Rowe of Wesley Memorial M. E. church was appo nt e1 on th licensing board by Presid ing E d j J. H. Bainiiardt The dutv of the committer is to pass upon a -plicatioi s to p each diri- g the ii -terval between the pr sent time and the next a inual conference Railroad Service is a Serious Problem Fertilizer Dealers WiH Be Required to Accumulate Orders So That Full Carloads Only Shall Be Shipped Railway Authorities, Say J Fertilizers Can Be Handled in Half Number of i M Cars Ordinarily Used A War Measure. fl i Farm Service Bureau, Atlanta, Ga. C. A. Whittle. The world is hungry. To get more food is an alarming problem. How can tfco farms produce more food when labor is so searce? How can more acres be planted to food crops 09 how can more work be given the acres usually planted with out more labor? Increase of labor is hardly to be expected, but there is one important means of help which the Southern farmei has been utilizing in the past and that is Fertilizer. But this too is beset with difficulties. Fertilizer can increase production without increasing labor except at harvest time. The warring nations appreciate this fact, and are giving all the encouragement they can to the use of fertilizers. The railroads can't do the busi ness expected of them unless every freight car is loaded to full ca pacity. To load them to full capacity the fertilizer dealer must have enough orders in to make up a full car load before he can reasonably hope to get a shipment. The earlier the carload orders are placed the better chance, of course, of getting a Shipment. Be cause of the shortage jof equipment, the railroads should have as much time as possible to plan for moving th fertilizer. Early orders will give them a knowledge of the number of car that will be needed. Government Authorities Backing It The National Council of Defense has sent out a bulletin on this very subject, urging farmers to order their fall fer tilizers earlv so full carload shipments might be made and the largest amount of human food produced. The United States Department of Agriculture through the States Re lations Service and Bureau of Soils; and agricultural colleges and coun tv aerents. are advising the same. The railroads are very urgent about the matter. The fertilizer manufac turers are offering to help the dealers and farmers as, much as possible to overcome the transportation difficul ties. i Half Cars Can Be Saved Railway authorities have statistics to show that half of the cars ordinari lv used for hauling fertilizers could do the business, if only they are load ed to their maximum capacity. Where a full ear load can not be made ud for one destination, then it is to be filled with orders for neigh boring stations along a railroad. tSMO- uSE) stff - vg LL (well HEREfev More Wheat and Oats From the South Farm Service Bureau, Atlanta, Ga. The South will be expected to take care of its share of wheat and oat production. Discouragement from the winter kill of the last season and la bor conditions make the task of keep ing up production no small one, but the country needs more of these crops if it is to take care of its allies. The prices which they are bringing, of course, do not discourage production. Even if the acreage cannot be in creased the prices which the small grains are bringing justify the very best seed bed preparation and the maximum use of fertilizer. Growing cereals, of course, do not require as much labor as growing corn and cotton, it is true, but corn and cotton will take their turn in every well planned farm. t The scant oat crop should be hus banded for seed this year. No oats are as good for planting in the South as those grown in the South, especially if they are grown in the region where they are to be planted. The same is true of wheat unless in a given see-, tion the best variety for that section has not yet been used. Good seed should be ordered early. Unless fertilizers are ordered early,! so that dealers can ship only in fuJlj carload lots it is quite probable that farmers will be disappointed when seeding time comes. The railroads -will probably have more than they can do even with full, carload shipments. It is a national necessity to see that no freight car space is wasted.
