National Fertilizer Chief Cite* Need in F^rm_ Short Course. . •4 ^ T HAT the east cotton belt acreage la rivaled by furmera weat of the slaslpph river waa the outstanding statement made by J. C. Prldmore, di rector of the Southern Division, Na- ^ tlonal Fertilizer Association, in a talk for the Ra dio Short Course over WSB, Atlan ta, a twd-weeks’ course conducted by Sears - Roe buck Agricultural Foundation In co operation with the Fertilizer Associ ation. “Speaking of the economic sit uation prevailing over the south eastern states, It Is absolutely essen tial for cotton growers In this terri tory to avail themselves of every pos sible means of reducing the cost of growing cotton," said Mr. Prldmore. "Let me give you a picture of the ex pansion of cottonyicreage west of the Mississippi rlv^r, where we now have approximately as much land devoted to cotton as the whole belt had five years ago. Not only Is tills true, but in that section It la possible for the farmers, through the use of machin ery, to cultivate large areas and, thereby, make cheaper cotton than Is possible In the southeastern states. "To meet this altuatlon and to grow cotton In com|>et!tlon with the farmers west of the river it Js apparent that the southeastern growers must use every possible means of making big yields per acre, which Is the way to produce cotton nt a low cost per pound. W’e not only must practice those methods known • to Influence yields,-but fertilize more wisely than ever before. We must feed the cott >n plants liberally to get a profitable har vest. The fertilizer must contain those plant foods that will meet soli deficien cies and supply crop requirements and furnish the three elements—phosphoric arid, nitrogen and potash—In propor tions to constitute a balanced ration."

Early Marriage not - Beet for HappiniMM The Ideal age for marriage la twen ty-nine years for the groom and twen ty-four for the bride, according to a report In the Journal of Social Hy giene. Deviations of four years on either side for the groom and of two years for the bride make little differ ence, but marriage In which either party is nineteen years or younger are from ten to a hundred times as risky as at the ideal age. These Conclusions were reached from a study of 1,000 Impartially se lected cases from the domestic rela tions court of Philadelphia. The two most plausible explanations for the findings are either that premature or delayed marriage Is a symptom of permanent character traits that are unfavorable to success in family life, or that the boy or girt under twenty- one has not a sufficiently broad expe rience to select a mute with* whom a successful home can he established. If immaturity, rather than perum- | nent instability is the cause, postpone ment of marriage and education*! guidance may do much to eliminate domestic disaster.

The Departed Hero Now there Is no place In the modern novel for the hero. The novelist main tains, not without Irritation, that It la none of his doing; he has no choice but to write of things as they are, and he finds no hero In modern life to occupy the place. “Tone Bungay” set the pattern Tor a whole school of novelists, until' Dorothy Richardson and James Joyce broke it again. In “Tono Bungay” H. G. Wells gave to his principal character, young Pon- derevo, a reasoned excuse for his Inadequacy In the heroic role: "I began With the supposition that life' consisted in doing things. 1 discovered that It consisted In having thinga done to nie."^-Isabel Paterson in the Book man.

Our Windows Mazursky’s f Barnwell, S. C. Your Profeteion It Is In the nature of man to abuse his own profession. In his own pro fession he realizes his limitations, hut he blames them upon the profession and not upon himself. On the other hand, seeing things from outside, he Imagines that 'other professions are easier than Tils own and that If he had entered one of them he Tvpuld have gone higher. In his own profes sion he is inclined to note only the failures; In the others his eyes are on the successes. Between disloyalty to his profession and disloyalty to himself he Instinctively chooses dis loyalty to his profession.—Baltimore Sun. Odd Fellow Old Order The “Odd Fellows,” as such, were formed in the Eighteenth century, but with the intermediate link of the trade guilds they stretch back to Roman times. From a marble monument fonnd at Lanurium. near Rome, It Is clear that the practice of combination for providing decent burial, and peri odically spending a convivial time In each others’ company, waa a feature of the life of the ancient Romans, and those two objects (with others) bare always been part of Odd Fellowship.
