IS YOUR PASTURE
GOOD ENOUGH?
Does your pasture furnish enough
grazing t|r your stock from early
up ring until late fall, or <ln s it fail
lor a time in the spring and the full?
t'an it '>■ improved without too much
trouble and expense? What grasses
and clovers are best?
To nnswe ■ these questions intelli
sontlv, it will lie well to review the
problem of permanent pastures for
Georgia The natuia. pasture lands of
this section are low, moist lands. The
reason for this is low land is more cer
tain during the spring and fall than
high land. Low land should therefore
Is* the basis of a pasture. The seepy
places between hills and the bottoms
along creeks and branches are the
places suited for pastures. If these
places have not been Included in the
pasture, they should tie taken in where
it is possible to do so.
Another tiling about pastures is tlmt
poor lands make poor pastures. Quite
often the poorest lands on the place
are wired in and turned into pastures
but the amount of grazing from these
places is always very small. When a
good yield is expected from a pasture
the land should lie good land.
Tin* best grasses and clovers found
in Georgia pastures are lespedeza or
wild summer clover and bermuda grass
for the hills; and Dallis grass, red top
and white clover for t,.e bottom lands.
Ld.spedeza comes in naturally after
several years, hut much more quickly
by seeding about ten pounds per acre
during tin* spring. Dallis grass conies
from seed sown in the spring on hard
land and red top and white clover
from seed sown in the fall.
Lespedeza is valuable in mid-sum
mer. At this time of the year it is
growing well. During most of the
spring it is too small for grazing, and
during the fall it matures early. While
it lasts it is one of the most valuable
pasture crops we have.
Bermuda grass i* well known and
valued for Its grazing, its ability to
stand drought and Its long life as ft
grazing plant.
Dallis grass Is new to many people
It is a bunchy, big leaved grass ear
lier In the spring and later in the fall
than bermhda and growing only on low
land or rich upland. <>n the low land
It will do better than bermuda when
once started. The seed seem to like
hard land but are slow in developing
where there is already a good stand of
other grasses. Four or live pounds
per acre will give a good start of this
g rass and it will gradually spread over
the lands suited to it.
Red top or Herds grass likes wet
lands. It comes from very tine seed
that are not expensive. Two to live
pounds per acre sown in the early fall
will give a good start of this grass. It
should bo sofn on damp or wet lands
only. It gives very early grazing.
White clover is an early pasture
plant that will grow on most
damp lands after they are well inocu
lated. A pound or more of seed per
acre will get it started and where well
adapted it will spread over the land.
These live are the plants that do best
in the permanent pasture of the average
farm. There are others, as bur clover,
vetch and orchard grass that can he
used but they do better in a special
patch than in the main pasture. Now
is the time to begin thinking about im
proving pastures or building new ones,
rail on me for other Information along
this line.
Yours very truly,
A. 1). ROBERTSON,
County Agent.

“Jabbo” Goes to Church
Dear Mr. Editor:
I went to church yesterday
And going into church when I got there
Was one of Winder’s society ladies
And I am telling you the truth
When I say that it was a lovely dress
She was wearing
And that it was not more than
Three inches below her knees.
And now, Mr. Editor
What 1 am saying is
That 1 don’t mind them being short
(For 1 rather like ’em tat way)
Jf the other man’s wife is wearing them,
But when I went home
And told my wife what I saw
She said:
“Why that woman just
Raved the other day about the way
Some women in Winder are wearing
Their AWFUL short dresses.”
So there you are, Mr. Editor!
And if you print this
As I hope you do
I hope that woman will read it
Rut then you know she wont know
That is is meant for her;
For we don’t have the gift of seeing
Ourselves as others see us.
That’s what gets my goat!
Yours truly,
Jabbo.

“I am in good health for the first
time in thirty years and I give Tanlac*
the entire credit,” said Professor C. J.
Budlong, well known and highly re
spected citizen of Manchester, N. H„
living at 42 School street,
“From the time I was a hoy I could
not sit down and eat a meal without
being in misery afterwards from indi
gestion. During all these years I was
afflicted with rheumatism, too. It was
all over my body, but especially bad in
my feet and legs and at times I could
not get from my bed to my chair with
out help. I, was almost a -nervous
wreck from all these years of suffering
and could not half do my work. I
hoped for nothing more than tempor
ary benejit from Tanlac, as I believed
it impossible for any medicine to give
me entire relief, but this is exactly
what Tanlac has done.
“For the first time since I can re
member I eat anything I want and di
gest it without trouble. I haven’t an
ache or a pain and have put on eight
teen pounds in weight. I just feel good
all over and enjoy life as I never did
before. Having put Tanlac to the test
I do not hesitate to say that it is the
greatest medicine of the age for stom
ach trouble and rheumatism.”
Tanlac is sold in Winder by G. W.
DeLaPerriere & Sons and all leading
druggists everywhere.
