Monday by the presence of Miss
Ida Ash and Miss Oreliu Bell,

sick list for the past week, but be
is again able to be out to the de¬
light of his many friends.
We are sorry to know of the
death of Rev. R. M. Ash. Mr.

who knew him. He was a minis¬
ter of the gospel and took great de¬
light in the work, until recent
years when his health failed him,
and while he has not preached
much of late he loved to talk of the
blessed savior. He said be was go¬
ing to see Jesus, and told those
around him to meet him in the
better world. Twelve of his child¬
ren, his wife, and a number of his
friends vvere at his bedside when
he fell asleep. We sympathize
with all the bereaved in the loss of
papa, husband and friend.

Will you allow me space in your

the good people for their kindness
during the sickness of my wife. I
have not got language to express
my gratitude for their kindness to
us. Hoping that God’s richest
blessing may rest upon them all.

CLEVELAND, GEORGIA, JUNE 23 , 1916 .
Banks Show County To Be Prosperous.
The three banks in White county
decidedly prove the county to be
in a healthful financial stale judging
by the statements published in our
columns last week.
According to sworn statements,
which the laws of the state require
shall be published from time to
time, there was on deposit in these
banks at the close of business on
the 6th day of June, a total of
$139,452.27. Of this amount
$61.432 04 was on deposit subject
to be checked out any time, and
$78,020.23 was on time deposit, or
loaned to tlie banks and drawing
interest.
In addition to this total of $139,-
452.27 the banks carried undivided
profit belonging to the stockhold¬
ers, $10,200.69, making a total
JS149,652.96.
White county has this $61,432.04
with which to carry on business,
but tlie $78,020.23 has been loaned
to the banks for a term of six or
t welve months as the owners had
no need for it and preferred to get
Vlie interest on it rather than to in¬
vest it.
It should be quite gratifying to
know that there is so much money
in the county at this season when
there is less business activity than
at any other season of the year.

Boys’and Girls’Short Courses
Prize Winners In Club Contests To
Spend Ten Days At Collefle
August 8-18
(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga.
State College Of Agriculture.)
The annual Boys’ and Girls’ Short
Course will he held at the Georgia
Btate College of Agriculture August
8-18, 1916. It is expected that about
300 boys and girls who have won
scholarships to this short course will
come to Athens, enjoy themselves and
at the same time acquire useful in¬
formation and an inspiration that will
do them good for the remainder ol
their lives.
Preparations have been made to take
the very best care of the boys and
girls. They will find rooms at the
University dormitories and use the
University dining mom, athletic
grounds, gymnasium and, in fact, will
hate, everything the University pos¬
sesses at their disposal. The courses
of instruction will be given at the Ag¬
ricultural College. These courses will
he interesting, practical and suited to
students at the age of boys and girls.
While attending the Short Course
the boys and girls will be under strict
supervision of those appointed to have
charge of t«hem, and such regulations
will prevail as (hat parents may be
assured I hat their children are well
looked after.
The scholarships held by the boys
and girls should pay railroad fare and
board while in Athens. Parents should
encourage their children to make use
of the scholarships. It will mean
much to them, it may mean the
turning point in their lives. Determi¬
nations may he made which will ulti¬
mate in the achievement of great pur¬
poses, and it will doubtless be a mem
01 able occasion for all.
Not only is the Short Course open
for girls and boys who hold scholar¬
ships, but other girls and boys who
are properly recommended by county
agents, may register and take advan¬
tage of the course. They must, of
course, pay ttieir own railroad fares
and board while in Athens.
The Short Course for girls and boys
was changed from mid-winter to Au¬
gust in the belief that it would not
Amir suit the girls and boys better, but
In order to better take care of them
at the College of Agriculture than is
possible while school is in session.
For further information a letter di¬
rected to the College of Agriculture
will bring a circular or a personal
letter.
Build a Silo

in which to provide succulent feed for
winter use.
2. Silage Is the best supplement to
short pasturage.
3. Silage can be placed in silo at
a cost not exceeding that of shocking
and shredding.
4. Silage is the only form In which
the entire plant is fed.
5. Silage can be put up without
regard to weather.
6. Silage has from 5 to 15 per cent
higher feeding value than the crop
stored in any other form.
7. Silage of good quality can be
fed with less waste than dry fodder
pr hay.
8. Silage is relished more than any
form of dry fodder.
9. Silage has a beneficial effect on
the digestive organs,
10. Silage enables an acre to carry
more live stock than any other meth¬
od.
11. Silage crops are taken off of
land early, permit tipg early seeding
of cereals.
12. Silage can be stored at less
housing cost per ton than any other
roughage.
13. Siiage is principally a cattle
feed, hut within certain limits may
be fed to other animals.
14. Silage means more feed per
acre than any other way.
If you need assistance in construct¬
ing a silo, write the College at once
and an expert will serve you as soon
as possible.

