Cold Storage of Egg*
Movements are on foot in Hart
county to store 75 cases of eggs in
Atlanta to be sold this fall and win
ter when prices are high.
This is part of a demonstration
worked out in cooperation with the
State Bureau of Markets, the Poultry
Division of the Georgia State College
of Agriculture, the Atlantic Ice and
Coal Company of Atlanta, railroad
officials and others. This is a de
monstration not only for the people
of Hart county, but for the State of
Georgia at large.
Enormous quantities of eggs are
being bought now at cheap prices,
and are being put in cold storage.
These eggs will come out of storage
this fall at a cost of about 5c per
dozen and will be sold on the market
at from 40 to 60c per dozen, depend
ing upon the price levels of the fresh
egg market. Inasmuch as meats and
similar products which compete with
eggs are high in price, it is expected
that the egg market will reach its
highest level this fall in years.
Last year eggs went into cold
storage at 20 and 25c a dozen and
came out and were sold at from 40
to 60c per dozen and the storage
people cleared 70 to 80 per cent on
their investment.
Eggs of not more than four days
of age will he shipped to Atlanta and
placed in storage. Farmers who can
get up as many as one dozen fresh
eggs are encouraged to put them in
the shipments which will be made
during the month of April in order
that they may learn more of the
storage game.
It is believed that as a result of
this demonstration that in the spring
of 1926, several carloads of eggs will
be placed in storage for Hart county
and the State of Georgia.
If interested, see your County
Agent.
Cover Crops
Your attention is again called to
the effects of rye, wheat, oats, crim
son clover, burr clover, hairy vetch,
etc., as cover crops. Numbers of
farmers have good demonstrations of
this thing this year. Hart county’s
cover crops acreage this year was
300 per cent greater than ever be
fore. You should have noticed that
lands where they have been growing
have washed much less. If these
cover crops are kept up from year
to year, the yield of cotton can be
doubled on the average land in a
short while.
Spray Orchard*
As soon as the young peaches be
gin to break through the shucks and
can be seen without a close examina
tion, then they should be sprayed
with one pound of arsenate of lead,
three pounds of lime and fifty gallons
of water to control the worms. This
is the important spray for worms. If
you have not already sprayed, by all
means get this one* in. The last

spray was not so effective because
the cool weather kept the worm
beetles under cover, and they have
done little damage. Unless you
spray at this time, you will notice
wax hanging on to the young peaches
showing that they have been
punctured.
Apples should be sprayed as soon
as the blooms or petals cover the
ground. Use one gallon of concen
trated lime sulphur solution to forty
gallons of water and to each fifty
gallons of this solution, add one
pound of arsenate of lead and put
the spray into the end of the young
apple, the end of the apple has an
opening in it now which will close
now in a very few days, and this
spray must be on before the end of
the young apple closes up. This is
often spoken of as the cup, and the
spray should be put on before the
cups close.
High Nitrogen
Bear in mind that to make a bale
of cotton per acre, it only takes the
phosphorous out of 212 pounds of
acid phosphate, but that it takes the
nitrogen out of 500 pounds of soda
or 1400 pounds meal. Knowing these
facts that it takes this large amount
of nitrogen in it. Further, since the
difference between poor land and
rich land grows poor in a few years
when we extract so much nitrogen
from it in cotton?
POOR MARKETS CAUSE
AGRICULTURE DEPRESSION
The failure to market our farm
crops more satisfactorily is the one
of the primary causes of the agri
cultural depression witnessed in re
cent years, says Dr. Andrew’ M. Soule
in his survey of the agricultural sit
uation in Georgia set forth in a re
cent bulletin of the State College of
Agriculture entitled “The Need of
A Balanced Farm Program.”
Something of a substantial and
fundamental nature must be done,
he says, to correct the marketing
situation before we can anticipate
the return of another prosperous era
for farmers. About one-third of the
farm crops in the United States were
marketed cooperatively last year to
the material advantage of the Inad
owner, and this, it is set forth, offers
one of the most practical and satis
factory answers to the difficult sit
uation by which farmers are now
confronted.
Dr. Soule outlines in detail the
crops adapted to Georgia, and ex
plains that the acreage of practi
cally all our main crops could be
profitably increased. The cotton
acreage in his opinion should not be
extended, but should be limited to
3,000,000 acres, representing a cut
of about 40 per cent in the acreage
which has been planted some years.
Alfalfa is strongly recommended
for the northern section of the state.
TiT iIZS
These lands are well adapted to the
growth of this crop it is stated, and
tl»e prediction is made that this crop
in the future will mean as much to
North Georgia as tobacco docs to
the sodth Georgia section.
Copies of Dr. Soule’s survey may
be obtained free from the Georgia
State College of Agriculture. Athens,
as long as the supply lasts.

IN MEMORY
On Saturday morning, March 28,
1925. the death angel silently entered
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lester
Bailey and took away their brightest
jewel in the spirit of their darling
baby, Lester, Jr.
It was given to the parents for
only a few months to love and then
taken away leaving then sad and
broken hearted, but do not grieve
dear father, mother, brothers and
sisters, for we know that God in His
infinite wisdom never makes a mis
take and since it was His will to
transplant the precious bud from
earth to bloom in heaven, let us say:
"Not our will, but thine be done.”
A precious one from us is gone,
a little voice we loved is still. There’s
a vacancy in the home.
That never can be filled.
