PATRICK FEED CO.
In our last column which we told you about Beautena,
the grade holitein calf here at the store, there was an
error in type. Instead of 25 pounds of eels HaHena at it
appeared in the column, if should have been 25 pound*
nursing chow and 400 pounds of calf startana.
Now after she hat eaten 25 pounds nursing chow and
400 pounds of calf Harfena she will be about 4 months
old end wei 9 h between 350 to 400 poundt. Now she is
reedy for pesfure. No we don f intend to just put her
on pesfure and let her coast from here on in. She will
get in addition to good pasture 3 pounds of 0 i F Chow
or D * F Supplement mixed 50-50 with grain each day.
DIF chow is a body building feed which is a complete
ration end D A F supplement should be mixed 50-50 with
course ground oet*. Then 90 days before freshening the
will get I pound of this ration for each 100 poundt body
weight. She will also have good hay free choice from the
time she is 2 months eld until freshening.
I know whet a lot of you ere thinking now. How
much will all this cost? Can I raise my herd replacement
profitable en this plan? First let's see how much this plan
will coif. (This is figured on heavy breeds, light breedt
less.l 25 pounds nurse chow, $4.85; 400 pounds calf
starfena, $24 40: 2600 pounds D i F Chow, $122.20; 2
tons of hey, $80.00; total $231.45.
If you have your own oats the cost would be: 25
poundt nurte chew, $4.85; 400 poundt calf starfena,
$24.40: 1300 poundt Di F Supplement, $63.05; 1300
poundt eah (8) 3c. $39.00; 2 tent hayt, $80.00: total
$211.30.
Here it what you will have in return for money spent
providing you have good breeding. You will get a more
fully developed heifer into the milking string that will
utilize her milking ration to make milk instead of finishing
growing out. You will have a heifer that will weigh 1100
io 1200 pounds or more and capable of producing 10,000
io 12,000 pounds of milk her first lactation. She will
freshen from 4 to 8 months earlier than the average heifers.
She will be a profitable producer after many heifers raised
on a hit or miss basis have gone to the slaughter pen.
Heifers raised on the Purina plan have an average of 7
lactation, while the average cow in the U. S. leave the
milking string after 3 to 4 lactation. This plan means rais
ing fewer replacements because of long milking life of
your cow. This plan means less calving trouble, less breed
ing trouble, less other trouble that cut down on dairy
profits. This plan means reaching breeding weight sooner.
We recommend breeding by weight instead of age Breed
ing recommendations:
Guernseys, 550 pounds; holsteins and Brown Swiss,
750 pounds: Jerseys, 500 pounds and Ayshires, 650 lbs.
In many cases heifers raised on this plan pay the en
tire cost of growing them out the first lactation; even be
fore the average heifer goes into the milking barn.
We have dairymen here in Newton County that are
on this program. They have heifers producing from 8,000
to 12,000 pounds milk their first lactation. They are well
pleated with these results in every respect. Come by the
store to see us or see me on the route and let us help you
get started to bigger dairy profits than you ever dreamed
possible.

The Music Club met this week

it was with Dr. Clifford of Oxford

we could not play like that. Yet,
we did not practice as he did
when young so we ame the ones
who suffer. We site thankful
that we have such a man at
Emory-at-Oxford which is fast
becoming one of the finest cul
tural cp. ters in the U. S. Oh me,
do not tell me I cover too much

I others appreciate Emary-at-Ox
‘ ford and what it has to offer it’s
- students. We take for granted
; the things we have at home and
|do not always fully appreciate I
। them . . . It’s just 12ke looking
: for greener pastures, when the
; one at home is best. Too, Emory
; at-Oxford. is located on Historic
Grounds . . all the boys and
girls there will say sometimes
“there is nothing to do here”
when their studies are over . . .
yet in later years they send their
! children right back here because
they know the beauty of the lo
i cation. There is not a “honky
: tonk” a “Juke Joint” or any
i thing like that (if I spelled them
; right) anywhere to be found.
There is not a liquor store or
I beer joint in the County ... So
i the boys and girls are exposed
to the Churches where they meet
all the girls and boys of Oxford
i and Covington and surrounding
: towns, and where their idle time
Jis spent really in studs' as it
■ should be, and in the right cir
. cles . . . circles and an atmos-
I phere which build character . . .

