Preparing for An Emergency.
The boll weevil will reach Geor
gia about 1912. Anthracnose and
the wilt disease an* destroying
millions of dollars worth of
cotton for Georgia farmers each
year. The cattle tick holds in
check the development of our live
stock industries. The methods of
fertilization and cultivation now
pursued tend to lessen the crop
yielding power of our soils. Our
failure to select seed corn and cot
ton results in reducing instead of
increasing the yields obtained. A
serious situation confronts us.
There are millions of dollars at
stake. The prosperity of the state
hangs in the balance. The future
of the lives of thousands of boys
and girls is involved in the issue.
The place of Georgia among the
states of the Union is being
weighed.
Realizing the momentous char
acter of the issues involved and
the prize at stake, the College of
Agriculture has organized a cot
ton school and stockman’s short
course to teach farmers how to
overcome these difficulties, it
will take but ten days to secure
eighty hours of definite instruc
tion and demonstration concern
ing these vital matters. It will
cost from sls to $25.
Mr. Farmer are you going to at
tend this short course and broad
en your point of view, become a
farmer, advance the
welfare of your family, increase
youi earning capacity, build up
your lands, and make your state
ermanently prosperous? “Do
not put off until tomorrow what
you can do today” is one of the
best axioms our civilization has
developed. Prepare yourself to
successfully meet the issues which
changed conditions have imposed
on Georgia agriculture. You can
not escape them but you can cir
cumvent them by skill and defi
nite knowledge which science and
agricultural training and educa
tion alone provide.
Appeal to Customers.
The recent fire, which entailed
■uch a heavy loss upon me in my
Millinery business, has placed upon
me the extra heavy burden of re
placing my stock of goods, and for
that purpose, 1 shall badly need all
the money I can raise.
So all my kind patrons who are
indebted to me will greatly favor
and aid mein rebuilding my burned
business by making immediate pay
ment.
Yours gratefully,
Miss Blanche Wentzell.
