Homes Burned

and the W. 11 P irker residence, oc
cupied by Dr. J. H. | Dugg«n, were
destroyed Friday afternoon by lire
which threatened the entire uptown
section of Irwiat, n.
Firefighting was made difficult
because the wells in town are almost
dry. The houses are so close togeth
er iu this part of town that it is easy
f>r the flames to reach from one to
the other.
A good part of the furnishings
of both houses were saved.
The law office building of Mr J
Flemii g Bloodworth, the homes of
Mr George Everett. Mr Fred Everett,
Judge J E. Budercaught fire sever
al times. Merchants hauled their
goods away from the stores Hun
dreds of people from neighboring
towns came ia time to help.

There is a change in everything from one season to another.
A different feeling goes with each of the four seasons. In the

desire for something more solid to eat.

Sow Hairy Vetch
Farmers can increase the yield of
corn l > bnsluls an acre in an or
dinary season by sowing; hairy vetch
in the full on the land they will plant
to corn the land they will plant
to corn the next spring. The vetch
grows through the winter and early
spring then is turned under and the
land planted to corn. No crop is lest
while making this gain in fertility.
The lb bushels increase in yield
made by the vetch costs the corn
grower around thirty cents a bnsbel.
The bonkers of Georgia through
their Agricultural Committee. C. 0.
Carpenter, Chinnan, and H M. Cot
trell, Agriculturist, are using their
influence to get farmers througout
the state to sow hairy vetch this fall
on the land to be planted to corn
next spring. Every bank in stake
is asked to induce at least 200 farmer
customers to sow' vetch for this pur
pose.
When land is sowed in vetch every
fall, the fertility of the soil steadily
improves until the yields become <0
bushels or more an acre. The aver
age yield of corn in Georgia during
the past 10 years has been around 1-
bushels an acre.
A etch seed must be properly treet
ed to insure a heavy growth. Vetch
seldom fails to thrive in an ordinary
season when the seed is properly
treated. Nine out of ten failures
with vetch is because the seed is not 1
treated in the right way before plant- !
ing. Treatment i« easy and simple. '
Ask your County Agent or the
Georgia State College of Agriculture, 1
Athens. Georgia, how to prepare the
l.md and treat and plant vetch seed.
Then you need make no mistake-
Georgia specially needs two things: '
larger annual incomes for her farm- 1
terested in the school are urged to be
present Monday and help give the
term a good sendoff.

ers and enough good farmers with
, capital to come into the state to
cultivate her tdea lands. Sowing
hairy vetch to make corn pay w ill
help to supply both needs.
Hairv vetch makes corn a piolr
ahle crop The farmer who uses it
need not. send his cotton or robaeco
money outside the state to buy gram
for his wor' ; stock but can use the’
monew at home for othr purposes.
Georgia's average yield of J 2 bush
els of corn an acre has m l will keep
skillful farmers with capital from
locating on our idle lad is It indi
cates to the home seeking frmer
poor soil and unfavorable climate or
both.
The yield may be increased in a
single year to 3(1 bushels an acre By
he use of hairy vetch and to 4bush
els or more by suing a moderate quan
tity of fertilizer on the vetch -d land.
Such yields will attract attention of
home seekers from ail over tne corn
belt and be a strong inducement for
them to locate in Georgia.
Florida business concerns during
the past few weeks have bought
several hundred thousand dollars
worth of Georgia land, all it in the
st uthern part of the state. Real
estate men in Atlanta who foresaw
Florida boom and loaned lots of
money there to help start it say now
that Georgia is rapidly coming in for
the same thing and that settlers will
soon be flo king here in droves. We
have two great advantages over
Florida -a comfortable twelve
month climate and productive soil.
People will eome here to stay.
