A Chance To
Pick Up Summer
Vacation Money

This represents real opportunity for YOU
to pick up some extra cash. 1t may even de-
velop into something permanent, and we can
assure you that there will be work for the next
six or eight months with pay that will run from
SIS to $50 or even more per week, according to
the time you devote to the work. If one of your
problems right now is how to get enough money
for real summer vacation, our proposition will
provide the way.
The Washington times., 1925-06-02

Out of those who apply, we will naturally
select the ones best fitted for our particular
business. Not everyone will be accepted, because
we're going to use great care in picking the kind
of men and women who will help us make this
venture big success-but we will want at least
one hundred, so that it gives nearly everyone
who is interested very good chance on this
proposition.

GEORGIA FARMERS
PLANNING BIG CROPS
ARE WARNED TO LIMIT COT
TON ACREAGE TO FIELDS
THEY CAN TREAT.

| ATLANTA, Ga.-Encouraged by
the fact that their efforts during the
past year were rewarded with tht
best crops produced in several year,
farmers OF Georgia and throughout
the south are going to put more en-
ergy and vim into their farm opera
tons this year than in long time.
Indications are that the acreage tC
be cultivated this year in all principal
crops will be increased over last year
according to officials of the Georgia
Department of Agriculture. Warning
however, has been issued by the agri-
cultural department through the state
bureau of entomology to the farmers
OF the state to limit their cotton crops
to the number of acres they can treat
with poison and properly cultivate.
Diversity of Crops.
Indications are, officials OF the agri-
cultural department say, that great
diversity of crops will be the rule
again this year. The peanut acreage
and that of cantaioupes and watermel-
ons may be less this year on account
of unsatisfactory prices last season.
Dairying will continue to be one OF
the most important farm industries in
sections of south Georgia, it was stat
ed here. While some farmers for one
reason or another have given up dairy
ing others are going right along
building up good herds of dairy
COWS and are. making them pay the
farm expenses, finding ready sale for
their products.
Tobacco this year, as it was last
year, will be one OF the most import
ant crops in the tobacco belt OF south
Georgia. Practically every farmer who
planted tobacco last year will do SO
again this year, according to tobacco
eperts of the A. B. and A. railroad
Many others will plant their first crop
OF tobacco this year, growers from the
Carolinas and Virginia being brought
to this section by the agricultural de-
partmcnt OF this railroad.
Indications are that the sweet po-
tato acreage will be larger this year
than it was last year Prices were
high the past season and this naturally
will encourage many farmers to In
crease their acreage this year. Many
potato curing houses have been erect
cd in south Georgia and the cured po-
tatoes will enable the farmers to reach
markets more at a distance than they
have ever done before, the cured po-
tato not being spoiled in shipment.

CORN, NOT COTTON,
LEADS IN GEORGIA
CAMPAIGN FOR MORE AND
BETTER FOOD CROPS PUSH
ES COTTON FROM THRONE.

Georgia's corn acreage during the
last four years has far exceeded her
acreage in cotton.
Officials of the Georgia Department
of Agriculture are authority for the
foregoing statement, particularly Mar
tin V. Calvin, OF that department, who
is a specialist in the. economies OF
farming.
Through the years 1918, 1919 and
1920 an annual average OF upwards
OF a million acres were allotted to cot
ton than to corn; but through 1924,
inclusive, the average in corn was four
million, two hundred and nne-nine
thousand, seven hundred and fifty
acres, as against three million, five
hundred and forty-eight thousand, five
hundred in cotton, balance OF slight
ly more than twenty-one per cent in
favor of corn.
This is a striking instance Of the
effectiveness OF the campaign for more
and better food crops, which was
launched by the states agricultural
and business leaders in the latter part
OF 1920 as a means OF coping with the
boil weevil.
Years earlier there had been organ
lied and fruitful efforts made to de
velop greater interest in good crops
in general and particularly in corn,
the boys clubs formed for that pur-
pose being one of the most useful in
stitutions in the commonwealth eco
nomic annals
