FEDERAL LAND BANK MONEY
FOR FARMERS
Any farmers who know they will
need to oroeure a loan on their lands
before the end of the year should see
me promptly, and not delay making
application until about the time
money is needed!. It requires con
side.able time to close a loan after
application is made, and if everybody
wait's until about the end of the year
to apply for money, the Bank's force
will be overrun, and the closing of
loans will be delayed. The w'sa
thing to do, if you know you will
need -money, is to apply now, and
then it can he closed at the time
money is needed. The rate ir; 5 1-2
per emit, with rmall exuense for ab
stract and association fees.

j WILL. WE HAVE ANOTHER
POULTRY SALE?
i
W.i hope all those who sold poul
:y r.t the sale at Comer, both on
I Marc'* 14 and June 22, w * e well
pleased with the outcome. Yfe wish
| to assure you that all in our power
was done to make it a success. We
| We wish to take this opportunity to
trank those who were so kind to
help to make the sale the success
ii was.
i If you wage not pleased we feel
''hat all the efforts put forth were in
: vain. These sales are designed to
;i unish you an unlimited market for
nil the poultry you can raise, and it
is the only way wo can think of by
; which any man whether he has one
1 old sped:le,l hen or whether he has
| a wagon load can bring hi ? ch-icko is
rr-d get the same price, paid in hard
cash. Always the* bc-st pi b-g in the
; stale is paid for them, and if we can
- arentea a car the besc p. ire in the
i .cJ Stn.es i- p-.-ia! ior tin o. If
we are not going to grow lots of
chickens? for sain v. r e do no! need
moh a market. If vie expect to con
tinue to grow only cotton for a mon
ey crop, we can cat all the chickens
we can grow here at home. In the
portions of the .'.ate where the boll
weevil has taught thorn to grow some
t. mg besides cotton for market,
these sales have been overw- elming
successes.
New these sales are not designed
to hurt anyone. They relieve our
local congested markets by .sending
the chickens out of the way and
thereby cause our local markets to
be better hv decreasing the local
supply. There is one of H-ese sales
held almost every day ir some coun
ties of the state and that is one rea
son why chickens bring as much as
they do today. Madison county is a
(rural comity and it seems that all
of us should be interested in keeping
the prices of our commodities as high
as possible.
The two per cent discount charged
was nec,3ssa>. v to defray the expenses
of tb.fi sale. The company who bought
the chickens did not as much as l ive
a representative at the sale. The
fate of Georgia GAVE you the ser
vices of all the m j n who had charge
of the sale. Othvr men had to be
hired to help with it; the services of
Mr. ."I. C. Gay, State Agent in mar
keting, Prof. Wooster from the Poul
try Dept, of the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture and Mr. Whel
chel of the College of Agriculture
did not cost Madison county a penny.
Expenses of the sale are itemized
below, and amount of commission
taken in stated as follows—
Amount of Commission ....$.‘14.27
Cleaning car $ 2.00
Labor 6.25
Messages 1,. 25
1 Plug and sleeve 25
Circulars 2.50
Weighers 2.50
Total 14.75
Amt in Bank for next sale 19.52
There were 260 men sold chickens
which brought $1720.74 which aver
ages $6.61 pei- sale, making the ex
pense of sale only )3c per man.