ed to promote the business, in

POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT
I hereby announce my candi
dacy for councilman from Cov
mglon. I announce in order that
I may help the people of Cov
j ington, and would appreciate
. your support on the following
' points which 1 think are of vital
. importance to our town.
1. I would work for new indus
tries to come to Covington, there
have been several that we have
j lost because other towns were
on the alert, why can't Cov-
I ington get its shSre of these?
2. I am of the opinion that
; our town should be divided into
wards, and a councilman elected
. from each ward, I would work
toward this if I am elected.
3. I am of the opinion that
; there should be a quarterly re
port made of the cities financial
| standing, and the same publish
ed. any money that is on deposit
in any institution should be made
known, and that money placed
where it will bring in the most
return for the citizens of Cov
! ington.
May I ask your support if you
are in favor of these things for
our town.
Most Respectfully,

Charles Allen expressed my
sentiments, as so often he does,
yesterday when he said Evil
Runs Rampant if we condone it.
His story was like this: Long ago
must of us heard at our Mother's
knee the story of the medievial
। sorcerer who discovered the for
| mula for producing water. A se
| cret incarnation brought water
i gushing from thin air. Then one
) day as the story goes, the wise
old man left his lab in the hands
of an apprentice. The curious
. youth rummaged t hrough the
old man's papers and found the
secret formula and produced
water. Rivers of water flooded
the laboratory, but the youth did
not know how to break the spell.
Had not the sorcerer returned
promptly, the whole world would
have become covered with water.
That is somewhat the predica
ment of modern man living in a
world of scientific achievement.
Science has advanced so rapidly
in our own generation — before
our own eyes as it were — that
i rpany wonder if 'we shall not
I see the day when acinece will
j destroy us. I cannot share their
! concern because I know' that
i there are forces in this world
which, given a chance, offer sta
bilizing influences. Science will
never be uncontrolled as long as
reasonable men are at the con
trols. YET, there is little room
for indifference, for the appren
tice may use the wonders of sci
ence in unreasonable ways. Gen.
Omar Bradley has spoken a
word which out to challenge
and make sober our thought. “We
I have too man men of science”,
,he cautions, “and too few men
।of God. We have grasped the
: mystery of the atom and rejected
; the Sermon on the Mount.” n ’he
1 most stabilizing factor in our
world is man's moral and ethical
nature. If this spiritual and part
of man’s life does not grow with
advances into a scientific real,
* then we are living in an age ot
peril, indeed. Victor Conn, writ
ing in “1999 Our Hopeful Future”
says: “One hears often of the race
between “science’ and ‘man’s in
ability to control it’. The descrip
tion is inexact. The race is actu
ally between man’s ability to do
good and do evil, and it began
when the first man appeared.
Science does not guarantee any
thing: it gives us both terror
weapons and tractors. If we now
have the power to do unparallel
ied harm and even end civiliza-
I tion, we also have the power to
do unparalleled good. For the
first time we have the power to
' end hunger and disease, two spec
tors that continue every day to
cause so much misery as all the
wars we have waged.” In this
struggle between good and evil,
science is a bystander. When our
i lives are controlled by God, then
I we do good, and we use science
1 and all of the other wonders Os
j this age to serve mankind. Yes,

