The twenty-second annunl report
of the Georgia experiment station has
Just been published. It should be
carefully rend by oil Georgia farmers,
for It is full of valuable Information.
A feature of this report Is the un
miul report of the director, Hon. Mar
tin V. Calvin. This Is his third re
port as the director of this institution,
imm rpnort even those who
,i unnw the man will readily
recognize that no mistake was maile
when he was placed in this responsi
ble nnaitinn There is no man in the
Stute better qunllfled than he to fill
it. An indefatigable worker, he car
ried into this Held of work a. love for
Jt and a practical knowledge which
are causing the states expernin-nv
station to accomplish really what it
was designed to accomplish, and
make it a great factor in auvancms
agriculture In the State.
In Director Calvin s annual report
the various subjects are. of course,
nniv summarized. In their variety
they show the extent of the station's
activity and the all-emm-acing na
ture of the efforts that are being
made to lead the farmers to advance
in every line of farm industry. But
even in this summary form Plrector
Calvin's report contains more meat
for progressive farmers than any nut
of equal size which might ba chosen.
For instance, Just one short para
graph refers to co-operative dairying,
and yet a wide and most interesting

Years ago. under other directors, ef
forts were made at the star ion 10 in
i,nii,i nhoPKB makinir In the State
Enrns were built, a chcese-mnkins
r,ii,T,t instituted and an experienced
cheese maker put in charge. As in
Mr roivin'a TAnort no menuon 10
made of this, the presumption Is that
cheese making has been abandoned.
But if this be the case, the other

Is receiving more attention, which It
deserves. Efforts are toeing maue 10

and one of the finest herds of Jerseys
in the country Is kept at the stauon.

and everything pertaining to dalry

Why should not our farmers estab
lish co-operative dairies? This would
certainly be a profitable business.
More stock should be kept on the

to raise and keep cattle, as well as
to have a steady source of Income
from the farm.
Butter is always in good flemanu,

crease this demand; standard dairy

price. The farmer may not be fixed

involve greater expense than the
farmer cares to assume, and the lat
ter would place too heavy a nuruen

of a number of farmers a butter-mak
ing plant could be establlsuea at some
eligible place and put In charge of a
competent manager, to whom th-!
cream could oe aeuverea aan, as
now done at co-operative cheese-making
plants.

the farm, in addition to the regular
crop income, wntie at me sumo nmc

A DIFPICULT TASK.
Sheep Husbandry.
The writer has recently received a
letter bearing upon wool conditions
In thla country from a gentleman In
an Eastern State, who is one of the
highest authorities upon wool grow
ing and distribution, ana wnose so
nice is frequently sought by Con
gressional committees when matters
are pending concerning wool in Bheep
districts ot this country. He takes
occasion in this letter to Bay tbat he
i st a lrats to understand why. with
the development ot the South along
industrial lines generally, and the
evident enterprise that IB Demg ais
played, that the growing of wool is
not promoted to a greater extent. He
also states mat, in ms opiuiun, mo
large bulk of the best wools in this
country can and should be grown

This man has stated general condi
tions so correctly that I am influenced

In the South only the first few
inches of soil Is stirred and the crops
feed near the surface, resulting in
quick soli depletion. Roots seek
food. When ground is plowed deep

depth loosened, and the roots go
deep, supporting the plant well and
furnishing an abundance of no iriBh
