FEEDING BEEF
CATTLE
Immense Herd is Pastured
Near City.
Farmers Oil Co. Will Soon Have Six
Hundred Beef Cattle Feeding on
the Riley Farm Near City-Will Be
Fattened for Markets.
The very profitable business of fat
tening cattle on cotton seed hull3
hich was conducted here so success
fully last winter by one of the Amer
icus oil mills, and which created in
terest throughout Georgia, is being
attempted again this season by
Farmers’ Oil Company.
Ioast season 600 head of cattle pur
chased In (South Georgia, Alabama and
Florida were hauled to Americus to
be fattened, and the result was won
derful.
These six hundred lean, hungry klne
were placed qpon a ten acre lot and
fed abundantly upon cotton seed meal
and hulls. They took on flesh rapid
ly and In a few weeks were rolling 1
fat and ready for the market.
These cattle were sold at top prices
in Americus, Macon and ether mar
kets. Many of them, fat steers and
dry milch cows suitable for beef were
Shipped to Birmingham and other cit
ies beyond the state line, and sold at
very excellent prices.
The Farmers’ Oil Company will once
more engage in fattening cattle for
market and to this end has vvurchas-
ed already about 500 bead of cattle,
and will put them on an exclusive feed
crt 'cotton seed meal arid hulls.
'About 150 head of cattle are In the
Inclosure today, while eight carloads
cf cows and steers will arrive tomor-
or next day and will go upon the
same fped.
The cattle eat the ljulls and meal
ravenously and within four weeks arc
ready for slaughter, seal fat and in
prime condition.
Aside from the fine profit to
company, the land upon which the vast
herd is pastured is made immense!
rich and fertile. Each season the
pasture is shifted from one locality tv
another, and in this way the Farmers
Oil Company will in a few years pos
sess the richest farm in Georgia and
at no cost whatever.
The herd this season will be quar
tered on the former Swedenborg farm,
mile Ijeyond the city limits on the
Am>ricus-Smlthvlllc road, where It at
tracts much attention from hundreds
who pass that -way every day.

AMERH'JJS GEORGIA.
The teachers of the white public
schools of Sumter met in monthly ses
sion in Americus on the 14th Inst with
ell nigh a full attendance. Supt.
W. S. Moor©; of the county school sys
tem, presided over the meeting.
After hearing the report of the sec
retary, Prof. Blackman discoursed on
Teaching the Arithmetic in the I liter-
mediate Grades.
Prof. A. R. Jordan gave a short
talk on “Teaching Spelling in the
Primary Grades.”
Several hours were spent fn discus
sion. It is the desire of the superin
tendent to make these meetings as
interesting and helpful r.s possible to
the teachers.
All teachers are urged to attend and'
lend their co-operation, the Board
Education makes it compulsory so that
all teachers mu3t attend, If not provl
dentially hindered.
The next meeting’will be held on
Saturday, February 18th, when the fol
lowing program will be rendered:
“Teaching English Grammar in the
Fourth Grades.” Discussions by Prof.
A. J. Clark and Mis3 Mabel Ander-
ing in the stock and poultry line.
The high prices of poultry and eggs,
the inability to supply the demand, and
the fact that the Industry Is one
considerable promise and profit in this
section, has lead the agricultural c
mittee to decide that special efforts
shall be made to draw attention to i
as one of the most promising side lines
of agricultural development for the
country ’round about Americus.
It has already been shown that
chickens Und other poultry thrive in
this section, that the climate, soil and
v\ater conditions are favorable to the
raising of them for market purposes.
Several fanciers in the county will
1<« position to make very attractive
displays at the fair, and there is no
doubt that fanciers elsewhere can be
induced to add to the exhibit and show
t?i<» finest In their Hues.
It is also proposed to have a dis
play of the bee industry. There are
several apiaries in the county, and It
has been found that the honey made
In Sumter takes., very high rank for
quality. Not only that, but the bees
seem to do well. *
While the production of honey will
always be a minor matter It is felt
that the attention of the wives and
acres heretofore devoted to this lua-
cius fruit will be transformed this
spring into blooming fields of cotton—
a crop that the late blizzard never
blights.
The Bagley-Ray Co., with its 250,-
000 peach trees is the largest peach
orchard in the world, and will so re
main, even when 50,000 trees arc
thus cut down.
The care of the orchard demands
the removal of these trees.
The ones that are thus marked for
destruction are the oldest trees
the Bagley-Ray orchard and many of
them, no doubt, are past the success
ful bearing age. Th 200,000 remain
ing trees will afford even more fruit
than can be handled successfully.

cotton, for the present, at least. Tne
lands—the finest level redlands of this
section are excellent adapted to cot
ton culture and the crops'of cotton
produced there will be worth more
than an uncertain peach crop.
The 300 acres thus changed from
peaches to cotton can be made to pro
duce 300 bales cotton, worth at pres
ent prices a total of $21,000.
