TAX COMMISSION
4 1 is STANDING PAT
A. W. Jones, chairman of the Stale
(Mi commission, had no comment to
Mike, says the Columbia State, onthe
action of the several railways In refusing
to pay the entire amount of
corporation license taxes as asessed
by the commission. S. T. Carter, the
State treasurer,refused to accept partial
payment by the railways.
The law provides a tax of 3 mills
on the gros earnings of the railways
oerating in the Stae. The railways
offered payment on Intrastae business.
For the first time since the law
Wis enactedthe railways have been
flSiesed on Insterstate busines.
*1 have extended the time for the
payment of license fees due by railroad
corporations from June 10 to
Jttly 1," said Carltpn W. Sawyer,
comptroller general, yesterday
The time was extended upon rcdf
the State tax commission. The
ciommission desires to get more information
from the railroads.

old, went to Fairfield to attend court.
On his return he started to walk to
his home two miles away. It is behoved
that he was stricken with apoPfexy

^rhaTthe"Ileckmans Say About Cow 1
Oats Following Inoculated Cow 1'eat
80IL ' ' *;>
After years of Intelligent toil, when
P. J. Beckmans of Augusta, Ga?
was gathered tohis fathers, he left
behind him an enviable reputation as
a most useful citizen, as noted lioriOulturlwt,
a great nursury business,
And three sons to carry on the
work he had inaugrated?a business
which had its customers in every civilized
land, for the Beckmans nusery
products were above all reliable and
just what the firm declared them to
be. There was no guess work about
anything they sold. They knew the
possibilities and the limitations of
every tree, shrub or plhnt that went
forth from their establishment.
The business started by the re
Vfired P. J. A. Beckmans has far outgrown
the business left by him. In
addition, the activities of the sons
have caused them to branch out in
several other directions, and among
their ventures is a fifteenth hundred
ttfire farm at Mayfield, half of which
is given over to peach orchards and
the other half to general farming.
This farm. "The Oaks," located
at Mayfield in Hancock county, Ga.,
Is being brought up to highest productiveness
through the application of
the underlying principles of the maintenance
of soil fertility, and a record
oat crop grown this year on sandy
land under drouf$i qomVitions jlias
pointed so conclusively to the money
Value of the inoculation of legumes
that this year the Beckmans Broathers
are using more than 3(H) acres of
Incoculating material on cow peas
alone.
In discusing the rearkable yiely
of oats, Mr. P. J. A. A. Berckmans,, Jr.,
said:
"For years we have grown cow peas
with what we believed to be sucess.
as a means of. increasing the fertility
of the land aB well as for the excellent
forage the crop provides. Some years
ago we began testing out commercial
bacterial cultural for the incolntion
of hairy vetch, planted along with
oats, and some of them proved de
cideiy succe^ful, while the hay was
easily the best ever fe?l on our place.
This test was madeon the orchard
section of The Oaks, and it was observed
by all that the mules on that
part of the plantation were in liner
condition than on the farm section,
where mixed grain and forage were
fed. Crops grew better after the in ?
oculated vetch, showing the increase
in nitrates and the general improve
ment of the soils.
"In the summer of 1914, the representatives
of the Harp-Thomas Farmogerm
Company called on us am!
satisfied us that the incolating of
cow peas would be profitable. The
representative told us of people we
knew who had got as much as 100
/per cent. Increase in their oats and

with his culture. No claim that we
i-would get such an increase was made,
1 and we were led to believe that an
increase of 3.r> to fit) per cent, would
be what we shnuld expect.
! "We accordingly bought 13~? acres
of Farmogerni for cow peas and as i
a result grew the best crop of cow
peas ever seen at 'The Oaks'?
vigorous plants, so dark green they
were almost black. We ,c^t. them
off and planted oats on a part of the
land after the incolated cow peas,
and oats on a section where cow peas
without incolating were grown. In
al respects the prepration and fertilization
of two were the same.
"During the prolonged drought this
spring the oats after the incolated
cow peas continued to grow and mature
praperty. The oats after the cow
peas without incolating ceased to
grow and did not head out satisfactorily.
You culd tell to the row where
the soil had been incolated, so much
more vigorous were the oats. The
result? We havested three times as
many on is from lands -that ihad
as many oats from the land that luid
Iheen incolated for cow pehs as we did
nnere tlie cow peaswcre grown with-,
out incolatiiig... The effect was marvelous.
The cost was trifling, about
$1 per acre, and for this small expenditure
we got a bigger and better crop
of cow peas than wehadcver grown
before, and a 200 per cent .increase
in our oats.
"We have demonstrated that our
soils needed organic matter and nitro
gen and fully appreciate the benefit
of the inoculating of cow pens with
FARMOORAM, a-? well as vetch, cii
poor soils. Von should have seen
the unpromising character of the so!
where wo used ihj FARMlK.RAM to
understand .Tilly the difference in the
twp crops. This field we are planning
to lime and thus realize the fullest
benefit from the inoculation. That
field is now well incoulated, but we
will plant it to cow peas again to got
the full benefit of last year's inoculation.
In actual return, figured either
asan in vestment or an expense, no
money lias ever been expended by lis
Mint gave such a large profit as the
money spent for Mie 1H."? acres- of

statement. We lenow it. because we
' keep books on every crop grown on
our farm.

'tliat it pays to inoculate cow peas,
and we Rliail use inoculation wherever
we can plant cow peas this year
to increase permanently (he fertility
