( SENATOR BOYCE FICKLEN, SR.
Senator Boyce Ficklcr., Sr., senator of this, the
50th district, is rendering most valuable service to
i the educational institutions located here. He has in
troduced a resolution for the allotment of $100,000
for the support of the State Normal School; this
amount to be deducted from the state public school
fund which amounts to over four million dollars.
This resolution is based on the fact that when the
• State Normal School was established it was specifi
cally stated in theuact that this school was to be an
integral part of the public school system of Georgia.
It is a well known fact that this school furnishes
* to the .common schools of the state hundreds of
. thoroughly equipped teachers for the rural schools.
)' In fact one of the requirements in the act creating
■ V the school makes it mandatory on teachers graduat
ing from this institution be required to teach'at least
three years in the schools of the state.
Senator Ficklen has received many compliments
on the introduction of this resolution from friends of
' the school and many members of the general as-
i sembly. Governor Walker was very much pleased
when he learned of the action of Senator Ficklen and
called the senator to his office and thanked him for
1 the stand he had taken and assured him that he was
in full sympathy with the resolution.
> Senator Ficklen is one of the most influential mem-
i bers of the upper house of the general assembly and
enjoys the esteem and-Confidence of his fellow mem-
1 ben to the utmost.
ANOTHER WEEK FOR THE WEEVIL
If the farmers can hold the boll weevil in check
f for another week there will be little danger of the
: . pest doing much damage to the cotton crop this year.
So far the season has been most admirable for the
destruction of the weevil. The farmen have worked
with a determination to drive the weevil from his
f lair and so far they have succeeded. A continued
dry and hot season of a week will have the desired
V effect of eradicating the weevil in this section.
tiT-J " While the acreage is riot full, yet there will she
r more cotton produced in this section than at any time
» during the boll weevil -regime. The plant was nev-
' er finer and. the squares gnd bolls are developing
rapidly and soon it will lm too late for the weevil to
get in his deadly work. But from now until the
boll is matured, wo should watch and dust and,keep
informed absolutely of the first appearance 6f the
weevil. Now that the crop ia practically made, let
us hold that which we have regardless of the rav-
! ages of the weevil.

IMPROVE SYSTEM OF ROAD SIGNS
While Georgia ia fairly equipped with rAid signs
on the (highways, yet there are many of the roads
{■ which are not thoroughly posted. This is an all-im-
| portant matter and such signs bl.ould be posted at
V intervals enabling the travelers to find their way
without inconvenience. It may be said that the
careful; driver experlences'no trouble in finding the
way from one point to Mother and that it is only the
reckless driver who sometimes fail to see the signs
directing: to thiB or that point There is much in this
contention 'and the argument is worth while, hut
there remains nevertheless, an absence of kigns on
many 'of the important highways which has proved
a great inconvenience to the traveling public.
Georgia can well afford/to spend the amount nee-,
sary to complete the system of posting signs en
ding the public traversing the highways to reach
tneir destination without inconvenience and joss of
time.
No doubt the highway department will see to it
that all main highways will be thoroughly posted
with signs for the benefit of travelers and tourists.
CAN AND PRESERVE NOW
• This is the season for canning and preserving fruits

of the finest variety. The family which is not sup-

George O’Kelley raised every
maner of food and feed crop grown
in this sectiom His alfalfa was
killed last spring by. the cold, bdt
he has hia land sowed down in
cowpeas ready for replanting next
fall, e has a beautiful krove of
pecans, sixty eleven-year-old tree*
laden with nuts. It would pay any
farmer to travel a long distanre
to aee this beautiful and model
farm. Every foot of land has been
brought up Uvtho hiyhest-state of
productiveness by scientific culti
vation and legume crops.
But the most interesting depart
ment of Mr- O’Kelley’s farm is hit
chickens. Ho has 60 hens In all—
150 Black Jersey Giants, and the
othej-a Rhode Island Reds and
White Leghorns. He is a believer
in the Black Jersey Giants, a* they
good layers- and attain great
size, almost as large aa turkey,
hens. Ho says the R. I. Reds are
a find strain of poultry, both
for eggs and rapid growth. Mr.
O’Kelley got his start ih chickens
by buying eggs or chicks from
high class prize winning breed
ers. He nays there is as much In
the strains of poultry as in horses
or any oth^r animal. To ljave good
layers and choice chickens you
must breed from fowls with an es-
tnblishcd record. He is now im
proving his flock by crossing with
tho finest strains in America- He
keeps posted on the record of
every poultry breeder and pays
great prices for eggs from choice
strains.
But Georgo O’Kelley’s pride is
his Whiter Leghorns. The breeder of
champion, record breaking Lef.
horns lives in the state of Wash
ington. He owns the prize-win
ning hen, "Lady Jewafl,’’ and for
which fowl he refused' 92,
From hona of this strain he has
a laying record of 336 eggs a year
Eggs laid by “Lady Jewell” he
sells for |50 each and has orders
nhcad for them at that price. Mr.
O’Kclley orderd sixty eggs from
th»« breeder but as it took four
days to get tho «gg> across tho
continent ho only hatched sixteen
chicks—eight pullets and eight
roosters. He of course devoted
special care to this bunch of
chicks and raised them all. They
urn now about two-thirds grown
and beauties. lie will mate the
cocks with his best pullets and
improve hia entire flock. He will
have tho greatest string of White
LogHorns in the world-
Rode With Davis
But Mr. O’Kellay has ono White
Leghorn cockerel that is his pride,
being the finest fowl In the south.
When he ordered eggs from that
Washington breeder, to show his
appreciation for such a large order
from a distant state, he sent Mr
O’Kelley as a present an egg laid
by "Lady Jewell.” Mr. O’Kelley
placed In tho Incubator the 950
egg and from It hatched a cock.
Of course Mr. O’Kclley gave this
bird especial care and atfentioft’
and it Is a beauty. Ho values It at
7360 but no reasonable sum will
buy it. Mr. O’Kelley will mate this
bird with his best laying hens and
will thus have a pen of fowls that
cannot be equalled in the south
But all of his chickens Wer.* hatch

not be • cont.mt until he has thr

for this jiectloq for It shows what

brought It up to produce crops that
are the admiration of every pvser.
