that many of these crops will be
planted in two weeks intervals so as
to afford a succession of vegetables

ber:
Sweet Potatoes —Planted until July 1.
Harvest at frost and
store. Recommend
central storage
plants.

15 to August 1. Fall

i The Home Garden
T. H. McHatton, Prof. of Horticulture,
State College of Agriculture.
Never before m the histoiy of this
country has the home garden been
of more vital importance to the w• 1
fare of the nation than at this par¬
ticular time. This is not the time
lo plow up the home garden and plant
it in cotton. The farmers with the
large home garden should be able to
produce sufficient supplies for the
family for the whole year.
Where the garden is large, enougn
Irish potatoes and sweet potatoes
should be made for the winter use-.
The ever-present Georgia collard
should be on hand in great abundarce
this year; cabbages should be a prom¬
inent fall crop; turnips also should
be in the fall garden, if one has not
planted carrots in the spring, carrots
should be planted in the late summer
or early fall for winter use. In most
sections of Georgia salsify or oyster
plant planted now or later in the sum¬
mer will remain in the ground and
can be used all along. The abund¬
ance of tomatoes and string beans,
and other vegetables that demand
warm weather for their maturity
should be put into cans. There is uot
a woman in Georgia who should not
try to put up and can all of the vegeta¬
bles of various kinds that she expects
'o use on her table during the fail,
winter and early spring months. Any
woman who overlooks this at this
time cannot be considered a patriot.
Canned goods of all kinds are going to
be extremely high this year, even if
the war is over. It is a man’s place
about the home to see that enough
stuff is raised so that the good woman
will have it to can. The home gaiMen
is going to be the most valuable small
piece of ground on the farm, and any
one who neglects it this season is cap¬
able of “selling his birthright for a
mess of pottage.”
Fall Irish Potatoes
H. McHatton, Protestor of Horti¬
culture, Stats Collogo of Agrt.
Tha farmers of northern Georgia
•hould lay their plans to put in a
large crop of fall Irish potatoes, if
transportation is tied up this fall and
winter, it will not be possible for us
to call on Maine and the other pota¬
to producing states for our supplies.
They will have to be produced at
home. The North Georgia farmer can
make a good fall Irish potato crop;
and if the farmers of this section will
give this matter due consideration
we should be able to produce in our
mountain sections enough potatoes
to carry Georgia through until the
spring crop comes in from the south¬
ern portion of the state. This is
the time to show to the rest of the
country what the mountain soils of
Georgia can do.

SUMMER SCHOOL.
In connection with the anmmnce
nont of excursion fares to Athens oc
■ount Bniversity of Georgia Summer
School in July, it is of special Interest
to note that special courses have been
arranged to meet the present national
situation.
A special faculty of over 100 trained
experts in the various courses of study
have been assembled and in all more
than 150 courses will be available.
There is to he a sjtecial week of
rural life problems and the study of
high school work will also be gone in¬
to thoroughly.
Socially and intellectually, the se¬
ries of Chautauqua entertainments
now being booked promise much for
the amusement and instruction of
those who attend.
The success of the summer school
increases each season. Last year
there were more than 100 taehers in
attendance.
Athens' healthful climate, the low
railway fares and the fact that stu¬
dents may live economically while
pursuing their studies, combine to
make the school popular throughout
the South.

DO YOU OWN A "ONE YEAR” CAR?
PAY $500 MORE AND GET A QUALITY
GAR. $1350 BUYS A CHALMERS.
In going over our records a few days ago we found that 80 per
cent of the men who had bought Chalmers cars this year previously
owned Jjpne year 45 cars. ~ ~ •
I lease pardon us for using a technical term such as “one year’
cars. It is a name that has grown up among automobile salesmen
and service men. It means, briefly, a car that looks well when new,
runs well when new, but peters out towards the end of its first vear. I
10,000 miles is long life for the “one year” car.
Chalmers has never sought the “one year” car trade. Chalmers
has always sought the quality trade.
Perhaps that fact explains our sales records. It evidently shows A
a rather decided tendency towards a better car, and we feel compli*
mented naturally, that the trend is toward Chalmers.
Our advice, could we only get hold of those who are buying their
first car, would be to pay $500 more and get quality.
hor w hat is worse than a cheap pair of shoes, a cheap hat, cheap
food or cheap jewelry ?| •
Quality you never forget. By the way, have you ever sat behind
the wheel of a Chalmers?
