There were seven ladies anil ihirty iivc married women at the Georgia i'owi r cooking school Friday afternoon no gentlemen present —however Edd rowan and 11. G. Parham bung around until they could tell plain as day that nobody hud called them. The seven buiies present were Misses Mary Stan di, Mary Hays, Lucy Gleaton, Liliiaiy Plunkett, Maud McCulla. Emma Rea iii, and Cara Lou Elliott. They didn’t exactly need a range yet, but if they ever do need one, it won’t be 110 wood* burner. The thirty-five married wom en who went down to get something to cat and take a chance on getting an electric percolhtor, electric toaster, electric ham and vegetable and des : ort dis were Mesdaines Carl Sims, Louis Downs' Ben Willingham, Tom Elliot I. .1.

B. Robins, Ida Sum ners, Mary Brand. Fortunately for us, our wife didn’t draw no ham and vegetable preserver and there will be no change made at our house on account of “economy” or electricians. We never will believe in economy until they quit sending out beautiful women as "economist” —you cannot economise with a beautiful woman. Mrs. L. J. Pharr drew the percolator, Mrs. S. J. Kelly drew a toaster, Mrs. B. F. Tucker drew a ham and vegetable contraption and so did Mrs. 11. H. Klliott. Mrs. Joe While drew a dessert dish (peach pol l.v i. We don’t wish to tell Edd Cow an and Mr. Parham how to sell things, but will intimate that if they had kept our wives at home and invited us men around, Miss Burke would have sold ‘-very last one of us a couple of ranges a piece. Mr. L. K. Starr, director of public relations for the Georgia Power Cos. lias been requested to lend us a cut of Miss Burke and also of Mr. Cowan, but on the verge of going to press, neither has been received. Through the purchase of the Hard wick store room by Mr. K. O. Gailey, a.djoining, the Georgia Power Cos. has been enabled to double their al ready commodous' plant in Conyers and at tin* same time more Dr. P. J. Brown's office and parlors from the rear to the front —a great convenience to his practice and patrons. Mr. Gai le.v remodeled this entire store room inside and out and installed water works and latest system of electrical lighting in keeping with his ever pro gressive leadership. Coyners is very proud of the progressive leadership of Mr. Gailey and the Georgia Power Cos. and* we may expect furtlier improve ments in the near future at their hands. When you buy from these peo ple. you get satisfaction thrown in free, along with full value goods. 30 Bales of Cotton on 10 njres Land Wo used to make 10 bales of cotton per plow on thirty acres of land while the National Gold Medal prize went to the man who made 30 bales on 10 acres of land, A bale per acre is the only salvation and relief for the farm er. The United States Department of Agriculture figures the cost of produc tion on a basis of a bale per acre at Se per pound, as against* 18c on basis of the old standard of one hale on three acres. The average production last year over the entire cotton belt was a hale to every three acres of land, or liSc per pound for production cost. The long sought for agricultural relief has arrived and just as we expected it would, which is by way of intelligent farming. Why cultivate three acres j of land to make one bale that cost! ISc per pound to make, when you can j make it on one acre and for Sc perl pound by using the same fertilizer on I the one acre that you used to use ou II tlnee acres. Ihe ten leading farmers | of Georgia did even belter Ilian ibis lust year, averaging belter ilmn two bubs per acre at a production 'ost •>. 4 l-2c per pound. The counties repre sented in tills group were Carroll, Madison, Chattooga, Cobb. Walton, Frank!in. Oconee, Gordon, Crisp and Jackson. No particular section favor ed, proving /'that jlroductlon results come from intelligent fanning and not from "luck” or "legislation.” Rock dale county had ,”>4 five acre contest ants to finish, with an average of one bale and thirty pounds jier acre. New ton county had 11 contestants who made an average of one bale and sixty one pounds per acre. Mr. 11. (. Loyd of Newton county, lead in profitable production with 20 acres and 20 bales, using 300 pounds of 8-8-5 fertilizer and 75 pounds sulphate ammonia side dressing—however, lie was not a con testant. Edd L. Peek led Rockdale contestants in production with one bale and 280 pounds per acre, using 000 pounds 12-4-4 and 300 pounds soda as a side dressing tier acre. Mr. J. O. M.

Plant a Good Staple Cotton We have just received a ear load of the famous Mis sissippi Pi Delta and Pineland, No, 4 Cotton Seed. This cotton has been grown in Rockdale and adjoin ing counties for the past two years and has given perfect satisfaction from a stand point of produc tion, lint yield and staple. From 1250 to 1300 pounds of dry seed cotton you can get 500 pounds of lint. This cotton won for Rockdale county in the state con test at the state college of agriculture last year, the first prize for growing the best staple cotton of any county in the state. I his cotton staples inch to 1 1-10 inch and always brings a higher price than the short er varieties. Because of its excellent quality of staple. * e are very anxious that the farmers grow a good staple cotton in the territory in which we buy cotton. This saves us going west to buy our cotton and thereby enables us to pay the farmer a higher price for his cotton in the local market. I hese seed are put up in 100 pound bags and are worth $5.50 per bag, which is what these seed actually cost us in car load lots and can f>e secured from \\. O.
