PROGRESS MADE IN CLOVER CROPS
_ Members of the Winterville Veteran Farm Training
Class are putting into practice methods which have
been learned-in class. Shown in top picture are five
members specting Ladino Clover and KY-31 Fescue,
which is used for grazing on the dairy farm of H. E.,
Shannon and Andrew Wood. The members, left to
right (standing) : M. A, McCarty, Leonard Gabriel, W.
D. Gilmer; (kneeling) Shannon Wood and James O.

Vet Farm Trai
el Farm lrainees
. ;
Progress Rapidly
Members of the Winterville Veteran Farm Training
Class attend classes for several times a week and then put
into practice on their farms what is learned in classroom
work.
The veterans work under super
vision on their farms for several
hours per week besides the many
other hours of work they put in.
Teaching the class and supervis
ing each trainee’s on-the-farm
work some time every week is M.
A. McCarty.
Members of the class recently
visited the Georgia Experiment
Station at Experiment, Ga. and
saw methods used there for good
production. Also many are taking
part in corn contests,
The use of Ladino Clover and
Kentucky 31 Fescue on dairy
farms and for feeding hogs has
many advantages, it has been dis
covered by the class members.
Thirty-five head of cattle on
the dairy farm of H. E.- Shannon,
and Andrew Wood near Winter
ville grazed on a ten-acre field of
Ladino Clover and Ky.-31 Fescue
for 90 days, and the Woods think
“it is mighty good” and believe it
“will be the answer to the graz
ing problem in this section.” They
plan to seed another ten-acre
field this fall. 3
W. D. Gilmer, who owns a 75
acre farm near Winterville, uses
Ladino Clover to feed his Duroc
Jersey Hogs. He says the use of
Clover *“cuts the amount of other
feed necessary for the hogs in
half.” Mr. Gilmer added, “Ladino
Clover is the best thing I have
ever had for hogs.” Mr. Gilmer
grows a number of crops on his
farm. ! 5 .
~ Other members of the class
grow various crops and raise live
stock and are very successful.

Announlement was made yes
terday by Dr. T. F. Sellers, direc
tor of Georgia Department of
Public Health, that the Athens-
Clarke County Health Center,
which will cost $100,950, has re
ceived full authorization.
Because of a state appropria
tion of $3,000,000 for the hospital
program, the State Department of
Health has been able to allocate
state and federal funds to assist
in the construction of additional
hospitals and health centers in a
number of cities of the state, Dr.
Sellers said. ;
The U. S. Public Health Serv
ice has approved the Project Con
struction Applications for Fed
eral participation in projects in
Cedartown, Pearson, Watkinsville
(Oconee County Health Center—
s36,ooo authorized), Barnesville,
Athens, Hamilton, Irwinton, But
ler, Statesboro, Griffin, Thomas~
ville and Elberton. In addition
hospitali proiecls have been ap
proved in Atlanta, Baxley, Anrer
icus, Swainsboro and Jesup.
Dr. Sellers stated that 87 per
cent of state and federal appro
priations are going into the con
struction of hospitals and 12%
percent is being used for con
struction of health centers.
Initial work to secure the Cen
ter here was started by Mayor
Jack Wells.
Mayvor and City Council and
Clarke County Commissioners,
several months ago, voted to par
ticipate in the program whereby
local, state, and federal govewg
ments pay one-third of the cost
each for construction of the Pub
lic Health Center. State approval
came almost immediately, and on
Friday notification was received
by city and county officials that
federal health officials have ap
