First of Series of Meeting Held
At Nunn Industrial School
With Tabor Present
The first of a series of a farm
ers’ conference was held Nov. t>
;>id 7 at the Nunn Industrial school
under the auspices of the State
hoard for Vocational Education and
the Extension Department of Geor
gia State College of Agriculture
( i-op< rated. These conferences
are called lor the object of organ
izing evening classes ji agriculture
for the adult negro farmers, that
giving them the opportunity to
inake a'study of farm jobs that go
lo make up the successful produc
tion of the agricultural enterpriser
carried on in the community.
Prof. Alva Tabor, itinerant
teacher and trainer, conducted the
con er< nee. On the first day which
' was oevoted to hearing’ of report;
.'rum the farmers, telling in their
ov,n v,ay. their successes or fail
ures v. ith their farming operation
miring the .year.
.4; as, brought out that on 210
: res s.hurled to cotton . t average
ci.on.y 52,38 pounds per acre was
made due, to failure of the farm
ers to employ combative methods
agaTist the boll weevil.
Out of the group of 40 or more
’only two men actually produced
cotton at a profit. Only one of
men used calcium of arse
and made a net profit of
on a two-horse farm.
It was most interesting to hear
many of the farmers say that milk,
buttpr,.poultry and eggs had been
their only source of income during
the year.
Cotton, corn, sweet potatoes,
b.ogs, poultry • ,id live stock were
v..e principal crops discussed. Later
it was decided that these were the
topics in which the farmers were
most interested and would like to
. devote sufficient time for receiving
systematic instruction of their eve
ning class which will he held every
Wednesday night under the diree
tio iiof the vocational agriculture
teacher, J. A. Coachman, and the
county farm and home demonstra
tioft agents, E. Stallworth and L.
I. Gaines.
Among the visitors were Col. J.
E. 1). Shipp, chairmna of the, coun
ty board of education; Supt. E. W.
Dupree end Mr. Price who repre
sented G. W. Nunn The domestic

ITCHING ECZEMA
DRIED RIGHT UP
BY THIS SULPHUR
Anv breakintj out of the skin, even
fiery,' itching eczema, can be quickly
overcome bv applying a little Mcntho-
Sulphur, says a noted skin specialist.
Because of its germ destroying proper
ties, this sulphur preparation instantly
brings ease from skin irritation, soothes
and'heals the eczema right up and
(leaves the skin clear and smooth.
L It seldom fails tp relieve the torment
and disfigurement. sufferers from s..
trouble should get a little jar of Kowle
Menthd-Sulphur from any good drug
gist and use it like a cold cicam.
