RURAL REHABILITATION
ADS BALDWIN FARMERS
— we Given Help In
Providing Subsistence to Families.
There is no phase of relief work
which has elicited more interest in
Baldwin county than rural rehabili
tation, and It is a matter of gratifi
cation that 90 per cent who have
been given help in establishing them
selves and their families on farms
are reported to have co-rperated
the plan designed to give them a
“comeback" in providing subsistence
which seemingly would be denied
them otherwise.
Through adverse conditions many
in Baldwin county have been unable
to provide for themselves, and when
rural rehabilitation was begun in
1934, sixteen families in this county
were supplied with necessary farm
implements, mules, cows and hogs,
and each family was allotted a
tain amount monthly for subsistence.
The number has been increased, and
today 74 families. 35 white and 39
colored, are benefiting through gov
ernment assistance.
“Just how will the government
be repaid?" is a auestion frequent
ly asked Farm Supervisor B. A.
t UNION-1
Willingham.
Mr. Willingham states that the v
proceeds of money crops grown by
clients on rehabilitation rolls are ap
plied against their accounts, and the
money furnished « paid back in this
manner. Collections have been very
good up to date this year, Mr. Wil
lingham states, and ifie accounts
still open, not all cash crops
having been harvested.
Operations cn rehabilitated farms
■e on a three-year basis, and
counts which are not paid in full
carried over.
Mr. Willingham says all the fam
ilies on the rehabilitated farms have
made sufficient com to carry them
until harvesting time next year and
that they have svrup, peas, pota
toes, etc., sufficient to supply them
through the winter.
All the families on the rehabilitat
ed farms are interested in their work
and at the conclusion of the program
will make substantial profitable
fanners.
State and county taxes are open at
the office of Mrs. L. D. Smith, Tax
Collector.
Jimmie RaiTord, Negro, has a relic
cn display at the fair. It is a snare
drum, which his father beat when
the Baldwin Blues, under command
of Gen. George Doles, left Milledge-
ville for the front, during the early
days of the War Between the States.
Mr. Sterling Ethridge, takes great
interest in the affairs of the Ccop-
erville Baptist church of which he
has been a member for many years.
He seldom, if ever, misses attend
ing a preaching services held there.

In terms of obvious value this new Ply
mouth is sensational. It is longer, wider,
roomier; it is also lower than the previous

i give the car a generally more massive look.
In its fundamental engineering this new
1936 Plymouth is a perfected continuatior
of the previous model. Wheelbase is 113
inches. The Floating Ride has been perfect

body has new reinforcing for rigidity and
has new quietness. Hydraulic brakes reach
