Special to The Georgian.
Chattanooga, Tenn., March 28.—Indl
cations from all over the South show
that prospects for a fine fruit crop are
very flattering. Only one thing has
affected the fruit and vegetable crops
In Florida, and that is the drought.
The strawberry crop at Cuba, Ala., has
been cut short to about one-third a
crop, on account of winter blooming.
At Austell, Calhoun and Menlo, Ga.,
the prospects for a fine peach crop
are good. The peach trees are In full
bloom. Prospects for a fine crop of
>'melons and cabbage at Meridian, Miss.,
are fine. In this section nothing but a
freeze can allay the Jubilant feeling of
the growers over the prospect* for a
good crop of strawberries and peaches.

bllng In stocks.
He urged business men to decline to
recognize men who make money In
Wull street and render no value for It.
"A few gamblers In Wall street are
In trouble," said Mr. Carnegie. "If a
man has sold stocks short and they go
down, lie Is delighted. But If they go
the other way, and has not the stocks
to deliver, he thinks the president has
gone a trifle too far. It Is a good thing
for the country that the gamblers have
come to grief. 1 wish I could invent a
system or a plan whereby both sides
of the stock gamblers would come to
grief.
’’Wall street Is not all of America and
there are some places In New York,
even, that are r\ot Wall street. The
speculators are parasites feeding upon
valued and creating none. It is time
that wc business men should rise and
decline to recognize men who make
money In this way and render no value
for It and give nothing—or manufac
ture nothing—or exchange In no way a
value for what they get."
