Suppose we Nahunta people stmt
something —finish it too. Wecculd,
that is every business concern in
town could, if they would offer r
prize of some kind for the farmer,
who would bring in, say a stalk of
cane cr the largest potato on Satur
day of each week.
Each merchant or business con
cern would necessarily have to giv--
a different prize and advertise it.
Don’t you fellows get uneasy, we
will not charge for the advertising.
This will prove to be a great drav.
card. It will be educational for
the farmers to compete with their
products.
If the Nahunta merchants are
not interested, then perhaps the
Hickox or Lulaton merchants would
be interested.
We will start the ball to rolling.
Saturday, October 29th, we will
give the farmer who brings the
largest potato to the Banner office a
subscription to the Banner for one
year.
Bring your potato on that day
and lets see who gets the one year
free.

Keep Up With
Times.
That money can be made on cane
has already been proven by Mr. J.
3. White. Mr. iVhile planted 3-4
[Uarters of an acre in green cane
this year and off of this small patch
ie has sold approximately SIOO.OO
worth of cane and says that he has
■evera] hundred dollars worth of
cane left in the patch if he could
ell it by the stalk.
He estimates that he will make
’>oo gallons of syrup from this same
patch of cane. He can sell this
yr up at 75 cents per gallon if he
puts it on the market while its new
syrup. When figued out it will
•omu to $225.00, then add the SIOO
that he has already made and it
vill total $325.00. Now figure a
ittle and you will be able to see
that if he bad planted an acre it
would have been worth $426.40.
The same grade of land is selling ir»
this county for sls an acre and up
ward to a SIOO. Think of that —
an acre of land selling for that sum
of money and producing from four
to eight times that much in one
year.
Mr. ^hite planted that cane in
the spring. He can gather in time
to grow a crop of oats or better stall
a fall and winter garden, which will
profit him almost as well as the
cane patch did. Either crop will
come off in time for another crop
next spring.
Far ners suffer millions of dollars
worth of losses eveiy year by fire.
■Statistics show that fires co t the
people of the United States $1,416,-
375,845 ip the five year period to
to 1920. A large per cent of the
losses is in the agricultural com
munities and many of the could be
prevented.
Sweet potatoes should be careful
handled, then they will present a
good appearance and will receive a
ready sale at prices that will more
than pay foi the extra time and
labor in handling.
The farmers are agitated over the
marketing question. Why should
not the merchant buyers help in
the solution of these questions.
Now is the time to give the pul
lets plenty corn. Get the hens fat
and add milk and others feeds to
help the egg production.

On Tuesday evening of

still near Oak Grove church
and brought it to town the

brought along some of the

eral to smell of it.
The parties were at the
still, but saw the officers in

iff took out warrant for
them and went back and ar
rested them Wednesday
