SPLENDID MEETING
THOROUGHLY ENJOYED.
All this came after n splendid
meeting at the Georgian hotel. A
meeting that was full ’o pep.
splendid singing and several good
talks. Eustice Stevens introduced,
through his quartette, two new
songs. “Carolina” and “My Ram
bler Rose” and then Mr. Phinizy
said a word about the district con
vention in St. Petersburg, Fla.,
on the 23rd and 24th of this month.
After looking over the posters
distributed it was evident that a
full attendance will be on hand
from Athchs to respond to the
greetings of all those bathing
beauties ‘negerything. •
The meeting of the 21st of the
month will be the one for nomi
nating new officers and immediate
ly afterwards the Relegation will
leave for Florida.
An enjoyable story, “Wait till
Mattin Comes,” by Harry Still
well Edwards was told to the club
while- Mr. Walbridge spoke in a
happy tone of Athens and the club
and I. T. Kilpatrick told of being
the guest of the Aberdeen, Miss.,
club a few days ago and what tk
wonderful organization it was.
James White spoke of his busi
ness, cotton manufacturing and
was introduced as a “yam spin
ner." ,
The meeting was a splendid
one, typical of those the Rotarians
{hold weekly and Athens is to be
I congratulated on possessing such
organization.

T^cre were also reports from New

seemed to encourage reactionary
sentiment on the decline which
carried May contracts off to 31.15

“Farming in Massachusetts,”
ssld this publication, “has chang
ed from extensive to Intensive
crop production. The Importance
of a state agriculturally Is usually
rated according to her production
of grain,, beef cattle and swine,
with little attention to such crops
as potatoes, onjons, market garden
vegetables, orchard fruits ,and
berries. It to In these agricultural
specialties that Massachusetts tncj,
the other New England states ex
cel.”
Giving detailed figures compare
lng farm costs and. production Id
Massachusetts and In a certain
western grain growing state, tbe
publication sets the general value
of tbe whole farm crop per acre
here at $59.10 and In the western
state at’ $19.20.
Various methods to -tiring about
the-desired result are being work
ed out. Farmers are being encour
aged to devote thousands' of acrei
of land, which havo been proved
toe barrhn for raising crops, to
the creation of new/ forests to re
place those cut down by lumber
men. Dairy farmers, livestock own
era, and fruit growers are f6rm
lng cooperative associations for
buying' feed, fertiliser and other
supplies, and for marketing their
products. '
In Aroostook county,' . Maine,
which Ireds tbe country in potato
raising, • campaign la In prngross
to Increase interest In bettering
the crop, grading 19 properly for
market, and ahlllng It to the best
advantage. In Vermont livestock
owners are getting together In a
’’better sires, better stock” .effort
In New Hampshire the extension
qptwice of New Hampshire Col
lege has mapped out * program
of aaslstance to farmer* which in
cludes detailed studies of selected
(arms In different parts which In
cludes detailed studies of selected
farms tn different parts of the

production and cost records to de
termine the m,ost profitable farm
methods. vPrunlng and spraying
demonstrations are being arranged

Professor John C. Graham, of
the Massachusetts Agricultural
College, thinks that New England
should go in more extensively tor
poultry raiding. “A great and

he says,'“can be based upon the
