Sprays.
I Orchards which have not been
I grayed the last two years should be
I sprayed as soon as possible now with
I lime-sulfur solution. This can be

r buy- The cost is about $12.50 per
50 gallon barrel delivered. This will
[ make 400 to 500 gallons of spray,
fl This should be used again on the tree
fl just before the buds burst in the
spring. It is used a little in the early
I summer for rotten apples also. Place
[ your order at once for spray.

I Good Roads
fl EDITORS SUN: —Every citizen in
Hartwell and Hart county should be
■ so deeply interested in good roads
B that we would study the road prob-
B lems and rise up as one man and de
ft maud a square deal from the State
■ I Highway Department.
ft One proposition was submitted to
I the legislature to distribute all funds
ft to each county according to the
I amount paid in by each county; this
B was objected to on the grounds that
B ; Fulton and other rich counties would
I get more than they needed . It was
ft claimed that Hart county would get
fl* more mileage and more money if all
W* funds were collected and used by the
H department in building roads regard
fl less of county lines or county wealth.
■ Hart county has failed so far to be
■ placed on the map with enough mil
fl eage and has utterly failed to get her
■ pro rata share of funds. Hart coun-
■ ty has been well advertised as one of
fl the banner counties of Georgia, but
fl when it comes to getting a square
fl deal in road funds, we are classed
fl among the unfortunate.
■ V> e challenge any man or set of
fl men to show that Hart county is not
being literally robbed.
We are entitled to our pro rata
fl share of Federal aid and for some
■ reason this has been and is being
■ withheld. If it is on account of a
■ toll bridge then why not get this
H money and spend it on the Lavonia
■ road or some other road? There is
fl no ason why Hart county should be
fl put; med because a progressive citi-
H zen has built a bridge.
■ We have no toll bridges to Elber
ton. Lavonia, Canon or Bowersville.
Our pro rata share of road mileage
should be equal to that of Franklin
fl county or many other counties of
fl Georgia. Our pra rata share of Fed
fl eral aid is not less than $15,000 per
fl year. Our share of licensed tags is
fl not less than $14,000 per year. Our
fl share of the gasoline tax is not less
fl than $9,000 per year. What per
fl cent of this enormous sum are we
fl getting?
B If Hart county had been getting
fl a square deal the road to Alford’s
BB Bridge would have been completed
paid for and the road from La-
via Hartwell to the Elbert
fl county line wouTd have been finished.
K If Hart county could only get back
■ what she is paying in, we would
■ so<-n have good roads all over the
■ county.
B Any citizen of Hartwell or Hart
■ county that speaks in favorable
H terms of the methods of the State
■ Highway Department as it relates
>\t<j Hart, must be totally ignorant of
yact-. Under our present conditions
flfwe should not be called upon to use

get into the crimson clover game.
It will make land. A bunch of
farmers from over the county were
at the farm of S. L. Thornton last
Wednesday afternoon and saw clover
six inches high, and lots of it three
and four inches. W. K. McGee of
Airline sowed crimson clover with
success Christmas week last year.
Seed Rye.
Registered seed is taking the day.
Some farmer’ in Hart county can
make some money next year by sow
ing a few acres of registered rye now.
S. L. Thornton will sow in a few days
18 acres for seed. Several farmers
have a few acres sown, but there is
not enough. Mr. Thornton sowed
two acres of rye last Dec. 22nd and
harvested 46 bushels from it. Can
you beat it?
Culling Hens.
We gave a culling demonstration
at the home of J. Walton White last
Wednesday morning. If you have not
culled your flock, you should. The
idea that all your hens are good is
what is keeping your flock from pay
ing. Cull them, then feed in right,
and provide good housing, and you
should get eggs now while they are
high.
the convicts of Hart county in build
ing any part of a State road as we
have already paid in decidedly more
money than is necessary to complete
every mile of road that this depart
ment has put on the map in Hart
county.
We are anxious to build good roads
in Hart county but we will never
make any progress until we get a
square deal with the State Depart
ment.
One of our Commissioners said a
few days ago: “It is ridiculous for
Hart county to be treated in such a
manner.”
If the figures and facts that we
have submitted are incorrect, then
please publish the facts. Let’s unite
by demanding a square deal from
this department and then the con
victs can be kept on the leading
roads of Hart county, and the State
Highway Department can complete
the State roads through this county
with funds that we have already paid
in.
In many sections of Hart county
the farmers have been called upon
to co-operate with the Commissioners
in furnishing right-of-way and soil
and in many cases teams have been
furnished.
In 1925 we need to start a new
program by having the State High
way Department co-operate with us
by giving us a square deal and then
let the farmers cooperate with the
Commissioners of Hart county.
Too much of the road business in
Hart county has been handled in an
unbusinesslike way and entirely too
much of our money has gone to parts
unknown, while thousands of taxpay
ers and children in the consolidated
school districts have had to suffer.
Let’s have a square deal and better
roads.

That in the death of Mr. John

Preaching and Sunday school at
Cross Roads every first and third
Sunday afternoon. Preaching by Rev.
Steed pastor. Sunday school in the
morning on other Sundays. Every
body come and bring someone with
you. Let’s make our Sunday school
grow instead of fall down during
the winter months. Parents come
to Sunday school every Sunday and
bring your children. If they see you
are interested in your church they
will be also. If you cannot come and
bring your children, see that they
come anyway, for it is just as im
portant that your children go to
Sunday school as it is for them to go
to school. If children go to Sunday
school when they are young they will
get in the habit of going and not
want to stay away when they grow
up, as so many of our young people
of today are doing. Let’s everybody
go to Sunday school next Sunday
morning and have a full house. Visi
tors always welcome.

METHODIST CIRCUIT
We were delighted to have the
Hart County Epworth Leagues meet
in union service with us last Sunday.
Their program was instructive and
helpful to all. The Methodist young
people of Hart county are doing a
great work through their League
organizations, and we trust they wiil
make their union meeting an annual
event here.
Regular services next Sunday
morning and evening.
Our church sent a full financial
report to the Conference in Atlanta
last week. Every obligation was met
and a splendid record made along
every line. The Hartwell church still
leads the forty-odd churches in the
Elberton District for its record of
meeting every call in full.
Chairman A. F. Bell, of the Board
of Stewards, was in charge of the
Sunday school last Sunday, in the
absence of the Superintendent.
