THE BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS, SEPT. 20, 1917.
AGRICULTURAL OEPI.
OFFERS GOOD ADVICE
Atlanta, Ga., September 18.—Dire-.'
tor L. 13. Jackson cf the Georgia State
Market Bureau has made a special in
vestigation into the subject of the pre
vailing price of cotton and find-, that
there is no apparent reason why the
price should be as low as it is today.
Statistics show that within the past
twelve months consumption has ex
hausted production by over three mil
lion bales, which was provided for
only by the big surplus of 1914. The
government estimate for 1917, Mr.
Jackson jioints out, shows that there
will be a short crop, and there is ev
ery indication that the surplus will
in- exhausted.
Comparing the price of cotton with
the price of wheat, Mr. Jackson shows
that where wheat sells at $2.20 per
bushel, the *>rice fixed by President
Wilson, cotton ought to sell at 28c
per pound. This Is arrived at by a
comparison of the prices of wheat and
cotton covering a long period of years.
For this reason, the State Market
Bureau urges farmers all over Geor
gia to hold their cotton and not to lei
it go at prevailing prices. In his pre
sentation of the subject urging the
farmers of Georgia to hold their cot
ton for better prices than those now
prevailing, Mr. .Jackson says:
“During the pas* ten years the price
of cotton has averaged 11 cents, and
wheat 87 cents per bushel. On this
basis, $2 wheat is equivalent to 2Jo
cotton, and $2.20 wheat is equal to
28c cotton. The com)>arative prices of
the two for the ten year period have
been:
Cotton Wheat
per lb. per bu.
1915 11.2 92.0
1914 7.3 98.6
1913 12.5 79.9
1912 lI.S 76.0
1911 9.6 87.4
1910 14.0 88.3
1909 14.3 98.6
1908 9.2 92.8
1907 11.5 54.7
1906 10. 66.7
“The southern farmer will be in
good financial condition this fall, and
he should resist declines in cotton by
stubbornly holding off the market. Es
pecially is this so during the next
three months, when there is unusally
a tendency to try tc sell too fast. We
shoinid have at least 25c, or more, for
our cottcn^—‘and we will get it if we
market our crop gradually..”

The opportunity is presented for
Georgia farmers to secure some of the
best breeding cattle in the country at
prices which are paid for beef. The
Bureau of Animal Industry of the
United States' Department of Agricul
ture has just brought it to the atten
tion of the Siate Department of Agri
culture that there is an enormous num
ber of high-gradge Herefords, togeth
er with some Short Horns and Angus,
for sale in Texas, and unless they are
bought for breeding purposes within
the next thirty days, they will be sold
for slaughter.
According to the information reach
ing the State Department of Agricul
ture, these cattle can be purchased at
7c to 8 l-2c per pound, a very reason
able price, considering the value of
other classes of-meat animals. High
grade heifers up to 18 months old may
be had at S4O to $45 per head and
good grade cows from 2 to 6 years old
at S6O to S7O each. It is said that these
animals are ki strong enough flesh to
stand a long shipment.
The State Department of Agricul
ture considers this one of the very
best opportunities ever presented to
Georgia farmers for securing at rea
sonable prices high-grade cattle for
breeding purposes. Georgia will be
looked to more than ever within the
next years fqr an abundant supply of
meat and for many years to come it
Is going to bring high prices.
The Central of Georgia Railway Cos.,
lias bought 540 of these Texas breed
ing cattle of the Hereford and Short
Horn variety and these are now on
their way to southeastern Georgia to
be distributed over farms. Any infor
| mattoix-on the subject which may be
| desired may be had by applying to
i the State College of Agriculture.
\ Athens, Ga. In the event that anyone
; should wish to take advantage of this
! opportunity, there should be no delay
about it, as all of these cattle will he
; disposed of either for breeding pur
|K>sos or slaughter within the next
month.

The work of cattle tick eradication
| in Georgia with a view to making this
state ultimately one of the great cat- i
tie producing sections, has been given
a materially added impetus within the
next few weeks. The Georgia I .and
Owners Association, comprising prom
inent farmers and land owners
throughout South Georgia, has taken
hold of the matter in earnest and in
their meeting at Tifton Saturday
showed that they are thoroughly de
termined to see that the cattle tick
is stamped out of Georgia as soon as
possible, and that the opportunity is
met in every i>art of the state for the
I growing of high-grade beef.
The Department of Agriculture calls
i attention to the fact that preparations
should be made now for beginning the
, dipping of cattle early next spring to
prevent the tick getting started. It is
a comparatively easy matter to get rid
of the cattle tick in any county where
the proper precautions are taken
through a brief period. The farmers
of every community should get to
gether on this proposition now and
provide for cleaning out the cattle
tick next year in order that they may
engage profitably in the cattle busi
ness.
The time is rapidly approaching for
state and county fairs all over Geor
gia, and according to information re
ceived by the Department of Agricul
ture, some magnificent exhibits will be
made this year, both from the stand
point of the results obtained and from
that of education along agricultural
lines. The department is enthusias
tically interested in these fairs and
appeals to all farmers and members

HITES ODD FELLOWS
At a cabinet meeting of the Grand
Lodge officers of the grand jurisdic
tion of Georgia, I. O. O. F., it was or
dered that the I. O. O. F. lofges in
eich county, in Georgia, observe Oc
tober 12th as a day for a grand rally
cf the order, in our state; the pur
poses of which are set forth in a cir
cular letter to the lodges by the grand
master.
Now, therefore, this communication
is published with the end in view to
have a grand convocation of all the
Odd Fellows in Bartow county meet
in Uartersville on the aforesaid day,-
at the court house or in the Odd Fel
lows' hall, at 10 a. in. to carry out in
large measure the instructions of the
giand master as aforesaid, as the law
yers say.
Now', as “eats" are ail important
part of any large gathering of people
who meet to spend the whole day to
gether, it is suggested that the Odd
Fellows with their wives and children
have an oM fashion basket dinner, or
picnic.
Concerning such a dimnefr, tli4re
needs no explanation, as all people
and everybody else know just what
that means. So come along, brothers.
Let s show .Mister Hoover that Bar
tow county still has -‘corn ]>one” and
"taters” aplenty, if she is a little
short on ham.
Another purpose of this meeting, on
October 12th proximo, is to form a
county convention of all the I. O. O. F.
]< dges in the county, which shall be
u permanent institution of the order
for the advancement of benevolence
and charity,
Some of our brothers are going to
the war, other brothers have sons go
ing, so, in a county convention, ways
and means can be best 'put forth to
make our noble and brave boys feel,
come what will, that the folks at home
are ever mindful of them, and that
they are ever ready, and, always,
most willing to show’ their apprecia
tion of the part these boys will take
in the grand and noble task now be
fore them.
