FARM NOTES
It looks like the farmers here
in Chattooga County are going
to make this year the best year
that we have ever had in soil
conservation. It seems that ever
other farmer is improving his
pasture by fertilizing, seeding
and building new pasture fences.
I don’t know whether we will
! set a record for sowing summer
I legumes this spring or not, but
iit seems that almost every farm
er is sowing a few acres of les
pedeza, serecea or Kudz.
We have two terracing outfits
going in the county now and we
could use one or two more. John
Scott over at Gore has one and
Marnell Weems down at Lyerly
has one. Both of these outfits
are working over on Little Sand
Mountain now and we hope they
will be in other parts of the
county some time soon.
Nineteen hundred and forty
six was the best year that the
farmers have ever had in Chat
tooga County as to soil conserva
tion. But it looks like they will
break the record in 1947 if they
sow as much soil improvement
crops this fall as they are plan
ning on doing this spring.
The Government is giving us a
' good farm program this year and
it is believed that every farmer
should take advantage of it.
Phosphate is scarce, but we
still receive a car every now and j
then, however we have plenty of i
lime on hand and can get plenty |
more. Our permanent pastures
should be limed and phosphated
every few years. Fertilizing prac
tices here in the county as well
as other counties, have changed
a good bit over a period of years.
Some of the farmers in the coun
ty have proved that good fertiliz
er pays off in dollars and cents,
regardless of whether used under
corn, cotton, hay, cover crops, or
permanent pastures.
I was reading an article a few
days back where a farmer divid
ed his pasture into two parts.
One part he used about $45
worth of fertilizer and on the
other part he did not use any
fertilizer. The increase in milk
that was produced on the part
'that was fertilized amounted to
more than S4OO. I think this is
just an example of how good
fertilizer and cultivation will
help us to increase our yields
here in Chattooga County.
The experiment station is rec
ommending on these five-acre
cotton demonstrations that the
farmer use from 600 to 1,000

NEW 5 YEAR DRIVERS’
LICENSES NOW READY
Georgians may now purchase
a driver’s license good for five
years at a cost of $5. In an
nouncing this innovation. Acting
Gov. M. E. Thompson declared
that not only would it eliminate
the necessity for annual pur
chases but the extra revenue so
acquired would create a “spot”
fund through which the state
' will be able to establish a veter
-1 inary school and hospital at the
University of Georgia.
Gov. Thompson bought the
first five-year license himself in
the presence of a group of uni
versity students and urged all
! other motorists throughout the
I state to follow his example.
“Once sufficient funds have
been set aside from these pur
chases for a start on the new
school,” he said, “State Auditor
B. E. Thrasher and I will get to
gether with the board of regents
and plan the school and hospital
in detail.” ,

FAIR ENOUGH
A woman who was living in a
hotel at San Francisco employed
a Chinese boy. She asked:
“What’s your name?”
“Fi Yu Tsin Mei,” he replied.
“Your name is too long; I’ll
call you John.”
The Chinese boy looked sur
prised. “What’s your name?” he■
asked.
“Mrs. Elmer Edward MacDon
ald.”
“Your name too long; I call
you Charlie.”

Apple Tree Versus
Wheat Field
If you ever visit Jeb Crowell’s
arm, he’ll take you right out on
hat back porch of his and show
sou his apple tree.
“There,” says Jeb, “is nature’s
noblest creation—fifty years, and
oearin’ still the finest cider apples
in the county!”
But last fall, when a greup of
us was there, Lud Denny points
across the river to his grain fields
and says: “There’s an even finer
sight! Acres and acres of golden
grain you can make dozens of
appetizing things with—including
wholesome, sparkling beer.”

Both of them got so eloquent on
the subject, that the rest of us
worked up quite a thirst; so Jeb
goes to the icebox for beer and
cider. And when the refreshments
come, Lud chooses cider, and Jeb
takes the beer!
From where I sit, that’s the
answer to most disputes. You can
talk all you want, but when it
conies to tastes and preferences,
there’s just no argument
