EVERYBODY INVITED

Hartwell, Ga.
Two Hart Lads Are
Winning Signal
. Honors
“Out of ten thousand.” This may
well be applied to John- Sherman and
Fred Burean Smith, sons of Mr. and
Mrs. H. H. Smith, of Bowersville,
Georgia. Not the fact that they are
successful graduates of the Univer
sity of Georgia are they to be recog
nized as such distinguished and hon
ored citizens. The fact is that out
of all other graduates of all the
other leading colleges in the United
States, they have been appointed
for research and scientific investiga
tional work in those institutions they
are now connected.
Only through the highest merit
can an appointment of this nature
be awarded, according to authorities
on this subject. Through patient
toil have these young men gained an
end that any man might epvy. Ac
cording to them it was not without
a severe struggle. They have work
ed their way through high school and
college, and will not advise any one
to follow in their footsteps unless
he can see nothing but the goal
ahead. It would be useless to start
with a half hearted effort, it must be
all or none. It is worth the time
and work when you reach the end
and know that you have not been
struggling for nothing.
John Sherman Smith is connected
with the State ■ College and Univer
sity of Florida, as assistant to the
Chief of Agricultural Economics
where he will complete his master’s
work. After the completion of the
work there to be transferred to one
of the leading colleges of the north
for his Ph. D. Degree. Fred B.
Smith will complete his Ph. D. De
gree, lowa State College, in June,
1926. ,
During an interview with these
two young men at different times and
widely separately places they state
pratically the same which is the fol
lowing: “To the man who seeks
success I can point to him only one
route, that is hard work and no pay
until he has reached his destination.
I wish to emphasize the fact that to
get a college education by sheer dint
of work is no easy job. There come
times when one is prone to lay down I
his tools and give it up as a bad
job. Right here is where he can
judge for himself whether he is de
serving of success or not, for to quit I
can prove only one thing, and that is '
your ambition is not there, you lack '
in the true making of a successful
man. But if one could only realize
the reward that awaits him at the
end of the road he could not quit
if he tried.”

t Heavy Demand increases
Chevrolet Production 4s
New Models Come Out
Detroit, Mich., Sept. 15.—Sus
tained demand and a growing list qf
unfilled orders has caused the Che
vrolet Motor Company to increase
’ heavily its production schedule dur
-1 ing September.
! The schedule .revision involves an
' increase of more than 16 per cent
■ over the production program origin
’ ally planned for September. The new
’ schedule calls for 53,165 motor cars
and trucks in September, a Chevro
let record for that month and only
‘ 3,078 less than the highest produc
; tion month in the history of the com
pany.
Both day and night shifts have
been augmented to maintain the new
schedule. The company shipped 4,-
! 284 cars to dealers on August 31,
establishing a new record 600 higher
• than the highest previous shipment
for one day.
The company, which recently made
its two-millionth car, attained dur
ing Augusta greater production thus
far for 1925 than the entire produc
tion of 1924.
Several factors have contributed
to the unprecedented demand accord
ing to C. E. Dawson, assistant gen
eral sales manager of the Chevrolet
Motor Company.
“The August 1 reduction of S4O to
SSO in the closed model prices to
gether with the announcement of the
improvements on all models caused
a still further increase in the unfilled
order list,” said Mr. Dawson. “The
greatest demand at present appears
to be for the Chevrolet Coach; In
creased popularity also has been gain
ed by the new Utility Express one
ton truck which has replaced the
former truck of the same name.
'‘Another factor in car demand is
the rapid economic recovery of the
south and the southwest where pur
chasing power is now on a par with
the remainder of the country.”

THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., SEPTEMBER 18, 1925
Alfalfa Is Best Hay
Crop For Hart Co.
Says Mr. Bryant
On, of the great needs of the
agriculture of Hart county is a plant
that will produce a good hay crop. ’
And for the most sections of the
county alfalfa seems to be the best
crop to fill this need. During the I
past fifteen years farmers in all sec- i
tions of the county have produced j
: it successfully.
Under normal conditions it is rea
sonable to expect from three to five
cuttings per year with that many tons
of cured hay per acre. Os course
if the weather is such as we have ■
been having during the past summer
you could not expect such returns.
| With a small acreage of alfalfa on
i every farm in Hart county there is
;no reason for the hay supply to
i give us much concern.
Some of the essentials to sticcess-
I ful alfalfa culture are: good drained
upland soil, a sufficiency of organic
i matter in the soil, ground limestone
I and inoculation. Alfalfa is a deep-
I rooted plant, therefore it will require
good drainage. It a quick grow
ing plant and will require a rich
soil. Most of the soils of Hart coun
ty w'ill require a supplement of stable
manure to grow, alfalfa profitably.
Alfalfa loves a sweet soil and it will
I require from one to two tons of
ground limestone per acre. Most of
the soils of the county will need in
oculation for alfalfa. This can be
done by using dirt from a field that
has previously grown alfalfa or burr
clover. The same bacteria carry in
oculation for Burr clover as for al
falfa. Or it can be done by artifi
cial cultures. The land should have
anapplication of 400 to 600 pounds
of acid phosphate per acre applied
to it sometime in advance of seed
ing. The plant consuming large
quantities of phosphorus.
As to the time of seeding, if al
falfa can be sown by October 10th,
the fall sowing gives good results.
But the spring sowing has given good
results in this section of the state.
| The seed bed should be firm and
| moist to give the small plants a quick
I start. The rate of seeding should be
30 pounds per acre. If the above
methods are carried out you should
have no difficulty in securing a good
stand and getting good results from
alfalfa.

County Agent.
