A TRIP DOWN IN MORGANCOUNTY • • • YE editor of the News and family made made a visit to relatives in Buckhead, Morgan county, last Sunday. The people in that ‘section are i munch better spirits this year than for the past two years. They have gone to work to pill themselves out of the depressed state in which tlie boll weevil lias thrown them. Many negroes have left that countv and on this account some farms will not lie worked this year. But this is true of all the counties in this section of the state. The sawmill business in Mor gan is booming and many peonle are making a living out of this business. We found the roads from Winder to Madison in good condition, but from Madison to Buckhcal they were in bad shape. It strikes us that this road is a very important one and the coynt.v authorities ought to keep it in better shape. We spent a very pleasant day visit ing relatives in that part of Morgan county. These occasional trios to lov ed ones add a whole lot to the pleasure of living. AUBURN. Tilt* faculty and students of S. C c. enjoyed a picnic at Stone Mountain last Monday.

A CREAMERY FOR WINDER THE \Vi n der News is in position to state that Winder can have a j T.tamery at once if the farmers of this •section will-supply it with milk in suf ficient quantities to keep if running on full time. This is a splendid opportu nity for our people to establish in their midst an enterprise that will fur nish them a realy market for nil the milk we can produce. The dairy cow can make this county independent if we will only go into the business in dead earnest. A creamery in Winder means ready money to our farmers all the year round. It means we can become Independent of the boll weevil. It means finer cd.vs and bet ter farming. It means richer lands. It means prosperity. One of Winder’s citizens is ready to build the creamery if hi* can get tin* co-operation of the farmers in supplying him tin* milk. We must not let this opportunity pass. We must have tin* creamery. Steps will IV taken in a few days to see how much milk can be supplied by the farmers of this section. Get ready at once to state how much milk you can furnish. This is an opportunity where it will take co-operation to put tlie enterprise over, hut it will menu t'rosju rity to everybody that goes into it. The lands of this section are ideal for dairying and stock raising. This is an opportunity to go into the Imsi ess that will put us on the road to permanent prosperity. Every farmer in the county ought to keep several cows on his farm. He can still make some cotton if he wants to do so, but a creamery in Winder will give him an opportunity to utilize his pastures and turn lii.s attention to milk cows and the raising of food for them. Let everybody become interested in the building of a creamery in Winder. MEMORIAL DAY AT MT.
