10 Year Program
Outlined to Aid
Georgia Farmers
T. H. Aiken Named to Guide
Program in Newton
County.
Ten roads leading toward a
higher spendable income for
Georgia farmers have been pro
jected , , by the agricultural ,
com- I
mittee of the state's Ten-Year
Development Campaign.
The program will be carried in
to every county of the state un
der the leadership of R. M. Stiles,
Cartersville farmer, who heads the
committee on agriculture.
In Newton County, the program
will be led by T. H. Aiken, who
has been named county chairman
by Mr. Stiles.
The program will stress, among
other things, co-operative product
; ion of additional cash crops on a
| specialized basis; facilities for as
| sembling and grading flexible farm prod- land
nets; and long-time,
I leases.
The Ten-Year Development
campaign is headed, in all phases
in Georgia, by Dean Paul W. Chap
man of the State College of Agri
culture, with Walter R. McDon
aid of the Georgia Pubiic Service
Commission as executive
ary. Dean Chapman’s executive
committee last week approved the
agricultural program formulated
by Mr. Stiles group.
In presenting the program. Mr.
Stiles stressed the fact that “prog
ress in achieving our goals will
depend upon the interest that is
shown by the county chairmen
and the members of the county

FOR REPRESENTATIVE
I hereby make announcement,
declaring my candidacy for Rep
| resentative in the General Assem
bly of Georgia, subject to the
rules and regulations of the Dem
ocratic Primary, September 11th,
1940.
If elected I shall give serious
attention to the educational
question, the welfare of the aged
and infirm, health conditions f
and all other matters affecting
the welfare of Newton county.

FOR STATE SENATE
I hereby announce myself as a !
candidate for State Senate from |
this district, subject to the Dem
ocratic primary to be held on j
September 11th, 1940. I wish to
express my deepest appreciation i
for the support of the people of ■
this county in the past and solicit
your continued support in the fu- I
ture.
Respectfully, j
R. P. CAMPBELL,
committees.” The County commit
tees throughout the state are com-I
posed of farmers, leading citizens
and agricultural workers. In their
work, they will be assisted by ex
isting agencies and groups inter
ested in bettering the economic
condition of farmers.
The ten points of the program
are:
1. Living at home: special re
cognition will be given to farm
families which are 75 per cent or
more self-sustaining.
2. New cash crops: it is recom
mended that each county agree on
one Qr additional cash crops
an( j pro duce them on a cooperative
basis.
3. Needed laws: efforts will be
made to obiain a state marketing
and grading act; a state seed law;
and a state seed testing labora
tory.
4. Soil fertility* because of low
acre yields and high production
costs, emphasis will be placed on
soil conservation on every farm.
5. Long-time leases: because
one third of Georgia’s farm fam
ilies move every year, and because
the condition does not permit pro
gress toward soil improvement and
increased livestock production, en
couragement will be given to long
time leases on a basis beneficial
both to landlord and tenant.
6. Farm forestry: forest pro
tection from fire and the plant
ing of trees on land not suitable
for other purposes will be encour
aged,
7. Pasture demonstrations: in
order to stimulate the livestock
industry, including the growing of
feed crops, provisions will be
sought for pasture and year-round
grazing demonstrations in every
community,
8. Wise land use: since the
size of the average Georgia farm
is less than the national average,

Defense Leaders
To Be Announced
Colonel Ryburn G. Clay, Com- |
mander of the State Defense Corps
states that District Commanders |
have not been commissioned for
all the 26 State Districts. From
two to six counties make up a dis
and selection of County Com
manders within these districts is
being worked out by the District
Commanders in cooperation with
local committees. Home defense
has assumed new im
in the light of the invas
ion technique reputed to have
been set up by Hitler. In the cur
issue of one national publica
tion the Hitler plans for invading i
the United States are purported to
be based on his belief that the
many different races and classes
of people in our country can be
brought into conflict among them
selves and the government seized
by a Nazi organization at the
height of such civil conflict.
Of the fact that the Nazi or
ganization is at work here there
be no doubt, as evidence which
was brought out before the Dies
Committee has shown. Defense
against this insiduous type of in
vasion cannot be combatted by an
army at the front line. Organized
counter offensive is the only an
and the Home Defense Corps
is being set up for that purpose.
“Banana Corn”
Puzzles Farmer
Bananas or corn? Mr. O. A.
Riehle, Warm Springs discovered
a corn stalk recently containing
almost two dozen ears, resembling
closely a stalk of “monkey-fruit.”
To add to Mr. Riehle’s bewilder
ment, the “cornanas” had long,
flowing silks, many times longer
than the average.
proper land use will be imperative.
9. Rating efficiency: as a means
of increasing efficiency and prog
ress, a system of grading advance
ment will be instituted, with public |
honors for those making progress 1
from year to year.
10. Farmer’s Organizations: To
accomplish objectives and for oth
er matters of importance to the
welfare of farm people, farmers
will be encouraged to form their
own organizations for the discuss
ion of problems and consideration
of policies affecting agriculture.
