The return of the appraisers setting apart twelve month’s support to the Widow of E. L. Griffin deceased having been filed in my office, all persons concerned are cited to show cause by the 6th day of June 1955, why said application for twelve month’s support should not be granted. This May 2nd. 1955. James N. Stewart. Ordinary. The undersigned, as adminis trator of the estate of Joe W. Jones, by virtue of an order from the Court of Ordinary of Wayne County, Georgia, will sell at public outcry, on the first Tuesday in June, 1955, at the court-house door in said county, between the legal hours of sale, the following described land: Ten (10) acres, more or less, in original lot of land 135, in the 3rd land district of Brantley County, Georgia, and bounded on the North, East and South by original lot lines of said lot, and on the West by the main run of Barber Branch. Said lot of land being the same as conveyed by M. C. Jones to J. W. Jones, March 28, 1950, as shown by deed recorded in Deed Book 16, page 198, of the records of Brantley County, Georgia, and being all of lot 135 lying East of Barber Branch. Terms Cash This 2nd day of May, 1955. Robert L. Harrison Administrator How to Freeze Chicken Told by Food Specialist Mrs. Ruth Broach, food preser vationist for the University of Georgia Agricultural Extension Service, gives these suggestions for freezing poultry. Select birds that have grown rapidly and are well fattened. Fast birds over-night, but keep water available to them until they are killed. Hang the chicken by its feet and kill by cutting its throat. Scald fryers 30 seconds in wa ter 128 F. Older birds will re quire longer scalding time. Do not over-scald because this af fects keeping qualities. After picking, singe pin feathers in a smokeless flame and wash thor oughly. Dress birds. Be sure to remove lungs and oil sac. Chill promptly in crushed ice, but do not soak. Press wings flat against sides of the bird and tie the wings and legs down with soft twine. Wrap giblets separately and place them on one side just below the wing. When freezing whole birds or roasters wrap them individually in .0015 gauge aluminum foil, moisture proof cellophane, polye thylene, or a good grade of lock er paper. Each package should be taped up or tightly enclosed in stockingnette. Broilers for freezing should be split in half. Cut fryers the way wanted for the table. Package pieces of a kind together, rather than put all pieces of one chic ken in each pcckage.

Vine Cuttings of New Sweet Potato May Be Available Planting material for Georgia Red, a new sweet potato variety recently released by the Coastal Plain Experiment Station at Tif ton, was limited, but seed potat oes for the 1956 season can be produced from vine cuttings set in June or early July. Silas A. Harmon, associate hor ticulturist in charge of develop ing Georgia Red, said this week that vine cuttings possibly could be obtained from the following growers: J. W. Aultman, Rt. 3, and E. Y. Stokes, Rt. 7, Macon; Bryan S. Walker, Madison; John Glad ney and Jack Rigdon, Tifton; B. C. Haynes, 645 Evans St., Bain bridge; Vestland Farms and Lee land Farms, Leesburg; L. L. Heidt, Cordele; John Pridgen, Broxton; James Daughtrey, Len ox; Schroer Plant Farms, Val dosta; the Coastal Plain Experi ment Station, Tifton, and the Georgia Experiment Station, Ex periment. Harmon said that the excel lent eating and keeping qualities of the Georgia Red were import ant factors in determining its re lease. He pointed out that Geor gia Red has been given the high est rating in several taste-panel tests on baking potatoes. In one consumer test, a retail grocer tripled his weekly volume sales of sweet potatoes by using Geo rgia Red where he had been selling Porto Rico, Goldrush, and Earlyport, the horticulturist ad ded. “In storage, the performance of Georgia Red is excellent,” said Harmon. “While comparative studies in which potatoes are in oculated with rot fungi have not been made, no serious storage rots have ever been observed on Georgia Red. Potatoes of excel lent quality have been taken from storage as late as May 15.” Harmon also pointed out that Georgia Red does not sprout as quickly or as profusely in stor age as does Porto Rico. The horticulturist said that Georgia Red is a good producer of plants. It produces more plants per bushel than any of the Porto Rico strains, Goldrush, or Early port. In six weeks and four days after bedding in electrically heat ed hotbeds, Georgia Red has pro duced an average of 1,500 plants per bushel in two pullings. The new potato also has high plant livability, according to Harmon. Under the adverse con ditions of 1954, the greatest sur vival of transplants from any variety of both slips and cuttings was observed in Georgia Red. The fast, vigorous vine growth insures plenty of vine cuttings for vine-growth storage potatoes and for a seed crop, he asserted. While not resistant to stem rot, the Georgia Red will survive and produce more potatoes on stem-rot infected soils that will Porto Rico, Harmon continued. Its nematode tolerance appears to be equal to that of Porto Rico. He added that the variety is not resistant to Internal Cork. Incidence of cork is not as high as in Porto Rico, but enough has been found to classify it as cork susceptible. TALES OUT OF SCHOOL By Bernice McCullar State Department of Education NO PLACE FOR BABY SIT TERS - If new salary schedules go into effect for teachers (and there’s much talk about them), you’re going to see teachers fi nancially able to get better and better training, to travel more, and to be more