Our greatest need, he said, ls for a civic association that makes for graeter respect for the law, and that respect for the law should and must begin in the homes. The influence of the parents and pro per training In the home demand Of the children obedience. As they grow, up to manhood and womanhood they' will then respect the municipal, tb*?, county'-aad^ these laws violated dblly, he said, I yet the Christian people tolerate the '.ditton.

Numerous inquiries have been re ceived in regard to the manner of composting cotton seed, and Prof. Blackwell, agronomist, recommends tho following procedure: "One of the best ways is to start a bed about eight to ten feet wide by throwing up a layer of dirt. Dig a trench around it to prevent water from running in it. Make the bed as long as necessary. "Start off by putting down a layer of cotton seed, then a layer of leaves, then a layer of acid phosphato and layer of manure. Be sure to get enough manure to cause the organic matter-that is, the cotton seed, the leaves and litter-to heat and fer ment, as this is important. The amount bf acid phosphate used with the manure varies, but usually 200 to 300 pounds of acid is used with each ton of manure. These lay ers can be continued as high ns it is convenient to make them. It is important to cover the com post pile with a layer of soil three or four Inches deep, as this is for tho purpose of absorbing the gases lib erated. It is usually best to throw up a shed or cover over this to pre vent a heavy rain from washing. Orchard Owners, Attention!
