PEANUT ACREAGE IN | STATE TO INCREASE Georgia farms will go“oil out” for peanut production next year, with many restrictions removed, T. R. Breedlove, AAA adminis trative officer for Georgia, said this week. In the break-down of produc j tion goals recently set by Secre- I tary of Agriculture Claude Wick ard for American defense and for the aid of other democracies, Georgia’s peanut sights have been set for 1,137,009 acres, Breedlove pointed out. Of the total, he added, only] 547,000 acres will be needed for •mole nut production, compared with 651,000 acres • for all pur poses this year. The “oil out” g< al is 590,000 acres for peanuts for oil crushing to replace im j ports now shut off by war and to i help meet defense needs. In ad j dition, the acreage of peanuts to | be “hogged-off” will be raised I in proportion to Georgia’s in creased p>rk production effort. These g>als. Breedlove declar ed, will make it necessary to in crease Georgia’s peanut acreage by about a half million acres in 1942. To achieve it, he pointed out, Georgia farmers must begin now to lay their farm plans for the year, in order that the neces sary acreage may be released from other crops, “It is easy to see,” Breedlove asserted, “that it will be neces sary that considerable acreage be released from other crops if we are to meet the peanut goal.” To do this, Georgia farmers are being urged to turn now to fall-seeded small grains and other winter cover crops, includ ing legumes for hay or grazing, and thus benefit themselves four fold: (1) Qualify for conserva tion payments under the provis ion for minimum acreage of ero sion-resisting and soil-conserving crops; (2) Produce feed for home use hitherto bought; (3) Prepare their soil for improved yields in future crop years, and (4) Release the land needed for oil ncanut production. While peanut allotments will remain in effect in 1942, Breed love pointed out, farmers may plant as many acres as desired to peanuts, and avert penalties by delivering the nuts grown on ex cess acreage to designated agen- METHODIST ANNOUNCEMENTS Church School—10:15 a. m Morning Worship 11:30 a. m.

J 'flint electric coop, GRANTED EXTENSION FUND L. C. Woolard. manager of the Flint fllectric Membership Cor poration, with headquarters at Reynolds, has announced that Congress passed an additional allotment of $79,000 for the ex pansion of the corporation, The] information was received in aj telegram from Congressman Steve Pace to whom much credit is due for the passing of this al lotment, Mr. Woolard said. The money will make possible the extension of 93 miles of elec tric lines in Houston, Crawford, Macon, Peach, Muscogee, Tay-| lor, Chattahoochee and Marion] counties. This extension will serve 267 additional customers and make the Flint Corporation the largest circuit in the state serving somei two thousand rural families, Mr. Woolard also announced that a new source of current was cut in at Wellston recently to feed into Houston, Peach and Crawford counties. For best results oats should be drilled around October 15 on well prepared land, or in open fur rows or land that has been in tilled crops or lespedeza. cies for crushing, at oil prices. Breedlove advised farm e r si against reducing acreage of pea-- nuts usually hogged-off. On the ] other hand, he urged and in- 1 crease in this acreage, in order to [ further the campaign for greater! hog production next year. I BILLS! BILLS! BILLS!
