DONALSONVILLE NEWS Established February, 1916. Entered as second class matter February 12. 1916, at the post office at Donalsonville, Georgia under the act of March 3. 1879. ELLISON DUNN, editor-owner Official organ of Seminole County and the City of Donalsonville, Georgia. SUBSCRIPTION RATES One Year SI.OO Six Months .50 MEMBER: National Editorial Association Georgia Press Association i Advertising Rates Reasonable And Furnished On Request Patrons of the Donalsonville post office would certainly ap preciate some new post office boxes. The present boxes are out of date, in bad repair and are not in keeping with the progress of the town. The present boxes are easily opened without the com binations and furnish little pro tection to the patrons. Lock box es, with keys, would be much more suitable. 0 It begins to look like Gover nor Talmadge has dusted off his “This Way Out” sign and has it ready to nail on Treasurer Ham ilton’s door quicker’n you can bat an eye if he so decides. 0 Next week marks the begin ning of oyster season and there ;are plenty of folks who are very fond of this fine sea delicacy on the half shell. Some, however, do not relish them until cold weather, but as for us, we’ll take ’em any day in the year, iioine of the best we ever push ed a molar through were in July and August. I ATTENTION PEANUT GROWERS With favorable weather conditions for next 30 days, we are al most certain of another good bumper crop of peanuts that can be sold at higher prices, provided these peanuts are HARVESTED and CURED properly. ~... You will have two types of peanuts, EDIBLE PEANUTS and OIL PEANUTS. Both of these type peanuts will be bought on GRADE, there fore if a Farmer is growing Oil Peanuts, it will certainly pay him to sell S 2, No. 3 or low grade Oil Stock Pea ket for his crop. !ater care than ever will be used in •ing the Peanut Crop. With the Gov ill probably be some delays in getting Grower to take sufficient time in get & Elevator Company le, Georgia / acts Company le, Georgia The sentence of Private John] Habinyak for insubordination' was reduced this week from ten years and nine months to three: years by the war department. Had the Habinyak offense been handed a light punishment, dis cipline in the army would have fallen to a low rate, and our country would have been in grave peril. Orders must be obeyed without question and like offenders must be punished se verely to maintain good discip line. An officer in uniform is just another American citizen, but the uniform he wears com mands respect. O If you are doubtful that Don-' alsonville is growing, a glimpse at the 1906 photo of Donalson ville owned by Mrs. J. L. Dick enson will suffice. At that time Donalsonville was the proud i owner of three brick stores and a half dozen wooden business houses. Tall pines grew on the main streets and only a few homes were noted. In 35 years there have been quite a few' changes, Donalsonville develop-; ing into one of the busjnest com-' munities in Southwest Georgia.! And in the past 10 years the population has shown a gain of seventy-five per cent, and the town continues to grow. O The Ux bill now pending be-; fore the U. 8. Senate will soon remind us all that there’s a| small matter of defense expense to be paid. —O- = Russia’s Joseph Stalin talks with an air of confidence over the outcome of the Russo-Ger man conflict. It’s quite sweet ■ music to our ears. Trees to be removed in thining should be the least valuable and the more slow-growing species. DONALSONVILLE NEWS FRIDAY, AUGUST 29TH, 1941.

GROWERS HAVE UNTIL OCTOBER ITO REPAY _ 1938-10 LINT LOANS , Georgia growers will have until October J to repay outstanding loans i and redeem cotton pledged under the, 1938, 1939 and 1940 loan programs, ' ' Grady Woods, chairman of the Semipole county AAA committee, an i nounced this week, After October 1, Mr. Woods said, i I unredeemed cotton will be placed in! i pools, as provided by the loan agree- ■ ments, and sold by the Commodity i Credit Corporation, with the produc j ers receiving the net proceeds, if any, ■ after deduction of all advances and apcrueii costs, including storage, in surance, and handling charges.

I producer at the time his cotton is] placed In the pool, and individual ( ' producers will not be entitled to or- I der the sale of the particular cotton ' which he placed in the pool. Sales of pooled stock will not be made prior to March 1, 1942. Rising prices since February and March, he said, have made it profit able for producers to redeem loan cot ton, and repossessions have mounted especially since late May, after the enactment of 85 percent of parity loan legislation. Loans on about 20,000 bales of 1938- 39 and 1939-40 cotton from Georgia farms are now outstanding, the Com modity Credit Corporation reports. Close grazing and frequent cutting close to the ground will gradually kill out bushes and briars in the pasture, according to Extension agronomists. If seed are to be saved, Extension workers say that lespedeza sericea should be cut when the seeds are a bout mature. DIVORCE GEORGIA, Seminole County: Gladys Williams Buckins Vs. J. P. Buckins.
