Farm Products Bring
ing Higher Prices
Atlanta. Ga., OcL 11.—Wheat, cat
tle, dairy products and a Ion*? list of
grains, now are bringing prices to the
producers at the farm gates which
are from one to 82 per cent higher
than the aperage return during the
pre-war period of 1910-14, according
to an official study by the state de
partment of agriculture.
Farmers now are prepared to mar
ket their products efenly with a close
eye to the demand instead of being
forced to throw them on the market
at times when the demand is low
This will tend to keep prices more
stable for the producer, agricultural
department officials say.

BIG INCREASE IN THE
POULTRY BUSINESS
Han Assumed Large Proportion
In Georgia and Many Other
Southern States
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 11.—The poultry
business has assumed large propor
tions in Georgia, Alabama, and other
Southern states and each month is
showing an increase, according to
the produce merchants.
A handful of mongrel chickens in a
back yard will never make on egg
farm, hut the poultryman who s-e
cures pure bred layers , and will test
these out, keeping only these which
test 300 eggs a year, will And that
the poultry game, as a bread and but
ter maker, is better than gold min
ing in California. It is declared by
experts that no where in the country
will be found better conditions for
poultry raining than right here in
Georgia. This is the opinion of men
who have made a study of poultry.
There is an excellent market al
ways for eggs in Atlanta, Birming
ham, Macon, Jacksonville, Savannah,
and other points within a few hours
shipping distnace from any point in
Georgia, it is stated. This constant
demand, both summer and winter, it
is pointed out by agriculturalists,
should encourage Georgia farmers to
give more attention to the poultry
business.
About two years ago H. L. A Iso
brook, agricultural development ag
ent for the A., B. & A. Ry., began
to encourage the raising of white leg
horn chickens in and around Ashland,
Clay county, Alabama. Mr. Also-
brook met with great success in hav
ing the farmers raise pure bred White
Leghorns. Here are the results as
reported here:
There are now 25 farmers at Ash
land who are shipping eggs co-oper
atively. These farmers have 0,1)00
hens, and they have proved to be
money makers. Trice Riddle, who
has 420 hens, has made such a suc
cess of poultry that he now puts it
ahead of all other work on his farm.
J. L. Ingram, another prominent and
well known farmer, who has 450
hens, says: “I like the poultry so
well that I intend to stick to it.”
Ashland formers ship eggs daily by
express and the eggs reach the mar
ket only one day old, and they bring
a premium of at least 10 cents a doz
en. The prevailing rate received has
been from 35 cents to 42 cents a daz-
en.
Agriculturists, in reports to the
state agricultural department, show
that farmers in Georgi aand Alaba
ma particlarly are shipping eggs in
large qunntitos, and have receiver
large profits. It is further stated
that the Southern states, as a whole,
still import carload upon carload of
eygs and poultry throughout the en
tire year, which might be consider
ably lessened if more farmers in the
immediate territory would enter the
poultry business.
“A mild climate, an abundance of
green reed, easily obtained, and a
steady demand for both chickens and
eggs, niear.g success to anyone who
gives the right attention to the poul
try business,” says Mr. Alsobrooki
“A good hen lays in a year four to
six times her weight in eggs. It
takes a strong living machine to
stand the strain of such an output.
Every hen, young and old, lays in the
spring. An old hen may draw her
rationsthree times a day through the
winter and not lay an egg, but when
the leaves begin to come out, the
green stars, the air becomes soft and
warm, and the sunshine genial, that
; old hens ays every day. Spring con-
j ditions force hens to ay. Furnish
spring conditions for nine to twelve
I months in the year and if you keep
| the right kind of hens, taking proper
j care of them, they will lay in Geor
gia the year round.”

SECRET BALLOT MAY
BE ADOPTED SOON
Australian System Will Be Used
In Seven Georgia Counties
In the Primary
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 11.—The Aus-
tralian ballot system will be used in
some counties on the senatorial pri
mary October 17, as it was in the
gubernatorial primary of September
13th, according to state politicians,
and they predict that before many
more elections all the counties W’ill
put it in operation.
It must not be forgotten, political
observers point out, that the Austral
ian ballot was one of the old-time
Populist planks that the Democrats
opposed. Now both Democrats and
Republicans in Georgia favor the
Australian ballot with practical un
animity.
Two successive grand jury recom
mendations are required to put the
Australian ballot system into opera
tion. Then, when a sufficient number
of courties have adopted it, many of
the politicians claim, the law should
be amended so as to make it manda
tory on the minority of counties in
order that the state, it is claimed,
by a reasonable, gradual process, may
soon have a clean, dignified, safe un
iform ballot system whiuh will per
mit ,to quote one politician, “decent
men and women to go to the polls
without fear of the frequent nuisance
and indeciensies which have been ex
perienced under the present loose
methods.”
