LAZINESS AND INDIFFERENCE ARE
MAIN REASONS FOR FAILURE TO VOTE
The principal difference be
tween a democracy and a dicta
torship is that in a democracy
the people can choose the people
to hold office, from president on
down the line. They can have
the kind of government they
want If enough people want a
man elected to office, or put out
of office, they can do so—if they
can, and do, vote! There have
been elections in Georgia where
one vote decided which man
would get office.
No conqueror has taken away
our right to vote. Yet millions of
Americans, through laziness or
indifference, have of their own
choice surrendered the one guard
ian they have against tyranny or
bad government. They will not
register—and vote, though thou
sands of fine American boys have
died in this and other wars so
that this right might not be taken
from us.

PERENNIALS PRODUCE HAY AND STOP
SOIL EROSION ON C. D. RAMSEY FARM
By J. P. KNIGHT
County Eoil Technician
C. D. Ramsey is one of many
farmers in this section who has
been cooperating with the Soil
Conservation District in the est
ablishment of erosion control
practices.
Three years ago Mr. Ramsey
planted several acres of his farm
to kudzu and now his acreage of
sericea lespedeza exceeds the
hundred mark. Today these crops
are an outstanding example of
what perennials will accomplish
in hay production and control of

Awarded By BTU
For Study Course
Heading the current list on
the Baptist Training Union’s
study and training program was
a study course entitled “Mean
ing of Church Membership,”
conducted last Wednesday and
Thursday nights at the Coving
ton Baptist Church.
Led by Cornelius Collins, Di
rector of the Union, the study
included such significant features
as the value of church member
ship, the duty of a church mem
ber, the functions of different
church organizations, and the in
dividual’s part in the church
program.
Those receiving the study
i course certificates were Suzanne
Gardner, Betty Ann Alford, Fran
; ces Ginn, Mary Spears, Polly
Butler, Dan Greer, Bubber
Floyd, Emmett Floyd and Pete
Nunn.
In concluding the course, Mr.
Collins said, “Every church
member has a vital part to play
in the program of his church.
The only way we can meet our
obligations sufficiently is to
know the true meaning of
' church membership. This goal
we can attain by Bible study,
Iby practical church work, and
by ‘following in His steps’.”
Make Good Use
Os Poultry Feed
Specialist Says
Georgia farmers should make
the best possible use of available
feed to cope with the poultry
feed shortage, Arthur Gannon,
poultryman of the Agricultur
al Extension Service, declared
this week.
Poultry flocks in some sections
of the country may .go hungry,
according to Mr. Gannon, but
he said the situation in Georgia
appears to be better than in a
few other eastern states.
“Well-made feed hoppers
should be used as a means of
preventing feed waste, and they
should be onlv oartially filled
so that the chickens will not
scratch out the mash,’’ the Ex
tension Service poultryman ex
plained.
“Close culling of the flock to
remove anv nonlavers is a fe^d
saver, and if a' hen goes brood”
she should be marketed at once.”
he said. “Turning hens out to
gram will cut the feed bill 10
to 15 percent, but it is not ns
uall” advisable to turn broilers
out.”

soil erosion. These perennial i
crops not only have stopped soil |
washing and gullying, but they
also are now in full production
of feed crops.
In the matter of livestock pro
duction in this section, the sur
face has barely been scratched,
yet the possibilities are exceed
ingly good for those who will
properly plan for the necessary
pasturage and home grown feeds
well in advance of the purchase
of livestock.
Newton farmers have expanded
their acreages of annual les
pedezas during the past three or
four years to a commendable de
gree and these, together with
other annual legumes, have
meant much in the maintenance
of soil fertility. But there is still
much to be done in the way of
increasing the acreages of peren
nial legumes.
Field results in this county
show that kudzu and sericea give
highly satisfactory returns to all
those who have thoroughly test
ed them. They save soil, build
soil, produce hay and pasturage
—all of which are needed now
more than ever before.

Soil Improvement
Test demonstration farmers in ।
Mitchell County are showing
neighbors that soils can be im- ।
proved, thereby providing a bet- -
ter living on the land, J. A.
Mauldin, Mitchell county agent,
said this week.
Fifteen test demonstrations
farmers are cooperating with
the Agricultural Extension Ser
vice and the Tennessee Valley,
Authority, he pointed out, and
these farmers are producing 1
more and better cover crops, I
permanent pasture and tempor-1
ary grazing through the addi
tion of lime and phosphate to
,-the soil.
“Look at J. W. Taylor, near
Pelham,” Mr. Mauldin said.
“This farmer plants oats and
blue lupine, grazing the oats
with cattle and leaving the lu
pine for soil building. How-1
ever, like most Mitchell County
soil, his land needed phosphate,
so, after applying 250 pounds
of triple superphosphate per
acre, he is growing these crops
successfully.”
Another farmer, C. M. Strip
ling, of Camilla, has good per
manent pasture after adding
minerals to the soil. Cattle are!
today grazing on one tract of
his land where old water oaks! ■
grew until he cut them and ap- j
plied lime and phosphate on the
deep sand—a kind of land once j
considered unsuitable for /agri
culture.
Mr. Stripling has fenced his
pasture. This was necessary, he
said, to keep out neighboring
