MAY marks the Centennial anniversary of the establish
ment of the United States Department of Agriculture. On
May 15, 1862, President Lincoln signed it into being.
Since then, agriculture has compiled one of the nation’s
most impressive production records. In 1862, one farmer
produced food and fiber for five people. Today, he pro
duces enough for 26! Result: now, more than 90 per cent
of our people have no worries about enough food. Also,
the tremendous strength of our nation today depends
heavily on the unequalled productivity of the American
farmer. And, of course, as both producer and consumer,
his contribution has been important in helping America
achieve its high standard of living. I, for one, am happy
to join in this Centennial salute to our farmers . . . and
say “thanks” for the part they have done in the develop
ment of our nation. * * * *

BUTTS COUNTY
SOIL NEWS
By JAMES E. PAYNE
Soil Conservation Service
Rev. J. Ray Dunahoo, Fayette
ville, Georgia, Rev. C. P. Watson,
Molena, Georgia, and the Rev.
T. H. Wilder, Jackson, Georgia
have been named District Chap
lains of the Towaliga Soil Con
servation District by the Super
visors.
A state-wide training session
for the newly appointed Chap
lains of the 27 Conservation Dist
ricts was led April 13 in Macon
by Dr. G. Ross Freeman of Emory
University, State Chaplain, Mr.
Cecil W. Chapman, State Conser
vationist, and Mr. Harold Hay
good, President of the Georgia
Association of Conservation Dist
ricts. An effort was made to pro
vide the biblical and theological
foundations for conservation,
background information which
the chaplains will need for their
work, plans for the 1962 soil
stewardship week, and other ways
in which these ministers can re
mind people of the state of their
dependence upon the natural re
sources which God has given.
“So far as I know,” Mr. Chap
man told the ministers, “no other
state has named District Chap
lains. You are pioneering in a
very worthwhile effort to empha
size the spiritual implication of
Conservation."
Responsibility for promoting
Soil Stewardship Week activities
May 27-June 3 is the first major
assignment of the District Chap
lains. W. T. Evans, District
Supervisor from Butts county
urges everyone to lend our local
District Chaplain, Rev. Wilder,
the necessary assistance so that
we may have the best observance
yet of Soil Stewardship Week
this year.
