How I Developed My Market Project

(Editor’s Note: In view of the

markets for surplus farm produce,
the following- story by a Georgia

Natural balance! That’s the secret.
Uncle Natchel says that’s everything in Sonny’s learning
to ride his mule.
And be sure of natural balance in your nitrate, too!
Chilean Nitrate of Soda is natural the only natural
nitrate. For over 100 years it's been a dependable source of
nitrogen for nearly every crop that's grown. Now we’re
learning the importance of its other vital elements, such as
iodine, boron, calcium, magnesium, manganese, potash, zinc,
iron, copper and many others. Chilean Nitrate of Soda carries
these vital elements in Nature's balance and blend.

of the largest in Georgia. And our
county seat, Swainsboro, is one of
the most thriving sman towns m the

Swainsboro.
About March 15, 1937’ the ladies
of the Home Demonstration Clubs
were notified to meet in Swainsboro
to see if a farmer’s market could be
organized. Of course we met, and
by the help of our Home Demonstra
tion Agent we decided to open the
THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
20th of March. We opened on that
date and have continued to operate
once or twice a week, according to
the supply of vegetables.
I planted a small garden in the
spring, just a little larger than I
thought it would take for our family
use. I did not know whether the
town ladies would cooperate with us
in maintaining the market, and I did
not want the supply that I could not
use to go to waste. I was working
to get as much profit as possible out
of my garden. When I started to
fertilize my garden, I used a lot of
compost, as I did not have to buy
that. I consulted several good gar
deners about the kind of seed and
planting dates, because I did not
want to make a failure.
As you probably have guessed, I
am an inexperienced gardener. Af
ter marrying, I lived in town until
everybody decided to cut expenses,
and my husband and I knew we could
not live on the salary he would get.
We bought a farm with the idea of
a live-at-home program.
When a place in which to sell veg
etables was mentioned, 'so that the
ladies could have spending money,
I thought probably I could help my
husband with his financial problems.
He conceived the idea at once that
he would plow the garden and I
would hoe. We talked about the
time when we could take our vege
tables to town and sell them, and
not be classed as peddlers. We took
our eggs, chickens, and whatever we
could spare to the market, and in
return we bought dry goods and
groceries.
I did not sell with just one pro
ject in view, but with the idea of
using teh money where it was needed
most. We did not have to go in debt
during the summer and when fall
came we had our money crop to pay
on our home. Different ladies in our
community went with us to market
| and that helped out with expenses.
I When our Home Demonstration
Agent can’t be at the market, an
other lady and I look after it. For
our services we don’t have to pay a
fee to sell.
I feel that with the knowledge I've
gained I will sell a lot more than I
have. If we can make a success from
now on, I am sure we will soon have
our home paid for, with the future
help of our two fine boys. I have
just two aims in life: to make fine
citizens of the boys and to own our
I home.

FARM BRIEFS

S. B. Fenne, who recently joined
the Georgia Agricultural Extension
Service staff as plant pathologist, has
gone right to work with the farmers
in South Georgia in their efforts to
learn how to combat blue mold in
tobacco beds.
Anew bulletin entitled “Austrian
Winter Peas and the Vetches” has
just been released by the Agricultu
ral Extension Service. This new pub
lication, No. 453, was prepared by
E. D. Alexander, extension agronom
ist, and is a revision of a bulletin
issued in 1936. One of the main
points brought out is that both cot-
ton and com yields may be greatly
increased in Georgia by planting
them after a crop of austrian winter
peas or vetch. Rotations that in
clude winter and summer legumes
for soil conservation and improve
ment are essential for agricultural
development in Georgia. The new
bulletin contains a suggested list of
rotations, including legumes, supply
and cash crops. The bulletin may
be obtained free of charge from
county agents.

| Moat curing plants apparently are
meeting with success in Georgia,
particularly in South Georgia whqre
the warm climate makes it difficult
to handle meat properly. Jones Pur
cell, of Tifton, swine specialist for
the Georgia Agricultural Extension
Service, recently visited meat curing
plants in two South Georgia towns
(Jesup and Blackshear) an dhe re
ports that farmers are patronizing
these plants where ever they are
available. Purcell reasoned that as
the managers are pleased with the
patronage, the farmers must be
pleased with the service.
Joseph C. Kircher, Southern re
gional director of the Forest Ser
vice, told the Southeastern Planning
Conference recently the South’s for
ests can grow more than enough tim
ber to keep present forest industries
“going forever” provided the timber
is protected from fire and “present
destructive cutting practices are
abandoned.” Kircher said the forest
industries of today “are utilizing
