The 1957 County Tax Books are now open. If
anyone wishes to pay their 1957 taxes now, we are
ready to receive the payments.
All delinquent taxpayers will please come in and
I see about your back taxes as the County needs the

into extra money and costs to you. So, please come

Those of you who have a back tax on your car or
truck will have to have these paid by Jan. 1, 1958, in
order to be able to get a tag.
Please don’t wait until the last minute to pay
these as you will have to have your tax receipt before

So, please come in and get these at once.

Speaks at PCA-NFLA Meeting
300 Attended
Meeting of
Loan Groups
Over 300 stockholders and
visitors attended the annual
stockholders meeting of the Sa

tion and the Satilla National
Farm Loan Association held in
Blackshear Friday, Nov. 22, at
the courthouse.
The group heard the guest
speaker, 14-year-old Lindsey
Thomas of Patterson, emphasize
the growing importance of to
day’s farmer.
“Agriculture is vital and nec
essary to our economy, especial
ly so in our section,” he said.
“No amount of money could per
suade a successful and efficient
Pierce county farmer to sell his
land and look for another means
of livelihood”.
The young agricultural enthu
siast, son of Mr. and Mrs. Son
Thomas, is in the ninth grade
and is president of the senior
4-H Club at Patterson High
School. He has represented
Pierce county for three years in
the 4-H Club public speaking
contest and has placed second in
the Eighth District for the past
two years.
Young Thomas drove home the
importance of continued farm
efforts in this fast changing
world. “Agriculture has changed
more in the past 20 years than
it ever has before and there are

greater changes to take place

which PCA and NFLA has play

fice for a total of $1,665,000.
Mr. James, secretary-treasurer
of the local PCA since 1947,
pointed out that for the past two
years the local association has
been completely farmer-owned.
Emphasizing that requests for
loans have recently been on the
increase he urged members to
buy class A stock thus enabling
the association to .make more
loans.
The stockholders voted appro
val for the sale of more stock
following a motion to that effect.
