DANIEL AND POWER
GOING To ATHENS
Cobb Club Boys Get Athens Schol-
arship With State
Champion Pigs.

Elmer Daniel and l. C. Power, Jr.,
will leave for Athens Tuesday of
next week where they will attend a
ten days short course in agriculture
for club members at the State College
of Agriculture. These boys won
scholarships to the short course as
a result of their club work last year.
Daniel raised the state champion
Berkshire pig and Power the state
champion Poland China pig. Pow
er's pig also won third prize in the
National Swine Show held at the
Southeartern Fair last fall.
Both of these boys are actively en-
gagged in club work again this year
and, are doing good work. Daniel re-
ports that the Poland China pig that
ne is growing this year gained SO
pounds during the month of June
and was only four months old at the
end of the month.
There are about $50 boys who are
members of the agricultural clubs of
the county, and if the same bows
win scholarships again this year they
will have to hustle. Lamar Black
well reports that his o. |. C. mig
gained 40 pounds in June. and Her
bert Sprayberry reports that his Du-
roc Jersey gained AZ pounds during
the same time.
Some good work is also being done
by members of the corn club and the
potato club. The number of boys who
have acres of corn that are worth
going to see is so large that will not
attempt to give their names at this
time. E. o. McMAHAN,
County Agent.

Mrs. Cole has been resident of
Marietta for many years and, in CO.

ADVERTISING GEORGIA
IS GETTING RESULTS
Homeseekers From 20 States and
England are Making Inguir-
les Concerning State.

News comes from Atlanta to the
effect that the meeting of the direct
ors of the Georgia Association, which
has taken over entirely the move
ment begun last summer by the Adj
vertise Georgia Enterprise, has dis
closed the fact that the first of the
advertisements placed in the Middle
West with a view Of bringing home
seekers to Georgia has resulted in IN
quiries being received from prospec-
tive investors in 20 states and Eng
land. The directors announced their
confidence that thousands Of invest
ors in farm lands would come to look
over what Georgia has to offer and
that large proportion of these will
become producers in Georgia.
Inquiries which have arrived in re-
sponse to the "Cenae to Georgia" ad-
vertising have been turned over to
local committees and boards of trade
in those counties which have paid up
their subscriptions TO the advertising
fund, which are only a few of those
GQuF16iSS WHICH met CuelI plSNSSo uISI
should be the first to share in the re-
suits, and announced that other coun-
ties would be given such inquiries as
soon as they pay up their subscrip-
tons.
Secretary f. H. Abbott, Of Way
cross, who is deyoting all his time
and energy to this work, is in receipt
of letters from county commissioners
and prominent men in the counties
to which prospective investors have
been referred, expressing entire sat
isfaction with the results obtained
from their investments in advertis-
ing. These are all enthusiastic in
tone. A number Of representative
Gecrgians interested in the develop
ment of the State are lending their
time, without remuneration, to arous-
ing interest in those counties which
have delayed meeting their pledges
and which are not yet sharing in the
opportunities to interest homeseek-
ers.

