I ONE PRICE HOUSE Prominent Speakers Will Be Here The Itinerant Agricultural School will be here this week and it gives us pleasure to an- uounce to the farmers and bush ness men of this and adjoining counties that the State College of Agriculture is sending for this meeiing p large number of its best speakers. Prof. W. A. Worsham, Jr., will appear first discussing the relative cost and sources of the essential elements of plant lood. The preservation and uses of manures is a live topic since any system of permanent agriculture must have live stock as its basis. There i3 a great loss through the improper handling of manure. Pres. A. M. Soule will handle the fertilizer problem in a way which should enable any farmer to Know how to cope intelligently with the fertilizer dealer and the latter should not lose this chance to learn the needs of the farmer and the changes that are almost inevitable if he does not get in touch with the educational wave which is sweeping over the cour try. Every one connected in any way with the handling of commercial fertilizers should be present to hear Pres. Soule. He will lecture Friday alternoon, February 25th. Cotton improvement is ably handled by Prof. Nixon. The general interest in the cotton plant should bring out a number ot questions from our tarmeis A spirited discussion often reveals many important facts which a lecturer does not bring out in the short time allowed on the program. Much good intorma- tion will be disseminated in the hoo&lectnre devoted to cotton. Df, A. G. G. Richardson, the College Veterinarian, will be here to diagnose and prescribe for all ailments and diseases of the horse, cow, hog and sheep. His services will be entirely free to anyone attending the meeting. If you have animals troubled with any ot tho following ail ments; digestive troubles, skin troubles, external parasites, lameness, teeth disorders, stom* ach worms, lung worms, hog cholera, shipping fever or milk fever, bring them to town or come to the meeting where Dr. Richardson will tell you how to treat ihem. The present high prices of living should cause evt ry familv in Georgia to grow their own vegetables. Prof. S. A. Minear has made a specially of trucking crops and will sho v you how and when to plant; you should know why without being told. He will conduct a demonstration in pruning and tell about spray ing tor the many injurious insects which are troubling the garden er and grower. There will be few times that a veterinarian is nBededif our farm animals are judiciously fed. Mal nutrition is the chief cause of digestive troubles and can be avoided by knowing how to combine the foods available to the Southern farmers . It is said that a horse, cow, pig and sheep together will excrete $60 worth ot manure every year. This value may be doubled or cut into half depending largely upon the kind of feed used. Successful corn and cotton growing seems to depend upon manure for max imum results. Prof. Hite will give three lectures on feeding farm animals and discuss seed corn improvement and a suitable rotation tor the live stock tarmer. Farm building will be given some attention by these lecturers. The morning session will be gin at 9 =30, afternoon session at 1:15, and night session at 8:co; something of great importance will take place at every session.
