THURSDAY, AUGUST 4. 1921. Grazing Crops for Hogs If the farmers of Harrow county are to raise more bogs, they need to grow grazing crops. One or two hogs can tie raised cheaply by each family from the kitchen slops and some corn but if a half jozen or more are grown, some kind of cheap feed must la* had to sub stitute for the slops. Grazing crops will do this to a large extent. They will also tend to keep the hogs healthier. The first requirement in grazing hogs in this section is to have a permanent pasture where good water can be had at all times with little trouble. This should have bermuda grass and lespe deza on the uplands and Dallis grass and white clover on the bottom lands. During the summer there will always he plenty of grazing in the pasture hut the spring and fall when the weather is dry, the grazing will Ik* short. At these times a gfwwl grazing crop next to the pasture is needed. If one is to he supplied, a field will have to be fenced so the bogs can lie turned In when the crop is ready. The grazing crops suited to our con ditions are as follows: For Spring Grazing. RYE:—The best crop for poor lands. OATS : —Good for medium rich lands. Makes pigs grow fine. WHEAT:—Suited to rich lands. For fattening in the spring. BARLEY':—Suited to rich lands. For fattening in the spring. RAPE: —Excellent* on rich land when the winter is mild. BUR CLOVER: —Adapted to rich lands. When once started and grazed carefully it will last for a number of yea rs. ALFALFA:—OnIy ft>r the richest lands. Good for summer and fall also. For Fall Grazing Lands. PEAS: —Best for poor lands, very dependable. SOY BEANS:—Make more than peas on good land. CORN:—Should he grown with peas or soy fieans. SWEET POTATOES: —Good on san dy land. Corn needs to be fed when the hogs are grazing the potatoes. PEANUTS: —Can be grown on the sandiest lands, but the meat and lard will not U* firm like that from corn fed hogs. The simplest plan for having graz ing crops is to fence in with hog wire a small Held next to the pasture and every year grow a crop for spring graz ing and as soon as this is eaten down put in a crop for fall grazing. On poor land rye should he the best spring crop and j>eas the best fall crop to grow after it. On better lands, oats could be substituted for the rye and soy beans for the peas. Bur clover in the spring and soy beans in the fall will require but one plowing during the year and will furnish rich grazing all the spring and fall. A better plan would be to have two lots and to graze one while the other is resting. By doing this more graz ing can be had from the same tield. The amount of land needed in graz ing crops will depend on its richness and the size of the hogs. A general rule would be to allow two acres of grazing crops for each sow and pigs. This amount of land should furnish most <>£ the feed during the spring and largely fatten the pigs in the fall. Very truly yours, A. I>. ltobertsoh, Agent. CORINTH NEWS I)r.

Editor News: Here I come again. Ceutralhafchie is a nice "burg” seven miles south of Roopville in Heard county. It is just about as far from a railroad as you can get in Georgia, the closest point being eighteen miles away. I tind here two comfortable church buildings, school building, four or five nice country stores and a number of good dwellings. I am holding in the Baptist c bnrch and have a class of good, honest coun try hoys and girls, with many daddies and mammies, altogether numbering more than a hundred. As the Dutch man would say, ‘‘How high ish dot?” 1 am expecting great things here for much interest is noticeable. We will not likely turn out any Mendelssohns. Kaaffs or Beethovens, hut I see as great possibilities here as any place I recall. A great big country is a fine place to raise boys and girls who are physically arid mentally able to develop into strong men and women. How sad it is that so many make the fnistake of leaving the country for town. I find crops good where rain has fallen, but in many places they are suf fering for moisture. It is extremely hot and dry here. The boll weevil is not cutting much figure here, less is being said about him than any place 1 have been. lam afraid people will for get the little pest and will never decide whether he is a blessing or a curse.

Vacations While you are on that camping or fish ing trip, have your watch overhauled. It will last longer, and run more accu rately if it is cleaned and oiled once every year or so. If it is in our care, you run no risk of losing or damaging it. B. E. PATRICK 403 Winder Nat. Bank Building WINDER, GA. THE WINDER NEWS CAMP WINDER By Sarah Joe Roberts. I know the little town has been real lonesome Since forty girls have been away at camp, And we’ve all had a wonderful time. Altho’ it rained and everything was damp. One cottage and two big tents < *n top of the steepest hili, You wonder how we passed the time, Well, every minute was filled. Saturday we hiked to Helen, It’s just a mile and a half, And on the way you’d hear a joke, And next a hearty laugh. At eleven and four we went in the river Almost every girl learned to swim; Big Broome was the life saver And, of course, we depended on him. Mrs. Roberts crawled out of bed at night, To see who had the pain; And if someone talked in her sleep, She just crawled out again. On Sunday we all went to church, Walking was the best we could do, Mr. Collins said it was a mile, But, Gee! It seemed like two. On Tuesday we hiked to Yonab, And went to the very top, As the mountain was very steep, We made a few little stops. And every day we sang this tune, “Tain’t gonter rain no more,” But it didn’t seem to do much good; ’Cause every day it poured. Saturday night was stunt night For the B. O. B’s. (Bunch of Bums) Now when you look into their tent, Don’t mistake it for the slums. Monday night was stunt night For the “Happy Klan, and “Dewdrop Inn,” We had the cutest circus, That’s where the fun begins. And ’though it’s been only a week, The days have seemed so long, Since we gathered ’round the camp fire, And sang our good old song: “Here at Yonah, at Camp Winder, Ain’t we got fun, Things are gay and getting gayer, Ain’t we got fun, There’s nothing finer than dear old “Camp Winder,” In the water, and by the camp fire, Ain’t we got fun.” THE HANCOCK GRAVEYARD. All parties interested in the Han cock graveyard near Hancock's bridge over the Mulberry river, are requested to meet thre on next Saturday, Au gust 6tli, for the purpose of cleaning off same.
