DOUGLAS COUNTY SENTINEL, DOUGLASVILLE, GEORGIA South Georgia Crops Best in Years South Georgia farmers will reap the richest harvest on record this year. Corn crop will be large—perhaps fully 25'/c big ger than the nor ral crop of last year. Cotton, while the stand is poor, will produce nearly as many bales as last year. The cane crop is excellent. The acreage is greater and the con- di'ion of plant was never better at this time of the year. There is an enormous acreage in sweet potatoes, and a big yield is assured. Storage houses are being built in many localities to save the crop, which makes cer tain a srtisfactory price, because they can be marketed gradually. Then, too, the Army Camps will take large quantitied of sweet potatoes, as long as the war lasts. Pigs and peanuts go well to gether, and there is good reason —peanuts thrive betterin coastal plain sections of South Georgia than any other part of the South, and is the chepest. and best hog feed known, when harvested bv Mr. Hog himself. The acreage in Georgia this year is many times greater than ever befoie planted. There are meat packing plants in operation, or building at Way- cross, Moultrie, Tifton, Jackson ville, Atlanta and other points. These packing houses provide a market every day in the year for live hogs, and are paying very high prices for good stuff. South G urgiu is the best place on earth for I ho small farmer to make a .start in life. There are many who will make enough on this year’s crop to buy and equip IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THY UNITED STATES, FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT Of GEORGIA In re- f No. 6858 Clifford Deleon Camp, Bankrupt. 1 In Bcnkrupte.
