Very few citieH and towns and t’mlr
suburbs are not in need of more.shade
trees, or the more systematic arm mo
ment and care of them. The fall ad
winter is the time for city and wn
officials to make arrangements for ilia
enhancement of the town’s v: le.
Plant trees that are best suited to
roadway conditions, that are long liv
ed and will remain as landmark in
the town, and where possible p nt
each street and avenue to ono apt- do
of tree. Some of the trees that an
he recommended for planting u er
average Georgia conditions are White
Elm, Red Elm, Cork Elm, Ginkgo, Nor
way Maple, Red Maple, Water Oak,
Pin Oak, Live Oak, Tulip Poplar, and
Sycamore or Plane Tree.
Counting demonst rating farmers and
■ ii wives, co-operating farmers, boys
girls’ club members, traveling ex
its nnd^tho college staff, there are
.100 Georgia people lined up to do
me dofinftov work for the improve-
mt of agricultural conditions in
CALF CLUBS OF^ GEORGIA.
A movement has been launched by
he Department of Animal Husbandry
>f the Georgia State College of Agri
culture to organize 'calf clubs. To
make it possible -Wr as fiiany to be
long to the cluiis as possible, ihfi con
lent that will'first be promoted will,
be on feeding grade calves. The
boys showing the best records of
handling and feeding for a given pe
riod will win prizes. Exhibitions are
to be made at county, state and other
important fairs in the state.

Georgia Pig Clubs
Georgia has 2,000 pig club members
located in 76 counties. At. the South
eastern Fair at Atlanta they had 91
pigs on exhibition. At the State Fair
they had 111 pigs and at thy Georgia-
Florida Fair at Valdosta they had 35.
At forty-five county fairs they had an
average of about eight pigs to the
fair. Sixty-five prizes were won at
the three large fairs mentioned in
cluding four junior and Uireo grand
championships. Grady county won
most prizes, Fulton county the most
money with Bibb third. All except
three c unties exhibiting won some
prize. The boys entered the open ring
and exhibited against all breeders and
won at tlio fairs mentioned nearly a
thousand dollars of prizes.
The practice of following cotton
with co-ton is considered a poor farm
ing practice, but in weevil territory
it is considered dangerous to the crop.
The College of Agriculture is urging
through county agents and others that
the farmer be persuaded as far as
possible to use cotton fields for other
crops and put the cotton where it did
not grow tho previous year.

It has come to the attention of the
authorities of the Georgia State Col

States Department of Agriculture has
highly recommended the cotton

of other states. A prominent farmer

Why Not Have
Perfect Lenses?
Improvements and better
ments in glasses are just as
frequent as in anything else.
Until a few years ago all
lenses were flat, because no
one had thought of a better
way to make them.
Today nearly 90 per cent of
lenses fitted are Torie lenses,
curved to follow the shape of
tha eyeball.
Tories give a perfect range of vis
ion from every angle—the edges do
not confuse you when looking from
the corner of the eye.
Let us demonstrate the many ad
vantages of Tories made by us.
Some cf the bulletins and circulars
recently issued by the College of Agri
culture and arc for free distribution
are as follows: “Cotton Production
Under Boll Weevil Conditions,” “Min
imizing Boll Weevil Damage Through
Proper Cultivation and Fertilization,”
"Oat Production in Georgia,” “Con
trolling the Pecan Case-Bearer,”
“Beautifying the Georgia Homo,” “Im
proving the Woodlot,” “Slaughtering
and Curing Meat, on the Farm,” “Grow
ing Seedling Trees,” “Cantaloupe Pro
duction in Georgia,” “Peanuts as a
Substitute for Cotton,” “Suggestions
on Marketing Live Stock,” “Farm
Changes Under Boll Weevil Condi
tions.”

of preparedness.
Farmers’ Institutes
Three or four teams of college ex
perts go on the rood in Georgia after
school closes to hold farmers’ insti
tutes. Through this effort institutes ,
are held in the summer in practically ,
every county. In recent years the
burden of the message of these men
has been "Preparedness for the Boll
Weevil.” ;
Farm’s Short Course And Conferences
The annual Farmer’s Short Course
has been designed to meet boll weevil
problems as well as to better farming
conditions in general. A short course .
for farm machinery dealers has been
added to help solve new problems aria- j
ing through varying farm practices. |
A short course for farm women to j
better inform them how to grow veg-!
etables, and fruits and how to pro-[
serve them, how to raise poultry sue-!
cessfully, etc., is considered as offer
ing something to aiding in meeting dif- j
Acuities incident to a departure from
all-cotton cropping.

Cotton Seed Selection
Realizing that desirable cotton seed
for planting would be scarce and that
mistakes were likely to be made in
planting the wrong seed in boll wee
vil territory, the College of Agricul
ture has had a survey made of the
state to locate all the desirable seed
, possible that will be for sale. By this
means county agents and farmers In
general are put in touch with farm
ers having selected seed for sale. The
entire state has been covered by this
