GENTLEMEN:— ‘
I acknowledge receipt of your Draft on the Exchange
National Bank, of Fitzgerald, Ga., in full settlement of the
pNol'g:y (I:Sarried with you by my deceased husband, Lafayette
. Buck.
With the assistance of Mr. J. R. Monroe, your General
Agent of this section, who came here immediately after you
were notified of my husband’s death, we were able to complete
the proofs and have them reach you in less than three days
after notice was sent. I see that the Draft is dated Sept.,
9215 t., the day the proofs were received by you, and it was
impossible for you to have made settlement with greater
promptness.
I am familiar with the record you have established
for immediate settlement of death claims, and know that
mine is not an exceptional case. Your reputation along
this line, and your practice of keeping on deposit with local
banks a portion of the premiums collected in each section
should strongly influence in your favor those who may de
sire Insurance.
Yours very truly,
(signed) MRS. EMILY BUCK.

To End $1.000,000 Suit
Macon, Ga., Nov. s.—Because
of an illegality in the filing of the
suits against the stockholders of
the Exchange bank, it is likely
that this $1,000,000 litigation will
be dismissed at the present term
of Bibb superior court.
The suits were recently insti
tuted by the receivers on behalf
of the creditors, and were given
to the clerk of the court on Aug.
22, with the instructions to with
hold service until notified. *He
was notified on October 26, and
then the suits were served, bear
ing the August date. This is said
to be technically at variance with
the law, and as a result the suits
must be dismissed.

Scores of stray dogs were slaugh

The city authorities ordered the
butchering of the animals, which

The State College of Agriculture
has been able to raise forty bushels
of oats per acre on l!and devoted to
cotton the previous year, and follow
with a crop of cow-peas, thus produc
ing an abundance of grain and hay
for live stock during the succeeding
fall and winter. If one has area
enough he can plant part for grain
and part for hay. To grow hay, mix
about 30 pounds of hairy vetch with
five or eight pecks of oats. This
combination, when seeded in the open
GEORGIA'S ECONOMICAL DAIRY
FEED.
By M. P. Jarnagan, Professor of Ani
mal Husbandry.
Question—What is the most eco
‘nomical and valuable ration for a dai
ry cow that can be grown in Georgia?
Cotton seed meal and oats as a
grain ration, silage with pea-vine hay,
oats, straw or corn stover for rough
age. Generally speaking a pound of
grain should be fed for every gallon
of milk. Five pounds of cotton seed
meal and. three pounds of threshed
oats is the proper proportion of each
when they alone are used for thel
grain food. For roughage, 40 pounds
of silage for every 1,000 pounds of
live weight supplemented with pea-‘
vine, hay, oats, straw or corn stover!
in quantities that the cows require.‘
' Bairy Profit on Georgia Feeds.
Question—What profit can be ob
tained from the best and most eco
nomical feeding of dairy cattle in
Georgia?
Feeding as mentioned above, the
State College of Agriculture has dem
onstrated on. its own farm and with
its own herd, that milk can be pro
duced at 5.97 cents per gallon feed
case. This is practically 6 cents a
gallon. The College finds a ready
market at 40 cents per gallon.
Value of Mules From Heavy Stock.
Question—What would be the aver:
age value of a mule from a Percher
on mare or other heavy draft stocki
as compared with a mule from the or-‘
dinary light mare? '
From $4O to $45 and the work he
would do in excess of the light mule'
would be worth more than that each
year. 1

two and a half tons may be frequent:

may also be devoted to pasture dur
ing a part of the winter season Wwith
success. :
With abundant roughness supplied
as indicated above and by feeding the
cotton seed meal which we are now
sending off to other farmers to feed,
a great economic change would take
place in the agricultural conditions of
Georgia.
KILL ANTHRACNOSE BY ROTA.
, TION.
| By R. J. H. DeLoach, Professor Cotton
Industry.
Question—Will deep plowing and
' turning under cotton stalks kill out
!anthracnose of cotton?
No. Rotation or abandonment of
the infected field for a period of
three years, alone is successful. If
| you intend to take chances and re
| plant cotton on the same ground,
'clear off the stalks and burn them, es
pecially if badly infected.
| gelection of Seed and Anthracnose.
) Question—Should seed be selected
from field where anthracnose has ap
| peared?
| Seeds can carry the spores of an
thracnose to new fields. Care should
be taken to select seed from stalks
not close to those which have been
attacked. It is probable that seed
’ot plants taken from near those
which have been attacked, but which
‘have shown a power of resistance to
‘the disease, are the most to be desir
‘ed, but until complete scientific data
‘has been secured on the subject, it is
better to avoid the appearance of the
disease as far as possible.

boys this year.
