Farmers Urged To Follow
New Program in 1940
For More Cash
We wish the farmers of the
county would take more interest
in increasing their incomes by
diversifying the sources of this
income. There is no doubt in
our minds that this section of the
country is naturally adapted to
the production of cotton and we
would be very unwise to stop pro
ducing this crop for which nature
has so well planned us. But this
crop sells at one season of the
year and thus makes pay days too
far apart. Georgia farmers use a
great deal of other farm products
that we could produce with profit
and for which we are paying
farmers in other sections of the
country and very often we are as
well fixed by nature and other
wise to produce as are the sections
from which we buy. Especially
this true of pork, seed, beef and
poultry products.
The production of pork, seed
and beef may take extra
and equipment that would prevent
the general run of farmers from
placing them on their farm in
paying quantities, but poultry is
a source of income that may be
established on most farms at very
nominal costs. We do not have
in mind large commercial flocks of
^ ^ ^ ^ feut
rather think there is a wonderful
opportunity for a large number of
farmers to carry from 100 to 500
laying hens. The minimum profit
a Newton County farmer should

Subscribers Urged To Watch
News for Special

| ! Many merchants throughout
Covington announced this week
that Christmas buying iff already
underway and that various gifts
have already been ordered or put
away until “the day before.”
Several merchants commenting
on the early buying this year, were
surprised at the unusual interest
people were taking in selecting ex
actly what they wished. The cus
tomers were informed in several
stores that the articles they wished
haM not arrived, but would be in
within the next few days.
The “Shop Early’’ idea which
1he postoffice department always

honed to buy for Christmas and
that person must take what is left
a nd have difficulty in buying any
thing It is believed that anyone
seeking gifts at the last minute
,.-i!l have difficulty in finding just
w hat they desire, will pay more
for what they do buy and very
little argument can be
against the general knowledge that
;>,e best of gifts and merchandise
may be had by first shopping
the News and then at your store
“early.”
Many merchants, knowing that |
the buying oj gifts and personal
items has started unusually early
this year, have begun their adver
tising programs for Christmas and
will continue throughout the sea
