' SARDIS AND REED CREEK WIN HART COUNTY SCHOOL MEET HONORS
LITERARY SCORE AWARDED TO
SARDIS; REED CREEK BEST
IN ATHLETICS
r Friday, April 24th, was a big day
for the school children of the county
when the annual Hart County School
Meet was held. The meet this year
was ■perhaps more successful than
ever before. Some 500 children
took part in the day’s program.
Twenty-four schools out of twenty
six in the county were represented
;n the day’s events.
Promptly at 9:30 the program be
; n in the main auditorium with the
school building crowded to its cap
acity. After America was sung by
the school children, Rev. W. A. Dun
can conducted a short devotional ex
cise. Col. A. S. Skelton delivered
a splendid address on Education.
Short talks were made by Prof. All
man. Supt. W. B. Morris and Prof.
W R. Eskew.
All of the morning program was
devoted to the Literary contests
which included Arithmetic, Spelling,
Letter Writing, Reading, Declama
tion and Recitation and other school
work. The afternoon was devoted
to Athletics.
The contests this year showed
much improvement on the part of the
children in every department. Es
pecially good were the declamations
and recitations. Competition was
very keen among all of the schools.
Quite a bit of interest was shown in
the health contests that were put on
under the direction of Miss McLana
. han. This was the first year this has
C been put on at the County Meet and
the exhibits were very good indeed.
It is safe to say that these County
Meets are helping to build the right
kind of school spirit in Hart county.

EDITOR SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR
WRITES OF VISIT TO HART CO.
By EDITOR HUNNICUTT
The Southern Cultivator
The Reed Creek Consolidated School
of Hart County.
On November the sth, 1924, we
were attending the fair at Anderson,
South Carolina, and we saw the
judges pin the blue ribbon on the
agricultural exhibit from the Reed
Creek community of Hart county,
Georgia. We looked over the beauty
of the design in this exhibit, noticed
the high quality of every article in
it, and then saw the uniformity of
packing and we understood just why
the Reed Creek exhibit won the prize.
Then we said to ourselves, there is
a guiding hand over at the Reed
Creek section that we want to see
and know. So on April the 2nd, we
visited the Reed Creek Consolidated
School and met Mr. H. L. Fry, the
efficient superintendent and voca
tional teacher of agriculture. A
few years ago, there were 4 small
schools in the Reed Creek section,
and the County School Commissioner,
W. B. Morris, began a campaign to
consolidate these schools into one
first-class high school. As a result
they now have a fine brick school
house with nine class rooms. Now
(he curriculum prescribes ten grades.
Naturally we were most deeply in
terested in the agricultural feature
and just how much the school had
affected the farming interest of the
community. In 1924, Prof. Fry had
14 boys, who worked under his di
rection. They grew vegetables and
cotton. They averaged making from
$200.00 to $300.00 each. Some of
them are saving their money prepar
ing to further educate themselves.
One boy now has $1,000.00 that he
has made and saved. All of these
boys are paying their school ex
penses. Last June Prof. Fry started
a truck to Anderson in order to sell
the vegetables, and any surplus farm
products for the pupils and their
parents. In this way, they sold over
six thousand dollars worth of pro
ducts. Then in order to interest und
to help the adult farmers, Prof. Fry
organized the Reed Creek Pure Seed
Association, and secured the co-oper
ation of 30 farmers, who grow seed
corn, soy beans and Cleveland and
College No. 1 cotton seed. This as
sociation has been able to sell quite
a lot of seed and thus put extra dol
lars into the pockets of the farmers.
Last June, Prof. Fry got a truck load
of boys and they went down to the
farm of S. L. Thornton in the Nu
berg section and they spent the day
saving burr clover seed on halves.
