SOY BEANS
The two leading varieties for hay
La redo and the O-too-tan. The ex
tli-' these beans
.client results secured from
insure them of a permanent place in
any well balanced farm program. The
Georgia Railroad placed several dem
st rat ions with lavedo soy beans last
n
year, and every man with whom a dem
.lustration was placed was well pleased
with the results obtained. The highest
ield was made by 7 Mr. \Y. E. Wing
\
field. of Washington, Georgia. He plan
ted one gallon of seed, and harvested
slightly more than twenty-four bush
ols, which sold readily for ten dollars
per bushel.
The la redo is a sure seeder, matures
earlier than the O-too-tan, the hay is
slightly liner in texture, and is wilt
., distant. The two are about etpial in
,hc tonnage they will produce. If then
is any difference, we would say that
is in favor of the O-too-tan. in order to
divide the haying season, it is well to
plant some acreage of each of these
lu-ans. if laredoes are planted during
this month, a fair hay crop can lx- cut
from them by the first to the middle ot'
July Rue to the shortage of feed this
year, a hay crop at this time will
doubt prove to he very valuable.
There is hardly any crop that will

PASTURES
Now is the time to build or improve
lowland pastures, An excellent loyv
land pasture n»ay be had by sowing,
per acre, the, following mixture: 1" lb
Ipspedeza, 5 It. carpet grass, and 3—5
II, drtlUs grass. For further informa
tion call on the county agent, and feel
p-ee at all times to call on the Agricul
tural department of the Georgia
road.
PEANUTS
There arc two outstanding reasons
why it is well to consider planting some
acreage in peanuts for a money crop:
I. It has been conclusively
thst it is unsafe to depend entirely
upon cotton.
:: Peanuts have been proven to be a
practical and a profitable crop, well
mlapted to our climate and soil, and a
v.-iidy cash market for them is assured,
If interested in this crop, see your
county agent, who will tell you where
seed peanuts can be had at the lowest
price, also write Agricultural Depart-

SOUTHEASTERN FAIR
l Why not put Newton county the
on
; ! map by showing the world what our
county can produce? One n f the best
: ways of doing this is to have a credit
able county display at the Southeastern
Fair, and now is the time to begin plan

all pull together with our county agent
to make Newton the. Banner County of
Georgia.

“Why Does The Telephone i
5 Company Advertise” j \
1
HIS is a question frequently asked by tele
phone subscribers, by business men and by
public officials.
The chief reason is that it is the duty of a pub
lic servant, publicly owned and rendering a public ■
service, to keep the public fully informed about
its plans, its problems, its accomplishments, and
its ideals.
It is also in response to the natural interest
and pride of the public in a universal service in
which America leads the world.
In a human enterprise such as this so much
depends upon how' the subscribers use the service,
that it is incumbent upon us to keep them in
formed in the interest of the service as a whole.
Often There are problems and difficulties be
! yond our control and purely local conditions which
might disrupt the service unless we had the confi
dence of our subscribers.
To be of value to us, or to the public, our ad
vertisements must be frank and truthful. So all
our statements are brief and simple, avoiding any
thing that might prove misleading or confusing.
You do respond and strive to do your part
when we tell you truthfully and frankly all about
our affairs.
To reach you quickly and economically with
our message, in the interest of efficient and con
tinuous public service; to preserve cordial rela
tions with you—
That is why we advertise. i
