FARMERS CAN GET
SEED LOANS SOON
STATE SUPERVISOR POINTS
OUT CROP MORTGAGE ONLY
SECURITY NEEDED. BLANKS
READY IN FEW DAYS.
Macon, Ga.—Loans to Georgia
farmers for purchases of seed, feed
and fertilizer, with first liens on
crops as the only security, will 'be
available probably within the next
ten days, W. W. Larsen, state super
visor oi the service, announced nere
Saturday.
The maximum amount to be loan
ed any one farmer is $250, except in
special cases, Mr. Larsen said, and
the interest rate is 5 l /z per cent. This
year there is no limitation on the
amount that shall be loaned to ten
ants of any one landlord.
Neariy 64,000 Georgia farmers
borrowed a total of over $5,500,000
from the government last year in
seed loans and to date have repaid
virtually 98 per cent.
Mr. Larsen said Georgia probably
has the best record in this respect of
any state in the union. About 40
per cent of the 1933 borrowers in
this state were negroes, he said.
Machinery for handling the loans
already has 'been set up and will be
gin functioning as soon as necessary
blanks are received from Washing
ton. There will be 10 district super
visors in the, state, with 35 field su
pervisors under them. In each coun
ty there will be a committee of at
least three members to pass on each
application.
Fees for recording and other ex
penses must not exceed $1 for each
loan, Mr. Larsen explained.
Applicants for these loans must be
able to show that they are unable to
obtain a loan for the purpose from
any other source.
Most Nobel prizes have been won
by Germans.
Don’t Trifle With Coughs
Don’t let them get a strangle hold. Fight

on*the spot if your cough or cold, is not
relieved by Creomulsion. (adv.)

WHEN folks gather around to
look at the new Plymouth,
you hear, ‘.‘lt’s certainly the most
car for the money!”
Plymouth’s all of that ... in style,
in power, in safety and in big-car
roominess. But this year —biggest of
all in Plymouth’s 1934 story is the

Sunday School Lesson
(By Rev. Charles E. Dunn)
Jesus’ Testimony Concerning Himself
Lesson for March 4th. Matt. 11
and 12.
Golden Text: Matt. 11:28.
Our lesson reaches its climax in
the glorious invitation at the end of
chapter 11. What comfort this
brings to a distracted, disheartened
world! There is no music like the
music of the gospel, and nowhere
does that music sound with a sweet
er, more wooing note than in this
sublime passage.
Now there are four key words in
this charming welcome. The first is
“Come!”, a beautiful, gracious word
cur Master uttered rather frequent
ly. Jesus is the world’s greatest
Friend. Here is the note of a woo
er, a lover who. understands. What
we all want today is security, and
we get it when we come close to
Jesus. He extends His arms of in
vitation to us, who are burdened and
broken-hearted, and we find rest in
Him.
The second key word is “Take!”
Jesus is the world’s greatest Giver.
And what are we to take? Christ’s
yoke! Now there are two types of
yoke the galling bitter yoke that
binds the slave to his hateful task,
and the kindly, comfortable yoke
that holds the oxen together so that
they work easily and harmoniously.
It is the latter yoke Jesus plainly
has in mind. We are to bear His
yoke, with Himself in the traces
walking along with us. What a beau
tiful privilege!
The third key word is “Learn!”
Jesus is the world’s greatest Teach
,er. And what do we learn? Noth
ing less than that life, despite its
misery and failure, is a glorious,
magnificent experience, rich in heav
enly beauty and joy. We learn fur
ther the guiding principles of Chris
tian conduct, renunciation, non-re
sistance, and that personal integrity
that includes humility fidelity, cour
age, and sincerity.
The final key word is “Find!” Je
sus is the world’s greatest Treasure
House.. And what do we find? We
discover the rest that comes through
intimate association with the world’s
