COLUMBUS ROBERTS
Georgia’s greatest need today
is a market for farm products,
says Columbus Roberts, eanui
date for Commissioner of Agri
culture. Mr Roberts is a suc
cessful business man ar well as a
farmer, and can be trusted to
do something practical tor the
Georgia farmer. Elect him Com ;
mmissioner of Agriculture, adv
the United States in modern times.
Thousands of tons will have to be
shipped into the ureas which have
suffered from a lack of rainfall this
vear, some of them which usually
produce surplus hay. The South
usually ships in a lot of hay for con
sumption here. But not this year.
Any surplus will be needed where it
is produced Bermuda, crab grass,
aything of the sort should be saved.
A great deal of forage may be se
cured by cutting corn and feeding as
stover or in the stalk. This can be
done without injury to the ears by
waiting until the ghucks turn brown,
and it will urovide feed which can be
used throughout the winter months.
Conversion into stover is preferable,

FULL
MEASURE
NO LEGISLATION can entirely
take the place of “ old-fashioned 9t
standards of honesty. “Full measure
is more a matter of character than of
law. Our pound has always been
made up of sixteen ounces.
