State Market Bureau
Atlunta, Ga., August— (Spec
ial)--The Georgia State Bureau |
of Markets is now well organ
ized and ready to extnd any as
sistance the farmers of Geor
gia may need in the marketing
of their surplus food products.
Blanks have been printed up
on which any person may spec
ify what he has to sell or what
he wishes to buy. These blanks
will be furnished to anyone de
siring them, upon application.
This information is then kept
right before the department,
and at the first opportunity the
seller and buyer are brought in
to touch with each other.
Director L. 15. Jackson of the
market bureau, in accordance
with the recent act of the Leg
islature, has already made his
bond of $5,000 and filed it with
the Governor. He is now pre
pared to handle every case that
needs marketing attention. All
yho desire any information
with regard to the marketing of
food products, or wish blanks
upon which to list what they
have to sell or what they wish
to buy, should correspond di
rectly with the Department,
and each request will be given
prompt attention.
With the sanction of the State
Legislature, the Georgia State
Bureau ol Markets has alieady
gone to work upon the prob
lem of organizing local market
depots in every county in the
state. It is giving first attention
to those who have requested
assistance.
Any county which wishes to
organize n local depot for the
purpose of assembling food
products in carload lots for
shipment and sale, or which
wishes to join neighboring
counties in this work, should
call on the Department for as
sistance. Many of these local
market depots have already
been organized; others are sim
ply awaiting their turn. Each
case will be taken up in turn
and organization perfected as
early as possible. The market
bureau is anxious to have every
farmer in Georgia feel that it
is his, and to call on it for what
he wknts
The department of Agricul
ture believes the most import
ant thing it is doing right now—
at least one of them —is urging
the statewide planting of winter
wheat.
No plow should be idle this
winter. Plant at least two acres
of wheat to every plow you
have, from October Ist to De
cember 15th, according to your
climate, and where wheat
grows finest, plant more. The
good wheat growing counties
should put out at least five to
six acres to the plow ; no county
should have less than an avei
age of two acres to the plow.
Figuring the lowest estimat
ed yield, this must mean ten
bushels to the acre, or 10,000-
000 bushels in Georgia this year
enough to feed the entire state.
But that is what we want be
cause it is what we have got to
have.
Wheat for seed is one of the
big and important agricultural
problems this fall. Many sec
tions have all they need ; others
are at a loss as to where to get
Bankers, merchants and lo
cal county food councils should
get together NOW and solve
the seed problem. The state
market bureau stands ready to
help. Those who need seed and
cannot get it, should apply to
the market bureau. Those who
have seed to sell should list it
with the market bureau.
But by all means, Georgia
must raise this tall and winter j
enough wheat, rye barley and
cover crops to take care ot her-j
self. We can no longer depend
on outside agencies. |
The market bureau is now
business ready to render
vice to the producers and con-,
sumers. The citizens of the
State, any and all of them, are
welcome to call on it. It will
do its very best to respond to
their needs.

PLEASANT VIEW
Mr. Editor if you will furnish
me space in your paper I will
write a different kind of dot
this time. I wish to say first of
all that we can have a paper
that is worth reading if we will
try. So let’s try at all times to
improve.
Now we are all guilty of doing
wrong in some way or at some
time, so we ought to think of
this and not be so ready to find
fault in the other fellow. I
have learned that if I will do
right the other fellow is apt to
be right, but listen when I am
wrong it seems like my neigh
bor is wrong also and maybe
he is willing to do any thing he
:an for me and no doubt that
very fellow is praying for me.
Now let us see what we are do
ing. We are going to church
and hearing the gospel preach
ed almost every Sunday. We
have our bibles to read and yet
it seems like we are hard to get
harnessed up.' Now is it true
.he churches have baptized the
'ewest people this year that we
have heard of in years and yet
"here is just as many folks in sin
as we have ever seen. Now it
wont be long untill all the old
folks will be gone and someone
will have to take their places
in the church work. I want to
say ten years ago we could an
nouce a prayer meeting at a
school house or any where else
and the house would be full of
people and we would have a
good meeting. How is it now
we can’t get enough people to
come to have a prayer meeting.
What is the trouble? Is our
minds all togethr on the things
of this world and we have no
time to think of the Lord? Now
church members just think for
a moment in the right way, ev
ery one of us is making some
kind of a record that is going to
be read out some day. Will we
be glad to hear it, or will we be
ashamed of it? Now it i~ nt ver
too ia ;e r.o do good and if our
past record is bad wouldn’t 't
be better for th last of our re
cord to be good than it would
for it to be all bad, so let us all
at the end of each day think
back over the things we have
done and if we ar not satisfied
with what w have done then ask
the Lord to forgive us and we
will be heard because he says
he will forgive usif we ask in
the right way.

The Human Factors
In Good Service
There are three parties to every tele
phone conversation —the party calling,
the trained operator, and the party who
answers. All three share alike the respon
sibility for quick and accurate telephone
service.
The calling party should give the cor
rect number in a distinct voice, speak
ing directly into the transmitter, and
wait at the telephone until the party an
swers or the operator reports. The called
party should answer promptly.
Patience on the part of the telephone
user and the telephone operator is also es
sential to good service.
