THE COVINGTON NEWS, COVINGTON, GEORGIA, FARMERS’ WEEK TABLOID INFORMATION FOR BUSY FARMERS. “This Is a day of concentrated effort. The farmer is just as busy as the rest of society. It is essential, therefore, that the information he needs be put up in tabloid form so that large doses can be takv n in a short time and di¬ gested at leisure.” So said Dr. A.i irew M. Soule, President, when re ently called on by your correspondent Cor some suggestions relative to the program which the State College of Agriculture will put on for “Farmers’ Week” January 24-29. “Our Agriculture lias seldom faced «t more trying economic situation than will prevail in 1921. Our 250 county igents and the members of the resident teaching staff have been thinking over .he situation and they have worked out 1 program which they believe will best .nsure our farmers against undue loss s in 1221 , help to put our agriculture back on a remunerative basis, and help the farmer bridge ov’er the difficult situation by which he is confronted. To this end the instruction which will be offered during “Farmers’ Week” has been organized along unique linen. Only subjects of immediate concern to the farmer and which can be treated in a practical and up-to-date manner will be considered. “The old style method of lecturing will be replaced by the demonstration process. In other words, those attend¬ ing “Farmers’ Week” will he given a practical insight into the use and ap¬ plication, for instance, of calcium ar¬ senate as a dust spray to kill the boll weevil. Living at horffe will be em¬ phasized as strongly* as possible, also the necessity of having a garden, keep¬ ing a cow, establishing a flock of chickens, and raising some hogs on grazing crops. Morever, the methods of procedure involved in these under¬ takings will be illustrated and detailed in a most practical fashion. Other de¬ monstrations will relate to the killing and curing of the farm meat supply,, and the production, finishing and grad¬ ing of market hogs. One of the fea¬ tures of the course will be a beef and dairy cattle judging contest. An in¬ timate study of the pasture grasses and forage crops adapted t» Georgia will be made. The question of handling soils so as to maintain and increase fertility will be discussed, and there will be demonstrations in the pruning and care of the home orchard and the estimation of timber in the farm wood lot. The course will wind up with a big tractor and implement demonstra¬ tion on the last day. Marketing and listribution problems will come in 'or their share of attention. Various phases of this subject affecting the welfare of Georgia farmers at this time will be taken up and elucidated. “Remember this is a free course put on for the sole purpose of furnishing the farmers of Georgia with the latest available information in the most con¬ cise and practical manner possible. There never was a time when it was more important to put into use the very latest and best Information which can be obtained. Last year when times were prosperous the 160 farmers who attended “Farmers’ Week” were elated over the nature of the instruction of¬ fered. If this course proved so help¬ ful under the conditions which exist¬ ed in 1920 certainly no farmer can af¬ ford to miss the opportunity which has been provided for 1921.” FATHER OF 34 DELUGED WITH LETTERS OF PRAISE Spinster in Tennessee Writes His Wife: “I Envy You” Raleigh, N. C., 1 Jan. 9.— Since the Associated Press gave nation-wide publicity to the fact that Reuben Bland of KobersonviHe, Beaufort county, was the proud father of 34 children, Mr. and Mrs. Bland have been deluged with letters from persons from all over the United States and Canada. The letters are from both women and men, one writer admitting she was a spinster. Excerpts from a few of the letters follows: A *man from Ohio writes: “I read the story about your family aloud to my wife.. ‘There’s a man who ought to be given a medal,’ I told her. ‘There's a man who ought to be hang¬ ed;' she retorted.” A writer in Oregon sent this: “Reuben. Reuben, I am thinking, “You are a right nifty man. 1 “To your health I am dfinking, “You have done what few men can.” From Navarre. Ohio, Mr. Bland re¬ ceived this: I’m the father of eight childz-en and I have an awful time keeping them in fqpd and clothing. I’ve worried a whole lot but since reading about your big family, I realize that I’m a lucky guy.” A spinster in Tennessee wrote Mrs. Bland: „ “What a pit; that more women could not know the joys of having such a fine family.
