Ga., April 9, 1926. State Bureau of Markets, State Capitol, Atlanta, 'Georgia. Dear Sirs: I am a subscriber to the Market Bulletin. It has done the farming class of people more good than all the other stuff the Government has ever put out. I see you score the men some time. How about the Women's Department. It seems to me there is need for scoring these also. If you would give us a raking down some of us would be more careful how we treated others. I have ordered flowers from several different ladies. Some came packed nicely in damp moss or other suitable packing material and they always arrive in good shape. Others come with papers plastered to them, and the flowers merely dropped in a box, and when they stay in the mail several days they are completely dried up. You may write the latter shippers all you want about such packing, and they won't answer at all. Yours truly, Mrs. J. R. Tippins. These remarks are timely and every one should study them. Tender plants must be properly packed to insure safe delivery. Courtesy also demands reply to a customer's inquiry or com plaint. iB, Ga*, Et $, April 18, State Bureau of Markets, State Capitol, Atlanta, Georgia. Dear Sirs: I feel that I should write you of my success in selling the lot of peas I had put in the Bulletin which came out on the 8th of April. I have sold them all. Had orders for $152.00 worth since I sold out. So I thank the Bulletin for its help. It is the only paper printed I know of that is any help to the poor farmer. Yours truly, C. H. Hudson Address all mail to STATE BUREAU OF MARKETS, State Capitol, Atlanta, Georgia Prices below are those 'which wholesalers were paying. F. Q.

Page 9 Humor 'Round The Barn When we were children living on the farm, one of the five boys in the family (who was about five years old at the time) was absolutely unpredictable as far as knowing how he would answer a question. One Sunday we all went to a camp meeting and an aunt was questioning him about the "washhole". This was the hole down at the creek where all the boys went swimming, only in their birthday suits, and the girls couldn't go. When she asked him how deep it was, he studied for a while and came up with an answer we never heard of: "It comes up to where my legs stop!" Mrs. W. T. Kelley Route 2 McDonough, Georgia 30253 As a young boy on a farm, my father used to take several eggs from the hen house now and then and trade them for candy at the local store. All went undiscovered until one day his mom gathered the eggs before he got to them. Not to be undone, he took his eggs from the basket on the kitchen table and went for his candy. He may have gotten away with his egg-swappin' for some time, except for one thing ... the eggs from the basket were soon discovered by the store owner to be boiled! Mrs. S. A. Manning 2294 Kings Point Drive Chamblee, Georgia 30341 A "Receet" for washing clothes that a Missouri grandmother gave a new bride: 1. Build a fire in back yard to heet kettle of rainwater. 2. Set tubs so smoke won't blow in eyes if wind is pert. 3. Shave one hole cake of lye soap in bilin' water. 4. Sort things. Make three piles-one pile white, one pile cullard, one pile work britches and rags. 5. Stir flour in water, smooth, then thin down with bilin' water to make starch. 6. Rub dirty spots on board, scrub hard, then bile. Rub cullard, but don't bile, just rench in starch. 7. Take white things out of kettle with old broom stick handle, then rench, blew (blue) and starch. 8. Spread tee towels on grass. 9. Hang old rags on fence. 10. Pour rench water on flour beds. 11. Scrub porch with hot soapy water. 12. Turn tubs upside down. 13. Go put on clean dress, smooth hair with side combs, brew a cup of tee. Set and rest or rock a spell and count your blessings.

