July is 'Freedom Month'
For Many Nations of Earth
Ever since John Hancock put
his name to the Declaration of
Independence in 1776, July has
been a favorite time for freedom
fighters.
At least six countries have
chosen the month Julius Caesar
named after himself in which to
throw off the tyranny of a
foreign power, according to
World Book Encyclopedia. And
several nations have found the
hottest month of the year a
good time to relinquish control
willingly of their possessions
The Dutch may have started
the trend. They declared them
selves independent of Spain
back on July 26, 1581. A, few cen
turies later, in 1830, the Belgians
got the idea and broke away
from the Netherlands.
July is cooler dowft in South
America, but it. never chilled the
ardor of patriots, who gave
Spain another beating in the
early 1800 s. Spurred by Simon
Bolivar, who was born in July,
Venezuela declared its inde
pendence in 1811. Argentina
issued its declarat ion in 1816 and
Peru made the move in 1821.
Great Britain saw the hand
writing on the wall and in 1867
it gracefully pulled out of North
America Canada became a self
governing dominion.
In 1946 it was the turn of the
United States, and the Philip

through
Georgia
By Glenn McCullough
Nothing like it. has happened
I sirice pioneer days—only now it’s
, strictly for fun. And fun you’ll
t ; have, too, if you join the throngs
, of Georgians who are taking to
. : the wilds, giving camping its
I greatest boom in history!
There’s no mystery to it as
, I you'll learn from experience. It’s
ja delightful family affair. A
! happy blend of adventure,
escape and relaxation—a simply
j elegant vacation that anybody
can afford.
Necessary equipment can be
rounded up at a cost of less than
a week’s pay, and it can be used
‘ over and over again. Why,
■ camping opens up a whole new
concept of spending leisure
j time.
The whole family can enjoy
I our varied and magnificent
scenery of which Georgia has
[ an abundance which is so well
distributed that a camping trip
need not be a great physical ex
pedition. Oh, but what psy
chological expedition it will be!
Camping itself is a world of
fun. A recent first-nighter de
scribes it as a most rewarding
experience . . . responsibilities
vanished into the quiet fresh
air ... it was relaxing, even to
j the point of making the detail
work a pleasure.
Aside from me beautiful j
i scenery, close up, it gives you an
opportunity to fish the way
fishing ought to be done lazily,
or visit Georgia’s numerous his- I
torical shrines, the way they i
ought to be visited leisurely.
And the best angle of ail, it can j
all be done on a shoestring'
budget. 1
Manufacturers and designers, i
either leading a trend or hang- j
| ing onto one, have come up with |
some absolutely fantastic equip
i meat to make camping a lux
urious pastime.
So many are the new gadgets, |
tents, stoves, refrigerators, etc.,
that several hours may be pleas-1
urably spent in the well-1
equipped sporting goods store
just fondling these things.

A farm with a Conservation
Reserve contract has a desig
nated acreage of land that has
been taken out of production
and is now devoted to conserva
tion uses. The conservation uses
include trees, grasses and leg
umes, water storage, and plant
ings beneficial to wildlife. In
return for annual payments, the
designated land is kept entirely
out of production.
Before the planting season
started, each farmer with a
Conservation Reserve contract
was sent a notice of his per
mitted acreage of Soil Bank
base crops. All small grains, oil
seed crops, and most row crops
are considered Soil Bank base
crops under the Conservation
Reserve Program.

। grain sorghum minus the num
ber of acres a farmer agreed to
divert from production of those
two crops in 1961. The permitted
I acreage is important if a farmer
intends to earn the payment he
expected at the time he signed
i up. Now is a good time to check
the acreages of crops for harvest
i to see if the permitted acreage
■ has been exceeded. Mr. Edwards
. recommends that each farmer
taking part in the feed grain
■ program also carefully review
his records to be sure he is
i diverting the number of acres
i he intended to take out of pro
’ duction.
l The acreage diverted from
production must be devoted to
conservation uses to be classed
' as diverted acres. The coiiserva
[ tion use of the diverted acres
also must be in addition to the
‘ i average number of acres on the
>' farm used for conservation dur
ing 1959 and 1960.
