THE SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM
No department of the University of Georgia has
. ■ met with more success than has the School of Jour
nalism, under the direction of Dr. S. V. Sanford.
lb This school was created a few years ago and it
v immediately became one of the largest departments
6 hf the institution and today it enjoys a large en-
r rollment. Each year it gro ws in popularity among
. the young men entering the university and some of
the best newspaper material in the country is bc-
yt ing turned out from this school.
■- The university authorities are indeed fortunate in
having this department in charge of Dr. Sanford.
Ho is professor of English and one of the best known
■- educators in the south. His duties keep him occu-
* pied from early morning to early morning, his hours
spreading over the afternoon (entirely. The course
given in this school is thorough and complete and a
diploma is a license, as you might say, for the holder
i to enter any newspaper office in the country and
“make good."
1 The success of the School of Journalism is due to
the knowledge of newspaper work, in a practical
way, possessed by Dr. Sanford who gives to the
school and to the young men taking his course, his
personal teaching and training in every detail which
goes to make up a complete and acturate course of
newspaper work.
THE BEEF CATTLE INDUSTRY
While it is highly important for the dairying in
dustry to bo increased in this section and more
cheese factories built, raising cattle for beef should
r not be overlooked. In this section pastures are kept
green the year round and cattle can be maintained
at a very small cost. This section of the state has an
advantage over that of the southern part of Georgia
from the fact that the cattle tick has been' eliminated
and there is no danger of its return. Beef cattle are
always in demand and a ready market can be
found and at a price profitable to the raiser. Hun
dreds of heads of beef cattle r.re being bought and
shipped to this state. It has proven a profitable
business in other sections and there is no reason why
it should not prove profitable in this section.
If the farmers in this section will invest in' several
herds of beef cattle and fatten them and offer them
for sale during the early part of the year, just before
the cultivation of their new year crops, they will
find a handsome profit in their investment. Besides
enriching the soil and pastures, the cost of their up
keep will be small and the profits will be large. It is
an industry which has not been entered in this sec
tion of the state, but it is one which could be de
veloped and made one of the most important of all.
. The abattoir and market men here could dispose
of a great amount of native beef-several times the
amount they are now handling—all because they arc
unable to find it in this section. Much beef is bought
from the west and other sections which should be
raised at home. If our people will try out the indus
try on a small scale, it will prove one of the most irm
portant and best paying enterprises here. It is worth
the trying and worth the investment; no mistake will
be made by those who commence the raising of beef
cattle.
