BULLOCK COUNTY BOY JS CORN CLUB CHAMPION To Paul Motes, club hoy of Bul lock county, goes the hon. r of the champion corn raiser among the club numbers for the year 1924. On one acre he produced 110.4 bushels, at a cost of $38.30, op 27.2 cents per bushel. Tie' crop was produced under the direction ol County Agent, W. D. Hubs, who attests to the record yield. The plan of preparation and cul tivation followed by the boy shows that the land, which was a light loam and somewhat low, was turned about eight inches deep and then subsoiled. It was planted on Apt hi 23, using a we'll known pred.hc va riety . Ten tv/)o-horse loads _ of stable manure and four hundred pounds of home mixed fertilizer analyzes; 10-2-3 were used under the corn. A perfect stand was secured and I four cultivations were given the crop. At the lost cultivation on June 26 an application of two hundred pounds of nitrate of soda was made .* A drouth in August injure.’ the crop to some extent the bV>y says, but not sio much as adjoining fields. The items of expense in the re port made by the boy shows that 00 was paid for the rent o f land, $2.95 for preparation c? seed bed and planting, $.75 for seed. 1 >.OO for manure, $10.50 for Fertdizo", $2.00 for cultivation, and $2.10 for amt of gathering the crop.

Incidental fees have been fixed by the Board of Trustees at $2.00 per child for the Grammar grades and $.OO for the High School grades, payable on entry J. A. Griffeth, Chairman EDITCfRIAL FROM THE THOM ASVILLE TIMES-ENTERPRISE At the request of the Grand Jury the Timer-Enterprise is today pub lishing in full the report of the / Health OSheer of Thomas County, made to that body at its session this week. This report was cons*tiered so fine that it was the desire of the gen tlemen composing the Grand Jury that it be sent broadcast throughout the county so that all the people might understand definitely what had lH>en done. This report is remarkable in many ways-. It sh®ws not only efficient bn extensive work. It creates the im pression that the work is growing, that the people are learning that it is for their express benefit and that they are taking more general advan tage ef it. Ten thousand five hundred eighty five persons have been giver, the ty phoid treatment in ten months time. This means over thirty-one thousand inoculations all done by ‘he health department and all at no cast what ever to the people of the county. Du ring the time that typhoid was grow ing in ti e State this county shows loss of it and the death rate smaller. Only one death from diphtheria if the period i another remarkable :n cidenfi This is due to the care i*. watching cu es and likewise furnish ing anti-toxin to children free o, charge, and the preventive treatment as tliey desire it. Sm dlpox got a start and this was summarily checked and a neighbor ing county suffering with a good ma ny cases of the diseases got assist ance from Thomas County in fight ing it. Not a case came over the j l.fwi ,J •. fx if*, the wrirh - -1" tiio otlici r. j Two hundred and ninety-three j children have been inestimably ben } edited by having defects removed. ; These were removed by physicians m j Thomasville and elsewhere, who gave their services free of charge, because the parents of those children were unable to pav for the work. Imagine if you the direct benefit to t>e deriv ed from this one thing alone, the condition of those children will ma terially improve as the years go by because they have been relieved of a condition that would decrease in stead of increasing their resistance powers to ordinary diseases and to natural growth. This alone is worth all that Thomas county spends on this work. ' Til* A birthday dinner At the home of Mr. J. T.
