Just one more Ford joke and

Labor leaders declare their de
termination to serve their country
in time of war in a manner that
leaves no danger of their being
mistaken for pacifists.
All the liberal governments, of
the world, the United States in
cluded, have extended to new Rus
sia the glad h xnd of good fellow
ship and welcomed her to a place
among the republics of the world.
The revolution in Russia was the
most wonderful in history. Never
before has a great country risen up
and kicked a tyrant off the throne
and established a republic with so
little blood shed as Russia has
done. Long live free Russia.
Another unpleasant feature of
the situation is that should war
come. Col. Roosevelt, realizing
that it has been a good \*hile since
the diplomatic break with Germany
occurred, will again go through the
ceremony, in his own inimitable
way, of offoring to sacrifice himself
for his country.

scheme yet devised. »
Car manufacturers are increas
ing their purchases with Southern
saw mills, it has been fe nd that
the metal const) uction recently
used in building, box cars made
them unreasonably heavy. In
some instances the car was three
times as heavy as the contents. It
has been determined th^t the prop
er proportion is for the car to be as
heavy as its carrying oepacity.
This can or.'y be accomplished by
using wood in the construction of
the car. „
A government contract was let
at San Antono. Texas, recently
for Southern yellow pine lumber
which it is estimated will run from

The order calls for immediate ful
fillment and a bond was required of
the bidder guaranteeing immediate
shipment. The destinations of the
' lumber are kept secret, but the or
der is for light timbers, boards and
ship-lap. the kind of material adapt

Page's Weekly Letter.
Farm c.rops are now command
ing good prices, alono' with every
thing else, and with reasonable in
dustry and frugality the farmers on
the poorest lands can do fairly well
and escape many of the hardships
in life with which they have here
tofore had to contend. This will
naturally cause the most of the
farmers to plant as extensively as
they can of the money crops, with
the consequent result that other
crops and the land itself will be
more or less neglected and run
down. This will be a misfortune
that will rise up and stare you in
the face in the future. At no time
is it more important to raise plenty
of feed for all the stock and to farm
the land so it will be improved.
The humble cow pea is a great soil
improver for the South. Last year
the cow pea was not raised as ex
tensively as heretofore, and the
supply of seed is low and the price
high. The cow pea makes good
hay, and nearly always brings a
good price on the market. They
should be planted in all the corn,
and after wheat and oats. All the
spots of poor land on the farm
should be planted in cow peas, soy
beans or velvet beans. Sow the
cow peas broad cast and cut for
hay. The hay is good and the crop
helps ihe land. The sov beans
makes a good hay crop and is bet
ter for the land than peas. A soy
bean crop is hard to save except
for hay. The pods pop open when
the beans ripen, and many are lost
if"the crop is picked, but the little
beans are hard and" will remain on
the ground until you can turn your
hogs in to eat them after crop
gathering time. They make the
yery best hog feed. Soy beans can
be planted between hills af corn in
the row and "hogged down" after
the corn is gathered, or before. If
you will feed the hogs on soy beans
a few days before you turn them in
the corn field, there will be little
damage done to the corn by pas
turing the hogs in the corn field be
fore gathering the corn. They will
like the soy beans better than corn,
and let the corn alone until the
beans are gone. They may break
down an occasional stalk of corn,
but if the soy beans are plentiful
they will do but little damage to
the corn.
The velvet bean is one of the
best soil improving crops for South
ern farms. It is rich in nitrogen.
They can be planted in rows with
the corn at about the third plowing.
After the corn matures and the
blades dry up you can go in the
field and break and bend over the
tops just above the ear. This will
not hurt the corn, but gives a good
support for the bean vines, and
prevent them from breaking down
the stalks. The beans should be
planted about six feet apart in the
row between the corn hills. The
vines are very vigorous and make a
heavy growth. In the fall the corn
can be gathered early and then tne
stalks and vines be run over with a
roller or drag, after which a heavy
disk harrow can be run over, which
enable you to plow under the whole
mass. This will add lots of vegeta
ble matter to the soil, and produce
splendid results in the crop that
follows the next year.
Remember the cow pea. the soy
bean and the velvet bean, and try
some of each or all this year on
your poorest land. They will be a
blessing to you next year.
