Clean up the Pastures

During the next two months
will be a good time to clean UP
so-called pastures. In many
cases a little cleaning out Of
brush or underground, the dam
ming of a few. gullies, the
making of 4 few terraces or hill-
side bitches will add greatly to
the Improvement Of the land
and the pasturage it will
produce. The weeds and brush
will not be kept down until q
mower can be run over the
pasture, and the amount OF
grass produced will never reach
the maximum until this is ldone.
If it is not practicable to put
the pasture in condition 70 NOW,
it will still pay to cut down the
brush and fiji up the gullies.

PEOPLE CALLING FOR
MORE FARM MEETINGS
MORO CITIZENS JOIN ENTHU-
SlASTiCALLY IN CAMPAIGN
TEAMS WILL Visit HAYNES ON
WEDNESDAY, NIGHT.

The farm campaign conducted this
year by teams representing the
Mariana Commercial Club has be-
come so popular that sections of the
county net covered by the original
itinerary have made calls for meet
ings. The citizens of Moro have been
especially enthusiastic over the work
of the farm teams and arranged for
two new appointments west of Moro
which were filled on Tuesday and
Wednesday nights. The first was
at ST Paul and the second at Gar
rett's Grove At both places good
crowds were in attendance and keen
interest was shown. When the Mari
anna teams cached Moro they were
Joined by a number of citizens from
that growing town who entered
heartily into the meetings, several of
them making splendid talks. Among
those from Moro who attended the
r,eetings were c. &. Dozier, o. F..
Lacey, DR. c. w. Chaffin, A. f.
Galloway, Hugh Jordan, ]. P. Butter
worth, j. p Martin and R. w. Land.
On Monday night of this week
team went to Waits school house
near Gill and talked to big audi
ence of colored farmers. On Tuesday
night another team went to Hamp-
shire where more than two hundred
people gathered to listen to the
speakers.
On Wednesday night of next week
several teams will go to Haynes to
attend big mass meeting at which
war questions will be discussed.
Accurate reports filed by the chair
men of the teams show that nearly
five thousand men and women from
the farms have attended the meetings
that have been held during the past
two weeks At many of the places
the people formed organizations and
will hold monthly meetings to discuss
their local problems and exchange
ideas. Representatives from the
Commercial Club will attend these
meetings and will keep in touch with
conditions in every section of the
county.
