THE HAYNER DISTILLING CO
Texas is generally looked upon as a great
cotton state.. her people are engaged in
many other Hues of agriculture quite ex
tensively. The bee keepers of Texas meet
in annual session and that industry te one
of considerable revenue. However, the
Texas peach growers are not likely ever
to be able to compete with our Georgia
growertan the eastern markets on ac
count of freight rates, but will within
the next few yenrt make It interesting
for our growers in all western markets.
Just haw much the business can stand
before it is overtone will be a hard qum
tien to answer, bat it wiO bb nettled as
all such problems are. When-the business
ccaaee to be remanerattve production will
be curtailed. There la just now no indus
try receiving more attention at the hands
of southern fruit growers than the tfsbeh.

In the country in which the reparation*

how successfully ♦ large number of Boers
caa melt away In an almost incredibly
short ttme. It is presumed that the burgh

than usual, will ft* alarmed by their ex
