FSA FAMILIES TO TURN TO
WOODLOT FOR CASH INCOME
Georgia FSA farmers as well as
DONALSONVILLE NEWS IftUDAY. SEPTEMBER 26TH, 1941.
those of Region Five (Georgia, Ala
bama, Florida and South Carolina)
are turning toward the long neglected
woodlot for a new source of cash in
come, it was explained this week by
E. C. Young, state FSA director.
Folowing a survey showing that
less than three percent of the average
small farmer’s income comes from
forest products, the Farm Security
Administration has obtained the ser-
I vices of a specialist of the U. S. Bu
| reau of Forestry. Mr. Young announc

sell, working with the farm manage
ment section of the FSA regional
staff, will plan programs adaptted to
small farms in every part of the re
gion, with the aim of increasing the
income from sale of gum, pulpwoods,
posts, ties and saw timber to an av
erage of at least ten percent of the
■ total farm income.
■ “In Georgia,” Mr. Young said,
“there are untold woodland acres of
both small and large tracts on FSA
farmers of which few have ever been
turned into cash. Not only will the
small individual farmer be directed
to this new source of income, with
proper education in forest practices,'
but it is the aim of FSA also to en
courage operation of large tracts of
• woodland by groups of families work
ing cooperatively.”
Through development of the forest
program, the state director pointed
out, it is sought to find answer to the >
question of what to do with numerous
problem areas in the piney woods
area and in the lower Piedmont sec
tions, where old methods of fanning
have played out and where not only
families on the FSA program but
farm operators generally are hard
put to make a living.

County farmers raise their pig and
calf crops to meet expanding national
food needs, may depend in a large
part upon the kind of rations they
’ supply their breeding stock, according
to County Agricultural Agent Bill
: Brigham.
Rations well fortified with vitamins
and minerals are required for normal
reproduction, and vitamins A. E. and
I C have received most attention in re-
I lation to reproduction, reports the U.
S. Department of Agriculture.
Carotene, which is present in well
cured green hay, fresh green pasture
grass, well-made corn, grass, and le
; gume silage, and yellow varieties of
carrots, squash, and sweet potatoes,
is the principal source of vitamin A
which is very essential for reproduc
tion in all farm animals. Carotene,
J however, is rather rapidly destroyed
in feeds, especially under conditions
'of poor storage so precautions must
, be taken to provide adequate amounts
particularly to pregnant females.
As early as 1922, the vitamin E
factor was demonstrated to be neces
sary for reproduction of laboratory
animals such as the rat, but the need
for it in the diet of farm animals
other than poultry is still question
able. Most good rations, however, con
tain adequate vitamin E, and only
in unusual cases is it likely that ani
mals may be sterile because of a lack
of this vitamin.
Swch feeds as wheat bran, shorts,
linseed meal, hominy feed, white and
yellow corn, cottonseed meal, and kaf
fir are all good sources of “E”, as are
most of the common hay and pasture
crops.
FARM PEOPLE DERIVE MUCH
FROM VISIT TO FARM
WEEK IN ATHENS
Most of the visitors at Farm and
home Week in Athens last week have
gone to their respective homes with
something more than lots of new farm
practices—they saw and heard the
nation’s Secretary of Agriculture,
Claude R. Wickard, for the first time.
Agricultural leaders said this year’s
Farm and Home Week proved very
beneficial and that the estimated 5,-
000 farmers, farm women, and 4-H
club members in attendance at the
week’s sessions derived many new
ideas which they have carried back
home to put into practice.
Highlight of the week, of course,
was the visit and address of Secretary
Wickard, who was present for the de
dication exercises of the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration’s new
state office building on Tuesday.
Wednesday market the presentation
of awards to six Farm Families of
Georgia. In addition, Wednesday was
nutrition day and the entire program
of the visitors was centered about
the importance of producing and con
suming the right foods.
Thursday was farm organization
day. Several outstanding speakers
were on the program which was in
charge of the farm bureau. For the
farm women, Thursday’s program was
carried on by members of the State
Home Demonstration Council, while
members of the Master 4-H Club were
in charge of the youth activities.
The annual horse and mule show
came off on Friday. Great interest
was manifested. Also the 500 4-H
club members had charge of the spec
ial program for the day.
