WINDER AND BARROW COUNTY LAND
OWNERS CONSIDER GROWING PEACHES
IT IS PROPOSED TO HAVE EACH
GROWER TO PT OUT 5,000 TREES
OR MORE.
35 ACRES TO
EACH GROWER
Would He Paying Proposition and Give
Money Crop in Dull Season of
the Year.
QUITE a number of our best farmers
and business men are considering
putting out peach orchards this fall to
-help change from the one crop system
and to offset the ravages of the boll
weevil on the cotton crop. The plan
suggested is to put out not less than
30,000 trees of the commercial varie
ties, which will be enough to interest
peach buyers, and will also warrant the
Individual growers joining the Georgia
Fruit Exchange, which is now hand
ling most of Georgia's peach crop. The
'Georgia Fruit Exchange is mads up en
tirely of Georgia peach growers, and
has its headquarters at Macon near the
center of the peach section with local
representatives in the peach sections.
It is proposed to have each grower
here put out as nearly 5,000 trees each
as possible. These would cover about
35 acres, and would he as small an
amount as could he cared for econom
ically.
Those interested., include H. A. Ca-
Fithers, IV. M. Hoi sen beck. Dr. L. IV.
Hodges, Dr. IV. L. DeLaPerriere, E.
ftl. Arnold. J. IV. Shields. IV. E. Young,
Brunelle Smith, A. A. Camp, John M.
Williams, Flanigan & Flanigan, li. H.
Kimball, IV. I?. Met'ants and others.
If this industry is developed as it
has been in other sections it should be
a paying proposition, and would give
us a money crop in what is now the
dull season of the year, causing trade
and business to be more stabilized dur
fing the year round.

Mr. Henry F. Branham,
State Dairy Inspector of
Georgia, Visits Winder
Mr. Henry F. Branham, State Dairy
Inspector of Georgia, visited Winder
for the purpose of inspecting dairies
and all other places producing milk
which is sold or exposed for sale, not
only in Winder, but in tlit* state of
Georgia.
He informed mo that all individuals
who sell or expose for sale milk in the
state of Georgia are subject to all state
laws And regulations governing tlie
dairies, creameries, etc., of Georgia.
He has only started his inspection at
Winder, and if you are not in shape
to iu'. et him you had better get ready,
for lie is coming again. Don’t let him
catch you napping as he did some on
this visit to Winder, and put you on
probation or under other restrictions.
Now, Mr. Milk Consumer, if you will
ask your milk man to show you his of
ficial score card from the State Dairy
Inspector, he has it or should have it,
you can answer some questions your
self.
Whose milk buckets and strainers
did he find in the dirty lot on the ma
nure spreader airing themselves?
They were not mine. I was milking
in my buckets and my strainer was
in the milk house under screens where
they all stay when not in use. Did he
catch me milking? Yes, Sunday after
noon. What did I do? 1 invited him in.
He said : “Go to it, boy! Everything
'is clean and you are doing it right.”
He came again Monday, went over
the entire place, and gave me advice
'as to some building improvements I
'intend to make. Before leaving, he
gave me a clean bill of health, without
; any restrictions.
, My score card, bearing his official
signautre. shows a perfect mark in care
/of barn, cleanliness in milking, and care
fof milk house. It may he examined at
my dairy at any time.
The inspector expressed himself as
satisfied with the sanitary conditions
of my premises and pronounced my
milk good.
In ten month’s business I have not
missed a delivery, and am now better
'prepared than ever to give good ser
vice. I am not running a summer
time dairy. By fall I will have six
teen more cows fresh in milk. The
i milk I produce is second to none. I
sell at market price.
It is my aim to build up in Winder a
dairy unsurpassed by any. I shall de
velop and expand my business in keep
ing with the progress of our city,
i Now. friends, rally ’round ! Give me
•your trade and see her grow!

home and has furnished to the country
many noble children. Mi'. Loy Ethridge

“A SINNER!’WRITES
ABOUT UNWELCOME
SERVICE AT CHURCH
i
Dear readers of the News:
I We had the pleasure of attending an
unwelcome service at the First Bap
tist church on last Sunday night. The
j occasion was in honor of the departure
of Rev. W. H. Faust from ministerial
work in this section. It had been her
i aided far and wide, of his going, and
many people met on this occasion to
see, he seen and heard. Some met ill
love and respect while some, I fear,
came out of mere curiosity.
Now, 1 discovered ere I left that
many classes and clans of religious
movements as well as social ones were
on hand and prepared to say the nice
things as well as flattering which was
appropriate and in decency and order.
Each and every church had its rep
! resentative. The school, the Wom
en's clubs, the city of Winder and Bar-
J row county and the Appalnelioe asso
ciation all came in with nice words,
well chosen and appropriate.
But there was one element, and that
a predominating one, with which Bro.
Faust lias had much to say was not
permitted to be placed upon this pro
gram. Now, ir was probably a mistake
or perhaps no one would consent to
1 represent this powerful elan. Maybe,
they thought this clan would not sneak
into fio sacred a place upon so serious
lan occasion. That's where ttiey all
went wrong, for this class was there
! with ears and eyes well open and an
eloquent and fluent speaker who often
exhibits his powers upon the street
corners to the tickling of the ears of
casual passers-by. Some would laugh
at Ids arrogance while others would
! smile at his Ignorance.
They call this class leader or fore
man, the ‘‘Great Mogul,” for he fears
not to handle in no kind way the
preacher, his nets, his sermons or any
thing in which lie is interested.
In speaking to his followers, he says:
“The preacher is a hypocrite,” but deep
down in his inmost soul he knows that
he is telling a falsehood. He says that
the preacher is telling an imaginary
tale when he Iras evidence convincing
that the preacher is telling the Bible
truth. He says that the preacher is
working for pay only, hut at the same
j time he sees him walking or riding on
j errands where he knew there was no
hope for pay.
This Great Mogul would have said
could he have had the opportunity:
“When we saw the preacher coming
we hid our bottle and cards, changed
: our curs • words to more modern lingo
and cut short our blackguarding or our
smutty yarns until he passed by. Our
clan questioned, liis inconsistency, re
alizing at the same time that incon
sistency is our chief charm. We said he
labored on the Sabbath for gain in his
travels and exertions when w'e knew we
were wasting our time over a cheap
novel, or dally news or a game of any
kind for winnings.”
“Summing it all up, I, the Great Mo
gul, and chief of sinners say we re
spect the preacher though we cannot
get the courage to take a stand as ho
he would have us take.”
