The juris-i diction provided for in Section 3 of the bill included every class of crime except murder, rape, or attempt to rape, arson,' , ’ -6 common law burglary, bribery and jk r jury Now, it is manifest that, with the eXcbptiori of homicide cases, our courts r are hardly over burdened w ith the grin.as of raja , arson or common law burglary, privilege A)f citizenship; The most help- log of men today ig the man who can not think, wisely for himself huf in btmdnegB receive th* advice of others. Another consequence of this failure to bane our thinking on safe information ig the undemocratic way in which we gpeak of the servants of the people.

Harper, Director Farm Service Bureau, Atlanta, Georgia ' Not a day pass es that the fanner i« hot reminded of the vital necessi ty of producing ' more food crops, : and he is-arged to put forth his best effort la doing hie “bit,” but the q ues t i o n is — “How*.” It is now too late to increase able crop that Can be grown under the present food and feed emergency. A great .part of the Increased acreage is poor upland, which will make .a prof itable yield, only by the;use,of com mercial fertilizer.- It has always paid me to apply 200 or 300 pounds of fer tilizer around, my corn the second or third. plowing" or when the corn was between one and three feet high.” ^ The porn crop Is the bread of the ." ‘ its yield should be increaa- his fall and next ed to the" lint It.

Unless the corn crop of the South Is a "bumper,” bread will be a luxury instead of the staff of life. " ’ *, The farmer Is being advised on ev- ery hand to/fnerease prodyction but he if? limited in his credit and he finds It bard to obtain sufficient labor. The host way to increase the production of corn and other food crops, as well as cotton, is to cultivate thoroughly and often and make side applications of fertilizers. If the farmer hasn't the money to hire-labor, uniter present con- Our farmers must' not fail to pro duce air the hay possible, and it wfll pay to fertilize a patch of sorghum and peas with a fertilizer-containing ...from 10 to 12 per cent phosphoric acid and l^i to 2 per cent nitrogen. Cotton is not generally recognized as a food crop, but the country must -adv*nei»d *K« not overlook the fact that an acre of I -cotton that adll produce a -bale will yield almost as great a food and fe.ed value in the seed as the same land planted to corn.

A large yield of corn is greatly sslble to produce profitable yields- without ample plant food. Just what fertilizer to apply ahjl how much to fE use as a side appifcation will depend •on the soil type< the crop planted, and the kind and amount of fertilizer used at the time the land was prepared. On Piedmont soils and clay soils wo would recommend from 200 to 300 pounds of fertilizer for cotton *apl corn .analyzing 6 to 8 per cent phos- V phoric acid and. 2 t.o 4 per -cent .nitro- - gen. For field crops in the- coastal plain, we would recommend from 30o to 400 pounds of a fertilizer analyzing ffibm 4 to 7 per c«‘nt plmsphoric acid , •and from ..4 to 6 per cent nitrogen.
