his reader ‘here is calculated to
make a sotnder reader of him.

Drewry’s analysis “will help the

Better Family Life, As Conirasted
With Making A Living, Is Advocaled
- Many Georgia farm and rural
families spend so much time
making a living that there isn’t
much time left for “family liv
ing,” Miss Martha McAlpine,
child development and family life
speeialist for the Agricultural Ex
tension Service, declared today.
“Durjng the war years, shortwi
ages of farm labor and equip
ment along with the demands!
made of farmers and their fami
lies for food, fibers and other
farm productsineeded for the war
effort left little time for trying to
improve family life and the rela
tionships between family mem
berss and with neighbors,” Miss
McAlpine said. |
Now that peace is here, and the
farm labor and farm equipment
situations are improving, more
strass should be put on life and
relationships in the family and'
community, the Extension Serv-i
ice specialist asserted.
“When you get your family
together to plan your 1946 farm
and home activities, don’t over
look any opportunities for devel
oping bester -family life during
the vear,” she cautioned. “The
family life phase may not show
any possibilities as far as actual
cash incomes is concerned, but it
will pay big dividends in happi
ness and better family living. |
“The unity of family life needs
to be strengthened and character\
educatign needs to be emphasiz
ed,” Miss McAlpine declared..
“Geetting a group of people, such
as the family, together and pool
ing their ideas and experiences'
concerning everyday matters
helps both the group and the in-‘
dividual members. The family
members gain courage, help and
inspiration for meeting their
everyday problems and can call
on other members of the groun
for help in meeting big or unus
ual problems.”
Any family will become a bet
ter and happier family as the
family members understand each
other bettér, work and play to

gether and share their income
fairly, she said. The Extension
Service specialist suggested that
in planning the family’s program
for 1946, all activities, including
farm and homework, home dem
onstration club and 4-H club ac
tivities, » be. developed with a
family approach.
“Georgia farm and rural fami
lies can develop richer living
through community recreation
and other community activities
by becoming more ‘community
conscious’ and thinking beyond
their own immediate homes and
families,” Miss McAlpine added.
Plan Sweet Pofato
Enferprises Now,
Specialist Urges
Georgia farmers and 4-H club
members should be planning their
1946 sweet potato enterprises
now, W. C. Carter, sweet potato
specialist of the Agricultural Ex
tension Service, declared today,
pointing out that there is only a
short time, especially .-in the
South Georgia area, before the
potatoes should be bedded.
“Sweet potato growers who ex
pect to buy seed stock should be
making their arrangements now,’
Carter said. “Indications, are that
good, disease-free seed sweet po
tatoes will be scarce at bedding
time.” » :
This month is a good time “to
begin construction or' repair and
renewal of the fire-heated or
electric type beds to be used in
growing. the plants, according to
the «sweet 'potato specialist.
Equipment needed for the elec
trical beds should be ordered im
mediately, since;delivery of this
equipment may ‘be slow. Mate
rials for the . flue-heated bed
should be assembled as soon as
possiblé so that work can get un
derway without delay. i
“If an old bed is to be used,
it’s a good idea to get started re
newing it now,” Carter explain
ed. “All old dirt should be re
moved and the bed, framework
and the surrounding area should
be drenched with a formaldehyde
solution. Mix the sclution by us
ing one pint of formaldehyde in
15 gallons of water and use a
sprinkling can in drenching the
bed and the area. Allow the bed
to air at least a few days after
disinfecting.”
Manure is not recommended as
a source of heat in sweet potato
hotbeds, the Extension Service
worker pointed out. Use of ma
nure as a heat source is liable to
cause or spread disease in the
bed. More sweet potato plants can
be obtained ‘per bushel of seed
bedded if the electric or fire
heated type of bed is used and
is properly managed.
The Georgia Exiension .Service
Bulletin No. 482, Growing and
Marketing Sweet Potatoes, gives
information on all phases of the
sweet potato entérprise. Copies of
this bulletin and detailed .draw=
ings and instructions sfor con
struction of both = electric and
fire-heated hotbeds may be ob
tained from county agricultutral
agents or by writing'the Exten
sion Service in Athens. g s

Thorn thumbed a ride to La
