Don’t "Faze ” Him
GAINESVILLE—Mertin Bishop,
of Gainesville, could probably
walk under a ladder with a brok*
en mirror in his hand without
flinching. For this gentleman ac«
cepted the phone number 1313 re
cently and asked for two ebony
felines besides. “Okeh, put ’er in,"
said Mr. Bishop when the operator
told him that the unlucky number
was available, "and how aboul
throwing in two black cats with
it. I’m not in the least supersti
tious—I was born on the thir
teenth.”
The number of livestock on
Georgia farms for January of this
year as compared with one year
ago showed increase for all classes
except mules which registered a
slight decrease.
Since Extension work was start
ed 25 years ago, method and result
demonstrations have been the
backbone of the Extension pro
gram.
