A Narrow Escape.
Lcst Friday after an all night
rain the Car’ecay river was con -
siderably swollen when the
rider on the Diamond route, Joe
Chadwick, and Will C Smith,
merchant of Roy, attempted to
cross at the Tucker ford near
Pike. A drift came down
hit the mule, and turned him
downstream and the occupants
of the buggy crawled out on a

rapidly rising and by the time

i submerged and the men in great
per swim. 7 as When Chadwick the could neighbors not
,
heard the alarm they caoie and
floated a rope tied to a rail down
to them and Joe gripped the rope
and they dragged him to the
bank through the raging waters
and poured the surplus water out
of him and brought him to con¬
sciousness. The rope was then
passed to Smith who tied it
around him and swam out. The
mule was later rescued and also
the buggy. The mril was also
saved but got wet and did not
arrive at Ellijay until next day
It was a narrow escape for them
and emphasizes the fact that we

CORN CLUB PROGRESS FOB 1313
PROMISES GREATEST RESULTS
By Andrew M. Soule, President Georgia State College of Agriculture.
One hundred and forty counties |
have been organized into the corn j
canning club movement club work. for Practically 1913 and 28 10,000 in j '
boys are enrolled and 2,500 girls. This
year the work of organization has
been pushed into new communities
and where it has been harder to get
established. Care has also been taken
to enlist only such boys as gave prom¬
ise of carrying tlieir work through to
the end. From reports received the
boys have entered into the contests
with great enthusiasm, they have
planted under favorable conditions, in
seed beds that have been well pre¬
pared, and they have followd Instruc¬
tions with fidelity.
In the girls’ canning club work as
many as fifteen counties that were'
urging that an organizer be sent, had (
SOILS OF BEN HILL COUNTY
VV. A. Wortham, Professor Agricultu¬
ral Chemistry.
The Bureau of Soils of the United
States Department of agriculture and
the Georgia State College of Agricul¬
ture have completed a co-operative
soil survey of Ben Hill county and the
college has completed a chemical an¬
alysis of the type of soils. While the
bureau of soils of the government is
authorized only to make physical an¬
alysis and thereby determine the soil
type, the college believes it necessary
to go further, make an exhaustive
study of the plant food content of
the various types, by making chemical
analysis and by conducting crop ex¬
periments.
Ben Hill county is tne first one to
be completed so far as the soil sur¬
vey and chemical analysis is con¬
cerned, and the data which as
been obtained will be issifed in bulle¬
tin form from the collcvro. The in
formation contained therein
with the results of field tests which
are being conducted should afford
NUMJ
to be refused. Miss Cieswell who is
the only organizer in the state, has
found it 'impossible to attend to more
than 28 counties thus far.
Many communities in the slate feel
disappointed that they have not been
able to get corn clubs and canning
clubs organized. As men, means and
time will admit every community ia
the state will eventually be given at¬
tention in their turn. It would bo
well for any community that wants t >
join the movement for interesting tha
boys and girls in improved agricul¬
ture, to make the wish known as soon
as possible even though there is no
hope of soon getting an organizer for
work. Nothing is exciting the intere ;t
and inspiring tlio countiy youth so
much as the corn and canning club
contests.
the farmer a basi^on which he should
buy his fertiliser and what crops and
what kind of cultivation will bring
from the soil the largest returns and
at the same time conserve and add
to permanent fertility.
The fertility of southern soils is
more difficult to maintain than soils
of the states further north. First, be¬
cause of our Long summers, during
which time the pia-nt food is more rap¬
idly made available; second, because
of the short winters during which time
under prevailing methods of cultiva¬
tion, our soils are left bare. Under
these conditions the organic matter is
lost by oxidation and the plant food is
depleted by leaching, Hence the great
importance of understanding the need
and condition of soils through the as¬
sistance of the sofi survey and anal¬
ysis. ,Z
