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.

Ga, R: ~ Danielsville, Georgia, Friday, April 13, 1023 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.
