have general charge of the .- hibitCon
again this year. It was through the
influence of Ptr H? stings that the
Chamber of Commerce too' up the
Corn Show work, and his in 1 rest has
been a leading factor iu il> success.
It is impossible to estiina© • the
value of the Corn Club movement to
Georgia agriculture. The production
of corn in Georgia has been increased
between $30,000,000 and $40, 000,000
during the past six years. The 1 .,'tiera'
of the Corn Club boys, who first look¬
ed on the movement as a fad, have at
last come to realize its great practical
value, and are now as much Interested
as the boys in increasing the pro¬
ductiveness of their laDd.
The corn club movement has spread
all over the South, and extensive plans
for this year are being made in prac¬
tically all the SoiiUmm states. Mr.
Hastings has renoved for 1914 his of¬
fer of $1,200 !n corn club prizes to
be distributed among the ten princi¬
pal Southern corn-growing states. The
H. G. Hastings prizes in Georgia in¬
clude a $250 scholarship at the Stale
College of Agriculture and cash prize*
of $30 and $20.
The Hastings scholarship was wen
last year by Carl Campbell of Pauld¬
ing countv, who mpde 158 bushels to
an acre at a profit of $147.85. The
state recoil was nu.d ■ by Edward
Wellborn of Morgan county, with ,81
bushels. He chose as his prize the
Percheron mare offered by the Cen¬
tral of Georgia Railway.
