One of the boys from Shady Grove
is in France. He writes his mother
that he is getting along splendidly
over there. Two of our boys are in
Norfolk in training and we feel proud
of these brave boys.
Our farmers are quite busy just
now making up their seeded ribbon
cane or sorghum syrup. We under
stand a fairly good price is being
offered for the syrup. Peanut gather
ing is another pressing part of the
work on the farms now. A splendid
crop of this valuable plant has been
produced inthis vicinity.
That the readers of The Journal
may know where Shady Grove is l
would like to state that it is in the
southeast corner of Jackson county,
on Ocheesee Lake, five miles from the
Apalachicola River, and it is one OF
the best places in the world to be in.
