BUSH RECOVERS STOLEN BUM CAR The Ruick ear of Dr. W. L. Bush, .which was stolen about two months ago. lias been recovered, thanks to the splendid service of the Ruick Compa ny.

Sunday ut tLiP u,-im!. hour^ Winder, Barrow County, Georgia, "Thursday, November 10, 1921. OFF FOR NORTH GA. M. E CONFERENCE. The North Georgia Conference con venes this in Augusta. In addi tion to Rev. L. W. Collins, the pastor, the Winder church has two accredit ed delegates, Mr. L. S. Radford elect ed by the District conference, and Mr. A. A. Camp recently appointed treas urer of the Board of Finance. These representatives left Tuesday to attend the conference. Program For Farming Operations Outlined. The farmers of this section will be interested in plans for next year, and The Winder News, always anxious to be of service to its patrons, gives some of ilii* plans that have been worked out by fanners over in South Carolina, which is in about the same latitude as Winder and Barrow county. Cotton production in this Piedmont section is safer than in the lower sec tions and will continue to he profita able in average years, provided due ran* is exercised in meeting weevil conditions. The acreage idiould he strictly limited to an amount which can be perfectly handled by tin* available labor. Ample foodstuffs. including corn. peas, velvet beans, potatoes, sor ghum wheat, oats, etc, should be grown. A suggested division of acre age for a 30 acre farm lias been made by one of the most successful planters in the Piedmont region and may he found useful, although it should lie modified to meet individual needs. Ten acres in cotton, six acres in corn with peas or velvet beans, eight acres in wheat and oats, followed liy pea vine hay and Lookout Mountain potatoes one acre in sweet potatoes, two acres in alfalfa, three acres in sorghum, tor tal 30 acres. *,.n ample number of hogs and a few cattle should be carried on this farm and for these a permanent bermuda pasture should lie provided. In order to light the boll weevil, all cotton stalks should be destroyed— turned under- —as soon as the cotton is gathered and before the hatchings of new weevils in the late fall. Lv iv farmer should do this, as it does not do much good for a few to do this work while their neighbors let the wee vils hatch out. During tlie fall and winter destroy ail cover in which weevils may lie hid ing. burning ditch banks and margins of woods and cleaning up around stumps. Fodder and hay stacks should not la* allowed to remain near cotton fields. Cotton should he liberally fertilized with a quick acting fertilizer contain ing about 50 pounds of available phos phoric acid per acre. Where the weed grows tall only a small amount of ammonia should he used as it always delays maturity. Early planting of approved varieties of eotton with plenty of seed. The far mer should save three bushels per acre for seed, planting two bushels per acre by April lth, in this section of the state. The other bushel should lit* re served for replanting purposes. Cmler boll weevil conditions the lies! crops lire made from early plantings. Cotton should be left thick in the drills. The distance should vary with the heighth of the natural growth of tiie plant, three inches or four indies n and being too close as a minimum and eight or tell inches as a maximum. The question of poisoning for boll weevils is still ill the experiment state but it is believed that poisoning with calcium arsenate helps some, espe cially if done at the proper time un der favorable conditions. Everywhere every farmer and tenant should raise an abundant supply of food stuff, and this foodstuff Is* prop erly conserved. The man with a crib full of com and hay, a smoke house full of incut and molasses, a hundred bushels of sweet potatoes in a storage house, and a garden full of vegetables, with plenty of milk and butter cannot !.<• put out of business by the boll wee vil **r any other pest.
