The Merchant Must Find
A Market For The Farmer
Pres. Andrew M. Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture
Every tiny infant makes life’s per
spective wilier and brighter. And what
ever there is to enhance its arrival aad
to ease and comfort the expectant mother
should be given attention. Among the
real helpful things is an external ab
dominal application known as "Mother's
Friend." There is scarcely a community
but wnnt. has its enthusiastic admirer of
this splendid embrocation. It is so well
thought of by Women who know that most
drug stores throughout the United States
carry "Mother's Friend" ns one of their
staple and reliable remedies. It is applied
to the abdominal muscles to relieve the
strain on ligaments and tendons.
Those who have used It refer to the
ease and comfort experienced during tho
period of expectancy: they particularly
refer to the absence of nausea, often so
prevalent ns a result of the natural
expansion. In a llttlo hook are described
more fully the many reasons why
"Mother's Friend" has been a friend
indeed to women with timely hints, sug
gestions and helps for ready reference, it
should he in all lipines. "Mother's Friend 1 ’

The merchant and the city man
havo encouraged the farmer of tho
South to diversify his crops. It would
now seem essential that they aid him
in finding a satisfactory market for
what ho raises. While farmers of the
South cannot be expected to soon
raise, for instance, enough grain to
make it worth while to construct
warehouses and elevators, it would
seem possible for the merchants to
co-operate, grade and ship in cur-load
lots to the advantage of all parties
concerned.
Should a merchant feel that lie does
not want to disturb his connection
with organizations that supply him
western liny and grain, he must then
cease doing business with the farmer
who has hig diversified farm products
for sale, which he will hardly want to
do if the movement is of any conse
quence in his community.
It is doubtless true that N)e farm
er does not know how to grade and
pack his products for the market. It
will be impossible to teach him Imme
diately, do what we may. Therefore,
as has been suggested, the merchant
who lakes the products may do the
grading and find it worth while. Of
course, a greater part of tho farm
produce that the Southern farmer
will have for sale, will be turned
over to the country merchant in ex
change for goods. The merchant gets
a prollt off of ills goods, of course,
and if lie then will grade and pack
properly for the market, as he can
with several commodities, he will he
In position to make another profitable
transaction.
Much can he accomplished both in
aid of diversification and in market
ing, by boards of trades of towns
and cities. Why should they not
make a census of the possible produ o
for sale in a given trade radius, ob
tain the co-operation of merchants or
farmers for large shipments and di
rect attention of the large dealers to
the business to be obtained? Why
should trade organizations not system
atically wage a campaign of education
about grading and marketing definite
crops suited to a given area?
The State College of Agriculture has
the information, it is perfectly willing
to do everything in its power, but its
resources are, of course, limited and,
only through co-operation with local
organized ugencies cun it accomplish
the largest amount of good. This co
operation il welcomes to the end alone
that tho College may do its educative
work.
Fertilizer Curtailment in 1915.
Albany Herald, .
A man who controls several thousand
acres of farm land in Dougherty coun
ty, and who has given a great deal of
serious thought to the problems con
fronting the Southern farmers this
year, states that whereas he used last
year an averagof six tons of com
mercial fertilizer to the plow, be will
use this year only one ton.
The plan which this thoughtful
planter has worked out for his farming
operations is not materially dilferent
from those of the average farmer. A
few planters may use more than a ton
of commercial fertilizer to the plow,
hut on the other hand there are ninny
who will use none. The result will Lo
a greatly reduced yield of cotton, even
should there be nothing like as great a
curtailment of the cotton acreage as is
forecasted. The industrial and tinan-
t'ial world will await with a great deal
of interest the first Government report
showing the cotton acreage of the
Southern States, hut an entirely new
basis for estimating probable produc
tion will have to be employed, owing to
the enormous retrenchment of planters
in the use of commercial fertilizers.
Cholera Serum Reduced
Dr. W. M. Burson, Prof. Vet. Science,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture.
Beginning with January 1, 1915, tho
price of hog cholera serum manufac
tured by the state at tho College of
Agriculture was reduced so that It
now sells at 1 1-4 cents per cubic
centimeter Instead of 1 1-2 cents. Tho
new price is just half what it was in
1912, when it was first offered for
sale by the state.
Recent reports of demonstration
agents in Georgia who administered
hog cholera serum show 212 herds
treated. Cholera already existed
in these herds. In fact, 410 hogs
had died of the disease before tho sc
rum was administered, and 447 were
sick of It when treated. The total sick
and well treated was 6.629. Of this
number 336 died after treatment. The
percentage lost was 5.09 and the per
centage saved was 91.91.
Champion Pig Of The Pig Clubs
James E. Downing, Organizer Pig
Clubs, Georgia State College
Of Agriculture.
The champion pig club boy of Geor
gia is Evans Jackson, Madison, It. F.
D. 4. His record shows that lie pur
chased a pure bred pig six weeks old
for $7.50. He fed it $10.25 worth of
feed and when it was ten months old
it weighed 320 pounds. It look (lie
sweepstakes prize at the state
fair and he values it at
$00.00, which it is well worth.
Oil this basis his profit is $42.25. Be
sides this he won prizes mid a schol
arship to tho short course of the Col
lege worth considerably more. The
gains in weight for ills pig cost 3.4
cents per pound. A circular has been
issued by the college for use of the
members of tho pig clubs. It tells
how to join and carry on the work.
What The Corn Club Boys
Are Doing And Can Do
Pres. Andrew M. Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture
A wife will insist that the husband
shall not go out of the house cold, raw
days without two undershirts, a liver
pad and a muffler on, in addition lo
his regular clothes. Yet as soon as he
is safely dow n town she will rush out
of the hot kitchen bare-headed and
bare-armed to hang out clothes, so as
to get ahead of the woman next door;
or, she will tramp off down town and
from house to house to work up some
society or church enterprise with noth
ing on her head but a little saucepan of
a hat, and shoes, no thicker than a
newspaper, isn't this so?—Jones Coun
ty News.

