FARM
Elsewhere in this issue we are car
rying an A-. 1, for the above seed Farm
which we are anxious for each of
our readers to note carefully.
Few of our readers realize the. ex
tent arid the class of work that is
being done right in our own midst.
For years, Mr J . O. M. Smith, whom
most of you know, has devoted his
time and every effort to put on the
market the best seeds possible . Un
der his, direction and that of Mr W.
H. Collins, a scientific plant breeder
he has developed a quality of seed
in cotton, wheat, cats, etc' that are
recognized as standards all over the
country. At the Agricultural Col
lege? and Experiment Stations you
will notice his seeds stand at the top
of the lists.
In Idl 9 W e had the pleasure of
being one of a Committee to meas
ure the 10 acre field of cotton, from
which he made 30 bales and on which
he was awarded SIOOO and a Gold
Medal, for the best yield, in which
there were contestants from all over
the South.
The seed he has for market are
raised on hi.s own farms, ginned by
and thrashed in private plants, cul
led in the same way, also packed so
as to be thoroughly ventilated, so
ary one buying his seed from the a
bovo farm can rely on the quality.
We are not trying to discriminate
against xnsnv other good seeds placed
on the market, but are only giving
recognition to an industry right in
our own midst, which possibly our
people have not given full credit, and
are possibly .better known elsewhere
than at home.
Mr Herbert Moon has returned
from Westminister, S. C.
Mr and Mrs D. P- Moon have as
their guest, Miss Onida t arson o
Cornelia.
Friends of Mbs T. C. Davison are
glad to know' that she is able to be
up after an illness of several days.
Quite a number from here attend
ed the County Contests in Daniels
ville Friday arid Saturday.

CONGRESSMAN BRAND PRAISED
j IN EDITORIAL FOR RECORD
AND HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS
FOR FARMERS
The splendid record made by
Judge Charles H. Brand, congress
; man of the Eighth district, stands
1
| out prominent not only in Athens
! and his district, but it has attracted
■ state and nation-wide attention.. The
i Atlanta Constitution editorially, has
j this to say of his accomplishments
j and especially on farm o. edits legis
:latter enacted through his efforts;
Brand’s Provisions
A great deal has been said and
i written about recently enacted farm
j credits legislation. As the bill finally
j came from conference and as now
; written in the statutes, it represents
| the eomposit efforts of a great
many members of both houses of
congress; but it is not overstating
the facts to declare that Georgia
| representatives had perhaps more
■active part ir. the'completed legisla
tion than these of any other state,
j Congressman Brand, of the Eighth
■ district, is a member of the house
committee or. bankisg arid currency,
and has for neat !y two years been
peculiarly active in getting legislaton
| that was finally included in the re
i cent-ly passed measure .
j In April, 1921, he introduced an
I amendment to the federal reserve
act providing for the discount of
i notes, drafts and bills oi exchange
|
of factors.
This followed a decision of the
federal reserve board that factors
papers were not of the eligibles,
though these securities had formerly
been discounted .
The purpose of Congressman
Brand’s bill was to restore the eligi
bility of factors’ papers; and under
the rural credits bill, as passed,
farmers can go to these factors and
warehuses and have the money ad
vanced them to make their crops and
the factors in turn can take the
farmers’ notes for their money and
with the same as collateral security,
can borrow money from member
banks to replace or take care of
what they have loaned the farmer's.
In other words, it, adds another
class of people to the eligible list who
may go to member banks of the sys
tem and borrow money for the use
of their patrons or customers who
for several years have r.ot been able
to do so. This is very important to
the farming classes..
In March 1922, Congressman
; Brand introduced an amendment to
the federal farm loan act so that ac
! tual fai mers might be enabled to
! borrow money for indebtedness due
by them when not incurred lor agri
! cultural purposes.
This bill, under the amendment
| embodied in the composite bill, takes
’ care of anew class of farmers who
; may make loans who have hereto
fore been held ineligible under the
ruling of thefederal farm loan board.
In other words, the law as it stood
before this credit bill was passed was
that no farmer could borrow money
ito pav indebtedness which he owed
I unless such indebtedness was con
tracted for agricultural purposes.
There were hundreds of thousands
| of dollars in the state owed by fann
'ers when the deflation avalanche
!,truck the country in 1920 which
was not incurred for agricultural
I purposes and therefort they could not
bin row money on their land to liqui
; date the same. The loans or debts
were largely due to the elump in the
price of cotton for which the farmer:-
we e not responsible. Many people
were forced into bankruptcy on ac
count of this class of farmed? and
the indebtedness being outlawed by:
the federal farm loan board.
‘.Vi . • the Gc tjnar introduced the .
this class of farmc-rs and loan them
money on their land whethef the
debts were incurred for agricultural
purposes or not, Judge Lobdcll wrote
him a letter approving the bill, stat
ing the law ought to be amended.
The amendment which Judge Brand
proposed was embodied in the com
posite bill with the exception that in
the latter bill such indebtedness
above referred to wa| limited to
bill to amend the law and take in
January 1, 1922. That is to say, they
will loan money to farmers to dis
charge indebtedness, provided the
same was contracted prior to Janu
ary 1, 1922. The idea of the ma
jority of the committee was that this
limitation would take care of meet,
of the indebtedness incurred by rea
son of the great loss in farm pro
ducts during 1920 and 1921 .
The public is quite familiar with
Judge Brand’s efforts in what is
known 3s the Havris-Brand amend
ment in regard to allowing state
banks of small capitalization to en
ter the federal reserve system.
