This can be done in our section
if farmers don't get stampeded and
give. up. This has been the trou
ble in many ocuntiea when the
wegyil appeared. He says there is
not enough calcium arsenate to
neat' go around if ever)* farmer
used this poison on his cotton, and
then again, many farmers are not
able to but it. Very few notv use
poison In Macon county, hut have
adopted other und chea|ier means
to combat the pest. He mentioned
farmers In Macon county, one
using calcium arsenate at a coat
of about 311 per acre, und the oth
er spent the money paying hla
hands to pick up punctured squares
and otherwise keeping down the
weevil. The alter made mots cot
ton per acre than his neighbor did
by the use of poison. Mr. Prior says
that he favors the use of calcium
arsenate, but Just because n farm
er cannot get poison is no reason
why he should abandon hope of
raising cotton. Calcium arsenate la
ail right, but you cannot grow cot
ton under boll weevil conditions by
the use of poison alone. But Mr.
Prior Is satisfied that the pros
perity of our farmers docs not ul
together depend on cotton, but he
favors the planting of other crops,
and is a' great believer in alfalfa,
and which he says can be success
fully and profitably grown in thia
section.
Just at this time he is busy
ganlzing pig clubs among boys on
the farm. In two.communities he
has organized thirteen boys who
have Joined the pig club and haa
eleven more romfnunities In the
county to organize. The boys on the
farms ore Joining right along. This
is an important step toward living
at home. The boys raise thorough
bred hogs and some like one breed
and soipe another. The old pig club
boys have Joined and will lend
their uld and experience.

Mr. Frior says he has recently
visited the Wlntervllle Pure Seed
Anroclatlon and Is enthuelqstic
about its workings and success
The chief meaion of this associa
tion is to restore the staple of cot
ton rrown in the Piedmont section
and Which has been lowered by
the planting of smalt boll and
short staple cotton to combat the
boll weevil. This year the mem
bers of this association around
Wlntervllle will plant 1,600 acres
of College No. 1 cotton and save
every seed.
Mr. Frior says he conaidera this
Pure Seed Asociation the moat Im
portant and commendable ' move
ment ever organized by our farm
ers and he will closely watch Its
workings
(He,also visited the beautiful and
rnoden farm of Mr Harold Hul-ne
and la loud In his praise of Mr.

Mr, Frior hoe klndW promised

feature and of very nrsu Inlercrt
and benefit to farmers I have
greater hopes than ever for our
farmers under the guidance of Mr.
Frior. He Is unquestionably the
right man in the right place.
Mr. Frior told the that last week
a lot of cotton was actually ship
ped from Massachusetts- to Athens
for use In eur mills This Is cer
tainly like carrying coal to New
castle. This was Egyptian cotton
sod handled by Mr. John D. Moss
who said It) was nothing e'xtr
the way of/a stapls I had always
been under the Impression that the
cotton grown on the Nile in Egypt
was a long staple Uke our sea Is
land and It would not compete with
our short staple.

I also had a moat pleasani chat
with my good friend Mr. Claude
Tuck, one of our largest and most
progressive farmers. Mr. Tuck said
that while many negroes had left,
they had a sufficient numUer to
cultivate their crops and would
manage somehow to get along. He
said be would this year run ITS
plows and plant about 164 acres In
cotton, or about four scree to tfie
plow. Of course he would use cal-'
clum arsenate. Mr. Tuck to a great
belever In the Southern Cotton
Marketing Association and says
every farmer ought to Join It
In discussing the exodus of ne
gross, Mr. Tuck said, when Qov-
error Hardwick announced {hat
the Federal Reserve Bank would
Ant loan money for speculative pur
poses, It gave buyers and manu
facturers notice that all the staple
held by farmers must be sold at tha
expiration of six months when
their notes were due. and the price
of cotton began to drop, at onoe
until It only brought ten rente per
pound. This meant ruin to ninny,
planters and brought about the'
bard (tines. But for this act farm
ers wou(d have received a fair
price for hie cotton and could have
aflbi^ed to supply hands and this
wBbieaale exodus of negrdaa from
the South to the North would not
have rnl:en p are. lie , ttributes 11,
condition of tha cotton growers
more to this action of calling In
loans and the declaration of Oov-
ernor Hardwick than the ravages
of the boll weevil. >

WANTED
Every father and mother in Athens and vicinity to-acquire
Gold Savings Certificates
as an example to their.children and to others.
The doctrine of THRIFT is the greatest of all worldly doc
trines and any action which teaches that doctrine is measureless
in value. i .
The thrift of the people of this section as reflected in their
savings is one of bhe most hopeful and encouraging signs of the
tithe.
Their savings are now more than four times as-much as they
were five years ago and in five years more they can just as well
be ten times as much, as they are now.
Athens and vicinity is the best place on earth to live, but the
people rich in savings will make it better even than now.
Gold Savings Certificates are not the only means, but they
make an attractive means to that end. Nothing better.
