Belcw we giv< soriie of the ad-
vantagea_ to be obtained by being
menu er‘of the Grady County
Live Stock Association ajad.what
may be gained by having a per
fected organization in our county.
In going about this let us be
fair minded arid'reasoriable and
run. things in a. Systematic' way..
Naturally in making, ipvestiga-.
•ions about if, the first filing, you
want toknowig: • - . .
Who.-is'the Grady County Asso •
liatipn? .Who-niris.it. and - who
wiLl be most benefltted thereby?.
■ It is an" organization for the
production of . better ; live 'stock,
oetter farms, retter schools, bet-
er roads, better farms, 'for in
creasing your .bank balance .or
making one for you. -J
Who. are the officers and what
io they do? They are farmers,
actively 'engaged in farming.
Whp'-w.ill.be mostly benefltted by
it?, The meriibers who are active
ly engaged -in. the organization
and' who put the most, into it'willf,
get the most from ic.
Why the. need of being togetli-;
jr in the work? Could hot I 'do
as well by myself? The fact, that
you have been working alone for
the past ten years without aecom-
plishing much .-is- sufficient' evfe
'dence-that you .need the .many ad
vantages o'f-the association- arid;
now is the Opportune time'in, life
to get together. Everybody pull.
Throw pway your harrimerarid-
buy a horn and keep it continual
ly blowing for yourself, Grady
county and the association.
Among other advantages are,'
when an organization goes in for
a.fhing the right way they cah ob
tain more arid get it quicker than
each' individual could working
alone. ' •
What more does the organiza
tion .nffipose to do for its mem
bers? A
As -wehave an idealclimate for
stock raising, they will make sys
ematir; investigations as to the
best and cheapest food for the
different animals. They will find
the feed best adapted to your soil
and what .to plant for the differ
ent seasons so you .may have
abundant grazing, facilities the
year round. And increase .the
number of pounds of grain for
the amount of labor and .money,
invested,. • '• .
They will also tell you the best
time and -method of harvesting
/out forage crop, how they must
be stored and the proper mix^
to make a balanced ration,! at?
unless you feed a balanced ration
you lose part of your.profit, What,
is a balanced ration? . It is • one
where the proper amount of Pro
tein, carbohydrates, dry matter
and fat in the proper.proportions
to insure rapid gain at the least
cost. Why not join? They will
will also tell you, how to care for
your barnyard manure; how to
feix.it: to the best advantage.
Buying commit toe. They have
a buying committee that you can
jo to when-you need,help.. They
will' help you. to get what you
want-at the lowest possible figure,
They will be posted on when
where arid what to buy, whether
ic be a horse, bull of pig.. These
fellows are live wires. They are
experienced in the business and
are anxious to help you.
Selling cornmittee. They Will
aid you in disposing of your pro
ducts atjthe best price. They will
je posted on all .markets, when
Hid' where and what to sell
Here’s a good point: You come
-o town with a load of meat; .cur
ind cured haphazard. You take
vhat you are offered, usually in
rade. If you. belong to the asso
nation they tell you how to curt
and'cut your meat. Then on
certain day we can get togetnei
ind load out several cars of uni
formly cut and cured meat. The
lifference in price will soon buy
/ou an auto.
The association aims to stand
irdize all farm products in order
.will notify you when they expect
to market* certain product in ad’*
vance flo you w.ilj be ready.
■■Educational; committee.. This
o.bnjrtiittee.tfill provide you with
bulletins on any subject you wish
to know abput and any • other in
ipr/nafion you may require about
yorir crops fed stocks. .They are
anxious to co-operate with you ir\
every:-,way,; ■
Well ladies, you have' been pa
dent, we have a Social Committee
to arrange dinners -and outings
for you. We 'want' you to come

Among other things the Asso-

Those of you who are iamiliai
with history, remember the For
ty Miners who went to the West
Coast during the gold feve. They
went with light hearts and un
tiring, spirits. A few of then-
made good, butmost of then
came away disappointed, but not
Vyithdut desire ; to. become more
prosperous, to have better homes,
better schools arid . churches. Ir.
their path they trod over millions
of acres of fertile. pararie land,
not dreaming of its wonderful
possibilities, but on their return
they settled along in the middle
west and began stock farming
ind’fruit growing, they were
persistent-arid; energetic. They
investigated, they planned anc.
studied their crops condition .anc
markets. • In the mean time rail
roads were'built to ^handle' theii
produce, villages sprang up and
in a few years grew up to bt
cities.
.The fartherest country in the
world in practically every line o'
business, the best system of
schools, the best class and mosi
independent people on earth, .art
the descendants of these middle
western families. IIovv did thej
do it? By pulling together. The
sfery of the Fcrty-Niners is his
tory, but the story of the pi-ogres
sive organizea farmer still stands
as a beacon to show you the way-
South Georgia has the middle
more natural resources, a bettei',
longer climate fpr grazing, more
rainfall, ji'ist'ias good land, should
•be made "even better'than theirs,
and we can .create just as good
mr.rkets. ' \ . '
When -you- join-, be active. .Get
others in, . We want* every far-,
mer we eail get.in the association.
Don’t think stock ' raising is a
fad that will wear off .because Ja
