Georgia’s Mounting
Taxes
Georgia’s tax load is ever mounting
and if there are those who thought
practically all taxes would vanish or
be materially reduced by Governor
Talmadge, they are in for a sad dis
appointment.
Qovernor Talmadge has been She
greJitest tax gatherer in the history
of the state. Just read the figures:
State Auditor Thrasher announces
that tax collected in Georgia for the
year ending July 1, 1942, totaled the
staggering and record-breaking sum
of $58,893,568. This compares with
a collection of $52,431,190 in the pre
vious fiscal year ending July y, 1941,
with Talmadge also governor at that
time. The state audit shows the tax
collections in Georgia for the year
ending July 1, 1939, the total was $43,-
363, OzO.
Governor Talmadge has imposed
more taxes and is spending more
money than any governor in the his
tory of the state. All this without the
legislative check which other gover
nors have had.
NEWS FORCE ENJOYS MELON
Ole Man Sam Tate was passing on
posted land the other day, just be
fore discovering that he was on the
other fellows land he ran across a
few nice melons growing wild along
close to the woods, so as he had been
telling the News force that when his
melons was ripe he would bring one
to prove that his melons was the fin
est in the county. So one day last
week he brought in the melon, it had
signs of being handled rough so we
asked what had happened to the mel
on and he told us this tale. Said that
Arnold Williams melons was larger
than his, however on the way to Ar
nold’s patch he ran across these few
melons along the woods that had been
pulled from some one’s patch so think
ing they had come fron Arnold's he
decided to bring us one of them. After
he was half way to town he met Geo.
Fowler and they stopped and chatted
and he told George what a good one
he had on Arnold, so Geo. says. So
I See. So George got in the model T
Truck and came back to town with
Sam and on his way he told Sam that
be had carried these melons out near
the woods and was on his way back
for them, and that he had intended
getting them out of Arnold's patch,
but upon arriving near, he spied Ar
nold so he decided to make a visit to
his patch, so this fs why we had to
eat Sam Tate's melon instead of Ar
nold Williams.
KUDZU FOR HAY
Well established stands of kudzu
can provide two cuttings of hay to
help meet the increased feed require
ments on many farms this year, if the,
first cutting is made before the end
of July, according to J. T. Coots, as
sistant soil conservationist of the up
per Chattahoochee river soil conser
vation district.
When kudzu is cut for hay in June
or July, the plants have time to make
new growth and build up a reserve
food supply in the roots by the end of
summer, Mr. Coots points out.
Another cutting can then be made
just before the first frost in the late
fall. Frost will then come before the
plants have time to make new growth
and exhaust the starchy material in
the roots. This reserve food supply
will be carried through the winter
and enable the plants to make a vig
orous new growth in the spring.
If kudzu is cut in August or Sept
ember, the plants will make new
growth during the fall, but will not
have time to store up a food supply
in the roots before the first frost. The
plants will then be exhausted when
frost comes and will go through the
winter and into the spring growing
season in a weakened condition.
Many farmers with well established
stads of kudzu will want to make two
cuttings of hay to meet thei rincreas
ed feed requirements in the war ef
fort, Mr. Coots explained. But unless
the first cutting is made before the
end of July, it will not be safe to cut
kudzu until late fall, probably in Nov_
ember.
FRUIT DRYING
When drying fruits or vegetables in
the sun it is best to use slatted or
wire'trays, covered top and bottom,
to keep out dust and insects. The
trays or cloths in which the food is
put should be placed in a south slant
ing position so that the food receives
thedirect rays of the sun.
A ventilated glassed-in box which
acts as a hot bed intensifying the
sun’s heat is an excellent drier since
it provides a higher temperature and
quicker drying. The glassed-in sides
will serve as protection from the rain
By leaving the ends of the box open,
except fo ra covering of ine netting,
air circulation is provided for.
If wire or slatted trays are placed
on a tin roof sloping toward the south
the fruit or vegetable will get the dir
ect rays of the sun and drying will be
hastened. Here, too, trays mu:' be
covered with thin white cloths and
raised high enough from the tin roof
to allow a free circulation of air.
Where cheap electric power is avail
able a fan may be used to help with
the drying. After the material has
been exposed to the sun and is partly
dried, several trays may be stacked
together, separated by pieces of wood
to permit circulation of air, and the
fan placed at one end to drive the air
over them.
Best results will be obtained from,
a fan if the trays are stacked on an
open sunny porch so the fan will help
with the regular air movement.
As the material near the fan will
dry faster, it will be necessar yto re
verse the trays occasionally.

GEORGIA TO GET
NEW LEGUME SEED
IN COMING MONTH
Reinforcements, in the form of am
ple winter legume seed, will begin
arriving in Georgia by mid-August to
support for a blistering blitz on agri
culture’s twin enemies, Erosion and
Soil-Depletion. H. V. Fincher, chair
man of the Forsyth County AAA com
mittee, said this week
Chairman Fincher's announcement
came on the heels of disclosure that
the prospective winter legume seed
supply will be about double that of
last year. The U. S. Department of
Agriculture last fall appealed to Pa
cific coast growers for a greatly in
creased seed production acreage and
pledged price support, in an effort L
obtain needed quantities of nitrogen
producing seedlings.
“Tremendous quantities of nitrates
are being used In munitions inanti
facture," Mr. Fincher said, “Supplies
for agricultural use are limited. That
means that farmers must grow their
own. and winter legumes, such as
vetches, Austrain winter peas, and
clover, offer the answer. All of these
will help to restore productive vigor
to the soil.”
The county AAA chairman also
said indications are that supplies of
phosphate for use in connection with
winter legume seed may be limited,
but that the AAA has arranged to
furnish farmers with basic slag to
supplement the phosphate supplies.
It is indicated, he added, that some
12,000,000 pounds of winter legume
seed will be required for Georgia this
year. In this connection, he said, the
AAA has arranged for farmers partic
ipating in the program to obtain seed
and pay for them later out of pay
ments earned under the AAA pro
gram. Co-operating farmers, he -said,
may earn payments which will pract
ically cover the cost of the seed.
Department of Agriculture officials
have cited three factors as reasons
for emphasizing winter legume seed
ing practices this fall:
1. If the nation’s farms are going
to maintain this year’s record-break
ing Food tor Freedom production,
every effort must be made to keep
the land at peak production strength.
Any attempt to draw on present soil
fertility without replacing it is a dan
gerous gamble that might result in
sharply declining food and fiber pro
duction later in the war and in the
post-war period when most of the
world will look to American farmers
for food and clothing.
2. Many of the war crops - - crops
vital to the agricultural war effort
being produced this year in quantities
never before approached, are soil-de
pleting. Continued peak production of
these crops makes it imperative that
fertility be restored to farmlands.
3. Normally, the need of the soil
for renewed productive energy would
be met, fo rthe most part, by appli
cations of nitrogen fertilizer to the
land. This year, however, demand of
war industries for this material fo be
used in the manufacture of ammunit
ion is so heavy that many farmers
may not be able to get adequate
nitrogen fertilizer supplies The only
effective substitute for fertilizer di
verted in this manner, officials saj*
is the growing of legumes that trans
fer nitrogen from the air to the soil.