well qualified to help your youngster develop his mind and character and body. The schoolroom is nb place for mere baby sitters, however kind ly and helpful they may be. No thing in this world is more im portant that your child having the guidance of a first class mind and a topnotch character in these years of his growing. Do what you can to help us get good pay for teachers, and good teachers for the pay! THE MOPPET WHO MUR- Dered - Have you ever heard about an eight year old with pigtails and a record of murder ing three people? If you are in terested in books about children not just the syrupy sentimental, but the psychological and the provocative as well - it may in terest you to know that this mur der story, titled THE BAD SEED is now ir^ a twenty-five cent book at your corner drugstore. Starts with a mamma looking back and remembering that the day of the Sunday School picnic was the last day of peace she was ever to know. This is also a play on Broadway just now. ARE YOUR MEETINGS EVER LIKE THIS: Here’s a charming little comment on meetings, by a little Indian girl. It’s one of many such things in the books of the Little Herder Series. Colorado River Project Would Hit Taxpayers Hard Georgia taxpayers this week were warned that they would be faced with $61,200,000 in added taxes if the proposed Upper Colo rado River Basin Project bill is passed by Congres. The Senate already has approved the bill and it is now pending in the House. A statement issued by the Colorado River Association said that this bill, which calls for a number of large dams on the up per reaches of the Colorado River and numerous irrigation projects in the states of Colo rado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming, would cost the nation’s taxpayers more than $4 billion in hidden subsidies. The total cost to the nation’s taxpayers is based on repayment schedules presented to Senate and House Interior Committees by the U. S. Bureau of Reclama tion (1954). The cost to the tax payers of each state is based on computations by The Tax Foun dation, New York City and Wash ington, D. C. The Colorado River Associa tion, a volunteer citizens’ organ ization with members in Cali fornia and many other states, has joined conservation and taxpayer groups throughout the country in opposing the Upper Colorado River Basin Project bill. The Association pointed out that numerous other objections to this bill have been raised by large numbers of witnesses testi fying before Senate and House Interior Committee. Leslie A. Miller, former Gov ernor of Wyoming, now Chair man of the Hoover Commission Task Group on Reclamation and Water Supply, has stated that no new farm land is needed to feed America today and when it is, lands in humid areas can be de veloped at a fraction of the cost of this project. Major General Ulysses S. Grant 111, president of the American Planning and Civic Association recently said that if the American people allow Dinosaur National Monument to be invaded by this project, it could lead to the de struction of all of those stretches of natural beauty set aside for us and our descendents to enjoy at national parks or monuments. Senator J. W. Fulbright of Arkansas, told the Senate this project is “improvident, extrava gant and unjustifiable. . . ” Senator Thomas K. Kuchel of California recently revealed that the bill being considered does not conform with the program en dorsed by the President. “Nevertheless, this costly and difficult undertaking is anvanc ed with only a fragment of the extensive engineering, agricul tural and other data which should receive the most thorough ana lysis and examination before Con gress approves investment of im mense sums of taxpayers’ money on projects of the character en visioned,” Kuchel said. He also told the Senate that the Bureau of the Budget stated that it had not been supplied MEETINGS For a long time there have been meetings of many men for many days. At the meetings there is talking, talking, talk ing Some this way. Some that way. In the morning when my father leaves he says to us, “When I come here again then I will know if it is best to have many sheep or few sheep, To use the land Or let it sleep.” But when my father comes home fro m the meeting he does not know which talking way to follow. Tonight when my father came home he just sat, looking, looking. My mother gave him coffee and bread and mutton But my father just sat, looking. Then my mother spoke to me. She said, “A meeting is like rain. Where there is little talk now and then here and there, it is good. It makes thoughts grow as little rain makes corn grow. But big talk, too much is like a flood, taking things of long standing before it.” My mother said this to me. But I think she wanted my father to hear it.” with adequate data on the engi neering, financial and economic feasibility of the proposed pro jects to determine the justifi cation for them.

This group of boys started out with no money. Using the chap ter dues, they purchased record books and paid state and nation al dues. This left a balance of $17.10 of that fund. They sold $425 worth of tobacco plants, S2O worth of tomato plants, and made SSO on a program sponsored jointly by the F. F. A. and F. H. A. They also had some fun along with the work. The senior boys, whom Mr. Anderson said he felt privileged to have worked with for four years, enjoyed a social at Johnson’s Lake and a chicken supper at the Lindsay Grace F. F. A. Camp. The ninth grade enjoyed a social at Johnson’s Lake, and two week end camping trips at the Lindsay Grace F. F. A. Camp.
