UESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1925.
DESCUSSIONS AND CONTESTS
MADE UP PROGRAM. THREE
COUNTIES REPRESENTED.
The W. T. R. Union held an insti
tuie in Dawson on September 26th.
The program was very unusual and
iteresting, and Mr. Lynwood Hol-|
jand and, the speakers are to be cou-_‘
gratulated upon its success. "
The institute opened with a devo
tional and song service. As the &Ep
worth League Handbook constituted
¢ program, Miss Elizabeth Belcher,
the cfficient district secretary, inform
ed leaguers of its use and gave a talk
on junior and intermediate work. Miss
Jsma Swain discussed the .origin and
oruanization of the league. Following
(.- Mr. Lynwood Holland, of Bron
wood, discussed the business side of
the league. During intermissions many
enjovable numbers were wendered, in
cluding a piano duet by Frances Clay
and Leila Horsley, and readings by
Miss Swain, Miss Hunt, Miss Moody
of Preston and Miss Lee of Parrott.
These were thoroughly enjoyed and
.l were glad that there were such
talented leaguers in the union.
From 12 until 2 o’clock was lunch
eon period.~All leagues that were rep
rescnted assisted in supplying the
junch, which was very tempting, and
inciuded chicken, cake, salad, tea,
ndwiches and everything good to
eat. There was ice cream for dessert, |
which was furnished by the Shellman
leazue. After this most delicious feast
work was resumed. Mrs. J. M. Chris
tiin. of Preston, conducted the devo
tional, which ~was very impressive.
Following this service Rev. W. E.
Hiohtower, of Bronwood, discussed
the first and fourth departments of
the league, which are known as the
eiritual departments. Miss Merle
Crivtenden, of Shellmari, talked on the
second, or social, departfllent, and the
¢+ or recreation department. Last
but not least Miss Mary Reddick, of
M Olive, told of the work to be ac
complished by county unions and ru
-2l leagues. All discussions were ably
delivered, and every leaguer now
Lnows something about the handbook.
Now excitement and interest follow
od. Misses Merle Crittenden and Lou
isc Dridges were appointed to choose
ides for the approaching contests.
Miss Crittenden’s side was called the
‘Aaltese” and the latter side the “Vio
let=." both being league symbols. The
first contest was an oral drill over the
bandbook., Much enthusiasm was man
ifested in this eontest, but at last the
“Vinlets” were announced as victors,
and were awarded a large bag of kiss
¢s. They—the kisses—were unusually
numerous. From thence interest was
heightened when other contests wcre‘
held. The “Violets” were awarded ten
points for having their half of the
primary department best decorated,
these decorations representing a typi
cal Epworth League room. The “Mal
tese” were awarded a prize for having
the hest yell and song, and also for
winning in a jelly bean contest. This
prize was a “lovthg cup,” but in reali
ty was a,quart cup. After these con
tests an ice cream party was held with
cream left over ‘fronf lunch.
The meeting adjourned at 5:30 with
the leaguers pronouncing this the best
institute ever attended. They want the
public to know that this was the first
institute ever held by a county union
in south Georgia, and it was a great
success, which ~was due to Mr. Lyn
wood Holland, the president, to all
speakers, to all leagues represented—
Bronwood, Shellman, Mt. Olive, Par
rott, Preston and Dawson—as well as
to Mrs. J. G. Parks, Mis. G A, Har
ris, Mrs. J. H. Lewis and Mrs. J. H.
Collier. These ladies the Dawsowr
leaguers wish to thank for their faith
ful assistance.
All are now anxiously awaiting the
vuion meeting to be held at Shellman
on October 9th. ;

ONE OF GREATEST BOVINE
FREAKS OF THE WORLD
Terrell County Cow Has Two Bags
And Is Milked From Both.
Mr. Hanson Pritchard, of Par
rott, is the owner of one of the
greatest freaks ever secen in this
section—or anywhere else for that
matter. -
It is a cow with two bags, one
of which is on top of her back and
both of which give milk.-
The freak bovine is a young cow
with her first calf, and was the
property of a negro before being
bought by Mr. Pritchard.
NORTH GEORGIANS WANT TO
RENT FARMS OR CROP ON
SHARES NEXT YEAR, |
e ;
Scores of north Georgia farmers are
seeking places in this section of the
state, it “is learned from reéal estate
men here and in other towns in this
vicinity. Most of the up-state men
who are anxious to move live in the
droucht-stricken regions, where crops
were a complete failure. The majority
of the inquiries pouring into the real
estate offices at Dawson and other
towns are for farms for rent or for
places as half-croppers.
In this connection it is stated that
there are few farms available for
renting purposes, that is in southwest
Georgia. Some big land owners have
places for half-croppers, but many
north Georgians seeking such connec
tions are going to be disappointed.
There will be no fallow fields, in
this section of the state in 1926, ac
cording to present indications. The
wonderful crops that have been made
this year have again demonstrated that
there is money in farming in south
west Georgia, and as a consequence
the demand for farm lands is more in
sistent than it has been in a long time.

PAYS MONEY BACK WITH IN
TEREST BY ENRICHING SOIL,
I NOW IS TIME TO PLANT.
{ Many Terrell county farmers will
sow vetch this fall, and seed are now
Il)cing obtained for that purpose.
i This is a time tcsth wititer legume.
jx-\ plant which grows during cold
‘weather and stores nitrogen in “the
soil. It belongs to the pea family. -
Under existing conditions the chief
value in having vetch growing on a
farm is to enrich the land. Growing
and plowing under good crops of hairy}
vetch will enrich the land and the men
who till it, |
When money is deposited in a bank‘
and checked out within a few days it
does not draw interest or pay divi
dends. When vetch is planted in your
land it should be left to make its full|
growth and then be plowed under. In|
this way the planter gets his money
back with interest from the following
crop. ‘
Vetch makes its best growth dur
ing the same time that grain does. It
is not good practice to follow oats
with cotton. It is not good practice
to follow vetch with cotton the first
year. If this is done then one of two
things happen. Either the vetch is
plowed under in March too early to
have collected many dividends ar else
the cotton is planted in May tQo late
to make the usual successful crop. |
A good way to handle vetch so that
it will pay you the highest rate of
interest: Plant the vetch in October,
20 pounds per acre, using inoculation,
and let it grow until it matures, goes‘
to seed and falls down on the ground
late in May. Late in June cut the
vetch into the soil with a good disc|
harrow. Plant soy beans for hay, With
favorable seasons the vetch®will volun
teer the following October. Plow it
under the second May and follow two |
weeks later with corn, and make the
best corn on the place. Then x'ollow|
the corn crop with cotton. j
It is best to seed vetch on land that
grew cotton this year so that it will‘
make use of any fertilizer left in the
soil. |
~ 1f you don’t intend to leave vetch]‘
in your land bank long enough to
draw interest you need not expect tO‘
collect any dividends fronf vetch. |
It takes time for money to draw in
terest. It takes time for vetch to
igro\\'. die, rot, become incorporated
‘with the soil and return dividends. |
| Those who use vetch intelligently
‘will enrich the earth and those who
till it. Qctober is the time to plant.
Seed are getting higher daily, so get
vour orders in early. Mr. Gibson, the
}county agent, will obtain seed for any
‘Terrell farmer who desires them. i
A good crop of vetch turned un(ler‘
\equals the use of 214 sacks of nitrate
of soda per acre. Nearly evary one of
.us can afford to give time and vetch
a chance to compete with the cost of
the soda.
