Coon Hound
Competition
Held Sept. 14
A good crowd was on hand last
Wednesday near Patterson to wit
ness the county’s first Coon
Hound dog exhibitions.
Some 60 dogs entered the sev
eral competitions. Owners from
adjoining counties and from as
far away as Ashburn, Ga., en
tered their prize dogs.
Winning ribbons in Pierce
county were Claude Hall and
Frank Hall of Patterson.
The enthusiasm displayed at
the event has encouraged the
Deep South Coonhunters Associa
tion to consider holding another
such event in the near future.

Horn Flies or ticks alone may

cause a 15 to 25 percent loss in
milk production of dairy cows,

When buying material for drap
eries for the home, it is better to
purchase an ample amount of less
expensive material than to skimp
on more expensive material, says
Miss Ava Rodgers, Extension
home economist. She points out
that skimpy draperies never look
pretty, but a generous amount of
inexpensive .material can look
beautiful.

Department of Agriculture
Gives Report on Leaf Sales
The Blackshear tobacco market
sold almost two million more
pounds of tobacco in 1960 than
was sold in 1959.
The U. S. Department of Agri
culture has reported 11,371,532
pounds gross sold for an average
of $58.45 per hundred. In 1959,
the gross was 9,444,292 pounds.
Blackshear’s gross was fifth
highest in the Georgia-Florida
flue-cured belt. In average price,
Blackshear stood in eighth place.
Alma was high at 60.59 cents pel
pound average, selling 5,430,674
pounds for the season.
The four top markets in gross
pounds were: Douglas, 15,307,750;
Statesboro, 14,139,372; Tifton,
12,121,024; and Vidalia, 11,880,040
Georgia’s total was 182,243,033
gross pounds for an average of
$56.44, according to the depart
ment report.
A record high gross value of
$102,898,000 was received for
sales of the 1960 Georgia-Florida
crop. This value exceeded last
year’s by about 10 million dol
lars and was nearly four million
dollars more than the previous
record high received for the 1955
crop.
The state’s average, however,
was $1.37 under last year’s. Still
it was the third highest on re
cord, being surpassed only by the
$57.13 average in 1958 and the
$57.83 average in 1959.
The department reported that
nearly half of the grade averages
declined from last year’s record
high prices.
However, around one-fourth
showed gains and about the same
number remained at their pre
vious levels. Decreases were
chiefly SI.OO to $4.00 per hun
dred pounds and occurred mainly
for primings and medium to bet
ter quality leaf grades.
Gains amounted to SI.OO or
$2.00 in most cases and centered
on lower quality lugs and non
descript. Smoking leaf, cutters
and better lugs generally were
unchanged from 1959.
The Flue-Cured Stablization
Corporation received about 2.3
million pounds of the Georgia-
Florida crop. This represented 1.3
per cent of gross sales.
Low and fair quality tobacco
made up more than two-thirds of
the sales in most parts of the
belt. The percentage of low
Teach Your Children Thrift
with^J^GREEN STAMPS
Many families use S&H Green Stamps to help
their children learn the all-important habit of saving.
They use them as awards for doing chores around the
home. For instance ...
So many S&H Green Stamps each week to daugh
ter for drying the dishes or helping clean house ... so
many to sonny for mowing the lawn or for other odd
jobs. Many housewives tell us it’s a wonderful way
to accomplish the twofold purpose of rewarding youngs
ters for tasks well done and showing them how thrift
pays.
Youngsters of every age from tots to teens love
S&H Green Stamps because they can redeem them for
a wide variety of quality items that are dear to chil
dren's hearts. Try this plan in your
home. You’ll be truly amazed to find
p—- . how well it works.

quality increased over last year;
however, less poor quality leaf
and more cutters were sold, the
Agriculture Department reported
This year’s markets opened on
July 28, as compared with July
23, in 1959. The season ended
September 2 in the Georgia-
Florida belt with final sales at
Claxton on August 26, after 22
selling days.
The most newsworthy aspect of
the 1960 selling season was the
“blue tag” law which was sus
pended two days after sales got
underway. An injunction kept
the out-of-state tobacco from be
ing tagged. The law’s legality is
still under court consideration.
GROWING PLANTS
FROM CUTTINGS
One of the common errors that
gardners make in attempting to
root cuttings is to make the cut
tings too long, according to Ger
ald Smith, Extension horticul
turist. He says that generally a
four to six inch length is desir
able. Longer stems are more dif
ficult to root. Remove all leaves
from the lower half of the cut
ting and none from the upper
half, he advises, because removal
of too many leaves will reduce
vigor of the young plant.
CHIPPING TREES FOR GUM
The chipping season in pine
gum production usually begins a
round the middle of March and
extends into October, varying
somewhat according to weather
conditions. Trees should be allow
ed to rest during the winter, say
foresters for the Agricultural Ex
tension Service.
