Peanuts are the third-ranking cash crop in Georgia, averaging $60 million a year. South Georgia farmers grow about one third of the U.S. crop, Georgia ranks first among all states in acres of pea nuts produced, and a 13 county area produces over 50 per cent of the state's allotted acres. These coun ties, ranked according to acres are to be found in this section of central Georgia. Clean up time is just as important now as it was in early spring. It would pay us all to look at the front and sides and back of our stores and cut down the grass that is rapidly growing. That is our per sonal job, not the cities.

Don’t jump or dive frem a moving boat. Be sure every one wears a life jacket. Don’t ven ture too far from shore. David Lawrence writes in the U. S. News and World Report: “Our tax system is today a hodgepodge of political chicanery, It defies the basic principles of fairness. Above all, it undermines individual in itiative. Those citizens who risk their funds and give their energies to enterprises that create jobs are discouraged by tax rates that re sult in virtual confiscation of their earnings. The demagogic cry is not enlightened self-interest even for the Treasury. For it means kill ing the goose that lays the golden eggs. The overhauling qf ,our whole fax structure Is long over due.
