FEDERAL LOANS TO
GEORGIA FARMERS
OVER FORTY-EIGHT THOUS-
AND FARMERS AVAILED
THEMSELVES OF LOAN.

Georgia farmers to the number OF
48,675 have awaited themselves of loans
totaling $24,533,665 from federal land

sos, and of this $21,873,980 was grant
ed, the loans being safeguarded by
1.635,400 acres of land in the state,
having an appraised valuation in land
and buildings of $58,454302.
The entire range of farm life is COW
cred in the purposes for which the

Origin of Hot Dog
Is Herewith Revealed
Invented by German Butcher for a
Fastidious Woman Customer.

A few years ago, in small town
overseas, lived an ingenious butcher
by the name Herr Won Wener. One
day a town matron informed Herr
Weiner that she was giving katie
klatch" soon, and as there were to be
some very important personages pres
ent she wished to make the affair a
little unusual in regard to the menu.
She would like sausages, but, Mich zu
crosse "k1eine wurst" leach for
one"-could he oblige her? Sure, sure,
he would do that little thing-depend
on Herr Weiner
The day of the "klatch" arrived. Ex-
Carnations of surprise and delight
greeted the ears Of the hostess as
dishes with miniature sausages, en-
bracing mashed potatoes and sauer-
kraut, were set before each guest.
What a novelty! Where did she pur-
chase these cute sausages, each Tor
one? Wouldn't she please tell them
so they could buy? In the course of
time Weiner's wurst found its way
into foreign lands, and at last to this
country Its popularity became inter
national. Poor grammarlans and bad
printers soon were responsible for the
degeneration of the name "Weiner's
wurst" to the easier epithet "Weiner-
wursts." Then American slang took
hand, until today their name is legion.
A few of the best known appellations
are: Weinie, weiner, frankfurt, hot
dog, Coney Island, etc incidentally,
if the number of "hot dogs" consumed
annually were placed end to end they
would reach thrice around the world.
Think of it! Hot dog!

FORESHAD0WINGS
OF FARM PROSPERITY
HOPEFUL FORECAST OF DE-
PARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
FARMERS ARE WARNED.

Prosperity down on the farm is to
lift its head with the greening plants
this season. 50 says Secretary Jardine,
in the most hopeful forecast issued by
the Department OF Agriculture for hve
years. 80 ,,
Events are moving so rapidly,
saws the departments forecast that
if is difficult TO catch their significance.
The big central fact as to the early
seasons outlook is that a new chapter
has been opened in the general alter
war situation.
Only a short time ago the country
was seemingly loaded down with sur
pluses of fibre crops, of grain and OF
live stock. For four successive spring
seasons farmers have made their plans
against a background OF distressing
SURPRISES in the open country, with
most OF the time fat prosperity in the
cities
eve open our eyes this spring to
something different. There are no big
agricultural SURPRISES lett, save the
partly fictitious one of cattle. More
over the great city industries, expand
ed by boom period, are already brac-
ing their feet against that dull alter
math wherein security markets, proht,
property values-and finally wages
have nowhere to go but down, An all
round new chapter"
The astonishment which seems
most likely to follow that portion OF
the statement issued under the au-
thority Of the new secretary hardly
will be lessened by what follows; The
statement continues:
agriculture might worry about ur-
ban purchasing power II she were still
burdened with unWanted products.
But the shoe is almost shifted to the
other foot. SO much so that, judging
from the lessened population move
ment. an increased number of farm
ers apparently feel it financially safe
to stay on the farm this spring and
put in their usual crops.
Over the country as a whole re-
ports indicate that farmers have not
gone into action so hopefully in five
years.
Reports from all over the country
last month, says the statement, in
dictate intentions ito increase the
acreage of spring wheat IA per cent,
corn % per cent, oats SO per cent,
barley p per cent, grain sorghums II
per cent, sweet potatoes 80 per cent,
tobacco 10 per cent, rice II per cent
and to decrease haxseed 3.3 per cent,
and white potatoes 4 per cent this
year as compared with last.
This is the first spring in five
years with any evidence OF general
stimulus in agriculture.
III intentions to plant are carried
out and the weather during the sea-
son is such as to bring forth aver
age yields production in many lines
will be greater than in 1921"
Against too great an expansion in
the acreage planted to crops the de-
partment sounds word OF warning as
follows:
1T seems doubtful If the general ex-
pansion of production contemplated
by farmers would be to their best in
terests.
Increased returns for the crops of
1924 were largely due to reduced sup
plies either in this country or abroad,
rather than to any increase in demand.
The outlook indicates that any mark
ed expansion in most lines would tend
to lower prices and result in less salts
factory returns to farmers"

Plant Laredo Soy Beans for Profit
By A. E. Gibson County Agricultural Agent

The past several years experience in
growing Laredo soy beans by the
farmers in this section have proved
very profitable, not only as hay crop
but as a cash crop by harvesting and
selling the seed
They are wilt resistant and safe to
grow in orchards and on cotton lands
and grow rapidly on land adapted to
COW peas and are even more resistant
to drouth and excessive rains, and will
make more seed per acre than any va
riety OF soy beans tried in the south
and are equal to the O-too-tans for
hay. They have produced as high as
40 bushels Of seed per acre. The high
est yields may be expected when they
are planted in from two to three feet
rows and cultivated. but they are

SOUTH GEORGIA HEN HAS

The old woman who lived in a shoe
had nothing on the old hen that DR..
L. L. Whiddon has set to the task OF
caring for 300 chicks, says the Ocilla
Star. In fact the old hen has the old
woman backed off the boards.
Dr. Whiddon received from the

chicks He placed them in little

Realizing that this was some job for
one hen she proceeded to spread her
self But finding the task too big she
thoughtfully let about SO of them die
from time to time, and now that she
has only three hundred to fuss at and
scold she gets along very nicely, They
are really doing well with no other
heating apparatus than the hen and
their own bodies. They have about
quit dying.

be planted broadcast and the hay and
seed yield is fairly satisfactory.
To obtain the best seed yields they
should be planted right away, but for
hay purposes it is safe to plant after
oats.
One bushel will plant II acres in
3-foot rows II inches apart and four
beans to the hill.
If they are to be harvested for hay
they should be cut when the pods are
half mature.
They are much cheaper than COW
peas at the present time, and from
past experiences they appear to be a
more profitable crop. Good peas are
selling around $500 to $3.50 per bush
ell and Laredos are being offered at
from $500 to $3.50.