Library Notes
of the Week

The Clarke Library has received
20 children's books as loan from the
State Library Commission. This helps
out with the children who had about
read all the books loaned by the com
mission last winter, and were wanting
new ones.
In fact books are coming fron~ the
commission, being used, and sent
back all the time; gardening, ma
chinery, civil services examinations,
are some of the subjects on which
we have gotten books in the last
month, the variety of subjects on
which people want books is sure to
grow with the ability to crafty the
needs.
The 70 volumes which we borrowed
from the commission last winter have
circulated 1854 times, which is quite
a turn over" and they have given
so much pleasure to the children that
we are much indebted to the com.
mission for them.
Three new novels have been added
to the pay collection at the Library
these rent for one cent day, and as
soon as they pay for themselves, will
be out with the free books. They
are, my Son. by Cora Harris, "The
Sisters-in-Law,H by Gertrude Ather-
ton, and The Brimming Cup, by Dor
othy Garfield Fisher. Three others
havesbeen added and will be availa-
ble in a short time.
The June report of the Librarian
shows continued usefulness of the
Library. In addition to the regular
routine of work of keeping the Lii
brary running and open, 800 books
have been catalouged BY the Librar-
ian.
The catalog is not to be printed.
Ever so otter some one asks for a
printed catalog of the library. Pub
lie Libraries no longer have printed
catalogs, for many reasons. They
are never correct unless changed ev-
cry time book is added or with
drawn. Also, they are nothing more
than an author list Of the books in
the Library, and do not give adequate
idea Of the resources of the Library.
A card catalog is really an index
to the entire Library, for books may
be faund under the author, title and
subject. For instance, if you want
to find some western stories, you look
for those words just as you would in
dictionary, and you find arranged
alphabetically all the authors who
have written western stories, and UNI
der each name the title of the book.
All the fiction in the Library has
been so catologed and as the books
are out on the shelves alphabetically
by author it is very easy to find any
special book, particularly as the shell
yes are marked A. B., etc. The Ii
brarian is always glad to explain the
catalog and its uses, and hopes that
every one will examine it, and ex-
press his or her opinion. Sometimes
the ideas of a "layman" are much
clearer as to the real usefulness of
a catalog, than those Of the person
who handles the books all the time.

CURING AND STORING
PLANT FOR ROSWELL
Plans to Be Perfected Tuesday
For Plant For Handling
Potatoes for Public.
CAPACITY OF 5,OOO BUSHELS
Ready For Operation in October;
Should Save $500 Bushel on
Spring Market.

A number of farmers and business
men of Roswell and community will
meet in Roswell next Tuesday, Aug
gust End, for the purpose of purehas.
ing site, ordering machinery and
perfecting other uncompleted anC
necessary business for the erecting
of large potato curing and storing
plant. 1t is estimated that the cost
of the plant, site and equipment will
approximate $1,8OO.O0, and will have
capacity of 5000. bushels. The 10.
cation will be in or near Roswell.
The work upon the plant, it is sta
ted, will begin as soon as final ar
engagements have been perferted and
that it will be in operation by the
time that potatoes are in, the first
of October. The committee in charge
of building arrangements is composed
of R. M Donehoo, H. P. Carpenter
and H. Y. Stribling.
This will be the first potato curing
plant for the use of the general pub
lie to be erected anywhere in this
immediate section of North Georgia,
and so far as can be learned, it is
the first of its kind to be erected
in any section of North Georgia prop
er. Three curing and storing plants
are known to exist, two of which are
in Atlanta, but all of them are
owned by buying concerns that but
potatoes from producers, or others,
and cure for sale by the company's
owning the plantsA
The Roswell plant will cure and
store for the general public at a
verN reasonable price, it is stated,
SO that the cost will not be anything
like as high as the value derived. II
is stated that potatoes cured in a
plant of this kind have a loss rang
ing from only 2 per cent to per
cent, while potatoes cured in the old
manner have a Toss OF from So Ia
as per cent.
The real value of the plant to
the farmers of the Roswell com
munity, and the entireI county sin
fact, does not lie entirely in the de-
crease of loss, however. Perhaps
the biggest value lies in the fact that
potatoes so cured can be held over
until the spring at which time much
better price can be secured than in
the fall when the markets are flood
ed. Potatoes sold in Atlanta this
past spring, so it is stated, as high
as $3.50 per bushel. This is from
$2.75 to $500 higher than the usual
fall price of from so to 75c.
The farmers of South Georgia
have for some time had access to
public curing and storing houses, and
as result the potato crop has be-
come one of the best money makers
in that section of the state. Only a
short time back a shipment of this
style of cured potatoes were sent to
England at very fancy price, more
in the nature of an experiment, to
see if they would keep for such a
long shipment.
1t is understood that the Roswell
plant viii cure Only for the purpose
of meeting the spring market in
Atlanta. There are few very small,
private curing pants in Cobb county
that have aready proven of great
success to their owners. In the near
futue the outlook is that other COM
munities of Cobb county will take up
the matters of erecting curing and
storing plants.
