TO THE EDITOR
I am writing you about send¬
ing your paper to my husband,
who is in Karlsbere, Germany,
with th*e Army. His tour oi
duty there Ls forty-two months.
We are planning on joining
him as soon as possible, which
will be about the last of Sep¬
tember or first of October and
we will enjoy the paper. We
can read all the news about
the people we know.
We have been at Ft. McClel¬
lan, Ala., for a little over a
year, just never got around to
subscribing to the paper. But
being where we can’t come
home for a long time we would
appreciate your sending it.
We are from Rising Fawn,
have two boys, one girl, last
baby born on July 5th.

(Formerly Virginia Riddles)
Winter Is Coming!
Soon we'll tear off a sheet of the calendar and
see September staring us in the face.
And with it the schools will open again and the
harvest will begin. With the cooler weather will
come increased business and stepped-up activity.
The clashing of pads and cheers of school chil¬
dren will be heard on the football field.
Your child will need school supplies and your car
radiator will be ready for anti-freeze again. The
mountain roads will become icy so the tires w*ill have
to be checked to make sure they’re safe.
Like setting up the idler on your carburetor, the
activity will increase everywhere. Vacations wdll be
over until next year and we will be thinking only of
work and fun, of Hallowe’en and Thanksgiving and
Christmas.
We at The Dade County Times will also be
busier. So when you need letterheads, envelopes,
cards or whatever your printing need, put in your
order as soon as you can so we may have it ready
when you need it.
We will continue to give you best in printing.

THE DADE COUNTY TUVffiS, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 14, 1952
Mr. and Mrs. John Tatum,
of Wildwood, are the proud
parents of a newly-arrived
boy.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Proc¬
tor, of Chattanooga, announce
the birth of a daughter, Au¬
gust 7. Mrs. Proctor is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe
Harris.
A seven-pound boy, Frederick
Lee, was delivered to Mr. and
Mrs. D O Chumley, of Davis,
Wednesday evening, August 6.
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Logan of
New Salem announce the birth
of a baby girl August 3 at the
Wildwood Sanitarium.
The members of the delega¬
tion to the State 4-H Confer¬
ence in Milledgeville next week
are eagerly looking forward to
the occasion.
Kathryn Fricks has been
nominated by the state for Se¬
cretary of the Georgia 4-H
Council, which is quite an
honor. The Dade delegation
will be pulling for her and will
do everything possible to get
elected.
Kathryn was President of
the North Georgia 4-H Council
last year. She further brought
Dade distinction by winning
the Senior Public Speaking
award at the North Georgia
4-H Achievement meeting in
Athens in June. Ray Bobo also
took first place in Public
Speaking, being the winner in
the boys division while Kath-
dyn was girl’s winner.
Jackie Wilson was edged out
as Junior Public Speaking win¬
ner only by a small margin.
Her delivery of her speech was
rated tops of all the partici¬
pants but she failed to have as
adequate a “record” prepared,

We find nearly all the poul- 1
ty flocks that we have visited J i
in Dade County are infested
with lice. Lice are a source of
great annoyance to the hen
and are the cause of a slump in
egg production now when eggs
are high. i
The extra pound of feed ne¬
cessary to feed a hen in order
that she may maintain a good
healthy body for the lice to
feed on is enormous. The num¬
ber of dollars paid out to feed
lice on poultry is also enor¬
mous.
A hen may be rid of lice for
less than Vt cent per hen. So¬
dium Fluoride, the wonder
chemical, will completely rid
your chickens of lice if used
according to directions. Sodium
Fluoride comes in a powder
form which may be dusted on
the hen’s body. Two applica¬
tions at 10 to 15 days inter¬
vals will do the job. One pound
of this material, sufficient to
dust 100 hens, can be pur¬
chased for 50 or 60 cents.
A good feeding prgoram will
pay off. Laying flocks should
be fed all the laying mash they
will eat and should have a
grain feed once per day. Feed
all the grain the hen will clean
up about one hour before they
go to roost. Plenty of fresh
clean water should be kept be¬
fore the hens at all times.
All roosters should be re¬
moved from the laying flock.
Infertile eggs will stay fresh
longer and the feed consumed
by the rooster will be saver for
more egg production.
listing achievements and hon¬
ors, as some of the others so
she had to take second spot.
Peggy Renfroe and Jo Ann
Steele were elected as girl de¬
legates to the Conference,
which will be held Aug. 18-22.

Steele. Lawrence Woodyard

depend a great deal on the
community committeemen who
are voted in at these elections.
The concentration of Agri¬
cultural Conservation Program
operations in 1953 on the pro¬
blems of individual farms adds
to the need for able commit¬
teemen. Committeemen will be
expected to help each farmer
I in determining the conserva-
1 tlon needs on his farm and in
making the most effective use
! of ACP assistance and available
' services in carrying out most
needed practices.
Since this program has to do
with the protection and im¬
provement of the soil and con¬
servation of water on the
farms of Dade county, com¬
munity committeemen are in a
key position in the fight for
continued production.
The chairman urges farmers
in each community in Dade
County to look over the field
carefully and make sure that
farmers are elected who are
best qualified and who will
have the time to devote to the
job. In the past community
and county committeemen have
been elected who have held
jobs and farmed on the side
who have not had the time to
