year, and a systematic program is
bc-ing worked out by farmers through
out the county as they begin to lay
their plans.
It is generally understood that
there will be an increase in water
melon acreage ah iough the larger
planters will not increase their acre-
uge. The bumper crop last year and
the big price realized have a tendency
to influence the wutcrmcion acreage.
Many farmers believe that the price
will not be quite so good this year
and there might be a chance to over
pLnnt watermelons.
Tobacco will come in for a few i
acres thi- year. The Kiwanis made j
an effort to introduce tobacco to ■
Baldwin a few years ago, but it has
not become a major crop. A few
barns remain and a few farmer* have
realized a profit from the weed crop
qlthough it has been handled on a
dustry in the county while poultry
stock has shown an increase. The
numb.r of dairy cows has grown
through a five year period. The
sour cream market ha* greatly in
creased and many farmers have add
ed the dairy cow to their program.
Advocates of the cow. hog, and
hen plan of relief for agriculture
have seen their theory take root and
It is the belief that there will be a
continual increase in these industries.
Many have the opinion that cotton
acreage will be decreased and other
crops will be grown on a larger scale.
While- there is noconcrotc reason to

grown, the general discussion among

Mr. McCullar’s letter Fs quoted in
part:
You were invited to Georgia be
cause we wanted you to come to
Georgia. We recognize you as being
the most outstanding authority in the
United States on farm relief matter*,
and we believed that a visit from you
would be of tremendous importance
to the Agricultural element of the
South. You at find declined our in
vitation because of a previous en-
gagement, and I immediately wired
Congressman Larsen to adviae you
that we would postpone the dates of
our Convention in order to secure
you as a speaker. This was done.
You very kindly accepted and the
Convention .vas postponed. I think
the mere fact that we postponed an
important Statewide Convention for
the sole purpose of securing you as
a tpeaker should reassure you of the
sincerity of our invitation, and that
no further explanation on this score
is needed.

knew how to give you a cordial re

we did not appreciate Senator Ilar-

of it. I lmve a very high personal
regard for Senator ILorris, »nd I do
not think he would knowingly be per
sonalty discourteous to you or any
one else, but even had ho been right
in the charges he made against you
just a few days prior to your com

was fair to our Association or treat
ed MillcdgeviUe with due regard by
criticising you at that time. While
I hesitate to think that this attack
was made for political purposes, yet
I do not know why it was made at
that time, and I greatly regret Sen
ator Harris’ statement. Certainly on
tho eve of your coming to Georgia
as our guest wa not the time to treat

the Senator realizes that by this time.
