THIS IS WHEAT WEEK IN
THE STATE OF GEORGIA

The week beginning October 18th |
has been officially designated as
Wheat Week in Georgia by DR.. An
drew M Soule, Federal Food Adj
ministrator for Georgia, and ! Phil
Campbell, Director OF the Extension
Service for Georgia. This move
ment is being conducted in the coun-
ties by the County Agents as they
are in close touch with the farmers
and in position to give them infor-
nation in regard to sources OF seed,
varieties to SOW and the best meth
DDS of handling the crop.
Wheat is best adapted to the loan,
clay loan and heavier types OF sandy
soils where firm but friable seed
bed can be prepared. Wheat makes
its best yields following some le-
gume crop but it can also be sown
to advantage. after corn and cotton.
Where wheat follows cotton, the
stalks should be turned under as
soon as the cotton is picked and the
seed bed compacted by the use OF
roller which can be made on any
farm. Where wheat is to follow
some clean cultivated crop that is re-
moved from the land, an excellent
seed bed can be prepared by the use
of disc harrow. In all cases, the
| seed bed should be prepared as long
before sowing as possible in order to
give the soil time to settle Wheat
should be sown early enough to al
low the plants to get well started be-
fore winter. If the Hessian fly was
present last year, seeding should be
delayed until about the time for the
first frost. Extremely late seeding
should be avoided as it means low
yields
From tests conducted in different
sections of the state, the following
varieties are recommended: Fulcaster
Ga. Red, (Also known as Blue Stem,
Purple Straw and Red May.)
The principles to be followed in
the sowing Of wheat may be sum-
med up as follows:
CD Plow early, give the soil time
to settle before sowing if possible.
(2) Use a roller and harrow to
compact the late plowed land.
(3) Where wheat is to follow
cultivated crop that is removed from
the land, prepare the seed bed with
disc harrow.
"a Make good seed bed. The
increase in yield will pay, for the
trouble.
50 Use a grain drill, sowing
sound, plump, clean seed.
co. Use manure and fertilizers
judiciously where needed.
% Use formaldehyde to prevent
losses from smut.

BELL CO. TO MAKE
BIG IMPROVEMENT
$134, ,293 Will Be Spent in City
and Suburbs to Better
Service

The Bell Telephone Company will
spend $134,293 for additions and i'm
provements to the plant in and around
Harrisburg, according to an announce
ment made this morning.
OF the appropriation $4,000 is for
underground and aerial cable. This
will eliminate several pole lines and
provide facilities for future expansion.
More than 1000 feet of underground
cable, containing from 25 to 900 pairs
of wires per cable, will be placed. In
addition there will be strung nearly
500 feet of aerial cable.
Extensive additions are planned to
the underground system. These in
clude 1860 feet of trenches. Each
will contain from one to five under
ground ducts and will require the con-
struction of eight new manholes. The
new cable will replace 81 circuit miles
of aerial wire and cable.
Big Growth
The growth of Harrisburg estimated
at % per cent in the last few years,
and the great development of it's bust =
ness, a Bell official said this morning,
has brought about q demand for tele-
phone service which has resulted in a
growth of 4,603 telephones in five
years. There are now 11.746 in the
city.
Outside the city the Bell company
proposes to spend approximately
$50, 900 for new plant extensions to
care for the toll and long distance
service.
The Bell company division head
quarters offices now occupy five of the
six floors of the Johnston building.
During the last year the buildings at
20S-210 Walnut street have been re-
modelled and there is also being con-
structed at Cameron and Mulberry
streets a modern garage and Office
building.
