PLANS PROGRESS
FOR STATE MEET
OCT. 7 AT MACON
Large Number of Delegates
Will Attend From Every
County in State
40 VOTERS NAMED
TO ATTEND MEETING
FROM THIS COUNTY
Senator Richard B. Russell
Will Be One Of
Speakers
In response to their leader’s cal)
to make it “a great convention,”
Georgians in all sections are
ing forward with plans to make
the state gathering of Democrats
in Macon on October 7 an
marking occasion. It will be an
event historic and precedent set
ting from the standpoint of har
mony and enthusiasm; an event
that will impress the nation with
the unreserved loyalty of the
pie of Georgia for Franklin
no Roosevelt and for the New Deal
in this state, decreed by the vot
ers in the primary of September 9.
Congressman E. E. Cox of Ca
milla will be the temporary chair
man and keynoter of the conven
tion, and Governor-designate E. D.
Rivers has chosen his college mate
and staunch supporter of Demo
cratic principles, Charles S. Reid,
Atlanta lawyer, as the permanent
chairman of the convention and
the new state executive commit
tee. Delegates have been selected
from virtually every county, and
details of the convention plans are
being completed rapidly.
Following is a list of delegates
from Newton cuonty who have
been chosen to attend the Macon
^ Democratic .. convention: ..

The new chairman is widely
knowm and popular, recognized as
a man of marked ability and high
principles. It is generally con
ceded that Mr. Rivers could not
have made a happier choice of a
man who will be more universally
approved for the chairmanship o
the state committee. After gradu

AGRICULTURAL
NEWS GIVEN BY.
COUNTY AGENT
Urges Planting of Small Plot
Of Crimson Clover
At Start
EXPECT COMPLETION
OF MEASURING LAND
IN NEXT FEW DAYS
Recommends Keeping Some
Sheep on Each Farm
In County
We have contacted several far
mers recently who are planning to j
sow a seed patch of crimson clo-,
ver. The common error that most j
farmers want to make, in our
opinion, is their desire to sow too
large an acreage to begin with.
The crop is new to us and fairly
expensive to get started with and
we should begin on a small scale
with an extra fertile piece of land.
This will enable us to study the
characteristics of the new crop,
and enable us to adapt our system
of farming so that we will be able
to handle it in the regular eourse
otf pur farming activities. We
would urge the largest farmers to
sow only a seed patch. Our iaea
is to sow fifty pounds of seed on
an extra fertile piece of land and
in the future save the seed and in
crease the acreage and never buy
another seed. It can be done very
easily.
Most of the committeemen are
making good progress on measur
ing land under the farm program
and we anticipate the completion
of this work vtithin a short time.
We find from talking with the
committees that some few fatun
ers do not have sufficient soil
conserving crops to qualify them
for diversion of cotton acreage.
In such cases a farmer may qual
ify now by sowing winter legumes
on crop land before October 31 or
by sowing non-legumes such as
irye on idle land by that date. Be
sure to use such legumes as clo
ver, Austrian peas or hairy vetch,
if you are sowing in crop land
such as cotton or corn land. If
you have a sufficient acreage of
land that is "laying out’* you may
sow this land to rye or other non
legume crop and qualify.
We see quite a bit of agitation
in the papers regarding the rais
ing of sheep in Georgia. We be
lieve a few sheep on nearly every
farm would be profitable as they
will live on feed and pasturage
that is generally insufficient for
other types of livestock. But you
cannot have sheep where there are
stray dogs. A few days ago we
saw a cow' on Mr. R. E. Lee's farm
suffering from rabies contracted
from a bite by a stray dog. In
our opinion there is quite a large
number of worthless dogs in this
other counties that should be
destroyed . In so many cases
their owners need the feed that
the dogs get for their hogs,
Worthless dogs are a men ace to
jjvestock and a potential menace
to our hea]th . carrying rabies,
rj^gy certain^ pm destructive l*
; our game
j Begin ncw to sow oat3 and try
to finLgh the job by October 15th.
Treat your geed for smut .
Qne ounce of f orma idehyde witlf
two gallons of wa ter. This is
sufficient to treat ten to twelve
bushels. Spread the oats out on|
a tight floor, sprinkle the solution
over them, being careful to keep
the grain stirred so that every seed
is moistened. Pile and cover with
a sheet for four hours. They are
(.hen ready to sow and will be free
from smut. This treatment will
rog ^ ]egs than one C g nt per bushel
and wdll absolutely control smut.
The corn crop is short and oats
will make the ’earliest grain crop i
next year of any erop you bar-1
plant. Sow early so you will
vest early. Sow the best land
you have.
It is mighty nice to go to mijl

48 DROUGHT
SUFFERERS WORK
On County Roads as Part Of
Government Program
Of Drought Relief
Approximately 48 Newton coun
ty farmers who suffered from the
drought this year are now work
on the roads in the county.
{This is part of the government’s
project to afford relief to drought
districts.
They are working at various
places in the county where work is
needed most. It is thought that
in a few weeks more men will be
added and work will be general
throughout the county. Mr. Ike
Robertson, county commissioner,
stated that he would place men to
work as soon as authority is re
ceived from Washington. These
men are employed by the govem
ment and turned over to Mr. Rob
He has no authority to
hire additional men. All men
seeking employment under the
drought relief must apply to the
proper authorities.

EMORY AT OXFORD
OPENS WITH GAIN
IN ENROLLMENT
129 Students Report During
Freshman Week At
Oxford
TWO NEW MEMBERS
ADDED TO FACULTY
OF OXFORD SCHOOL
Five States and Three Foreign
Countries Represented
In Student Body
Emory Junior College at Ox
ford opened for registration on
Monday morning with the largest
enrollment of freshmen since the
college was changed to a junior
qf^lgjes. ' One hundred and twenty
students registered the first week
and it is expected that around six
ty sophomores will register next
week, making a total of almost
two hundred students who will be
at Emory at Oxford this year.
The students are registering
from five states and three foreign
countries. Six are from Cuba,
one from Costa Rica and one from
Peru. The states of Alabama,
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and
North Carolina are represented in
the studeut body. The largest
number of students from any state
with the exception of Georgia is
from Florida. Thirty students
have registered from Florida this
year to compare with eight or ten
last year.
Rev. Claude Haynes has been
the speaker at chapel exercises
every day this week. Rev. Haynes
is also conducting a revival ser
vice for the students each night
at the Allen Memorial church.
Two additions have been made
to the faculty, and Dean George
Roach is Weil satisfied with the
prospects in store for this year.
Many improvements have been
made on the campus and in the
various buildings. Tierce Hail,
one of the dormitories, has been
completely remodeled and reopen
ed this year, after being closed for
several years.
The excellent academic work and
discipline under’Dean Roach is the
main factor which has contributed
to the increase of the enrollment.
It is believed that capacity enroll
ments will be the order of the day
in Emory at Oxford from now on.
