H. 0. DAVIS,
Atlanta, Ga., June.—On Septem
ber 11 there will open in Atlanta a
new institution of higher learning to
be known as Lanier University, for
which a charter haa already been se
cured and the nucleus of a very able
faculty engaged under the presidency
pf Dr. C. Lewis Fpwler, one of the
Mst known educators in the South.
The University is the utgrowth of
work by leading Baptists denomina
tions throughout Georgia, and will be
unique among , southern institutions'
'of higher learning in that it will be
co-educstional. v
Only young women will be admitted
to the boarding department for the
first two or three years, however, al
though there will be large classes
composed both of young Women and
young men. A standard four-year’
college course will be offered, there
will be a. strong musical faculty, and
special attention will be given to do
mestic science.

Atlanta, Ga.—“Jn the coura* of the next one or two yeaw general adop
tion of the plan we are now working out, and co-operation by common ty
Interests, will almost certainly mean that Georgia is going to be exporting
millions of dollars worth of food stuff*, which, in past years, wj bare been
importing/ Already there 1* a tendency In that direction, which means we
are ultimately gofug to 'move the corn belt to Georgia,’ and Just bow soon
that more wlll.be actually made depends now only on how geaeral the com
munity Interest becomes and how much Interest each community manifests
in itself.” 80 *ays Lem B. Jackson, director of the Market Bureau of the
State department of Agriculture, and aecretary of the State Food Connell.
When Commissioner J. J. Brown engaged Director Jackson to organise
and get In working order the new branch of the agricultural department, first
attention turned to evolving some mothod which would be practical in ito
operation by which the-several counties in Georgia could be brought actively
.jUJ^tha^worfr in a way that would be beneficial to the local communities,
and.jtf&p&frh the state bureau, tbe products of all the counties would find the
channels leading directly to the centers of greatest demand for each of the
varied, products.
The European war conditions brought forth the demand for a state coun
cil on production aifffl conservation of food and feed stuffs, and out of that

im’arso" offering
collection of produce from all the farmers; the
of a home market among the dealers which will have demand
ly absorb the saleable surplus products of the farms when they
Iy for the market
In the operation of this plan every business house, bsnker and commer
cial enterprise In every county In Georgia Is being offered—and very largely
they are accepting—an opportunity to throw himself and some of his re
sources Into local community development and protection of home farms
and farmers against loss.
As adjuncts to the State Food Connell, local councils are being formed
1b every county In tbe state, subject to service throughout the period of the
war. These wofl^ln conjunction, with.qgd through the state council, the
central or state organisation being ip the nature: of tbe hab-and tbe county
councils the spokes'of a great business wheel. Ibe rim of wblcb is tbe outside
expanse of the state of Georgia. “We expect from these county or com-
inunity organisations,’’ says Mr. Jackson,, “whole-hearted co-operation In
perfecting organisation of county agricultural clearing bouses where the farm
products of tlujt county may be taken, and to which the State Bureau may
direct the demands of the larger market centers of tbe country for supplying
the country’s demands. Primarily these councils, the state council aa well,
are designed as a measure to meet war conditions. Necessarily they will,
though, In successful operation during the period of war, become of such Tast
importance to the farmers snd the business enterprises of tbe state that they
will, much of tbeir own weight, live on after the war has ended. Just at this
time, In the working out of the general plan, what the farmer needs most Is
more help and less advice—help by tbe organisation of local market bureau!
or warehouse companies where he is sure of being able to place his produce
when It has beeen grown and prepared for market.” _
In the past few weeks some 12 or 14 of these county, market bureaus
have beeen organised, financed by local men of business, professional and
agricultural calling, and are getting themselves In shape to handle the farm
stuff when It Is offered to them In whatever quantity. Field agents of tbe
State Market Bureau are still actively at work In the counties furthering these
local organizations and getting them In line with the state bureau
The follow-up for that, which also has been started, is the offer of a
pledge that will go to yery wholesale house la the state to buy and sell
Georgia-grown farm products In preference to any other. One city in the
state has been "felt out” among the wholesalers along thar line, and prac
tically every dealer approached with it signed the pledge without hesitancy
They arc for It. The same pledge will he sent to every community in the
state In the iiextjew days.
The State Market Bureau asks that any county in Georgia which has not
yet been organized write at once for Information and, In the Interest of the
county itself, the work of perfecting a local organization be taken up and
put through without delay. Every possible assistance will be accorded by
the state department In the work, and correspondence is solicited.
