Unit Demonstration
Farmers Urged To
File Record Books
AU unit demonstration farmers in
the county have been advertised by
county agent A Q Ketner to turn
in their record books before January
1. 1941. in order to be eligible for
?he TVA phosphate allotments.
There are 61 such demonstration
farmers in the county, each one
keeping a record book of all receipts
and costs for every farming activity
and operation during the past year.
By this method an accurate check
can be made on the profitableness of
farming.
Such practices have shown an act
ual good benefit for these fanners ;
during the past year. During 1931 >
only 33 farmers were keeping record '
books Their records showed such
clear cut profit? ?h?t the plan was
adopted by 33 others who. with the
exception of one or two who dropped
out. brought the 1939 number of
demonstration farmers up to 61.
Meetings were held in Peachtree.
Martins Creek and Maggie's Chapel
communities for the benefit of area
demonstration farmers in the var
ious watershed areas during the psrst
week. Progress reports were made
out at these meetings and filed with
the county agent in order that each
of these persons would be eligible to
receive the phosphate under the new
year plan.
Many of those who were unable
or for imv reason failed to attend
these meetings, were advised by Mr.
Ketner to file his report at the coun
ty agent's office in time to be elig
ible for the phosphate.
