if. r. A. GROUP MAKE STUDY OF METHODS IN PRACTICAL WORK (Continued from Page One) John C. Calhoun and, later, fovm<*ed the college which bears his name, on ? grounds which were a part of the Calhoun estate. This was a his toric treat for the boys. ( The bovs had their lunch at Coe s tourist camp, and continued on then way which took them by way of Gainesville, Ga., and gave them * piew of the University of Georg.a located there. Mr. E. S. Pappey, manager of the White Provision Company Save , boys a most cordial welcome as they drove up to the company s plant in the north side of Atlanta. Mr. Pappey had made a trip to Brevard and met haa maw y remembered some 01 tne ilV them and called some f themh ^ name and made them feel at home from the very beginning. All otner officials of the company went to great lengths to make the boys have the time of their life. As soon as the boys could get themselves in readiness they were taken to the private dming room ol the company where they enjoyed a real banquet which was planned prepared by Mr. 0 M. Cm wh. ? in charge of the cafeteria Alter the banquet the boys were taken in pn vate cars by members of the com pany's staff and were shown the "sights of the city of Atlanta, th gateway to the south." They then re turned to the office of Mr. H T. McKown, live stock buyer for company. . After the exchange of jokes, stories and experiences the boys retired? but not for long. They claimed they could not sleep because of the noise mad by the trains, trolley cars, motor ? trat fic to which they were not accustom ed At about 3:30 in the morning Mr. Glazener was aroused by the "nl?^" ing of two carloads of hogs and went out to investigate and see if the boy were alright. He found all of them on the fence watching the unloading excepting four who had gone to sleep in the ball park. After a hearty breakfast in the company's dining room the boys were conducted through the plant by Mr. Pappey, manager, Mr. McKown, live stock buyer and Mr. L. Neukoff, plant superintendent. The butchering ot cattle held the interest of the boys and from there they were escorted to the cutting and finishing rooms where a practical demonstration was given as to the difference between prop erlv finished hogs and those that were not properly finished, and why the company can pay more for the former. The latter can only be used for lard. This demonstration was ot much interest and was followed up by a trip to the stock yards where live hogs were shown and the de ferences between the finished and unfinished pointed out. While there Mr. H. McDowell, superintendent ot the company's plant at Moultrie pointed out the kind of hogs the pack er wants and the kind he does no want. The boys got a big kick out of this as some of the ones they picked out were the acceptable ones. After lunch, which was also tar nished by the company in the.;? din ing room, they were t:'<en to the pri vate zoo or A*? G." Candler, wealthy Atlanta capitalist ~nd philanthropist, who personally escorted them through his zoo which is one of the most re markable in the country, containing some very rare animals. They were particularly impressed with the clean liness and neatness of the place, a special type of glass roof is used so that in inclement weather the animals will have ample protection. Mr. Chan dler told them the story of each of the rare animals in the collection and made the trip not only interesting but profitable. On their way back to the V, hitt Provision Company's plant a stoP over was made at the Federal Peni tentiary where the buildings and ground's were gone over by the boys. Supper was awaiting them on their arrival at the plant. . , Mr Cecil H. Rollins city sales manager of the company and some of his men had been plotting while they were away, the results evidenced by their being hauled into the cars ol these men directly after supper and being taken to the Paramount theatre where they enjoyed the picture and afterwards the refreshments served them. Back to the plant; and did those boy-: sleep. Not a one of them but 4 ===^ T o The Students A good way to improve your grade at school is to Eat a hot lunch at the noon hour.