Each boy brought home several bush
els of seed and we were deeply in
terested in visiting several farms and
seeing this wonderful soil builder
making its modest start to enrich
these acres on which they had been
sown. The Reed Creek Consolidated
School has 300 children in attend
ance. Four Ford trucks daily bring
in the children from the sections
where the four small school houses
were located. The work is all new,
but is a glorious beginning along
the right lines. The results that
have been attained are but a few
crumbs that have fallen from a table
that is loaded with good fruits for
every rural section that will follow
Reed Creek example. Commissioner
Morris already has four more start
ed and is doing campaign work in
three other districts. Hart is al
ready a good county, but this work
will soon make her the leading coun
ty in the state. Recently we were
in conversation with Charley Barrett,
and he said: “Everybody has some
panacea for the farmers’ ills, but
I can tell you in one word the farm
ers’ greatest need is leadership!”
Well, we can not have leadership
without this community organiza
tion, and the school is the natural
place around which this organization
should center and revolve. The only
leadership that will ever be true to
the farmer’s interest must be de
veloped in the rural communities.
Too long have we been led by the
leadership of the politician and they
have always sacrificed the farmer’s
interest to serve their own advance
ment. We hail with pleasure the
fine example that Reed Creek and
Prof. Fry has given us and we trust
before long one thousand rural com
munities in Georgia will be doing as
well or even better.
The Clover* on the Farm of S. L.
Thornton.
While over at Hartwell, Ga., we
enjoyed a trip down to the Nubcrg
section of the county, and saw the
wonderful growth‘of alfalfa, burr |
clover, crimson clover and hairy
vetch, that Mr. Luther Thornton has
grown on his farm. We have often
seen these plants in their glorjj on
South Carolina farms, but it is too
rare a sight on the “old Red Hills”
of our native state. Mr. Thornton
evidently fell in love with the clo
ver family, and he must have said:
“If one will help my land, why not
have them all and let them work to
gether harmoniously as they put the
needed nitrogen into my soil and
feed into my barn.” Mr. Thornton
was certainly using his head a lit
tle. Not many of our farmers use
their heads. If they did, they would
make money. They prefer to use
their hands more and grow poorer.
We do not like to “rub ft in” on
' our farmers now while they are so
ill, but the truth is just what is
needed now. You should have seen
Mr. Thornton’s burr clover and
Dwarf Essex rape growing together.
, He sows a large patch in rape, no
I he can go out and cut a basket full
' for his chickens, hogs and cows any
evening and thus give them the much
relished green food in the winter
time when it is so much needed.
, Naturally Mr. Thornton has live
i stock. He breeds Duroc hogs and
: Holstein cattle, and his clover is
I worth many dollars to him each year
|in feeding his live stock. Now, you
should see his six acres of alfalfa,
ten acres in crimson clover, ten
acres to burr clover and six acres
where burr clover, crimson clover
and hairy vetch all vie with one an
other to see which can grow the
greenest and put the most nitrogen
into the soil. Any farmer is simply
practicing a suicidal policy, who doos
not have clovers on his farm. Why
pay seventy-five dollars per ton for
nitrogen, when you can grow it all
distributed through your soil at a
cost of three dollars an acre? Sev
eral hundred farmers should go and
sec Mr. Thornton’s clover. It is sim
ply wonderful the growth it makes
when it has been planted on the
same land for several years. Each
year it excels the record of the year
before. "To him that hath shall he
given” sayeth the scripture and then
it adds: To him that will not use his
head, he will lose the little “that he
seemeth to have.” What a curse and
how literally our farmers are ex
periencing it now.
A Striking Example of What Manure
Will Do For Burr Clover.
While in the Reed Creek section
of Hart county, we went to see the
farm of a German farmer, who lives
near the school, named J. J. Mnci
jewski. Mr. Macijewski is succeed
ing finely with both crimson and burr
clover. Just in the rear of his house
he has quite a nice home orchard
and he scattered burr clover seed
over this orchard. He secured n
good stand, and it is making a good
growth for the first year. Out
away from the trees the clover was
three to four inches tall. Mr. Maci
jewski thought he would do his trees
u good turn, so he scattered manure
around them for eight or ten feet.
Here you will see a circle of burr
clover eight to ten inches tall just
' as far as the manure went. If
those who find it so difficult to get
clover to do well plant less and use
a little stable manure over it, then
you will see something move. It is
just wonderful what nitrogen will do
for even a nitrogen producing plant.
In fact nitrogen is the key to success
ful agriculture.
