Reuben Reynolds desired the ad-
vice of the Club on the best practice
of seeding oats, drilling or broad
casting. The general opinion was in
favor of drilling, but Mr.. Reynolds
is planting 20 acres and will find out
for himself, as he decided to drill
half and broadcast half.
Howard Barnes reported that two
acres of fall seeded alfalfa is looking
fine.
Prof. Metzger recommended Hoff-
mans Patterson Oats as quick
growing white oats suited to this
section.
Henry Mccullough then reported
for the committee. He said he liked
to know that farm is named, and
Mount Myra, the hosts farm, is
beautifully located on the top of a
ridge. He then paid tribue to the
farm home, stating that such a
farm home as this and the type of
these living here are the bulwark of
our nation. At dinner we were
abundantly and sumptuously enter
tanned. The 100 acre farm is mod
ernly equipped with farm tractor,
automobile, truck, radio, etc. We
found 800 pure bred white Leg
horns in excellent condition and
100 laying. They were housed in
a good S5x16 feet building. The
farm workshop was in good condi-
ton and contained the needed tools
and parts for many repairs. The
comfortable barn with modern
equipment housed IA good produc-
ing grade Holstein cows, three
year-old heifers, seven calves and
one pure bred Holstein bull. Mr..
Tyson believes in a milking machine
and has used his for IL years. He
has 120 ton silo. In the barn was
20 tons of mixed hay, 1000 bundles
of fodder and 500 bushels of corn.
One Poland China brood SOW and
six nice pigs and three horses were
also in the barn. The Implements
were we'll housed and in good re-
pair; "a acres were in wheat, 5 in
asparagus and 4 in blackberries.
Mr.. Metzger gave us a very in
teresting digest of several years OF
fertilizer experiments in a farm
crop rotation and he has found the
greatest returns from manure and
phosphates applied to the grass
crop. This produces a good crop of
hay and the heavier sod will produce
almost as much corn as the same
fertilizers applied directly to the
corn crop.
He was interested in the Farm
Club minutes, and considered them
of much value as records. He re-
ported having read the old minutes
of the Enterprise Farmers Club of
Sandy Springs, Montgomery county,
which was organized in 1855.
The Club then adjourned to meet
with A, H. Mendenhall on May
10. 1926,
