Bainbridge, - Georgia, Veterinarians Needed For Georgiy Livestock Industry Worth $100,000,000 Requires Protection ANDREW M. SOULE, President Geor- gia State College Of Agriculture The aggregate of our live stock in terests is not generally appreciated for the animals now owned on Georgia fajms are easily worth $100,000,000. In 1910 the state was credited in the federal census with owning about $78,- 000,000 worth of live stock. Within a period of six years, therefore, there has been an increase in the value of live stock of approximately $22,000,000, and this in the face of the fact that the shipment of a very considerable number of mules to Europe on ac count of the war conditions prevailing there has tended to reduce not only the number but the value of our ani mals as well. At the present time there are only about fifty licensed vet erinarians practicing in the state of Georgia. Most of these live in towns and cities, and there are many farmers in the state who are more than one hundred miles from a competent vet erinarian; and even if they could se cure his services in time, it would be at an almost prohibitive cost. It may thus he said with propriety that farm ers living out in the open country would lind it extremely difficult to se cure the aid of a competent veterina rian, and that this condition is not likely to he remedied until provision is made for the training of a very consid erable number of men in the underly ing principles of veterinary medicine. That some provision for instruction of this character should he made is evidenced by the very considerable number of applications received from young men who desire to study veter inary medicine. In view of this fact, the trustees of the Georgia State Col lege of Agriculture have endeavored to meet the situation by authorizing the establishment of the first two years of a degree course in veterinary medicine. This will be open to any young man in Georgia seventeen years of age and who is able to present four teen units £pr entrance. It is the earn est hope of the trustees that at the end of two years through the aid of the state they may be able to add the junior work of training veterina rians within the state who are ac quainted with local conditions, in sym pathy with the people living in the open country, and who naturally be lieve in Georgia and its future possi bilities along live stock production. Co-Operation In Buying Farm Machinery L. C. HART, Professor Of Agr. Engi neering, Ga. State College Of Agr. Many farmers of Georgia will never be able to participate in the benefits of some lines of farm machinery until such machines have been purchased co-operatively. For one farmer to buy all of them would tie up too much cap ital. It would not pay. But for sev eral farmers to buy and get use of such machinery, good profits will fol low. The purchase of threshing machin ery, farm tractors, harvesting ma chines, silo fillers, corn shredders, etc., may be instanced. Special ef fort Is to be made by Agricultural En gineering department ot the College to get farmers in communities to pur chase farm machinery In this way. Selecting A Location For An Orchard J. W. FIROR, Field Aflt. Horticulture, Ga. State College Of Agriculture Many people are preparing to plant peach and apple orchards. At plant ing time, the location of the orchard is not always given the consideration that it merits. At marketing time lo cation is very, very important. How well is the orchard located with refer ence to railroad facilities? How far from the loading station? What sort of roads must he used to haul over? These are the questions the orehard- ists should answer before planting. A large peach grower who was only two miles from the loading station, found, during a rainy season, that the job of hauling the peaches from Ms packing shed to the cars was tremen dous. After the first few loads, the roads became very badly cut up, later they became almost impassable. There are very few places where conditions make it advisable to plant a peach orchard over three miles from the loading point. Apple orchards are suited to more distant planting, but usually four miles is the limit. As long as there is an abundance of suitable land near the railroads, use it. The difference in price is very seldom sufficient to Justify the differ ence in cost of hauling. Yet, the ac tual cost of hauling does not tell the whole tale. Cars move away from the depot according to freight sched ules and also come into the depot in the same way. The orchard closest has an advantage in getting his fruit moved quickly, and this is of spe cial importance with peaches. MANY SILOS BEING BUILT IN GEORGIA The largest number of silos ever j built in any one year in Geoiyia are being built this year. The College of Agriculture has directed in the con struction of several hundred through its specialists and county agents. SOUTHWEST GEORGIA Donalsonville Georgia.
