the base
Of the trees scattered.
The brown rot is one Of the most
serious diseases attacking peaches In
this state. Not only does it attack
the fruit, but the young twigs as
well. Peaches that have been pack
ed in a seemingly sound condition
have rotted in transit to eastern mar
kets. The trouble was due to this
disease. It's presence is evidenced
by the development of circular,
brown spots which rapidly enlarge
until the whole fruit is involved.
In the final stage, the whole fruit
becomes a powdery. brown mass Of
spores. The diseased peaches may
remain on the tree and become
mummies. One Of the best means of
fighting this disease is to gather
UP and destroy these mummies by
burning them. Spraying with self
boiled lime sulphur is also recon-
mended for this disease.
The best schedule to follow in
spraying peaches is as follows:
1. During the dormant season, use
lime-sulphur solution diluted to test
As degrees Baume.' When trees are
badly infested with scale make two

Florida Governor

books were adopted by the state

Only three changes are made in

interpretations placed on the procla-
nation in the office of the superin-
tendent of public instruction. These
are for readers, arithmetic and gram

now taught books on S Of them were
readopted.
Readers adopted basal books al,

Irish Potato Crop
H, G. B.. Pavo, Ga, writes:
We expect to plant a good many
Irish potatoes, and would like to
know what kind Of fertilizer to
use. We want to know especial-
ly what kind of material to use
to secure the ammonia and pot
ash from. What do you think
of nitrate Of soda for good part
Of the ammonia?
Sulphate of ammonia is regarded
as the best carrier of potash to use
in association with Irish potatoes.
This is due to the fact that other
forms of potash may make the po-
tatoes somewhat more Watery when
cooked. Sulphate of potash is sup
posed to increase the mealiness and
the dryness of the potatoes. Other
wise, it will exercise no beneficial eff
feet. If at all convenient, however,
we suggest that you obtain sulphate
Of potash and use it rather than the
material you now have on hand. Nj
trate of soda can be used as one of
the chief carriers of nitrogen under
the potato crop with advantage. You
could mix this material with tank
age quite satisfactorily, Fish scrap
and nitrate Of soda will also make a
good combination. Cottonseed meal
and nitrate of soda work we'll to-
gether. For ourselves we would use
nitrate Of soda, and tankage. The
formula applied under potatoes
should contain about q per cent of
available nitrogen, 10 per cent Of
available phosphoric acid, and to
5 per cent Of available potash. The
phosphoric acid will be obtained in
the cheapest and most desirable form
in our judgment through using acid
phosphate.
For Irish potatoes, we think most
OF the fertilizer should be put un-
der the drill row. Some people os
course advocate broadcasting, but
we have never found this so salts
factory as the method suggested. It
Is sometimes good practice to use a
part Of the fertilizer as a side appli-
cation. When this is done, the side
application should be made as soon
as the potatoes have obtained a good
start. Late applications Of fertilizer
to this crop are not likely to prove
helpful save in the case of nitrate
Of soda. Sometimes on thin soils a
side application Of 100 pounds of this
material when the potato plants are
about four to six inches high viii

Grandma had no place to go if
she left grandfather's house. She

there were fewer divorces. 1t was
because the price of divorce was too
