RIVERS EXPRESSES
THANKS TO VOTERS
Will Undertake to Bring:
About “More Abundant”
Life in Georgia.
Pledging himself to work for
“an era of greater progress and
more abundant life to Georgia,”
Speaker Ed Rivers, as one of his
first acts following his nomination
as governor in the Democratic pri
n ary, issued a statement thanking
the press of the state and tne
voters of Georgia.
“It is gratifying,” he said, “to
v T that the farmers and others
■ the ru-al communities,—cal':
I the country people of Geor
I i if you will, and I am one of
,
j h -i are loyal to a great cause.”
Characteristically modest, Mr.
Rive: a, in this, as in all h's state
aent viewed his triumnh at the
,
polls as an endorsement of de
! mocracy, rather than a pe-sonal
victory. “The votes for me,” he
said, were votes for the great
uimanitarian program of the
Democratic administration.”
“It is a glorious victory the
Democratic party has won in
Georgia,” he said, “and I know
President Roosevelt is happy to
know how his southern home is
solidly with him.
“It is gratifying to me to know
how the voters of Georgia feel: to
know that the backbone of Geor
gia is stronger than ever before
I want to thank these people and
thank the weekly and sma’ler
dailies which have so courageously
and intelligently supported a great
cause.
“I shall not forget a single plank
in my platform and shall devote
myself to trying to bring about an
em. c>f greater prosperity and

NEWS GIVEN BY
COUNTY AGENT
Recent Rains Have Put The
Ground in Good
Condition.
WARNING IN REGARD
TO USING ARTIFICIAL
LEGUME INOCULATION
Some June Cotton Seems to
Be Going to Make Bale
To The Acre.
The recent rains have put the
soil in good condition from a mois
ture standpoint for the seeding of
winter cover crops such as Crim
son Clover, Austrian Winter Peas
and Hairy Vetch. We would sug
gest sowing as early as possible
now so as to allow the crops to get
a good root system before the
heavy freezes. The best dates as
ecommended by the Auburn,
Alabama Experiment station and
the Tifton Station is October 1st.
We would like to give you a
word of warning when using arti
mcial inoculation for winter le
gumes, The bacteria contained
:n tijis culture is easily killed by
light and the direct rays of the
sun. Apply the inoculation to the
seed in the shade and sack the
seed immediately. While the
seed are being planted, they should
be well covered with damp sacks
and the cover to the planter should
e kept tightly closed if the plant
r has no cover, then a damp
uck should be kept over the top
J as to project the seed while
h eing sown.
If you want to sow some Crim
son Clover, you may get the seed
’ocally from R. R. Fowler, Jr., or
H. F. George. Mr. George lives
ibove Oxford, near Butler’s gin.
He had excellent results from his
ast year's seeding and will have
more seed to sell than he needs
to plant back.
W'e have seen some cotton re
cently that came up in June that
we believe will make a bale to
the acre. On the other hand we
have been In some fields of the late
cotton that looks good from the
road, but when you examine the
stalks closely you find that very
,: .ttle fruit is there and sometimes
a stalk shoulder high will be ab
solutely barren. The crop for
Georgia is estimated at 982,000
bale® as compared to 1,059,000
bales last year and 968,000 bales
in 1934. Our opinion is that New
ton county is off more in produc
tion than this estimate indicates
the state will be. The com crop
estimate for the state shows an
indicated yield of about 2,000,000
bushels less than last year and at
that it is expected to be above the
five year average.
The experimental results of
seeding and dates of seeding for
small grains at the College of Ag
riculture for the past 5 years in
dicate that, the greatest yields are
obtanied in wheat sowing by
planting October 15 using 1 bushel
of seed per acre and not over 2
bushels. The highest oat yields
were obtained by seeding October
15th using 2 bushels of seed per
acre. The planting of 6 pecks of
seed per acre and the planting of
10 pecks approached the 8 peck
seeding in yield, but was variable
from year to year and did not
give the net results that 2 bushels
did.
Regardless of what date you
seed your grain, be sure to treat
all seed for smut. The cost is
cheap, little effort is required and
very often treatment will mean
io per cent or more increase in
production. We have seen oats in
this county during the past two
year s that were damaged more
than 50 per cent by smut.
The Southeastern Fair will begin
October 4th, and run for a week.
just after this the Newton county
F a j r w in open. Prospects are for
both fairs to have some excellent
exhibits. A fair is an excellent
place to measure yourself by your
neighbors and meet old friends

FAIR WILL BEGIN
ON OCTOBER 12TH
Educational Features Will Be
Featured at Fair This
Year.
DEVELOPMENT OF SOIL
AND PROPER PLANNING
WILL ALSO BE FEATURE
Good, Clean Shows Have Beer
Contracted With To
Show Here.
The Newfn County Fair, which
will begin October 12th-17tn, is
pi an m n g the best fair ever and
all indications are for fine results.
The educational features of this
year will surpass any fair yet with
the schools displaying many of the
new and up-to-date educational
features. The agriculture pro
gram will cover many of the new.
modern methods of improving the
many features of the farm m!
rural communities. The live stock
program as outlined by the exten
sion department of agriculture
will be shown in many details as
well as pointing to the future for
the possiiblities of the wonderful
development possible with the
proper planning and working to
gether for the certainty of farm
life. Many other interesting
features in line with progress and
attractive displays of the new and
modern methods will be seen at
the fair. Let everyone take a
little time to keep the wheels of
time rolling in a modern and for
ward move by visiting the fair
and lending a helping hand to
make the Newton county Fair
keep its place. The counties that
''nve abandoned a fair have al
ready allowed themselves to be
placed far down the line. Remem
her no community can prosper as
it should without occasionally dis
playing its prorgess and mingling
as neighbors towards one goal for
the betterment and welfare of our
community.
The fair has a real amusement
comapny this year in the J. J.
Page Shows, a show that many
fairs have spent plenty money to
be sure of the fine quality of this
show. Lots of fun, good clean
amusement and shows and free
acts that w411 entertain and bene
fit you. The children will like the
fair this year as many details are
being planned for fun and educa
tion for them. Remember the
one purpose of the Fair Associa
tion is for the better and forward
Newton County Community.
