ADAMS With the strong demand for sweet potatoes at good prices ex-! , which prevailed in 1952 and pected to continue throughout 1953, farmers interested in pro¬ ducing them for market ought to begin now to assure them¬ selves a good crop. The first and one cf the most important steps is to make ar-' rangements now for a reliable .source of high quality seed stock *or plants. They will be quite scarce due- to low production last year. It is recommended that only certified disease free seed stock or plants be bought, Whether bought or seed stock should be treated as a precaution against disease. ! The seed stock should be treated with corrosive sublimate or Se- ; mesan Bel. Information on treating is available in the j County Agent’s Office, Now is the time to build new or renew old potato seed beds. | Frames should be built or re- paired and any equipment 'needed for an electric hotbed hould be ordered. Detailed instructions on bed building are also available in the office, If an old bed is to be re- viewed all old dirt should be removed and the frame and floor of the bed disinfected by thoroughly wetting with a so- lution of one pint of formal- dehyde to 30 gallons cf water. Disinfecting should be done obout two weeks prior to bed- ding and new dirt should not be P^ced in the bed until just before bedding. This new known be secured to be from free of a j : potato diseases, ^ we &t potatoes recommended for Georgia are the vining and strains of the copper- skinned Puerto Rico, FARMERS START SPRING PLOWING Spring plowing has already started in some parts of Dade County.

In the early days cotton plantations bolstered river traffic. To¬ day peanuts and cotton are leading products with more of the county moving toward cattle raising and planted pastures. Principal industries are peanut shelling, cotton gins, fertilizer mixing, a game bird farm, nursery for ornamental plants, and sawmills. In this and other Georgia counties, the United States Brewers Foundation works constantly to maintain whole¬ some conditions where beer and ale are sold. Close at¬ tention is given areas near camps of the Armed Forces, and both military officials and Georgia law enforcement officers have commended the Foundation’s self-regulation pro¬ gram. Retailer educational meetings offer sound sugges¬ tions for continued operation in the community’s interest.