FARMERS & CONSU ERS Market Bulletin Georgia Department of Agriculture Tommy Irvin, Commissioner Volume 60 !'ommy /rvill Age Should Mean Wisdom, Progress Americans are prone to generalize. Everyone seems to envy the young just because of the youth. Or to revyre the old only because of its age. Young can mean energetic, beautiful, innocent and bright, but if the energies are misdirected, the beauty is distorted, and the brightness is blinded, there is no cause for envy. Accordingly, age can mean progress, experience, wisdom and maturity. But, if there has been no progress, experience is wasted, and senility has replaced wisdom and maturity, then there is no cause for reverence. It is with these thoughts that I point with pride to the I OOth birthday of the Georgia Department of Agriculture. As the first active Department of Agriculture in the United States, this Department has experienced some real growing pains. There was opposition to the Department from the start. But the energies of its youth or the brightness of its ideal were not misdirected or squelched. Quite the contrary, it was young and energetic and therefore able to overcome its opposition by proving its merit. It became a necessity as the problems that beset the farmers of the 1800's were growing increasingly complex and of too great a scope to be dealt with individually. The Georgia Department of Agriculture has continued from those early days in the late 1800's to progress, to lead and to fill the needs of those it serves. Many of its innovations have been copied by the other Departments of Agriculture and have even served as guidelines for the United States Department of Agriculture. It has grown not just bigger, but better. Through experience, its services have not only expanded but have improved. The wisdom of its years has helped Georgia farmers through the turbulance of the boll weevil, depression and war into diversity and mechanization. The Department through its history has fostered competition, honesty and progress. And yet, it has maintained much of its youthful energies and has not grown stodgy but remained receptive to . new ways and ideas. It is for this reason that I point with pride to the I OOth Anniversary of the Georgia Department of Agriculture. I am most honored and humbled to be the 14th man to serve as Commissioner of this great, old Department. We who are now, at this historic time, a part of this Department will continue to work for the progress of Georgia agriculture and the protection of the Georgia con- lillmer. Wednesday, February 13, 1974 Number 7 Valentine's day is a time when we all are looking for a unique way to express feelings of affection. As the Georgia Department of Agriculture approaches its 1OOth anniversary it is perhaps appropriate for us to recall how messages of love were sent a century ago. Flowers have always been symbolic of love and friendship but for centuries they have had other meanings as well. In times when emotions were inhibited by social mores, to speak of love and affection was unthinkable. Consequently a complicated system of floral symbols was contrived to convey the stirrings of the heart. The "alphabet of angels" offered a unique language of unspoken words, which if written would probably have shocked .the petals off the vine. In our day of less restraint with feelings and emotions, such a system is unnecessary and burdensome but a certain amount of genteel affection can be rekindled by giving the right flower to the right person. Jasmine ... "I attach myself to you", "Our love will be sweet". Jonquil ... "I hope you feel the same way about me that I feel for you". Lady's Slipper ... "Win me and wear me" (in other words, catch me if you can!) Crocuses ... "Don't make light of my love." Marigold ... "What is the matter?" "Vulgar Mind". Buttercup ... "You are radiant with charms." Zinnias ... "You have the affection of a distant lover." Rose ... "Thou art all that's lovely." (The color of the rose is also important: red - passionate love; yellow- filial love; whiteworshipful love.) Narcissus ... "You are conceited and in love with yourself." Iris ... "You are the treasure at the end of the rainbow." Lily ... "Pure and flawless beauty." Lilac ... "Do you still love me?" Anemone ... "Go away." Geranium ... "You are childish." Poppy ... "My dreams are of you." Camellia ... "I shall love you always." J.OO Years Old War Produces Need For !sf Jig Deparfmenf The years immediately following the War Between the States were turbulent ones for Georgia agriculture. One area of particular concern was the various agreements and sharing systems which were in effect on Georgia farms: sharec- roppers, renting, tenant farming. In 1872 the Georgia Supreme Birthday Party Held At Capitol Court rendered a decision clarifying sharecropping and renting which inevitably created more havoc by freeing the renter of any obligation to the landowner. This caused con- The Georgia Department of Agriculture, the oldest State Department of Agriculture in the nation, will observe its 1OOth birthday with elaborate ceremonies in the State Capitol on Thursday, Feb. 14. A proclamation by Gov. Jimmy Carter and a resolution by Chairman of the House Agriculture Committee Dorsey Matthews will be presented at a joint session of the General Assembly to mark observance of the centennial. Following the joint session of the Senate and House the program will be concluded with hoop-skirted beauties serving cake and punch in the Capitol rotunda to an anticipated crowd of 1,000. siderable decadence on Georgia farms as they were not tended and improved properly. There existed at this time a State Horticultural Society which was active in all areas of Georgia farming. This Horticultural Society was backed by many farmers in its efforts to change the farming structure as it existed in Georgia in the late 1800's. As a result a vigorous campaign was waged to establish under law the first legally established State Department of Agriculture. At least one other state at this time had an existing Board of Agriculture (Mass.) but no state had a legally constituted department which was concerned p r i m a r i Iy w it h fa r m in g o r agricultural problems.