Make Train Trip
Conyers Coca-Cola
By Patty Warren
Brownie Troop 3 met after
school Wednesday, November 21
for a train ride to Conyers. We
met at Legion Hall and played
games until time for the train
to leave.
The train ride was fun. We
enjoyed walking to the water
fountain and looking out the win
dow's. It didn't take long to get
to Conyers. When we got to
Conyers we went to the drug
store for ice cream cones.
Then we went to the Coca-Cola
Plant. The manager showed us
through the plant. He told us
how the bottles were cleaned,
inspected and filled with Coca-
Cola. He told us about the seeing
eye that takes the chipped bot
tles out as they come down the
line. We saw how the bottles
were loaded in the cases and
then into the trucks. The mana
ger gave us a Coca-Cola to drin>%
He also gave us a little gold Coca-
Cola on a chain and a balloon.
He was very nice to show us all
the interesting things in a Coca-
Cola Plant.
We wish to thank the people
who met us in Conyers and
brought us back in their cars.
They were Mrs. Paul Pignolet,
Mrs. Durand and Henrv Odum

Dr. Allen is correct, and as I
have said before, if we spent as
much .money, as a NATION send
ing God's Missionaries to foreign
lands so that they might have
God. know Him and serve HIM,
then we would win that peace
which passeth all understanding,
and use the things He has given
us for Good! Think over the idea
of introducing a bill in State and
U. S. Senate and Legislature to
spend some of these billions to
teach God, Good, and Love to
all peoples. Would you who read
this do just that ... or are you
one of those who say you can't
. mix Church and State? That's
,what's the matter with us now
I. . . you hate to see Godless men
in office and see the results of
their labors . . . God should be in
everything every man woman
and child does, to win the peace
and know how to love our neigh
j bor as ourselves . . . Yes, 1 got

Ga. Farm Bureau federation's 18th
Annual Convention Ends in Atlanta
The 40.271-member Georgia
Farm Bufeau Federation ended
its 18th Annual Convention here
Wednesday on a strong note of
optimism for even better things
for Georgia's farmers in the fu
ture.
Delegates heard H. L. Wingate
of Pelham, state Farm Bureau
President, commend county ac
tivity. Mr. Wingale, in his an
nual report, said the state organ
ization must remain strong and
active if it is to continue to be
an effective spokesman for Geor
gia farmers. He said that mem
bership obviously is of primary
importance.
During the 3-day session, dele
gates heard addresses by Dr. C.
C. Murray, Dean of the College
of Agriculture of the University
of Georgia. Representative Jamie
L. Whitten of Mississippi, Mrs.
Bernice Brown McCullar of the
Department of Education, Mr.
Wingate, Wesley Patrick of
Brooks County, the Star Farmer
of the United States, and Priscilla
Jones of Early County, State
F.H.A. President.
Representative Whitten told
the convention that he thought
the average foreign trade group
feels it would be much betteY if
the U. S. would announce its pro
duction each year for export and
give some assurances to world
i traders of the quantity that we
would provide for export. Un
der present procedures, he said,
: the U. S. offers much more cot
| ton than it sells and the govern
ment in effect, is fixing world
I prices by determining the bid
which will be accepted.
Representative Whitten, re
porting on research that he has
done abroad, said “on all hands,
I was told that the world has
a real interest, in American pro
' production for export because
more consistent and the world is
: glad to deal with American ex-
I porters and American people.”
Dr. Murray told the convention
that a continuing and even great
-1 er emphasis must be given to (1)
! greater efficiency of production.
' (2) improved quality of farm
: produce and (3) expanded mar
i ket outlets for the products of
| the farm.
Resolutions dealing with prac
i tically all segments of life in
'Georgia — farm, political, safety,
prices, and costs — were consid-
ered and acted upon by the vot
ing delegates.
The following District Direc
tors were elected: First District;
J. T. Stubbs, Bryan County; Sec
ond District: C. E. Clanton, Jr.,
Brooks County; Third District:
Pete Rhyne, Sumter County;
Fifth District: George S. Potts,
Rockdale County; Sixth District;

County; Seventh District; Sidney

County; Ninth District: Dr. Harry
Brown, Rabun County; Tenth
District: C. B. Wright, Wilkes
County.
Mrs. Troy Rucker of the Farm
Bureau Women was also elected
to the Board. Officers re-elected
were H. L. Wingate of Pelham,
