Peach Shipping Season
Nearing Close; Prices
Expected to Improve

MACON, Ga, Aug. 1.-The Geor
e.a peach shipping season is nearing
a close. The market news service
which was established here at the
opening of the season early in June
Tor the purpose of issuing daily
bulletins on peach movements and
the prices received, has been closed
until next year. Most of the federal
inspectors have vacated the city.
AT the present time, the liberia
crop is being shipped Many grow
ers IN the Perry, Fort Valley and
Byron districts have shipped their
last car. The prices are dull and
growers say that they are barely re-
celving enough from some of the
shipments to pay cost of picking,
packing and the freight. AS the re-
suit of this condition, thousands of
bushels of peaches have rotted in
the orchards during the past two
weeks. Many growers picked the
fruit and hauled it to streams where
1t was dumped in.
For the next ten days there will
be number Of cars of fruit to move
but the bulk of the crop in this sec
ton has already been rolled
The watermelon market is some
what improved and shippers are re-
ceiving as much as 5000 per car for
some OF the best grades of melons
Others are selling for $500 per car
ION the track. 1t is believed that the
Haelon market will greatly improve
the next three weeks and the
last shipments of peaches are also
expected to bring big prices

FARM EDUCATION

Making Cheddar Cheese at Home
H. c. NJ, Warm Springs, Ga,
writes: / have several good
COWS that give a good quality
and quantity of milk, and am
thinking of trying my hand at
cheese making. [ have both
Hoisleins and Jerseys. What
kind and how much feed should
my COWS have per day to give
the best results?
Cheese can be made successfully
in the Piedmont section of Georgia.
This has been amply demonstrated
through the medium of our own eX'
perience. As you doubtless know,
one of our extension experts has
been given all his time and energy
to the building up and development
of cheese factories in this part of
Georgia. A number of them are in
operation today on a satisfactory
and profitable basis.
In making cheese, one must of
course have sufficient volume of
milk to justify the undertaking. In
our climate, cheese will naturally
ripen in q short period of time. 1t
should be ready to put on the mar
ket from thirty to ninety days after
it is made, depending on the season
and also on the degree of ripeness
which the market demands. In the
south, very mild cheese is prefer
red: whereas. in the north, q rather
sharp and Well.ripened cheese finds
the most favor.
Our large dairy supply houses will
now provide home equipment for
cheese making. 1t will probably be
necessary for you to buy one of
these. The price will vary a good
deal according to the character and
number of utensils you purchase. If
you are experienced in cheese max
ing, a very small equipment will
answer your purpose satisfactorily.
You viii probably have more diff
ficulty in curing cheese than any
thing else. 1t would have to be
uniform as to quality and would
probably have to be disposed of on
local market. You can secure all
the equipment for the making Of
cheese through any standard dairy
equipment house, several of which
have branches in our larger towns
and cities.
Holstein cows are prolific pro-
ducers of milk. They are big, Wig
orous animals. Their milk is espe-
cially we'll adapted for the manufac-
ture of cheese because it does not
contain so much fat as Jersey milk.
A combination herd of Jerseys and
Atlanta tri-weekly journal. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1920-19??, 1924-08-07

Holsteins is a good plan where one
desires to manufacture cheese or
sell milk. Where butter is to be
made, the Jersey is desirable. Where
the milk is used for children, the
Holstein is preferable.
Dairy animals should be fed ac-
cording to individual needs and re-
quirements. A liberal ration is nee
essary for both Jerseys and Hol-
stems. The latter of course will
consume more food than the fornes
because of their size. Provide Your
cows with the best grazing possible.
When this fails, use as a substitute
therefor soiling crops. In the Win
ter time silage provides the best
and cheapest roughage ysa can
utilize. A good grain ration must
be fed where a large flow of milk
is anticipated and where it is ex-
pected that cows will milk for a
relatively long period of time. We
feed mixture consisting of one
third cotton seed meal, one-third
bran, one-third oats, shorts, corn
meal, or velvet bean meal. You
may use peanut meal in place of
cotton seed meal, if you prefer. You
will note that cottonseed meal and
bran constitute two unvarying fac
tors in the concentrated ration
which we uSe

widower only. 1t is all right to
sing, "The wife's away, Murray.
Murray" but bear in mind that she
is coming back with the children
OF course, it is dull as ditch water
going home of an evening to a house
that is shut up and hot and stuffy,
and where everything is swathed in
dustcoVers and there is nobody to
speak to. And it is stupider still
eating around at restaurants by
yourself and going for d solitary
spin in your car.
OF course, there is something in
the summer that makes a man feel
young again, and, Of course, it is
jolly good fun to pick up some pretty
young girl and take her out to some
roadhouse for dinner and dance,
and, Of course, it is easy for man
to make love to a girl who has got
wonderful eyes and to kiss a pouting
mouth when the moons full and the
band is lifting in the distance.
But don't do it. At the best, some
one is sure to see you and write wife
all about it, and you will never be
able to make her believe that you
didn't mean it and YOU will have to
square yourself with diamonds and
furs.
And at the worst. you will be de-
spoiled by the Philistines, for the
summer is when the adventures and
the Vamp get in their work, and
many a man pays blackmail the bal
ance of his life for bit of silly
season asininity.
Don'ts for girls:
Don't set gagged to men of whom
you know nothing. Because a man
wears a yachting cap is no sign that
he owns a skiff. Don't do things
away from home that you wouldn't
do at home. Not all the cats live
on your own block.
Don't let them take liberties with
you in the summer that you would
resent in the winter. Human ma
ture is the same all the year round.
Don't let any one snapshot you in