They all ? slept, : I During their stay in Atlanta they t | met Mr. Truett, County Agent of j i Fulton county and his associate Mr. I Gladden. Reporters from fhe Atlanta I Constitution came out to visit them land brought a photographer along 1 with them. Announcement was made ^ j over WGST the Georgia Tech station ! as to their being there and the pur | pose of their visit. I The last few hours of their visit j was devoted to watching the butch lering, scalding and dressing of the i hogs under Government inspection. : i This plant has a capacity for butch- 1 ering of about three hundred hogs j ! per hour. i At 8:30 o'clock the boys bade adieu ? to their hosts and proceeded on their , way to Rome which place they were to visit on their return becauso of | the interest in the Berry schools. i0- ; cated there. | | On arrivals there they were con- 1 ducted over the gr^iir.as and build ings comprising the institution by the j j school post master and a trustee. The . ! Martha Bci'ry schools were founded j ! by M-Sa Martha Berry as a small log . cabin school for mountain boys and I girls. This work has developed to i such an extent that the fame of this insi|i|tittion has reached throughout the country. ' Of particular interest here they found the beautiful buildings which 1 were provided through an endowment I of Henry Ford. They are beautiful ; and up to date in every respect. The tour took them over the fields where ^ they were shown the methods of sou preparation and fertilization employ ed there. This old worn out land has been built up to a point where excep tional vields are now being made. On | I one tract of 120 acres the average i yield of oats for the last crop was j I SO bushels per acre. , , | After being shown the dairy herd, , the modern barns and the printing of ' fice and learning that many of the i buildings there have been erected with | student labor from brick made bv them, they continued on to Chatta ' nooga, stopping for a time to view I the beauties of Chickamauga Park. ! From Chattanooga they went on to j Knoxville and to the University ar i riving there at 1 :30 and spent the rest i of the night on cots in Temple Hall, i Arrangements had been made lor 1 them by the American Limestone Company of Knoxville. Next morning the boys were con ducted over the grounds of the Uni versity Experiment station's grounds bv Mr J. C. McAmis, research work er and Dr. C. A. Mooers. Of particu lar interest to them here was tm> j beautiful field of I.espedeza Sericea, I due to the fact that a few acres of . I this crop are being grown in Transyl I vania this year for the first , I More work is being done on this leg- , ume by this station than by any other station in the south, having been ex- 1 perimenting with it for the past four | years. Thev have found that it makes fine hay and that the cattle eat it readily. It makes a better growth on poor soil than any other clover and its drought resistent. Has large yields of seed and at this time these seeds are selling at a very high price. Sev eral cuttings may be made each year It is unnecessary to repent as it is a perrennial. (It is Prof. Glazener s aim and hope to hive this clover all o%er Transylvania county as a hay crop and as a soil builder, laying the foun dation for a live stock program.) Before finishing the experiment plots Mr. Furman Smith general sales manager of the American Lime stone company and Mr. E. M . Math er were ready to take the party in charge. They were taken out to the Company's plant and shown the pro cess used in the manufacture of ferti i lizer. They were invited into the oi ! fice of the president where they heard ( him talk on the proper use of -eru lizer. His company is manufacturing fertilizer according to the Universi ty's findings. Back to the University and Mr. Smith informed the boys that there would be plenty to eat at the cafe teria if they were not too bashful t# ask for it. Judging from the way they went at it they were not bashful. The University has a beautifully furnish ed and managed cafeteria and ac cording to the boys the food "can't be beat." Later in the afternoon they were taken to the company's plant at Mas cot, 15 miles from Knoxville where the limestone is taken 600 feet under ground, brought up on automatic cars to the surface, hauled to a con siderable distance and dumped. Jill this is done automatical!-' T-htf entire i process of mining preparing the! lime was followed by the boys who showed considerable interest in every plii.se of the process of manufacture. They climbed to the top of a stack of fertilizer in which there were more than a million tons. .

PRINCIPALS WILL MEET SATURDAY According to Prof. J. B. Jones, city-county superintendent, a meet ing of the school principals of the county will be held at the high school auditorium, ^Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. The principals are especially urged to be present for this important meeting. ONLY TWO CASES ON MAYOR'S DOCKET Mayors court has been pretty quiet ; during the past week, only two cases appearing on the docket. Both of these were drunks. FARM QUESTIONS Q. Grain moths and weevils are unusually bad -in my storage room. How can I get rid of these? A. Carbon disulphide poured over the grain or placed in pans on top of the grain will control these pests. ? Where the grain is to be used as feed the mixture may be poured directly ; on top but where it is to be used for seed the carbon disulphide should be placed in pans on top of the grain. In both cases the mixture evaporates and the fumes settle to the bottom. For best results, the bin or storage room should be kept tightly closed. Q. Is one worming of young pul lets sufficient to rid them of worms or will the dose have to be repeated? A. This will depend upon the de gree of infestation but, if you will carefully cull out those birds that are diseased or run down, one worming ! should be sufficient,. A careful check should be made, however, on all birds that die or are dressed for broilers after the first worming is completed. If there is still a fair infestation, the dose should be repeated. Directions on the worm tablet package should ' also be carefully followed. j Q. What can I do now to insure good, healthy bee colonies next spring? A. First see that all colonies are headed by a young, vigorous que^n. This will add young bees fori the winter and will also build up the colony next spring. The bees must have plenty of food and at least fifteen pounds of honey should be al lowed for each colony. In some cas^s most of the honey is removed with the supers and as a result brood rearing is restricted. This means a small colony) with poorly developed bees. Check all colonies and see that at least fifteen pounds of honey is reserved for winter feeding.
