IN farming districts of the South
“Father and Son” means some-
thing more than a Sunday School
supper, a Rotary meeting or a golf
tournament. A review of last season’s
records discloses several striking in-
stances of father and son capturing
first honors In various agricultural
contests.
In Arkansas W. T. Beall, of Wilson,
won the State Five-Acre Cotton Con-
test for adults and his son, Elstner,
won two State-wide contests for stu-
dents of Vocational Agriculture; one
was In cotton growing and another in
corn. Elstner also was awarded first
place In corn production among voca-
tional students in tho entire South.
L. S. Strickland of Royston, Ga.,
proved himself the best cotton farmer
in Georgia for the year and his son,
Thomas, won the State cotton cham-
pionship for boys in 4-H Agricultural
Clubs.
Three prize winners in one family
was the enviable record of B. N. Dar-
nell and sons of Glen Allen, Miss.-
Mr. Darnell won the State Cotton Con-
test. His sons, Watt and John, won
first and second prizes, respectively,
in the 4-H Corn Club Contest for boys
in their county.
Among these prize winners, there
are three points which all agree are
necessary for the production of good
crops. These are thorough cultivation,
good seed and liberal fertilization.
Each father and son applied a liberal
amount of fertilizer prior to planting
pared with 754,277 tons in 1926-1927.
Europe, which for a time cut down
on her buying of Chilean nitrate, has
again become a heavy consumer and
her imports increased 47 per cent.
Herbert C. Brewer, Director of the
Chilean Nitrate of Soda Educational
Bureau in this country, says the re-
markable strides made by nitrate of
soda furnish proof of the satisfaction
it has given farmers everywhere, but
particularly in the South, where it is
IlMd chiefly on cotton and corn.

has practically eliminated the
hook worm which again proves
that the “oily bird” gets the

pearance,” the Mississippi Experiment
Station reports in Bulletin 252. "Very
few shrivelled tomatoes were found.
After such a long shipment by local
express, the crates being handled
many times, freight marks and box
scars were expected. These were com*
paratively few, however. There were
37 bacterial rots out of 633 tomatoes
shipped to New York City, which
might be considered a good report.”
It is planned to conduct these testa
for two more years. The Station
points out that one year’s findings are
not to be taken too seriously, but adds
that the results are “certainly en-
couraging." Some of the plots had
side applications of nitrogen fertilizers
ten days before the first picking. A
substantial increase In yield and value
of the crop resulted when a side-dress-
ing of 200 pounds of nitrate of soda
per acre was applied in addition to
the fertilizer at planting.

An opinion frequently expressed by
tomato buyers that nitrate of
" soda and other inorganic nitro-
gen fertilizers impair the shipping
quality of tomatoes appears to have
been upset by tests at the Mississippi
Agricultural Experiment Station, the
results of which have just been an-
nounced. Not only did tomatoes fer-
tilized with a complete fertilizer in
which the nitrate of soda was the sole
source of nitrogen stand up excep-
tionally well on long shipments, but
the official records show that those re-
ceiving heavier applications stood
long express journey better than the
tomatoes having lighter amounts.
going by express the tomatoes did
have the advantage of refrigerated
cars in which long shipments are usu-
ally made.
J. L. Cooley, Jr., a graduate student
working for a Master’s degree, under-
took the tests to determine whether
large quantities of nitrate of soda
caused tomatoes to crack, “puff,” or
become irregular in shape, and also
to ascertain the keeping qualities of
such tomatoes after long express ship-
ments. The Mississippi Station had
the co-operation of the New York City
branch of the Bureau of Agricultural'
Economics of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in checking
the condition of the tomatoes. New
York was th© destination of th© ship- '
ments.
The plots were located at the
Branch Experiment Station at Ray-
mond, Miss. Two shipments of four
crates each were mad© from plots
fertilized with an 8-4-3 formula having
nitrate of soda as the sole source of !
nitrogen. The plots were fertilized at
th© rates of 1,000, 2,000, 2,500 and
3,000 pounds per acre. Arriving in
New York City from Mississippi the
tomatoes were carefully checked dur-
ing the inspection period by inspectors
of the Bureau of Agricultural Eco-
nomics.
Only six puffy tomatoes were found
in th© eight crates. Ten had growth
cracks and one was wormy. In both
shipments th© tomatoes fertilized with .
heavier applications were found to be
in better condition than those with
lighter amounts.
“Upon ripening the tomatoes had a
good deep red color and smooth tex-

r OILCLOTH AND LINOLEUM
; To Clean Oilcloth
i Oil cloth should not be scrub-
l bed with a stiff brush or mop
, or saturated with water, nor
, should sal soda or other strong
■ washing compounds be used up-
on it. The surface is nothing
but paint, and if it becomes
soaked, especially with water
containing strong soapsuds or
washing compounds, it crum- j
bles and quickly decays.
To use a large sponge with,reai SOon.

to wash oilcloth. A very little!
hard water or yellow soap may
be used if necessary.
is excellent since it leaves no
lint, and does not .admit of
scrubbing the floor hard enoughL
to crack or peal off the surface, i
After removing the dirt with
skim milk and water go over iti
a second time rinsing with a'
sponge wrung out of clear warm
water, and dry enough to take
up nearly all of the moisture,
and admit of the floor drying
quickly. Or rub it over with a.
dry wollen cloth.
Finally go over the surface;
with a rag dipped in boiled lin-
seed oil or crude petroleum oil.1
This is very cheap, costing only
8c or 10c a quart and a cloth
dipped in it will take up enough
oil to go over the floor several
times. After the cloth hasJ
been once saturated it will re-;
quire but a small quantity of
oil each time afterward.
Or use buttermilk to
tho oil cloth. Afterwards
with a sponge dipped in
water.
To Lay Oilcloths
Oilcloths may be put
without the use of tacks by
making a cooked paste of flour
and water somewhat thicker

We find out that some fellow

that the same books you like,
lie likes, that you both have the
same kink in humor, that you
both have similai’ follies or it
may be the same sandwiches.
We can pass a fellow for years
on the street, say “Howdy” and
go on until some morning some-
thing happens that gets you in-
fo conversation and behold you
find some little thing starts a
friendship. You may be at a
table with a dozen strangers at

turn your head in his direction,
your eyes meet that trifling