owner saw our ad. of last week and
came for the hen. He couldn’t catch
Iter and wo didn’t have the money to
pay him for her, so we just traded him
a subscription to The Times for her.
So that hen is ours now and the titles
are perfectly good. We have reformed
her a little, too. She is now roosting
in the chicken house and associating

More than 113 boys in Georgia be
longing to the corn club made over
100 bushels of corn to the acre dur
ing tiie past year. They are remark
able yields, but they have been certi
fied to by disinterested and reliable
citizens. The Bureau of Crop Esti
mates of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture reports that there
had been a falling off in yields owing
to the protracted drouth of the spring
of last year. It is, therefore, the more
remarkable that the very high yields
should be obtained during an adverse
year. It shows that with proper meth
ods of preparation of the. land and
proper cultivation, large crops can be
grown in spite of drouths.
By all means encourage the hoy to
join the corn club. Get the acre in
the best of shape and let him go in
for a record-breaker yield this year.
The ever-increasing usefulness and
value of the boys’ corn clubs is amply
demonstrated and their work must
prove a source of inspiration to every
progressive farmer. No doubt it is
impractical to quadruple tile yield of
corn in the Southeastern slates in a
single year, but it. certainly is possible
to double the yield with a result which
could not be correctly estimated on a
dollars and cents basis. That the corn
crop of tiie South will materially in
crease from year to year is shown by
what lias been accomplished within
the last decade, and just as soon as a
large enouglt number of the boys who
are now members of tiie clubs come
into possession of the landed areas of
tiie state, they will proceed by reason
of the success they have had to in
crease the yield of corn and tho area
of land devoted to it until an adequate
supply of this essential cereal is raised
for all the purposes in which it can
be devoted profitably in the South.
Boys with records are a valuable as
set to any community because they il
lustrate something well worth while.
They show how theories can lie trans
lated from tiie realm of possibility into
concrete results. They constitute in
fected areas of new ideas in tho com
munities in which they reside. Their
example is sooner or laler emulated
by their friends and neighbors, and
the repuiation they establish for them
selves and ilie locality they represent
becomes one of its most valued and
treasured assets. All honor to the
hoys who are leading the vanguard in
the fight for the rejuvenation of agri
cultural praciice in tiie South.

Incubation And
Brooding Of Chicks
Roy F. Irvin, Poultryman, Georgia
State College of Agriculture.
Hatch the chicks early by use of
the incubator. Early-hatched birds
are strong and lay eggs iri the fail
and winter when the price is high.
Late-hatched birds do not amount to
much as layers. They are weaker and
not successful as money-makers.
How to get the chicks hatched in
the winter and how to take care of
them is the subject of a bulletin just
I issued by the College of Agriculture,
which can be obtained by merely writ
ing for it.
i it is possible for this state to pro
duce its own chickens and eggs and
pave some to sell. Those who would
enter the poultry business and suc
ceed must have special knowledge.

cations.

Market Standard
For Hay and Grain
The Agronomy Division of the
Georgia State College of Agriculture
has issued a placard 13x24 inches in
size entitled “Market Standards for
Georgia Hay and Grain." These pla
cards are being posted at country
stores, court houses and public places I
over the state for the benefit of the |
farmers who need education in meth
ods of grading hqy and grain this
year especially, that they may dis
pose of crops other than cotton to a
disadvantage.
The suggestions in tiie placard are
based on regulations applying in the
markets generally with variations to
apply to hay crops that are grown in
Georgia, but are not listed in hay mar
ket centers, it is expected to give
the farmer a knowledge that will eu
able him to get the best possible price
for his hay and grain crops.
