Cottonseed Products
Prices Are Increased
H. L. Wingate Says
“An increase in the price of
cottonseed products has just
been announced in Washington,”
Georgia Farm Bureau President
H. L. Wingate stated this week
upon his return to Macon head
quarters after conferring with
' government officials in the na
j tional capitol. “This,” he con
tinued, “should give our farm
ers not less than S6B per ton
for cottonseed with prospects
of reaching $70,” which is the
amount demanded by Farm Bu
reau leaders from the cotton
growing states.
For the past several months,
the farm bureau leader has been
in constant touch with 0P A
and Department of Agriculture
officials in Washington in an
attempt to secure a boost in the
price of oil and linters which,
he added, “has not been in line
with the price paid by farmers
j for other by-products of this
commodity, meal and hulls.”
“This has been a long, hard
I struggle,” Wingate continued.
The increase granted by Wash
ington officials for cottonseed
products include 3 cents per
: pound for linters, and cottonseed
oil from 12 5-8 cents to 14 3-8
cents per pound. The Farm Bu
reau leaders from cotton grow
। ing states requested an increase
of 15 cents per pound for oil,
Wingate said.
ACCOMMODATING
Maryville, Mo.—Rural mail
carriers are accommodating
persons, as proved by Raymond
Barry, rural mail carrier, who
recently found a half dozen
' eggs, a letter and a note in a
box on his route. The note read:
i “Mailman, I didn’t have any
I change this morning so would
you sell this half dozen eggs to
get a stamp for this letter? With
’ what is left, bring me about six
-postcards and the rest in 3-cent
stamps. Thanks.” He obliged.
The team that doesn’t play to
win but plays the game on prin
ciples, usually loses.

NOTICE TO PULPWOOD
PRODUCERS
Many complaints have been
made to the County Commis
sioners about people cutting
pulpwood and leaving tops and
limbs in the roads. It is re
spectfully requested that all such
trash be removed from the high
ways so the roads can be main
tained. It is impossible for the
roads to be worked with tops
and limbs from trees left in the
roads.
All citizens of the county are
invited to assist the county au
thorities in keeping the roads
clear in order that all roads may
be worked as often as possible.
This will be appreciated.

During the war you heard a lot
