CREAM AND EGG ROUTES
FOR GEORGIA FARMERS
College Agents Organizing
Routes and Getting Farmers
Products to Market

ATHENS, Ga. Feb. 1l.-Agents of the
Georgia State College of Agriculture
lave recently been at work among the
farmers and have established cream
and esq routes by which farmers find
a market for cream and eggs about twice
week. The egg routes are associated
with the creamery routes out of Eaton
ton as "A starter, the object being event
ually TO combine the shipments of cream
aura eggs wherever there is cream
route.
At present all of the cream routes
that have been established by the ex-
tension agents OF the college ship their
cream to. the college, where it is con-
verted into butter and marketed. As
soon as a sufficient number of ca eam
routes can be centered at any point in
the state the college will encourage
the establishment of a creamery ut that
point. The initial cream routes will be
established i'm sections where there are
good many cows and where it is soon
possible to have sufficient interest to
justify the erection of a creamery.
In the collection of cream a sample
Of each Offering is taken before it is
emptied into the large milk cans. On
the basis of this sample the farmer re-
ceives pay for his cream, the amount
Of butter fat present in the cream hav-
ing thus been determined. This is the
usual method employed at creameries
County demonstration agents are doing
effective work in conjunction with dairy
experts of the college in establishing
the cream routes.

ON how YOU handle the crop If you cut

BILE and fallen leaves. the chances are
that YOU will not increase the nitrogen
content of the land over 10 to 20 pounds
per acre If the stubble and trash was
not pIowed under last fall the chances
are that a part. of the nitrogen they
contained was lost. You could hardly
count therefore, on more than 10 or D
pounds of this material being avallable
at the present time. OF course, under
favorable conditions there might be as
much as 35 or 80 pounds of nitrogen
accumulated in the roots stubble and
fallen leaves. If the land was properly
managed, this can probably all be saved
for the benefit of the crops you grow this
summer. therefore, we would not make
as much difference in the formula you
exrect to use as you might think adVls-
able In other words, if we used
per cent ammonia for growing cotton III

2.5 to 8 per cent where cowpeas have
been plowed under.