Some Interpretations Of The
Smith-Lever Extension Act
(ANDREW M. SOULE, President Ga. State College Of Agriculture.)
Extension teaching is defined hi
Section 1 of the Smith-Lever Act as
an effort “to aid in the diffusing among
the people of the United States useful
and practical information on subjects
relating to agriculture and home eco¬
nomics, and to encourage the applica¬
tion of the same.” It is provided that,
pending the inauguration and develop¬
ment of the co-operative extension
work, nothing in the Smith-Lever Ex¬
tension Act shall be construed as dis¬
continuing the farmers’ co-operative
demonstration work which has already
been in progress in Georgia several
years, Fifty thousand dollars a year
have been available from this source
for some time past and this appropri¬
ation has been wisely continued up to
the present time. It is well to bear
in mind that the state is expected to
offset the above fund through local
subscriptions just as definitely as the
funds are available under the Smith
Lever act. This statement will, no
doubt, clarify the situation for many
and will explain why the counties are
called on to appropriate funds to aid
in defraying the salaries and expenses
of both men and women county agents.
Moreover, since the passage of the
Smith-Lever Act, the Slates Relation
Service has been established by Act
of Congress. This office is intended
to act as a clearing house between
the United States Department of Ag¬
riculture and the agricultural colleges
in the several states. Since many bu¬
reaus of the United States Department
of Agriculture have funds at their
disposal for expenditure on various
projects to be coiuiwcl&i io associa
tion with the state colleges of agri¬
culture, the usual half and half basis
adopted as a polief by Congress and
the United States Department of Ag¬
riculture, Georgia, for instance, is ex¬
pected to offset at the present time
over $85,000 of what may be termed
indirect congressional appropriations,
or see the funds withheld and used
elsewhere. Since the above appropri¬
ations are being increased from time
to time, it is reasonable to suppose
that the state will always be called
upon to finance extension projects out
of the money provided by local sub¬
scriptions aside from those set aside
by the General Assembly of the state
to offset the Smith-Lever act.
The work which may be properly
conducted under the terms of the
Smith-Lever not is definitely stated in
Section 2, which reads as follows :
"That co-operative agricultural exten¬
sion work shall consist of the giving
twstjwftttida and, jrwUoai demonstra¬

tion in agriculture and home econom¬
ics to persons not attending or resi¬
dent in said colleges in the several
communities, and imparting to such
persons information on said subjects
through field demonstrations, publica¬
tions and otherwise; and this work
shall be carried on in such manner as
may be mutually agreed upon by thp
Secretary of Agriculture and the state
agricultural colleges receiving the
benefits of this act.”
From the context of the preceding
paragraph, it appears that co-operative
agrieulttiral extension work shall con¬
sist primarily in giving instruction,
and, second, practical demonstrations
in agricultural and home economics
to persons non-resident at the agricul¬
tural college. The teaching work pro¬
vided for shall be made clear through
field and home demonstrations, publi¬
cations and otherwise. Correspond¬
ence, of course, may often be con¬
ducted to advantage, and personal con¬
ferences be held with an individual
or a group of persons. It. is expected
that the county agent shall be a prop¬
erly educated and qualified expert in
agriculture or home economics, and so
capable of diffusing essential informa¬
tion of benefit, to all the activities re¬
lating to the school, the farm and the
home. The agent should be essential¬
ly a teacher and must work with and
through the schools, thus aiding mate¬
rially in laying the proper foundation
on which to build up scientific elemen¬
tary instruction in agriculture and
home economics, and so successfully
correlate the activities of the school
room to those of the home—a funda¬
mental undertaking, the importance of
which every thoughtful person is al¬
ready fully convinced.
The county agents should be prima¬
rily regarded as a teacher and adviser
to all of the people of the county,
whether they are attending school of
at work in the field or the home. He
should be capable of rendefing most
valuable service and aid to the school
teachers through the county school
commissioner and the county board
of education, and through the adult
population through personal contact
with them as they follow their voca¬
tions in the field and in the home.
Funds appropriated to aid in the main¬
tenance of the county agents from
whatever source derived would seem
to constitute a just and legitimate ex¬
penditure of public money available
for education or for the promotion of
any public service work performed
in the interest of all of the peopl#
i of the county. . , .. ^
