FARM NOTES
By J. B. BUTLER
It is of first importance for
Chattooga county farmers to
treat cotton seed before planting
them, according to E. C. West
brook, Georgia extension service
cotton specialist. A check on the
1947 seed supply «nows that a
large percentage of the seed is
heavily loaded with seed-borne
diseases.
The high prices that farmers
have been receiving for their
farm products in the last few
years are an incentive for farm
ers to go “all out” in producing
cash crops and neglect their land
and soil building crops. How
ever, the farmers here in Chat
tooga county are highly inter
ested in soil building crops and
from the looks of the farms that
I visited a good many of the
farmers last year sowed soil
building crops that will be turn
ed under this spring. I hope the
farmers will keep the interest
and continue building fertility of
the soil.
According to the information
that we have received from the
agronomist the farmers that had
corn demonstrations last year
averaged better than fifty bush
els per acre throughout the state.
I hope more farmers here in
Chattooga county will have corn

demonstrations this year. It
stimulates the interest and in
creases the yield of corn and
other crops throughout the
county. These demonstrations
that were conducted last year
averaged approximately 500
pounds of 4-8-6 fertilizer at
planting time and side dressed
with approximately 160 pounds
of nitrogen.
News Notions
Things are warming up a bit
around here.
That’s the politics, as well as
the weather.
The beautiful sunshine which
cast it’s radiance over this sec
| tion Tuesday morning, brought
sunny smiles to the faces of
many who were strolling about
the streets.
Many merchants took this op
portunity to brighten up their
display windows by polishing
them to a clear sheen. Clothing
stores displayed frilly, feminine
spring dresses, and many a wom
an was seen gazing at the dis
play, no doubt longing for the
spring season to hurry and come.
The courthouse area was no
ticeably covered with men, and
our guess is that the two most
popular subjects of conversation
were the weather and politics.
It’s only three more weeks un
til the county Democratic pri
mary, and it’s our bet that the
political situation will get con
siderably “warmer”
About the weather, well, we
just couldn’t say.
T WO ENLIST IN ARMY
FROM THIS SECTION
January enlistments in the U
S. army and U. S. air force
through the Rome recruiting
station, totaled 45, of which two
were enlisted from this area, ac
cording to M/Sgt. Robert Ivey,
station commander. This num
ber exceeds the quota set for the
station.
The men enlisting from this
area included Nathaniel Nichol
son. Jr.. Lyerly, -regular army,
and Joe H. Potter, Summerville;
infantry. Both enlistments were
for three years.
"Depending on the individual
i an enlistee can choose practical
ly any branch of service any
geographical location, and in
some cases the exact job he de
sires,” Sgt, Ivey said. "A veteran
who was overseas after Sept. 2,
1945 can be guaranteed three
years with any one of eight di
visions in the United States he
selects.”

Rome will be in Summerville
each Wednesday at the post of
