They stopped off in New Orleans and saw the his¬ torical town and things of interest, on into Houston, Galveston and other places. They were very favorably impressed with the part of the state they visited as prospectors, so much so that Dr. Jones bought 57 acres of land, and says he is going to move there. The land is all irrigated and so fer¬ tile that no fertilizer is used, the cli¬ mate tempered by the winds from the Gulf and tropical fruit and vegetables grow by the tons to the acre. Dr. Jones gave me a slight description and seems carried away, the old saying is, and says, the people, they are the finest people in the world. I reminded him that Gov. Chase Osborn of Mich., says that South Georgia people, the finest he ever met, and he has wintered in every place worth while in the world. Our winters and summers have been confined to South Georgia, but we think it the finest place yet. The last week-end proved a hum dinger for the basket ball teams.

Grace Gardner, Julius Jackson. Fall term examinations are over and reports for the month have been given out. In a majoirty of the stu¬ dents there is a great improvement in their work as most of them find that their work for the Fall term shows room for more study. On account of the examinations the Literary Societies did not render a program, as usual, but we expect to resume our work this week and try to make each program more .nte^est ing and beneficial Mr. Reid and several of our High School boys have gone to Atlanta this week.

The Camilla boys played the boys from Thomasville on the local court Friday night, losing by seven points. The score was 31 to 24. Our boys started off like a whirl¬ wind, Hilliard and Culpepper scoring 6 points before the visitors realized we were leading. However, their their height, and weight enabled them to get the lead and keep it for a while, leading by 2 points at the end of half. Then our boys took the lead again and led by 3 points at end of 3rd quarter. During the last quar¬ ter, Willis, a “seven footer” from Thomasville started to putting the ball through and before he could be stopped the game had ended. Willis and Zolumas starred from Thomas¬ ville; Jackson for Camilla, played a good defensive game, while honorable mention is made of “Pee-Wee” Hil¬ liard and Culpepper. The girls played Sale City, the game resulting in a tie, 13 to 13. Our girls began playing like the “champs” they are, leading the score by 10 to 1 at end of first quarter, but the Sale City girls began to “open their eyes” and realize that they would have to play as they had never played before, so they summoned all their playing ability and gave us a game which kept everyone guessing. Watch the school news for an¬ nouncements of the next game, and be sure to come out. JOKES.

PURDOM Assistant Agricultural and Industrial Agent Atlantic Coast Line Railrod Company It is useless to attempt to make a profitable crop of tobacco without the use of commercial fertilizers, and the experience of observant growers and the results of tests of our Experiment Station indicate that a heavy applica¬ tion of high grade goods is the most profiable. A fertilizer containing 8 per cent phosphoric acid, 3 per cent ammonia, and 3 per cent (ordinarily referred to as an 8-3-3) has for a long time been a standard tobacco fertilizer. Tests and results, however, have shown there are many soils in South Geor¬ gia and North Florida, the lighter, sandier ones, on which the use of more ammonia and more potash is desirable and profitable. Experi¬ ments at the Tifton Station indicate that beneficial results are secured by increasing the potash content of the fertilizer to as much as 8 per cent, and that there is at least no harm and the possibility of securing bene¬ ficial results by using more phosphoric acid, while many farmers have found by actual experience the use of more ammonia is profitable. The result is there are many higher grade ferti¬ lizers for tobacco being sold. These fertilizers range in analysis from 8-4-5 to 12-3-5. Personally I pre¬ fer a fertilizer containing 8 to 10 per cent available phosphoric acid, 4 per cent ammonia and 5 to 6 per cent pot¬ ash. The most general rate of applica¬ tion is 1,000 pounds per acre, but the use of larger quantities has been found highly profitable, I will state now, I do not believe the liberal use of fertilizer, of itself, causes tobacco not to ripen. It is my opinion that these crops which grow rough and burn before they ripen, and which cure into a dark, chaffy, woody and low grade tobacco, are caused direct¬ ly, in the majority of cases, by the presence in the soil of nematodes which, as explained last week, cause the roots of the plant to disease. Other highly contributing factors to this kind of crop of tobacco are im¬ proper cultivation and late planting. 1 would advise the early ordering Pecan Nursery Stock Large supply of young trees, several varieties, ready for setting.

Last year I heard of many crops which were planted late due to late ordering of fertilizer. This late ordering congests the fertilizer manufacturing plants, causing them to be delayed in filling orders, and this year if the railroads are called upon to haul in about six weeks time the fertilizers which should be ordered out during January, February, March and April there may be more delay in getting fertilizers to the farm. Therefore, ORDER THE FERTILIZ¬ ER EARLY and thus be sure they are at the farm when they are needed. $200,000,000 Board For Cotton r Grain Marketing Asked WASHINGTON.—Farm relief leg¬ islation continued to claim considera¬ ble attention Saturday in congress. Direct government control of grain and other products was proposed in a bill introduced in the senate by Sen¬ ator Frazier, Republican, North Da¬ kota, and one preeented in the house by Representative Little, Democrat, Kansas. Though dissimilar, the mea¬ sures both are intended to relieve the farmer of violent price fluctuations and to insure sale of surplus crops. Senator’s Frazier’s bill would ap¬ propriate $200,000,000 to create a fed¬ eral marketing board to handle corn, wheat and cotton. Representative Little's proposal seeks to set aside $100,000,000 for a revolving fund to THE PLACE TO BUY GROCERIES is where you can get the best quality, fresh and pure, at the lowest price. At The U-Save-It grocery you will find this to be the case. You save money on our cash and carry plan, and get the highest grade of products. U-SAVE-IT be used by the government to estab¬ lish bonded elevators, store wheat in them and sell it, at home and abroad, at prices calculated to bring the grow¬ ers fair returns. The house agriculture committee, continued hearings. John P. Wallace and Harvey Ingham, publishers of Des Moines, indorsed the Dickinson bill which would form a federal ex¬ port board and levy an equalization tax for distribution of surplus crops. They declared the food supply of the nation was being menaced by agri¬ culture depression. William Adcock, of Galesburg, HI., representing the Illinois general as¬ sembly, urgen an export bounty on wheat, corn and livestock. He also advocated an excise tax and equali¬ zation of the import tariff to pay for the bounty. Typewriter Ribbons, Tyewriter Pa¬ per and other office supplies at The Enterorise Office.
